Special Energy Crisis Feature - Part 1

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.

Educate visitors to take pride and respect the environment. “But we have to remain positive and show people how much we care and not put up with those who show little regard for the ecology of the area.” Mr Good said the headland was often overrun with campers during Christmas, which he said was at times worse than any film set. “What we saw with the Disney film set was a good example of how proactive and thorough clean-up efforts can return an area to its natural state, they did a good job,” he said. “It’s important to reinforce that we don’t want people to destroy this area, but we also need to embrace the progress around us and we’re fortunate to be surrounded by national parks.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you agree with future filming opportunities at Hastings Point?

THE MURWILLUMBAH Show is safe this year but there’s a cloud of doubt looming over 2018, which has prompted organisers to appeal for help. As volunteer numbers continue to decline, Murwillumbah Show president Allan Campbell said the need for new people to take over vital roles could become dire next year. “A lot of people don’t realise the amount work that goes on behind the scenes to make a show like this a success each year,” he said. “It’s important we find new willing residents who can volunteer in a variety of areas. “One area of note is the bar service which requires a Responsible Service of Alcohol certificate.” Mr Campbell said the Show was safe for November 3 to 4 this year and the society was also introducing a new secretary, who’s eager to gain a new workforce. As reported in The Weekly, volunteers are hard to find across the Tweed Shire due to a busy work life and other commitments. Many local elderly, some in their 70s, have given countless hours but are deserving of a break.

donations to several local groups. Mr Brambleby told The Weekly that he “rejected Warner Brother’s offer” for funds and said accepting would compromise his views on the film set. “This is not about just one film shoot on Hastings Point Headland, but instead it’s about setting a dangerous precedent that somehow this area is open to anyone that has enough money,” he said. “This is a vital and sensitive area including the rocky outcrops which play a vital role in marine ecology of this fragile environment. “By opening the door to these types of operations we risk not only the current ecological systems but we set the precedent that we’re okay with that.” The Weekly spoke with several Tweed Coast residents who said they were initially concerned by the film set, but after learning more they have changed their views. “It’s just such an amazing headland, I can see why they want to film here but that doesn’t mean they should be allowed, I just hope the clean-up is a positive one,” one resident, who did not want to be named, said. Dune Care convenor Arthur “Goodie” Good, who has lived at Hastings Point for the past 15 years, said he understands Mr Brambleby’s views and in many ways he agrees. Mr Good said he will accept the offer for funds from Warner Brothers, which he said would be used to continue the efforts on the beach and in the dunes. “We don’t need to embrace it, but we’d be silly to reject it,” he said in reference to the film sets both past and present. “Yes, I agree with Ted, we have to protect this area at great cost.

PLANNED WORKS at Hastings Point Headland are taking shape for the film set this week, as public debate continues around what many residents believe may be a “dangerous precedent” for one of the far north coast’s most unspoilt coastal communities. What started with a visit from Hollywood in 2015 by Disney for Pirates of the Caribbean, has now become an attractive film location for multi-million-dollar film companies with the arrival of Warner Brothers this month. The latest film, Aquaman, is being filmed by movie giant Warner Bros, who was cleared to film at Hastings Point following an emergency meeting by Tweed Shire Councillors in early July. But not everyone is buying into the glitz and prospect of a ‘selfie’ with the stars, including Hastings Point Marine Biologist Ted Brambleby (pictured),

Gold Coast-style development won’t come to Kingscliff

Politicians who don’t check statements offered by those who could appear to be promising votes for those statements, can look silly. (TVW page 5, 20/07/17) Kingscliff hasn’t been a village for years. It’s a vibrant coastal town with a strong tourism sector. Yes, we’ve lost the intimacy of small community living and the immediate security that accompanies this, but we haven’t lost the beauty of creek and beach. Nor should we have lost the friendliness of village life – the smile for visitors, the co-operation between residents, residents and business people and a combined wish by all to work together to enhance daily life. Yet there are some whose nostalgia has become twisted, who appear to be getting a perverse pleasure from attempting to reproduce via scaremongering that period when all developers were summarily labeled “develop at any cost,“ when a majority of councilors were enamored of Gold Coast-style development, when Commissions of Inquiry found dodgy deals and business people were considered suspect. Planning legislation has strengthened over the years. It curtails “slippery-slope” changes and ensures that all proposed quid pro quo DA agreements are “aboveboard.“ To suggest otherwise and to point the political finger is to mislead residents. Barbara Fitzgibbon, Kingscliff

We object to four-storey plans

Please register our absolute rejection and objection to any increase in height for this development, which would enable four storey buildings to be built at the Kingscliff location (TVW July 20 page 5). This would become a terrible precedent on the Tweed Coast, and would result in further future

developers to push for a four storey allowance, then five storey, then six storey and so on. This would be completely against the special attraction of the Tweed Coast in comparison to the Gold Coast. This environment here is low impact from developers, being limited to three-storey height levels. That’s why people continue to flock to the Tweed Coast. Do not let developers mask their intentions by talking in so-called environmental terms, or “what’s good for the community”. This community is happy with the current three-storey limits. The TSC needs to maintain its compact with the people who live here, and have built their homes here because of the different lifestyle and the interaction with nature that the Tweed Coast environment provides in comparison with going North of the Tweed River. We don’t want another Gold Coast here, and we call upon the TSC to reject any developer proposals to increase height levels above three storeys. Wynne and Marisa Henderson, Cabarita Beach

Kings Forest developer must keep promises

Many newcomers to the Tweed might not know the history of the Kings Forest development so far. When the developer purchased the land at Kings Forest, it was well known to be the territory of the Tweed Shire’s major koala colony. The land was purchased for approximately $20 million, which was considered very cheap as it was doubtful that anything much could ever be built there. The developers spokesman said at the time “ it might turn out to be a very expensive koala park”. So they took a punt. When the developer proposed a “mini city” on the land, with 4500 dwellings and little consideration for the resident remaining koalas, more people objected to this development than any other in the history of NSW, since Captain Cook landed. Koala conservation groups such as Team Koala were formed to consult leading koala experts on the minimum standards needed to have any hope of keeping wild koalas on the Tweed. The company and the community both submitted their thoughts to the State Government, who essentially operated as the “ umpire”. The umpire backed the koala experts and the community, and the developer was given the immense privilege of constructing many thousands of dwellings on the condition that they spent a few

dollars on things like traffic calming devices and a 100-metre wildlife corridor and planting new trees. The developer accepted that. Now, just before the bulldozers arrive, they have applied to break their commitments to the community and the koalas. Fair suck of the sav guys. I know our local koala population might apparently mean little to a South African born billionare, but they mean a lot to the people of this area. Please support Team Koala and their efforts to get developer to keep his promises on koala protection. Lisa Townsend, Murwillumbah

No care for our Commonwealth Games mascot

The Commonwealth Games are upon us and the endangered koala has been made the official Games mascot. Meanwhile, the Tweed Shire Council ‘development at any cost’ faction led by the National Party Councillor Warren Polglase is quoted as saying “the region needed to do more before it missed an important opportunity” in relation to Government funding helping the Northern Rivers capitalise on the Games. Cr Polglase has for many years convinced his faction to vote for inappropriate development and ecological vandalism in the Tweed which in turn contributes to the very demise of our Games mascot, the endangered coastal koala. Economic advance is not the same thing as human or environmental progress. We shouldn’t have to continually fight with our Council and Government to protect our koalas and the environment, we should be able to live in a world where the environment doesn’t need protecting. Andrew Bennett, Murwillumbah

Don’t rip up our railway

I was amazed to learn that there has been a huge sum of money allocated by the Government for the destruction of the rail line to allow for a rail trail to be built. Yes in order to change the railway line with its ballast and sleepers to a surface conducive for cyclists it will mean the destruction of a valuable piece of infrastructure which will be very difficult to replace in the future. History shows us that rail trails are a novelty item suited for a small proportion of the population. The cycling fraternity has been very vocal to convince the government to favour their proposal. If other rail trails are anything to go by the rail trail will probably become a white elephant and the need for a commuter train will be on the radar. The line covers over 100 kilometres. Even the Tour de France cyclists

would find that quite a challenge. Social cyclists would rarely ride that distance in a day or two. Will there be series of toilets provided for the small number of users and who will maintain these over time? What about camp sites. Access roads for emergencies such as snakebite or falls. Who will service these? The Council which is already cash strapped? The line passes through many private properties which may be compromised by elements of the bikers and hikers who will use the trail. Who will police the trail to stop horse riders using the trail? Once the trail is used by horses in the wet season it will be unsuitable for cycling except for the few with expensive trail bikes. Who will maintain the track? A recent event of Hendra Virus was reported in the area proposed for the rail trail. Contaminants from animals, in particular horses, could be spread along the trail by bicycles and pedestrians allowing cross contamination of paddocks and the spread of diseases. It is still a requirement to disclose if you have visited a rural property overseas when entering Australia. That is to avoid spread of diseases to plants and animals. We are putting our farming industry at risk by allowing such a conduit to allow for the potential spread of contaminants. If a similar amount of money was allocated to the construction of a light rail commuter service for all the people of the region there would be a positive spin off for the developing small towns along the way. The Northern Rivers is an area of spectacular scenery which will attract numerous visitors in the years to come. A light rail commuter service linking the Coolangatta Airport to our region eventually would be a boon to tourism and would provide much needed infrastructure to the region for all, not just the few. In fact similar commuter trains which I have ridden on in Europe allow bicycles to be taken on the train to allow cyclists to explore. Properly run, such a light rail service would pay for itself. A commuter service could be run by private investors so as to lower the impact on other Government Services but the rail track must be Government owned forever. There are many such precedents around the world. Should we miss this opportunity to link up our isolated towns or they will die out eventually. Young country people will not remain to farm the area if they feel isolated. Older folk will benefit from safe

travel to the bigger centres to access medical and other vital services. Our roads are already feeling the strain of population growth. Ju s t a c ro s s t h e b o r d e r i n Queensland a flawed political decision was made to lift the line from Brisbane to Coolangatta. As population pressure grew the trains have had to be returned with the corridor being bought back at a huge cost. We should learn from this lesson. A walking trail need not follow a train line. It would be a better outcome if the train line remained for trains and an adjacent walking, cycling and horse riding trail complemented the train where practical. Let’s not lose sight of the future needs of the region which is set to grow in the years ahead. This is the last chance to return trains to our track. Trevor Duffie, Chillingham

Newspaper a great alternative to plastic bags

I note Myrna Hughes letter (TVW 20/7/17) condemning the proposal to ban the single use plastic bag. I see it this way: Coles and Woolworths are finally making a stand to reduce the vast amount of unnecessary plastic that ends up in landfill – and contrary to what Myrna might believe it is there for absolute aeons, even if it is called biodegradable. Also, vast amounts of our plastic waste ends up in our drains and then ends up in our oceans. Who doesn’t yet know that this is of huge detriment to marine species but also to us humans as plastic particles get into the food chain that we ingest. I note Myrna laments the fact that the supermarkets sell plastic bag liners for kitchen waste bins. I would ask the question: do we really need a bin liner? I hark back to a time when my parents placed newspaper in the base of the kitchen waste bin. Paper is totally biodegradable and here in the Tweed area we get some free weekly newspapers that could be put to this use once read. Maybe we could consider reinstating some of these old practices, I certainly will. Aldi, Bunnings and numerous other big stores don’t give out free plastic bags and we manage to shop there. Let us all adapt to this necessary change to our throw-away society. Gayle Russell, Nunderi Send your letters and news tips to editor@theweekly.net.au or our office at 1/12 Queen Street Murwillumbah.

