Insurance nightmares creating confusion

A DEVASTING fire ripped through the Murwillumbah Cricket Clubhouse at Rabjones Oval at Elizabeth Street on Tuesday, June 20, leaving members distraught after only recently recoverying from the Tweed flood.

Tweed Heads Firefighters, Hazmat and firefighters from Murwillumbah Fire Station were called to the building fire at around 11:30pm.

Upon their arrival, the firefighters found the building engulfed by flames and were quick to respond.

The building was the dressing shed/change rooms at the sports field and was also storing a range of cricket equipment valued in the thousands of dollars.

“Crews attacked the fire and protected another nearby building but were unable to save the building and it was destroyed by fire,” Firefighters said via social media.

“Crews were in attendance for around two hours completing the extinguishment, salvage and overhaul.”

Police and forensic investigators were at the scene on Wednesday morning along with Murwillumbah Cricket Club president Steve Twohill and vice president Troy Godbee.

Mr Twohill told The Weekly he was “devastated” seeing the shed almost completely demolished by fire, but he’s

confident the club will bounce back.

“Council has insurance for the building and the club also has insurance, so it’s just a matter of going through the processes and getting the club back on its feet,” he said.

Mr Twohill said he’d also stored several cricket-pitch covers inside the building valued at $3500 each.

The fire comes more than two months after one of the worst floods in Tweed’s history also bowled over the clubhouse.

“It was shock especially after we’d just come back from the floods, which inundated the clubhouse and we’d only just got back to normal.”

Although all possible causes, including arson, have not been ruled out, police were continuing investigations.

Members of the Murwillumbah Vulcans AFL, the Murwillumbah Football Club and Murwillumbah Cricket Club woke to the news that the change rooms and storage facilities they relied on at John Rabjones Oval/Les Cave Oval had been destroyed by a suspicious fire overnight.

Thankfully, the canteen, toilets and cricket clubhouse next door were undamaged.

The Council building - which is insured - was so badly damaged it will need to be demolished and re-built.

should discuss the issue with their insurer.

“They can also lodge an internal dispute, if they remain dissatisfied, they can take their complaint to the free and independent Financial Ombudsman Service (www.fos.org. au),” he said.

“For information on dispute resolution visit http:// understandinsurance.com.au/resolving-disputes.

Policyholders seeking guidance can also call the ICA’s catastrophe hotline on 1800 734 621.”

Mr Fuller said that although ICA does not have total claim figures for the Tweed Shire, more than 56,000 claims were lodged because of Tropical Cyclone Debbie and its aftermath.

“The aftermath produced insured losses of $988 million from more than 56,000 claims across Queensland and New South Wales,” he said.

The Weekly asked whether there were any insurance companies that cover flood regardless of premiums.

“Significant parts of the Tweed Valley are exposed to flooding. Local residents and businesses should consider purchasing a policy that includes cover for flooding so they are financially protected the next time flooding occurs,” Mr Fuller said.

“Anyone wanting information about their property’s flood exposure should contact their local (Tweed Shire) Council.

“Insurance is priced according to risk. Properties with greater exposure to natural hazards, such as floods and bushfires, will typically pay a higher premium.

“Though policyholders may be able to secure a reduced premium by shopping around, opting for a higher excess or bundling several policies with the one insurer, the only sustainable way to lower premiums is to reduce the risk.

“In many parts of Australia, governments have been able to protect flood-exposed communities through investments in permanent, well-maintained mitigation such as levees and improved drainage.

“When mitigation is undertaken and lowers the risks to properties, insurers respond through reductions in premiums.

“The completion of a flood levee around the Queensland town of Roma in 2014 resulted in insurance premiums for newly protected residents falling between 70 and 90 per cent in some instances.

INSURANCE CLAIMS continue to cause widespread headaches for Tweed residents and businesses impacted by the March flood with some claimants concerned they are missing out on vital support.

The Weekly has spoken to three individual cases since the floods where neighbours, both holding similar policies without flood cover, have seen one rejected by their insurance company whilst their neighbour was approved.

One resident, who preferred not to be named, said his neighbour was insured by NRMA and was covered regardless of whether he had flood cover or not.

“I’ve seen my neighbour’s policy and he does not have flood cover, or any premiums,” he said.

“But our insurer said they had the hydrologist and found the damage to be from flood related inundation and we had no coverage whatsoever,” he said.

“Someone needs to investigate why insurers are paying some homes, selectively and some not.”

The Weekly took several concerns and questions to the Insurance Council of Australia (ICA) including why some insurance companies cover flood damaged homes, while others do not (especially in cases with the homes next door to one another)?

ICA’s General Manager of Communications and Media Relations Campbell Fuller said insurers cover flood damage in cases where the occupants have purchased a policy that covers flooding.

“Insurance to cover flood damage is available to all homes and businesses, and more than 96 per cent of household insurance policies purchased include cover for flooding under the Federal Government’s standard definition,” Mr Fuller said.

“In cases where a household or business has purchased a policy that excludes flood cover, insurance companies sometimes use independent hydrologists to determine where the water that damaged the property has come from.

“Insurers use this information to decide whether a claim can be covered. Though all insurance policies use the Federal Government’s standard definition of flooding, it is up to each company to determine whether it believes a claim can be fully or partially covered under the terms of the policy.”

Mr Fuller said if policyholders have concerns about the assessment of their claim, including any expert reports, they

Dangerous drivers increasing

The behaviour of motorists on Tweed Valley Way between Chinderah and Murwillumbah is of great concern.

I drive this route several times a week and each time I observe dangerous practices by motorists that put every road user at risk.

Returning to Murwillumbah on Thursday, June 15, I exited the roundabout at Melaleuca Station in the right-hand lane and was about to move to the left lane when three cars behind decided they could not wait and moved from the right lane to overtake me in the left lane.

They were well in excess of the 60km/h speed limit. The first vehicle was barely past me when the second vehicle went by then veered to the right in front of me, narrowly missing my vehicle.

This person then exceeded the speed limit along Oaks Avenue only to be impeded by a slower vehicle on the single lane section.

A dangerous manoeuvre that was completely unnecessary. I have clear vision of this vehicle on my dash cam.

Another dangerous situation on the single lane sections of this road is the constant tailgating.

This occurs when you are driving at the speed limit and is worse when you drop your speed below the speed limit in the wet.

The road needs continual police monitoring and our local member needs to ensure that we have police numbers to allow this to happen.

The placing of the mobile speed camera along Oaks Avenue would also go a long way to deter the speeding that is prevalent along this section of Tweed Valley Way. Gerry Matthews, Kielvale

James Cooper says (in part) “There are 6,000 residents of ‘Kingscliff’ say 66 per cent signed the petition, leaving 10,000 outsider signatures”.

This raises two issues.

Firstly - If 66 per cent of Kingscliff residents signed a petition calling for a three-storey height limit then that should be the end of the matter!

Secondly - If 10,000 “outsiders” who are already visiting Kingscliff prefer a three-story height limit, then we ignore them at our peril.

Abbott’s gone too rogue

It is a shame that Tony Abbott and a handful of right wing climate deniers in the Liberal Party are holding the country to ransom regarding renewable energy policy and refuse to act in the national interest.

We seem to get a daily warning from Mr Abbott on a variety of issues. This is the same man who said on Sky News, July 15, 2009 “If you want to put a price on carbon why not just do it with a simple tax,” he said.

“Why not ask motorists to pay more?

“Why not ask electricity consumers to pay more?

“It would be burdensome but all taxes are burdensome”.

Then on July 24, 2009 Mr Abbott wrote a leader column in The Australian supporting Mr Rudd’s ETS stating an ETS “Is a plausible means to limit carbon emissions”.

The hypocrisy of this man has no bounds.

Ray Armstrong, Tweed Heads South

Don’t abandon base power sources

If coal and gas do not form some part of keeping our electricity price down, and keeping industry running, we run the risk of bankrupting ourselves for the sake of reducing greenhouse emissions that only form 1.8 per cent or less of the global total. How clever is that?

Jim Berting, Murwillumbah

Steps to remove Council prayer welcomed

At Thursday’s Tweed Shire Council meeting the Deputy Mayor, Chris Cherry made an important step towards removing the Christian prayer from Council proceedings by stating that it is not required to stand for the prayer.

It was encouraging to note that a number of Councillors and others remained seated for the prayer as a

display of support.

We have requested that a motion be raised by Mayor Milne for the next meeting (July) to enable all Councillors to vote on the removal of the Christian prayer from Council meetings.

This is an outdated ritual in our completely secular country where constitutionally we are required to separate ‘church and state’.

Councilors should not lend their power and prestige to any chosen religion, this amounts to a Council endorsement that excludes over one half of the population —today well over a half of adult Australians is non-religious and one third follow another faith.

Even the Jesus of the New Testament condemned public prayer: “Enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut the door, pray to thy Father which is in secret” (Matthew 6:5-13).

