Woolworths purchase Murwillumbah Bowls Club site

Local News 3

WHAT'S A STUMPY ?

WOOLWORTHS HAS confirmed to The Weekly that it will progress with the purchase of the Murwillumbah Bowls Club at the corner of Condong Street and Brisbane Street, with settlement due to take place in the next month.

Confirmation of the sale follows years of debate by locals as to how the site should be used and calls for the site to remain under its current zoning as recreational.

Tweed Shire Council has confirmed it is possible to change a recreational site into a commercial site, however, a previous application from Woolworths to develop the bowls club in mid-2015 was unanimously voted down by councillors.

The Weekly put several questions to Tweed Shire Council, who revealed that no new applications have been lodged to change the use of the site.

A spokesperson for Woolworths told The Weekly that although the sale is to be finalised next month, the supermarket has not made a decision on their plans for the site.

“Woolworths can confirm we have concluded terms with the Murwillumbah Services Club to buy the Murwillumbah Bowls club land in the next month,” the Woolworths spokesperson said.

“We are still evaluating our planning for this site and have not made any further decisions yet.”

The confirmation of the sale comes as social media was flooded with rumours that the sale was progressing and concerns for Murwillumbah’s recreational spaces.

An economic impact assessment by Location IQ from 2014 as part of the planning proposal to rezone the bowls

club land to commercial found that Sunnyside Mall would be impacted in the order of $11.7 million a year if the Woolworths was to open whilst Murwillumbah town centre food businesses would lose $4.1 million.

The report estimated that one out of every four dollars spent on food and groceries is leaving the Murwillumbah area.

Opening a second major supermarket could bring an additional 500,000 to 600,000 customers to the town that would spend an estimated $17 to $18 million and could flow onto other businesses such as pharmacies, newsagents and cafes.

Mt Warning Tours owner and operator and Tweed Experiences Network board member Michael Simmons posted his concerns via social media on Friday, March 16, posing the question “what do we want to become as a town in the future?”.

“Rumours have been confirmed that the Murwillumbah Services Club has sold the Murwillumbah Bowling Club at Condong Street to Woolworths Supermarkets,” Mr Simmons said.

“Let’s hope that the retail heart of Murwillumbah isn’t destroyed by this proposal to build a Woolworths on land that is zoned for recreational use, in the recreational precinct of the town.

“Murwillumbah’s great advantage as a growing visitor experience destination is its diversity, its boutique local businesses cafes and coffee shops, all located in the historical art deco buildings, in the CBD which would be threatened by this out of centre development.”

Mr Simmons emphasised that he was not questioning whether Murwillumbah should have another supermarket but

The Murwillumbah bowls club site

All Enquiries Welcome ~ Call 1300 678 443

whether the bowls club site was the right location for the supermarket.

“I am not saying we don’t need another supermarket, or even a future department store,” he said.

“Let’s make sure as a community that we get the right supermarket, in the right place, at the right time.

“Let’s as a local community work towards revitalising and reinvigorating the heart of the town “I believe that a carefully planned local community approach is needed to this issue.

“It needs to be focussed on what works best for all.

“A Woolworths or an Aldi is only part of the answer. If it comes it needs to complement what we already have.

“We really need to ask ourselves the question now. What do we want to become as a town in the future?”

THE QUEENSLAND waste levy for interstate garbage is expected to be reintroduced in the coming days and Tweed Shire Council has sought to assure local ratepayers the levy will not mean rate hikes.

Council said in a media statement that contractors were currently transporting approximately 35,000 tonnes of residual waste annually to South East Queensland from Council’s operations at Stotts Creek Resource Recovery Centre.

Council said its waste trips to SE Qld represents 3.5 per cent of the one million tonnes transferred over the border from interstate.

“Recoverable materials, including organic waste, are not sent to Queensland - only waste that is unable to be recycled,” Council’s media statement said.

“Residual waste is trucked to a state-ofthe-art landfill west of Ipswich.” .

Council’s Director of Community and Natural Resources Tracey Stinson said transporting the waste had saved Tweed valuable air space and delayed the significant cost to expand the Stotts Creek site over this time.

“There are also environmental benefits for us transporting residual waste to a state-of-the-art waste management centre which has landfill gas capture and energy recovery on the site,” Ms Stinson said.

“We take waste management seriously and strongly encourage the ‘less to landfill’ message by recycling as much waste as possible before sending only the residual waste to landfill.

“Thanks to the fantastic support from our community - who have really embraced our new third green bin -

Tweed is now diverting 62 per cent of our domestic waste away from landfill, up from 40 per cent six months ago.”

Ms Stinson said Council was ready to make the changes needed as a result of the Qld levy and can begin accepting waste at Stotts Creek again when required.

“We have at least two years’ worth of air space at our facility which could be extended even further the more successful our community is at reducing our waste,” she said.