Local News 5

Several hot ticket agenda items for July Council meeting TWEED SHIRE Councillors voted on a range of local agenda items last Thursday, July 20, during Tweed Shire Council’s July Ordinary Meeting.

Urliup roadworks denied

Among the hot ticket items was a development application from Holding Redlich on behalf of the owners of 477 Urliup Road, Urliup. The owners had previously applied to Tweed Shire Council to upgrade Urliup Road to accommodate larger 19-metre trucks for water extraction, highlighting that they could do the works themselves. However, this application was denied and the owners have now offered to contribute $400,000 towards Urliup Road works to widen the road at specific sections to enable the use of these larger trucks. The recommendation to declinre the offer of $400,000 was carried with a Council report stating “the true cost and impact of the roadworks and vegetation clearing is unknown; the proposed works benefit a single private development and are not part of any road upgrade strategy of Council; and the amended proposal has not been publicly exhibited”. Those who voted for the motion included Cr Reece Byrnes, Cr Chris Cherry, Cr Ron Cooper, Cr Katie Milne whilst those against the motion were Cr Warren Polglase, Cr Pryce Allsop. Cr James Owen was absent for most of the July meeting.

$28,850 in events funding

Tweed Shire Councillors have approved funding to several local events and groups. Among them was $5,000 for the World Environment Day Festival, $600 to Coolangatta-Mt Warning Dragon Boat Club, $10,000 to Creative Caldera for the Murwillumbah Art Trail, $1,500 to the Murwillumbah Rowing Club for the Head of the Tweed 2018, $1,500 to the Tweed District

Orchid Society, $7,500 to the Tweed River Agricultural Society and $2,000 to the Tweed Valley Adventist College and Murwillumbah Churches Together for Carols at the College.

Push for plastic bag ban

Another highly debated agenda item was questions around the removal of single use plastic bags. Both Cr Katie Milne and Cr Chris Cherry moved that Council writes to the NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian and Environment Minister Gabrielle Upton, to support the banning of single use lightweight plastic bags. The Motion was carried with a unanimous vote.

No support for artificial surf reef

Councillors have voted not to support a prototype artificial surf reef near Kingscliff through the Australian Research Council Grant Application. Councillors agreed that the shire was not in a position to give $100,000 towards the project as it was “not appropriate in the current post flood financial circumstances”. The motion comes as a relief to several coast residents who expressed concern about overcrowding the coastline, should the project go ahead. However, the project could still be resubmitted using funding outside of Tweed Shire Council, although no more information was available at the time of print. The motion was carried via a unanimous vote.

Small business insurance issues

Mayor Katie Milne moved a motion that Council writes to the NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian to highlight the apparent lack of support by the various insurance companies for claims submitted by residents and businesses following ex-tropical cyclone Debbie. Mayor Milne also moved that Council writes to the Small Business Commissioner to ask the

outcome of the meeting with the Ombudsman on May 31 regarding insurance claims and for an update regarding an independent hydrologist report to clarify resident’s and business’ concerns around insurance company hydrologist reports.

Banora drains back on agenda

The Western Drainage Scheme at Banora Point was back on the agenda this month, with councillors voting to revisit the drainage scheme options. Residents have long campaigned to improve the flow and environment around the manmade waterways, which now serve as habitats for rare species of birds and other native wildlife. Mayor Milne moved that Council brings forward a report on the current management plans and actions relating to the Western Drainage Scheme; an update on the floating vetiver grass trial and investigation of the Jacana bird occupancy areas; adjacent banks and parkland areas that could be regenerated to assist in reducing nutrient overloads; options for a stormwater levy and the benefits such a levy may be able to achieve for improving waterway health; ways the community could become more involved in working with Council on restoring the Western Drainage Scheme to a more healthy state and options to negotiate with Club Banora to allow restoration of the free flow of tidal waters around the Club site.

Kingscliff Locality Plan

The Kingscliff Locality Plan was back on the agenda this week with councillors voting to hold a workshop on options for the West Kingscliff greenfield development site. This follows a motion from Council’s June 15 meeting which noted that with reduced or retained building heights in the Draft Kingscliff Locality Plan there would be reduced developer contributions that could be used to build a new library, town square or carpark.

The workshop will be held with the Gales Holdings/Intrapac development team who will present concepts of staged development strategy with a focus on the West Kingscliff greenfield development site.

Council plans to purchase South Murwillumbah land parcel

Councillors voted to attempt to purchase a large block of land located at South Murwillumbah for the purpose of flood mitigation. The l6-hectare block of land is located at 519 Industry Central and goes under the hammer this weekend (July 30) at Twin Towns. While Council’s report on the proposal is confidential it does mention potential funding from the State and/or Federal Government to assist with the purchase. In a statement to The Weekly, Council said the proposal is an initiative from Council staff to retain employment, provide business with an opportunity to grow and expand in a way that mitigates flood risk. “Council has spoken with a variety of senior government officials and ministers to see whether they can support by funding with this one-off special circumstances application,” a Council spokesperson said. “No other areas are being proposed as this parcel is sufficient in size to allow the targeted business relocations, is appropriately zoned and is available for sale.”

Revamp for Murwillumbah murals

Councillors voted to provide $25,000 in funding to Passages Collective in partnership with strong southerly for installation of a piece of public art at Chinderah/Kingscliff. There were no offers that met Council’s budget for the Murwillumbah Art Project. Instead councillors voted to provide $5,000 of the project’s funds to go towards cleaning and restoration of the Murwillumbah levee wall public murals.

“Once completed, a local dialysis unit at MDH will give back a huge amount of time to these patients that I am sure they will welcome,” Mr Jones said. The Weekly followed up with the NNSW LHD about the Renal Unit on July 4, with several questions. The first statement read that the “Northern NSW Local Health District management are currently reviewing planning options for a Renal Unit at Murwillumbah District Hospital,” Mr Jones said.. The Weekly pressed the matter for more detail after which Mr Jones told The Weekly via an email that the Northern NSW Local Health District “is committed to the establishment of the Renal Unit at Murwillumbah District Hospital”. “A number of factors including workforce have delayed planning which is now being finalised and should be completed within the coming months,” he said.

New monthly markets for Knox Park

KNOX PARK in Murwillumbah is set to become a regular market venue with the official welcome of a new monthly Makers & Finders Market on Saturday, August 19. The Makers and Finders Market is an exciting new venue for artists and musicians from the Tweed region to come together and share their wares and for the community to shop, meet, eat, drink and enjoy the park. The new markets are expected to be a popular drawcard for families with plenty of free activities for kids in the park including a brand-new skate park and children’s playground, tennis courts, a feeding pond and lots of space to kick a ball around or simply relax and have a picnic under the shade of the trees. The Makers & Finders Market is organised by Peita Gardiman who said the new market,

AFTER ALMOST 12 months there has been little progress towards the establishment of the Renal Dialysis Unit at Murwillumbah District Hospital (MDH), despite around $400,000 allocated by NSW Health in September 2016. State member for Lismore Thomas George met with hospital staff, a renal patient and The Weekly on Friday, September 9, 2016, to make the announcement for the new unit. Tweed Valley residents are currently required to attend The Tweed Hospital for dialysis for several hours, three times a week which often requires a family member or friend for transport. The Murwillumbah Renal Unit was proposed for early 2017, although that deadline has since expired with suggestions the unit may take several months more. The service was proposed to be a satellite service of the Tweed Byron Health Service Group Renal Dialysis Service, which currently provides in-centre and home-based renal dialysis services to the residents of the Tweed Local Government Area (LGA), Byron LGA and residents of the southern Gold Coast Service Level Agreements. “The $400,000 funding from NSW Health will provide the opportunity to commence the planning and design consultation phase for a purpose-built facility to address the need for in-centre renal dialysis in the Murwillumbah area,” Mr George said at the time of the announcement (Sept 2016). “This funding will enable the establishment of a six-chair Renal Dialysis Unit at MDH to provide in-centre haemodialysis to patients with stable, dialysis-dependent kidney disease.” NNSW LHD chief executive Wayne Jones pointed out in September 2016 that the news was great for those local renal dialysis patients who currently travel to The Tweed Hospital for treatment.

which is taking place on the third Saturday of each month, is both a market and creative social gathering. “It has all the right ingredients and intentions to grow into something really beautiful with a combo of food trucks dishing out nourishing bites, lots of creative stalls and acres of inviting grassy fields to appreciate your surroundings while listening to live music from local musicians each month,” she said. “Makers and Finders are keen to encourage the community to be environmentally aware, focusing on sustainable living and actively reusing and recycling resources. “The market encourages upcycling and recycling of household goods, and also provides an outlet for creative makers to sell their works at market stalls.”