If Council will not resolve this issue, we will be calling on them to include as a part of their opening meeting prayer ritual all Tweed Shire religious groups such as, Islam, Hindu, Buddhist, Sikhs, Jews, Krishna, Sai Baba, Baha’I and the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster or Pastafarionism.

Andrew Bennett, Murwillumbah

More clarity on Category C Funding for Small Business

On behalf of the Murwillumbah and District Business Chamber, I would like to clarify the Grant Application process for small businesses.

The purpose of Category C funding is to provide grants to small businesses that have suffered direct damage as a result of the March 2017 floods. The grant is up to $15,000 and is for clean up, removal of debris and restoration to assist businesses to continue or recommence trading.

The grant is funded jointly by the Commonwealth and NSW Governments.

The Rural Assistance Authority is processing the grant applications on a case by case basis. Many businesses have already received their grant funding, which is fantastic news.

There is a misconception among some that the $15,000 has to be spent by the business owner before they can submit a claim. This is not the case. Business owners need to submit a tax invoice with their application, but this invoice can be pain or unpaid. All tax invoices submitted need to be dated after the flood occurred.

Many suppliers of goods and services have been very generous offering flood affected businesses extended payment plans on invoices so that businesses can receive their grant funding before the invoices are due for payment. The RAA will also approve quotes in principle over the phone, but the application must include a tax invoice.

The staff at the Rural Assistance Authority are very helpful. Their contact number to discuss your situation is 1800 678 593 or 02 6391 3000. The RAA web site is www.raa. nsw.gov.au To access grant funds, business owners must lodge their application with the Authority on or before October 13, 2017.

Please contact the RAA if you haven’t already submitted your application. The grant may not cover all losses, but it has given many businesses the physical and emotional support they have needed to get back on their feet.

Helen Stubbin, Vice President Murwillumbah & District Business Chamber

Wire and cyclists don’t mix and what of the speed limit

Tweed Shire Council is apparently seeking funding to construct more wire rope medium strips along Tweed Valley Way, this time between Condong and Tumbulgum.

Such wire strips have already been constructed to separate northbound and southbound traffic along Tweed Valley Way between Tumbulgum and the Cudgen Road intersection.

While these wire divides make the roads safer for motorists they make bicycle riding more dangerous.

Unless there are well constructed and maintained verges for cyclists to use, cars and trucks tend to come too close to cyclists in order to overtake them.

On the existing section of wire rope median strip there are sections of road with virtually no verges and other sections where the verges are in very poor condition.

If Council goes ahead with the construction of more wire medium strips then it should be mindful of the needs of cyclists and construct wide verges that can be used as cycle lanes.

These verges should also be well maintained.

As a further safety measure the speed limit should be reduced to 80 km per hour.

Chris Goudkamp, Murwillumbah

Stop and smell the roses as people get from A to B

Like Susan Powell (TVW June 15), I too am alarmed that Ian Pratt (TVW June 8) was pulled over by police on the M1 and told he was driving too slow at 85km/h.

I am also alarmed at Lesley Watt’s (TVW June 15) intolerant attitude toward drivers who don’t drive at 110km/h.

There could be a myriad of reasonable reasons why a person may not feel confident driving at the maximum 110km/h at certain times.

Would Lesley Watt recommend that at these times, drivers should drive at the maximum speed no matter what and put their lives and the lives of others at risk?

We are all human, Lesley Watt.

We all have our good and bad days.

There are some days when I don’t feel as alert as I normally do, but life has to go on, and I have to get from A to B on the M1.

There is no way I am going to drive at 110km/h just because it is the maximum speed allowable. I don’t believe for a moment that someone driving at 85km/h in the left lane is causing congestion.

Perhaps it’s time to stop and smell the roses, Lesley Watt, instead of speeding through life at 110km/h.

Denise Anderson, Murwillumbah

A couple of deep breathes will help the driving pains easesWhen I first read Lesley

Watt’s letter re Mr Pratt’s travelling at a reasonable 85 km in the left lane of the motorway, I thought: “Not to worry. She’s probably so hypertensive she’s likely to stop driving soon, and we won’t have to worry about her dangerously impatient presence on our roads any longer.”

But then I thought that wasn’t very kind.

Possibly she is one of that proportion of spoilt young things brought up with no restrictions on their behaviour, no practice in self restraint and a strong sense of entitlement.

So it’s not really her fault. I recommend she takes a few deep breaths, tries to relax a bit and, if she can, develops some tolerance towards her fellow human beings.

With a little introspection, she may discover she has as many irritating foibles as the rest of us.

Budget 2017/18: New Tweed hospital public only Tweed Budget highlights THE STATE Government 2017/18 Budget has been labelled a win for the Tweed Shire by member for Tweed Geoff Provest MP and Lismore MP Thomas George, who were busy spruiking the Budget across the Northern Rivers following its release on Tuesday, June 20.

The biggest wins are the possibility of a new school at Kingscliff, pending a community consultation, and $2.5 million to begin investigations into a new Tweed hospital greenfield site.

However in a media statement, NSW Labor Shadow Minister for Health Walt Secord labelled the budget hospital plan for the Tweed as a “cruel hoax” and said it fell short of Tweed Shire’s needs and expectations to address future growth in the shire.

“The Liberals and Nationals are spending more on a tunnel for Sydney’s northern beaches than they are spending in this year’s budget on hospital upgrades,” Mr Secord said in a media statement on Tuesday.

“This is a cruel and mean hoax on the doctors, nurses, allied health professionals and patients who expected a detailed announcement on the Tweed Hospital.

“We discover it is a cruel hoax and a cruel deception on the North Coast and the families and patients of the Tweed.”

However, Mr Provest said Mr Secord’s statements were both “false and misleading”.

“I can assure Tweed residents that the funds allocated in this budget are in order to work with the clinicians to develop a critical health plan, prior to building the hospital,” he said.

“It’s vital we have this conversation and engage with the clinicians who know what’s needed.”

Mr Secord also claimed the new Tweed hospital had a deadline of “2025”, but Mr Provest was quick to offer a guarantee of a four to five-year timetable for the hospital’s completion.

“I can guarantee we will have the hospital done in four to five years,” he said.

The Weekly researched current and recent hospital constructions costs across NSW including Sydney and in Queensland and found that the half a billion budget could fall short of a Tweed hospital containing more than 450 beds.

Several hospitals were also found to blow out their initial budget estimates and in some cases the cost of a new hospital was more than $2 million per bed.

Mr Provest said that was incorrect and that the cost on the Tweed would be around $1 million per bed, the State Government has committed $534 million to build the new

hospital.

He also slammed suggestions the new Tweed hospital would be a public/private model.

“I can tell Tweed residents that the greenfield Tweed hospital will be a public only site and there’s no plan for a public/ private model,” he said.

“We’re pretty confident we will have a plan in place during the next six to ten months that will outline the site and plans in greater detail.”

Meanwhile, Mr George MP has also offered some assurances that the Murwillumbah Hospital will remain despite a new hospital at Tweed, stating that it “remains an important asset”.

“I’m supportive of the Murwillumbah Hospital, to me it’s a very important asset and I’ve had no discussions that the greenfield site at Tweed will have any impact on the Murwillumbah Hospital,” he said.

Mr George said the budget offered “record levels of investment in social infrastructure such as hospitals and schools, laying the foundations for communities across NSW to flourish”.

The NSW Budget 2017-18 shows New South Wales is expected to record a surplus of $4.5 billion in 2016-17, with a surplus of $2.7 billion forecast for 2017-18 and average surpluses of $2.0 billion forecast over the four years to 2020-21.

The Far North Coast community will benefit from roundthe-clock availability of the NSW Ambulance helicopters located at the Lismore base, thanks to funding for an additional doctor and paramedic.

“This funding will be used to recruit an additional medical team of doctor and paramedic for our helicopter base to operate 24/7,” Mr George said.

Funds have been allocated to develop and improve the educational offering for local high school students in Lismore and Murwillumbah.

The project part of the NSW Government’s record commitment to education across the state, which will see a record $4.2 billion invested into new and existing school projects over the next four years.

“I look forward to working with the school communities to ensure we are providing the best learning opportunities for local students.”

YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe the budget delivers for the Tweed Shire? Send us your letters and thoughts to editor@ theweekly.net.au

$100 million refurbishment of two Tweed Heads schools and one Kingscliff school. $20-$30 million for a new Kingscliff school pending community consultation plan. $20 million Tweed Heads public/private housing development. $2.5 million to establish the Critical Health Plan for the greenfield Tweed hospital site. $1 million to be used to upgrade two cycleways at Tweed Anchorage and Kingscliff. $100 to each child enrolled in a sport. The State Government will trial a program that gives families a $100 rebate for all schoolaged children to increase participation in sport. $5.514 million to Lismore, Tweed, Tenterfield and Kyogle councils for local road maintenance. $3 million for the replacement of Korns Crossing Bridge, Murwillumbah Queensland Border Road. $1.487 million social housing upgrades. $2.93 million community transport.

