Power Independence with Solar Batteries

Over half of all Australian homes will have batteries for energy storage in the next ten years... The new trend in solar power is to include battery storage and generate enough power for day and night use. With energy prices rising by 17% or more on the 1st of July, the intelligent option is to vote with your feet and begin to take control of your own power production with investment in the latest solar energy revolution.

Australia is way behind the world in the development of cheap, renewable energy with the coal and gas lobby blocking any new clean energy development. This is making Australian power costs among the highest in the world, leaving household to fend for themselves using solar power to offset rising electricity costs.

24 Hour Solar Power

With Feed in Tariffs now ridiculously low, there is no point left in sharing solar power with the grid. At 6 cents per kWh it is not equitable to export power when you have to buy your energy back later at 30 cents. Solar Power Battery Storage is the best way to beat the unfair electricity network and create energy independence today. 888 Solar Tek, a local solar company based in the Northern Rivers, is providing revolutionary new technology that slashes the cost of battery storage, providing 24 hour solar power to homes. With custom designs based on your energy use, they maximise the benefits of your investment and deliver a cost effective solution for your power needs. They offer a free energy assessment and are delivering hybrid and off-grid power systems that are much cheaper than buying from the grid.

888

The End of Support for Solar NSW Solar Bonus Ends This Year!

Government subsidies for solar export to the grid will end this year in NSW. If you are you one of the smart people in the Northern Rivers who are benefiting from the 60 cent per kWh export you will need to make plans for the coming changes. Payments under this plan expire at the end of 2016, leaving solar owners with 4 - 6 cents for each kWh exported after then. 20,000 homes in the Northern Rivers will have to install new meters to be able to use the power they now export entirely to the grid. 888 Solar Tek, your local hybrid and off-grid solar experts, have developed a smart migration plan, which will eliminate 80% or more of your ongoing power charges. They can install additional solar panels and battery storage now, to cover all of your daily energy use, slashing power charges.

The Truth About the

Every cent of the Solar Bonus generated by your existing system is collected right up until the end of the scheme, when both system are combined. Your new hybrid solar system allows greater independence and typically pays for itself in 3-5 years. 888 Solar Tek tailor the new solar system around your existing equipment and provide 12 months free monitoring and support. If you have very low electricity usage you may choose to go off the grid altogether to eliminate fixed supply charges that make up a large part of your bill. 888 Solar Tek have new technologies that can operate both on and off the grid. This makes staged transition to energy self-sufficiency cost effective and avoids costly equipment change-over.

REAL Cost of Solar Batteries...

The Gel-acid batteries were much cheaper to buy, lasted longer and could be configured in many different sizes to better match each home's energy use. They do not explode if over charged like Lithium Ion, are compatible with all inverter and charger systems and have a welldeveloped re-cycling program. Gel-acid batteries have been tried and tested over decades and, with fifth generation desulphation technology, are the lowest cost and best value battery available.

Many new battery technologies have leapt into the solar arena and early adaptors have had mixed reports about the real value of their performance. Not all that glitters is gold and some of the best PR campaigns have hidden the real cost of new solar batteries. The real test for new battery technologies is measured by their ability to deliver a cost per stored kWh below grid price. Every battery has a life span in the number of cycles of charge and discharge they can achieve before they lose capacity, with 60% being the standard for end of life. The cost of batteries divided by the cycle life gives the best measure of their value.

888 Solar Tek is the leading supplier of Gel acid batteries and hybrid and off-grid solar systems in the Northern Rivers and one of the few solar companies that offer custom battery sizing based on your power use. They retro-fit batteries to existing systems and provide cost benefit analysis based on your current and projected power costs. With local, personalised service and an ethos to always look after their customers' needs first, 888 Solar Tek are the number one choice for solar battery systems in the Northern Rivers.

Other than the special feeling you get from being the first boy with the new toy, all of the Lithium Ion batteries on offer fail to satisfy, none of them delivering stored energy for less than the cost of buying it direct from the grid. Some like the BYD Mini, featured in recent TV ads on the North Coast, cost over twice as much as buying power from the grid!

Why pay for electricity when it is cheaper to make your own?

888 Solar Tek is the top-selling retailer for solar battery systems in the Northern Rivers. We supply customised new or retrofit systems to match your power use - not a one size fits all package. You get personalised service with free 12 month system monitoring. The electricity grid is a huge monopoly that serves the large generators and retailers. Selling your solar power for 6¢ per kWh or less is unfair! Beat the network by generating and storing all of your own power now. Call us for free, honest advice before you buy anywhere else.

NSW Solar bonus scheme ends this year!

The Sanden EcoÂŽ Hot Water Heat Pump System use up to 78% less energy than conventional electric water heaters. Quicker and easier to install than solar, you get the savings right away. Sanden is the most efficient and eco-friendly hot water heat pump system on the market, offering up to 50% faster heat recovery than its competitors. Call us for all your Solar Hot Water needs on 02 6688 4480.

Only Motoma Gel-acid batteries with an Australian invented de-sulphation device which increases their lifespan by years, deliver a storage cost well below the grid price.

You may not of noticed yet, but your power bill just went up by over 17% on the 1st of July. We all know we are getting ripped off by the electricity networks and that it will only get worse. As the rage grows, many people are seriously looking at getting batteries for their solar systems to be more independent from the bloodsucking grid now.

Dungay development back on the agenda towards the availability of affordable housing within the locality”. “The proposed development will include predominately permanent sites which will provide a form of affordable housing within the locality,” the application reads. “The proposal also contains a number of short term sites at the front of the site that will be used for tourist and short stay accommodation and include sites for caravans.” The removable dwellings are planned to be purchased from the owner, and do not require a development application to be constructed under the provisions of the Local Government (Manufactured Home Estate, Caravan Parks, Camping Grounds and Moveable Dwellings) Regulation 2005. There is no indication of the cost per home, however the plans state the $20-million development price tag includes the cost of the dwellings. “The owner will control the type of moveable dwellings that will be installed within the park with the residents purchasing the dwellings directly from the owner and will then lease the land under the terms of the Land Lease Communities Act,” the application reads. The plans also state that the owners are “unlikely to provide dwellings for rental accommodation”. According to realestate.com.au the property sold for $1,230,500 in December 2015, and plans have been in the process more actively in the past 12 months. The site is zoned RU2 Rural Landscape and the development application details several steps that will be taken to reduce the visual impact of the development. “The proposed development has been designed and will include generous landscape buffers in order to reduce any potential impact of the development on the rural character of the locality,” the application reads.

A CONTENTIOUS plan to develop a 187-site caravan park in the quaint country town of Dungay, at 355 Tomewin Road, is back on the agenda this week. Tweed Shire Council received the $20 million project application on Thursday, June 22, from Wollumbin Common Pty Ltd. The company has plans for the caravan park to include 172 long-term sites and 15 short-term sites which will be developed over five stages. The development has come under intense scrutiny from several Dungay locals, who had previously said they objected to the development’s size due to demands on water and waste management, however most residents agreed a degree of development was positive. The Weekly spoke with one resident who said a community group had been formed to gain a greater understanding of local expectations. The plans propose an onsite effluent treatment and disposal system with drinking water being provided from rainwater tanks and an onsite bore. “The owner is currently endeavouring to purchase the required water access licence for the quantity of water required for the proposed development,” according to the Statement of Environmental Effects prepared by by Coastplan Consulting. “It is also proposed to install an onsite effluent disposal and treatment system which will be located at the rear of the site with the effluent being disposed of by spray irrigation on an area towards the rear of the site.” The plans also offer a community centre, swimming pool, amenities, men’s shed, managers dwelling and community garden for the 27-hectare site. However, these facilities are to be for the exclusive use of caravan park residents only the plan reads. “The owners have considered allowing the community building available for use by the community of Dungay,” the report reads. “However this will be further considered in the future when the building is erected and the owners have had the opportunity to further consult with the local community and will if necessary be subject to a separate development application.” The Tweed Shire currently has a severe shortage of affordable housing and according to the development application “the proposed development will contribute

33-YEAR-OLD Phillip Raymond Becker was charged with the alleged murder of 31-year-old Ace Hall this week, after Hall died of a gunshot wound to the stomach at The Tweed Hospital on Saturday, June 24. Becker was arrested by Queensland Police on Tuesday, June 27, and was extradited to NSW after appearing at the Southport Local Court. He was scheduled to appear at the Tweed Local Court on Wednesday, June 28. Superintendent Wayne Starling praised the efforts of Queensland Police who he said worked in conjunction with NSW Police to locate a Toyota Corolla at a service station on the Mt Lindsay Highway at Jimboomba. The shooting had sparked fears that a bikie turf war was descending on the shire, only to be quashed immediately by Superintendent Wayne Starling as “not connected”. While the victim, Ace Hall, appears to have had connections with known motorcycle gangs, Superintendent Starling was quick to rule out the shooting as some type of revenge act or having a connection with an earlier brawl that broke out between known bikies at the Seagulls Club, at Tweed Heads West, on Wednesday, June 21.

