TWEED SHIRE locals have rejoiced the return of their beloved local pubs and clubs on Monday, June 1, including Pottsville locals Ayden Rickman, Jake Whyte, Brendan Lavis, Jake Smith, Harvey Groth and Owen Paxton (pictured above). The locals met at the Pottsville Tavern after a hard morning’s work on the tools for a catch up, meal and a beer – or two. The group agreed it was great to have their local back up and running as they had run out of odd jobs around the house and renovations to complete.

Councillors to vote on Skyline Attractions application By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Councillors are set to vote on an application for a temporary observation wheel during their meeting on Thursday, June 4, at Tweed Heads, which would tower 35 metres high and can hold up to 144 people in gondolas. Skyline Attractions has applied to Council to establish the observation wheel with 24 gondolas at Goorimahbah – Place of Stories on the northern side of Jack Evans Boat Harbour. The application outlines the wheel’s proposed hours of operations as between 10am to 9pm which features lighting until 8pm weeknights. The request is for the observation wheel to be onsite from July 31 this year to November 11, 2020 or 14 weeks. “This includes eight days for bump in and out, leaving the wheel operational for 96 days,” the application states. However, at the Council meeting on April 16, 2020, Council granted a temporary licence to the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies (AIATSIS) to utilise the area from Monday, October 12 till Tuesday October 27, 2020 (two weeks) as part of the National Native Title Conference.

By Jo Kennett AN ELDERLY woman was rescued from her Kingscliff unit by Tweed Police after a fire broke out in the kitchen on Friday, May 29. Tweed Police were in the area around 3pm as the fire started and managed to evacuate the woman and others in the building. Fire and Rescue Kingscliff said a member of the public also helped to make sure everyone was out of the building and the power had been turned off at the switchboard. Police officers put out a highest priority red alert for the building, which houses several adjoining apartments. That alert sent emergency services including NSW Ambulance,Tweed 468 Hazmat, and brigades from Fire and Rescue NSW Kingscliff, Banora Point and Tweed Heads racing to the scene. “On route crews noticed a large amount of smoke issuing,” a Fire and Rescue NSW Kingscliff spokesperson said. “Crews donned BA (Breathing Apparatus) while the OIC (officer in charge) ensured power was turned off. “Crews entered the house with a line of 38mm hose and made their way upstairs where they were met with a fire in the kitchen that had also spread to the roof.” As the crews started fighting the fire the ceiling began to collapse.

*Redeemable for 1 month from publication date
Councillor response to letter
Just to tidy up Peter Bennett’s confusion about the Wardrop Community Village as printed in The Weekly edition, May 28. Council will provide land for the village adjacent to the industrial estate at Wardrop Valley. Council will fund the design of the village along with the business and management plan. These steps are necessary to support the application for grant funding and a low interest loan. The business plan must show that there will be no ongoing cost to ratepayers. The village will not be “a high density site …. on an open windswept plain” as Peter Bennett claims. It is designed as a lowdensity development with the bulk of the land available for agricultural and revegetation activities. The site is close to town, protected from southerly winds and is in a classical Tweed setting with views of Wollumbin and the Border Ranges. The second stage of the development will provide facilities for cultural and small business p u r s u i t s a n d w il l i ncl ude a community bus. The village will be open to anyone who needs affordable accommodation and who is willing to be part of a supportive, productive and sustainable community. For some, it will allow the resetting of their lives following personal, financial or family disruption. I r e j e c t P e t e r B e n n e t t ’s characterisation of community members who need affordable accommodation as “socially disadvantaged, transport needy and underprivileged people”. They are, in fact, workers, retirees, parents and volunteers – all trying to make a life for themselves and their family in the Tweed. They do contribute to society. They will contribute even more when freed from the shame of poverty and relieved of the anxiety of imminent homelessness. Being able to call Tweed home will become a reality.

The cost of doing nothing will be so much more, the diversion of police and health services, the disruption to schooling and the intergenerational impacts of poverty. Cr Ron Cooper, Kingscliff
Is closure constitutional?
The Queensland border lockdown is about to be brought down in alltime classic style (political/legal nuclear explosion) with the High Court now on the case re Clive Palmer’s challenge. Having appeared before the High Court as one of the last litigants in person allowed to do so 20 odd years ago, I can state from experience that with the paperwork in and the matter having had a preliminary hearing before the Chief Justice, nothing will stop the High Court judges hearing a once in a blue moon juicy Section 92 Constitution case like this. Because they will go into the legal history books for presiding over and deciding that WA and Queensland have abused our Constitution and their jurisdictions and it could get even worse than this for both Premiers. There is no sufficient medical evidence to justify boader closure leading to potential law suits against both States. And it won’t matter if one or both of the ALP premiers now try and dive for political cover by bring down their border barriers, the High Court will still hear and determine the matter. The fact that two ALP state premiers could paint themselves into such a dumb political corner (which they could have so easily avoided even a week ago) speaks volumes and underlines the real problem throughout the ALP. Simply stated, they are unfit for governance. After the May 2019, Shorten stuff up, it is very likely if not almost certain, that Scomo will be in power for 10 years because the competition seems to have learnt nothing from the greatest political loss ever. The same crowd including Bill are still mulling about being paid for doing almost nothing “stuck in the mud” with the Rudd legacy ensuring even if they saw the light they cannot change leaders until after the next inevitable election loss. The proof of course will be in the pudding when it’s very likely every ALP state government will fall like dominos at their respective next elections and the Albanese opposition will be further reduced by at least another 10 seats at the next federal parliament election which Scomo is likely to call way before July 2022. I’m am afraid Labor as it currently exists is just pathetic. Terry Sharples, Tweed Heads
Smell the burning rubber
When is extra funding for a major project another name for a cost blowout in NSW planning circles? I thought that the original announcement for the new Tweed Valley Hospital was for a state-ofthe-art facility and Lend Lease’s September 2019 ‘Preliminary Construction Plan’ for the main works attests to that comprehensive commitment. Soon after pre-Christmas talk of budget pressures and the need for a ‘total rethink of the build’ (read cuts) comes this $91.2 million extra funding announcement that puts things quite ‘likely’ back on track. With more than $50 million of the total budget being spent on the old hospital in Tweed, just to keep its head above water, and the inclusion of a proposed multi-level carpark still subject to demand and extra, extra funding, nothing is yet set in stone and that includes the muchvaunted free parking. Let’s just take Geoff Provest’s word on that because there’s bugger all parking up hill or down dale from the site. But more news has since been passed on about funding, and not through the Liberal Party or the NSW Health feel good channels. Doctors, nurses and a host of ancillary staff will literally be able to take ownership of the new hospital. The proposed public service wage freeze will help to pay for the construction, and if that slap in the face for all the hard work is not accepted, then the Berejiklian government has their good old job security threat as a backup. And never one to let a good coronavirus crisis go to waste, the Coalition now comes armed with a fast-tracking rubber stamp so that even a cursory nod to consultation and local planning documents can be sacrificed in the name of economic recovery. Oh; and asset sales. Mark Baxter, Kingscliff
We need another supermarket
Further to your article on May 28 in the Tweed Valley Weekly, I believe Murwillumbah is in dire need of another supermarket. Not only will it create competition for Coles but it will enable shoppers to get all their shopping done in town. According to one of your reader’s letters, he does not know of anyone going out of town to shop. Well he either does not know many people or he lives under a rock. Murwillumbah would thrive if we could get an Aldi and a Kmart. Currently shoppers have to go to Tweed or to The Pines to get all their shopping done in one place. Keeping shoppers in town would help the small independent shops
as well as maybe entice new shops to open in some of the copious amounts of empty premises in town. Therefore adding to the town’s economy by providing numerous job opportunities. Dee McGrath, Murwillumbah
Target will be missed
Let’s put aside the issue of the pros and cons of whether Woolworths should muscle into Murwillumbah. What we need more is another store like Target in Murwillumbah. For people who are less young like myself, the closure of Target means we will have to travel to Tweed Heads just to get a pair of slippers! Target stocked bed linen, towels, shoes, pyjamas, clothing for the family (admittedly all made in China like most things) and many other items. Being situated close to Coles it was very convenient to call in. When I came to the area over 50 years ago everything I needed to buy was available in shops in Main Street and Wollumbin Street. Coles Variety store was amongst them and when Sunnyside was built and Coles moved into the complex they stocked the necessities of everyday life too but now “variety” is gone and it is basically a food store. Maybe Coles should think about the good old days and stock things that Target provide. Companies should be thinking of their consumers, their demographics and make life easier not more complicated and stressful. Murwillumbah always looks busy – what are these people buying? Has anyone done a survey with less young people and those who do not wish run up to Tweed Heads for everyday products? Helena Duckworth, Tweed Valley
Woolworths good for area
My wife, family and many neighbours support the proposal to rezone the old bowling club land to commercial so that Woolworths may build a new centre on that dilapidated site. That area is in urgent need of rejuvenation and a new commercial development appears to be the only way to achieve this unless the Council is able to pour millions of dollars into providing more community facilities – we can’t see that happening as it probably is not justified. Further, another super market would deliver much needed competition in the area providing a wider and different product range with more significant cost savings. We sincerely ask Woolworths to proceed with this much-needed asset and ask the Council to support such a proposal for the good of the area and community at large.

