By Jonathon Howard A DEEPLY distressing story of an elderly man’s plight to find affordable accommodation in the Tweed Shire has surfaced this week, highlighting the increasing pressure our elderly residents are facing in a shrinking rental market. Thor Eriksen is 73 years old and living with Parkinson’s disease, bipolar and is a recovering alcoholic. Mr Eriksen said at the end of March his lease ran out at a Tweed Heads property and he was facing a rent hike. “The rent was too dear at $350 per week and with my old age pension, I was finding it difficult to afford,” he said. “I had joined flatmates and found a place at Carrara much cheaper for $200 per week, everything included, but it was share accommodation.” Mr Eriksen said he decided to travel across the border to Queensland to attempt to gain an affordable rental. “I went to Queensland Housing and they arranged the bond and the rent in advance but said it could take up to 15 days to come through,” he said. “I rang the lady who had the townhouse and said I could only give her $200 for the first week, then $800 from my pension which was due on the 7th, $400 bond, $400 for two weeks in advance. “I explained the Qld Govt would pay the rest but it would take up to 15 days. “On the following Friday she questioned “where is your $200 to stay

Guilty verdict for Cobaki Lakes developer

THE DEVELOPER behind the Cobaki Lakes estate has been found guilty of environmental breaches after undertaking unlawful earthworks at their 606 hectare development site. The Land and Environment Court ruled on April 18, that Leda was guilty of exceeding a 5.59 hectare limit on the amount of earthworks they could undertake at one time across several precincts. Leda told the court the earthworks were undertaken in accordance with development consent granted by Tweed Shire Council, but the court ruled they were in contravention of their Project Approval, granted by the Department of Planning and Environment (DPE) in 2011. The court heard site inspections carried out by of Steward McLachlan, a Senior Compliance Officer with the DPE, found Leda had exceeded their 5.59 hectare earthworks limit between April 2014 and March 2017, with the October 2014 site inspection revealing a total of 85 hectares of earthworks. Leda was also found guilty of removing earth from an area that was not approved

for earthworks - by taking fill from an earth mound in Wallum Froglet forage habitat. Prior to the court hearing, a letter from Leda’s solictiors to the DPE, dated April 19, 2017, admitted to contravening the bulk earthworks condition (21A(b)). “Our client admits for part of the period between January 2014 and September 2016 works that were regulated by project approval 08_0200 were not carried out in strict compliance with condition 21A(b),” the letter stated. “That is, in carrying out bulk earthworks under the project approval, the maximum exposed disturbed area relating such works (that had not been permanently revegetated) exceeded the maximum of five hectares set by condition 21A(b). “In considering what action the Department will now take, we ask the Department to bear in mind that there was no material adverse environmental impact from the breach. “Our client deeply regrets and apologises for the two breaches outlined above. There was clearly a failure on our client’s internal systems. Our client acknowledges that such failures cannot

be tolerated and it must ensure that such failures do not re-occur.” Leda’s solicitors said because there was “no or only low environmental harm – a penalty notice would not normally be issued”. The letter also said due to their client’s cooperation “these breaches should be assessed as only having low significance” and “an appropriate response in the circumstances would be to issue a warning or advisory letter (ie an official caution) in relation to both breaches”. Prior to the court hearing, Leda had sought to withdraw the admissions made in the letter, but this was rejected by the DPE and the letter was used as evidence before the court. A sentencing hearing is expected to take place this month, and the company could be in for a hefty fine. Changes made to the EP&A Act in 2015 increased the maximum penalty for serious environmental breaches to a maximum of $5 million for corporations and $2 million for second tier offences that were committed after July 31, 2015. The Weekly attempted to contact Leda for comment.

Seeking an informed answer

Mr Rose, TSC Manager of Roads, states (TVW May 2), that “repair of Overall Drive has been delayed several times by matters beyond our control”. My question is what can be beyond the control of the council in this council related matter? Surely the council has to be in control of council matters. What will be the consequence if they just go ahead and carry out this badly needed roadwork? Is there a consequence at all? Is there a legal issue involved in this? This is something quite beyond my understanding and I would appreciate an informed answer to my question. Mary Wiseman, Pottsville

Climate change fight futile

As the global output of carbon dioxide is increasing annually by much more than Australia’s total annual output, wouldn’t it make more sense for Australia to devote its efforts to remediation? For example, constructing a national network of dams and pipelines to utilise Australia’s ample rainfall, rather than ruin Australia’s economy by futile efforts to stop climate change. Gerry Worsell, Tweed Shire

Adani protest off to Canberra

Matthew Fraser, Nationals candidate for Richmond, in his reported comment in The Weekly last week (Passions ignited as Tweed couple travel to Adani site) has failed to condemn, and instead excuses, the intimidation we Stop Adani Convoy participants received at Clermont in Queensland. In this hopefully still democratic and civilised country it is very worrying that we cannot express our views without such abuse and intimidation. Our presence in Clermont was entirely lawful and peaceful and was not for a rally. It was to participate in the peaceful and beautiful Karmoo water dreaming ceremony at the

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

invitation of our hosts, the Wangan and Jagalingou people on their land at Clermont. The decision to concurrently hold a pro-Adani rally on the day we arrived in the town with four far right politicians (Clive Palmer, Matt Canavan, and One Nation’s Pauline Hanson and Malcolm Roberts) was certainly not ours. Also, contrary to what Matthew Fraser says, an entire town did not rally against us. Indeed we received letters from residents who wanted to let us know they were deeply embarrassed by and apologised for those who intimidated us with stones, made rude gestures, interfered with our cars, detonated mine explosives late at night near our campground and caused one of our women to be injured and taken to hospital. Happily, despite this aggression and interference, we completed the ceremony and celebration given to us by the Wangan and Jagalingou people. The convoy then left as planned, but with a police escort. It is now on its way to Canberra where there will be a rally calling for serious action on climate change including protection of the Artesian Basin water in the Galilee Basin, the stopping of new coal mines and particularly the Adani mine which is licensed to someone with a disastrous environmental record even in his own country. Nola and Barry Firth, Murwillumbah

Removing of credits unjust

In response to Brian Bycroft’s letter on franking credits (TVW, May 2), I too am a retiree, and presume that unlike Brian, I do have a modest shareholding and receive a small imputation credit. This is not a gift or paid for by Australian taxpayers. The imputation credit is tax paid by the company on the shareholder’s behalf for earnings within Australia, entitled as part-owner of the company. As such, it is included as gross earnings by the shareholder. This amount is then applied as a credit at the end of the financial year. If this was paid directly to the shareholders it would be tax free and retained by the individual if below the threshold. There would be no gain for either party but a lot more paperwork and expense for the ATO recovering what is now automatically paid by companies. If one works for a wage or sole trader but earns less than the tax threshold, any tax withheld is refunded. Do we apply logic and stop this as well? In my opinion removing imputation credits is unjust and it will also be a disincentive to companies investing in Australia.

This imputation amount will go off shore. We all rely on income streams be it dividends, interest, wages, pensions and none of these can be guaranteed. Geoff Muir, Tweed

Council on Black Rocks Field

We wanted to provide you with the following update on the recent resolution on the Pottsville Men’s Shed – and your subsequent coverage: Council passed a resolution at its meeting on 17 April 2019 in support of a proposal to grant a licence of an area of land at Black Rocks Field, Pottsville, to the Men’s Shed for a period of 5 years with an option to renew for a further 5 years commencing upon the expiry of the existing licence agreement in 2022. In order to comply with the community consultation requirements of the Local Government Act 1993, the Council will consider a report at its next scheduled ordinary meeting on 16 May 2019 recommending that, in accordance with that Act, the resolution passed on 17 April 2019 is altered to effect that the proposal is publicly notified and exhibited and that public submissions are invited on the proposal. After the period for public submissions has closed, and in accordance with the Act, the Council will consider any public submissions it has received and decide whether to endorse the proposal to grant the licence at a further meeting. The report to the Council will also recommend that the Council develops a master plan for the Black Rocks Sports Field by the end of the 2019 calendar year and that a request to extend the area of the licence is considered in the development of the master plan. Tweed Shire Council comment

Model planes not a concern

I note the articles in The Weekly about the use of Black Rocks Sports Field. I am a member of a model aircraft flying club that regularly uses this field and I would like to refute the suggestion by our esteemed mayor that flying petrol-powered model aeroplanes is a concern. Our club is called Far North Coast Electric Fliers and fly only electric powered aircraft - we are very conscious of the need to reduce noise levels in this area and want to assert that we are not the culprits that the mayor suggests. We never fly petrol-powered aircraft. You may be aware that electric cars make little noise. Well, our aircraft are like those. Further, our club is registered with the state and national model aircraft associations, and has a clearance

from the Civil Aviation Safety Authority to fly to 1000 feet in this location, and a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) has been issued to fullsize aviation pilots to avoid the area. Part of our due diligence in obtaining these clearances was to prepare a risk assessment for the use of this field and present it to Council, who subsequently gave us a licence to use the site. The risk assessment included a note to keep clear of the previous site of an Osprey nest (which incidentally, no longer exists), and that the Tweed Council is listed as a party of interest in our $20 million dollars risk insurance policy. I mention all these factors to indicate that we are a responsible body making great use of the Black Rocks Sports Field. I have been flying there for over nine years now, and look forward to continued responsible use of this great site. Peter Pine, President FNCEF

Full thank you letter

On Wednesday, March 27, our beautiful 18-year-old daughter Samantha was involved in a serious single vehicle motor accident on Tyalgum Road, Eungella. We wish to personally thank the following people who all helped bring her home to us. Without the support of these people she would not be with us today. The couple who were the first to stop because “the tyre marks looked fresh”. We don’t know who you are, but we will be forever grateful. You saved a life that day and kept a loving family together which otherwise would have been eternally heartbroken. Sarah Guinea, who thoughtfully also stopped. Senior Constable Davison, who kept her talking and held her head and hand until help arrived. All the crew and volunteers from the following organisations, we hear that there were about 30 of you. We wish we could thank each one of you individually, you were able to get her out safely and efficiently. Once again this is why she is with us today. • Tweed District Rescue Squad, NSW Volunteer Rescue Association • Tweed Byron Police District • NSW Ambulance • Traffic and Highway Patrol Command – NSW Police Force • NSW Rural Fire Service • Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter. We are one of the lucky ones and we appreciate the dedication of the services that each one of you contribute to with each emergency you attend. This is something you hope no family will ever go through but know that here in Murwillumbah we have dedicated

people who tirelessly put their lives on the line to save another. To our family and friends who have and are supporting us with Samantha’s recovery and rehabilitation and the services of the following local friends who helped with the modifications to make her recovery at home more comfortable and less difficult. • Jack Baartz Carpentry and Joinery • Border Plumbing Pty Ltd – Adam and Leonie • Craig and Sherrie Evans • Stuart Sayer To the surgeons, doctors, ICU nurses, Trauma Service nurses, Trauma Ward and numerous other teams and departments that put her broken body back together from Gold Coast University Hospital. You took care of our precious girl and excelled in your competency, compassion, empathy, care and kindness in every way possible and supported our family through the most difficult and traumatic time of our lives. Thank you we are indebted to you all. Brad, Tanya, Jack, Samantha and Max Milne

Give some Vinnies value this Mother’s Day

The love and dedication of mothers around Australia will be celebrated this Sunday, with children of all ages now organising special Mother’s Day presents and other signs of their appreciation. There’s no better way to show your mum how much you love her than by offering a quality gift from your local Vinnies shop. Gift giving from Vinnies makes sense on so many levels. Everything stocked in our shops has been carefully vetted to ensure it’s in top condition. Next, the prices represent an absolute bargain, whether on branded clothing or knick-knacks for the home. Another positive is that by s h o p p i n g at Vi n n i e s yo u ’re supporting one of Australia’s best recycling organisations, with the added benefit that all the money made from sales in our 28 North Coast shops is allocated to Vinnies social support work in local communities. Our 1000-plus shop helpers are volunteers, which means that all our income can be directed to families and individuals doing it tough.