An open letter to our Tweed Shire community

The 2017 April flood was the worst in the history of our Shire. It brought out some of the best in our community with people volunteering and helping each other where they could; and it flushed some of the worst pollution from our catchment into our rivers and ocean. It took out roads and bridges, washed away cars and isolated people for several days. Tragically the effects of the storm took away precious human lives. It was a truly challenging event for all involved. The Northern Rivers region of NSW is identified as a disaster hotspot. It’s clear from the science that we will continue to experience serious and intense flood events with increasing frequency, driven by our changing climate. There are several things we need to do as a community and as individuals to increase our preparedness and manage the risks and try to reduce the damage we all face from these extreme events as best we can. Events such as ex tropical cyclone Debbie place stress on our infrastructure causing it to fail in places. Power, transport, even food and freshwater supplies can be jeopardised. Emergency services and Council services are stretched to their limits by the scale of such events. Knowing this empowers us to be prepared. The Tweed River rose 6.2m at Murwillumbah, on March 31, 2017. In other areas water levels rose well over 10m. If you live near a watercourse, especially if you are new to the area, then you need to pay special attention to where the waters can reach on your property and your neighbour’s property. Discuss a strategy and create a plan on how to cope with a flood event with your neighbours. Always pay attention to severe weather warnings. Take particular care with the following; At Home • Location and storage of fuels and

chemicals. • Maintain a phone list of important contacts – include; SES, police, neighbours, others in surrounding areas and central shops in town. • Storage of electronics and water sensitive valuables are at risk on ground floors. • Where you store your garbage bins should be above floodwaters. • Where vehicles are parked – move to high ground. • Pets and livestock cages – are your animals safe? • Any large unsecured items that could float away – consider where is secure. • Maintain an emergency kit with a food supply (longlife foods) and freshwater (enough for several days and some extra) ensure you have torches a radio and batteries • Don’t let children or teens play in stormwater, even after the flood as receded, hidden dangers remain. • Consider what access you have to higher ground and roads and when you should leave for safety. On the road • Do not drive during an extreme weather event unless absolutely necessary. • If it’s flooded – forget it. • Drive slowly and be aware of debris on the road and potential landslip (even after the event has passed). • Use your headlights on low beam for visibility during heavy rain. • If you must stop on the road immediately turn on your hazard lights. This open letter to our community was put together by Zero Emissions Tweed (ZET) a community-led group with a vision to achieve netzero greenhouse emissions in the Tweed Shire. The groups focus is also to reduce the negative effects of a changing climate on our community. If you think this is something you would like to support we invite you to get involved with ZET.

Mobile coverage appalling

We have resided and operated a home-based consulting business from Shoal Place in Kingscliff continuously over the past nine years. Over this period our mobile coverage has been weak and at times unreliable. We frequently have calls drop out and often have to walk outside our home to receive suitable coverage. Visitors and guests using Telstra have the same problem. We have reported our problems to Telstra on several occasions - the response has been that coverage

in our area is “stretched” and effectively nothing can be done to improve our situation until/unless more infrastructure is available. Cath Hogan, Kingscliff

What about the need for white zones?

In response to reader’s comments about being in a ‘black spot’ in relation to mobile phone coverage I would like to ask when is there going to be an acknowledgment of the need of some people for ‘white zones’? Worldwide studies have shown that 3-10 per cent of the population is electrosensitive, their bodies register symptoms of sickness when exposed to microwaves from mobile phone towers, wifi devices and smart meters. Symptoms range from headaches, insomnia, anxiety, fatigue, depression, lowered immune response, worsening memory, brain fog, heart palpitations, skin burning and tinnitus. These symptoms go away when in a low EMF environment. Some people react severely and become EMF Refugees meaning there is simply nowhere safe for them to go, nowhere they can escape from this dangerous radiation. 100 per cent of the population is affected biologically by EMF pollution. However, like smoking or asbestos, most will not feel the effects for years or even decades. (See www. emfanalysis.com and click on the Health Effects-EHS symptoms tab). How is Telstra going to look after these people as more and more people connect the dots? It’s time now to create white zones in Tweed Shire before it’s too late - in case it isn’t already. Menkit Prince, Uki

Council should come out of the dark ages

I am writing in response to a letter by Andrew Bennett ‘Steps to remove Council prayer welcomed’ in the TVW 22/6/17. Of course the prayer should be removed, we are well and truly out of the ‘dark ages’ and such religious rituals are for places of worship, not Council meetings. Full credit to Deputy Mayor Chris Cherry and all the Councillors voting to make this necessary and welcome change. Alije Birang, Murwillumbah

Why is Council praying?

I could not believe it when I read in your paper that the Tweed Shire Council still pray during their meetings. I thought Council was for important business decisions to be made, not evangelist prayer meetings. If Councillors are looking for guidance they should not be relying on ancient mythology during

More common sense needed for highway driving

Well just as I expected my reply to Speed Limits on the M1 have hit a nerve with some. Such a shame Denise Anderson didn’t put more thought into her ridiculous reply. What I do recommend Denise is for all of us human beings to think of others more instead of just themselves as you do and do what the law states on our roads. It would be beneficial for you to stay in bed on your not so alert days as you mentioned and smell the roses only in your garden and not on our motorways where you are putting numerous lives at risk with your selfish attitude. As for Robbie Wesley well his reply takes stupidity to the next level. Just for the record - I am neither “hypertensive” or a “spoilt young thing” but am a middle aged very proud local lady who comes from a very well respected local family and pride myself on my morals and caring values instilled in me by my amazing parents. Hence the reason I stand firm on my views to do the right thing on our Motorways. We have numerous local people commuting on a daily basis to the Northern Gold Coast and Brisbane areas for work and every hour spent idling on our M1 is an hour less they get to spend with their families. This includes our local transport companies who I see gridlocked every day on the M1 because of incapable and dangerous drivers. It is such a shame common sense, respect and consideration seem to be a thing of the past for so many people like Denise Anderson and Robbie Wesley. Lesley Watt, Tweed Heads

Fed up with motorbikes at Tomewin

I am hoping to raise awareness amongst the hundreds of motorcyclists who ride over our local mountain ranges and through our country roads every weekend, that their deliberately noisy exhausts are driving us nuts! As an occasional motorcyclist myself, I totally understand the fun of riding and the pleasure of the exhaust note.

As a local resident of Tomewin, however, I’m sick of it. I’m sure that plenty of riders are considerate at heart and may not be aware of just how disturbing they are being. I’m reaching out to them to reconsider their actions. There is no excuse for a deliberately noisy, illegal exhaust that is purely for attention. The safety argument is nonsense. If safety was the reason then they would be riding with their lights on and would wear high visibility vests - but you rarely see that, and nor would they race on the mountains and cut corners. I’m sure they wouldn’t like it if someone revved a Harley outside their house for a few minutes at a time, several hundred times a day and through the night when their kids have just gone to bed or after a night duty. Many of us live on farms or in the rainforest for the peace and quiet. It’s not possible around here anymore. These exhausts disturb the residents, the livestock and it must disturb the native animals too. Tomewin is even promoted with T-shirts at a local biker cafe as a “local ultimate riding road”. I would strongly support more police and RTA presence on our mountains to issue defect notices and stop the racing that occurs. Please ride considerately, and if you have a loud exhaust, then go and ride somewhere else because you are not welcome here. Michael Busby, Tomewin

Nominate for Mental Health Prize

The statistics regarding mental health in Australia are both startling and unacceptable. One in three Australians will experience a mental health issue in their lifetime. Suicide is the biggest killer of young Australians and accounts for the deaths of more young people than car accidents. We need to acknowledge those who are doing ground-breaking work in this area. The Australian Mental Health Prize seeks to recognise Australians who have made outstanding c o n t r i bu t i o n s t o e i t h e r t h e promotion of mental health or the prevention and treatment of mental illness in areas such as advocacy, research or service. I would like to encourage clinicians, health professionals and the public at large to nominate the people they feel should be recognised for their work. More information and nomination forms can be obtained from www. australianmentalhealthprize.org.au Entries close on August 31.

Insurance nightmares continue “approximately, “about’ and “estimated” all through the report. “All interpreted in favour of the insurers, we lodged an appeal,” she said. “We have encountered nothing but delaying tactics, to the extent that we are being kept in limbo until July 21, almost four months after the flood, when we are told we will receive the results of the review, which I fully expect (I hope I’m wrong) will necessitate us going to the Financial Ombudsman, which will take up to another eight weeks.” In the meantime, Trish has been house-sitting “here and there for kind friends” while many of the other families in the building have continued living there because they can’t find or afford alternative accommodation. “In some cases that means living with kitchen cupboards, bathroom vanities and doors between rooms that won’t close, mouldy still not quite dry exposed chipboard floors that are threatening to give way under their feet, and leaking roofs (for some of which liability was finally accepted by CHU last week but repairs are yet to take place),” she said. “I used to think that people exaggerated about the callousness and intimidatory tactics of insurance companies but now I know they don’t. “Whatever happened to the old Aussie “fair go”? If NRMA can remember it, why can’t others?” Another resident of 55 William Street, Sam Runnalls, is pictured on the front page with Trish (right) and her daughter Eva. Sam and the family has been forced to live in the unit following the flood with constant battles against mould as well as the floor giving way due to moisture. “The floods were above the flood, which was made of chipboard and is now collapsing,” she said. “We can’t even get any new furniture until we can get the insurance worked out.” “The cupboards have all swollen and need to be replaced and the floor is giving way all the time.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Have you got a story or experience with an insurance claim that you would like to share?

Kingscliff cycleway upgrade MEMBER FOR Tweed Geoff Provest was joined by Minister for Planning Anthony Roberts on Tuesday, June 27, to announce $520,000 to finally connect the entire Tweed Coast to the border via a cycle and walkway. The missing link in the coastal cycleway/walkway network is located on the northern side of Cudgen Creek at Kingscliff and will join Salt and Casuarina. The suspended concrete boardwalk and concrete path will replace the current old timber boardwalk section and asphalt path. The connection means Tweed residents can now ride from Pottsville to the NSW/Qld border using the network. Mr Provest said the announcement was a huge win for the community and will further improve opportunities for both healthy lifestyles and tourism. “The State Government is also investing a further $44,000 on street refuges (concrete islands used for pedestrians between roads),” Mr Provest said. Tweed Shire Council Mayor Katie Milne said she welcomed the funding and cycleway connecting initiative. “The funding of this missing link and the revamp of the cycleway/walkway is more great news for our community,” Mayor Milne said. “It will provide major public access and health benefits by allowing people to more safely and easily walk and ride from one end of the coast to the other.” The boardwalk project is expected to be completed in the 2017/2018 financial year. Funding was also announced for a number of pedestrian improvement facilities at a variety of locations in Tweed Heads and Kingscliff including the Anchorage Island Boardwalk, see page 8. Council will provide 50-50 funding with the NSW Government for the projects.