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Intellectual property battles – the times are a-changing

Tweed Day Surgery and Specialist Centre leads the way in local health

Where once intellectual property rights were considered sacrosanct, a couple of recent legal decisions indicate the ground is shifting in some areas of the law.

It was recently reported around the world that the dispute panel of the World Trade Organisation had ruled that Australia’s plain packaging laws for cigarettes were a legitimate public health measure and did not constitute an illegal barrier to trade.

The WTO ruling is not expected to be published until July, but it follows other setbacks for international tobacco giants seeking to take legal action against Australia for impinging on their trademark intellectual property rights.

Tony Mitchell of Stacks Law Firm said the leak of the WTO decision as reported by the Bloomberg news agency was a significant victory for Australia, and affirms the right of governments to take action for the wellbeing of their citizens, even though they may impinge on intellectual property rights.

The tobacco companies had argued that plain packaging laws were an infringement of their IP rights. Australia’s action in imposing plain packaging and graphic cancer warnings on cigarette packets was a world first in overturning IP brand rights.

The rulings open the door for more countries to follow Australia’s lead in imposing plain packaging on tobacco products.

“This decision, along with other adverse rulings in international jurisdictions on tobacco packaging, points to a shift in the security of intellectual property rights that could have an impact beyond Big Tobacco,” Mr Mitchell said.

The Tweed Day Surgery is a local leader in health care services and is here to stay

TWEED DAY Surgery and Specialist Centre (TDSSC) on Boyd Street, remains a leader in local health care by providing state-of-the-art facilities in the heart of Tweed Heads.

Established in 1995, the TDSSC has contributed to the provision of high quality clinical care along with a warm and caring environment for patients from the southern end of the Gold Coast to Northern NSW. With a burgeoning ageing population, the expert medical services available at the TDSSC are essential for residents of the Tweed Shire to maintain optimum health as they age.

The centre is well-known for its five-star, all-in-one health care policy and proudly provides a quality workplace for doctors, surgeons, nurses and numerous support staff.

The extensive experience of each health care team ensures modern and well-equipped facilities to the highest safety standards, enabling specialists to focus exclusively on their patients.

Long-standing tenants of the TDSSC include Tweed Day Surgery, the Tweed Skin Cancer Cinic, South Coast Radiology, Southern Sun Pathology, Eyes Gold Coast, Sullivan Nicollaides Pathology and several private consulting rooms of visiting specialists from the local area.

The various medical businesses all combined within the same building provide a very useful and convenient array of services for Tweed and North Coast residents.

Many of the businesses, including the Tweed Skin Cancer Clinic are open on Saturdays for those who cannot make it

during the week, with ample parking available.

The building is not only a leader in the wide range of medical services available, but it has become one of the greenest commercial developments on the Gold Coast/ Tweed.

Chairman for the Owner’s Corporation Dr Glen Parker said many sustainable changes have been made to the building over the past few years.

“We have installed new low energy plant and equipment in and around the building, which will set a very high standard for sustainability for the future,” he said.

“We have utilised the very large roof space in the building and installed 60 KW of solar panels, which supply power to all common areas and some suites.

“We have also replaced all internal and external lights with low voltage LED fittings, as well as installed new low energy commercial air conditioning systems for all suites. “The building has really had a makeover.

“Aside from staying energy conscious, the savings we have seen are dramatic.

“The commercial sector on the Gold Coast is not renowned for its ‘greenness’ but we are showing the way with these changes, and owners and tenants are reaping the rewards.”

“I imagine there would be little public support for the right of tobacco giants to sell their product in attractive packaging, but there could be concern that this could lead to the overturning of other IP rights in the name of the public good.”

A recent decision on use of the word “champagne” adds to this shift. The champagne region of France has strongly enforced its intellectual property right to the word “champagne” for decades. Its trade association took legal action against anyone else who used it, and nearly always won.

But after a five year battle, the Australian Federal Court ruled in her favour, allowing her to register “Champagne Jayne” as her trade mark.

Telstra reveals plans to improve mobile coverage across Shire

Murwillumbah East

Public School Be Safe

WORKS WILL begin soon to improve mobile phone coverage across the Tweed during the next 12 months, as Telstra works with the Federal Government to reduce mobile black spots.

The Weekly recently caught up with Telstra Area General Manager Mike Marom, who addressed questions around Telstra’s Black Spot Program and future plans for Tweed Heads.

Telstra currently has two base station towers that are yet to be erected at Burringbar and Chillingham, after the company completed a mobile tower at Farrants Hill earlier this year.

“We have already delivered new mobile coverage to a number of sites in the Tweed, including Farrants Hill and Kunghur and we expect to provide 3G and 4G coverage to Burringbar in the next few months,” he said.

“We also have plans to soon deliver 4G services to Chillingham via an innovative small cell.”

Mr Marom acknowledged the need to improve mobile coverage for rural

communities including areas that have long suffered from a lack of mobile coverage.

“We know that increased mobile coverage is important for people in rural and regional Australia and we have a strong commitment and a clear plan to deliver that for them,” he said.

“Telstra is delivering new mobile coverage to 577 locations nationally, including 119 locations in NSW, under the Federal Government’s Mobile Black Spot Program, generating $490 million worth of coinvestment in rural and regional Australia.”

Mr Marom also revealed plans for Tweed Heads and Coolangatta to move to 4G, which is one of the fastest mobile connections available.

“Outside of the Mobile Black Spots Program, Telstra also has plans to increase our 4G coverage in Tweed Heads and Coolangatta area in the next 12 months,” he said.

Special Energy Crisis Feature - Part 1

Advertisement

Power Prices Going Up 16% to 20% in July

The three biggest energy retailers in NSW announced they will be increasing electricity prices by 16 to 19.9% on the 1st of July 2017.

Some experts are predicting 40-50% increases in power costs over the next three years.

Electricity prices have doubled in the past five years because the Federal Government deliberately created uncertainty about energy and climate policy. Investment in new power plants and renewable energy has stalled, while transmission and distribution networks over-invested in poles and wires, charging consumers a premium on the value of their excessive investments, that now make up half of the charges on electricity bills.

Coal and Gas Corporations made huge donations to political parties, lobbying politicians to do nothing while they manipulated and doubled the wholesale spot prices for electricity in the Australian Electricity Market. Households and businesses are now bearing the burden for this massive failure in leadership to provide low cost, clean energy.

Vincent Selleck is the Managing Director of 888 Solar Tek, dedicated to helping households and businesses defend against the high cost of electricity, with strategies and solutions using the latest solar technology available today.

Take Back Your Power!

With Feed in Tariffs now ridiculously low, storing solar power in batteries is now much cheaper than the grid. 6-12 cents per kWh it is not a fair price to export power when you have to buy your energy back later for more than 30 cents. Solar Power Battery Storage is one of the best ways to beat the unfair electricity network and create energy independence today.

888 Solar Tek is local, family owned solar company based in the Northern Rivers, providing revolutionary new technology that slashes the cost of battery storage.

Solar Power is Your Best Defence

Many people have been producing their own electricity for years, benefiting from lowcost, clean energy from the Sun. With power prices going through the roof, and solar power now cheaper than ever, there has never been a better time to invest in your own solar power system.

This special feature looks at some of the latest trends in solar energy and how you can benefit the most from generating and storing your own power.

The landscape for solar energy has changed dramatically over the last two years. High Feed In Tariffs for selling power to the grid have finished in NSW, making it more important With custom designs based on your energy use, 888 Solar Tek to use your own power rather than selling it. Instead of getting 60 cents per kWh for energy will maximise the benefits of your investment and deliver a cost effective solution for your power needs. They offer a free sent to the network, retailers make up their own prices, from zero to 12 cents per kWh in energy assessment and are delivering hybrid and off-grid power NSW. When you consider you will be paying over 33 cents per kWh from July, it becomes systems that are much cheaper than buying from the grid. vitally important to buy as little as possible by using as much of your own energy instead.

Solar Power Play Number 1

888

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.

“The best thing for people to do is to check their address on the NBN website to get the latest rollout information,” the spokesperson said.

SICK OF THE COLD?

About the NBN Co roll-out • NBN is building a new and upgraded, fast wholesale broadband network to enable communities across Australia to access fast broadband from their Retail Service Provider.

• The goal is to connect eight million homes and businesses by 2020.

• The rollout of the NBN access network sets the scene for the biggest transformation to Australia’s telecommunications industry involving Retail Service Provider network upgrades and the establishment of a network of networks to bring fast broadband to all Australians.

• Connecting to the NBN network is not automatic and is a process which may take some time and preparation. NBN is working with the service providers and industry to help them better understand who is responsible for which portions of their internet experience and what steps they can take in order to receive the best possible service.