Deliveries to Tyalgum Creek
We live in Tyalgum Creek. We have a great Licensed Post Office that enables parcels to be sent anywhere in the world at normal postal shipping rates. Unfortunately, when it comes to door-to-door services we are deemed a ‘remote location’. We pay a higher rate for our parcels to be delivered. Or, as is sometimes the case, not delivered. Three times in the last twelve months the delivery company which appears to have the contract for our area refuses to deliver our parcels. Their explanation? “We haven’t been paid enough to deliver it to you”. This is despite us getting a door-todoor shipping quote and paying the full amount, including the remote area surcharge. Instead, we receive a text message saying: “we have a parcel @ #### Deliveries Depot at #### Road Murwillumbah for you to collect” (a one hour round drive for us) with a number to call for further details. When I contacted the number recently to find out the parcel’s origin, they refused to release any other information, just as they refused to deliver the parcel. I wanted to know the details of the parcel to inform them their subcontractor refuses to deliver. In this age of COVID-19, many people are turning to online purchasing services to ensure they can work from home. And what of disadvantaged people who, for whatever reason, can’t travel to the depot. I myself am a war veteran with a full-time carer. With this current parcel, as with the last one, the delivery service in question, grudgingly, after rude argument, said the best they can do is deliver the parcel to a point on the main street of Tyalgum township. Other local delivery companies deliver to our door with no problems. It’s only one delivery company that appears to be trying to take advantage of people in remote locations by accepting the contract and money to deliver a parcel and then forcing people to come and ‘deliver’ the parcel themselves. Has anyone else in the region had their parcels held to ransom by this delivery company (whose name I can’t use) or others? I’ve had enough, and am referring the matter to the Office of Fair Trading.

First NSW Hendra virus case confirmed for 2020 By Jonathon Howard A HENDRA virus case was confirmed by the Department of Primary Industries (DPI) in a 17-year-old unvaccinated thoroughbred horse on a property south of Murwillumbah this week. The owner, at an undisclosed location, told the DPI they had noticed the horse was depressed and having difficulty breathing on Friday, May 29. A private veterinarian took samples for Hendra virus exclusion, but the horse deteriorated and was euthanised over the weekend. NSW Chief Veterinarian Officer Dr Sarah Britton said Hendra virus was confirmed late on Monday, June 1. “This is the first case of Hendra virus infection in NSW this year,” Dr Britton said.
“A District Veterinarian from the North Coast Local Land Services is undertaking risk assessments on the property in regards to other animals; at this stage no other animals are showing any signs of ill health and we will continue to monitor their health status. “Hendra virus infection is notifiable in NSW under the NSW Biosecurity Act and the movement of animals and people on and off the property will be restricted for at least 21 days.” The NSW DPI has been working with Local Land Services to encourage private veterinarians and horse owners to be aware and undertake sound biosecurity. In NSW, there have been 23 confirmed horse deaths as a result of Hendra virus since 2006, with most cases occurring on the north coast. The DPI is urging horse owners to remain vigilant as the signs of Hendra
virus infection are very non-specific early on. “The vaccination of horses is the most effective way to help manage Hendra virus disease,” Dr Britton said. “Owners should also keep their horses away from flowering and fruiting trees that are attractive to bats. “Do not place feed and water under trees and cover feed and water containers with a shelter so they cannot be contaminated from above.” If your horse in unwell, keep people and animals away from the horse and call your private veterinarian immediately. If your vet is unavailable, you can call a District Veterinarian with the Local Land Services or the Animal Biosecurity Emergency Hotline on 1800 675 888. For more information about Hendra, visit the DPI website.
By Jonathon Howard THE WORLD Environment Day Festival has been rescheduled until June 2021 due to coronavirus, but festival organiser Ari Ehrlich is encouraging residents to find ways to celebrate on Friday, June 5. Mr Ehrlich is passionate about making positive change to the global environment andhe’s encouraging residents to visit calderaenvironmentcentre.org and click on the World Environment Day 2020 Online link. This year’s United Nations World Environment Day theme is “It’s Time For Nature” and Mr Ehrlich has made some suggestions for locals to follow. “Our annual event (postponed till June 7, 2021), is a coming together of the community to learn, discuss and
debate the challenges we face in living in an ecologically sustainable manner,” he said. “How to live harmoniously with the changing environment, in a manner designed to be encouraging, inspiring positive and productive ways. “It’s a call to action to each of us with an array of links to videos, websites, talks and articles, focused on what we need to do to best protect the environment, of which we are all a unique part, visit: www.calderaenvironmentcentre.org” Mr Ehrlich wanted to thank Tyalgum Energy Project solar trailer, ENOVA Energy and the SAE Solar Group solar van from Tweed Heads, who would have taken part in the festival again this year. He’s also calling on locals to shop at Caldera Environment Centre to “help
save the planet by buying our beautiful, ethical and affordable products”. “There is a huge range of ethical and organic products, I’d encourage everyone to have a look and shop local,” he said. “We are looking forward to a big World Environment Day Festival in 2021 and hope the community will once again get behind the festival.”

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Court rules casual workers have leave rights
By Jo Kennett PILES OF rubbish and open fires from late night parties have once again left Tweed Coast residents fuming, with good Samaritans cleaning up the mess left behind. Some locals say that since COVID-19 restrictions have eased the problem has become worse than ever, and they are worried that the broken bottles, still smouldering fires and rubbish, much of it glass, could cause serious injuries to people or wildlife. One local wildlife carer who was out looking for an injured seagull, came across several men having a party around a fire beside the estuary at Pottsville with empty beer bottles everywhere. “I got so fired up with them they actually started to pick up all the beer bottles,” the woman said. “I picked up plastic bags that would have ended up inside a marine turtle or tied around the beak of some bird. “Why are people trashing Tweed Shire Council’s public parks in estuary areas? “Why can’t they take responsibility for their actions as visitors to an area other than their own backyard. “I went to the fire station and to police and they all said to report it to Tweed Shire Council.
“I just want people to respect the beach, and respect public areas and the environment. Just plain respect.” Another local, Alan Pearce, who was taking his dog for a walk beside the creek on the beachside at Pottsville and came across a still smouldering fire and empty bottles. “It makes you absolutely disgusted with some people,” he said. “There were beer bottles on the table and chucked around, and there was a smashed beer bottle under the smouldering log. “The bins get overloaded and then people just chuck it on the ground. “Then there was some P plate hoon doing burnouts in a souped up, very noisy Commodore up the track to the end.
By Jo Kennett THERE’S NOTHING like a campfire under the stars on a cold night but Tweed firefighters are asking locals to think twice before they light up this winter. Fire and Rescue NSW Banora Point released a warning saying that with the cooler temperatures, “it’s becoming more common for persons to light fires on beaches for warmth and cooking”. “Before doing so, it’s important to check council regulations to ensure you’re not conducting a prohibited activity,” the warning said. “If you light a fire make sure to keep a bucket of water close by as a precaution. “Don’t use any flammables (petrol) in the fire. “Only use a clean fuel, like untreated dry timber. “Keep pets and children a safe distance from the fire, always supervising.”
Local children have suffered third degree burns after walking on fires that hadn’t been extinguished properly, causing months of excruciating agony for them and the parents who felt powerless as they watched them suffer due to someone’s negligence. Banora Point firefighters want the public to know how dangerous this can be.
Rubbish left behind at near the Pottsville estuary
“I’ve heard him before, he turns in and puts his foot down and just roars all the way up the road. “It’s just bloody stupid.” There were also the remnants of a fire left on the beach near the Pottsville bridge car park. Banksia branches had been torn out of the dunes to fuel the fire. In one particularly bad case, rubbish was left strewn from the picnic area near the amenities block at Hastings Point right up to the headland. There were also reports of piles of bottles, cans and other rubbish left on Norries Headland at Cabarita after late night weekend parties, in some cases by local teens.
Campfire safety first, says firefighters

“Most importantly - once finished with your fire, ensure you extinguish it fully with water and do not bury it,” they said. “Campfires buried under sand can smoulder for hours or even days. “These hot coals are very dangerous to a barefoot passerby, as seen in the images attached. “We appreciate the fact they may be confronting, however we hope this is a strong enough example to get the message across.”

A recent landmark Federal Court ruling on when some casual workers are entitled to the same rights as permanent staff is likely to have a major impact on both employers and employees. In a 273 page ruling, the Full Bench of the Federal Court found workers classified as casual who have “a firm advance commitment from their employer” to get regular ongoing shifts should be eligible for leave entitlements just like permanent employees. “It means more than a million regular, ongoing casuals could receive annual leave, sick leave, paid personal or carer’s leave, and paid compassionate leave,” said Emily Wittig, who practices employment law at Stacks Law Firm. The May 20 WorkPac v Rossato decision upholds a similar 2018 decision by the Federal Court in WorkPac v Skene, which ruled that casual mine workers in regular and continuous employment could claim for unpaid leave entitlements. “WorkPac v Rossato centred on coal mine worker Robert Rossato, who had been consistently employed for three and a half years by the labour hire company WorkPac at different mining projects while classified as casual in his contract,” Ms Wittig said. “WorkPac argued that Mr Rossato was paid the 25 per cent casual loading above the minimum rate of pay in lieu of any entitlements for paid annual and personal leave. “The court disagreed, and ruled he was entitled to the same paid leave as permanent workers, as he had an ongoing commitment for employment, and therefore was not a casual.” Ms Wittig explained that under the Fair Work Act, and as determined by the court in WorkPac v Skene, a casual employee is an employee who has no firm advance commitment by the employer to continue in the job. “Casual work is associated with irregular work patterns, uncertainty, discontinuity, intermittency of work and unpredictability. “An increasing trend among employers is to use labour hire companies to supply workers, rather than hire workers themselves, thereby avoiding such leave entitlements and job protection,” Ms Wittig said. “Many people working for the labour hire companies find themselves classified as casuals, working for years alongside permanent employees doing the same work and the same hours.” Ms Wittig said the ruling doesn’t automatically apply to all casuals, but it opens the door for casual workers who have regular, continuing, certain and predictable employment to question whether they are entitled to benefits associated with permanent employment, such as holiday pay. “Naturally employers sounded the alarm bells, warning it would cost $8 billion for businesses to pay the 2.6 million casuals the same leave entitlements as full timers.” The government has warned it could weaken the economy and it may have to consider legislative changes.