A RECENT article covering insurance pains following the Tweed flood in The Weekly (June 22, Page 3), has prompted a resident to come forward with a shocking story of what she says is “callous” treatment by insurance companies turning their backs on desperate families. The story came from Trish Reynolds, who said she normally lives as 55 William Street in an eight-unit complex. “Reading the article titled “Insurance nightmares creating confusion” did nothing to decrease my confusion, frustration, anger, sense of powerlessness and grief, and for that I do not hold the reporter responsible,” she said. Trish is the secretary/resident manager of the strata building at 55 William Street where eight low income families live, half of whom have children including two babies. “Our Strata is insured with CHU, a subsidiary of and underwritten by QBE and we had no flood cover,” Trish said. “We are in a basin-like catchment that has not flooded since records have been kept and which is protected from water coming from the kilometre or so distant Rous River by a levee behind the Brothers’ Club. “Because water overtopped the levee at some unknown time during the night when the catchment was already full from the heavy rain and the huge amount of run-off down the adjacent steep hills, a hydrologist’s report that CHU commissioned attributed our flooding to flood (from a normally contained body of water) rather than storm (rain and run-off). “This is like saying the last straw (the water overtopping the levee) was totally responsible for breaking the camel’s back (the catchment was already brimful). “They therefore rejected our claim completely, this being two months after the flood.” In contrast, Trish said her unit had her own contents insurance, but again no flood cover with NRMA. “They promptly accepted my claim without any delaying tactics like requiring a hydrologist’s report, and have acted efficiently, compassionately and courteously at all times,” she said. “Two claims on the same property – one accepted, one rejected. The Insurance Council gave us answers to our questions that were as evasive as those received by The Weekly’s reporter, including saying that differences between companies were attributable to “strategic reasons”.” Trish said she found what she believes were “multiple flaws” in the hydrologist’s report, including a huge number of

Future bright for Pottsville Beach Public School Hospital Coffee Shop needs a helping hand

MAJOR WORKS to redevelop the Pottsville Beach Public School into a 21st century learning environment could get underway later this year, after a development application was submitted to Tweed Shire Council this week. The school’s Principal Mark Downward told The Weekly that the vision for the school’s future was one that involves open-space learning environments and shared spaces, that allow for a range of learning abilities. The school site at 85 Tweed Coast Road has been using demountable blocks for several years and many residents believe the redevelopment is long overdue. “The original building was opened in the 20th century and is far outdated,” Mr Downward said. “We want to bring the school into the 21st century with leading edge workspaces and abandoning the conventional classroom.” Mr Downward said many other schools that had redeveloped with open learning spaces were seeing the benefits in improving learning outcomes for students. “Everyone learns differently and the open learning spaces allow for students to develop their strengths and learning abilities,” he said. The development application seeks to remove the current

13 demountable blocks at the site which has a total area of 38,438 square metres (3.84 hectares) and currently caters for about 690 children and associated staff. The total cost of the development is around $11.3 million with a start date of November or December 2017. If approved, the proposed alterations and additions to Pottsville Beach Public School would be extensive and involve the removal 13 demountable buildings at the southeastern and south-western sections of the site, demolition of the existing shade structures, minor demolition associated with the refurbishment of the existing administration block and minor demolition associated with the refurbishment of the existing library. “Where possible, materials will be salvaged for recycling and reuse during the demolition process,” the planning report reads. The proposed development also includes several alterations and additions to the Pottsville Beach Public School, including internal refurbishments to several existing buildings including the library and administration block. The new main building, which is pictured below as a concept image, is proposed for the front of site split into three sections – north, middle and south. Each section will include a range of spaces, classrooms, shared spaces and staff rooms.

Solar Power Becoming a Necessity

Proud Hospital Coffee Shop volunteers Marilyn White and Jan Jorritsma

VOLUNTEERS ARE needed to help boost one of Murwillumbah’s favourite little coffee shops located at the Murwillumbah Hospital, which continues a strong tradition of raising funds for medical equipment. Tucked away to the rear of the hospital, the Hospital Coffee Shop has been supplying delicious food and drinks to staff, patients, visitors and the community in its current location since 2008. Nestled in a rainforest garden with a large covered timber deck which was constructed by the Murwillumbah Rotary Central Club, for customers to enjoy. The Coffee Shop operates Monday to Friday from 9am to 3pm and is run by a group of volunteers whose aim is to raise as much money as possible to donate to the hospital and improve patient care. Since 2008, the Coffee Shop has donated $350,000 to the hospital in the form of equipment and other resources. The staff at the hospital write a wish list of what is needed to improve patient care and the Coffee Shop volunteers determine which items they can fund. Current volunteers Marilyn (two years) and Jan (nine years) said they love the friendly environment and the coffee shop is a great thing to do after retirement or for younger people wanting to upskill. Being fully run by volunteers, the Coffee Shop needs additional help. Anyone who is interested in volunteering please call Gaye Pullyn on 0438 865 545. No hospitality experience is necessary.

Electricity prices are about to increase by about 20% at the end of June, 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 $3800 off the system price as a discount. This is a substantial saving which decreases in value every year, so right now is the best time to purchase a solar system. 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 premium 5kw system with Tier 1 panels and a European inverter for only $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.

Anchorage Island Boardwalk saved

A varied array of techniques and a passion for further understanding of the body Dr Z ac Lewis (Osteopath)

DR ZAC Lewis (Osteopath) graduated from Southern Cross University in 2013 and has worked in a variety of multidisciplinary clinics on the coast. Dr Lewis has implemented a varied array of both neuromuscular and musculoskeletal techniques throughout his practice and has a passion for further understanding of ambulatory function of the body. In the past, sporting injuries specific to surfing and AFL have taken a primary role in his practice of osteopathy, including the use of corrective exercise, taping, dry needling and joint mobilisation. The neurological system is of recent interest to Dr Lewis, with further research into the relationship between the control center (brain) and the mechanical function of the body leading him to pursue a slight change in career trajectory.

Although generally effective, some questions arose during his practice of ongoing conditions. Why do the same problems continue to arise after seemingly being corrected? Why do patients come back a week later looking the same as they did the week before? This was not always the case, but these cases were frequent enough to pique his interest into researching further techniques. NIP (NeuroImpulse Protocol), which is practiced at Positive Chiropractic, takes into account not only structures that may be causing pain, but also how the brain interacts and receives that pain signal. Using a pragmatic, reliable set of testing, this approach ensures the root cause of ongoing pain is identified and corrected effectively and efficiently without having to use the heavy handed approach of joint manipulation.

SAVE OUR Boardwalk advocates are celebrating this week following the NSW Government’s funding announcement to replace the ageing timber boardwalk on the northern side of Anchorage Island at Tweed Heads. Member for Tweed Geoff Provest announced funding of $685,000 from the NSW Government’s Walking and Cycling Program (Cycling Infrastructure Fund) at the site on Saturday, June 24. The 200-metre boardwalk - which was built in the early 1990s - has been closed for more than two years due to safety concerns as several sections had deteriorated beyond repair. Mr Provest was joined by Mayor Katie Milne for the onsite announcement, along with Deputy Mayor Chris Cherry, Councillors Warren Polglase and Pryce Allsop and a number of Anchorage residents and community members. “Council welcomes this fantastic news, which means we’ll be able to restore this wonderful environmental asset. The community has really shown how much

they appreciate this magnificent waterway,” Mayor Milne said. “Thank you to Mr Provest and Council staff, and well done to the community for their concerted campaign to save this boardwalk for the whole Shire. When communities face losing precious environments they really realise how much they value them.” Richard Murray from the Save Our Boardwalk group also welcomed the news. “It’s going to allow the education of this community who can come to a place where they can enjoy a mangrove and natural environmental experience,” Mr Murray said. “For many people who walk from the entrance of the Tweed River, it is part of a circuit roundabout planned by Tweed Shire Council and the late Bruce Chick and conservationist Harry Butler.” A tender for design and construction will go out in the next few months, with Council seeking best practice solutions for the longest life for the new structure, as well as environmental benefits. Construction of the new boardwalk should start by the end of the year.