Leaked memo shows funding cuts to Kingscliff aged care workers By Jo Kennett FEDERAL GOVERNMENT funding cuts to the aged care sector have led to a reduction in hours for staff at a Kingscliff aged care facility, according to a union spokesperson. A leaked memo from Feros Care stated that staff hours would be cut at Kingscliff, Bangalow and Byron Bay Feros Care facilities as a result of the funding cuts. HSU NSW Secretary Gerard Hayes said job cuts (at the Uniting Caroona aged care facility in Goonellabah) and shift reductions at Feros Care were a blow to local workers and to aged care residents. “The Federal Government has wound back aged care funding by almost $2 billion, putting further pressure on the aged care sector at a time when it is already struggling to cope,” Mr Hayes said.

“The reality is now starting to bite in places like Goonellabah, Kingscliff, Byron Bay and Bangalow. “These cuts to jobs and shifts will hurt local workers and their families, while also bringing into question the level of care that can be provided to aged care residents.” A leaked internal memo from Feros Cares, dated April 15, 2019, stated, “further reviews (of working hours) are necessary to accommodate the reduction in ACFI (Aged Care Funding Instrument) funding.” However, the CEO of Feros Care, Jennene Buckley, told The Weekly that there were always fluctuations in staff hours. “As it’s always been the case (at Feros Care and all other aged care facilities), rostered hours fluctuate over any given year/periods based on occupancy, the level of care

needed and funding available,” Ms Buckley said. Mr Hayes said industry research showed that 41 per cent of Australian aged care facilities have been operating at a loss, while in outer regional and remote areas, 58 per cent of aged care facilities operated at a loss. “ T h e A g e d C a r e Ro y a l Commission has exposed a stark reality: the aged care model in Australia is broken,” Mr Hayes said. “Operators are being forced to continually reduce their labour costs by cutting staff and increasing their reliance on casual employment, outsourcing and labour hire. “It’s time to rethink the way we fund aged care and look after our older Australians.” Fe ro s C a r e a n n o u n c e d i n April it had completed a major

By Jonathon Howard A NEW business chamber idea, known as Tweed Coast Beaches Chamber of Commerce, hosted its first meeting on Tuesday, May 7, with a view to officially forming in the coming weeks. More than 30 local business owners and operators attended the meeting at the Cabarita Beach Bowls Club, with the club providing its function room free of charge for the meeting. Among the guests included NSW Business Chamber regional manager Jane Laverty who told The Weekly she was excited to get the call and to

see the coastal villages come together and champion opportunities for business growth. Pacific Southwest Strategy Group principals Meagan Kruger and Richard Elliott chaired the first meeting to gauge community interest and work towards formation. “At this point we need to get the word out about developing and growing the Tweed Coast Beaches Chamber of Commerce into a thriving network,” Mrs Kruger said. “This being our first meeting we are not yet formed but have a lot of interest.”

Mrs Laverty said she can see potential for the Tweed Coast Beaches Chamber to receive up to 100 members or more. “This is a growing area and there’s also a lot of home businesses across the Tweed Coast that can use a chamber network such as this one,” she said. Local business tourism operator from Mt Warning Tours Michael Simmons was a guest speaker.

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Good Samaritan to the rescue with metal detector

If you are involved in some sort of legal dispute you may be called before a court for what is called a directions hearing. Anneka Frayne of Stacks Law Firm explains just what is involved, and how you should prepare yourself for such a court appearance. “If you are involved in a legal dispute your matter could be listed before a court for a directions hearing,” Ms Frayne said. “This is a short court appearance where a judge or registrar will make orders for what the next step will be in the dispute.” In the NSW Supreme Court, a first directions hearing will usually be scheduled three months after the matter has entered the court list. “The first directions hearing alerts those involved that there is a legal matter before the court. The judge or registrar will usually direct the parties to try to resolve the matter by mediation before it ends up in court. “It is in the interests of all parties to try to resolve the legal dispute in the mediation process. It saves time and money, as well as stress,” Ms Frayne said. If mediation fails or one of the parties fails to comply with the direction, then it comes back to the court for further directions hearings. This time the court will spell out what legal procedures will happen next in what’s called “short minutes of orders”. The aim will be to reduce the cost and time that the legal proceedings will take. The orders will be numbered, and may include: • when and how the parties should attend further mediation • when the case will be back in court for another directions hearing • serving and filing points of claim or a Statement of Claim • serving and filing evidence • the making of admissions • the filing of a list of documents and supplying those documents to all other parties in the proceedings • creating a timetable for the exchange of expert reports • deciding the way to give evidence, either by affidavit evidence, or in person in court, or by using telephone or video conferencing facilities • a date for a further directions hearing “You will need to supply everything relevant to the case to your solicitor so they can represent you properly at a directions hearing,” Ms Frayne said.

Alan Davis is a good local bloke who could help ﬁnd your lost valuables

“I meet lots of lovely people,” he said. “Some of them say, what’s the best thing you’ve ever found and sometimes I say, you. “The last person I said it to, said what a lovely thing to say but it’s true. “I love it when they stop and talk to me and they say, what’s the best thing you’ve ever found. “I tell them a gold nugget which is true but I can’t remember where I found it, which sounds strange, but it was in a rock I picked up and put aside and later it turned out to have gold in it.” Mr Davis does his work free of charge as a community service between Black Rocks and Cabarita and said he has even worked in people’s yards and horse paddocks. “I think some people worry that I will keep the stuff but that’s not what I do it for,” he said. “If I wanted to make money I’d be out in the goldfields, most the stuff I find is not worth anything much - I have a notice on my car which says, if I wanted to make money from people’s losses I’d own a casino. “One of the ambitions I had was to find something valuable and be able to return it to someone. “I have done that - I found a man’s ring with an inscription and a lady saw a social media post and rang me and

said her husband had lost a ring a few weeks back and she described it and I had already found it.” Mr Davis said he also helps to keep local beaches clean by picking up a lot of metal rubbish. “Things like broken glass, or jagged bottle necks which are really dangerous and rusty bits of wire, nails, screws, nut bolts, heaps of cans, fishing line and hooks and sinkers,” he said. “I pick up fishing lines because I don’t want the birds to get caught. “There are thousands of stubbie top caps on the beaches. Sure, they rust but there is a plastic seal on the inside and that doesn’t break down.” Mr Davis said kids are fascinated by what he does. “The children love it. They want to know what you’re doing and if you’re finding treasure,” he said. “I say well that would be nice and if I start digging, they want to see what’s in that hole - it’s lovely. “The outdoors, the sunshine, the fresh air; have a look at this (Mooball Creek), it’s beautiful and they all say, another lovely day in paradise. “I’ve met some beautiful people doing this and I just love it.” Mr Davis would like to let others know he is out there if help is needed. He can be contacted on (02) 6676 2685. 72636

How should I prepare for a directions hearing?

By Jo Kennett A POTTSVILLE good Samaritan who helps people find lost items for free, has come to the rescue of a visitor by finding his lost his car keys. The owner of the keys, Paul Blain from Newcastle, contacted The Weekly about the kind act. “I recently lost my keys at Pottsville Creek while on holidays,” Mr Blain said in an email. “Two days later I received an email telling me they had been found. “Alan Davis is a local who uses his metal detecting skills, free of charge, to assist people to find lost items. “Alan had found my keys, tracked me down in Newcastle thanks to my NRMA tag on the key ring and posted them back to me. “The key would have cost $400 to replace. That’s real community spirit at work. “He was the most lovely bloke, he couldn’t do enough for us. He was sensational.” Mr Davis said he found the keys with his metal detector on the beach at Mooball Creek, Pottsville (pictured). “It was a bunch of keys with a remote and they are very pricey to replace,” he said. “It had an NRMA tag on it and I had trouble trying to get through to them, but my partner Narelle rang the NRMA chap in Mullumbimby and he looked the car up and sent him an email and then Paul, the owner, rang us. He was a very nice young man.” Mr Davis has a notebook full of the contact details of people who have lost items in case he comes across them. “Oddly enough when someone asks me to look for something I usually can’t find - it’s more likely that I will already have found an item and have it at home,” he said. “There are reasons for that - people think they know where they might have dropped it but it’s not actually in that place or sometimes, they drop it in the loose sand at the beach and it disappears quickly, or someone picks it up. “I want people to talk to me and tell me what they’ve lost because if I find something, how do a know what to do with it? “I have things at home not worth the crown jewels, but it could be of sentimental value to someone.” Mr Davis said the best thing about metal detecting was the people he meets.

Staff pledge to drive so others survive Council staff are taking a pledge en masse this week to drive so others survive. It’s National Road Safety Week (6 –12 May) and you’ll see Council vehicles out and about all week flying a yellow ribbon to remind everyone to be mindful of road safety and to drive as if your own family is on the road ahead. If you see one of our vehicles displaying a ribbon you know that the driver has taken the pledge to avoid putting people at risk by speeding, driving while tired or while using a mobile phone.

Every year, more than 1,200 people are killed and another 35,000 seriously injured on Australian roads. Traffic injury is the biggest killer of Australian children under 15 and the second-biggest killer of all Australians aged between 15 and 24. Take the pledge yourself at www.roadsafetyweek.net.au National Road Safety Week is an annual initiative from the Safer Australian Roads and Highways (SARAH) Group, partnering road safety organisations and Government.

Improvements to fix the missing link at Faulks Park Council starts work this week to build a missing link of shared-user path across informal parkland south of Faulks Park at Kingscliff. The link will connect Cudgen Creek boardwalk and Faulks Park and clearly delineate pedestrian and cycling pathways at the irregularly shaped intersection of Marine Parade, Moss Street and the unnamed road that leads to the boat ramp. Currently the pathways are confusing at the intersection, with overflow parking on the grass, misaligned kerb ramps and a lack

of line-markings. Three formal parking bays will be installed near the boat ramp to compensate the loss of informal parking. In the second stage of the project, Council will demolish the old shelter near the boat ramp and build a new one to match those in Lions and Rowan Robinson parks. The park furniture will be upgraded in the precinct and a new outdoor shower installed at the top of the boat ramp. The area will be closed to the public during works.