• The speeds experienced on services over the NBN network are determined by a range of factors such as the technology used to deliver the network as well as some factors outside our control such as equipment quality, software, broadband plans, signal reception and how your service provider designs their network.

• Fast broadband such as that delivered via the NBN network, can provide a range of benefits for Australians such as opportunities to work from home.

NBN CO has updated projections for the Tweed Shire to be connected to the highly anticipated NBN Co network, which promises high speed internet but won’t be completed until March 2018.

Several residents had contacted The Weekly, including one IT expert, who said the NBN had faced several delays across the Tweed Shire and would not be completed until mid-2018.

The Weekly contact NBN Co to get an update on the rollout. A spokesperson said there were now more than 25,000 homes and businesses across the Tweed Shire that can connect to the NBN Co network.

“This includes areas such as Tweed Heads and some parts of Duranbah, Kingscliff, Clothiers Creek, Pottsville Beach, Dunbible, Murwillumbah Hill, Terranora, Zara, Chillingham and Uki,” the NBN Co spokesperson said.

“In addition, construction is underway in parts of Tweed Heads, Hastings Point, Murwillumbah, Terranora to connect more than 17,600.

“It is expected these people will be able to progressively start to order a service over the NBN network from July of this year through to March 2018.

“This includes approximately 2,700 in Murwillumbah that are expected to be able to start connecting from late September of this year. The remaining 2,000 will follow in the first quarter of next year.”

The spokesperson said the works to connect more than 7,800 homes and businesses in Kingscliff to the NBN network will begin early next year.

“It’s worth noting that some 1,800 premises across Murwillumbah and Kingscliff are set to benefit from the rollout of NBN’s Fibre-tothe-Curb technology announced last week,” the spokesperson said.

The spokesperson said the rollout of the technology at scale means there are some homes and businesses which now have a revised

Wonder Wash will return

Learn to coexist at Wild about Pottsville event

TO E O X 31 TE FFE JU ND R LY ED 20 17

TWEED SHIRE Council is hosting a special event to highlight the coast’s incredible native species and ways we can coexist with local flora and fauna during the “Wild about Pottsville” fun day at the Pottsville Marketplace on Sunday, June 25.

The free community event is funded by the NSW Environmental Trust with additional funding from Council and will open at 9am.

Council’s Natrual Resource Management Project Officer Kim Stephan said the event will be a fun, family-orientated day to highlight unique fauna species and ways the local community can help protect and coexist with local flora and fauna.

“These include the Currumbin Wildlife on Wheels show, free on-lead dog training session by Top Dog Academy and skits from Pottsville Beach Public School about threats to koalas,” Kim said.

“For the kids, there will be a visit from Kooee Koala, children’s nature activities by Pottsville’s very own Nature Explorers, a jumping castle, face painting, wildlife based

stalls and lots of prizes and giveaways.”

“Speed talks will cover topics such as the way Bundjalung people once lived around Pottsville, the Backyard Habitat for Wildlife program, Council’s new My Local Native Garden book, dogs and wildlife, and how we can help koalas and other local wildlife.

“The Lions Club will hold a sausage sizzle and special issue Wild about Pottsville calico bags will be sold for a gold coin donation. All proceeds will go to the Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers.”

There will be plenty of prizes and giveaways for participants and for those who bring their dog to the free training session.

For the early risers, the event starts with a bird walk from 7am to 8am. This will be a great opportunity to observe some of our coastal birds in their native habitats. Interested parties are asked to bring binoculars and meet at the Pottsville Beach tennis courts.

For further inquiries phone Kim Stephan at Council on (02) 6670 2419 (In the event of heavy rain Wild about Pottsville will move to the Pottsville Beach Primary School).

AFTER SEVEN weeks without trading the iconic Wonder Wash Laundry Net at 58 Wollumbin Street, will reopen in late July following massive flood damage in April plus a devastating fire in May this year.

Wonder Wash Laundry Net owner Joe Scholl has experienced an ongoing nightmare since the March flood and a fire was another kick in the guts.

But Joe was thrown a much-needed lifeline in the form of his insurance claim, which was approved recently and has allowed him the chance to book tradespeople to help the business get back on its feet.

The first claim of insurance is the building insurance, which has been approved, and second claim is for the fire which was also approved.

“We’re finally getting work started at the shop,” he said.

“We should have all new machines and a whole new shop by about July 22, although this is provided everything goes according to the building schedule and weather of course.”

Joe has been operating one of Murwillumbah’s most loved businesses for the past nine years and hopes to continue.

However, several residents were unsure whether Wonder Wash would reopen and Joe wanted to assure his customers that the business will open as soon as possible.

“I wanted everyone to know we’re opening just as soon as we get the works done and the new machines up and running,” he said.

“So, I’m hoping we get the work done as quickly as possible and we should be open in late July.”

Vietnam remembrance rider visits Tweed

VIETNAM VETERAN Rob Eade, 71, is on a threeyear journey around Australia to commemorate his fallen comrades who fought and died during the Vietnam War which for Australians was from 1962 until the war’s end in 1975.

Mr Eade (pictured) is riding his three-wheel motorcycle to towns both large and small along with his red heeler Ginger as company, and he’ll be in Murwillumbah on Monday, June 26, at 2pm.

Mr Eade is not raising any funds, instead he’s placing flags at war memorials to represent fallen soldiers including two Murwillumbah veterans who died while serving in Vietnam.

He also brings with him a powerful message of remembrance for our Vietnam Veterans, who despite living with the horrors of war remain in many ways Australia’s forgotten veterans, due to the politically charged nature of the conflict.

Travelling from Mandura in Western Australia, Mr Eade has been on the road for 12 months carrying around 600 flags.

Mr Eade served in the Australian Army as a cook during the Vietnam War in 1969 and told his local community newspaper, the Mandura Coastal Times, that he lost two “very dear friends; one was a school mate, he was shot in the thigh and bled to death”.

“The other fellow was an officer I met in the army; he was hit by a mine,” Mr Eade told the Times in June 2016 before departing.

“It was sad, but this journey is for everybody who didn’t make it home.”

Mr Eade was inspired to go on this journey after becoming aware of veteran Mike Ehredt’s travels in the USA. A marathon runner and veteran, Mr Ehredt is running across the US placing flags to honour soldiers who died during war.

Mr Eade sold all his possessions and began researching the names of every soldier who had died in conflict from Vietnam until today.

The first in Murwillumbah is Sergeant Roderick Thomas Ross Parker, who left the Tweed bound for Vietnam with the Australian Army in 1962.

According to Australian War Memorial documents, Mr Parker was killed on October 19, 1971, at the age of 27 from an “illness”.

First-home buyers to receive a much needed boost TWEED FIRST-HOME buyers are expected to benefit from the State Government’s recently announced housing affordability package which comes into effect on July 1.

First-home buyers could save up to $34,000 through stamp duty concessions and a $10,000 new home grant.

The package announced earlier this month aims to make it easier for first-home buyers to purchase a home by abolishing stamp duty for homes up to a value of $650,000 and reducing stamp duty for homes priced below $800,000.

First-home buyers that purchase a new home up to a value of $600,000 will also receive a $10,000 grant. Those who build a new home up to a value of $750,000 will also receive $10,000.

The $5,000 New Home Grant Scheme, which was available to other buyers including investors, will be abolished from July 1.

Insurance duty on lenders’ mortgage insurance will be removed for all home buyers from July, saving thousands.

For example, on a purchase valued at $800,000, a buyer with a deposit of $50,000 who needs lenders’ mortgage insurance, could save about $2,900.

Foreign investors will have to pay higher duties and land taxes. The surcharge on stamp duty paid on new purchases by foreign investors will double from four per cent to eight per cent, and the surcharge on land tax will rise from 0.75 per cent to two per cent. Foreign developers will be exempt from the increased surcharges.

Investors of any kind will no longer be able to delay paying stamp duty on off-the-plan properties for 12 months.

The State Government is hoping the new measures will increase the number of first-home buyers entering the market, with recent Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) data showing an almost record low number of first-home buyers.

In March, 2017, only eight per cent of owner occupier mortgage commitments were first-home buyers, compared to a record low of 7.5 per cent in September 2016 and almost half the long-term average of 17 per cent.

Premier Gladys Berejiklian said she wanted to ensure that owning a home was not out of reach for people in NSW. “These measures focus on supporting first home buyers with new and better-targeted grants and concessions, turbocharging housing supply to put downward pressure on prices and delivering more infrastructure to support the faster construction of new homes,” Ms Berejiklian said.

“This is a complex challenge and there is no single or overnight solution. I am confident these measures will make a difference and allow us to meet the housing challenges for our growing state.”

Minister for Planning and Housing Anthony Roberts said the package included measures to speed up planning processes to ensure developments get off the ground as quickly as possible.