New-look Knox Park A prominent section of Murwillumbah’s Knox Park has an impressive new look following a $1.5 million makeover. The renovation at the corner of Wollumbin and Brisbane Streets is now complete and open to the public, however an official opening may have to wait a few months until COVID-19 restrictions are further relaxed. The upgrade includes: upgraded pathways to improve accessibility; new lighting to improve safety; new gardens and landscaping; naturally shaded outdoor seating areas; a new bus stop; a new outdoor stage area with power; and a new park entry at Brisbane and Wollumbin Street. The Knox Park upgrade project is funded through the Australian Government Building Better Regions Fund and the Restart NSW Fund and Tweed Shire Council. For more information visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/knoxparkupgrade and check out Council’s Facebook page for more photos of the makeover.
Water bottling change
New water bottling facilities are no longer permitted in rural areas of the Tweed, following the completion of a planning proposal process started by Tweed Shire Council in late 2018. An amendment to remove the clause in the Tweed Local Environmental Plan 2014 that allowed water bottling facilities in the RU2 Rural Landscape Zone came into effect when the amendment was published on the NSW Legislation website on Friday (29 May). The draft Planning Proposal was publicly exhibited from 20 August 2019 to 17 September 2019. 343 submissions were received in response to the exhibition. 338 were in support of the proposal and five were opposed. Existing approved water bottling facilities are allowed to continue their operations on the properties where they are currently approved, as required by the State Government. The LEP amendment was published in Friday’s Government Gazette and is effectively immediately.

The upgrade includes art deco-style entry signage.
Restart NSW funding brings Rail Trail one step closer Construction of the Tweed section of the proposed Northern Rivers Rail Trail is likely to begin in early 2021 after the NSW Government today committed $7.8 million to the project. The Restart NSW funding, together with the $6.5 million already provided by the Commonwealth Government, is now sufficient to complete detailed design and construct the shared-user path along the disused rail corridor from Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek. “Today’s announcement gives certainty both to Council and the adjacent landowners along the rail corridor allowing them to better plan for their future,” Rail Trail Director Iain Lonsdale said. The legislation required to formally close the rail line is not likely to go through Parliament until later this year due to the Government’s
Road nightworks are set to start on Tweed Valley Way at the intersection of Bartletts Road, Eviron, this Sunday (7 June) at 7pm. Contractors will close one lane to dig out the road pavement and replace with new asphalt. The work will take about six nights – from 7pm to 6am – and be done over a period of two weeks. There will be no work on Friday and Saturday nights. Stop / slow flagmen will be in place to direct traffic through the onelane section.
more pressing need to manage the current coronavirus pandemic. “When the legislation is amended, Council will be ready to start work to build this long-awaited recreation and tourism facility,” Mr Lonsdale said. “While we have been waiting on funding certainty, we have been gaining the licences and approvals needed to build the rail trail and are now in a position to consult further with the adjacent landowners and other stakeholders to finalise detailed design and get this project shovel ready for next year.” For more information on the Rail Trail visit www.yoursaytweed.com.au/railtrail
To celebrate World Environment Day on Friday 5 June, Council is excited to launch a new easy online tool to report sightings of Endangered Bush Stone-curlews. Council’s Program Leader - Pest Animals Wildlife Protection, Pamela Gray said the Tweed community were very protective of their Bush Stone-curlews and many residents had been actively involved in their protection for many years. “We have developed this reporting tool to make it easier for the community to pass on their records. “The data collected will help Council to understand how many nest sites are used in the Tweed each year, how many chicks hatch and how many survive to reach adulthood. It also helps us to understand why some of the chicks don’t make it to adulthood. That’s why it is important for the community to let us know about every sighting, even if it is sad news,” said Ms Gray. The Tweed is lucky enough to have one of the few local Bush Stone-curlew populations in NSW that is slowly recovering from near extinction. Report your sightings at www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/bushstonecurlewsighting
Help Tweed Regional Museum collect COVID-19 history for future generations to explore Tweed Regional Museum is collecting stories to record how the local community is living through the COVID-19 pandemic. The Museum is asking local children and their families to share their thoughts, feelings and drawings about daily activities at home, through a handwritten letter. The letter writing project is one of the ways that the Museum is documenting life locally during this historic time. The letters will be compiled in the Museum’s collection for future
generations to read and to learn how daily lives were affected during the pandemic. A selection of letters will be featured on the Museum’s website and social media pages.

There’s been a rise in the number of cats and dogs being adopted and purchased during the COVID-19 pandemic. This includes Friends of the Pound locally who have seen an increase in the number of pets they’ve rehomed. Unfortunately, the downside is a spike in the number of scams offering puppies for adoption.
Planning Committee Meeting Agenda Thursday 4 June 2020 The Planning Committee Meeting Agenda for Thursday 4 June 2020 is available on Council’s website www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/councilmeetings. During this period of COVID-19 distancing restrictions the meeting will be livestreamed, commencing at 3pm. A Public Forum on agenda items being considered is to be held prior to the meeting.
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission reported in April puppy scams were almost five times higher than average. They estimate that these scams have taken more than $300,000 from members of the public who think they are doing the right thing. Director Planning and Regulation Vince Connell said prospective owners are strongly encouraged to use NSW Pet Registry online to undertake a free buyer search and to ask the seller for a microchip number, a breeder identification number or for the name of the rehoming organisation offering the pet for sale. “By using the microchip or a breeder identification number the online search will determine the breed, age, registration and de-sexing details of the cat or dog. By using the rehoming organisation number, the online search will confirm details about the seller,” Mr Connell said.

TWEED POLICE are calling for witnesses of a nasty road rage incident in Pottsville on Thursday, May 28. Police said it was around 11am when a red Nissan Pulsar being driven by an unknown male in a northerly direction on Tom Merchant Drive at Pottsville, has stopped and as part of a road rage incident, reversed into the front of a white Subaru Wagon being driven by a 57-year-old female which had stopped on the roadway. The Nissan left the scene without providing details and the female driver contacted police to make a report. “Later that afternoon the female driver was at Hastings Point headland taking photographs when she saw the same vehicle as earlier do a burnout in the car park. She followed the vehicle to an address in Pottsville and then started taking photos of the vehicle in question,” police said. The occupants of the vehicle included two males and a female who got out of the car. “One male has apparently jumped onto the bonnet of the female’s car and started hitting the roof. The female driver was able to drive away from the location after a period of verbal abuse,” police said But it was not over there. As the female driver was travelling north along Tom Merchant Drive, the Nissan suddenly appeared behind her and then drove in front and blocked her. “The Nissan has then reversed into the front of her vehicle and was about to do a second time before she took evasive action by driving on grass to get away,” police said. If anyone has any information which may assist police, they are advised to contact Tweed Heads Police or Crime Stoppers.
Murwillumbah drink drivers arrested
POLICE ARRESTED two drink drivers in Murwillumbah on Saturday, May 30, including a woman who had two small children in the backseat of her vehicle. The first drink driver, who was driving a gray Mazda, was stopped by police in Proudfoots Lane for a random breath test. The driver, a 24-year-old male, exited the vehicle and immediately told police he would be over the limit. He was arrested and a breath analysis at Murwilllumbah Police Station returned a reading of 0.125. His licence was immediately suspended, and he will appear in Murwillumbah Local Court on July 23. The second drink driver – who was driving a Hyundai Elantra station wagon with Queensland registration plates – was stopped on Alma Street at 10.43pm for a breath test. “Police approached the vehicle and observed a female person occupying the driver’s seat of the vehicle and observed two small children in the rear seat of the vehicle,” police said. “The accused informed police that she had finished her last alcoholic drink only a few minutes before being stopped by police. “The driver was breath tested and returned a positive result. Police observed a moderate
scent of intoxicating liquor coming from the accused and observed her eyes to be bloodshot and her speech slightly slurred.” She was placed under arrest and conveyed with her two children, to Murwillumbah Police Station where a breath analysis returned a reading of 0.082. Her licence was suspended and she will appear in Tweed Heads Court on July 20.

Learner charged with pursuit A LEARNER driver has been charged following a police pursuit that saw them crash their vehicle on Terranora Road. Police said they were called to Banora Green at Darlington Drive, Banora Point, around 11.40pm on Friday, May 29, after reports a vehicle was doing burnouts. Upon arrival, a white Hyundai I30 hatchback with Queensland registration exited the driveway onto Darlington Drive and police signalled for it to stop. The vehicle, however, accelerated north on Darlington Drive and police pursued the vehicle left into Amaroo Drive with the vehicle accelerating to about 80 kilometres per hour. Police followed the vehicle along Fraser Drive, then Terranora Road in an easterly direction. “At this point the young person’s vehicle has pulled away from police and was travelling about 80 kilometres per hour,” police said. The pursuit was terminated and the vehicle was located shortly after on Terranora Road where it had crashed and was extensively damaged but the driver was not in the vehicle. Police made inquiries with the registered owner and were supplied the details of a 17-year-old learner driver. Police attended the young person’s premises and as a result of the collision the driver suffered a broken nose, cuts and abrasions. The driver will be issued a court attendance notice to appear before Tweed Heads Court on a date yet to be set.