Some green bin questions answered Yes

How you sort your waste and what you place in your bins has a direct impact on waste fees and charges. Treat your green (and yellow) bins with care and only place correct items in them. It costs less to process the yellow and green bins when they are used responsibly and have correct items in them, rather than spending additional money to sort them out after collection. The larger the red bin, the higher the cost due to the State Goverment waste levy which Council does not have control over. The less sorting that needs to be done after collection and the less that goes to landfill, the better off our environment and bank accounts will be. For information about what goes in your bins visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/Waste or email waste@tweed.nsw.gov.au

Multiple cases of parasite infection at Pottsville causes concerns

By Jo Kennett AN OUTBREAK of illness from a parasite infection in the Pottsville area has residents concerned about the possible source. Dientamoeba fragilis is a species of single-celled excavates found in the gastrointestinal tract of some humans, pigs and gorillas. It causes gastrointestinal upset in some people, but not in others and a cause of travellers diarrhoea, chronic diarrhoea, fatigue and, in children, failure to thrive. Pottsville resident Mel Crawford doesn’t know how she contracted the parasite and said their could be hundreds of cases. “I haven’t been in the creek for years,” she said. “My doctor thought it might be in the water - he has multiple cases with this infection. “It’s just really, really strange that so many people have this infection. “My daughter has been tested - she is 14 - and she has it too ,but it’s not affecting her as much as it did me.” Ms Crawford said that her children often swam in the creek “It’s contagious so there is a possibility I got it from them,” she said “They swim there often in summer - my son has been there a few times jumping off the bridge with his friends so that could be a possibility.” Ms Crawford said she went to the doctors after getting different symptoms including lethargy. “I probably had it for a few weeks and then I started getting really tired and that’s when I got the blood and

stool and they found the parasite,” she said. “My doctor said that some people could get misdiagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome and not be tested for this parasite. “I was talking to some parents the other day who had children who were lethargic but hadn’t been tested for it, so they were going to get them tested. “I’m on antibiotics but my friend has had three lots of antibiotics but said the last two times he got rid of it with papaya seeds.” Ms Crawford said she was halfway through antibiotic treatment and slowly starting to improve. The Weekly contacted Tweed Shire Council about the parasite who confirmed the water is tested regularly and showing no signs of problems. “Following your enquiry we have spoken with Environmental Health Officers at NSW Health and they are not aware of a specific concern in the Northern Rivers with regard to an outbreak of the Dientamoeba fragilis parasite,” a Council spokesperson said. “The Tweed’s reticulated water supply for this area is processed at Bray Park Water Treatment Park. “This plant uses ultrafiltration membrane technology that is very effective in removing pathogens. “Furthermore, the Public Health Act requires our water quality assurance program to comply with the Australian Drinking Water Guidelines. “This means we test our tap water every week for a vast range of chemical and microbiological

Mooball creek could have been the source of the parasite outbreak. Inset is a microscopic image of the parasite

contaminants, ensuring that it is always safe to drink. “Routine monitoring of water quality in Mooball Creek in late 2018 and in 2019 found the site to be in the Good and Fair range for recreational activities.” Mooball Creek mouth closed up last year and at the time local residents expressed concerns about water quality as the creek backed up after days of rain. Council closed the creek to the public for swimming on October 12 because of the poor water quality. Council had to wait for approval to open the creek mouth from the state government and did so as soon as that was received on October 16. According to Health NSW, the parasite Dientamoeba fragilis is common but many people who are infected do not have any symptoms. In those that do show symptoms, these include loose stools, diarrhoea

and abdominal pain. Other reported symptoms are weight loss, loss of appetite, nausea and fatigue. The Weekly contacted a Pottsville medical centre but they were unable to comment. A spokesperson from the Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD) said they had no information about the outbreak “as this condition is not notifiable”. “We don’t collect information about the numbers of people who may be diagnosed,” the spokesperson said. “As people may carry the parasite without showing symptoms, its detection may be an incidental finding only. It’s commonly found in the gastrointestinal tract.” According to Health NSW, how Dientamoeba fragilis is spread is unclear. “Given that the parasite is found in the gastrointestinal tract,

transmission is most likely to occur via the faecal-oral route,” the Health NSW website states. “This means that infection might occur if you bring something to your mouth that has touched the faeces of a person infected with Dientamoeba fragilis or if you swallow food or water contaminated with the parasite.” Apart from practising good sanitation and hand washing, the website states that other ways to safeguard against infection are to avoid food or water that may be contaminated by sewage and to wash and peel all raw vegetables and fruits before eating. Anyone showing symptoms of infection can be diagnosed through stool testing available at local medical centres. According to Health NSW, medication is available for treatment.

The funding will go towards replacing the existing double roundabout at the Kennedy Drive / M1 Pacific Motorway interchange with twin traffic signals, including an upgrade to the Ducat Street intersection. Currently the double roundabouts, known as the ‘dogbone’, are made up of two staggered junctions that slow the flow of traffic, creating congestion and causing safety risks for motorists. “Tweed Shire Council has identified both infrastructure projects as a major priority,” Mrs Elliot said. “There is enormous potential for retail and commercial business as well, and this area is earmarked for significant housing growth. “Labor’s support for major projects continues to deliver much-needed jobs for our region. “Labor’s investment in Kirkwood Road and Kennedy Drive will ease congestion, reduce travel times, and meet the growing needs of the Tweed region. “Major infrastructure projects are important enablers of regional economies over time, but they also deliver a lot of jobs during the construction phase. “Our region benefitted from a number of major projects funded by the former Labor Government. “These included the Sexton Hill Bypass and the Tintenbar to Ewingsdale Bypass, which were part of the duplication of the Pacific Highway. “Only a Shorten Labor Government can be relied upon to invest in the road infrastructure regional Australia needs to not only boost productivity and drive economic development, but also to deliver safer driving conditions for all motorists and road users.”

By Jonathon Howard LABOR CONTINUES to roll out the promises for the Tweed Shire with the latest investment a pledge to invest $52.2 million to progress work on the Kirkwood Road Interchange and Kennedy Drive Interchange. Labor Shadow Minister for Infrastructure, Transport, Cities and Regional Development Anthony Albanese on Friday, May 3, joined Member for Richmond, Justine Elliot, to announce the funding commitment. The Kirkwood Road Interchange will tackle existing traffic congestion and future proof the road transportation needs of the Tweed region’s growing population by linking Fraser Drive to Kirkwood Road East and Minjungbal Drive, including on and off ramps from the M1 Pacific Motorway. The Kirkwood Road Interchange will provide alternative routes for commuters accessing the M1 Pacific Highway, and ease traffic congestion along Dry Dock Road and Kennedy Drive. Mrs Elliot said the May 18 election is a choice between Labor’s plan for better infrastructure investment, “or bigger tax loopholes for the top end of town under the Liberals and Nationals”. “Today’s announcement of Federal Labor’s commitment of $48.1 million towards the Kirkwood Road Interchange builds on Labor’s strong record of delivering for our region,” she said. Locals will also benefit from a further $4.1 million investment to deliver a critical safety upgrade to one of Tweed’s most notorious intersections on Kennedy Drive. Tweed Shire Council will match the funding, bringing the total amount to $8.2 million.

Fix Tweed Valley Way says local after son’s accident Drunk driver nabbed at 0.255 TWEED POLICE have recently nabbed a high-range drink driver at Pottsville following a minor traffic accident. Police said it was about 4.10am when a 25-year-old Pottsville man was detained by local residents after allegedly being involved in a minor traffic collision at Watego Drive. Officers arrived at the scene a short time later and the man was subject to a breath

“I cannot understand why Tweed Valley Way, our main connected road, is in such poor condition especially between Condong and Oaks Avenue,” he said. Mr Scholl said it was difficult for cars to reach the speed limit of 100km per hour in several parts where potholes and water can accumulate. “I’m hoping to speak with Tweed Shire Council about my concerns as well as our local state and federal members,” he said. “Something needs to be done to prevent these accidents from occurring on Tweed Valley Way. “The condition of the road is just pathetic. “There was a car fire on Tweed Valley Way near Tumbulgum months ago and the road hasn’t been repaired since. “There’s patch over patch on this main road and it’s dangerous for motorists.” Mr Scholl said he’s concerned about the drainage on Tweed Valley Way, which receives a large amount of rainfall annually. “The road needs better drainage and needs to be fixed to handle all the

equipment and vehicles using the road in and out of the Tweed Valley,” he said. “This is one of the most heavily used roads in Northern NSW and it’s not up to the standard that’s required to be safe and allow motorists to do the speed limit.” Mr Scholl said his son was “adamant” that he was under the speed limit when the bike aquaplaned and lost control. “Despite riding to suit the conditions, the road is completely uneven, and this is causing accidents to occur,” he said. “I’d like other motorists to come forward and express their thoughts about Tweed Valley Way and let’s get some action undertaken to fix this main road instead of patching it.” Tweed Shire Council was contacted by The Weekly but declined to comment on this matter.

By Jonathon Howard A TERRIBLE motorcycle accident on Tweed Valley Way on Friday, May 3, has raised concerns about the condition of the road’s drainage with a local father fuming and calling on all levels of government to “fix our bloody main road”. Murwillumbah local Brad Scholl, 21, left his Murwillumbah home to ride to work at about 9.30pm on Friday when he hit some water on Tweed Valley Way near Stotts Island near Bruce Chick Conservation Park. Brad lost control while aquaplaning and flipped over the handlebars of his motorbike. A car following behind Brad, which had a young P-plate motorist behind the wheel, ran over Brad’s bike causing the vehicle to come to a sudden halt. Brad stood up immediately after the accident and was screaming for someone to help get him to hospital. The young motorist then ended up driving Brad to The Tweed Hospital where he underwent treatment and tests for a range of injuries including neck and head injuries. His father and local Joe Scholl said his helmet had saved his son’s life. Brad’s condition remains stable however he has since returned to hospital several times for further tests. Joe said Brad was feeling terrible on Saturday night slurring his words and was unable to finish his sentences – “so the family took him back to the hospital for assessment overnight”. “He’s now recovering at home with several scheduled visits to the hospital for further tests,” Mr Scholl said. Joe has since expressed his anger that Tweed Valley Way is “littered with potholes and poor drainage”.

RICHMOND VOTES 2019 Q&A with candidates HOUSING AFFORDABILITY and rental stress are hot topics in The Weekly this edition. With this in mind, The Weekly asked candidates if they believe Australia is facing a housing crisis for both home buyers and renters. We also asked how they planned on addressing the rising issue of housing affordability and rental stress across the electorate specifically? H a m i s h Mitchell said Au s t r a l i a i s in danger of a “national epidemic surrounding h o u s i n g a ffo r d ab i l i t y Hamish Mitchell, and housing United Australia shortages”. Party “I believe the solution lies at a region by region level, ensuring state and local governments work with their communities, commencing a 20-year program of structured and sustainable growth through robust planning and development infrastructure works,” he said. “With the population of the Richmond Electorate predicted to increase by a third by 2036, with the Tweed and other areas like Byron Bay, Ballina and Murwillumbah already suffering a shortage of housing, the population increase is directly associated with the cost of living and housing prices being inflated in South East Queensland, Sydney and Melbourne, forcing people to seek regional alternatives.