Changes to Kings Forest koala plan sought Cops nab bridge jumper A MODIFICATION to the Kings Forest Project Approval was submitted to the Department of Planning earlier this month which includes changes to Koala habitat offsets, Koala fencing and fauna underpasses as well as removing traffic calming devices, and is currently on public exhibition for community input. The Kings Forest development by Project 28 Pty Ltd (Leda) was approved in 2010 and will see the construction of 4,500 homes, schools, a golf course and town centre. The changes are based around a revised Koala Plan of Management (KPOM) that was prepared by JWA Ecological Consultants in March this year, whilst the original KPOM was completed in 2012 as part of the original project approval. Tweed Shire Council has its own Tweed Coast Comprehensive KPOM whilst the Koala Beach, Black Rocks and Kings Forest developments have their own sitespecific KPOMs. The modification includes removing the requirement to plant koala food trees on a 27-hectare parcel of land within the Cudgen Nature Reserve, which was part of the initial project approval. All compensatory Koala food tree planting will instead occur within the Kings Forest site only. About 14.92 hectares of Koala habitat will be lost during the development of the site and the developer plans to offset these losses by planting trees over 56.71 hectares of land throughout the Kings Forest development. This will be a decrease from an original offset habitat of 71.12 hectares of land (planted with 10,294 Koala food trees and 10,294 non Koala food trees) to 56.71 ha of land (to be planted with 21,864 Koala food trees only). One of these areas where Koala food trees will be planted is the Koala corridor that passes east-west through the centre of the site and will be a minimum 50-metre wide portion. The developer had previously requested to change the timing of Koala food tree planting from one month of the revised KPOM being approved to the start of bulk earthworks in each relevant stage. This modification was opposed by both Council and the community. The new application states “the amended KPOM approval shall include details of the Koala food tree planting schedule with numbers and staging and be prepared in consultation with council and submitted to the Secretary for approval within six months of the date of determination of the application”. Once the Kings Forest development has commenced the

developer is responsible for managing future Council and Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH) land. However, the developer has applied to use the definition of ‘commencement’ as per the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act which excludes “preliminary works such as habitat creation, offset areas, monitoring programs, surveys, etc. to be undertaken without triggering the obligation to commence management of all potential Council land and future OEH land,” the application reads. The new koala plan also includes changes to the location of koala fencing and fauna underpasses and when the construction of these are to commence. The revised plan proposes an “exclusion method” to prevent koalas coming into contact with humans and other threats which includes removing the requirement to provide traffic calming devices to manage potential koala movements across the site. “The KPOM that accompanied the Concept Plan application (Carrick 2009) noted the difficulty of effectively preventing koalas from entering the development zone,” the revised KPOM reads. “However, the approach to Koala management at Kings Forest has been re-appraised based on a review of recent literature (in particular, Hopkins and Phillips 2009). “This Revised KPoM adopts an ‘exclusion’ approach, proposing effective separation of Koalas and their habitat from development and its related threats, whilst maintaining and enhancing existing habitat linkages. The proposed changes include “fencing to be erected so as to prevent Koalas from entering residential areas and roadways. These fences will also prevent dogs from entering Koala habitat. Such fencing within Environmental Protection Areas is to be constructed prior to the commencement of construction in each relevant precinct,” the application reads. “Fauna underpasses installed at intervals sufficient to allow unimpeded movement by wildlife including Koalas under roads. Underpasses within Environmental Protection Areas are to be constructed during road construction. “Precinct 1 and 5 fauna exclusion fencing must be integrated with fencing at Tweed Coast Road. Such fencing is to be completed prior to the commencement of construction in each relevant precinct.” To have your say visit the major projects website http://www. majorprojects.planning.nsw.gov.au/index.pl?action=view_ job&job_id=8334

after random police stop

TWEED POLICE nabbed a man that led them on a wild chase around Bray Park on Tuesday, June 27, after a random police intercept on Kyogle Road near the Byangum Bridge at about 11.40am. A Duty Officer at Tweed Heads Police Station told The Weekly that the man had jumped off the Byangum Bridge to evade police after officers spotted his Toyota Camry with no number plates. The man was believed to have sustained injuries after he was caught by a police dog unit and attempted to fight the dog, which resulted in his injuries. He is undergoing treatment at Murwillumbah Hospital this week. It was unknown why the man jumped off the bridge and the Duty Officer said that the incident was triggered by a random stop of the Toyota Camry at about 11.40am and the man was not being tracked or investigated prior to being pulled over. It is believed the car came to a stop on the bridge when the man jumped over the side and police were in pursuit. A police helicopter (PolAir) scoured the area around Hundred Hills to assist the police. It was unknown why the man had jumped off the bridge to evade police and charges were expected to be laid this week. Police inquires continue.

Pop-up medical units could ease hospital pressure

operational within 72 hours of arrival. “Our Mobile Medical Facilities are pre-built, tested and proven at our site, and then shipped to anywhere in the world,” the site reads. “Each unit is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities that rival, and in many cases, surpass existing First World operating facilities. “Each unit is fully-equipped with pre-op and post-op areas. Units are essentially self-sufficient and will only require mains electrical supply from a visiting site or generator. “We can also provide mobile MRIs, patient services and a dental clinic.” Meanwhile, Acting Chief Executive of Northern NSW Local Health District Lynne Weir said the health board will continue to consult with clinicians at The Tweed Hospital “concerning the introduction of additional facilities at the current hospital site”. “Now that funding has been confirmed the NNSW LHD will begin implementing strategies to meet service demand at the current Tweed Hospital whilst the new hospital is planned and built,” she said. “These strategies will include temporary buildings, although the range of services to be addressed is yet to be determined. “Theatre operating lists are managed across The Tweed Hospital and Murwillumbah District Hospital as one service, with surgeons and anesthetists working across both sites. “With demand for elective surgery continually increasing, the NNSWLHD has identified the need for expansions in theatre services in the Tweed region as a key priority.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe a short-term solution such as pop-up surgical units could help ease the issues with space at The Tweed Hospital?

AN IDEA to alleviate the mounting patient and staff pressure at The Tweed Hospital by installing deployable surgical units, or pop-up theatres in the carpark, has drawn criticism from the Labor Shadow Health Minister this week despite support from hospital clinicians. The idea involves using a company, such as Aspen Medical, who are experts in deploying either soft-skinned (tented) or hard-skinned (modular) medical facilities to areas including those described as “under resourced environments”. Member for Tweed Geoff Provest endorsed the idea which would use The Tweed Hospital’s carpark as the site for the deployable units. However, Mr Provest drew criticism from Shadow Minister for Health Walt Secord who compared the idea to 1980s-90s hit television series M*A*S*H. “Mr Provest was probably inspired to make the statements after he saw an episode of the American television series, M*A*S*H, about the mobile medical units used during the Korean War,” Mr Secord said. Mr Provest was quick to shrug off Mr Secord’s comments and said the views of the clinicians speak for themselves. “We are in a situation where the hospital’s surgery theatres are running at around 90 per cent capacity,” Mr Provest said. “The clinicians support the idea of the pop-up medical units as much as I do in order to address the provision of services.” Mr Provest said the medical units were state-of-the-art and, in many cases, were better equipped than the current hospital theatres. “I don’t care what Walt has to say about the pop-up units, it’s something the clinicians are 100 per cent behind and see the benefit of providing additional services.” Aspen Medical’s Mobile Surgical Unit (pictured above as an example) can deliver a mobile hospital which according to the company’s website can be assembled on-site and be

AN ALARMING new report has revealed the Richmond electorate has some of the highest rates of stroke in the country with the number expected to rise due to an ageing population. The ‘No Postcode Untouched: Stroke in Australia 2017’ report was released last week by the Stroke Foundation and paints a grim picture for those living in rural and regional Australia, who are 19 per cent more likely to suffer a stroke than those living in cities. The Richmond electorate was found to have the eighth highest number of stroke survivors per 100,000 in the country and the ninth highest number of strokes per 100,000. It is predicted that by 2050 the Richmond electorate will have more than double the number of stroke survivors (9,200) and jump to the fifth position nationwide. Throughout 2017 there have already been 505 strokes, (276 male and 229 female) and an incidence of 308 strokes per 100,000. Compared to the national and state average the Richmond electorate has a significantly higher number of people per 100,000 living with stroke (2,520), compared to the NSW average of 1,999 and nationally 1,922. There are currently an estimated 4,136 stroke survivors (2,520 per 100,000) living within the Richmond electorate. Of these the majority are male, 2,352 compared to 1,784 female. It is predicted by 2050 the number of strokes in the Richmond electorate will more than double (1,269) and move up to the sixth highest number per 100,000 in Australia. Strokes are most common in the elderly with more than half of all stroke survivors within the Richmond electorate aged above 70 (2,626) followed by 65-69 (466), 0-55 (431), 60-64 (344) and 55-59 (269).

Cholesterol results shock for Richmond

Within the Richmond electorate 33,633 people suffer from high blood pressure (20 per cent of the population), 4,247 atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat, 2.6 per cent), 45,684 high cholesterol (27.8 per cent) and 77,359 are physically inactive, all known risk factors for stroke. The Richmond electorate has the seventh highest number of people with high blood pressure in the country, the ninth highest with atrial fibrillation and the third highest with high cholesterol. Stroke Foundation NSW State Manager Teresa Howarth said due to limited access to best practice treatment, people in the state’s regional areas were also more likely to die or be left with a significant disability as a result a stroke. “In 2017, New South Wales residents will suffer more than 19,000 strokes and many of these will be experienced by people living outside of Sydney,’’ Ms Howarth said. “Advancements in stroke treatment and care mean stroke is no longer a death sentence for many, however patient outcomes vary widely across the country depending on where people live. “Stroke can be treated. It is a tragedy that only a small percentage of NSW stroke patients are getting access to the latest treatments and ongoing specialist care that we know saves lives.” Stroke Foundation Clinical Council Chair Associate Professor Bruce Campbell said Australian clinicians were leading the way internationally in advancements in acute stroke treatment, such as endovascular clot retrieval. However, the health system was not designed to support and deliver these innovations in treatment and care nationally. “It is not fair that our health system forces patients into this cruel lottery,’’ A/Professor Campbell said. “Consistent lack of stroke-specific funding and poor resourcing is costing us lives and money. For the most part, doctors and nurses are doing what they can in a system that is fragmented, under-resourced and overwhelmed.” Ms Howarth said stroke was a leading cause of death and disability in Australia, having a huge impact on the community and the economy. “Currently, there is one stroke in Australia every nine minutes, by 2050 - without action - this number is set to increase to one stroke every four minutes,’’ she said. “Stroke doesn’t discriminate, it impacts people of all ages and while more people are surviving stroke, its impact on survivors and their families is far reaching. “It doesn’t have to be this way. Federal and State governments have the opportunity to invest in proven measures to change the state of stroke in this country.” In the wake of the report the Stroke Foundation is calling for a national strategy to address the prevention and treatment of stroke, and support for stroke survivors living in the community. Key elements include: • A national action campaign to ensure every Australian household has someone who knows FAST - the signs of stroke and to call 000. Stroke is a time critical medical condition. Time saved in getting people to hospital and treatments = brain saved. Has their FACE drooped? Can they lift both ARMS? Is their SPEECH slurred and do they understand you? Call 000, TIME is critical. • Nationally coordinated telemedicine network – breaking down the barriers to acute stroke treatment. • Ensuring all stroke patients have access to stroke unit

Tweed hospitals performing well under pressure reveals quarterly report MURWILLUMBAH DISTRICT Hospital and The Tweed Hospital are reaching their elective surgery and emergency department targets and performing better than the state average despite increased demand, according to the latest hospital report released by the Bureau of Health Information (BHI) last week. The ‘Hospital Quarterly’ report covers the months from January to March 2017 and reveals that both hospitals are seeing increasing demand in elective surgeries as well as the Murwillumbah Hospital emergency department posting their busiest first quarter on record. State-wide the report reveals that NSW public hospitals have maintained performance on waiting times and increased the volume of services provided during January to March 2017. “Hospitals have been busy and seen more emergency department patients, more admissions and have performed more elective surgeries than in any other January to March quarter,” BHI Acting Chief Executive Doctor Kim Sutherland said.