“While we have done well to release an unprecedented amount of land, we need to do better with our development application process to ensure we are keeping up with demand,” Mr Roberts said.

The package contains several measures that will assist with delivering new housing supply including committing $3 billion in infrastructure funding from Government, councils

and developers to accelerate the delivery of new housing.

Approvals for well-designed terraces, townhouses, manor homes and dual occupancy will be fast-tracked by expanding complying development to include these dwelling types.

Independent panels will be utilised in Sydney and some regional areas to ensure development applications are completed efficiently, to ensure the integrity of the planning process, and measures will be made to maintain the local character of communities.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest has welcomed a comprehensive package of measures which will give firsthome buyers in Tweed a fair go at owning their own home by significantly reducing stamp duty and providing more housing choice.

Mr Provest said the reforms could save first homebuyers up to $34,360 and would now apply to both existing and new homes.

“While there are no easy solutions when it comes to housing affordability, residents who are saving to own their

own home in Tweed will benefit greatly from these reforms,” Mr Provest said.

“Stamp duty is a hurdle for first home buyers across Tweed, so to give residents a fair go we will abolish stamp duty for all first home buyers on properties costing up to $650,000 and provide stamp duty discounts on properties up to $800,000.

This means many first homebuyers will not be paying stamp duty at all in Tweed.

“These changes to stamp duty and support for new infrastructure will make regional Australia an even more attractive place for people to live, work and play.

“These are just some of the measures we are introducing to give local first homebuyers a fair go.”

$11.2 million for motor dealership property

A PROMINENT motor dealership in Tweed Heads occupied by Sharp Motor Group was sold under the hammer at a Colliers International auction for $11.2 million, on a 6.21 per cent yield.

The building will remain a Sharp Motor Group dealership with a new eight year lease already signed.

“We received ten bids from four registered bidders on the auction day, with highest bidder being a Queensland based investor,” said Kyle Youngson of Colliers International who marketed the property with his colleague Steve Clark.

“This is a record yield for this type of asset on the Gold Coast and Tweed Coast, with both buyer and seller happy with the result. It showcases Tweed Coast as a legitimate investment opportunity for buyers looking for growth areas.” 153 Wharf Street Tweed Heads offers a premium tenant in Sharp Motor Group with new car brands Kia, Honda, Holden, HSV and Suzuki in their line-up.

The property was developed in 2004 by Expo Park Properties linked to Warren von Bibra, who operated the

dealership as von Bibra Twin Towns Auto Village, prior to Sharp Motor Group taking over the business in 2011.

Mr Clark said they had interest from investors, syndicates, land bankers and small institutional buyers.

“South East Qld continues to be seen as a great value option for interstate purchasers looking for stronger yields, which is reflected in this result.”

The property has approx. 3,919sqm of building and sits on a 9,880sqm parcel of land combining new and used sales showroom, offices, servicing workshop, vehicle display yard and rooftop parking area.

Leased to Sharp Motor Group on a new eight year lease plus options it returns about $708,000 net per year after outgoings. Sharp Motor Group Dealer Principal, Stephen Howlett is also involved with prominent northern rivers dealerships Quayside Motors with locations in Lismore, South Lismore and Ballina. The property offered future development upside due to its B4 Mixed Use zoning, which allows for a mixed use high rise development up to 49.5m under the current Tweed Heads LEP.

Sun sets on Noel Graham Farm Machinery as KC Equipment take over AFTER ALMOST 30 years of hard work Noel Graham Farm Machinery has been purchased by KC Equipment this month, with an ongoing commitment to maintain the highest levels of service for the business’s longstanding and new customers.

Noel Graham Farm Machinery was owned and operated by joint owners Noel and Mary-Anne Graham and Malcolm and Debbie Byrne, who have announced their retirement although Malcolm will stay on during the transition phase of the company.

Speaking with The Weekly, Noel and Malcolm reflected on years of working side by side and said they wanted to acknowledge the staff and support from the local community.

“As the sun is now starting to set on Noel Graham Farm Machinery it is only appropriate that I sincerely thank and acknowledge the wonderful support and commitment shown towards the team and the various products sold,” Noel said.

Both Noel and Malcolm said the past 30 years of local business had included many good times with the staff and customers as well as a few tough times.

“During the early days, floods were a huge problem for the old Prospero Road site,” Malcolm said.

“I remember in 1989 we had three floods in one month, which took its toll, but we’ve also had some great times here as well including some memorable staff, some of whom were with us for 20 years.”

Both said they were planning a break during their retirement and both Mary-anne and Debbie said travel plans were definitely on the cards.

“We’ve also established some great relationships with local clubs such as the Rotary Club, Murwillumbah Show and Banana Festival, which we were proud to be a part of and support throughout the years,” Noel said.

“As a company, we were most fortunate to have developed long-standing, strong and mutually beneficial relationships with you our customer and end users. Relationships built on trust, integrity and a desire to help each other prosper.”

KC Equipment directors Russell Bryson and Justin Hunter heaped praise on the previous owners and reinforced their commitment to maintaining those relationships.

“We have had the pleasure of knowing and working alongside Noel, Mary-anne, Malcolm and Debbie and their staff for the past 20 years,” Justin said.

“As the owners of KC Equipment, myself and Justin feel very privileged to be taking over and continuing the work of Noel Graham Farm Machinery.

“We have been humbled by the support given in this transition throughout the entire process of the sale and we offer our heartfelt thanks, and our very best wishes for their new endeavours.”

KC Equipment was founded in 1987 in Yatala as an agricultural business representing brands Massey Ferguson, Iseki and Kioti. Since then the business had expanded into the Northern Rivers opening a branch in Lismore in 2007.

“Through Murwillumbah we will continue to offer and support the Massey Ferguson, Fendt, Iseki and Kubota product ranges,” Justin said.

“We are committed to offering you, our new customers, a solid product range as well as high standard of sales, service

and parts support.”

KC Equipment will also retain the current staff and location at 50-56 Quarry Road.

“You can rest assured that you will be looked after by many familiar and friendly faces as well as few new ones,” Justin said.

“In addition to introducing ourselves to you we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your ongoing support and we look forward to meeting you and continuing Noel Graham Farm Machinery’s involvement in the community.”

To find out more you can visit KC Equipment at 50-56 Quarry Road or phone (02) 6672 2555.

New bin service explained

TWEED SHIRE Council’s new three bin system will start from July 1 and here’s what you need to know.

Your green bin, if you have one already, will need to go out for collection every week and includes all your organic waste.

The red bin, which is landfill waste, and the yellow recycling bin will go out on alternating fortnights.

The new collection service applies to urban houses and duplexes only, there will be no changes for multi-unit developments (more than two units) and rural residences.

Tweed Shire Council crews have been busy during the past two months delivering new green bins, changing lids on existing green bins and delivering about 25,000 kitchen caddies to assist with organic waste collection in the home.

The new system begins on July 1 and the focus during the final two weeks of June is to ensure every urban house and duplex in Tweed Shire has a green bin, according to Council’s Waste Operations Officer, Wes Knight.

“If any single house or duplex in an urban area still needs a green bin, they can contact us to ensure there is one on its way,” Mr Knight said.

“Residents with green bins with lids that $ are yet ^ to be SAVE changed should continue to put them out on379 their green bin on average on LUXAFLEX‰ collection day.

POLYSATIN SHUTTERS “If our waste collection contractors are‰unable to complete all the lid changes by the end of June, green bins with the old lid will be treated as Organics bins when the 3 Bin System starts.”

Any enquiries about the new system, including questions about bin deliveries and lid changes, can be made by emailing Council’s Waste Unit at waste@tweed.nsw.gov.au, by phoning Council on (02) 6670 2400.

From Seattle, USA, Dr Morris has a multi-faceted career as a concert violinist, educator and film maker. He has performed and lectured around the world. As well as performing with the orchestra on his visit to Australia, he will be presenting a series

of inspiring string workshops to young students.

The programme includes some beautiful and popular string works including the Bach Double Violin Concerto in which he will be joined by talented local violinist Hugh Won.

Charity Wigs 4 Wendy day a success

A SPECIAL fundraiser took place at the Cudgen Leagues Club on Saturday, June 17.

The event was organised by Kylie Conway and Denise Singleton and involved a dinner and live music with eight people shaving their heads and/or moustaches for the Wigs 4 Wendy charity.

The ladies have so far raised a total of $17,000 for the charity, which Ms Conway said would be used to help women in the Tweed Shire gain back some confidence and

love at no cost.

“Denise Singleton was the inspiration behind the dream which is a tribute to her sister that past a year ago from cancer,” she said.

The fundraiser included local band Back to the Future and Member for Tweed Geoff Provest also attended donating $500 to the charity.

Bryon Bay Gourmet Coffee was also a big supporter along with ladies from Carve hairdressing.