“Creating jobs through housing development will ensure supply and build the local economy, encouraging families and future sea change retirees to the area. “On a national level, the proportion of older people in our population is growing, and this trend is therefore changing our demographic, yet the housing stock is not matching these requirements, with most new homes having between three and five bedrooms. “The housing supply problems also stem from the increasing number of properties used for second homes and holiday homes. “There is pressure on rental markets with affordability problems due to very low incomes and locals being overlooked for home purchase. “External purchasers (foreign investors) are better funded for house buying in our region than our locals and this needs to change via government programs to increase the affordable housing supply of our growing region.” Michael Lyon said “absolutely we are facing a crisis”. “Australia is the third least affordable housing market in the world,” he said. Michael Lyon, The “ T h e r e a r e more than Greens one million households in rental stress, 97 per cent of rentals are too expensive for minimum wage earners and the ratio

of house prices to incomes continues to trend upwards. “This region has not seen the softening of house prices of the cities. “In coastal areas of Richmond, holiday lets are worsening the problem by reducing the stock of long-term lets and increasing prices. “We believe that everyone deserves to have a home and the increased commodification of housing has left many people behind. We want to build 500,000 rent-controlled public homes across the country, with many of those in Richmond. “We want to give renters real rights, ending no-fault evictions, longer leases and end unfair rent increases. “We will also provide $30million to tenancy advocates to help tenants defend their rights. “We would also grandfather and phase out tax breaks like negative gearing and the capital gains tax discount as it is unfair that it is easier and cheaper for an investor buying their fifth house than for a first-time buyer.” Matthew Fraser said a “proactive approach from all levels of government is required to increase standard and affordable housing stock in our region”. Matthew Fraser, “A recent article The Nationals in the Financial Review reported that the Richmond electorate has the

third highest rate of rental distress in Australia,” he said. “Labor’s proposed poorly crafted Housing Tax policy will see home rents increase as rental stock decreases. “Tragically, this will force more people into homelessness as people fail to keep up with the rental price squeeze. “Seniors will be the worst hit as they also deal with the effects of Labor’s Retiree Tax which will hurt 8,126 seniors and pensioners from Tweed Heads to Ballina - some will lose as much as 30 per cent of their yearly income. “As seniors enter transition phase to Aged Care Residence, their buying power will also be reduced as their home value is slashed - some economists predict by 10 per cent. “Labor has no plan to assist the housing market except tax you more of your money and increase you cost of living. “I am opposing all of Labor’s Housing Taxes and the Coalition is not introducing any housing taxes or retiree taxes.” Justine Elliot M P s a i d “Au s t r a l i a i s in the midst of a housing affordability and hom e l e s s ne s s crisis”. “Rates of home ownership have Justine Elliot MP, p l u m m e t e d to historic Labor Party l o w s, r e c o r d numbers of Australian families are

experiencing rental and mortgage stress, and many of the most vulnerable in our communities are atrisk or experiencing homelessness,” she said. “Housing affordability and increasing homelessness are significant social and economic challenges that must be addressed. “This is why a Shorten Labor Government will reform negative gearing so that deductions can only be claimed on newly built homes, which will increase new housing supply and support jobs, and build 250,000 new affordable rental homes over the next decade in partnership with the community housing sector for Australians on low and moderate incomes. “Labor will support affordable housing for renters by offering 15year subsidies - $8,500 per year - to investors who build new houses conditional on them being rented at 20 per cent below market rent. “Bill Shorten and Labor will improve fairness and reduce inequality by reforming negative gearing and capital gains tax concessions, invest $6.6 billion over a decade in 250,000 new affordable rental homes, and develop a national plan to address homelessness. “ O n ly a S h o r t e n L ab o r G ove r n m e n t w i l l ap p o i n t a Commonwealth Housing Minister and ensure that the issue of affordable housing for all Australians is front and centre of our national political agenda.”

Distraught couple appeal for help after trailer theft Police chase from Casino ends in Murwillumbah By Jo Kennett A GOLD Coast couple are appealing to Tweed Coast locals for help in locating a trailer stolen near Pottsville filled with roller skates, the only assets they had left after a run of terrible luck. Michael Lorberg told The Weekly the couple were on their way from Tamworth to Kirra when two tyres blew, forcing them to leave the trailer beside the M1 while they went to get a new tyre. When they came back the trailer, which they had borrowed from a friend, was stolen. “It was between Friday night and Saturday morning on April 27 - there were about $12,000 worth of skates in the trailer,” Mr Lorberg said. “We reported it to police and posted online and been to all the towing yards and the NRMA and driven everywhere looking for it. “There is a drag mark in the bitumen and we followed that to Kingscliff - it went to the community Health Centre in Turnock Street and then it stopped. “It may or may not have been from our trailer, but it was easy to follow - so if they did take it to Kingscliff, they changed the tyre there we assume.” Mr Lorberg said the tailgate was drilled shut and so the thieves wouldn’t have any idea what was inside. The skates are from a skating rink the couple started in Tamworth out of a leased shed in 2014. “I had cancer in 2006 but it came back in 2015 and we lost the business - you need someone to care for you and while that’s happening no one is running the business. “The only asset we had left was a whole bunch of skates, so we negotiated a deal with the Tallebudgera Leisure Centre to run indoor skating there.” “It’s been a pretty rough few years and losing this was pretty bad because we were in debt up to our eyeballs.

“We thought maybe if we put these roller skates to work for us it might help to service the debt.” The couple travelled back to Tamworth to pick up the skates but on the journey home more bad luck struck. “We blew a tyre near the Ocean Shores turn off heading north.” Mr Lorberg said. “We drove to Kirra to get a spare tyre and then went back and put it on, drove it to just before the Pottsville turnoff on the M1 and it got another flat. “By then it was late, so we left it there and returned the next morning at 7am and it was gone. “Not only did we lose all the skates we also lost the trailer which we had to borrow from someone, so we owe them a trailer and have no skates.” Mr Lorberg has been in remission from cancer since 2017 and had hoped his luck had turned, but this had been another big blow to the couple. “We’d like to get them back, even if they can just contact us and say we’re here, we won’t ask any questions, we will just come and pick them up,” he said. The trailer is a standard box trailer painted flat black with corrugated iron sides. The rest is ply board and painted white with Qld registration plates AV0 567. If anyone has any information, please contact Mr Lorberg on 0450 082 037.

The stolen trailer with the ﬂat tyre

By Jonathon Howard TWEED VALLEY residents awoke to the sounds of a dramatic police chase through Kunghur, Uki and Murwillumbah in the early hours of Tuesday, May 7. The chase started in Casino after Casino Police attempted to stop a Toyota Corolla for a random breath test. The driver failed to stop and police pursued the car for a short while, but the chase was terminated due to the dangerous driving of the Corolla. Police later spotted the Corolla travelling east on the Bruxner Highway at Parrots Nest and recommenced the pursuit at South Lismore. “Police followed the vehicle and the pursuit recommenced at South Lismore and continued through Tuncester, Boggumbil, Nimbin and Mount Burrell,” police said. “At various times it will be alleged the Corolla was driven on the incorrect side of the road.” The pursuit continued through Kunghur and Uki before road spikes were successfully deployed by police.

The Corolla made its way to a service station in Buchanan Street in Murwillumbah where police arrested the driver. Officers said as they were arresting the driver, a struggle ensued, and they were forced to use pepper spray to subdue and remove the man from the vehicle. “During the arrest the accused suffered a cut to the forehead,” police said. The 33-year-old man was expected to front court on Tuesday, May 7. Inquiries revealed the Corolla had been stolen from Queensland earlier this month. The 33-year-old man was arrested and charged with police pursuit not stop (drive dangerously).

Two teenagers go berserk at Bogangar residents

By Jonathon Howard TWEED POLICE have tracked down and arrested two 18-year-old men after they allegedly yelled abuse and threatened residents inside their homes. Police said two unknown men walked to the front door of a home on Maple Street at Bogangar and allegedly yelled abuse and threatening the occupants of the home around 9am on Saturday, May 4. “One of the men was allegedly armed with a metal pole, while the other was armed with a glass bottle,” police said. “They fled the scene on foot and no one was physically injured during the incident.

“The men then entered the unlocked front door of a home on Oleander Avenue, Bogangar. “Once inside the home they allegedly demanded money and threatened the occupants, before fleeing the scene on foot. “They did not take anything from the home and no one was physically injured during the incident. “Police have been told one of the men allegedly damaged a neighbour’s car with a glass bottle, causing panel and paint damage to the vehicle.” Following inquiries, police arrested two men, both aged 18 nearby. They were taken to Tweed Heads Police Station where they were charged.

Think about your senate vote, says Jim Tait

Sweet Talk with Robert Hawken

Independents for Climate Action Now launch recently. Inset is Jim Tait

Concern for his children’s future and the natural world are the primary motivations for his desire to address climate change politically and Mr Tait is also concerned that the major parties are dragging their feet. “Australia can build a renewable energy superpowered economy including a reinvigorated manufacturing sector and export clean energy and green tech to the world,” he said. “We’re not interested in splitting The Greens vote, and believe we offer an option for climate concerned voters unwilling to support existing parties. “We provide a real choice to address climate change and make the change that’s desperately needed now.” Mr Tait said science, pragmatism and working across the political spectrum is

key to delivering effective climate policy outcomes. “Please give us your senate vote on Saturday, May 18, to deliver a viable future for our kids,” he said. Mr Tait highlighted his six tiers of an emergency based policy platform for addressing climate change including 100 per cent renewable energy transition, managed phase out of the fossil fuel industry, natural resource and ecosystem management for carbon sequestration, investment in science and technology to implement carbon drawdown, creating a Beyond Zero emissions society and planned adaptation for unavoidable climate impacts. To find out more about Mr Tait and the ICAN party phone: 0418 982 426 or learn more at i-c-a-n.com.au

THIS LAST month has seen good rainfall in many parts of the Northern Rivers and elsewhere. This rain, combined with warm humid days has been very beneficial for the Condong cane and soybean crops. The last few days of fine weather has been welcome, allowing fields to dry out in time for the soybean harvest which will soon get underway. There are some excellent fields of soybean this year despite the very dry conditions in the summer months. There is potentially a reasonable cane tonnage this coming season, but this depends on the growing conditions during May and into June. Of more concern to growers will be the CCS (sugar content) of the one-year-old cane. Condong’s cane crop usually consists of over 60 per cent one-year-old cane with the remainder being two- year old. The one-year-old cane this year appears to be very green and immature and will take some time to ripen. This presents a challenge for growers at harvest time. Fields will need to be assessed carefully before harvesting as different cane varieties mature (ie reach peak CCS) at various times of the harvest period, during June to December. The tentative start date for Condong’s next crushing season is June 17, weather permitting. Condong Mill will produce a considerable amount of ‘Nucane’ – low GI sugar, this year as its acceptance and popularity in the market place grows. Sugar Research Australia (SRA) is continually developing new cane varieties, many of which are tested in on-farm plantings and harvesting trials. Such things as tonnes of sugar per hectare and the ability to withstand environmental factors such as flooding, frost, drought, resistance to various diseases and millability are sought by the industry. It can take several years before a cane variety becomes fully commercially grown cane. Looking forward to continuing good weather. Best wishes to all The Weekly readers. Bye for now, Rob Hawken

By Jonathon Howard WHILE MOST voters are concentrating on the major and minor parties at the up-coming federal election, a recently formed climate action party known as Independents for Climate Action Now (ICAN) is calling on Richmond residents to give them their vote in the senate. Senate candidate and Northern Rivers local Jim Tait is the founder of ICAN and an environmental scientist who specialises in freshwater ecosystems. He’s passionate about creating a viable and sustainable environment now and into the future, something he says cannot be achieved under the current major party models. During his 32-year career, Mr Tait has worked for research organisations and in his own consultancy business to industry, government and community. His ability to work across sectors is something he wants to bring to politics along with his wealth of climate knowledge. Speaking with The Weekly, Mr Tait said he launched ICAN to offer voters a “real choice on addressing climate change now”. A family man with two teenage children, Mr Tait said he believes climate change is the single biggest concern for the future of Australia and its future generations. “As the climate science has got more and more compelling, I was at first amazed and then seriously worried by the denial of the science and lack of effective action,” he said. “While our youth are becoming increasingly alarmed and activated for their future, it’s up to us as responsible adults to step up and take political action.”

Could the iconic Crams Farm be used as future camping and activities site?