Elective surgeries Murwillumbah

Murwillumbah Hospital is completing an increased number surgeries compared to the same period last year with 364 surgeries carried out in the quarter, compared to 306 12 months ago. All patients received surgery within the recommended time frames for all surgical categories in the January to March quarter. The majority of surgeries performed in Murwillumbah are non-urgent (within 365 days), with less than nine per cent urgent (within 30 days) and 30 per cent semi-urgent (within 90 days). At the beginning of the quarter there were 915 patients on the elective surgery waiting list, a 23 per cent increase from a year ago. By the end of the quarter this number had

reduced to 845, but still increased from last year by nine per cent. Those on the waiting list but not ready for surgery also increased by 24 per cent from 143 to 177. Patients waited less time for Ear Nose and Throat (ENT), Orthopaedic and Urology compared to one year ago. Orthopaedic patients waited a median of 71 days compared to 93 days one year ago, and more than half the time of peer group hospitals (150 days). Surgery wait times increased for General Surgery from 65 to 81 (peer group 48) whilst eye surgery, especially cataract surgery increased from 326 days to 349 days (peer group 290).

Elective surgeries Tweed

The Tweed Hospital completed an increased number of elective surgeries in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the previous year with 804 surgeries completed (778 in 2016). The Tweed sees a higher number of urgent surgeries (within 30 days) comprising 24 per cent of all surgeries performed. Semi-urgent surgeries (within 90 days) made up 36 per cent of all surgeries and increased by 13 per cent from the previous year and was the highest number of semiurgent surgeries performed since data was collected by BHI. Over the January to March quarter 100 per cent of patients were receiving surgery within the recommended time frames for all categories except non-urgent (within 365 days), which was 99.6 per cent. This is a significant improvement from the previous year where 98 per cent of semi-urgent and 87 per cent of non-urgent surgeries were meeting the recommended time frames. Hip replacements are being performed after a median wait of 86 days, whilst knee replacements are taking more than twice as long at 210 days, up from 170 days last year.

There are six per cent less people on the waiting list compared to a year ago (931) and 17 per cent less on the waiting list but not ready for surgery (338). The majority of patients on the waiting list are for non-urgent surgeries (within 365 days, 77 per cent).

Emergency figures Murwillumbah

There was a record number of presentations to Murwillumbah’s emergency department (4,121) in the January to March quarter, which increased by 2.6 per cent compared to the same time last year. The emergency department saw a record number of urgent presentations (1,242), whilst 2,216 were semi-urgent and nonurgent reduced from high of 913 in 2014 to 374. Despite increased demand there was an improvement in waiting times for three triage categories (3, 4, and 5) whilst triage 2 increased by only one minute. These waiting time figures are better than the state average for all triage categories. 89 per cent of all cases are leaving the emergency department within the recommended four hour time frame. This figure is significantly higher than the state average where only 73 per cent of patients were able to leave emergency departments within four hours, a decrease of 1.1 percentage points.

Emergency figures Tweed

The Tweed Hospital had a reduction in emergency presentations (12,906), down from a record high of 12,994 in the same period last year. As with Murwillumbah hospital, The Tweed Hospital is performing better than the state average for all triage categories. There was an increase in waiting times for certain triage categories (3, 4 and 5), however the figures are still well below the state average. The number of patients discharged from

the emergency department within the recommended four hour time frame has decreased from 84 per cent to 80 per cent, however it’s still higher that the state average of 73 per cent. Despite overall figures reducing the emergency department saw a record number of first quarter semi-urgent cases, such as a sprained ankle, with 4,428. On the other hand non-urgent, such as small cuts or abrasions, reduced by 10 per cent.

Ambulance report

During the quarter There was reduced demand for ambulance services with the number of incidents decreasing by 2 per cent, responses by 1.6 per cent and transports by 4 per cent.

Aveo report paints grim picture of retirement villages MURWILLUMBAH’S AVEO Mountain View Retirement Village has been thrown into the spotlight this week, following a joint Four Corners and Fairfax investigation that paints a grim picture of the company and raises some damning allegations for other Aveo sites across Australia. The company has since released a full statement on its Aveo website, which includes the full 30-question interview with ABC’s Four Corners and Fairfax Media. Murwillumbah was one of several Aveo sites that were highlighted in the report and included an interview with one resident, Monica Johnson. The Weekly has included several of the questions and their answers from the Aveo website below and the full Four Corners reports remains available for viewing via ABC iView or the Sydney Morning Herald. Mrs Johnson told reporters that her doctor had flagged that damp and black mould in and around her unit in Aveo’s Mountain View village in Murwillumbah is “worsening her health”. Mrs Johnson said the mould had spread through her property for years, first in the guttering then in the eaves around the building, she told Four Corners. After a series of medical tests, her doctor said she had longstanding chronic lung disease and her respiratory symptoms had worsened since she moved into the village. Another example included a Mountain View resident who has been trying to sell a freehold unit for six years and Aveo offered the resident below the purchase price. “There are a variety of reasons that units may not sell for a period of time,” the company’s statement reads. “These include the condition of the unit, the resident’s price expectations, location of the unit in the community and market conditions. “The performance of the unit price growth and sales rates at the Mountain View community has been disappointing for both residents and Aveo. “As the owner of a freehold unit at Mountain View, this particular resident has full control over the unit list pricing, the appointment of an agent and the presentation of the unit. “As standard practice Aveo will consult with a resident describing the sale process as well as the current market conditions (inside the village and in the local area).

“A recommendation on price will be made along with any works required to achieve the price. “Pricing considers competitive stock on market, position of the unit, any encumbrances to selling such as stairs, lack of car parks etc. “Required works are considered in relation to market expectations with the level of finish. “If a buyback offer is made it is an open discussion where the expected price that will be achieved is established, the cost of works is disclosed and is deducted from the price to arrive at the “offer” price. “The reason a person may accept a buyback is that there is price certainty – a guaranteed sale price and holding costs are no longer an issue. “Without the specific detail on the unit to which you refer, if a product has not sold for six years it suggests that the resident has been unwilling to meet the market. “The unit may be overpriced, not of a standard that meets current market expectations or there is another issue such as no carpark available or the resident still resides in the unit.”

Read the full report including questions and answers

Q: At the same village, another resident is sick from black mold. It took four years before Aveo attempted to address the black mould around her unit. Why so long? The mould is back, we have letters from her doctor that the lung disease is caused by the environment in the village and recommends she leave. She has asked Aveo for help. It took nine months to get a valuation from Aveo for her unit. She was recently given a letter which says after exit fees etc she will be left with $52,000. How can you value the property at $159,000, deduct the exit fee, then deduct reinstatement and renovation costs? Isn’t the true valuation of the property $99,000? Why not deduct the exit fee from that figure? “Aveo has not been privy to conversations with the resident’s medical advisors,” the company statement said. “However, we have been advised that the resident in question had a pre-existing lung condition prior to moving into the village in 2005 which has worsened over recent years. “In 2012, the resident raised the issue regarding “mould” with the Executive Committee of the Owners Corporation (not Aveo), who is responsible for village maintenance. “The “mould” in question was on a tree and carport roof near her unit. “To find a resolution to this issue, a report was commissioned

from an arborist who determined that the substance was not mould. “Nevertheless, work was undertaken to clean the area and remove the substance from the carport roof. The carport roof was also repainted. “Aveo was unaware that the black substance had returned and will investigate the matter further. “In accordance with the resident agreement, the DMF charged to the resident is based upon the entry price of the unit rather than the exit price. “This was the figure on which the exit fee assessment was made. This assessment is not a formal offer to buy a property, and is always the starting point for any further discussion. “Regrettably, this case is complicated by this particular resident contract, which by our standards today is confusing and a good example of why we have introduced the simpler and more straight forward Aveo Way contract for new residents. “The existing contract has a differing apportionment of capital losses and capital gains between the operator and the resident, which impacts the appropriate sharing of refurbishment costs. “It should be noted that if this unit had been contracted under an Aveo Way contract, as most new incoming residents are now at Mountain View, the resident would have received their unit exit entitlement within six months and Aveo would have been responsible for any unit capital loss.” Q: This resident can’t leave because she can’t afford to buy elsewhere. The manager told her to live in a caravan. Any comment? “Aveo is unaware of such a conversation. If it did occur, comments like this are unacceptable. This allegation is now being investigated,” the company statement said. Q: We have letters written by Aveo when a resident leaves. These letters say settlement is “highly confidential” and “if you disclose the confidential information for any purpose, we may suffer loss and may have legal rights against you”. Why would the disclosure of this information cause you to suffer loss and require a legal threat? “This working is a part of a standard legal confidentiality agreement which is included in many commercial transactions entered into with residents,” the company statement said.