TWEED POLICE are reviewing CCTV footage taken from the Food Hub Murwillumbah on Wednesday, May 27, after three people made repeat attempts to break into the vital community service. Police said it was about 11.30pm when three suspects attempted to kick the entrance door but were unsuccessful in gaining entry. Police said the three people in question noticed a CCTV camera capturing them. “One of them has climbed onto a bin and attempted to redirect the camera to point straight down to the ground. In doing so they have damaged a part of the camera,” they said. The trio then walked to a roller door which they have attempted to use a piece of timber to open it but they were unsuccessful. Police said the trio were wearing hooded jumpers and or had their faces covered. Anyone with information can contact the Tweed Heads Police Station or Crime Stoppers.

and salvageable items from the building, documenting them, and advising the relevant groups that stored items in the building when they were available for collection.” Mr McConnell said the club was waiting for this process to be completed before they notified the public of the results. “The clearing out of debris from the burntout sections is nearly complete and when finished, the engineer will return to examine the building to determine its structural integrity,” Mr McConnell said. “When this is completed, we should have an idea of our future regarding whether some sections will need rebuilding or if refurbishment is the way forward. “At this stage we have not been informed of the official findings of fire and police investigations. “No doubt some would have heard many interesting theories from “informed” sources as to the cause but we are yet to be informed. “Once we know the official findings I will certainly inform the membership. “My sincere thanks to all who still continue to offer assistance to Cudgen Leagues Club - it is much appreciated.”

“There have been no cuts in the Tweed Shire to frontline services, this is political rubbish.” Mr Provest also hit back at the NSW Labor Party and said “show me the cuts”. “Show me where we’ve made cuts? We’ve had more police, nurses, public servants than ever before, show me again where the cuts are in Tweed?” he said. “Maybe the Labor Party should come to the Tweed electorate instead of sending these press releases from Sydney.” Unions NSW Secretary, Mark Morey, thanked opposition and cross bench MLCs for their support. “Today the Upper House has helped prevent the NSW government turning a recession turning into a depression. For that we thank them,” he said. “The NSW Government always looks to its own workforce for savings. But today as we confront the worst economic crisis in a generation, economic sanity has prevailed. “Teachers, nurses, hospital cleaners, police, prison officers and other public sector workers earn modest incomes and they spend most of what they earn. Cutting their incomes in a downturn is economic lunacy. “Many of these workers also risked exposure to COVID-19 over the past three months. Despite the deep disrespect shown to them by the State Government, it is heartening to see the Upper House stand up to the Government’s bullying and blackmail. “The Government must make peace with the fact it will run deficits for the foreseeable future. Rather than cutting spending, it should expand public sector jobs.”

By Jo Kennett IT WILL be some time before the future of Cudgen Leagues Club, which was devastated by fire on Monday, May 4, is known, according to the Club President Peter McConnell. Mr McConnell released a statement this week that structural assessments would not be done until all the debris was cleared away. He said that “things are progressing well since the fire”. “Nathan (Kerr) and I were given a look through the club prior to the commencement of the make safe and clean-up process,” Mr McConnell said on Saturday, May 27. “The club was approximately 90 per cent affected, either directly by the fire and intense heat, or severely smoke damaged. “It was confronting to see areas of complete destruction immediately next to areas that appeared relatively untouched. “The RSL room was spared in part, compared to the kitchen which is located next-door that was destroyed completely. “Over the past two weeks, the insurance contractors have been removing memorabilia
By Jonathon Howard PUBLIC SERVANTS had a win on Tuesday, June 2, when the NSW Legislative Council voted to block the NSW Government’s wage freeze plan. Last week, the NSW Premier announced the state’s 400,000 public sector workers would not be getting their 2.5 per cent pay rise because of budgetary pressures during the COVID-19 crisis. The NSW Labor Party was quick to slam the wage freeze, labeling it a cut, including Lismore MP Janelle Saffin who condemned the government for “trying to rip $780 million from the wages of nurses and midwives, cleaners, police, firefighters and public servants from the Northern Rivers and Northern Tablelands to spend on Sydney infrastructure”. According to Ms Saffin, 5,405 workers in Richmond-Tweed would be affected “with $35.6 million in wages ripped out of this region over three years”. Despite the win in the Legislative Council, Ms Saffin said “the fight is not over yet, as the NSW Government can take this matter to the Industrial Relations Commission”. “Rest assured that I will fight for each and every public servant in the Lismore Electorate and beyond,” she said. In lead up to the Legislative Council vote, The Weekly received several media statements from the Labor Party highlighting the Tweed Shire, in response Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said the statements were “political rubbish”. Mr Provest said he wanted to point out the “vast investment” taking place across the Tweed Shire highlighting investment in local infrastructure for police, ambulance, schools and a new hospital. “There has been major investment in the Tweed Shire including upgrades to schools and the investment in the new Tweed Valley Hospital, a lot of investment in the public sector for the Tweed,” he said.

Tweed Daily News to cease print edition
By Jonathon Howard MEMBER FOR Tweed Geoff Provest said the announcement of the end of the print edition of the Tweed Daily News is a “sad moment for the Tweed but also an opportunity to celebrate an organisation that has been fighting for the Tweed for well over a century”. There were many shocked Tweed Shire locals who received news that the Daily News will cease its print edition at the end of June after more than 120 years of rich print history. “Like all local politicians, I’ve copped my share of bad press in the Daily News, but I could never accuse it of not being fair and balanced and, like me, 100 per cent for the Tweed,” Mr Provest said.

well above its weight since it was formed as the Tweed and Brunswick Advocate back in 1888. “It became a daily newspaper in 1914, an extraordinary feat for a small rural business at the time,” Mr Provest said. “It was also only the second daily newspaper in Australia to install an offset printing press back in 1970. “I want to salute all the people who have worked at the paper over the decades, particularly now editor and former sports editor Bob Anthony who had dedicated most of his professional life to serving the Tweed community through the newspaper. “I encourage readers and advertisers to support the digital edition and I also encourage local businesses to follow my lead and advertise in the independent Tweed Valley Weekly.”
The Weekly is here to stay and going strong
By Jonathon Howard THE TWEED Valley Weekly team remains committed to providing the Tweed Shire with the best local newspaper that a thriving community such as ours deserves. While News Corp has chosen to cease its print edition of the Tweed Daily News, after 120 years of history, The Weekly remains committed to a quality weekly print edition every Thursday from now and well into the future. The Weekly owner and editor Jonathon Howard said the feedback and encouragement from residents via social media, phone calls and face-to-face all in support of The Weekly has been overwhelming. “Locals have expressed shock at News Corp’s announcement to lose such a vital print title, but many are also pleased they have The Weekly to continue providing a reliable source of local information that’s also independent,” he said. “The print industry has taken its share of cuts and tough times, but the business model remains strong as long as we deliver quality and substance and our readers and advertisers are behind us.” Mr Howard said it was difficult for community newspapers to make a large profit and it would therefore make sense that a large corporation would want to exit. “Community papers are built on the backs of hardworking locals that are passionate about their community and use that passion to produce a quality newspaper they can be proud of,” he said. “I would like to thank our advertisers, readers and supporters for their encouragement over the past week and want to assure everyone The Weekly is going strong and is here to stay. “I want to encourage readers to seek out

Genie the genius helping kids break down barriers
Defibrillators were recently installed at two Kingscliff locations

assist students who need a little extra help,” Mr Hackett said. “She performs a special role and has many responsibilities from helping students to settle in and develop independence, to providing a calming presence if students feel anxious or stressed, or simply welcoming new families.”
Terranora Public School Executive Communications Officer Clarah Luxford said Genie is a joy for the students and the school. “We are lucky to have her as part of the Terranora Public School family,” she said. “Her presence is always appreciated, and she has a busy social calendar.”
THE KINGSCLIFF Rotary Club is pleased to announce the installation of two public access defibrillators in Kingscliff. The units were purchased from community fundraising and a grant from Rotary District 9640. The defibrillators are for the public to use to help someone suffering a cardiac arrest and have been installed to make Kingscliff safer for residents and visitors alike. If you are one of the more than 30,000 people who will have a sudden cardiac arrest outside of a hospital in Australia this year, your chance of survival is around nine per cent. However, if a defibrillator is used within the first few minutes, the survival rate increases to 80 per cent. The Rotary Club of Kingscliff identified a shortage of public access defibrillators in the Kingscliff area. The club’s president, Dr Sue Vinnicombe, said she was pleased to announce two recent installations have been completed in the Kingscliff area. One defibrillator is located at the Seaside Collective at 62 Cylinders Drive next to Shiny Brew Café. The second is located at 60 Marine Parade at the cinema entrance of the Azura Building next to Subway. Kingscliff Rotary would like to thank the building owners for their support in this project. Dr Vinnicombe said the funds were raised from the 2019 Duck Race and a grant from Rotary District 9640. The defibrillators have been installed in alarmed cabinets and are semi-automatic. The first responder is clearly guided with voice prompts and a large colour screen illustrates the process, inclusive of CPR. These devices are endorsed by Surf Life Saving Australia. We encourage the public to familiarise themselves with the location of the defibrillators. For more information please visit Kingscliff Rotary on Facebook or on the website at www.kingcliffrotary.com.au or contact President Dr Susan Vinnicombe on 0408 065 409.