A bold idea to convert Crams Farm into a recreational and camping site

horse trail rides, jogging, mountain biking, walking trails and orienteering. “To provide a picturesque nature reserve that can facilitate camping, glamping, cabins and paid over night facilities for caravans and motor homes, shared over hectares of Tweed’s gorgeous environment,” he said. “All of these great opportunities exist and individuals or groups could express their approval or disapproval through letters to The Weekly, please share your thoughts or ideas and interest in this idea of Tweed’s Clarrie Hall Dam being shared as an Environmental Holiday Park and make the park a reality.”

The Weekly queried several other councillors in regards to the idea including Deputy Mayor Cr Chris Cherry, who said the councillors need support from Council staff first. “I love spending time out at Crams Farm and think it is a great place to bring the kids and visitors,” she said. “I know the staff have concerns regarding increasing activity here due to it being located on Clarrie Hall Dam, our water supply. “We need to ensure the security of our water first and foremost. “Our program of buying up land that will be impacted by the increasing of Clarrie Hall Dam has included fencing off and removing

stock from these lands in order to protect the water quality of the dam. “If we have a camping ground there, with showers and amenities we would obviously need to deal with the wastewater to a much larger extent than what is currently required, so I would like to see staff’s assessment of that and how it could be managed, if this idea is pursued.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Would you like to see a Crams Farm opened to camping and sporting clubs for greater utilisation?

IN A bid to float new and exciting tourism ideas and allow the Tweed Valley to capture a growing tourism market, Tweed Shire Councillor Pryce Allsop has raised the idea of using the iconic Crams Farm as a camping and sporting recreational site and he’s seeking community feedback. While only in the early stages of the idea, Cr Allsop said he has already received positive feedback from within the business community, but he’s keen to continue seeking feedback from locals before posing the idea to fellow councillors via a motion. “Over many years of living in the Tweed I have been listening and been part of so many conversations about people’s sporting groups, needs and facilities,” he said. “Others discuss the many missed opportunities in our region. “Community groups, clubs and organisations needing facilities or sites for their club or groups to evolve or simply to exist. “Crams Farm offers enormous potential and creating a holiday park here could be the answer to many groups needs. “I believe that Crams Farm is a site worthy of some serious conversation.” Cr Allsop said consideration and exploration of the Crams Farm site needs detailed investigating but he believes a Tweed Holiday Park model could be suitable.

“Tweed is known for its environment and beauty and we should find ways to share our Tweed in sensible and in sustainable ways,” he said. “Many community groups would be interested in seeing a Tweed Holiday Park that facilitates something with a real difference.” Cr Allsop said when canvasing Crams Farm becoming a holiday park as a hypothetical idea, “there are many whom see enormous potential”. “A lazy asset like the Clarrie Hall Dam could easily become a serious draw card for tourists and locals alike,” he said. “Tweeds tourists and locals are searching for recreational opportunities including sporting groups and enthusiasts who want to find new opportunities for their groups. “Recently Tweed Shire Council has made acquisitions of large parcels of land necessary for the raising of the Clarrie Hall Dam. “There now could be great opportunities to amalgamate the numerous athletic groups and nature appreciative groups to provide common facilities and amenities. “The creation of a Grand Environmental Holiday Park that promotes and enjoys sports but also the Tweed relaxed nature.” Cr Allsop listed a range of activities which he believes could be feasible including archery, canoeing, a high ropes course,

Students learn about healthy relationships

By Megan Albany STUDENTS AT Murwillumbah High School are set to learn all about respectful relationships in a nationally accredited program called Love Bites Respectful Relationships Education. The pilot program is being run by Wollumbin Family Support Inc as part of the organisation’s focus on domestic violence prevention. “We will be running classes for students from the ages of 11 through to 17 as some of these students have been having issues with jealousy and cyber bullying,” Wollumbin Family Support board member Kym McMillan said. The program will run weekly during all of term two and will work with students throughout various stages of their schooling. “One of our main areas of focus is the prevention of domestic violence and so we believe that teaching children about healthy, respectful relationship skills fits into that focus.” Wollumbin Family Support Inc formed after the closure of the Tweed Valley Women’s Service in 2016 and has a focus on creating safer communities through providing domestic violence prevention strategies as well as options for recovery from domestic violence. “We have one woman dying each week in Australia from domestic violence and one in three that’s living in fear or being injured,” Ms McMillan said.

“Whenever we talk about domestic violence, people also ask us about domestic violence against men and hopefully one day we will be able to provide services for men as well. “Unfortunately a large part of male domestic violence goes unreported because of the stigma around male victims as does a large part of women’s domestic violence. “A lot of people both men and women are living in domestic violence silently.” Ms McMillan said when it comes to domestic violence prevention that it is vital to address the younger generation in order to break the cycle of violence. “Domestic violence can be an intergenerational problem and if you grow up in a situation like that you may think it is normal. “We want to challenge those beliefs at a young age so young women realise they don’t have to live like that and so our young men realise that good men don’t behave like that and for them both to learn new ways of being in a relationship.” Ms McMillan said statistically many of the children in the program could currently be living in a domestic violence situation. The Love Bites workshop aims to resource students who may be in this situation to know where they can reach out to for assistance. If you or anyone you know is experiencing domestic violence call the domestic violence line on:1800 656 463 or visit www. wollumbinfamilysupport.org.au. If you or someone you know is in immediate danger call the police on triple zero (000).

The Love Bites team are ready to talk healthy relationships with local students

"Help is available after escaping domestic violence," says The Power to Change, who is run by qualiﬁed facilitators including Michelle Perry and Kyra Worden

Reach out for help after domestic violence

By Jonathon Howard AN INNOVATIVE new program designed to support women after escaping domestic violence is launching in Murwillumbah this month and is urging locals to utilise its services. The program, known as The Power to Change, is a group focusing on support and recovery for survivors of domestic violence and is run by Wollumbin Family Support Inc. The Power to Change program addresses the complex issues and emotions felt after experiencing an abusive relationship such as fear, shame, anger, loss of self-esteem and the effects on family relationships. The service is free, including child care and refreshments, and the meeting location is central to Murwillumbah. The group will have a maximum of 12 women per program and runs for 14 weeks. At present, two programs are scheduled from May to December, however, if funding can be achieved, Wollumbin Family Support envisions the program to be ongoing. The Power to Change is run by qualified facilitators including Michelle Perry and Kyra Worden and the hope is to provide support to women who are isolated. “Usually a woman feels that life will ultimately get better immediately once they are away from their abuser, however it is quickly realised that a new set of challenges

arise with feelings of isolation and shame, mental health issues and financial stress being all encompassing,” Ms Perry said. “The Power to Change aims to help women through this time to show them they are not alone, can reclaim their lives and prevent falling into the same relationship patterns.” Ms Worden said The Power to Change program aims to assist recovery by providing reconnection and support through interaction with other survivors and professional support from qualified facilitators. The course has had outstanding results in other communities with participants experiencing lasting benefits. One such domestic violence survivor said the group enabled them to let go of the past and spot abusive behaviour. “I can let go more easily because I realise that not everything that goes wrong is my fault. I value myself more and I am better able to spot abusive behaviour,” a domestic violence survivor, whose name was withheld, said on benefits of the support group. The group will also be a part of the Kinship Festival, which provides an avenue for residents to meet face-to-face with the facilitators. To apply for the group please email: wollumbinfsi@gmail.com or phone 0468 445 820. Or visit the Wollumbin Family Support website: www.wollumbinfamilysupport.org.au

By Jo Kennett DRIVERS ARE being asked to slow down on Clothiers Creek Road west of Bogangar after the death of another koala on the road on Friday, May 3, Commuters came across the dead koala in the early hours of the morning in an area signposted as a koala zone where the speed is limited to between 50 and 70 km per hour in different sections. It is the third koala that has died in the Tweed after being hit by vehicles in recent months, with another one run over and killed on the same road in December and a third koala killed around that time. Team Koala Tweed president Jenny Hayes said she was devastated. “It’s very sad, I just don’t understand why people can’t follow the rules - they need speed cameras there,” Ms Hayes said. “There had already been stories about slowing down on Clothiers Creek Road recently. “I see cars travelling through there without giving any thought to the koalas there.” Ms Hayes said the Tweed Coast koala population was at the tipping point. “It’s not as if we can afford to lose any koalas,” she said. “They are on the point of extinction. “We are constantly putting it out there for drivers to slow down and it’s incomprehensible why people can’t do that - it only takes an extra 30 seconds to follow the speed limit through the koala zone.” Ms Hayes said there had been a lot of research into what could be done about the black spot. “There has been studies done on what to do there, on having fences, but then you have the problem of trees being logged to have that done and it stops koalas going through their corridors,” she said. “Overpasses are very costly. I believe the solution is having speed cameras. “There’s been enough studies to know where koalas cross, it’s fairly predictable and the best solution.” Ms Hayes said it would have to be a state government initiative. She said Geoff Provest was one politician who had thrown his weight behind the cause and she hoped he could help put the case forward for speed cameras in the area.

“Geoff has been very sympathetic and got us grants and got the extra 99 acres at Pottsville so he is one politician who actually cares and has done an amazing job,” Ms Hayes said. “The council has been amazing as well doing costings and looking at solutions. “There has to be some other solution to this devastating situation in Clothiers Creek. I’m just appalled that drivers, who must know by now this is one of the deadliest spots for koalas are still taking no notice. I can’t even comprehend that.” The koala zone signage was put up in 2015 by Tweed Shire Council in what was considered one of the Tweed’s worst black spots for koala deaths. After the deaths in December Tweed Shire Council Senior Program Leader of Biodiversity Scott Hetherington told The Weekly the Tweed-Brunswick area has one of the three koala populations identified as endangered in NSW. “Koalas as a whole are all considered vulnerable but what’s different here is that the coastal population is isolated by the Tweed and Brunswick Rivers and the highway,” Mr Hetherington said. “Within that area they face a whole range of threats such as cars, disease, bushfires and habitat fragmentation from past habitat loss for cane farming and urban area development. “Before the highway was built it was used by about 1200 vehicles a day but since the highway interchange has been installed and the population has grown there are more than 2500 vehicles a day so it’s nearly doubled.” The Tweed Valley Weekly has contacted Mr Provest about having speed cameras installed in the koala zone.

THE FINAL beachside property sites at the Casuarina Beach development are hitting the market this month and with only 21 homesites available are expected to sell within days. The sites, which range up to 524-squaremetres and start from $495,000 as part of Clarence Property’s final stage of Casuarina Beach, with construction expected to commence this month. Clarence Property managing director Peter Fahey said the developer’s previous release of 47 beachside homesites at Casuarina sold out within 48 hours. “These lots are the only coastal homesites available in a new community between

Kingscliff and Cabarita, so they will sell quickly,” he said. “They represent excellent value considering the limited land available in the Tweed Coast corridor and are well priced compared to similar lots on the Gold Coast. “There is potential for subdivision or dual occupancy on lots larger than 450sqm, which is an additional incentive for both owner occupiers and investors. “With civil works about to commence, purchasers in this stage could expect to start building their new home by mid next year.” To secure a lot in the final land release at Casuarina Beach, visit casuarinabeach.com. au or contact Nick Witheriff at LJHooker Kingscliff on 0405 618 477 or Bruce Williams at Ray Real Estate on 0414 996 522.