Post flood trauma could linger in minds of Tweed residents this happening to others, or heard about it happening to a relative or close friend, or if they were a professional first responder and were exposed to traumatic details of the flood,” she said. “While it is normal for people to experience acute stress immediately after the flood, some people continue to re-experience the traumatic nature of the flood months later by having intrusive thoughts, nightmares, flashbacks, and emotional distress or physical reactivity when things remind them of the flood, such as when it rains, or when they see a news article or image of the event. “People may also begin avoiding places, people, conversations, or situations that remind them of the flood, because they do not want to have flood related thoughts or feelings in their body. “They may also begin avoiding exercise because the physical sensations when exercising may feel the same as panic sensations they may have had during the flood.” Ms Vidler said if people think they may have some post-traumatic stress symptoms because of the flood, they should see someone who has specialised training in working with trauma. “There are a range of useful trauma modalities that work with resolving the way that traumatic memory is held in the brain and body,” she said. “It’s best for people to work with a practitioner who has specialised training in understanding how traumatic memory is held in the brain and body, and who use a method to reprocess the traumatic memory throughout the whole brain, body and nervous system. “If people are struggling financially, a good avenue is to see their GP. If they meet criteria for a diagnosis such as PTSD, Adjustment Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, or another diagnosis, they can be referred

Solar Power Becoming a Necessity Electricity prices have just increased by about 20% at the start of July, this will add approximately $600 to an average household yearly electricity expenditure making budgets stretch, putting households under even more ﬁnancial stress, as if there wasn’t enough stress already. There is a positive out of this- The Solar Feed in Tariff has also increased, the solar feed in tariff is what you get paid for excess power produced that you don’t use in your house to power your lights and appliances. The Feed In Tariff is increasing by approximately 82% in NSW and 77% in QLD. With the increase in power prices and the increase in the Solar Feed in Tariff there isn’t a better time to get a solar power system installed. The solar rebate is still very generous with a 5kw system receiving about $3000 off the system price as a discount. This is a substantial saving which decreases in value every year. Due to the increase in electricity prices and the decrease in the rebate at the end of the year there is an expected rush to get solar systems installed and there are only so many installers, I would recommend getting your solar system now to beat the rush. The shortest day of the year has just passed so the solar generation will only keep increasing as the days get longer through summer, you won’t feel so bad turning the air-conditioner on if you know it is getting powered by the sun for free. Solar prices have also come down over the years, when the generous 60c or 44c cent feed in tariffs were around a 5kw system was around $18,000. Now you can get a 5kw solar system for $5995. There hasn’t been a better time to invest in a solar system. If you don’t have the cash and would like a ﬁnance option you can get a $0 deposit and the electricity savings can be more than the repayments so buying a solar system can be cheaper than to continue paying your electricity bill without solar. When the system has been paid off is when you will be thanking your lucky stars that you decided to get a solar system installed, you will have a minimal electricity bill (sometimes you can have a $0 bill or even receive a cheque for your excess power), your property will have increased in value and at the same time you have helped the environment. Solar Power is a no brainer, the longer you wait to get it installed the less money you save. Solar power is becoming a necessity and right now is the best time to purchase a system. If you would like a free energy assessment to give you the best advice on lowering your electricity bill please contact SAE Group, your local Solar Specialist on 1300 182 050 or go to www.saegroup.com.au.

to a psychologist under a Medicare Mental Health Treatment Plan, which gives a rebate for a large part of the cost of therapy, for up to 10 sessions each calendar year.” However, some flood affected people may not necessarily have post-traumatic stress, but may have other emotional needs following the flood, that they do not feel are resolving just by speaking with friends and family. “If this is happening, seeking out some professional support is a very healthy thing to do,” she said. Ms Vidler said people can recover from post-traumatic stress events such as the floods, if they seek the right advice. “People can definitely recover from trauma and PTSD, with the right intervention,” she said. “Getting specialist trauma intervention is important because the wrong type of intervention can unfortunately make things worse.

“For example, for some people it is helpful to talk about the flood, often over and over again as a way of integrating what happened and letting it go, but for others with unresolved trauma held in their brain and body, talking about it without attending to the way the body holds the trauma, and what the body needs to do, can instead consolidate the neural wiring of the traumatic event rather than rewire it in a helpful way.” As well as presenting on August 12, Ms Vidler will also present on Saturday, August 26, from 9.30am to 1pm at a half-day workshop called Ritual For Loss. “This is an experiential workshop for people still coming to terms with losses of all kinds and includes a simple but powerful walking ritual for letting go,” she said.

CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST Katy Vidler (pictured) has warned that Tweed residents affected by the recent flood could now be experiencing post-traumatic stress symptoms and may need proper help to work through the trauma. Ms Vidler will be hosting a free talk for Tweed residents that were flood affected at Heart & Soul of Wellness, 49 Commercial Road, Murwillumbah, on Saturday, August 12, from 11am to 1pm. “This talk will help flood affected locals understand what is happening in their brains, nervous systems and bodies, and I will teach some strategies for immediate relief that people can use straight away or teach to their children,” she said. Ms Vidler has years of experience and multiple degrees in the study of science, education and psychology, making her one of the leading experts in post-traumatic stress treatment. “With more than 11,000 hours experience in face to face sessions and delivering group programs in my former role as a Senior Clinical Psychologist in private practice, I have worked extensively with individuals suffering with post-traumatic stress,” she said. Ms Vidler said post-traumatic stress symptoms often arise months after a traumatic event is experienced. “This can be very confusing for people because just at the time when they think everything should start to feel better, it can begin to feel worse,” she said. “This is why it’s called post traumatic stress. The symptoms arise once we are feeling safe again and when things feel like they are returning to normal.” Ms Vidler said people can be affected if they were directly exposed to the flood and felt a risk to their life, or the risk of serious physical injury. “But people can also be affected if they saw

Tweed homelessness alert as Council moves for affordable housing caravan park comprising 172 long term sites and 15 short term sites at 355 Tomewin Road, Dungay,” the report reads. “This is currently on exhibition and may go to the JRPP or Council for determination.” Trish Evans for Social Futures and The Northern Rivers Housing Forum, recently wrote an article for Shelter NSW’s June edition highliting the housing crisis in the Tweed Shire. “A 2013 study, due to be updated in the near future, projected that by 2021 there would be 25,000 eligible social housing applicants in the region competing for the current stock of approximately 3,000 properties,” she wrote. “This study also reported an inability to meet the housing needs of the region as its population grows, noting that there was a 31 per cent shortfall in total housing supply between the 2006 and 2011 Censuses. “Ballina, Byron Bay and Tweed Heads consistently remain inaccessible to any of the demographic groups included in this survey. “Housing in these areas, which represents nearly 20 per cent of all properties counted on the day, is realistically only affordable to those earning above the minimum wage.”c Meanwhile, each year The Family Centre is assisting more than 300 young people and children aged 15 to 24, who are homeless or at imminent risk of becoming homeless. During the 2014 reform of the NSW Specialist Homelessness Services program, Tweed Shire lost 12 Housing NSW beds previously allocated to homeless young people. Tweed Shire has the lowest number of supported accommodation options for homeless young people in NSW. There are only two houses with two bedrooms in each property allocated by Housing NSW as supported transitional accommodation for young people in the Tweed Shire. Just four beds are available to meet the

needs of over 300 homeless young people and accompanying children. Shakia (pictured), 21, has been in and out of homelessness since she was 16 and her childhood has been unstable with several moves around the Tweed Shire. “I attended 17 different schools in 13 years,” she said. “My mum’s new partner moved into our family home when I was 16 – our personalities clashed and I didn’t feel safe so I started couch surfing at friend’s houses. “By 18, I was sleeping in my car, showering at the homes of friends but still turning up to class at Kingscliff High School. “It was really hard with all this happening and trying to finish year 12. Most nights I’d try and stay roughly near school. It was a daily thing for me to think ‘where am I going to park my car tonight’ – I was always looking for safe places where I could lock the doors of my car and sleep that night. “I eventually sought support from The Family Centre. I was very fortunate to be offered one of the four beds available for homeless young people in the Tweed Shire.

“Having a safe house to live in has made a huge difference in my life and helped me focus on dreams for the future. “I have finished year 12 and also finished a course in nursing and now have a job working in an aged care facility. I am looking at going to university next year which I never thought I would be able to do. “Having a safe home means I have some stability in my life.” The Tweed Shire has a population of more than 90,000 people and one of the highest homelessness rates in NSW. The Family Centre is calling on the NSW Government to immediately restore the number of beds available for homeless young people from four back to 16. “This will bring the number of beds in line with other comparable regions in the state,” a statement from The Family Centre reads. The Family Centre has also stared an online petition title “Pru (Goward MP) increase the number of beds for homeless young people” via Change.org. The petition had received 209 signatures at the time of print, with a target of 500.

HOMELESSNESS HAS reached alarming levels across the Tweed Shire during 2017, with heartbreaking stories of kids sleeping rough and limited bed numbers as Tweed Shire Council and The Family Centre move to address the shortage. During Council’s July Ordinary Meeting on Thursday, July 20, Mayor Katie Milne raised two motions to continue efforts in addressing homelessness including the Housing Affordability and Inclusionary Zoning motion and Tweed Shire Housing Opportunities. If adopted an “inclusionary zone” could mean that each future development, where appropriate, would be required to include a percentage of allocation to social or affordable housing. Councillors voted to seek advice from the State Government on the potential for an Inclusion Zone and “brings a report on this matter back to a Council meeting as soon as possible”. In the second motion, both Mayor Milne and Deputy Mayor Chris Cherry proposed bringing forward a report on options to address the lack of social and affordable housing in the Tweed Shire, particularly the post flood housing issues and opportunities, including but not limited to requirements for new developments. “This report should include immediate, short term and long-term options, and areas where Council can lobby State and Federal Government and arrange high level meetings with government representatives,” the report reads. The report said that post flood there have been community calls for a “caravan park or tiny homes type development to be considered to address the shortfall in housing”. “During June 2017 Council has received a development application for a proposed

This is a question parents of Preschool aged children think and talk about a lot. What can I do to prepare my child for school? The most important thing to consider when answering this question concerns your child’s social and emotional development. Children need to learn how to cope when away from their main care givers, how to make friends, and how to successfully negotiate outcomes during play and other interactions. Once children are socially and emotionally comfortable they are ready to learn.

protecting a child’s play time and making sure she’s ready for kindergarten. A high-quality early childhood education program will offer children both. But how do high-quality preschools benefit children’s learning and development? And what features should parents look for in a preschool program? One answer to these questions is that the staff at high-quality preschools and child care programs understand the particular ways that young children develop and learn. And they organize space, time and activities to be in sync with children’s social, emotional, cognitive, and physical abilities.