TAXATION SPECIALISTS Tips to ease the tax time worries jobs, foreign income, bank interest and any Government payments you received. Many of the other common mistakes we see are easy to avoid by using a local tax agent. Over claiming can cost you Although the ATO want to make sure no-one misses out on their deductions, they will also be on the lookout for those trying to claim more than they are entitled to. The ATO is also focusing on “unusually high work-related expense claims” across all industries and occupations. Enhancements in technology and the use of data means the ATO are able to take a much broader approach than previous years; and identify and investigate claims that differ from what is normal across all industries and occupations. Three easy rules you can follow to make sure you’re not over claiming on work-related expenses: you must have spent the money yourself, it must be related to your job and you must have a record to prove it. Get sorted by October 31 If you’re planning to complete your own return, make sure to lodge before the October 31 deadline to avoid penalties. Age-old advice: use a tax agent Most registered tax agents have special lodgement schedules and can lodge returns for their clients after October 31. For anyone thinking about using a tax agent for the first time or a different one to last year, it is important to contact them before the end of October to qualify for their lodgement dates and avoid penalties. It’s also important to ensure you are using a registered tax agent. Only a registered tax agent can charge a fee for doing your tax return. The Weekly has sterling list of registered tax agents listed throughout this feature, who are only a phone call away.

The Weekly, in conjunction with the Australia Tax Office (ATO), has this week compiled a top tips for tax time. While most will go through without a hitch, sometimes there are delays due to minor errors. In fact, the ATO recently reported that it had to contact more than 350,000 taxpayers to correct mistakes. One way to avoid the tax headaches is to use one of the local tax agents advertised through The Weekly feature who can get your tax right the first time.

Ph: 6672 1844

At Grant & Brady, we like to be pro-active and keep our clients updated with the latest tax news. The following is a summary of the most important upcoming changes: • The Tax Office now has a free app available for your phone. The app is able to help you record work or business related travel and keep track of deductions. There’s even a Business Performance Check tool that allows small business operators to compare their financial position to others in the same industry. • From 1 July 2016, the small business tax offset will increase from 5% of tax on business income to 8% (up to a maximum tax offset of $1,000) for businesses with an aggregated annual turnover of less than $5 million (up from $2 million). • The small company tax rate has been cut from 28.5% to 27.5% from 1 July 2016. Small companies are those with an aggregated turnover of $10 million or less. • The threshold at which the 37% marginal tax rate applies for individuals has increased from $80,000 to $87,000 for the 2017 and 2018 tax year. • Capital gains tax rollover relief is now available for some small businesses who change their legal structure • Great news for first home buyers in NSW-you will no longer have to pay stamp duty on new or existing homes worth up to $650,000. Stamp duty discounts will also apply to properties worth up to $800,000.The foreign investor surcharge on stamp duty will also be doubled from 4 per cent to 8 per cent, while land tax will be raised from 0.75 per cent to 2 per cent. The government is also scrapping the $5,000 new home grant scheme for investors. • The tax exemption for Super Fund income from assets supporting a Transition to Retirement Income Stream will be removed. Earnings on these assets will now be taxed at 15% in the fund. • A $1.6M transfer balance cap will apply from 1 July 2017 to the total amount of accumulated superannuation an individual can transfer into the tax-free retirement phase (i.e. this is the maximum amount of assets that can be allocated to a tax-free pension). The earnings

on any assets in excess of this cap will be taxed at 15%. • The annual cap on concessional superannuation contributions will be reduced to $25,000 from 1 July 2017. Up to 30 June 2017, the cap was $30,000 for individuals under 50 years of age and $35,000 for those over 50. The annual non-concessional contributions cap also reduces— from $180,000 to $100,000 on 1 July 2017, and those with a superannuation balance of more than $1.6 million will no longer be able to make non-concessional contributions. • From 1 July 2017, regardless of your employment arrangement, you may be able to claim deductions for personal superannuation contributions. The current 10% income test rule to determine an individual’s eligibility to deduct personal superannuation contributions will be removed. Individuals aged less than 65 can claim a tax deduction for their personal superannuation contributions up to the $25,000 superannuation contribution cap. Those aged between 65 and 74 who want to claim a deduction, must meet a work test. For example: Diane earns $80,000 per annum and her taxable income, after other income and deductions is $77,400. Her employer is obliged to pay $7,600 in superannuation guarantee payments to her super fund. Diane can therefore make another $17,400 in superannuation contributions, taking her up to the $25,000 concessional contributions cap. Diane can claim her $17,400 superannuation contribution, which would reduce her taxable income to $60,000 and her individual tax payable by $6,003 (including the Medicare Levy). • These are just some of the changes that have been implemented and the impact they may have on you or your business will depend on your personal circumstances. As such, the above should not be relied on as advice. At Grant & Brady, we always welcome new clients and are more than happy to discuss how these and other changes affect you. We are one of the longest serving accounting firms in the Tweed Valley and have a great team of qualified professionals with decades of experience in business and taxation advice.

Avoid Eczema this winter

Local News 21

Thursday June 29 - 2017

Yoga with Kay

Eczema (atopic dermatitis) is a recurring, non-infectious, inflammatory skin condition affecting one in three Australasians at some stage in their lives. Skin becomes red, dry, itchy and scaly. In severe cases, the skin may weep, bleed and crust over, causing the sufferer great discomfort. Sometimes the skin may become infected. The condition can also flare and subside for no apparent reason. The condition is most common in people with a family history of allergies, including asthma or hay fever. Although eczema affects all ages, it usually appears in early childhood (in babies between two-to-six months of age) and disappears when the sufferer is about six years of age. Most children grow out of the condition, but a small percentage may experience severe eczema into adulthood. The condition can not only affect the individual sufferer, but also their family and friends. Adult onset eczema is often difficult to treat and may be caused by other factors such as medications. CAUSES- Internal factors can include a family history of eczema, asthma or hay fever (the strongest predictor); particular food and alcohol (dairy and wheat products, citrus fruits, eggs, nuts, seafood, chemical food additives, preservatives and colourings); and stress. External irritants - tobacco smoke, chemicals, weather (hot and humid or cold and dry conditions) and air conditioning or overheating; and allergens - house dust mites, moulds, grasses, plant pollens, foods, pets and clothing, soaps, shampoos and washing powders, cosmetics and toiletries. SYMPTOMS- Symptoms include moderate-to-severely itching skin (this symptom separates eczema from other skin rashes), recurring rash - dry, red, patchy or cracked skin. In infants and toddlers, the rash usually appears on the face, elbows or knees. In older children and adults, the rash appears less often on the face, and more commonly on the hands, neck, inner elbows, backs of the knees and ankles. There may be rough, “leathery,” thick skin or lesions which may be infected by bacteria or viruses. PREVENTION• Use a soap-alternative and daily moisturiser to minimise dry skin. • Wear cotton or soft fabrics - avoiding rough, scratchy fibres and tight clothing. • Wear rubber gloves with cotton liners. • Have lukewarm baths and showers using a non-soap cleanser or hypoallergenic bath oil. • Gently pat (don’t rub) skin dry with a soft towel. • Apply a moisturiser within three minutes after bathing to “lock in” the moisture. • Remove carpets and rugs from houses (if possible) and keep pets outside. • Ventilate the house as often as possible. • Avoid stuffed toys which harbor dust mites. • Change bed linen regularly, using specialised dust mite prevention covers • Minimise daily stress If you have any questions regarding eczema, ask your local pharmacist or health care professional.

Market buddies open central retail outlet

Woodworker Ken Hardy and Bali importer Fay Wright

AN EXCITING new business has recently opened at 32 Wollumbin Street in Murwillumbah offering locals and visitors some creative and inspiring new ways to decorate and furnish their homes. Woodworker Ken Hardy and Bali importer Fay Wright, teamed up about three months ago after separately working the Pottsville Markets for more than two decades. Known as Wood ‘n’ Things and Bali Illusion, the pair have developed the space into a shopper’s delight with a range of handmade timber furniture, bread boards, tables, mirrors and much more. The store also offers a range of unique Bali imports that are handpicked by Fay, who’s a regular visitor to Bali and has some amazing items that she ships back in a container. Ken has spent the past 25 years refining his wood working skills after working as a plumber. “I still remember the first time I switched to woodworking,” he said. “I’d just moved to Nimbin at the time and noticed a guy putting an enormous camphor laurel tree trunk to burn on

his property. “I approached the guy and asked him if I could have the piece to create some furniture.” With a bit of negotiations, Ken secured the large piece of timber which later ignited a passion for woodworking. “After that I went on to operate two wood mills and have gathered up enough wood to last a lifetime,” he said. “So, I’ve been making custom wooden items ever since and it’s something I’ve grown to love.” Fay, who’s also the Kingscliff Rotary Club president, has been visiting Bali for decades and has seen a popular shift towards Bali-style decorations. “I like to get items from the mountains of Bali,” she said. “I try to source unique items for customers, but we’re also open to suggestions and can help with lot of ideas to decorate or furnish your home.” The pair are also planning to open a small café in the coming weeks. To find out more about Wood ‘n’ Things and Bali Illusion visit the store at 32 Wollumbin Street or phone 0412 990 752.