Wayne Schulz celebrating five decades of stellar career

By Jonathon Howard MCGUINESS FUNERALS General Manager Wayne Schulz is celebrating 50 years in the industry this month and has provided The Weekly readers with a snapshot of life in one of the world’s most fulfilling careers. While farewelling a friend or family member can be an extremely difficult undertaking, Mr Schulz has made it his lifelong ambition to assist families in this phase of life. Mr Schulz has experienced every facet of the funeral business and has a deep passion for ensuring his clients’ needs are met and exceeded in the process of farewelling loved ones. “As the days roll by in what seems an ever-increasing speed and I approach a time where I may consider retirement, not that this is in the foreseeable future, I am proud to say I have entered my 50th year working within the boundaries of one profession, the funeral profession,” he said. The Weekly recently caught up with Mr Schulz to turn back the clock on his stellar career and find out how he developed a passion for the funeral business. “Moving from school into one aspect of the funeral profession was an easy decision for me, my father worked in a factory manufacturing coffins and caskets,” he said. “As a child, wherever dad went, I went, the factory was a familiar place to me from the age of eight as most Saturday’s were spent there with dad.

“All I ever wanted was to work beside dad as a wood machinist.” Mr Schulz’s apprenticeship started at HA Schulz Pty Ltd. “Eighteen months into my apprenticeship the business was sold to HH Webb where I remained for many years to come,” he said. “I was awarded Apprentice of the Year in my third year and a few years after completion of my first apprenticeship, I returned to college to qualify as a French polisher. “Some twenty years as a manufacturer had passed when I was offered the managers role at Mt Thompson Crematorium in Brisbane, a position I readily accepted as I saw this as an exciting opportunity for me. “Often thinking about a deeper involvement in the profession, one of assisting people at a time of need, this seemed like it was meant to be.” During this time, Mr Schulz’s father suffered a heart attack and gave up work. “So, the strong bond of the factory with dad and I working together had gone and the decision to change jobs wasn’t difficult,” he said. “I was unsure if I had the essential personal skills required to assist people at a time of loss, but it was important for me to learn more about my inner self and be available when others needed a hand. “It was during my time at the crematorium that Rotary was introduced to me and became an extremely important part of my life.” During the next five and a half years, Mr Schulz’s eyes were opened to the many variances in people’s culture, religion, needs, wants and

most importantly the way people grieve, “there is no blanket, we are all so different”. “I was aware the families assisted at Mt Thompson Crematorium had to some degree, come to terms with the loss of a loved one, the funeral had been held and some time had passed before coming to the crematorium to finalise arrangements. “I honestly enjoyed my time at the crematorium, believing this was my career change and I would retire there, however, life is unpredictable, and a change of ownership saw the challenge of managing Mt Thompson Crematorium slowly waver.” Mr Schulz said during a Christmas function he bumped into a couple of old friends, David and Helen A s h t o n wh o ow n e d A s h t o n Manufacturing, a well renowned, respected manufacturer of highquality coffins and caskets, and a former opposition of his.

“They were aware of the ownership change and questioned if I would ever consider returning to manufacturing, as their business was expanding and they were looking for a production manager and believed I had the skills they required,” he said. “Their offer was accepted, and almost twenty exceptional years were spent there, the last four as general manager. “Early retirement entered my thoughts and left the workforce believing I was ready for it, three months later I’m climbing walls, even my hobbies weren’t enough to fill in the days. “ H av i n g b e e n ap p ro a c h e d several times during this period with an offer to become the Manager of McGuiness Funerals, Murwillumbah and Billinudgel ( i n c o r p o rat i n g Wh i t e D ove Funerals), I had a decision to make. “Accepting the position has been enlightening, and the best decision I’ve made during my working career.

“In addition, it has allowed me to once again be involved with Rotary.” M r S c h u l z s a i d eve r y ro l e throughout his career has given him personal rewards and satisfaction. “But none have come close to my role as a manager and funeral provider at McGuiness Funerals, so much so that retirement is now a very distant thought,” he said. “The role of funeral provider is vast, much too broad to go into here. “But at the end of each day you are humbled, proud of who you are and what you represent, satisfied in knowing you have been there for others when they most needed you and so grateful for the amazing people within the funeral profession with whom you share the responsibilities given to us.” To congratulate Wayne on his stellar career visit McGuiness Funerals in Murwillumbah at 19 Wollumbin St, Murwillumbah, or phone: (02) 6672 2144.

GREAT WEEKEND of footy again. Big highlight for me this week was the performance of Latrell Mitchell. It was the performance of the year and best individual game I’ve seen in a long long time. The rumours are still circulating about a move to Souths as well as the former Origin centre from Brisbane who will play reserve grade this week for the Broncos. They were ordinary against Souths and there are some problems with the powerhouse club. I was thrilled to see Tom Dearden debut for the club. Tom is a wonderful young man who works super hard on his game with a real level head, he will have a long career in the NRL. The toughest result of the weekend was a severely depleted Sharks team getting the chocolates against a star studded Melbourne. The Storm have been a bit off and as much was admitted by the great Bellamy with some changes to be made. The Eagles continue to win and Dessie might have to pull the boots back on soon if they lose any more players. Parramatta are making Bankwest a fortress and turned in a quality second half to win comfortably. Gutherson earned his contract with a few sublime touches but the highlight was Brad Arthur sending a message to ‘Fergo’ saying ‘Win us this game’. Fergo responded with a great try and a magnificent backflip, this shows a close coach player relationship and understanding of each other. What a super concept the Magic Round this weekend in Brisbane. All clubs and all games in Brisbane over four days. I can see this really taking off and a great opportunity going forward to take the concept around the country going forward to places like Perth, Melbourne even Darwin.

Will he or won’t he? The SOS has gone out to Cameron Smith for Origin and was only emphasised this week with McCullough going down and DCE no certainty. I personally think he won’t play but I’ve been wrong before. Some great footy locally on the weekend with the defending premiers rolling the Mustangs 18-10 with the Raiders defending stoutly for long periods and the Stangs will be looking to bounce back this week at home against Casino. Congratulations to Zac Johnson of Murwillumbah who was selected in the Northern CHS team to trial for the NSW team in a few weeks and Liam Townsend (Cudgen) who was added to the Northern Country Catholic team for the CCC trials in a few weeks at St Marys. Well done also to the Tweed Seagulls women’s team for their victory against Burleigh the weekend before last, a great result for the Gulls and topped off by Tweed winning the state wide u18’s Mal Meninga cup on the weekend against Wynnum. A super result and good luck lads in the national final against Illawarra this week. See you at the Footy Quinny

THE MURWILLUMBAH Philharmonic Choir is about to embark on a tour to Norfolk Island this month as the iconic local choir reflects on 40 years of singing excellence. T h e c h o i r w i l l u n d e r t a ke s eve r a l performances whilst on tour with two shows taking place in the historic St Barnabas and All Saints Churches under the guidance and baton of Musical Director Heather Martin OAM and Accompanist Beth Brooks. Upon returning to the mainland, the Choir will repeat their performance of Treasured Shores at All Saints Anglican Church in Murwillumbah on Sunday, May 19, from 2pm. This year also marks the 40th birthday for the Murwillumbah Philharmonic Choir which has a rich history in the Tweed Shire. “Murwillumbah Philharmonic Choir first formed in 1923 but was closed during World War II,” a statement from the choir said. “The choir returned in the 1950s when it added theatre performances to the choral works. “The second choir closed during the 1960s, but as a result of a Murwillumbah High School Reunion, the choir reformed in 1979 and has been going strong ever since.”

The choir undertake rehearsals every week except for school holidays. “The choir is a serious choir, intent on enjoying singing, developing choral skills and discovering good and challenging repertoire,” the statement read. “The ‘Phillos’ have performed at various international presentations, such as Llangollan International Choral Festival, Kathaumixw International Choral Festival, North Island and South Island of New Zealand, Carnegie Hall New York as well as at home and also on a Pacific Island cruise. “The choir’s repertoire includes serious art music such as Messiah by Handel, Peacemakers by Karl Jenkins as well as a variety of modern/popular and jazz works along with religious works, spirituals and theatre music. “The performances at Norfolk Island will include some early music such as Bach, Purcell and Faure as well as modern works such as some Beatles, Elton John and Elvis Presley. Also included are some spirituals, jazz and excerpts from the musicals Cats and Oliver.” For more information about Murwillumbah Philharmonic Choir please email: malcolmreid94@gmail.com

THE PRICE OF EVERYTHING

82369

“The title is a play on ‘Songs My Mother Taught Me’, by Czech composer Antonín Dvořák.” Ms Williams said she started her musical life at the age of three when her parents realised she had the ability to play by ear. “When I was three years old my parents took me to see the film Ryan’s Daughter and then I banged out with one or two fingers the theme song so they started me with piano lessons when I was five. “At the age of thirteen, I started singing lessons when my mother and I joined a community choir. “I’ve always had a great love of drama and musical theatre and opera provided a way for me to marry my love of singing and acting.” After spending her professional life as both a performer and teacher Ms Williams said she believes teaching can be a great way to expand your skills as a performer and vice versa. “There’s a really unfortunate saying that ‘he who can does and he who can’t teaches’, but I beg to differ,” she said. “I’m hoping that this piece will show that you can be a good teacher and a good performer as that’s part of the inspiration for my show.” Ms Williams will be joined by pianist Jed Stone, who has backed David Bowie, Tom Jones and Englebert Humperdinck and cellist and soprano Claudia Marcus who recently understudied the role of the Publican’s Wife in the premiere of the new Australian opera, Dry River Run.

Talking

Do you remember The Square, the brilliant satirical movie of last year about people so much involved in the world of contemporary art to the point of becoming alienated from reality? Are you an artist or interested in art? Will you participate or visit MAT 19? If you replied yes to any of the above questions, I have a suggestion for you: watch The Price of Everything. It is a fascinating documentary about the art market, its protagonists, its excesses, and what it means to become a star artist today. The documentary features the Who’s Who of the contemporary art world, and holds a mirror to our values and our time, where everything can be bought and sold for incredible amounts of money.

Pottsville soprano Tara Williams

MAT19 music curator Nick Clow said Ms William’s performance is part of a focus on classical and jazz at this year’s arts trail. “Classical and jazz music will be a significant element of the Murwillumbah Arts Trail this year,” Mr Clow said. Sunday, May 19, will feature classical and jazz shows running throughout the day at the Murwillumbah Civic Centre Auditorium.

In the film some argue that money is a necessary evil, because only artworks that are expensive are protected – although only for the benefit of the lucky few who own them. Unless of course they are donated to public institutions, like the wealthy collector couple in the film who donate something like $400 million of artworks to the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art. Other collectors instead try to outdo or emulate each other and buy the same artworks for their status symbol rather than intrinsic value. The documentary also question what is art? Jeff Koon, probably the most commercially successful contemporary artist, doesn’t make artworks by himself but employs a large number of people to do it, while someone like painter Larry Poons, once considered a mega artist has been almost forgotten by the market while he continues to paint huge and colorful abstract paintings in his remote studio. The sobering moral of the story is, in the words of one of the collectors interviewed: “Many people in the art world know the price of everything but the value of nothing.” Food for thought.

By Megan Albany AWARD WINNING Pottsville soprano, Tara Williams will appear in a performance which sees the singer make her debut as a writer and producer, as part of this year’s MAT19. Ms Williams, who has performed with the Sydney Philharmonia Motet Choir, the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and Opera Queensland, and teaches singing and piano at Pottsville, said it was her students that inspired to write the show, ‘Songs My Students Taught Me’. “I have taught some very colourful characters over the years and they have left a very lasting impression on me and I’ll always associate the songs I taught them with these particular students,” Ms Williams said. “There is a story to go with each of the songs and they are anecdotes from my teaching and particular incidents that left a lasting impression on me.” Ms Williams said while most of the stories in the performance are light hearted, she does occasionally delve into darker moments. “The songs are mostly musical theatre so they are for the most part quite light hearted although there are some more thought provoking songs. “It’s a very eclectic mix of everything from Rodgers and Hammerstein and Simon and Garfunkel to Evanescence.