AS KINDERGARTEN becomes more academic, many parents look to preschool to launch their child on the path to success in school. At the same time, parents may worry that the current trend to focus on pre-math and pre-literacy skills in preschool cuts into important play time and pushes a child to grow up too fast. It’s a confusing issue,especially with friends and family offering different opinions and advice. Fortunately, in selecting a preschool, parents aren’t forced to choose between

Water Alliance questions future of NSW Water

Reuse reopens with vision for the future SOUTH MURWILLUMBAH business, Reuse Furniture and Collectibles, has reopened recently with a bigger and better shop following a mammoth clean-up and recovery effort from the Tweed flood. Passionate Murwillumbah local and Reuse owner, Rani Neil, said she spent the last three months cleaning, rethinking and remodelling the shop to create an exciting new space for the southside to be proud of. Reuse specialises in unique items such as vintage retro upcycled furniture, art, home decorations, vinyl, French provincial and much more. Rani told The Weekly that the task of cleaning the flood impact away has opened new doors and opportunities to expand, offering more products and services. “The clean up nearly killed me,” she said. “But I’m so glad for all the hard work and what’s come out of it is a whole new approach to the shop with much of the eclectic appeal

it had before.” Reuse now offers greater floor space for browsing some of the region’s most unique retro furniture and new spaces for artists, makers and finders. “I’m also very proud of our new do-ityourself area of furniture and renovation componetry, which includes an amazing array of affordable options to get your creativity flowing with workshops focusing on upcycling and revamping are soon to come,” she said. “We would love for everyone local and visitors to come down and have a look at the new shop. “We are also planning to open a new café connected to the main shop, which we hope will service some of South Murwillumbah and continue to branch out the offering on this side of town.” To find out more about Reuse phone Rani on (02) 6672 2113 or visit the corner of Prospero and Tweed Valley Way, Murwillumbah.

“This Four Corners story should result in an independent inquiry into NSW Water. That inquiry should include its failure to comply with or enforce its own regulations or to properly and safely manage water in our region,” Mr Tager said. “The Four Corners story makes it clear this is not accidental. The history of corruption around water in this state – think Obeid, think McDonald – tells all of us that an independent inquiry is critical. “This story is not just about the Murray Darling but about the business of water, the vast amounts of money that are being made out of the Water Management Act in NSW and the priority being given to water as a private commodity rather than a public good This has to end.” Meanwhile the NSW Government told ABC following the Four Corners report that it remains committed to the Murray Darling Basin Plan and it will investigate the allegations raised in the Four Corners program. YOUR THOUGHTS: Did you see Four Corners (ABC) on Monday, July 24? Do you believe that NSW Water requires an internal investigation to determine the best course of action for the Tweed Shire? Send your thoughts or letters to editor@theweekly.net.au

Locals Toni Zuschke and Rani Neil are loving the new Reuse space after hard work cleaning up

FOLLOWING THE ABC Four Corners report highlighting the alleged abuse of the Water Management Act in NSW, the Tweed Water Alliance is calling for an investigation into NSW Water and what it says is a “complete failure to implement, monitor or enforce conditions on licences imposed in order to properly manage water in the Northern Rivers area of NSW”. “NSW Water has imposed the same ‘conditions’ on every licence we have examined in the Tweed for more than a decade and never enforced those conditions,” Jeremy Tager of the Tweed Water Alliance said in a media statement. “Meters are required. Never enforced. Annual reports are required. Never enforced. In fact, it appears that NSW Water has told licence holders they don’t have to bother.” NSW Water says this information is essential to manage groundwater in NSW and highlighted that this is the same agency that Tweed Shire depends on for management of Tweed water. “Clearly that dependence is misplaced,” Mr Tager said. “NSW Water has told Tweed Shire that everything is fine with groundwater in the Tweed, despite little data, no monitoring and no enforcement. “Tweed Shire clearly needs to examine the evidence that is behind these claims.” The group said that new water rules, which are now coming into effect in the Tweed, may be even worse as they rely on self-regulation. The Four Corners report also showed how licence holders rigged or disabled their meters in some circumstances. Under the new rules that will apply in the Tweed, no meters will be required, only log books. “No annual reports will be required and NSW Water will have no idea what is going on with groundwater,” the Alliance said in their media statement.

NSW Premier spends the day visiting Tweed BEATS ready to shine

NSW PREMIER Gladys Berejiklian spent Monday, July 24, taking in the sights of the Tweed Shire while speaking with locals and visiting key infrastructure set to open later this year. To start the day, Ms Berejiklian attended the Tweed Heads Chamber Breakfast to hear from local speakers and mingle with business owners. The Premier also heard from local Team Koala campaigners including Jenny Hayes, who stressed that “it is a privilege not a right to develop in the Tweed”. “We just want the Kings Forest developer the keep the commitments already made,” she told The Weekly. “We have a long memory in the country and we still have the fullpage ads taken out by Leda to tell the community that they could be trusted on koalas. “Once you have lost the main colony at Kings Forest the other two remaining colonies are isolated, become inbred and collapse.” Ms Berejiklian also heard from Leda Holdings Chairman Bob Ell, who expressed his disappointment to the Premier that developments were being delayed and the need to reduce red tape. Following this, Ms Berejiklian inspected the $25.2 million Tweed Heads Police Station with Member for Tweed Geoff Provest, with hopes the new facility could be officially opened around September. Ms Berejiklian praised local police who she said was committed to giving them the tools and facilities needed for vital work. “The new Tweed Heads Police Station means local police will have the latest technology to assist them in preventing

and disrupting crime in the region,” Ms Berejiklian said. “The NSW Government always puts community safety first, and this investment highlights that commitment. “In addition to investing in police infrastructure, the NSW Government has also increased police numbers with an additional 11 officers added to Tweed-Byron Local Area Command since we were elected.” Mr Provest said the new state-of-theart facility would provide a welcome boost for police in the Tweed. “Police in the Tweed do extraordinary work in reducing local crime, as evidenced by the most recent quarterly BOCSAR figures,” he said. During her visit, Ms Berejiklian and Mr Provest officially handed over a fully-equipped, $105,000 hazardous materials (HAZMAT) van to Fire & Rescue NSW (FRNSW) firefighters at Tweed Heads Fire Station. Ms Berejiklian said the new vehicle will boost local firefighting capabilities and help with fires, chemical spills and

other emergencies. “Our firefighters are highly skilled, versatile, and adaptable. Every day these brave men and women put their lives on the line to make sure we are safe,” Ms Berejiklian said. “To perform at their best they need the right resources, and this new van will provide them with the equipment they need to save lives.” FRNSW Northern Rivers Zone Commander, Superintendent Greg Lewis said fire and rescue officers at Tweed Fire Station and across the district were doing an extraordinary job protecting their communities. “I am pleased that this new HAZMAT van will help them perform their work more effectively,” he said. In 2015/16, Tweed Heads firefighters responded to approximately 740 fire and emergency calls and conducted more than 440 community engagement activities to educate the public about home fire safety.” Ms Berejiklian also visited the Tweed Gallery and met with local residents affected by the Tweed flood.

Jenny Hayes Team Koala, NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian, Maria Smart and Member for Tweed Geoff Provest at the Tweed Business Chamber of Commerce breakfast in Tweed Heads with the Premier as Guest speaker.

THE BUSINESS Excellence Awards Tweed Shire (BEATS) will take place on Saturday, July 29, with Tweed businesses receiving some much deserving praise during what has been a tumultuous 2017. BEATS Organiser and Barking Toad owner Toni Zuschke has reflected on the past five years in what she said has been a steep learning curve filled with the joys from local business owners. “Five years ago, in my role as the Murwillumbah District Business Chamber president I was appointed as a Councillor, representing the Tweed Area, on the Northern Rivers Regional Advisory Council (RAC),” Toni said. “This NSW Business Chamber run council initiates and facilitates innovative projects and programs that improve and sustain business performance in the region. “At one of these meetings I discovered that the Tweed Shire was the only Shire in the seven LGA’s in the Northern Rivers that did not have an Awards program. “So our MDBC board decided that we would have a go at holding our own and the BEATS was established to celebrate business excellence in the Tweed.” Toni said the first year was the toughest as the group did not have a benchmark, operational plan, no processes, procedures or sponsors. “It was a lot of hard work establishing the first event,” she said. “We held it at the Tweed Civic Centre and it was a canape style event. We had some great entertainment and it was a really fun night. We knew that we could improve the event and so we looked at ways to polish it. “Ju Ju’s restaurant have catered for four years and do an amazing job preparing the three course meal for 200 guests and Natasha from Affordable wedding and event hire transforms the Murwillumbah Civic Centre with amazing décor and elegant ambiance. “Everyone that I have spoken to are super excited and considering what the Tweed Business community has endured recently due to Cyclone Debbie, I believe that they are all looking forward to supporting each other with accolades,” she said. “There are 20 categories this year which is more that we have ever had so the red carpet will be busy. “Once again the gala event will be a ‘Totally Tweed’ event showcasing our talented and diverse stable of businesses. It is truly a night where Tweed Business have their chance to shine.”

Gold Coast Airport master plan approved Flu shot for August

THE GOLD Coast Airport (GCA) has welcomed the Federal Government’s official approval of its 2017 Airport Master Plan, which includes plans to relocate the main runway up to 300 metres south to complete the airport’s instrument landing system (ILS) and assist aircraft to land during heavy rain, low visibility or at night.

The plan also outlines a range of new facilities at the airport including a newly proposed undercover parking lot, airport bridges and extensions to taxiways and aprons for additional aircraft movements. However, the approval of the GCA Master Plan does not authorise any major development of the airport. Such developments require additional community consultation and approval by the Federal Government through the Major Development Plan process. According to the plan, during the next two decades the number of passengers arriving at the Gold Coast Airport will rise from six million people currently per year to around 16 million people, making the airport one of Australia’s busiest. The Weekly researched the Master Plan 2017 and found that if you live in Banora Point there are currently 50 flights a day over the 70-decibel (dB) noise threshold. The 70dB threshold is calculated as the level of a noise event likely to interfere with conversation, or listening to radio or television, with the fabric of a house attenuating an average of 15dB. However, by 2047 there are parts of Banora Point and Tweed Heads South that are projected to have 200 flights per day registering above 70dB and parts of Tweed Heads West will rise from 20 to 100 flights per day above the threshold. GCA Chief Operating Officer Marion Charlton said the new Master Plan provided an exciting look into the future of GCA. “The approval of the 2017 Master Plan by the Federal Minister for Infrastructure and Transport the Hon. Darren Chester MP is an important stepping stone in ensuring Gold Coast Airport continues to grow as an economic and aviation gateway to the south east Queensland and northern New South Wales regions,” Ms Charlton said. “The Master Plan provides a guide to the development of airport facilities, infrastructure and land uses to meet the future requirements of the aviation industry and the communities we serve for the next twenty years.