By Jonathon Howard S T U D E N T S A N D s ta ff fro m Terranora Public School are developing a strong relationship with the Principal’s dog Genie, who is helping ease student anxiety and provide some extra support for those in need. As with the success of Story Dogs and other animal engagement strategies, Genie can calm students and respond to their needs as well as providing endless energy and enthusiasm. Principal James Hackett brings Genie to school every day and said he has been amazed by her ability to engage with students and break down barriers. Genie is a yellow Labrador pointing retriever from Tasmania who was specifically bred to be a hunting dog. “Although seeing how she interacts with our students and adores everyone, this is hard to believe,” Mr Hackett said. “The only thing Genie hunts for are snacks and loving pats.” Genie’s breed is highly intelligent and highly trainable. In fact, Genie comes from outstanding stock and three of her siblings work for the Australian Federal Police as detector dogs. Mr Hackett employed Rhonda from local business Top Dog Academy to train Genie from the age of eight weeks up to the age of three and during that time Genie even learned to skateboard. “Every day Genie comes to school to

Outrage over schoolchildren being denied access to Surfside Bus By Jo Kennett SURFSIDE BUSLINES say action is being taken against a bus driver who refused passage to two schoolchildren last week. The driver refused entry to the two schoolboys at Tweed Mall on Friday, May 26, because of the COVID-19 restrictions on passenger numbers. The bus drove off, leaving the schoolboys behind. Surfside Buslines General Manager Matthew Campbell said the company cared “deeply about the safety and wellbeing of all of our passengers – in particular children who rely on our services”. “Every child has a right to feel safe aboard our services and our drivers are professionally trained to prioritise their safety,” Mr Campbell told The Weekly. “We have zero tolerance to children being refused travel and any allegation of this occurring is taken seriously and investigated in full. “After investigating a report of this occurring last week, we found a clear breach of our company policy and we are taking appropriate action. “We have contacted the parent with this outcome and I would like to thank her for notifying us of the incident.” Another woman, Helen Wharekawa, said her son’s life had been allegedly put at risk late last year by a Surfside bus driver and said “nothing had been done” following the complaints she sent to the company. “It was last November and we had just moved from Kingcliff to Tweed Heads West and we weren’t sure of the bus routes to get to Kingscliff
High School so I took him in the beginning,” Ms Wharekawa said. “Then we decided he could catch the Kingcliff to West Tweed bus; I think it’s the 601 that leaves Kingscliff TAFE. “There weren’t school buses and we live near Ducat Street on Kennedy Drive and that bus comes down Ducat Street.” Ms Wharekawa rang Surfside Buslines to see if her son could catch the town bus and they said “absolutely” if he had his bus pass. “I explained it was the only way he could get home,” she told The Weekly. “He went on the bus the first time and that was okay, but the second day the driver said he was meant to get the school buses that are provided. “My son said, ‘there is no bus that takes me home’ but the driver said, ‘this will be the last time I pick you up’.” Ms Wharekawa said her son was “a bit shaken” by the driver’s attitude. “He pushed the button before the Ducat Street stop where he needed to get off, but the bus kept going until about 300 metres down the road on Kennedy Drive,” she said. “It was the first time my son had caught a bus and he had to navigate the off-ramp and on-ramp to the highway where the roundabouts are. “That’s a nightmare for me to navigate let alone a kid. “I was furious and put in a formal complaint and said it was so irresponsible.” Ms Wharekawa was told Surfside Buslines would investigate the complaint.
Surfside Buslines say they are taking action after two schoolchildren were denied access to a bus recently
“I didn’t hear anything and then he had another incident of telling him he wasn’t allowed to be on the bus two days later,” she said. “The bus driver told him he won’t stop for him again; it was the same driver. “I rang about the bus driver again and the Surfside guy said, ‘oh we heard about that’. “I said he’s 13 years old and he’s been told by Transport NSW that he can catch that bus.” Ms Wharekawa was told it would be added to her original complaint and they would investigate and let her know what was going on. “No one got back to me,” she said. “Now he doesn’t catch the bus anymore, he doesn’t catch the town buses at all.
“He catches a bus that drops him at Dry Dock Road at Tweed South and he has to walk from there to Kennedy Drive which would be three kilometres along busy roads.” Ms Wharekawa said a friend who was part of the Daniel Morcombe Foundation said no children can be left behind. “I think that is the law after what happened to Daniel but my son didn’t want to say that,” she said. “I’m a single mum and maybe I’m being overprotective but I worry for them. “There are bad people out there in the community whether we like to admit it or not. “When I saw the post on Casuarina Cooee this week (about the two schoolboys being denied entry to a
Surfside bus) it sounded like exactly the same driver. “My son told his older brother and he said the same driver had done the same thing to him and his school friends. “He is eight years older so it’s been going on for years and they haven’t done anything about it. “There has to be a resolution. “There are a lot of kids in the area that go to schools they are not zoned for and they need a safe way home and parents need to know they are safe and they are not getting left at a bus stop.” Surfside Buslines said they could find no complaint under the name Wharekawa, with which it was lodged, but would look into the matter.

Residents plea for border opening as businesses suffer By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE resident Ava Crompton is set to turn 100 in September but fears she may never get a chance to visit her most treasured location at Elephant Rock in Currumbin, Queensland, due to the continuing border closure to NSW. The journey is Mrs Crompton’s favourite thing to do as it evokes fond memories and is the only thing she wants in life. Her family is now calling on the Queensland Premier to “please open the border soon”. Mrs Crompton is like many Tweed Shire senior residents in disarray with the Queensland Premier’s decision to keep the border closed including the increasing impact to Tweed businesses. Mrs Crompton’s daughter Narelle Crompton contacted The Weekly to share her mother’s story and said she was “fearful” as to whether she would get a chance to see Elephant Rock ever again. “It may not mean a lot to everyone, but it means a lot to her. At my mother’s age it is the simple things in life, she does not need money or anything else anymore, just to experience those locations with family.” Narelle said her mum is a “big hugger” and has missed the connection with people, “giving hugs and handshakes are sorely missed”. “My mother is turning 100 on September 21. Since we have moved here, we have been going to Currumbin for a lovely drive around
to Elephant Rock where we sit and watch the water. “Because of the border closure, I cannot do this lovely trip and she asks me when can we go over the border, I have been keeping her safe, so does this mean I may never give her that trip again?” While the emotional impacts are taking their toll, local businesses including the tourism sector is feeling the border restrictions. Tweed Chamber of Commerce board member John Weaver said it would be hard to estimate the overall losses to the Tweed Shire due to the border closure. He also expressed concern over recent reports from Gold Coast Tourism that estimated losses could cost the tourism sector up to $500 million in just two months. Mr Weaver slammed the decision to keep the border closed to NSW and he is joining a growing number of locals and Gold Coast residents calling for “a clear and defined date with the lifting of the border restrictions”. “The Chief Medical Officer said there was no need for border closures,” he said. “It’s frustrating for businesses that it just keeps changing. “The border should reopen in a matter of days not months or a month from now.” The Weekly spoke with Greater Southern Gold Coast Chamber of Commerce President Hilary Jacobs who criticised plans to keep the border closed and who pointed out that Tweed Heads and Coolangatta are among Australia’s largest bordering communities.
Ava Crompton (left) with her daughter Narelle are desperate to visit Currumbin before Ava turns 100 in September
“Given things are changing so quickly, it would be good to get some guidance about when it will open,” she said. Ms Jacobs said both the Tweed and Southern Gold Coast communities shared the impacts. “We welcome the fact that we have Queensland open to Queenslanders, but ideally we want to see the border open as soon as possible,” she said. “Greater Southern Gold Coast Chamber of Commerce was against the closure of the border and we
believe it should now have a clear date to open. “All businesses were asked to make a lot of sacrifices and we’ve not only reduced the curve, we’ve flatlined it.” Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said there had been reports that Queensland Police have “cannibalised” their specialised units such as the youth squad and homicide squad to staff the border. Mr Provest was also critical of Gold Coast Mayor Tom Tate for what he said was “lying down on the subject”.
“With the crime rates on the Gold Coast and the Queensland Police stretched, the mayor and the premier should agree to open the border up immediately,” he said. “This is taking valuable resources from the front line and achieving nothing. “It’s clearly a political stunt and it needs to stop.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Are you impacted by the border closure? Would you like to see it open as soon as possible? Send your thoughts and letters to editor@theweekly.net.au

Tweed Water Alliance celebrates win
Affordable
By Jonathon Howard TWEED WATER Alliance has thanked its members for helping stamp out the possibility of any new water bottling facilities across the Tweed Shire after the state government legislated to amend the Tweed Shire’s Local Environment Plan, on Friday, May 29. New water bottling facilities are no longer permitted in rural areas of the Tweed, following the completion of a planning proposal process started by Tweed Shire Council in late 2018. The draft Planning Proposal was publicly exhibited from August 20 to September 17, 2019. A total of 343 submissions were received in response to the exhibition with 338 in support of the proposal and five opposed. Existing approved water bottling facilities are allowed to continue their operations on the properties where they are currently approved, as required by the State Government. But the water alliance has vowed to keep an eye on “existing water miners” placing them “on notice”. “We will be watching every move, every report, every hollow spin about pure bottled water, every move to generate more profit for a few at the expense of a community asset,” the TWA statement said. “It’s not over yet. The current water miners are still removing millions of litres a year. This must stop.” Meanwhile, Mayor Katie Milne said she wanted to thank Tweed Shire Council staff.

“For their great work in persevering to provide a very well-reasoned justification for this planning proposal, based on the precautionary principle, after it was initially rejected by NSW Planning,” Mayor Milne said. “Water extraction has been one of the most contentious issues we have seen in Council. “It has been a very long and difficult chapter over many, many years and I’m sure the community will be thrilled with the news. “The community is to be commended for their outstanding campaign of sustained and concerted advocacy to protect the significant rural and environmental values of the Tweed.” Deputy Mayor Chris Cherry also welcomed the news. “This has been an outcome long sought after by the current Council and the community and is a big step towards achieving the community’s desire to move away from being known as the water bottling capital of NSW,” Cr Cherry said. “The proposal was thoroughly examined in light of the Chief Scientist’s Report into the sustainability of commercial water extraction in the Tweed Shire which highlighted how little is known about our hydrology and the underground connections which exist. “This change will help to protect our natural water resources in the Tweed Shire for future generations. “Amending the local planning laws sends a strong message out there with regards to the community’s sentiment on the water bottling industry.”