Murwillumbah Community Centre Kinship Festival Committee member Aunty Deidre Currie said the Kinship Festival provides an opportunity for Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people to connect in a friendly, fun and creative environment. “A lot of the people that attend are nonAboriginal people and they really want to connect with our Aboriginal culture and way of life,” Aunty Currie said. “I think there is a growing interest in our beliefs as a beautiful way that could help make this country better. “At the festival a lot of people come up and want to ask questions and I think Kinship provides a doorway to connecting. “I always try to encourage people to talk, even if they feel shy, because they have a spirit too and that means if they have something to say they shouldn’t be frightened to come up and have a yarn.” Ms Currie who will also be MC-ing the event said the festival was an opportunity for families and the community to enjoy a day of meaningful connection. “It’s an opportunity to bring everyone together and to bring all our mobs together across the Bundjalung nation,” Ms Currie said.

“It’s about reminding everyone to be kind and look after each other and watch over our jarjums (children). “It’s a lovely way of connecting with country and each other and it’s drug and alcohol free.” The festival includes a community Corroboree, a welcome to country and smoking ceremony, Indigenous artisan markets, face painting, free kids nature crafts and activities, live music from OKA and The Mangrove Jack Band and free bush tucker and vegetarian lunch. Ms Currie said the festival has continued to grow since it started five years ago and that many people are now travelling from out of the area to attend. “People love it and some people travel from very far away to come and every year we get really, really good feedback about how much people have enjoyed it.” The festival is also renowned for showcasing Indigenous culture through traditional dance, song, language, weaving and a large scale sand, soil and ochre community art installation. “It is a day that’s about being together and showcasing our artists and our dancers and having a beautiful day together.” One of the most popular features of the Kinship Festival in the past has been the Elders Sharing Wisdom Workshop where Elders share their values, stories and wisdom with families from across the Tweed.

Guests are encouraged to dress in their best black and white with prizes for

the best-dressed woman (a voucher from Bon Bons hair salon) and man (a bottle of wine). In the best flapper tradition, there will be no hint of gender stereotyping in the selection of these prizes.

Tweed rental market plummets to record low By Jonathon Howard THE TWEED Shire is now devoid of accommodation for people living below the minimum wage alongside Byron and Ballina as rental availability has plummeted to an all-time low, according to the latest rental affordability snapshot by Anglicare Australia released in April. Tweed’s elderly residents are now among the most at-risk demographic of becoming homeless and according to Anglicare, if something is not done by government to address affordable housing - it could get even worse. The snapshot study also found renters in the Tweed Shire were becoming more vulnerable to rental stress and short-term holiday lets such as Airbnb, which are in turn leading to “underutilisation of large numbers of properties in many towns, particularly coastal towns”. “Areas to the north of the region (Ballina, Byron Bay and Tweed Heads) which have higher socio-economic profiles in general, are effectively devoid of accommodation to people seeking to rent unless they are on the minimum wage or higher,” the snapshot study found. “ T h e re i s n o a c c o m m o d at i o n whatsoever for families or singles on benefits in those three areas. “An additional area of concern for this particular area is AirBnB. In comparison to the 194 homes available for long-term rental across Ballina, Byron and Tweed Heads, according to Inside AirBnB,

there are 4,660 homes advertised for rent through AirBnB in this area. “Of that number, 82 per cent are whole homes and occupancy rates for those houses stands at 19 per cent on average, or 69 days a year. “Byron Bay recently qualified for a cap on short-term letting availability and it remains to be seen what impact this will have.” The snapshot report highlighted that an increasing number of people are being pushed onto couches, into sheds, or to crisis accommodation, while many others are sleeping rough. The snapshot highlighted that the 2019 findings show once more that we “don’t have enough secure, affordable rentals”. “The consequences are clear: more and more people have been pushed into rental stress and homelessness,” the report said. “For too many, paying the rent means they can’t afford to eat decent food, fill a prescription, pay for transport, or buy clothes. “And now older Australians are getting stuck in expensive and insecure rentals at a time in their life when stability is more important than ever. “As government has abandoned social housing, more of these people have been languishing on waiting lists, forced to compete for rentals in the private market. “The solution is simple but has proven to be stubbornly difficult – government must reclaim responsibility for housing.” Anglicare Australia Executive Director Kasy Chambers said that housing in Australia is “broken”.

“Our figures show that affordability is down across the board,” Ms Chambers said. “There is a huge shortage of secure, affordable rentals, that’s causing record levels of rental stress and even homelessness. “And now we’re seeing older Australians getting stuck in expensive and insecure rentals – at a time in their life when they need stability more than ever. Ms Chambers said Australia has a dire shortage of social housing. “This could include people who have recently experienced homelessness, family violence, have a disability or simply can’t get a home in the private rental market,” she said. “People on the lowest incomes are being squeezed out of the rental market. “That’s why it’s urgent that we invest in social housing. “This would be the most powerful first step to tackling the rental crisis. “Our social housing shortfall is massive. We need 300,000 new social properties across Australia. “We’re calling on all parties to commit to ending this shortfall – and ensure that everyone has a place to call home.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Have you struggled to find affordable housing across the Tweed Shire? The Weekly would like to hear from you. Please send an email with some details of your rental experience to editor@theweekly.net.au

TWEED SHIRE residents are being urged to get their flu shot with the launch of the 2019 flu campaign last week following a sharp rise in flu cases already this year. North Coast Public Health Unit director Paul Corben said there have already been more than 9,600 confirmed influenza cases in NSW, including more than 500 in Northern NSW. “One million flu vaccines have now been delivered across the state,” he said. Pregnant women, young children and the elderly will be a major focus of this year’s flu campaign. Free flu vaccines are available for pregnant women, Aboriginal people, those aged over 65, and anyone with medical conditions such as asthma, diabetes, and heart disease.

North Coast Public Health Unit said hospitalisation rates for influenza are highest in young children with recent national figures showing about 100 per 100,000 in those aged six to 23 months. Mr Corben outlined the importance of the vaccine to the community stressing that influenza can be deadly. “While we might all take flu for granted as a common winter disease, it can be deadly,” Mr Corben said. “In 2017, we had a significant flu season where more than 650 people died across the state. “We cannot afford to be complacent.” The NSW Government has invested about $130 million in the 2018-19 Immunisation Program budget, including Commonwealth and state vaccines.

Free flu vaccines for children aged from six months to under five years of age are being provided under the NSW Government’s $2.6 million program. In addition to booking a flu shot, people are reminded that to help reduce the spread of flu, sneeze into your elbow, wash your hands regularly and stay home if sick.

Caillan Baker is our top trainee this year

Caillan Baker awarded trainee of the year MURWILLUMBAH LOCAL Caillan Baker has been awarded the distinguished Trainee of the Year accolade at the 2019 HVTC Excellence Awards on Friday, May 3. Caillan attended the Awards ceremony in Newcastle, where she was recognised alongside 14 other award winners from across NSW. The 20-year-old is completing a Certificate III in Business Administration qualification with HVTC and host employer, Murwillumbah Community Health Centre (Northern NSW Local Health District), and is due to complete he studies in the coming months. Caillan said she was incredibly shocked to find out she had been chosen as the recipient of the Trainee of the Year Award, which was sponsored by the NSW Minerals Council. “It was an incredible feeling being named HVTC’s Trainee of the Year,” Caillan said. “This is my first job so I really wasn’t expecting to win, but I’m really proud of myself. “I’m planning to move to Brisbane soon so having the award and traineeship experience on my resume will be really helpful. “This traineeship has taught me many new things about NSW Health and working within the health system and I believe it is a fantastic starting point for people new to the workforce as a whole, or for anyone interested in starting a career in the health sector. “The traineeship has been a great experience and both NSW Health and HVTC have been so helpful. I’m now looking forward to progressing in my career and embarking on new challenges.” HVTC CEO Sharon Smith said the achievements of trainees like Caillan highlight the important role the VET sector plays in the upskilling of Australia’s future workforce. “The HVTC Excellence Awards recognise and celebrate the high calibre of our apprentices, trainees, students and the many host employers we partner with to deliver skills training and employment opportunities across NSW,” Smith said.

Featured Business Saunders and Sons Painting and Decorating understands how daunting it can be to choose a colour scheme and make a final decision when repainting a home or painting a new house from scratch. Questions about what to paint and what materials and colours to use, can be a real challenge at times. Kevin and his son, Nic, specialise in making the colour and material choices easy. They are happy to share their experience and expertise by consulting with the client to make a more informed, personal and ‘imaginative’ choice, providing them with a customised colour and design scheme.

Kevin has worked forty years in the building industry as a painting contractor and has been located on the NSW far north coast for over twenty years. His son, Nic served his apprenticeship with his dad and after working away in the trade in different parts of Australia and overseas, returned to the Northern Rivers three years ago when he and Kevin teamed up to grow a partnership as ‘Saunders and Sons Painting and Decorating’. The business now stretches from the Gold Coast, along the NSW Far North Coast and hinterland, down as far as Ballina. Kevin’s other son, Nathan,

Murwillumbah Vulcans on fire against Brunswick Bulldogs By Diana Vidler

THE MIGHTY Murwillumbah Vulcans AFL club returned home and were up against the Brunswick Bulldogs on Sunday May 5. The thing I love about junior footy is how quickly the kids improve from game to game. Having so many first-year players who are such willing learners is a joy to see. Our Under 8s had a new Irish Gaelic footy recruit Joey. He looked as though he had played the game for years. He just has it. Grayson continues to shine, while Alec’s marking is a sight to see. Tully and Poppy both showed great defensive skills to keep the Bulldogs at bay. The Workwear Hub u10s clicked into gear. Brunswick had more players, but after being towelled up for 3/4s refused to even up numbers. It didn’t matter anyway, as our group kept the pressure on all the way. We don’t score in the

u/10s, so let’s just say they had the better of the game. Well done to Banjo, Benno, the two Lachy’s, Ollie, Sonny, Loz, Kruze, James and Chloe. The Murwillumbah Dental u/12s impressed with a strong win. Well done to the boys that pulled on the Dogs jumper and smashed their teammates. Thanks to the u/10s that played up and had terrific games. Sam was everywhere, Connor kicked some great goals, Finlay was strong wherever he played and Benno backing up was probably best on ground. Banjo was let of the leash and killed it while Taylor had his best game of the year. Ezra, backing up from the girls’ game, won the ruck contests once again. Our IGA u/13 girls continue to impress. They another good win and their confidence is growing with every game.

Wren was outstanding in the middle, well supported by Ruby, Asha repelled the Bulldogs attack and gave us run and carry out of defence. Rachael and Katie, playing their first games, were solid in everything they did, while Lucy and Ezra chased and tackled with gusto. Hannah is showing her sporting prowess, while Billi went that hard at it she ended up with a blood nose. Elisha was again a threat up forward while Ebony and Charlotte tackled any bulldog player that came near them to keep the game going our way. Keep up the hard work at training girls, it’s paying off on the field. Our Murwillumbah Services Club u/14 boys had a bye this week. This weekend sees our 8s 10s and 12s in Lismore, while the 13s girls are at Tweed against the Tigers. The 14s boys are up against the Tigers under lights on Friday night.

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free. I’m following the path God has laid, you see. I took His hand when I heard His call. I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way, I found the peace at the close of day.