AUGUST IS traditionally the worst month for influenza on the Far North Coast according to the Northern NSW Local Health District, who is urging Tweed residents to consider vaccination against this year’s flu.

“It is particularly focused on growth in new aviation infrastructure and commercial facilities over the next five years including the continued expansion of the terminal and additional aircraft parking stands. “Master planning for the airport has also taken into account the future introduction of heavy and light rail facilities. Whilst this is a medium to long term prospect, planning has occurred to ensure that future stations are highly accessible within the terminal precinct. The Master Plan also has provision for a high quality hotel development. “In line with our previous Master Plans, we will continue to commit to preserving approximately 25 per cent of the airport lease area for conservation purposes through the Cobaki Environment Precinct.” The announcement also follows the airport’s announcement that it had appointed Ron Brent as the new Chairman of the Community Aviation Consultation Group (CACG). Mr Brent joins the CACG with an extensive background in aviation and more specifically aircraft noise, having previously been Australia’s first federal government appointed independent Aircraft Noise Ombudsman. The CACG helps facilitate greater community consultation between the airport and its community stakeholders, and is used to exchange information and provide feedback on aspects relating to airport operations, development activities, and their associated impacts on the community.

Each year up to one-in-five people in NSW contract influenza, with between 800 to 1000 residents across the state dying from flu-related illnesses. Vaccination is free for those in high-risk groups including those with chronic conditions, the elderly, pregnant women and Aboriginal people. The North Coast Public Health Unit, which covers the area from Laurieton in the south to the Queensland border in the north, has received 393 flu notifications in the first six months of this year including 174 notifications in June. Director of North Coast Public Health, Paul Corben, said the flu season was expected to peak in the coming weeks. “Now is a good time to get vaccinated if you haven’t already done so,” Mr Corben said. This year’s flu vaccine covers the four influenza strains circulating in Australia. “Flu vaccination is free for higher-risk groups including pregnant women, people with certain chronic medical conditions – such as severe asthma, diabetes or heart disease – and Aboriginal people aged six months to five years, or over 15 years,” Mr Corben said. “Vaccination is the best protection against seasonal influenza. Those eligible for a free vaccine should make an appointment with their local doctor as soon as possible. Other people can see their GP or chemist.” People are encouraged to visit their family doctor first, or talk to their pharmacist if they are experiencing flu-like symptoms and to stay home to recover to prevent the spread of infection to others. You can also use HealthDirect on 1800 022 222. This service is available day and night and will connect you with a health professional who can provide safe and practical healthcare advice.

House prices slowing in parts of Tweed THE TWEED real estate market appears to be showing signs of slowing down at the top end of the market, whilst suburbs that are more affordable have seen rapid growth since the beginning of the year. The most expensive Tweed real estate is located on the coast with Casuarina houses topping the list at a median price of $912,000 followed by Kingscliff at $855,000. One year ago Casuarina houses experienced a 12 month growth of 12 per cent whilst Kingscliff grew by 15 per cent. Over the past 12 months Casuarina homes have lost one per cent whilst Kingscliff homes have increased by four per cent. In the most recent quarter Casuarina homes dipped 3.8 per cent whilst Kingscliff home lost 0.3 per cent. Three years ago the median house price in Kingscliff was $615,000 which was $240,000 less than today’s median price whilst the median Casuarina home was $234,500 cheaper three years ago ($677,500). With high prices at the northern end of the Tweed Coast, areas that are at the lower end of the market have seen rapid growth although families now need more than $600,000 to purchase a median house on the Tweed coast. The median house price in Pottsville has increased by 13.8 per cent over the past 12 months and 4.8 per cent over the past quarter to a median price of $625,000, an $80,000 increase from 12 months ago and $150,000 from three years ago. Bogangar house prices have increased over the quarter by 3.5 per cent and 8 per cent over 12 months to a median price of $600,000. Coastal units have seen mixed growth with Pottsville units having the highest quarterly (8.2 per cent) and yearly growth (12 per cent) to a median price of $435,000, an increase of $80,000 since June 2014. Casuarina units grew just over five per cent in the past year with most of this growth

in the past three months to a median price of $475,000 whilst Kingscliff units only increased by $5,000 in the past year. Bogangar units are the most affordable on the coast priced at a median of $393,000, losing almost 5 per cent in the quarter and growing 2 per cent in 12 months. Murwillumbah house prices have increased substantially over the past year (13 per cent) to a median price of $430,000 and a quarterly increase of 4.5 per cent. Despite the flood, South Murwillumbah house prices managed to make a small increase of 1.4 per cent over the year to a median price of $465,000. Popular Tweed Valley villages have seen exceptional growth with Uki median house prices increasing 26 per cent to $538,000, Tyalgum increasing 39 per cent to $495,000 and Tumbulgum 14 per cent to $492,000.

Australia first autism centre located at Tweed End of an era for HSV

A GROUNDBREAKING new centre at Tweed Heads is helping children and families cope with severe cases of autism and is the first Centre of Autism and Neurodevelopment (AusCan) in Australia. Situated at 36 Beryl Street, Tweed Heads, the updated centre, which was previously known as the Brain, Mind and Memory Centre, is now expanding its focus with additional services under the National Disability Insurance Scheme. 10-year-old Brock Shanks had been struggling with severe behavioural and phycological complications for much of his life. His mother Nicky told The Weekly she had tried a lot of different treatments including medications and although they provided some relief, the incidents and issues surrounding his conditions would continually return. “We were at a loss for what to do,” she said. “But when we found out about the neurodevelopment program through at the Tweed Heads centre, we decided the give it a go.” The results have been “amazing” Mrs Shanks said and Brock is now closer to living a happy and struggle free life. Managing Director Dr Rustam Yumash said he uses a complex system of monitoring brain signals and finds ways to connect parts of the brain that were previously untrained in order to open up new pathways. “We essentially retrain parts of the brain and activate parts in order to work together,” He said. Growing demand for streamlined autism and related services has spurred an experienced team of psychology and neuroscience experts to introduce the first Tweed-based Centre for Autism

and Neurodevelopment (AusCan). AusCan is led by qualified professionals and is NDIS approved to provide a range of complementary services that address a child’s brain development from the early stages of an autism or neurodevelopmental diagnosis. The centre draws on both established and emerging practices that are backed by a substantial bed of evidence-based research. Its approach of bringing neurodevelopment and behavioural therapies together is an Australian first and enables families to isolate and target areas of concern from a multidisciplinary capacity. AusCan Clinical Director Nerida Saunders said the centre offers a welcoming and supportive environment for families facing the challenges of a diagnosis. “When a child receives a diagnosis the emotions are unfathomable,” Mrs Saunders said. “This is followed by information overload in an attempt to discern the best course of action amidst the internet noise and professional advice. “It is of no surprise that most families who come to us feel nothing short of overwhelmed and often defeated,” she said. “Our approach aims to relieve the stress. We assess each individual on their specific needs and introduce families to a range of therapy options with guidance and direction from qualified professionals in the area of neurodevelopment and psychology. “Our environment is inclusive and supportive. It is filled with like-minded families and inspirational stories that help create a positive pathway for parents and caregivers.

“We are driven by the belief that a diagnosis is not a life sentence, and we’ve seen first-hand at how effective our therapies can be.” AusCan is home to therapies such as neurofeedback, auditory training, Transcranial Direct Stimulation (tDCS) and psychology and counselling services. The centre also engages with other complementary service providers to ‘activate the brain to enhance a child’s capacity to learn’. The centre’s overarching service model addresses the whole family and the impact a diagnosis can have on each individual family members. Programs can be implemented in isolation or in conjunction to therapies such as Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA) to potentially improve the therapy outcomes. “The brain is an amazing and flexible tool and there is literally no limitations on what can be achieved. This belief is central to our work and we continue to work with universities and international research to source proven and relevant therapies,” Ms Saunders continued. “AusCan represents a vehicle that can potentially expand awareness of key neurological therapies to those who could benefit from them the most. We have already witnessed positive, if not life-changing results.” AusCan is based in Tweed Heads with potential for roaming consulting services.

Sharp Holden said hello and goodbye to the limited edition HSV this week as the car travels west.

HOLDEN LOVERS are drooling over the last Holden Special Vehicle (HSV) ever, which is also attracting some enthusiastic buyers from across NSW. The landmark final all-Australian car is the last of the line and has become an instant classic at Sharp Holden Tweed Heads. The car pictured was snapped up by a collector from Camden, NSW, his first ever new car purchased and one that will join his collection of classic cars. The HSV in signature Spitfire Green will be transported in container on a truck for a 10-hour journey to Camden. When it arrives, it will be carefully stored in a shed for a decade or more before the real Holden lovers emerge. Currently worth more than $125,000, it’ll be interesting to see the figure these will be selling for in 10, 20 and 50 years’ time. Back in March, a 1970 Holden HT GTS350 Monaro sold for $312,000 on the Gold Coast, breaking records. Meanwhile the Sharp Holden sales team said they still have a HSV GTSR Maloo available, as well as recently receiving five new ranges of cars including the latest Holden Astra sedan, Kia Picanto, Suzuki Swift and new Honda Civic Hatch and Honda CR-V.