Laser Clinic Australia (LCA) opened at Tweed City in July last year and has been working closely with teenagers to combat their skin conditions including acne through advanced new skin techniques. The clinic opened on Monday, June 1, and many locals had gone untreated, but can now book an appointment to achieve their skin goals. Samantha Storer was one of the teens who found help through LCA and has had great results with noticeably less breakouts and scarring (see images before and after above). Ms Storer claims her journey of clearer skin would not have been possible without the help of the caring staff at LCA Tweed Heads.

By Jonathon Howard ONE OF Murwillumbah’s most popular cafes, Wild Thyme Dining, has reopened after the coronavirus shutdown and has completed some amazing new renovations. “Whilst closed for nine weeks this was a fantastic opportunity to complete our dreams,” said owners Todd Cochrane and Siobhan Quaine. “We’re totally passionate about providing our town with the best food and venue we possibly can and this gave us the chance to go for it. “As a local young family, we know how important it is for people to have a venue where fine food is served at reasonable prices and in an ambience to enjoy. “Our new all-weather awning provides the ideal situation for just that.” Mr Cochrane trained as a chef with Palazo Versace, a five-star resort on the Gold Coast
and has a been a professional chef all over Australia and Asia including Barrier Reef Resorts. “Fortunately, we’ve been blessed to have such fantastic staff during the COVID-19 lockdown,” Ms Quaine said. The couple said they owed a big “thank you” to their landlords, the Commonwealth Bank, Tweed Shire Council and Todd’s dad Mark for their support and assistance. The business also contracted CR Steel and Staff Building to undertake the works with advice from Tweed Shire Council to complete the awning in structural steel. “Unfortunately, social distancing will limit the number of seated customers, but we are doing takeaway and on Saturday nights special street food. Come and enjoy,” Mr Cochrane said. Check out Wild Thyme Dining at 1/4 Wharf Street, Murwillumbah, or phone: (02) 6672 3169.

Tweed Shire stars in the making feature on The Voice family, started singing when she was “12 or 13”. “I went through heaps and I didn’t have an outlet and I felt the only way to express myself was through music,” Siala said. “I had so many strong negative emotions and there was no other way for it to come out”. When she was 14, her Mum convinced her to do her first public gig at Marty’s at Caba. “I sang my own song, I always do my own songs and when I sang all these grown men were crying,” she said. “But I was so nervous, such an enclosed person. “When I did the Bluesfest busker gig, that was just in front of a few people, the parents of the kids. “ I d i d n’t m a ke i t i n t o t h e competition, my style was very grungy and my music was so dark. “I don’t think they digged it because I was so young. “I was thinking, they probably want Rosie someone to sing about rainbows not Siala singing about weird stuff.” Siala said she owes a lot to her good friend Jamahl who performs under the name Samurai. “We made a friendship from sharing our music and our past and our passion,” Siala said. “Just writing and rapping, he gave me so much confidence with my singing and rapping. “He rapped and I was writing heaps and he brought me into it and we were free styling and bouncing off each other and we were like, this is really good.

“We released a little Soundcloud song and everyone was frothing over it.” Siala sent a video of her song Teenage Fantasy to The Voice and a couple of weeks later, on the day her family was seeking shelter in a refuge, the call from The Voice producer came through. “She asked if I could make it there in two days,” Siala said. “She said if I could get to Brisbane she would pay for a taxi. “I was really thinking I wasn’t emotionally ready and then I decided I was sick of letting my mind hold me back. “I thought, stuff it I’m going to do it. “So I went up to the Marriott in Brisbane and they got me to sing a cover and then two of my originals
Free solar - savings up to $600 on electricity bills The NSW Government is trialling a new way to assist people on low incomes with their power bills by installing free solar systems for up to 3,000 eligible households in place of their Low Income Household Rebate. This program aims to improve energy affordability by helping households unlock long terms savings on their electricity bills. While this means you will no longer receive the $285 annual rebate on your electricity bill, you could receive up to $600 in savings per year from your new solar system! The program is only available to a limited number of households that live in the region and meet the eligibility criteria. When participating in this program households will receive a free, fully installed 3kW solar system in place of their Low-Income Household Rebate.
“It’s actually hectic, it’s slightly wigging me out. “Jessica Veronika DM’d me. It’s so weird. “When I was 14 I went to her crib in Brisbane and had a little strum on my guitar. “I asked if she remembered me. “She said she did and she said, you’re so talented, your voice is so needed in the world. “I’m so keen for everyone to hear my next song once the blinds end.” Siala wasn’t the only Tweed Shire girl rocking The Voice. Twelve-year-old Emmagen Rain from Murwillumbah became the youngest singer to ever appear on the show and ended up on Team Delta. Next week The Weekly will feature an interview with Emmagen about her journey on The Voice.

By Jo Kennett SIALA ROBSON had barely begun singing when the audience was on their feet and all four judges on The Voice were hitting their buzzers and turning their chairs. The 18-year-old Cabarita surfer barely noticed. “It’s so weird, I had this insane feeling of peace about me,” Siala said. “I just had my head forward and I was too chill, before and when I walked out. “I zoned out and then they had all turned but I was so in the moment I didn’t really notice, I was just focused on the crowd.” It was only the third public performance Siala had ever done. The first was an open mic gig at Cabarita restaurant and bar, Marty's at Caba, and the second was a failed attempt to get into the Byron Bay Bluesfest Busking Competition. How did the former Kingscliff High School student go from those two low key performances to absolutely owning the stage in front of a huge crowd and a television audience of nearly a million people? “When I stood up on the stage I looked at the crowd and back at the band and as soon as I started singing I felt the presence and energy of everyone and I felt like this is what I am meant to do,” Siala said. “I felt, you know, that feeling of home that had always been missing within me. “It’s the best feeling.” The self-taught artist, who spent a lot of her youth at the Tweed Coast Raiders field with her footy loving

It’s time to return to travel in the Tweed
AFTER A challenging few months of lockdown and business hibernation for most in the community, it feels like a relief to write the words – return to travel. Signalled by the NSW Government’s Phase 2 easing of restrictions, which has seen intrastate travel open up and restaurants, cafes and bars able to start serving seated patrons, we’re so pleased to see many Tweed businesses opening their doors again, locals out enjoying the winter sun and accommodation operators taking bookings – all of this in a COVID-safe way of course. We’ve also been able to start reopening our Visitor Information Centres, with the Tweed Heads centre open earlier this week and Kingscliff and Murwillumbah in the coming weeks. Our staff and volunteers are looking forward to welcoming holidaymakers back and being prepared ahead of the upcoming school holiday period. As we’ve done throughout the past months, we’re also evolving our marketing activity in line with the current situation and it’s great to be moving from ‘holiday-dreaming’ messages to ‘book now’ promotions. Our Love the Tweed campaign started with a strong ‘buy local’ focus at the onset of the pandemic and adapted through Mother’s Day promotions, our digital jigsaw puzzles (which we continue to add to – go to visitthetweed.com.au/puzzles to try them
out) and an immersive video series designed to inspire future holiday inspiration. Now, Love the Tweed will evolve into a more tactical campaign to invite visitors back and help local tourism businesses get their offers out via targeted digital advertising, social media activity and our website, visitthetweed.com.au. Importantly, we’re also really pleased to be partnering with Tweed Shire Council on the Tweed Resilient Leadership Program, a professional development opportunity that is designed to cultivate skilled leaders across the tourism, community and business sectors. The program has been fully subsidised by the NSW Government, with on-the-ground support from Tweed Tourism Company and Tweed Shire Council, and aims to nurture leadership qualities that can help to navigate teams through challenges and disruptions in order to recover in a resilient way. Set to commence in July, there are limited places available in the mentoring program and any interested individuals can learn more by contacting Sally Scott, our Industry Liaison, via sscott@thetweed.com.au In the meantime, enjoy your own return to travel and be sure to visit those local businesses in our region that are opening and getting back on their feet. Bradley Nardi is the General Manager for the Tweed Tourism Company, the region’s official tourism management and marketing organisation.