Sunday races cancelled due to rain

THE MURWILLUMBAH races scheduled for Sunday, June 25, has been abandoned according to the Tweed River Jockey Club, who said the cause had been the condition of the track following continual heavy rain across the Tweed.

The Murwillumbah racing surface has received in excess of 220mm of rain in the last ten days with showers continuing over the last 48-hours (at time of print).

General Manager of the Tweed River Jockey Club Brain Charman advised that NRRA Stewards walked the racing surface on Monday morning, June 19.

“The NRRA Stewards inspected the surface following a requested special gallop to determine track rating. The track rating was well into the heavy plus range,” he said.

Mr Charman said there had been a significant amount of race meetings abandoned in recent weeks and months

due to the weather on the northern rivers which is disappointing and unfortunate for industry participants.

“Following the track inspection on Monday morning the race meeting scheduled for Murwillumbah on Sunday was in definite risk of not proceeding,” he said.

“The NRRA Stewards and Racing NSW made a decision on Monday afternoon to transfer the meeting, fully supported by the Tweed River Jockey Club in the best interests of racing, to Coffs Harbour on Sunday, June 25.”

The club is now looking forward to the new racing season and some changes of luck with the weather when Murwillumbah races again on the newly scheduled Murwillumbah Cup date on Friday, August 25.

Tweed Creative Studios comeback concert

“We have been working 17 hours a day seven days a week to build the studio bigger and better than ever.

“The Category C grant finally came through which has been an enormous help for the rebuild. However we still would like to pay back our consignees.

“A great friend mentioned the idea of a fundraiser which at first I didn’t think we deserved this because so many people have suffered due to the destruction of Cyclone Debbie but then I realised how much this business has enhanced our town in so many ways and I agreed to the Fundraiser.”

Chantal spoke to some of her musician friends and they offered to play at the fundraiser.

“We are proud to announce this fantastic once in a lifetime line-up of some of the best musicians on the coast,” she said.

“Pro music Australia has gifted a brand new white nylon string guitar which will be signed by the great musicians of the night and auctioned off.”

“We also would like to thank Michael Simmons from Mount Warning Tours who has sponsored a bus to pick up people from Bray Park, Sunnyside bus stop and the Tumbulgum boat ramp every hour from 1pm.”

The event will include a sausage sizzle by one of the local schools who also suffered from the flood.

“Lots of activities will be available including face painting for the children and even barefoot bowls,” she said.

“We have kept this event affordable so that everyone can have a great time. There are so many people to thank especially Tweed Valley Fruit Exchange and the many other businesses that have assisted us through this extremely difficult time.”

Meanwhile the studio reopens on Saturday, July 1 at 2pm.

“We will be holding an official ceremony to celebrate the reopening and thank our many volunteers,” Chantal said.

“We welcome the public to attend and view the many changes we have made to make Tweed Creative Studios a Modern Retro Music Shop with something for everyone and attracting the tourists from miles around.”

Cost is $10 pre sale or $15 at the door.

FILMS th Mia wi

THE SENSE OF AN ENDING

Indian filmmaker Ritesh Batra, whose wonderful debut feature The Lunchbox in 2013 conquered the hearts of audiences worldwide - including in our own town - has this time directed the screen adaptation of the Julian Barnes’s 2011 bestseller novel The Sense of an Ending, starring Jim Broadbent and Charlotte Rampling.

The story revolves around reminiscences of first loves, philosophical discussions between young minds, and existential questions that follow us in later stages of life. All seen through the apparently simple yet quite complicated life story of Tony Webster, an elderly ex-poet turned into vintage camera shop owner who is prompted by a letter he receives to try and understand why life has turned out the way it did. The letter, and the intriguing search down memory lane that the letter triggers, sends Tony into a single-minded obsession with resolving a relationship that played itself out decades earlier, to the point of stalking an ex-girlfriend who had otherwise most likely forgotten him altogether.

All of us with enough life experience will recognize the ambiguous feeling of curiosity and regret that memory - or the lack of it - can trigger. As one of Tony’s young friends had said at the time “history is that certainty produced at the point where the imperfections of memory meet the inadequacies of documentation”, and so we can only follow with sympathy and understanding the protagonist’s attempts to find resolution.

AN AMAZING line up of local and national musicians will perform at the Condong Bowls Club this Saturday, June 24, from 2pm in support of Tweed Creative Studios who continue to recover from the devastating impact of the Tweed flood.

Among the acts are Aussie guitar legend Phil Emmanuel, Bourbon Street and Late for Woodstock, as well as locals Lissy Stanton, Matty Rogers and Moody Dudes.

Tweed Creative Studios is located on Buchanan Street in South Murwillumbah and was set up by local musician and passionate music promoter Chantal Waters.

Chantal recently revealed the studio’s struggle getting back up and running following the flood and hopes the fundraising will help.

“In 2013 I set up Tweed Creative Studios to bring an entertainment hub to Murwillumbah and this last threeand-a-half years has been a fulfilling experience on many levels,” she said.

“Tweed Creative Studios suffered badly due to Ex-Tropical Cyclone Debbie on March 30.

“We couldn’t enter the premises until Sunday, April 2 and for three days we stood at the end of the street not knowing whether there was any damage.

“When we entered the building it was the biggest shock of my life and I totally thought we were ruined and the business was finished.”

Chantal put a call out for public support using local media and social media.

“Support started pouring in. So many local people and musicians came to help us remove the debris,” she said.

“Admittedly for the first two weeks I was in shock and had no aspiration to rebuild, I just felt it was all hopeless especially because the insurance company was and is still holding us back.

“Finally I got the courage to start again, and with the help of my good friend Jake Maloney, the community and the team at the studio we started the rebuild.

Back to the 30s for Jazz Club

THIS MONTH Tweed Valley Jazz Club presents the third of its top bands for 2017.

Delayed by the dreadful storm and flood in March/April it resumes its programme of jazz, blues and swing.

The quality music and entertainment value of the Nev Ollis band in January, the fabulous stomping blues from the exceptional Mojo Webb in February and now the sophisticated, infectious swing of Benny Goodman.

This glorious dance music is the specialty of Trevor Rippingale, Col Jones, Harry Lynn, John Edwards and Owen Smith.

In the 1930s the jazz and general music loving public were introduced to this top drawer sound.

It even crossed the boundary into Carnegie Hall.

Tweed Valley Jazz Club is particularly pleased to be able to present this outstanding show. It is music that spans all age groups. Rhythm and melody are the powerful features of the swing era which has been expanded over time but never replaced.

Storm find a way to win Have NSW wrapped it up or is the Origin still alive? I’m writing this just knowing this is going to be a much better contest. Qld have picked a much more balanced, stronger and confident team. Having JT and Billy getting dressed in there would make Qld happy and NSW a little nervous.

On the back of the magnificent first half of footy from game 1 I hope we have watched something special again. The modern day athlete is just phenomenal. I watched a game mid week 1988 preliminary final Balmain v Cronulla. Some absolute legends of the game; Elias, Sironen, Hanley and Miller, Davidson and a young ET. 30 years ago and the game was so rough, tough and hard.

They were tough men. Today’s players are also tough but they are

at the Footy with Quinny

genuine athletes. GPS systems, diets, recovery, weight training – it’s all part of Rugby League in 2017 and it’s a great product and the players deserve every bit of the 29% of revenue it generates.

The Rabbitoh’s v Titans was a bizarre game last week. Die hard Souths fans were ready to burn their jerseys after 15 mins yet they managed to get the win on the back of a stellar performance from Angus Crichton who is a Origin Blue in waiting. He was brilliant.

You would expect the storm cowboys game to be a beauty but without 9 Origin players it was always a concern.

Worry not, it was a classic and young Brodie Croft showed the benefit of a grounding in the Qld Cup against men to slot the winning field goal in extra time to sneak the Storm the victory.

They are an amazing team who just

find a way to win.

I’ve been singing the Dragons praises but they dead set look shot. I don’t think Parra were that good but they got the cash.

Well done to the 14’s and 15’s Group 18 teams for their efforts down at Foster in the Country Championships.

The 14’s making it to the final and going down narrowly to a strong Newcastle outfit. Congrats also to the parents and guardians of all these boys (and all those who play footy) to fund their passion and to support them at training and games and on trips for rep footy, club footy and school footy. Well done to all those who also volunteer to coach, manage, run water, strap, organise, man the canteen and do admin for all our super clubs in the region.

See you at the footy Quinny

Strength, discipline and control earn Alysha black belt

LOCAL TEENAGER Alysha De Lyon has earned herself one of the highest honours a person can achieve in life, a black belt in Shimjang Taekwondo on Monday, June 19, at Parish Hall Murwillumbah.

A student at Murwillumbah High School, Alysha has been training hard for the past four years refining her skills and strength to achieve this outstanding result at the age of 15.