The People You Meet... with Fran Rabbitts IN THE 1970s when the concept of living sustainably brought attention worldwide there was also a growing awareness of the importance of conserving Australia’s natural heritage. It was also when Chillingham residents Erwin and Adrienne Weber met. It was a meeting of minds when the two discovered they had much in common, a love of art, design, exploring nature and the desire to live a sustainable life. They met in their 20s, Erwin was studying Architecture at the University of NSW and also worked for architects whilst Adrienne was studying Interior Design, later gaining a Masters degree in Social Ecology. “This was a time of great change with a growing interest from young people in sustainable living,” Erwin said. “We believed that this was achievable through good design. Living lightly on the earth using free warmth and light from the sun, solar power and hot water could meet family needs and achieve a comfortable life style.” While in Sydney, Erwin’s flair for design had the opportunity to change the face of

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Sydney’s famous Manly waterfront where multistorey apartments began to alter the skyline. Manly Council changed the building guidelines when people realised that more and more high rise apartments would lead to loss of harbour views and access to sunshine. Erwin’s vision was for low rise buildings to follow the contours of the foreshore. His Fairlight apartments which featured landscaped rooftop gardens and barbeque areas became a benchmark and can still be seen from the Manly ferry today. His commissions kept coming in but their long range plan was to relocate to the country. When they did they chose the Tweed which they had visited on many painting trips, impressed by the area’s natural beauty, abundance of wildlife and the chance to bushwalk in local National Parks. Chillingham was their choice, where they bought a farm, planning to build their home from local and recycled materials to reduce their impact and blend into the environment. Their home, which they designed, is approached via forest-lined access. It is surrounded by verandahs. The north verandah roof converts in winter to allow winter sun into living areas. Inside, high clearstory windows access an abundance of light and winter sunshine, while eaves are designed to totally shade summer sun. The front deck with outdoor dining overlooks the forest clad peaks and gullies of the Border Ranges where whipbirds, parrots and pademelons abound. The emphasis is on connection to nature and most materials such as timber and stone were sourced on site. Their approach to design is one of utilising

natural renewable resources. “We are energy, water and sewerage independent,” Erwin said. “Composting toilets save thousands of litres of water so we are self sufficient in water. “Our approach is one of practicality, we generate solar electricity made effective by passive solar house design and energy efficient appliances. “We are not connected to the electricity grid and don’t have electricity or water bills. “Now that photovoltaic systems are cheaper and more efficient than ever, solar is definitely the way of the future.” Outside the kitchen on the north-facing deck is the parabolic solar cooker. When it is sunny the kettle is always simmering. They

use the curved stainless steel reflector to focus the sun’s heat to cook everything from rice and soup to casseroles. On the verandah, under the handrail, Erwin has built a solar drying cupboard using the principle that hot air rises. It is used for drying clothes, fruit, herbs, weeds and defrosting frozen food. On the rooftop there is a purpose designed passive solar vent painted black to expel warm air and cool the interior during summer. A simple rope pulley allows this vent to be closed during winter months when the slow combustion stove is on. In total the Weber’s home, which can be adjusted much like a sailing boat, provides seasonal, year round comfort.

O Heart Festival launches with grand vision

Round Mountain Girls UK bound during the March floods. It will include fundraising for the Mayoral Flood Recovery Fund. This fund continues to support those who lost so much during this disaster. See website for raffle and fundraising details. www.oheartfest.com The Raison d’etre of the Festival is to educate people to conscious awareness, through a variety of events and activities that enliven the body, mind and spirit. There will be education around sustainability, and eco awareness, organic food growing, yoga and meditation, sound healing workshops, beekeeping and alternative wellness presentations, environmental movie screenings and stalls. And of course, music on a variety of stages throughout the village all weekend. There will be handmade arts and craft stalls, alternative health and wellbeing stalls at the Tyalgum Hall on the Saturday, as well as through the village along the main street businesses and the grounds of Celestial Dew Guest House. The Tyalgum Energy Project will have an interactive pop up in the new courtyard next to the Tyalgum General Store. On the Sunday there will be a special Garden concert with Tyalgum’s very own indie folk band The Heart Collectors held at The Garden of Light at 2.30pm, and a Sunday Bazaar of assorted at Celestial Dew from 9am-12 noon. For all program and event activities head to oheartfest.com or follow on www.facebook. com/oheartfest.

If Mumford and Sons, The Pogues and Metallica had a threeway lovechild it would be a Round Mountain Girl. With four albums behind them, and coined in the press as the ‘finest purveyors of Celtabillypunkfolkrootsgrass in the southern hemisphere, they are capable of taking you to places you didn’t know existed. Fast and furious, tender and humourous, great playing, great songs. You’ll forget you’ve got a mortgage, forget your dog’s just died and that the ice caps are melting as you get carried along on the wave of euphoria they generate.

AN EXCITING new festival has been launched in the Northern Rivers. The O Heart Festival is a three day conscious living, Indie folk music event held throughout Tyalgum Village from the Friday, August 25 through to Sunday, August 27 finishing with a Garden Concert on the Sunday. The Official Opening of the Festival will be at 9am on the Saturday with a ‘Procession of the Bells’ walk either side of the main street (make sure you bring your percussion instruments). The procession will start at the old Norco butter factory and go all the way up to the Tyalgum Community Hall for the official Welcome to Country by Mleeka Hart, from the Midginbul Cultural Centre, followed by representatives from Council and Natascha Wernick from Creative Caldera. “There are some very high profile workshop instructors and teachers within the areas of sustainability, holistic wellness and environmentalism, who we are looking forward to welcoming to year’s O Heart Festival,” said Festival Committee member Kirra Springs. Workshop presenters include internationally acclaimed singer and actor Michael Cormick who will be giving workshops in Sound Healing, as well as presentations by Sonam Rigzin, special translator for the Gyoto Monks of Tibet. The non-profit festival is a culmination of efforts of inspired local people. All of whom have come together to help rebuild and restore the hearts of those who have suffered

THE ROUND Mountain Girls have had a big year already and now they’re heading to the UK for this year’s Beautiful Days Festival. They opened 2017 with a new album, a national tour of their homeland and a main stage slot at Australia’s iconic Bluesfest (Byron Bay) sharing the stage with Santana, Jethro Tull, Buddy Guy and Zac Brown. They’ve been keeping some pretty heavyweight company recently and now they’re heading to the UK for the very first time, having bludgeoned their way to the top of the Australian festival scene.

PARIS CAN WAIT The Coppola family has cinema in their blood. Francis Ford being the master film-maker that we all know, his daughter Sofia following suit, his son Roman being a major scriptwriter and now his wife directing her first feature film at 80 years of age..! Eleanor Coppola is an accomplished artist and documentary maker – in fact her Hearts of Darkness, the backstage documentary that she filmed during the production of Apocalypse Now, offers an extraordinary insight of one of the most difficult and important films of our times. However, Eleanor waited another 25 years before embarking on Paris Can Wait, the first feature film directed and written by her. In an interview after the release of the move, in a jokingly self-deprecating tone she said: “I am this housewife who suddenly decided to write and direct a film”.

The film’s plot is somewhat auto-biographical: In 2009 Eleanor was accompanying Francis to the Cannes Film Festival when she fell ill and decided to stay behind and rest as he traveled on to Budapest. A French associate of Francis’ offered to drive her to the Paris airport. But what should have been a seven-hour trip turned into a three-day adventure filled with wine, truffles and sweeping vistas. Her platonic road trip inspired the making of Paris Can Wait, a romantic drama about a woman married to a Hollywood heavyweight who embarks on a three-day road trip with a flirty Frenchman.

HI ALL, welcome back to Local Sounds, it’s been three months since my last column which has been on hold due to the major flood that affected many homes and businesses in and around Murwillumbah and the Tweed region. We have been busy with the rebuild of our business Tweed Creative Studios as have many others. I’m so glad it is finally completed and we can get back to following the amazing musicians that live and work in this area. I am so excited to announce that entries have just opened for this year’s North Coast Entertainment Industry Awards (NCEIA) awards. The NCEIA Dolphin Music Awards are an annual iconic local music event, and since 1991, they have uncovered musical talent that has gone on to big careers in the music business. Last year I was honoured to partake as the host of the awards night, it was a pleasure to hand out the awards to the many deserving local musicians including our very own Matty Rogers and Tupenny Opera. This is what they had to say about what winning the awards did for their music profile. Burringbar musician Matty Rogers won in two prestigious categories in 2016, and it proved a stepping stone for him to play both Falls Festival and Bluesfest. Boosted by his local support base, Matty is now taking his music further afield. Murwillumbah musicians Tupenny Opera said winning the Dolphin Award was a moral boost. “Sure, the prize of some recording time with a producer was great, and we’ll be using that to kickstart a new CD recording early next year after returning from Europe,” the group said.

“But given that our music is a little bit ‘niche’, recognition from within the music industry means a lot. “It’s also nice for the CV when applying for festivals and grants.” It’s easy to enter and you can pick up some great prizes and accolades among the local music community, which will again be up for grabs for entrants in 23 song categories. The awards are open to all original recording artists, songwriters and composers and video producers, both amateur and professional, living in the (02) 66 telephone area code. For details go to www.nceia.org.au, and be quick as Entries close on Friday 8 September. If you need any help or advice to enter Drop in or Call Tweed Creative Studios (02) 6672 5556, 1/19 Buchanan Street, Murwillumbah, turn at the Caltex on Tweed Valley Way.

30 NRL Tipping Competition Thursday July 27 - 2017

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Things are heating up SIX ROUNDS TO GO and things are heating up. The Raiders haven’t helped themselves going down to Melbourne and Ricky wasn’t happy. Again. Spot 7 and 8 will be an interesting mix. The Dragons looked gone and then produce 50 against a third placed Manly. Alarm bells will be ringing on the North Shore this week. I still think Penrith have got enough in them to feature and ruffle some feathers. The tackle by Sia Soliola on the champion fullback Billy Slater was not a good look. It wasn’t malicious, however, it was late, high and careless. He should have been sent off. Only 5 players have been sent off in the last 5 years. It seems a real easy out to just penalise and place on report. Doesn’t help the team who lose their player due to concussion for a game or two. Soliola will get weeks and he has to. The Women in League round is a great

concept and I was a massive fan of the Roosters gesture to put the name of a special woman in the players lives across the front. Really classy touch from the chooks. The debut of Matt Dufty from the Dragon’s should give all small players hope. 81kgs and well under six foot he was very impressive on the big stage first up. I was really interested in the interview with Matt Johns on NRL 360 last week about halfbacks and how coach’s of junior sides are coaching the instinctive nature and skill level out of them by ensuring they play to structure and set pieces. It’s always great when a plan comes together but how many tries in the NRL are scored off set pieces? Most of the time its an accurate kick or nice pass or offload that results in a scattered line or a bit of nice footwork on a tired defender. Competing on every play is what is important, it’s the key

element in Origin and the phrase you hear all the time for the 10 weeks of the series. I really believe the basic skills are the key and being able to change your mind based on what’s in front of you is an essential skill for any young player. You have to have a skill set as well as speed strength and stamina, the 4 S’s are a key feature. When you put it all together and a desire to be successful and achieve you are a chance of becoming an NRL footballer. The NRRRL is heating up with highly fancied Cudgen doing a demolition job on fellow finals hunters Casino on Sunday. The front runners Ballina were outgunned by Evans Head and Tweed Coast will struggle without mercurial fullback Guy Langston. Mustangs take on Mullumbimby at home on Sunday. See you at the footy.