DEAD POETS SOCIETY
Another step on the road to ‘normality’ was taken last week with the reopening of schools, so I wanted to write about a classic movie on this subject. And while originally I would have liked to find a comedy about all that is funny or weird about going to school, I could not resist the urge to revisit instead the most inspirational film ever made about the relationship between students and teachers: Dead Poets Society, the 1989 Peter Weir film that had moved me and left a very deep impression when I first saw it at the time. Probably most people remember the movie’s plot – which won an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay among many other accolades: set in 1959 in a fictional elite conservative American boarding school, it tells the story of a teacher of English who inspires his students through his teaching of poetry. The film stars the late Robin Williams in the role of Mr. Keating, the eccentric teacher with very unconventional teaching methods, and young Ethan Hawke as one of his pupils. Together with other fellow students, the Ethan Hawke character joins the Dead Poets Society, an underground club of young people who read and write poetry. To think that practicing the art of poetry would be seen as questionable in an academic institution seems absurd, but that’s how the story goes. But together with the love of poetry Mr. Keating was teaching his students a fundamental idea, summarized in the Latin expression carpe diem (seize the day): to be individuals, to think for themselves, to fight for their convictions, to make their lives extraordinary. It is unfortunate that - quite predictably - such ideas would clash with the conservative approach of the academic authorities and of the students’ parents in the social and historical environment of the time, resulting in tragic consequences for both the students and Mr. Keating. But the final scene of the movie, marked by the sound of ‘O Captain! My Captain!’ sung by the students to Mr. Keating in defiance of the school, feels like the light at the end of a tunnel. And despite the fact that the movie now looks a bit dated through the lens of today, I bet that every one of us has had – or wish they had had – a Mr. Keating in their life.
By Jo Kennett THERE HAS never been a better time to be an Australian but COVID-19 restrictions have seen traditional citizenship ceremonies temporarily replaced with online versions. Pottsville’s Lozzie Watts has just taken part in an online ceremony and finally become a full-blown Aussie after sailing to Australia 45 years ago. “I had a party of 40 people arranged for March 30 and people were flying in for it from all around Australia,” she said. “It was going to be bigger than Ben Hur my citizenship; I would liken it to my wedding but three days before it was cancelled because of COVID-19. “I saw Peter Dutton on TV and he mentioned they were doing it online so I contacted the mayors office about it and got an email saying I was booked in for Thursday, May 28.” Lozzie said she just wanted to get it done because she had waited so long. “Two weeks before we had to go to a funeral through tele-conferencing and it was terrible, really heart wrenching and I was worried it wouldn’t be how I wanted it to be but it was really good,” she said. “It felt really personal. “It was very quick but there were a lot of emotions and it was very exciting. “I wore my Akubra and it was just really nice how they did it.” Lozzie was born in Belfast and then moved with her family to Cyprus, then Wales before coming to Australia. “My father was a Welsh miner and he got sponsored for a job in the Hunter Valley,” Lozzie said. “We came out on the Australis and it was a really big adventure because we sailed to the Canary islands and South Africa and all around Australia.
“It was four weeks of the best adventure any kid could have.” Lozzie found life in their new hometown of Singleton “a bit of a shock”. “When you come to Australia everything is so far away,’ she said. “I felt a bit isolated there and it took a while for me to adjust but I became good friends with kids that had farms and I did a lot of jillarooing and I absolutely loved Australia after that. “After Singleton we moved to Sydney then Albury, Narrabri and then to Lightning Ridge where we became opal miners - that was in 1995. “We lived on a claim and mined until it got so unbearably hot. “My husband had opal fever and he would have stayed but the team we were with struck opal a month after we left and he would still be there now if we had been there so I’m glad we left.” The Watts had stumbled upon Pottsville a few years earlier and fell in love. “We were on our way to Bargara (Qld) and made a detour and found Pottsville,” Lozzie recalled. “I looked in the real estate window and my husband’s sister’s sister-in-law came out and asked what we were doing, we didn’t know she was there. “We ended up staying for a few days and fell in love with the place and decided to buy a house here.” Lozzie lives on a canal in Pottsville and a running joke is that she owns the canal. “We have been here for 25 years and the canal is my canal,” she said. “It’s just a joke but we actually own a metre or two of it from our backyard, everyone who lives on the canal does. “I’ve lived in five different countries and I absolutely loved it.” Lozzie said it took her a long time to decide to become an Australian citizen

because her parents are Welsh “and I’m Welsh in my heart”. “Then two years ago I thought, hang it, I’m Australian,” she said. “We have fostered three of my nieces children and raised them and so I just felt a connection to Australia. I’ve loved Australia and been everywhere but being here I felt I belonged to Australia and it belonged to me. I felt compelled to do it and an urgency. “The world is changing and I wanted to do it but I didn’t realise how long I’d have to wait.” Lozzie said she was so overwhelmed with excitement when she was told she was now an Australian citizen that she screamed. “Then I had friends ringing and the whole day was just being congratulated and drinking champagne and having a nice time via the internet,” she said. “I am still euphoric, I am so happy and still excited from the experience of becoming Australian and being Australian. “I have a lot of people I know in Wales and they have relatives who have died from COVID-19 and we are so lucky here. “We are also lucky with the freedom we have and the lifestyle we have. “We live in the best country in the world.”

As a former player, a penalty was never good, but at least you got time to set your line and have a small break, that doesn’t exist anymore and the first try from Parramatta was scored on tackle 12 in a row. I feel clubs will start to adapt and learn as we go and I expect to see some good improvements, but gee it makes the game fast and exciting to watch. Hopefully we can have people in stands to watch live

HOW GOOD was it to have the footy back on. M y p h o n e wa s g o i n g bonkers all night on Thursday, mainly some heckling about the Broncos performance but it was so good to watch some footy. Biggest talking point wasn’t the one referee (but it was a nice change and seemed to work well) but the ‘repeat’ set of six concept. Some teams really thrived, while others struggled to adapt namely Brisbane and Melbourne.

puts them in good stead for season 2020, whatever coach O’Brien has done has had the desired effect. Some good kids in Best, Hoy and Jones debuting also who I’ve watched progress from junior reps is always nice to see. On that, great to hear junior rugby league will return on July 18 which is awesome news for all the kids. We are blessed to have some quality number 1s in our competition. The performances of Tedesco and Trbojevic last week was nothing short of scintillating. They are simply next level elite athletes with a struck match between them. Let’s do it all again this week.

the lengths the human body is going to in our great game. The Titans were a long way off the pace, the Bulldogs struggled and the Dragons are under the pump well and truly. T h e p e r fo r m a n c e o f the Warriors was a real highlight for me. Given the sacrifices they have made to ensure their team and the competition survives their display was amazing. Fortyfour straight sets completed was phenomenal. The best game was the Knights v Panthers. Not for the fact it went to Golden Point, as I am starting to lose some interest in the concept, but the effort and courage shown by the Knights was something to behold and

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals
Pubs and clubs are open for business By Jonathon Howard BEER TAPS are once again flowing across the Tweed Shire to the delight of locals and members as many iconic pubs and clubs reopened on Monday, June 1, following a nine-week shutdown due to coronavirus. Members were lining up at the doors of several clubs eager to eat, drink and be merry, as club operators welcomed their return of customers – all while observing strict new social distancing rules. The Weekly visited some of the shire’s popular venues to speak with locals, many of whom said they were lost without their local clubs. Murwillumbah’s Courthouse Hotel was among the first local venues to open their doors with several locals eager to assume their positions.
Dave Hile, William Cunningham, Wayne Johnson and Brian Newland (pictured below) all agreed they had missed their local while it was closed, but knew it would be back. “It’s great to be back at the Courthouse (Hotel),” Mr Newland said “I’ve been coming to here for the past 20 years and missed it while it was closed.” Twin Towns Club Banora members Eileen McPaul and Tommy Crossan said they were happy to be back at their local club. “We missed the raffles and dancing,” Eileen said. “We also missed the social interaction.” Regular Seagulls Club member Dan O’Brien kept walking past his beloved Seagulls waiting nine weeks for the club to reopen.
“I had to visit the park nearby and exercise, I missed the club that much,” he said. “It’s great to have it open again, I was one of the first through the doors.” Twin Towns Club members Trish and Dave Oldham have been visiting Twin Towns for the past 20 years and missed the club during lockdown. “We stayed at home and missed the club,” Mrs Oldham said. “We are pleased the club is now open.” Pottsville locals Brian Tabulo, Gary Chandler and David Honey are regular bowlers at the Pottsville Beach Sports Club and said they were getting bored at home. “We did a lot of home renovations and odd jobs,” Mr Honey said.

“It’s great to have the club back open and we’re just wondering when bowls will start up again.” Pottsville Tavern was buzzing at around lunchtime with locals observing social distancing and enjoying a meal and a drink. Local tradesmen included Ayden Rickman, Jake Whyte, Brendan Lavis, Jake Smith, Harvey Groth and Owen Paxton, said they were relieved their local was open again. The fellers agreed the break from the tavern had gone on long enough. “It’s great to have the tavern back open,” Mr Whyte said. One of the Tweed Valley’s most scenic venues the Riverview Hotel opened to fanfare on Monday, with several locals taking the day off for a drink at the Riv. Rhiannan Murray, Jo Bennett, Mitch Ayres and Shiva Haishkarem
said they were “hanging out” for their first drinks back. “It’s great to have the Riverview back, we took the day off just to be here,” the group said. Murwillumbah Services Club also reopened to members with locals Alec Chapman, Rohan Leape and Alexamdra Von Reinhaart saying they were “delighted” to have their club back. “I did a lot of odd jobs and passionfruit picking while the club was closed,” Mr Chapman said. “It’s great to have the club back open again.” Please note many clubs and pubs now have a requirement for people to sign both in and out to adhere to strict government health requirements.