Speaking with The Weekly, Alysha said she didn’t have an immediate urge to start training in a local martial art, but was inspired to give it a go after her parents, Amanda and Nicolas, asked their son Nick if he’d like to try.

“Dad asked if Nick wanted to go to the training at Shimjang Taekwondo in Murwillumbah, and I thought ‘why can’t I go’,” she said.

After the first few weeks, Alysha found she loved the training routine and has since grown into a dedicated student and now a black belt.

Alysha trained under fourth dan Shimjang Taekwondo master trainer Adam Watkins, who is the assistant master instructor for the Northern NSW area in Murwillumbah.

Adam started his martial arts career in the 1990s when he joined a local Hapkido School where he eventually became a

black belt instructor, Adam taught Hapkido for a short while then joined Shimjang Taekwondo.

Master Watkins was then appointed as branch instructor for the Murwillumbah Dojang.

He worked hard and soon became an outstanding instructor, in 2009 his achievements were recognised when he was awarded the World Shimjang Taekwondo Academy “Instructor of the Year”.

Adam spoke highly of Alysha’s achievement which she earned through her hard work and determination.

“We were never easy on her and we’ve been amazed by her ability and strength,” he said.

Adam said mastering a martial art comes with deep responsibilities including never using the defence to engage in fights or inflict injuries.

“We promote no contact and there’s serious repercussions for those who use the fighting art form outside of self-defence,” he said.

Alysha hopes to use her new life skill to start a self-defence course for fellow students at Murwillumbah High School, where’s she’s currently in year 10.

“I’m always trying to encourage friends to come along, it’s great fitness and once you get the routine of two nights per Proud De Lyon family after Alysha received her black belt on Monday. Photo by Katina Cram Photography

week, it’s great,” she said.

Murwillumbah Dojang has been established in the Catholic Hall since 1994 and for the past 20 years has delivered quality martial arts to the Murwillumbah area and surrounds.

Students range in age groups from five up to 60-years old with many families training together.

According to Taekwondo Academy Australia, Taekwondo is a martial art that began evolving around 1300 years ago during the Silla Dynasty in South Korea.

Taekwondo was officially named in 1955 and has since grown to become a popular Art or (depending on the style) sport that is practiced throughout the world under many different style names.

The style Shim Jang Taekwondo was founded in Australia by Grandmaster Les Hicks and began its development way back in the late 1970s. Les has been studying the art under Korean Masters for over a quarter of a century and has taught many fine instructors. All persons interested in trying Taekwondo are invited to enjoy two obligation free lessons.

Taekwondo Training times are Mondays 4.30pm-5.30pm and Thursdays 5.30pm-6.30pm. For more information phone: (02) 6672 8442.

Murwillumbah East getting great support One in seven Aussie kids now homeless “Intervening early and providing ongoing STUDENTS FROM Murwillumbah

East Primary School hosted a special “Floral Friday” (pictured below) event on Friday, June 16, with plenty of colour and fun for students.

The school hosted a special school assembly with some visitors from Westpac, Bunnings and the Murwillumbah Services Club, who presented donations to the school.

Leah from Bunnings at South Tweed visited the school and had a close look at the condition of the school’s garden, which was washed away in the Tweed flood.

Leah said she planned to return to the

school in two weeks to help the gardening team redesign and recreate the school’s vegie patch.

Rae Lohse, manager of Westpac Murwillumbah, also donated a cheque for $500 dollars to support the restocking and refurbishing of the school’s canteen.

Our incredible school community and their friends and family raised over $4800 with a raffle and cupcake sales, which is likely to be use for flood recovery efforts.

There’s also plenty of new ideas on the horizon to continue efforts to restore the Murwillumbah East Primary School’s canteen and gardens.

TWEED SHIRE residents are being

urged to donate to The Smith Family’s Winter Appeal in a bid to help raise $1.9 million and support 1,550 disadvantaged children across NSW.

Funds raised will help the national children’s charity to support improvements in the educational outcomes of students in need. Donations will fund The Smith Family’s out-of-school learning and mentoring support programs helping students in terms three and four this year.

The Smith Family’s NSW and ACT General Manager, Annette Young, said: “Sadly there are huge educational inequalities that exist for the 1.1 million children and young people living below the poverty line in Australia.

“Recent reports from the Australian Council for Educational Research show the gap in educational achievement between advantaged and disadvantaged students is around three years in the critical areas of reading, maths and science,” said Ms Young.

“Without extra support, these children will fall further behind and be at risk of disengaging from their education all together.

support together with tailored learning opportunities is one of the most effective ways to help a child in need change their life.

Giving children access to the programs and extra support they need to complete their education successfully will help prevent them from experiencing a lifetime of hardship.”

The Smith Family’s Winter Appeal will raise funds help 10,000 children nationally access a range of learning support programs, including the charity’s reading program, its after-school Learning Clubs, and an online mentoring program for older students.

These programs complement, and are in addition to, what is offered by schools – with most support provided outside of school hours.

“We have a long way to go to raise $160,000

by June 30. I urge the community to get behind our Winter Appeal today. With your support we can provide a child in need with the help they need to make the most of their school years and go on to create a better future for themselves,” said Ms Young.

Tax deductible donations can be made via phone 1800 082 0690 or visit thesmithfamily. com.au.

Five facts about poverty in Australia

1. 1.1 million Australian children and young people live in poverty. That’s one in seven.

2. One in three children (32.6 per cent) from Australia’s most disadvantaged communities start school already behind in key learning areas, such as literacy and numeracy.

IT WAS the Commodore’s favourite conditions over the weekend with blue skies and a 20 plus knot southerly.

Of the 13 boats starting, five retired before the finish, leaving Bill Fenelon and crew Max Hennessy and Deb Flannery to take out their third win in a row in the Corsairs on No.199 Minnow.

Taj Krasna (10) from Fingal stepped in at the last minute to crew on a high performance NS14 for the first time with Adam Hurt on “Zazen”. He did a great job and they came in first in the monohulls over a minute in front of Laser champion Gary McCrohon.

Local hero John Hayward on Laser “Silent Partner” had another good race - and this was after a week of rescuing yachts breaking away from their moorings. His biggest rescue of a 50 foot steel

yacht, that ran onto rocks as it headed unmanned down the river towards the open ocean, drew a crowd of cheering onlookers and a local TV crew.

Dave Chester and Isaac Poulsen had no trouble taking out line honours on Hobie 16 Sledder, leaving plenty of time for some fun sailing while they waited for everyone else to make it back.

“Dinghy sailing makes you feel alive - working with the forces of nature is exhilarating. It’s the best sport I’ve ever been involved with,” Commodore Bill Fenelon said.

Come and meet this interesting and varied crowd of sailors for their next race on the Tweed at Fingal Head on Sunday, July 2.

Lifeguard Service has released 2016/17 summer rescue statistics for the Tweed Shire with both rescues and attendance up.

Rescues for the Tweed Coast were 50, which was slightly up on the previous 2015/16 summer of 43 rescues.

Attendance numbers also spiked with around 30,000 extra beachgoers throughout the warm months up from 231,711 in 2015/16 to 261,456.

Preventative actions by Lifeguards increased from 12,944 to 14,988 as the service continues to aim to curb the need to rescue.

Favourable climatic conditions over summer and a warm start to autumn ensured that Tweed beaches proved to be a popular place for locals and tourists alike.

More than a million visitors were recorded at Far North Coast beaches, according to the statistics, with Lifeguards constantly maintaining vigilance to ensure a safe experience for all.

“It’s been another fantastic summer and I would like to acknowledge the efforts of all our Lifeguards and all the Local Councils for working together to provide the best possible service to the people of the Far North Coast,” said ALS NSW Lifeguards Operation Manager Oliver Munson.

“Lifeguarding is a challenging but rewarding career that can take you around the state and even overseas,” said ALS NSW Lifeguards Operation Manager Oliver Munson.

“It teaches you skills for life and in fact we’ve found that the surf club environment is an ideal training ground as it gives you a great introduction to the ocean,” he said.

Applicants for Lifeguard

positions will participate in a vigorous fitness and skills session ahead of the season to ensure that they are in peak physical and mental condition.

Meanwhile, Tweed beachgoers will benefit from the Australian Lifeguard Service (ALS) for a further four years from September following confirmation of a contract extension.

ALS NSW Manager Brent Manieri said the extension was a vote of confidence in the ALS. “We are very much looking forward to continuing our work with Council in delivering a first class and professional lifeguarding service to the community and visitors of the Tweed Shire,” he said.

“Council’s commitment to water safety should be commended.

This extension has been based on the very best information from a variety of stakeholders, and this new contract ensures that visitors and locals alike will now have more choice about where to swim during what are sure to be busy summers ahead.”

Beginning in the 2017/18 contract period, Kingscliff Beach will be patrolled for seven months and will have a Rescue Water Craft capable of responding to emergencies along the coast.

Also beginning in 2017/18 Duranbah Beach will be patrolled for the duration of summer (December through February).