Estuary: some really good Jew being caught this week. Live pike, mullet and tailor catching the bigger specimen. Large plastics catching more soapies. Try Tweed south wall at the red marker, blue hole, Barney’s point bridge, hole at the golf course, sea way pipe, north wall sea way and jumpinpin. Big lizards in the mouth at the moment. Try 3 - 7 inch plastics vertically jigged for best result. Tailor, bream, luderick, gt and big eye in the river mouth with the odd small King and AJ hanging amongst them. Drift baits, plastics and small metals working best. A few tailor around Barney’s Point and Boyds Bay bridges. Plastics, vibes and small metals working best. A few luderick schooling up try Ukeribagh Island rock wall, Barney’s point, Dry Dock, Tick Gates, Tally rock wall, Kingy Rock wall. String weed working best this week. Still heaps of bream schooling up. Crab lures working best this week. Beaches. It will be a little had going on the beaches this weekend with the swell getting up. But the westerly is marking casting great. Try and find a well draining gutter at first light. Ganged up pillies and metals still catching most tailor, where big plastics, hard bodied lures and whole beach worms catching the Jew. Special mention to black rock. Some big green backs caught there this week. South wall Kingy fishing well too. If you go fishing this weekend by yourself please let someone know where your going and what your eta is back. Safety is upmost importance.

Featured Business

G’day, my name is Craig Byrnes. I am the owner operator of Casuarina Tree Solutions. I have worked in the arboriculture and tree industry for over 15 years. Whilst most of my recent experience is cutting vegetation around power lines, I grew up in Burringbar on a family farm where I started using chainsaws as a teenager. I then worked in my parents’ nursery business where I developed an understanding and keen appreciation of all things that grow. Six months ago I decided I didn’t want to work for a big company any longer and decided to embark on my own path, starting Casuarina Tree Solutions. My goal is to provide a more professional, tailored service to customers

that is a cut above the average tree lopper business in terms of service, cost and quality of work. No job is too big or small for me. I have extensive experience in a variety of tree cutting jobs that are basic to the larger, more technical removals in difﬁcult, hard-to-reach places. I am attentive to detail, reliable, reasonably priced, tidy, and provide a timely service. I love my work, the outdoors, and helping you achieve the aesthetic goals for your property. So, please contact me at any time on my mobile phone number 0408 344 412. I am more than happy to discuss your property’s needs and the solutions I can provide.

POLICE BEAT

Banora Point man arrested Man wanted following Banora after assaulting girlfriend Point assault and car theft A 27-YEAR-OLD Banora Point man was arrested on the weekend after he allegedly assaulted his girlfriend at Banora Point on Friday, July 21. Police said around 11pm on Friday night he went for a walk with his girlfriend at Woodlands Drive, Banora Point. “During some point the male has allegedly become aggressive and has assaulted the female by punching her to the face and head a number of times,” Police said in a media statement. “The female has become unconscious and an ambulance attended as the male left the scene. “The female was conveyed to the Tweed Heads Hospital where she

was treated for swelling, bruising and soft tissue injuries to her face.” Police managed to find the man several hours later at a Banora Point home where we was arrested following a struggle with police. “After a struggle with police he was conveyed to the Tweed Heads Police Station where he was placed in one of the docks in the charge room,” police said. “The male has allegedly commenced to kick the dock door with such force that the Perspex in the door has shattered.” He was refused bail and charged with Assault Occasioning Actual Bodily Harm, Resisting Police and Malicious Damage. He will appeared before Tweed Heads Local Court on July 24.

Man stumbles out of car and blows four times legal limit A 45-YEAR-OLD Tweed Heads South man will appear in court next month after he was busted driving more than four times the legal limit at Tweed Heads South last week. Police said at about 4.50pm on Tuesday, July 18 they spotted a black Holden ute travelling west on Dry Dock Road, Tweed Heads South. “Police attempted to stop this vehicle for the purpose of a random breath test, however the driver al-

legedly refused to stop,” police said in a media statement. “The vehicle was followed for some time eventually stopping outside the Colonial Tweed Caravan Park. The male driver was seen to stumble out of the vehicle.” He returned a positive breath test, was arrested, and on further breath analysis at Tweed Heads Police Station returned a reading of 0.210. His drivers licence was suspended and he will appear before Tweed Heads Local Court on August 7 for high-range drink driving.

Splendour bender goes down with only minor issues DRUG BUST numbers were down at this year’s Splendour in the Grass festival with 267 detected in possession when compared to 323 in 2016. Those nabbed with small quantities of cannabis were again cautioned this year with 76 when compared to 80 in 2016, while those with ice, MDMA and cocaine were issued with court attendance notices. Fence jumpers were again a feature, with around 65 criminal infringement notices issued for trespassing on the festival grounds without holding valid ticket. Police said they were pleased with the behaviour of the majority of festival-goers, although highlighted violence was an issue after a 26-yearold man was charged with six offenses including assaulting several police officers. More than 32,500 people attended the festival at Yelgun each day between Friday, July 21, and Sunday, July 23, including tickets to camp on site for 22,500 ticketholders. In addition, 12 people were charged over alleged drug supply. Of note, about 6.45pm yesterday (Sunday 23 July 2017), a 21-yearold Gold Coast man was allegedly found with 60 ecstasy pills. He was arrested and taken to Byron Bay Police Station where he was charged with supply prohibited drug and possess prohibited drug. He was refused bail to appear at Tweed Heads Local Court today (Monday 24 July 2017).

Five people were charged with assault, including a 26-year-old man who allegedly entered a fenced stage area and became violent towards security officers. Police said as they were arresting the man, he allegedly resisted them and assaulted three senior constables. He was taken to Byron Bay Police Station and charged with six offences; behave in offensive manner in a public place, resist officer in execution of duty, assault police officer in execution of duty (x2), assault police officer in execution of duty cause aggravated bodily harm, and intimidate police officer in execution of duty. The man was granted conditional bail to appear at Byron Bay Bail Court on Saturday, July 22, and will next reappear at the same court on Monday, August 21. Police also issued more than 65 criminal infringement notices over alleged trespassing offences after people were detected attempting to enter the event grounds without valid tickets. Tweed/Byron Local Area Commander, Detective Superintendent Wayne Starling, said he was pleased with the overall behaviour of festival-goers at this year’s event. “We work closely with the organisers of Splendour to ensure the festival is safe and fun for event staff, performers and music fans, and are pleased the overwhelming majority of revellers were well-behaved,” Det

Supt Starling said. “It’s disappointing there were still some people who ignored our advice and tried to bring illegal drugs into the event; however, they were intercepted by our drug-detection dogs. “In many cases, charges were laid against those who chose to do the wrong thing and they will now be brought before the courts to address those offences. “We cannot reiterate enough how dangerous these substances can be; they are not only illegal but they can incredibly harmful to your health and in some instances, fatal. “The safety and wellbeing of people attending the festival is our number one priority and we will continue to run operations to help ensure they are safe.”

POLICE ARE appealing for public assistance to locate Aaron Scriven, following a serious assault and vehicle theft at Banora Point on Friday, July 21. He is believed to be driving a stolen white 1998 model Toyota Corolla, registration number DMH23G (NSW). Police said Scriven, aged 22, has outstanding warrants for domestic assaults. He was also arrested by Tweed Police last July for breaching his bail conditions. “Scriven is known to frequent the Northern Rivers area of NSW and would potentially be couch surfing with various associates,” Police said in a media statement. “Recent information suggests he could be heading to relatives in the Grafton and Lake Macquarie ar-

eas.” If any member of the public has information that may assist they can contact Tweed Heads Police Station on 07 5536 0999 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Man found in critical condition at Kunghur

TWEED POLICE said they are continuing inquiries to identify an injured man who was found on the side of a road near Uki on Sunday, July 23. Police said it was about 7.30pm when a passing motorist on Kyogle Road noticed a spot fire and injured man on the side of the road. The man, who had injuries to his face and abdomen, was treated at

the scene by the motorist and a local doctor. The unidentified man was then airlifted to Royal Brisbane Hospital where he remains in a critical condition. Police are urging anyone with information in relation to this incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers online reporting page: https://nsw.crimestoppers.com.au/

Tweed Police continue crack down on rival bikie gangs TWEED POLICE have seized cash, a rifle scope and a small amount of drugs during a raid at a home of an associate of the Rebels Outlaw Motorcycle Gang (OMCG) in the state’s north. Officers from Tweed/Byron Local Area Command formed Strike Force Walenore to proactively target OMCGs in response to recent violent acts believed to be related to tension between rival clubs. They are being assisted by the State Crime Command’s Gangs Squad’s Strike Force Raptor, Public Order and Riot Squad, the Police Dog Unit and Queensland Police attached to Taskforce Maxima. As part of their ongoing strategies, police said they carried out searches for firearms, firearm parts and ammunitions at two properties of which the occupants were subject to Firearm Prohibition Orders (FPOs) this week. During a search of the home, which was of an associate of the Rebels OMCG at Commissioners Creek on Monday, July 24, police said they located a rifle scope, a laser pointer, more than $6000 cash and an amount of cannabis. Inquiries into those items are continuing A search was also conducted at the home of a member of the Lone Wolf OMCG at Terranora on Tuesday, July 24, with a 39-year-old man issued a warning for consorting. Tweed/Byron Local Area Command Crime Manager, Detective Inspector Brendon Cullen, said operations like this one would continue to target and disrupt the activities of OMCG members and their associates. “These operations are a direct consequence of the disregard that OMCG members have had for the community and we will continue to endeavour to bring their behaviour in line with community expectations,” Det Insp Cullen said. “This will be an ongoing operation in conjunction with the Queensland Police Service to keep our community safe.” Strike Force Raptor was established by State Crime Command’s Gangs Squad in 2009. Anyone with information to assist police is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or report it directly to detectives via the Strike Force Raptor online reporting page: https://www1.police.nsw.gov.au/Default.aspx?id=49.