COVID cops will visit licensed venues Gladys fit as a fiddle and loving life at 100 By Jo Kennett TWEED POLICE are taking part in an operation targeting public gatherings and licensed venues to ensure compliance around the new COVID-19 restrictions. Operation Pariac began on Monday, June 1, and will see “a high-visibility operation to ensure education and compliance around the Public Health Order conditions, relative to the easing of restrictions in licensed premises”. Tweed Police said they expect to see a lot more people moving around the state and heading to regional towns for holidays and trips this month. Operation Pariac Commander, Assistant Commissioner Max Mitchell APM, said that as restrictions continue to ease, venues and patrons need to be aware of their responsibilities to maintain a COVID-safe environment. “From today, the movement of people across the state will start to increase dramatically, as thousands of people head to regional communities to inject much-needed tourism dollars,” AC Mitchell said. “Police will be conducting random checks and patrols of licensed venues throughout our regions, with the ability for resources to be shared amongst police districts where the demand is needed – particularly across the Queen’s Birthday long weekend (Saturday, June 6 – Monday, June 8). “Operation Pariac, as part of a Vikings operation, will see officers working closely with industry and business owners to ensure they are able to operate safe environments for their customers, while making the public feel confident about returning to a COVIDsafe venue.” “Whether you’re heading to a winery in the Hunter Valley, a bar at Byron Bay, a pub on the bushfire-hit South Coast, or an RSL in drought-impacted areas out west – licensees and patrons alike need to be aware of their surroundings and the strict rules which now apply,” Assistant Commissioner Mitchell said.
AC Mitchell said that maintaining social distancing and ensuring Public Health Order compliance at licensed venues would be the focus of the month-long operation across regional NSW. “With the NSW Government easing of restrictions related to gatherings in public places imposed under the Public Health Order from today (Monday, June 1), an extended period of Operation Pariac has commenced and will be conducted until Tuesday, June 30,” he said. “Operation Pariac is a high-visibility operation regularly conducted by general duties and specialist licensing police in the Northern, Southern and Western Regions, but will have an altered focus for June 2020. “The operation aims to ensure education and compliance around the Public Health Order conditions, relative to the easing of restrictions in licensed premises. “Police will also be targeting alcohol-related crime, including assaults, anti-social behaviour and public order incidents.”
By Jo Kennett UKI PUBLIC School’s longest living student turned 100 this week and she credits her long life to having a big, loving family around her. Gladys Phillips turned 100 on Wednesday, June 3, but since the COVID-19 restrictions put a stop to her birthday party, her friends and family took turns visiting her to help celebrate the milestone. Mrs Phillips was also supposed to be the special guest this weekend at the Uki Public School 125th birthday but the COVID-19 restrictions have put that on hold as well. Mrs Phillips was born in Murwillumbah Hospital in 1920 and started school at Uki Public School in 1927 at the age of seven. “We had to be old enough to ride a horse before we could start school because there were no cars or buses back then,” she said. “I was born on King George’s birthday so I always used to get a holiday on my birthday.” Mrs Phillips is remarkably fit for her age. “I can still touch my toes,’ she said. “I used to do a lot of dancing and go to all the balls and that helped keep me fit. “I was a jazz dancer.” Mrs Phillip’s is not quite as excited as all her grandchildren about her getting a telegram from the Queen. “It just means I’m getting old,” she said. For many years Mrs Phillips ran the Fingal General Store with her husband Don, before he passed away. She was the first female taxi driver in the Tweed Shire and has three kids, her son Johnny having passed away many years ago. “It was terrible,” she said of his death. “He was such a loving person and a good father. “He had a great laugh and it’s still hard to think about it.” Mrs Phillip’s used to deliver newspapers early in the morning before the store opened and was known by everyone in the community.
Her memory of those time’s is still so sharp she can walk through Fingal in her mind and name who lived in every house. “Fingal’s a beautiful place,” she said. “I used to go out on the verandah and look out at the mountains, at Mt Warning after losing John and I’d look at the evening star and say to myself, Johnny’s up there and he’s looking down at me.” Mrs Phillips now lives with her daughter Colleen and husband Jim ‘Jingles’ Johnson at Round Mountain surrounded by the dogs and horses that she has always loved. She has 11 grandchildren and 26 great grandchildren and credits her continuing good health to having a loving family. “My son Des rings me every afternoon around 4pm,” Mrs Phillips said. “My other son Barry rings me two or three times a week as well. “I hear from the grandkids as well, they are all good kids. “I’m lucky with my family; they are nice people and they are all really good to me.”

When you awaken in the morning’s hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die.

Holding Shot with Judy Tuckey WITH 78 days between drinks at the local water holes, Monday, June 1, after the lifting of further restrictions, was certainly welcomed by many clubs and members across the shire. Like many other businesses, bowls clubs have also suffered financially and, most probably, will never catch up their loss of revenue suffered during the last few months. Condong Bowling Club, which will be re-opening next Wednesday, June 10, is one such club that has definitely been dealt serious blows when it comes to hardships of late. This great little club, established by the men in 1955 and joined by the women in
1957, has been held together over the years by a strong group of members and volunteers. The big floods in the late 1900s resulted in only the carpet getting wet. What a difference to the disastrous 2017 flood when the water reached the top of the bar leaving behind untold damage. However, the resilience of the members now has the club beginning to get back in front. Well, temporarily anyway, as COVID-19 has now appeared on the scene, causing more financial concerns. Over the years this special club has evolved into a close knit community hub, where supporting each other is the number one priority. Currently
it is home to Cane Toads Social Bowling, Galahs Social Bowling, Tweed Valley Jazz Club, Cosmic Line Dancing, WPT Power League, Dart Club, Sporting Car Club, Car Restorers Club and the Smoke House Country Music Club. How many other clubs can boast of having so many clubs gather and support each other under the one roof? Fundraising for any worthy cause is always on the Agenda and the Condong bowlers sure know how to raise money, and lots thereof, for all parties needing assistance. Members are presently missing playing bowls (see page 32) and the camaraderie enjoyed at their club. The club itself is fast draining it’s bank account due to the restrictions in place. Perhaps an injection of young/new blood at all levels would help the old heads. This, together with some

The countdown to the return of surfing competitions begins WELL THE hope for club rounds for Boardriders Clubs could be getting underway in late June or early July, and now it looks like there is even more light at the end of the tunnel with two contests already announcing they will be on, not withstanding and further large outbreaks of COVID-19. Looks like I will be able to get some work and step away from the Scomo Surf Team.
Byron Bay Boardriders to hold Park Hotel BK Classic and Willsy’s X-Groms in August
It will be the 45th year of the Park Hotel BK Classic, originally known as the Byron Easter Classic, then the BK Memorial Classic in memory of Byron Bay legend Ben King, will be held on August 28 to 30. A contest so steeped in history, and with a list of winners including Keiren Perrow, Danny Wills, and the 2019 Champ Connor O’Leary. There’s great prize money for this three day competition with a red hot field of surfers. This year due to current events there will be none of the older men’s age divisions, just the Open Men and Women both with some huge dollars up for grabs. The event also has the Willsy’s X-Groms, All Willsy X Groms,
By Rachael Lebeter FLYING FOXES and other bats in Australia have not been found to carry COVID-19 and cannot pass COVID-19 to humans. COVID-19 is a strain of coronavirus. There are many different coronaviruses found in different mammal species. In humans, the common cold is a form of coronavirus but there are more serious illnesses such as COVID-19. In animals, coronaviruses also exist and, very occasionally, these viruses can mutate and be passed on to humans. Since the advent of COVID-19, scientists have been trying to determine where it came from. There is some evidence to suggest that it may have originated in a Chinese species of microbat.
However, the virus would have to infect another animal species to be passed on to humans. No human has caught COVID-19 through direct contact with a bat or flying fox. Australian bats do not carry any coronaviruses that are similar to those that infect humans. They are not carriers of COVID-19 and cannot pass the disease on to people. In Australia, we have two main types of bat: microbats and flying foxes. Both of these types of bat are essential to the Australian environment. Microbats are mostly insectivores. They eat thousands of insects a night. If you have a lot of mosquitoes around your house, you might like to install a microbat box to encourage a colony for insect control. There are plans for microbat boxes available on the Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers website, www.tvwc.org.au. The average Tweed Valley resident is more familiar with flying foxes. We have multiple
colonies and it is lovely to watch the bats fly out from Uki or Tyalgum. Although it seems like there are a lot of flying foxes, this keystone species is in decline and needs our protection. If you are looking for a particularly nice spot to watch our local flying foxes, I recommend the old Byangum Bridge. Flying foxes drink in flight, skimming the river and then licking the water from their fur. The old bridge is a great spot to watch the bats skimming the river in the light of an autumn sunset. Flying foxes are essential to Australia’s forests. Many rainforest trees and eucalypts have evolved to be pollinated primarily by bats. Additionally, flying foxes are seed dispersers, travelling 20 kilometres or more in a night. Spreading seed is even more important now, as so many areas are beginning to recover from the bushfires. One of the greatest risks to flying foxes is becoming caught on a barbed wire fence. Flying foxes

that become caught on barbed wire literally tie their wings in knots when they hit the wire at speed and rotate around the strands. It can take a long time to untangle them. Because the animals are in pain and stressed, it can be easy to scare them and cause further damage. For this reason, we ask that people do not approach bats or other animals caught on fencing wire. Especially, please do not cut animals to get them off the wire. This is extremely painful for the animal and can cause permanent damage. Also, a lot of damage can only be detected when delicate membranes begin to break down several days after the injury occurs. This is why the animal must be assessed by an experienced wildlife rescuer. It is also easy to be bitten or scratched by a terrified animal trapped on wire. Keep well away and call the TVWC 24-hour Hotline on (02) 6672 4789. Our rescuers are especially trained in
with their fantastic community spirit, is sure to witness Condong Bowling Club succeed during these difficult times. Stay safe and healthy and be kind to each other. which is 16 years old and under divisions, with winners boys and girls receiving $500 cash for 16s, 14s, 12s, and 10s.

The rescheduled NSW SUP Titles and the NSW Longboard Titles will call Port Stephens home on the new dates of the August 20 to 25 (so long as the NSW Government says it’s safe to do so). The two-state title events will form the Port Stephens Surf Festival and decide the NSW Teams for the upcoming Australian SUP Titles and the Australian Longboard Titles. Over 200 competitors are expected to compete in the six-day event, which will see longboards run from August 20 to 22 and the SUP’s follow from the 22nd - 25th. Surfing NSW CEO Luke Madden says Port Stephens is the perfect location to host an event that encompasses not only surfing but also paddling. “We expect to see over 200 competitors partaking in the event over both disciplines in what is sure to be a spectacular display of wave riding and ocean paddling,” he said. removing animals from barbed wire without causing further damage.