Condong Primary returns in November CONDONG PUBLIC School is set to return to its permanent premises at Condong after the Tweed flood inundated the school and resulted in the students being shifted to a temporary location at the former Murwillumbah South Infants School. Condong Public School Principal Brendan Quinn said the staff and students of Condong Public School have had an “extremely busy, yet highly productive term two” in the temporary grounds of Murwillumbah South Infants School. “The students have continued to enthusiastically participate in a wide variety of innovative teaching and learning experiences, including STEM (Science, Technology, English and Maths) units of work,” he said. Mr Quinn said a key aspect of the student’s participation this year was in the Young Innovators Market Day, whereby students developed a business plan, garnered sponsorship, created products to advertise and sell at the market day which was held at Burringbar Public School. “This incredible venture was the culmination of a unit of work across eight small schools from the S8 Community of Schools Group,” he said. “Condong Public School will continue to operate out of Murwillumbah South Infants School while building repairs continue to take place at Condong, although we will be back bigger and better at Condong by the end of November at McLeod Street.” To find out more about Condong Public School or to enrol your children phone: (02) 6672 2390.

Hockney Words & Pictures opens at Tweed Regional Gallery TWEED REGIONAL Gallery staff are excited to unveil the first international touring exhibition to the iconic gallery, David Hockney: Words & Pictures, which will launch on Friday, June 30, featuring works by one of the most influential living artists. David Hockey has been described as "arguably Britain's greatest living painter" and in 2011 was voted by his peers as the most influential British artist of all time. Drawn from the British Council's collection and direct from London, the inspiring exhibition will present four major suites of the artist's prints, produced between 1961 and 1977. United by their reference to historical works of literature and art, the prints were produced during the first two decades of Hockney's career when he established himself as a pioneer of the British Pop art movement. Collectively they offer insight to Hockney's beginnings and evolution as an artist. The international collection will be supplemented by outstanding original Hockney etchings, lithographs and photocollages, including colourful portraits of the artist's mother and a self-portrait, kindly loaned to the Gallery by the artist's Australian-based brother, John Hockney. David Hockney: Words & Pictures will only appear at two venues in Australia, the Tweed Regional Gallery and Blue Mountains Cultural Centre, which are partnering for the touring exhibition. "David Hockney: Words & Pictures is a double coup for the Gallery and the Tweed. Not only is it our first international touring exhibition, it's an amazing collection of works by an icon of British art for many years," Gallery Director Susi Muddiman said. This unprecedented display at the Tweed Regional Gallery will be a ticketed exhibition, with admission prices kept affordable so the exhibition can be accessible for community members. Individual and family tickets may be purchased at the Gallery on the day of visiting. An official opening for the exhibition will be held on Friday,

June 30 from 6pm-8pm. Another exhibition, The Tweed Valley Weather Report by Andrew Hmelnitsky will also be launched as part of the opening. Tickets for the opening night are $30 and selling fast. Advance bookings are essential to secure a place by phoning (02) 6670 2790. David Hockney: Words & Pictures will also be accompanied by a special program of events on Saturday, August 19, starting with a free talk by John Hockney at 2pm. The Gallery will them remain open 'Up Late' that evening, from 5pm-8pm, with Gallery Director Susi Muddiman and John Hockney 'in conversation' with Blue Mountains Cultural Centre Director Paul Brinkman at 6.30pm. The panel discussion will reflect on David Hockney's career,

his exploration of digital technologies and concurrent exhibitions of Hockney's work in London and Melbourne. The Gallery Cafe will be open for the evening. Drop in for wine and tapas from 5.30pm-6.30pm or stay for supper from 7.30pm-9pm (bookings for supper essential - phone (02) 6672 5088). Ticket prices: $10 - adult $7 - Gallery Friend or Foundation member $8 - concession or child aged 5-17 years $26 - family (2 adults + up to 3 children) Free - children under 5 years $8 per person - bus group booking $6 per person - school/education group booking

A QUIET PASSION

The life of the famous American poet Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) has been made into a film directed by Terence Davies. Despite chronicling the poet’s life from the beginning as a young schoolgirl to her later years as a recluse and unrecognized artist, the film has been defined more as a ‘masterpiece of mood’ rather than a straight biographical feature. The film stars Emma Bell as the young Dickinson and Cynthia Nixon - of Sex and the City’s fame - in her adult life, infusing the character with a feeling of great loneliness.

“There’s two aspects to the clubs, firstly it’s a mixed gender club and we take all ages,” he said. “We are a self-sufficient club that has built a reputation for engaging all people interested in woodcrafting endeavours.” The Woodcraft Show will present items such as a grandfather clocks to breadboards, wood carvings, wooden bowls, unique pen and scribe crafts, wooden platters and a wide range of wooden kitchen entries. The Woodcraft Show is free entry and items with prices are extremely competitive. The club is always open to new members and information will be available at the Showgrounds across the weekend.

It was only after her death that the full extent of her literary work became known. Perhaps more than literary fame Emily Dickinson wanted love – in a scene with her unhappy sister-in-law who tells her ‘you have your poetry’ she replies ‘you have a life’. The paradoxical title of a ‘quiet’ passion hints to that unfulfilled quest.

AN AMAZING presentation of the region’s master woodcrafters will be presented at the Murwillumbah Showgrounds this weekend, for the Woodcraft Show and Competition Day on Saturday and Sunday, July 1-2. Gates open from 8am to 4pm each day with about 200 individual handmade items, ranging from aesthetic woodcarved items to household and kitchen goods. This year marks the inaugural combined club event which includes the Tweed Valley and Richmond Woodcrafting Clubs. Tweed Valley Woodcrafters Association secretary Archie Crawford said the club was funded by its members and welcomes both men and women.

Despite growing up in a sheltered environment and attending a puritanical Christian school, at the beginning the young free-thinking Dickinson was given enough latitude by her relatively liberal family to write and publish some poems. But in later years the loss of friends and family members who died or moved away and disappeared from her life, plus the lack of a love life made her succumb to illness and disillusionment, and she became bitter and increasingly recluse, dressing in anti-mourning white color but refusing to meet anyone and never leaving her house.

30 NRL Tipping Competition Thursday June 29 - 2017

Footy Toughness can’t be coached at the with Quinny

THE ORIGIN is alive and well. Qld showed some real desperation to get back in the contest and they were a much better team with JT at the helm and Billy being everywhere. For any young halves watching the game it was a good lesson in the ‘game management’ side of things of how to close a game out and how to grind a win out. The NSW halves missed their opportunity and the Qld 6 and 7 were smart enough to get them home. The big talking point was JT. He took toughness to a new level. Playing with a bung shoulder that now needs surgery for long minutes and still made a huge difference, challenged the line, directed his team and kicked the winning goal.

He was never ever going to miss. If I had to pick someone to kick for my life it would definitely be JT. You can pretty much put the red line through the Cowboys without the next immortal suiting up. The weekend games after the Origin were great. It’s a real mental battle to get yourself up again for a game on a short turn around. Some players and clubs do it extremely well. Others struggle. Toughness (both physical and mental) is not something you can coach. You either have it or you don’t. There is not too many in the NRL who aren’t mentally and physically strong. Most who aren’t, do not reach the top or are weeded out by an exhausting preseason schedule. Often the pre-season

Footy Tipping Gurus POINTS LADDER

is harder than the competition. The poor old Knights can’t seem to take a trick, 28-10 up and get run down. Once again I mention toughness – mental for these guys, it’s like they are not sure how to win. By round 18 and the Sea Eagles are probably the surprise packet and surging during this Origin period. I feel the top five teams are lengths better than the rest. The premiers are in here somewhere. Interesting article from former Dragons star Clint Greenshields in the Daily Examiner about duty of care and support for players on the field from dangerous play and contact and requesting more to be done by officials. I would have to say I agree with him. See you at the Footy. Quinny

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Memorial to farewell Charlie Larter Volunteer call at Tweed Palliative Support resulted in three men including Charlie’s son Zack, receiving stab wounds to the chest. Police later arrested Alderton with the alleged stabbings and the court proceedings are continuing. A memorial document was handed out during the service with the words: “Charlie Larter a man with a big heart, a great sense of humour, and a love for his family that had no end”. The memorial also included a poem ‘Wipe The Tears Away’ which read: “Your heart of gold stopped beating Two smiling eyes at rest God broke our hearts to prove That he only takes the best The tears in our eyes will wipe away But the love in our hearts Will stay forever”

Charlie Larter’s family and friends gathered in memorial of Charlie

Fresh new faces of the Tweed Palliative Services volunteer group

A TWEED PALLIATIVE Support luncheon took place last week to celebrate the latest volunteers who completed a nine-week volunteer palliative carer program, as a fresh call for more volunteers has been made for people to help the Tweed’s most caring end-of-life service. The luncheon took place at the Country Women’s Association hall on Queen Street and the volunteers are now ready and eager to work in the community and at Wedgetail hospice. Long-time current volunteer Autumne Camidge said Tweed Palliative Support (TPS) was hoping a fresh call for new volunteers to apply would continue to widen the pool of locals available. “Wedgetail needs two volunteers every day to help nursing staff while the home hospice service also needs carers every day for respite and transporting clients,” she said. Volunteers play a vital role in keeping Wedgetail’s doors open and new volunteer carers often take on other vital roles in palliative support such as office administration and fundraising.

“New volunteers can become ambassadors for palliative care and TPS by raising awareness in our community and feeling more inclined and comfortable to have conversations about death and the process of dying,” she said. The cost of operating Tweed Palliative Support is not funded by the government and instead funds are raised via the Wedgetail second-hand shop in Murwillumbah and donations. Outcomes for trainees include being part of a warm team of committed people with a shared vision of personal self development and awareness raising, sense of achievement and self-worth, experience of bonding with a group of people from all walks of life and experiences forming new friendships. “It’s also about being given the opportunity to “give back” to the community in a rewarding way,” Autumne said. Tweed Palliative Support provides a professional training program of the highest quality from its own fundraising efforts.