Bowls Notes THE PRESTIGIOUS Johnston/Dignan Shield, an annual competition since the inaugural contest way back in 1989, once again produced a great day of entertainment as Northern Rivers East (NRE), Northern Rivers West (NRW), Clarence River (CRD) and Tweed Byron Districts (TBD) vied for supremacy. Formatted on three games of 15 ends with three teams of four players from each district, the tournament is also the platform for selection in the Zone One side to contest the State Inter-Zone Championship at Port Macquarie on the weekend commencing September 9. With team skips Troy Makin, Michael Turner and Phil Bennet at the helm, the lads performed superbly throughout all games. Round 1 against NRE saw the side score a 2 + 11 with Turner’s team assisting with a huge 17 shot margin. Round two, with NRW the opposition,

with Judy Tuckey

saw the Turner and Makin teams claim victory with good margins (team Turner with another huge + 16) while Bennett’s crew were unlucky to go down by a mere one shot, with the side collecting a further 2 + 17 to add to the leader board. Round three, the last round, with the lads up against CRD certainly proved tough going. Makin and Turner’s teams both lost with minimal margins. However, Bennett’s troops rose to the occasion with a good win and margin to balance the ledger. Overall results for the competition resulted in Tweed Byron claiming the Shield with a 4 + 27, relegating CRD to second place on 4 + 15. Well done Tweed Byron lads. Hats off to District Selectors Barry Sheppard, Brian Moore and Danny Taylor on their excellent choice of high performance bowlers to represent the Tweed Byron District at this contest. Special mention should also be made that

Between the Flags Cudgen Headland SLSC – Keith Kennedy WE record the loss of Max Godbee OAM who will be missed by the Surf Life Saving Community. He joined Yamba SLSC in 1952. He was honoured with Life Membership of his Club, Far North Coast (FNC) Branch, NSW and Australia. He served FNC in many capacities including Superintendent for six years, 1969-1970 to 1974-1975, and President 1986-1987 and 1989-1990. He was an outstanding coach of the Yamba R & R and March Past teams. In Masters competition in sprint and flags he won 10 gold at World and 14 Australian medals. As a journalist he authored the 100 year history of Yamba in 2008 and retired as the Sporting Editor of the Grafton “Examiner”. Also we record the recent passing of Brian Sherwood who gained his bronze

medallion on November 12, 1950. There were 12 bronze medallions gained that season and membership rose to 33. Brian was a member of Tom Eady’s belt race team who went on to win five Point Danger belt titles. Brian teamed with Hec Smith to win the ski rescue race in the Cudgen Jubilee Carnival and was a member of the R & R team. He played rugby league with Cudgen and was a Tweed League representative. The Clubhouse has had a spruce up with painting, new furniture and some structural alterations. Thanks to the Old Boys Association for the restoration and signage on the surf boat oars, which now adorn the bar and from which our display of other clubs competition caps hang in the lounge. The Old Boys mid-year meeting will be held this Saturday afternoon. Media statements

SURFING HAS LOST one of it’s pioneers, with the passing of legend surfer/shaper/larrikin, Joe Larkin. Joe was farewell on Tuesday, a man who started shaping plywood toothpicks in the late 1940’s, using his carpentry skills, and beginning a career as one of Australia’s first surfboard manufacturers, moving from the hollow plywood boards, then from balsa wood to foam. Joe made his first board at 15 years of age with his mates in his Dad’s garage, and the later progressed to making a quid with his plywood okanuis. He really hand shaped, his first lot of tools for surfboard making being a saw, smoothing planer, a german jack, and heaps of hand held sandpaper. No machines involved at all. Joe then stepped ahead of the trend and moved the the sand bottomed points of Queensland in the early 1960’s and many legends of surfing and shaping passed through Joe’s factory at Kirra, including Peter Townend, Michael Peterson, Wayne “Rabbit” Bartholomew, Andy Mac, and Terry Fitzgerald just some of the legendary surfers that have something to thank Joe for. After chatting to my mum last week, she

with Terry ‘Tappa’ Teece

told me that Joe made my Dad his first ever surfboard, and I don’t think there was many surfers of that era that did not have a board from Joe Larkin, or had a board from his factory. Joe’s boards have been a prized possession of many a surfer and before his battle with cancer he had gone back to shape some classics at his factory beloved shed Bogengar. Joe was inducted into the Surfing Australia Hall of Fame, but if you saw Joe at his beloved Caba Pub, he was just like everyone else, and did not want or chase the limelight. He loved a beer and a joke, and would always be up for a yarn with anyone. The last work you can see of Joe is the on the History Channel documentary “Men of Wood and Foam” which follows the stories of Joe and the other pioneers of the surfboard industry. All the shapers and surfers owe a debt of gratitude to Joe, he was a true pioneer and Australian legend. The Cabarita Pub was where he was farewelled on Wednesday, and his legacy will live on.. The picture you see here is Joe at work at his Kirra Factory in the 1960’s. VALE Joe!!!

Outstanding result for Under12s netball THE MURWILLUMBAH Marbles have emerged victorious in the Under 12s Development Squad Netball Tournament, which took place at Mudgeeraba hinterland on Sunday, July 23. The Marbles battled through a total of seven games to be crowned winners on the day, in what coaches Sue O’Connor and Pam Hartley said was sterling effort by the team. “This win is such a credit to the efforts of the Marbles, all their hard work has really paid off,” Mrs O’Connor said. She said the side played “extremely

well as a team” with individual stand out performance in the centre and goals. “Eve Sharp (centre court) and Felicity Nobel (goal shooter) were outstanding, but really the entire side played an amazing seven games,” she said. “During the last game against the Ormeau Jewels, the Marbles were down at halftime but the team rallied and never gave up fighting back to win 12-8, which was an amazing effort.” The Under 14s Murwillumbah Magic played off for second place in their final, but were downed by one point and placed them in third overall.

Awards for Cudgen champions MEMBERS OF Cudgen SLSC have taken home several medals from the Queensland Pool Rescue Championships on the weekend (July 22 and 23) and will represent NSW at the upcoming Interstate Pool Rescue Championships. Anthea Warne took home an incredible five gold medals and one bronze. She has also been selected to represent the NSW team in the Interstate Pool Rescue Championships in Adelaide with the competition beginning on Friday, August 4 with the Australian Championships to follow and continue over the weekend. Anthea’s brother Joseph has also been selected to represent NSW at the championships in the Under 14 age group. Chantal Luxton also represented the club and placed 5th, 7th and 8th in her events whilst Brendan Piccini competed in his first state carnival and did well against a strong field. Both Anthea and Chantal will also represent Australia Royal Life Saving at the Commonwealth Pool Rescue Championships in Durban, South Africa, next month.

rescues. One notable incident at Duranbah Beach he paddled through large waves to assist three people who were in difficulty after their boat overturned near the mouth of the Tweed River. Demonstrating not only his knowledge of the local conditions to get out through the challenging waves it also highlighted how calm he is under pressure, waiting with the patients until a secondary boat was able to be launched and return them safely to shore. In a separate incident also at Duranbah Jayden worked in conjunction with multiple agencies including the Queensland Support Jet Skis to rescue two people who were part of a large group struggling in a powerful rip current. Apart from his commitments to the ALS, Jayden is also a keen surf lifesaver patrolling at both Cudgen Headland and Salt SLSC where he has been a volunteer for six seasons. “Jayden is a model Lifeguard that any service would want on their team, and this is a richly deserved honour,” said ALS Tweed Supervisor Brent Lethbridge. “He has an impeccable work ethic, enjoyed an exceptional season on the beach and is always willing to help out.”

Meanwhile local lifeguard Jayden Mandall who helped rescue several people on Tweed beaches over the summer has been awarded Tweed Lifeguard of the Year and is in the running for NSW Lifeguard of the year, to be announced next month. It’s been a busy 12 months for the popular and well respected Lifeguard who not only patrolled some of the Far North Coast’s most challenging beaches but also did a stint in the UK where he learnt plenty of new skills and techniques to bring home. In season 2016/17, Jayden has taken on a mentoring role to the new influx of Lifeguards and his leadership skills and integrity has been widely praised.

Casuarina striker Alex Barnes carries the ball forward towards the circle past a Waratah Bobcats player on Saturday, July 15

Men’s results

Casuarina faced the Griffith Roosters in Murwillumbah on Saturday in a sea-sawing game that ended in a 3-3 draw. The Kingscliff Stingers had a very good 2-0 win over Mudgeeraba which gives them three wins in a row. Hayden Mangleson scored one of Kingscliff’s goals and was also named player of the match. Captain Andrew Ridgway scored Kingscliff’s other goal, his seventh in three games. Kingscliff were very solid in defence which gave them the launching platform to score in the second half to notch a very good win against a very good team. Murwillumbah Vipers went down 5-3 in a hard fought game against the much more fancied Labrador team. Murwillumbah scored first with a goal to Michael Campbell but Labrador rallied and went to the break 3-1 up. Murwillumbah scored two more times in the second half to be really in the game but Labrador came home stronger and won 5-3. The local derby on the coast saw Burleigh win 3-1 over Capri. Waratah Bobcats had the bye.

Women’s results

The Waratah Falcons came out firing against Casuarina as they went to a 3-0 score in the first 20 minutes. The score should have been four as Emily Hertherington got a runaway and dragged the Casuarina goal keeper beautifully but then missed an open net. Casuarina hit back and scored a late goal to make it 3-1 at half time. In the second half the Waratahs were too fast and too strong and scored another two early goals to make the game out of reach for Casuarina at 5-1. Casuarina never gave up and pressed hard to score two goals and end the game 5-3. Emily Hertherington scored four goals with the other to Chloe Sadler and both goal keepers had brilliant games. The Murwillumbah versus Mullumbimby game has been deferred to another date as both teams have players away representing in the Masters games. Kingscliff had the bye. The Gold Coast women’s teams have also deferred their games as they too have players at the Masters.