I’m Free If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joys. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, yes, these things I too will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life’s been full, I savored much, Good friends, good times,

Holding Shotwith Judy Tuckey all players performing extremely well. Tweed Byron players Phil Bennett, Terry Lee, Steve Massey, Bulla Burton, Maurie Penfold and Reserve Ken Coyte were in the mix of this top quality squad. Formatted on three games against Zone 11, the lads won their first game 52-41 with two rink wins and a draw. Game 2 produced a 1 rink win with the other 2 rinks only going down by a minimal number of shots to give Zone 11 a 45-41 win in that round. Whilst losing two rinks again in game 3, Phil Bennett skipped his team to a solid victory that bridged the gap, plus shots left over, to seal a 59-49 overall win for the side. A grand effort from

BURRINGBAR’S GRADE 5 Pennant Side delivered a stellar performance as they traversed the six games on the agenda in this year’s pennant season as the results on the board clearly indicated. Winning all rounds with overall points on each outing, the side only conceded one rink on three occasions to score a total of 57 points out of a possible 60. Congratulations Burringbar and good luck at the Zone play-offs. Zone One’s Senior Inter Zone side has just returned from a weekend of successful trial games at Park Beach in the Black Paddle competition with

the whole side. Best wishes for every success at the State Championships at Club Charlestown next week. Cudgen Leagues’ Major Singles final between Martin Bayard and Les Browning resulted in a marathon 35 ends being played. Browning opened the card and held a reasonable lead for the first 20 ends. Finding his rhythm, Bayard then slowly reeled Browning in, levelled the score at 22-22 and was in front 27-23 when old Huey arrived to accompany the players. However, not perturbed by the wet conditions, play continued with Browning firing up to take control 3 ends later, hold on and close the game 4 shots up. Great game guys. See you on the Greens. Good bowling everyone.

Casuarina Barbarians leading competition after victory over Lennox Head THE CASUARINA Beach Barbarians took on last year’s grand finalist Lennox Head in a top of the table clash and came out with the victory on Saturday, May 4, at Casuarina. Both Lennox Head and Casuarina went into the round 5 game undefeated. Lennox scored in the 14th minute to take an early seven-point lead. Casuarina hit back with two tries and went into the break leading 10 - 7. The second half saw a very dominant display by the Barbarians. The Casuarina team through their dominant forward pack were able to continually push forward with Mitch Planten leading the way with some very powerful running.

Casuarina jumped away to a 22-12 lead only to see a very determined Lennox Head claw their way back to 22-19 which set the scene for an exciting finish. The Casuarina backs kicked and chased very well constantly putting pressure on the opposition and were able to secure dominant field position. The Casuarina team rallied and were able to put together 14 consecutive phases of play which led to a final try to Josh Harman and the final score of 29 - 19. Casuarina President Brian Laybutt said the team was “really building momentum and confidence is high”. “Players are growing in confidence and self-belief,” Laybutt said. “There is a great deal of positivity within the club in general. The Under 15 girls

played their first 7s games on Friday night and won both games. “Saturday afternoon rugby has a great family feel. There is a swell of enthusiasm and the club is continuing grow.” Casuarina remain undefeated after five rounds and this week take on one of the real powerhouse clubs of the competition - Ballina. 1st grade will kick off at 3.15p.m, 2nd grade 1.50pm at the Casuarina Rugby fields. Come along and support local rugby.

THE GOLD Coast Pro hits Burleigh Point today after two days of pro Junior action and with a top class field, this 1500 World Qualifying Series event is looking like marginal conditions on the world famous basalt bolder lined point. Many of the youngsters in the pro junior will be also surfing in the Gold Coast Pro, including Micah Margieson, Marlon Harrison, Jagger Bartholomew, Blake Nekka, and many other local juniors. There are some top surfers in the draw, including North Stradbroke’s Ethan Ewing, local lad Liam O’Brien, former winner and Indonesian number one Oney Anwar. Former WCT surfer Stuart Kennedy is also in the mix, Mitch Parkinson, Nick Vasicek, and former winners Mitch Crews and Nicolas Squiers will also be looking to gain a second win. In the women’s division, it is a really red hot field, Kobie Enright will be defending her title won last year, but will face plenty of challenges from surfers like Isabella Nichols, Phillipa Anderson, Piper Harrison, Zahli Kelly, and former WCT surfer Dimity Stoyle. Previous winners of the Gold Coast Open, presented by Flight Centre (formerly Burleigh Pro), include names like Taj Burrow, Julian Wilson, Dimity Stoyle, Owen Wright, Kobie Enright, Mitch Crews and Isabella Nichols. The

event is known for attracting surfers from all corners of the globe including Indonesia, North America, France, Brazil and Japan. There is a southerly change due through on Friday night, with the swell increasing through the weekend, so it should be great conditions to finish the event. There is a big concert on Sunday, and also skate demonstrations throughout the weekend.

Gold medal harvest for Murwillumbah rowers at Qld state titles MURWILLUMBAH ROWING Club has cleaned up at the Queensland State Masters Championship at Wyaralong Rowing Centre on April 4-5. Club President Gary Betts said members came away with a tally of nine gold medals, three silver and four bronze medals. “Scott O’Reilly is off to the national titles in Perth after he got five gold medals; the Men’s Masters Quad D (50 - 55 years), A + B (27 - 41 years) C (42-50 years) as well as the Mixed D Double and the Mixed C Double,” he said. “Gaye Pullen got two gold medals in the Mixed F (60-65 years) Double and the Mixed G-M Double as well as a silver and a bronze. Gary also came away with two gold medals, in the Mixed F Double and the Mixed G-M Double as well as two silvers in the MM G-M Single and the MM F Single and a bronze in the Mixed G-M Quad. Michelle Grimes won a bronze in the Mixed G-M Quad with Gaye, Howard Williams and Gary.

Other competitors were Robin Blanch who came fifth with Michael Mills in the H Double and John McDonald who came fourth in the I Double with Howard Williams. Jan Mills joined the club recently and has already competed and won a medal. “I joined because I convinced my husband to join when he retired, and he was having too much fun so I had to start,” she said. “It’s been fabulous, the club and the camaraderie is great and you get fit without bursting a boiler. “It’s magic on the river in the morning.” Mr Betts said that they have special needs members and can cater to that category of rowers if anyone is interested. “It’s a great little club,” he said. “Our biggest asset is the river - as a small country club we punch well above our weight at state and national titles because of it. “It’s very protected and we can row 365 days a year and no other course can boast that.

“It’s beautiful and when you are rowing the coordination with team members is paramount, it’s like a moving meditation.” Club member Michelle Grimes it was very addictive rowing on the river each morning. “Mt Warning looks different every day. It’s just magic,” she said. Scott O’Reilly joined the club when he was 12 years old and said he loved being on the river. “It’s the challenge; mentally and physically - you never stop learning,” he said. “Rowing with like-minded people - it’s a real crew sport and rowing together will give

you a much better performance than as an individual. “I love it. It’s a way of life and I’ll do it as long as I can - there’s no better way to start the day.” On Sunday, June 23, the Murwillumbah Rowing Club is presenting HOTT, the Head of the Tweed, with teams coming from as far away as Tasmania and Townsville. Gary said it’s a spectacular sight and there would be great viewing on the Tweed River at Murwillumbah between 9.30am and 12pm on the day as the boats rowed in from Chinderah.

Clean sweep for Raiders against Murwillumbah and Hornets go down to Ballina

Luke Toon goes in under the post in the Raiders win against the Mustangs

By Jo Kennett THE TWEED Coast Raiders have found form again after a rocky start to the season, getting an 18-10 victory against competition leaders Murwillumbah in front of a big crowd at Cabarita on Sunday, May 5. The Mustangs started off well with Liam Cusack crossing for a try 11 minutes in. The Raiders didn’t seem to like that and a couple of minutes later Darryl Brooks broke out wide and went over for a try. Five minutes later Kalani Hensby scored. The Mustangs gave away a penalty which Ollie Singh converted to take it to 12-4. Luke Toon scored under the post for the Raiders with ten to go in the first half which took it to 18-4 with another conversion from

Singh. The Raiders had settled in and looked dominant for most of the first half with solid defence keeping the Mustangs off their line. Then Cody Hart went down and a stretcher was called for and it was looking like the injuries which had plagued the start of the season for the Tweed Coast team were on again, but he managed to limp off the field. Both sides came out hard in the second half with great defence keeping the score stuck on 18-4 for much of the game. Then with 11 minutes to go the 2018 NRRRL top try scorer Jack Bishop made a break out wide to score and take it to 18-10 with the conversion from the trusty boot of last year’s top goal scorer Wayde Kelly. The Raiders managed to buckle

down again and held off the Mustangs to take the win. They needed the points too as they lost their points from last week’s win as one of the players hadn’t registered, which was disappointing for the boys but may just have spurred them on to play with renewed confidence. They suddenly looked like the Raiders of old and the fans, who got a round of applause from the players at the end of the game, loved it. Mustangs coach Nathan Jordan said it was “a very disappointing result from our local derby clash with Tweed Coast doing the simple things better than us”. “They ran a bit harder, tackled more aggressively and were better in the wrestle. “To only get beaten by eight points was a positive as we didn’t play well. “Our best were Liam (Cusack), Bezzy (Joe Besgrove) and Big Country (no idea).” Raiders Kalani Hensby was man of the match and said it was good to be back to the old form. “Mustangs were top of the ladder and we knew it was going to be a tough battle but everyone stood up to the role and dug deep and got the job done so full credit to the boys,” he said. “Our defence was probably what won us the game. “I had faith in the boys to get the job done and we did.

“It’s a big loss having Cody injured but hopefully he will be okay.” In the Ladies League Tag the Raiderettes got the win 12-0 over the Mares. Raiderettes coach Trudi Carter said the team’s defence was outstanding. “They couldn’t break the line to score,” Carter said. “We still played solid attack even though a lot of people had to play out of position because we have been short with people away. “Some people have had to learn a couple of positions but we were still able to score some points so the girls are stepping up well.” In reserve grade the Raiders won 20-4 but it was a tougher match-up for the Under 18s with the Tweed boys getting the win 18-14. Next week the Raiders take on Lower Clarence away but first grade has a bye as Lower Clarence don’t have a team. Murwillumbah take on Casino at home.

Cudgen

Cudgen first grade took on last year’s finalists Ballina who have had a good start to the season. It was always going to be a tough game for the Hornets who are still without some key players and so it proved, with the team going down 36-8. It was five tries to two for the Hornets (one each from Tim James and Nick Andreas) but the

Seagulls had six goals as well from captain/coach Jamie Lyon who was always going to be threat and leads his men around the field well. Hopefully the Hornets can pick themselves up, dust themselves off and find their form again. They are up against Evans Head, who sit on the bottom of the ladder, next week and a win will give them that confidence boost they need going forward. The Cudgen girls, under new coach Letitia Kelly, continued their winning form in the LLT with a 28-6 victory over Ballina who came third last year. Captain Kirra Stedman said it was “another great effort by our entire team”. “We went into it as we do every game, forgetting the week before and knowing we have to give it our absolute all,” Stedman said. “We knew what we needed to improve on which was our attack and we certainly succeeded there and played our own game. “Our training lately has really stepped up and I think it is definitely showing. Once again very proud of the girls and the team, we continue to put our mark on the competition one game at a time.” The Hornets reserve grade team had a great 24-18 win over the Seagulls and the Under 18s took the win 18-12. Next week the Hornets take on Evans Head at Evans Head.