The existing agreement will remain for the 2016/17 summer with lifeguards from the ALS returning to Tweed in the September school holidays.

Additionally in another sign of the region’s popularity as a tourism destination, Tweed Coast Holiday Parks have once again agreed to provide lifeguard patrols over the Christmas and Easter school holiday period at North Kingscliff.

Bowls Notes

with Judy Tuckey

CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS have continued around the District with interesting results forthcoming.

Cudgen leagues members were able to finalise several events prior to last week’s big wet. The men’s singles final resulted in Les Browning dueling with Jimmy Gibson. In a tough encounter, Browning, two thirds through the game and sitting on a comfy 23-16 lead, appeared to be cruising to the finishing line with ease. However, a resurgence from Gibson brought about a reversal in scoring as he then took over the lead to reach 30-29 coming into the last end, and, holding shot. Browning, digging deep, pulled off one of his famous draw shots that gently tipped out Gibson’s shot bowl to give himself two shots and claim victory.

Semi-finals in the Cudgen women’s singles championship were tough games as Liz Fleming eliminated Jan Gillie and Margaret Trapnell ousted Joan Lawson to take their place in the final. Early ends in the final produced tight scoring from both

ladies until Liz orchestrated a quick break away mid game to open up a comfy lead and then it was back to even going, end for end, with Liz being able to maintain the upper hand and close the game with a secure margin.

Championship pairs were also concluded with Joan Lawson (S) and Margaret Trapnell challenging Daphne Edwards (S) and Joan Highfield for top honours. With these two team so evenly matched, a battle royal ensued as the ladies continuously scored alternatively in a high quality game with team Lawson claiming the last two ends to close the game with a minimal margin.

LATE NEWS: After recently winning her Club Open Singles Championship, Cabarita’s Sue Goode is off the contest the State Champion of Club Champions Championship Singles to be conducted at Ettalong Memorial B.C. commencing Tuesday 27 June. Best wishes to Sue for every success at this event.

See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

COOLANGATTA UP and comer Piper Harrison has won the Blue Ribbon Queensland Open Women’s division for 2017.

It came down to the wire between Harrison and Sunshine Coast surfer Sophie McCulloch, with equal ratings points Harrison claimed victory with the highest two wave combination score of the series,18.50 (out of a possible 20.00).

Harrison was electric in this afternoon’s final with an outstanding combination of high-speed snaps and powerful rail work to hold off McCulloch, Lauren McGregor, and Angie Adler who finished 2nd to 4th in the series respectively.

“I’m absolutely over the moon right now, it’s so exciting and I’m so pumped. This has been a dream of mine for ages,” said Harrison.

“It was so awesome for everyone to be getting good waves, it really turned on for us in the final. I surf here every day so knowing the banks and what they’ve been like definitely gave me an advantage.”

As Queensland Open Women’s champion, Harrison will get the opportunity to surf against the world’s best at the World Surf League Championship Tour 2018 Roxy Pro trials at Snapper Rocks.

MP Classic to Wrap Up Queensland Titles

Well the Queensland Championship Circuit will wrap up this weekend, with the MP Classic. This event is held in honour of the great Michael Peterson, the undeniable “King of Kirra”. His cutback in the 1970’s surf movie “Morning of the Earth” is his eternal symbol, but his surfing and tales of his life are the stuff of legend.

The battle for the Queensland Title and the Wildcard for the 2018 Quiksilver Pro Trials Wildcard is all part of the MP Classic, with three surfers in the battle for the win. James Woods leads the ratings, but will face a big challenge from his younger brother Thomas Woods, who is the defending Queensland Champion and 3rd in the QCC ratings.

Splitting the two Woods brothers is Snapper Rocks surfer Mitch Parkinson. Currently second in the ratings Mitch would love to get a crack at the Pro’s at his home break, and this weekend is his chance to secure the spot in the trials and a Queensland Title. The Queensland Title has a family history, and was also won by his father Daryl Parkinson, back in the 1970’s as a teenager. Some pretty good surfing genes in that family of course the of limb of the family tree has WSL surfer Joel Parkinson.

Competition for the MP Classic should commence on Saturday, and if the swell is there competitors will maybe get to surf MP’s home of Kirra Point. That is more than worth the entry fee!!

Convincing win for Mustangs as bigger test to come THE MUSTANGS are beginning to find form after they downed Byron Bay at Stan Sercombe Oval on Sunday, June 18, but the big test is this Sunday against Evans Head.

Byron has struggled to find consistent form this season and although bottom of the ladder, the visitors gave the Mustangs a tough first half during a rare period of sunshine in Murwillumbah.

The Mustangs were first to score with a break away run, but Byron’s defence answered back and the scoreboard was levelled by the end of half time at 10 all.

But the Mustangs showed their ability to maintain their form throughout the entire game dominating the second half and eventually downing Byron Bay 32 to 10.

The win is the Mustang’s third in as many weeks following some tough losses earlier in the season.

It places Murwillumbah in seventh place on the NRRRL ladder, with the Cudgen Hornets still performing well in fourth place followed by the Tweed Coast Raiders in fifth.

The Mustangs will play away this Sunday against Evans Head in battle for sixth place and another must win for Murwillumbah.

HOCKEY with Richard Phillip

THE GOLD COAST - Tweed Hockey competition kicked off over the weekend with both men’s and women’s teams playing a full round against the Gold Coast teams.

At the end of the completion the two top teams overall will play in the Grand Final.

This competition is always very tough and something players look forward to.

Men’s Results

The Waratahs were at home on grass at Burringbar against Kingscliff which saw a real old fashioned hard slog on the hollow natural grass. These two old clubs have had several tough battles over the last 50 years and this too was hard with a score line of 1/1.

Murwillumbah were a man short against the North Gold Coast Roosters and weren’t able to hang on as the Roosters won 6/1.

Murwillumbah’s best players were Kyle Prestwich and Brendan Iwanusha.

Casuarina v Burleigh saw Casuarina start fast out of the blocks and leading early 2/0.

Burleigh got their act together and came away winners 7/3 which could have been worse if not for some great goal keeping from Casuarina goal keeper Josh Marshall.

Labrador had a dominating win over Capri 7/1.

Mudgeeraba had the bye.

Women’s Results

The Waratahs had a hard tussle against

Mudgeeraba but came away winners 3/1.

Mudgeeraba scored first off a short corner only to see the Waratahs equalise with a short corner themselves on half time. Two second half goals to Tiarny Prichard sealed the game for the Waratahs.

Murwillumbah had a fantastic 7/1 win over Capri with both Sam Iwanusha and Shari East getting a double. Goals also went to Kelly O,Gorman, Sarah Johnston and Natasha Wybor.n Casuarina and the North Gold Coast Roosters had a very close game which Casuarina controlled and held possession.

Casuarina failed to capitalise on their possession going down 2/1 as the Roosters scored first off a short corner. Casuarina’s Keely Murry equalised but a late scrambling goal for the Roosters gave them the win.

Kingscliff played Burleigh who are the team to beat as they have several Queensland state players and a couple of Australian players. Kingscliff were up for the challenge and even though they lost 4/1 their coach Greg Edwards was pretty happy especially with their deep defence with Tilly Thomas and Sam Mortan and up front with Ella Shultz and Hayley Smith.

Mullumbimby had a 3/1 win against Capri. The Mullum girls were happy with this tight result especially after they had the last three weeks off with a bye then no game in the Lismore competition followed by the Queen’s birthday weekend off.

TWEED FOOTY LADDERS Far North Coast Rugby Union First Grade

Barbarians to host ladies day

THE CASUARINA Beach Rugby Club will host a special first ever Ladies Day event on Saturday, June 24 with a showcase of games including a first grade game.

The event will feature three games of rugby, starting with the U12s who will go head-tohead with the Brunswick Valley Billygoats.

This game is especially significant as it will see a number of raffles held with all proceeds going to the Wedgetail Retreat Community Hospice in Murwillumbah.

The following game will be a reserve grade match between Mullumbimby Federal and Lismore City, and finally first grade will see Casuarina Beach play Lismore City.

Half time in first grade will showcase the Casuarina U6 and U7 teams going at it in a 15 minute battle.

The Casuarina Beach Barbarians played Lismore in a catch up game at their ground on Thursday night June 8, to make up for the weekend of the floods earlier in the season.

The Barbarians are hoping to improve on their last meeting after the home side and fledgling club went down 23 to 15 in a tough battle - and this game promises to be just as hard fought.

Tickets are $39 each which includes five hour drinks package and canapes. Frock up for Fashion on the Fields for your chance to win. There will also be lucky door prizes to give away on the day.

Kingscliff Beach Hotel will be at the grounds from 6pm with their courtesy bus should you wish to continue the night at their venue.

The arrival time for the event is 12 midday at the Casuarina Beach Rugby Club.