Think local and buy local to help the Tweed thrive WHEN YOU support a local tradesperson and supplier you’re not only keeping money in the Tweed Shire, you’re also supporting local families and in turn your community will thrive. Remember, local trades provide lasting employment, understand the local conditions and are just around the corner when you need them. Our local tradies are also highly qualified with established credentials, licensing and can also help

recommend other trades people to help with all your house or business work. Another reason to think local and buy local is for making stronger ties to your community. If you had a good experience with a local tradesperson, you might recommend them to a friend, who in turn recommends them to another friend and the local cycle begins. So, the next time you pick up the phone to call in a tradie, think local it will help strengthen your community and you may even make a new friend for life.

Bowls Noteswith Judy Tuckey WITH INCLEMENT weather now somewhat settled, recent sunny days have certainly made life on the greens more enjoyable. District Men’s Singles Championships, with several very new players joining the fray, are well under way with preliminary rounds now completed. Mullumbimby’s Ben Leeson, still a rookie, was quite impressive in the Reserve Grade eliminating experienced campaigners to take his place in next week’s semi-finals while Cabarita’s Warren Cass, another rookie, was unlucky to be taken out in the quarter finals in a very close scoring game. The Open Singles also included newies Cabarita’s Darrin Black together with Pottsville’s Peter McGuiness and Tony Lattanzi. Following on from tough close scoring encounters in the preliminaries, all three lads made it to the quarter

finals. Whilst Black and McGuiness were eliminated by narrow margins, Lattanzi was successful in claiming a berth in the semis in this grade. A great effort from all our young guns. State Mixed Pairs District Qualifiers are scheduled to commence at Brunswick Heads Saturday, July 1. 28 high quality teams entered in this tournament indicates a great day of bowling from all contestants. And for the ladies, next on the Agenda is the District Versatile Fours to be conducted at Condong Bowls Club 10 July. Pairs are on the card for a.m. games with Fours to commence after lunch. Attractive prize money is on offer. Entries close 3 July. Gentlemen – Please Note: District Champion of Club Champion Championship Pairs has been deferred to now commence Sunday 16 July. See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

Pimm put on an excellent display of rail surfing over the duration of the final to post two excellent scores, 9.43 and an 8.33 to give him an impressive 17.76 heat total. He was not the only successful local surfer, with Cabarita’s Ben Johnson a 3rd in the Over 40s, and Kingcliff surfer Alan Croke picking up 4th in the over 40 years Logger Division The Australian Surfmasters Titles will be held later this year in the Tweed region, with the Cabarita to Casuarina area favoured.

The 2017 Billabong Occy’s Grom Comp will kick off this Saturday, July 1, and run for six days.

This year’s competition will see over 180 of the best junior surfers from around the globe converge on the southern end of the Gold Coast to compete across six divisions from 12 & Under Girl’s through to the Blue Ribbon 16 & Under Boys. Preparations are well underway for this weekend, with the

stage set to kick off early on Saturday morning for what will be a huge week of surfing. Occy’s son Jay will be a surfer to watch in the Under 14 boys, he won the under 12s in the old man’s contest in 2015, and I reckon Dad would be pretty stoked if he won another title. Piper Harrison’s little brother, Marlon will be a big threat in that division after taking out the under 14’s in the BK Memorial a few weeks ago. Big sister and current Queensland Open Women’s Champion and Coolangatta local Piper Harrison will be vying for a 16 & Under Girls Title and will go into the event with confidence after some big results in the first half of this year. Harrison will join fellow Queenslander and 2016 Queensland Open Women’s Champion, Cabarita surfer Zahli Kelly, as strong division favourites. Kelly is known as one of the best junior surfers in Australia and will be looking to stake her claim next week amongst a very competitive field of the best female up and comers in the world. If you a looking for a wave on the weekend though, I would avoid Duranbah, as the grommets will have the spot taken over.

HOCKEY with Richard Phillip

THE GOLD Coast teams did not play any first grade games over the weekend due to the men’s and women’s Under 18 State Titles as well as several players away representing. This left Tweed playing a round of their own on Saturday. On Friday night Kingscliff and Waratah Bobcats had a catch up game which they played on Friday before representative players flew out Saturday.

Men’s results

Waratahs win by rorfeit over Capri Kingscliff vs Murwillumbah game deferred Burleigh vs Mudgeeraba Griffith Roosters vs Labrador Casuarina had the bye The catch up game between Kingscliff and Waratahs on Friday night saw the Waratahs

win 5-1 with forever young player for the Bobcats Tim Willis scoring a hat trick along with Luke Caterall and Kieron Walker putting the game out of Kingscliff’s reach.

Women’s results

In the Women’s games with Tweed playing a round of their own Murwillumbah got off to a slow start letting Mullumbimby score first but with goals to Karen Iwanuscha, Natasha Wyborn, Shari East and Carly Manning saw a much better second half as they came away winners 4/2. The other women’s match between Kingscliff and Waratah Falcons saw Waratahs put the game to rest in the first half with four unanswered goals, two to Emily Hetherington and two to Chloe Sadler. This was the final score as Kingscliff kept the second half scoreless.

SOLO RESOURCE RECOVERY UNDER 14s: Coach Steve The awesome 14s machine rolled into Ballina Town for a showdown with the Bombers, on Sunday afternoon. Boasting a near full strength squad, the mighty Vulcans unleashed from the first bounce, to blitz the bombers, with their irresistible, high energy and clever play. The brave Bombers tried everything to hold back the onslaught, but with NSW zone champs, Jed and Connor back in the middle linking up with fearsome skill and pace with Tommy, Luke J, Ryan, Noah, Hazza and Jay, there was no hope. Our backline was sensational, not allowing anything through. The leadership from Cooper and Ethan was just great, Jesse was on fire reloading our wingers. Cameron, Shaun and the other rotations were just sensational. Well done Boys... you did Murwillumbah proud with that outstanding effort! IGA UNDER 12s: Coach Dom The mighty IGA under 12’s gallantly fought the mighty Bombers at Ballina on the weekend. Narrowly going down after a big tussle. The first game for weeks on end due to the rain. The backs of Kai, Dozer and Corey feverishly defended our sticks only to be bettered by a bigger and faster team from down south. Max and Connor ran strongly all day through the edges of the ruck with Maxie taking the crown for most tackles during the game. Cooper took out the Service Club “Man of the Match” award with a sterling effort from the centres. Our forwards played plenty of ball through the half forward line where

TWEED FOOTY LADDERS

dominated them in their first round encounter. The Casuarina forwards rallied early and showed plenty of go forward which enabled half back Webb Lillis to cross over in the 7th minute to have Lismore reeling 7 - 0. The Casuarina forwards grew in confidence and provided the platform for the backs to spread the ball wide and make numerous inroads into the Lismore defence. This combined with some very astute kicking allowed the Casuarina team to totally dominate field position in the first half. Casuarina capitalised on this dominance to rattle up three more first half tries to Vitori Buatava, Adam Parlby and Chris Luxton. This resulted in the Casuarina team going into half time with a commanding 28 - 3 lead. The Casuarina team, in particular the forwards, put on their best performance of the season to run out very deserving winners 35 - 15. The result reflects the tenacity and growing confidence of the team. Best for Casuarina was the hard-working lock, Jack Pick closely followed by number 8 Chris Luxton and Hooker Dan Heritage. Next week the Casuarina team travel to Ballina. Casuarina will then play Bangalow at home on July 8, kick off at 3.15pm. Come along and support your local rugby team.

FIRST GRADE

Far North Coast Rugby Union First Grade

Ladies Day success and Barbarians get a win

THE CASUARINA Rugby Club hosted a special ladies event on Friday, June 24, prior to game day on Saturday for Far North Coast Girls 7s competition and once again the Casuarina girls were stand out performers. On the night, the Under 13s had a comprehensive 41 to 0 win over Bangalow which puts them at the top of the table. Additionally our Under 15s team rattled up a 55 to 0 win over Evans Head which firms up their top four position. On Saturday, off the field, a fundraiser was held to support the Wedgetail Retreat – Northern Rivers Community Pallative Care Hospice. In conjunction with the fundraiser the club had its inaugural “ladies day” which was extremely well supported. Consequently, a big crowd was on hand to watch a great afternoon of Rugby. The day started with the Casuarina Under 12s team marching onto their sixth consecutive win and clearly displaying the skills and talents that is making them a dominant team in their age group. As a curtain raiser to the main game the Under 6s and Under 7s played a demonstration match and they put on a great display for the big crowd which saw plenty of tries and lots of enthusiastic and proud players ( and parents!) There was great anticipation as the Casuarina first grade took the field to take on Lismore. The Casuarina team were well focused and prepared for a bruising encounter. In the the early exchanges Casuarina came out with all guns firing and were prepared to take on the large Lismore pack, who had completely

Theo and Fin took some punishing tackles and got straight back up again. Corey was struck early in the game with a knee to the thigh but continued to run through. Josh maintained the pressure out front despite being hammered by some lumps of kids from Bomber town. Next week out to Round mountain for a tight home town rivalry. UNDER 10’s: Coach Steve The mini Under 10 Vulcans took the early trip down to Ballina with last week end to play Byron Bay. The Bay come with their game faces already screwed on with some of our boys and girls taking a little while to wake up. The first quarter ran a little one way for us going the wrong way. Man of the match goes to Sean for taking a massive out front mark and then slotting the ball through for a 6 point major. Goal of the game. Well Done Sean. It was good to see Billi back after a bout of the dreaded winter Flu. Billi, Jed and Andrew made it difficult for the opposition but sadly missed Kayden with his tackling for the backs. Young Taylor better look over his shoulder because his younger brother The Super sub Sonny took to the bigger and faster game with delight. Well done boys. See you all next week at round mountain. This weekend games at round mountain: 8.30am - U10's - TWDY V MWB U10's - TWDB v BBM U11's Girls - TWD V BB 9.45am - U15's Girls - TWD V MWB U 8's - TWD V MWB 11.15am - U12's - TWD v MWB 12.45pm - U14's MWB v BB 2.15pm - U16's