“Our $40 million Masterplan for Stotts Creek Resource Recovery Centre will provide the necessary approvals and new infrastructure (including a green waste composting facility) for Tweed to completely manage our waste in the most sustainable way for at least the next 50 years.”

Pottsville needs a high school For a decade Metricon used the future high school in the Seabreeze estate as an inducement for families with young children to purchase land and build homes confident for their future education.

There are now hundreds of Pottsville students busing to distant schools, unable to participate in school sports and social events because of the daily trips home, they need a local high school now and there is no other possible site in or near Pottsville.

Terry O’Toole, Pottsville

Homes not school I totally agree with the comments made by local residents in last weeks’ issue in regards to the need for more homes in the Seabreeze estate and not a suggested school.

I don’t want the additional noise and traffic and definitely do not want to look at a school so close to my backyard.

I moved into the estate under the perception it was a housing community. There must be a better option.

I understand Metricon owns the land and from a business point of view they are better off selling off the land piece by piece and also building more of their homes as they are very popular in Seabreeze.

So I can understand why they have put in an application and from a local resident’s point of view I and others would like to see their homes rather than a school.

Crown Land sell-off The NSW Government has announced applications can be made from March 19 to convert Crown Land leases to freehold titles in the Western Division.

This will see these vital Crown Lands lost forever to the people of NSW and the public interest.

Also well under way is the Land Negotiation Program. The negotiations are for the transfer of Crown Lands to Land Councils and local government, including freehold rights. All three parties (State, Aboriginal Land Councils and local government councils)

Who wants to run trains?

Those who advocated the return of trains to the Casino to Murwillumbah rail line never mention who they expect would refurbish the track to the standard required to carry passengers or who would run these trains, certainly not the NSW Government, they closed it. Why? Because it was uneconomic and there wasn’t any freight traffic left.

Condong sugar mill hasn’t used it to transport sugar cane in and processed sugar products out for years. The last vestige of freight traffic ceased when Sun State Cement closed its fly ash trans shipment facility at Murwillumbah and sourced its fly ash from its home state of Queensland power stations.

What happened to Northern Rivers railroad who had the hook and pull contract for Sun State Cement, they left and took their rolling stock with them, including their tourist train offshoot Ritz Rail carriages, when told the line would close in a week and they would be stranded.

So what traffic was left? Just one XPT per day running at restricted speed, 10km per hour in some places I am told, because of the

Trains on tracks I am writing to you as a local Northern Rivers resident. I have recently joined in the discussion about the reasons why we need to plan and begin infrastructure to return trains to this region.

Some residents are calling for dismantling the rail track as it is and putting in a track suitable for a few people to ride their bikes and others to walk. I don’t believe a horse track could be compatible with a bicycle track.

Here are some of my reasons why I believe we should begin to plan to return trains to the region and eventually connect them from the Gold Coast to Casino.

• This will cut down the congestion that already exists on the M1 motorway.

• The corridor is already there. It’s owned by the government and doesn’t have to be resumed.

• This is an efficient way to move people from place to place.

• If the present track is ripped up to reinstall it would mean more expensive services for limited numbers.

• Train travel is stress free travel.

• Murwillumbah is presently isolated and the train line will open up and bring life and business back to towns and communities.

• Elderly people, children, families and people who generally live more isolated lives will be able to be more socially connected.

• It’s madness to think we can continue to function with single person car transport operating into the future.

• State Governments have built roads rather than rail services due to politics (ABC 4 Corners).

• As a nation we are living longer 85yrs plus is expected to be four times higher (ABC 4 Corners).

• There is an urgent need to develop infrastructure that suits all ages and all abilities.

Susan Kaden, Huonbrook

Light rail is possible After having proudly participated in the February 15 rally for trains I don’t believe what the rail trail group are saying. They continue to spruik around the hogwash that if the trail is not built asap the government will sell off parts of the corridor to the highest bidder.

This is absolutely not true as the corridor is protected by legislation under Section 99A Transport Administration Act 1988 and requires an act of parliament to close it as a rail corridor.

The Byron Bay train is very successful and will hopefully be extended. A light rail would be perfect for running between Murwillumbah and Stokers Siding and could be done if the people unite and demand it.

I urge everyone to support the Northern RIvers Railway Action Group (NRRAG) and Trains on our Tracks (TOOT).

The rail trail group are only thinking of the benefits of those who regularly cycle long distances.

A light rail service would be very beneficial for people living at Stokers Siding to travel to and from Murwillumbah and for tourism.

Chris Lazenby, South Murwillumbah

No school on Tyalgum Road Regarding the letter Karen Gail sent in (TVW March 15), I think you are missing the point we are making, there is no school there.

I certainly have no problem doing the speed limit and I am in full support of school zones at schools but there is no school on Tyalgum Road.

Now that Kingscliff once again has access to its village and another triathlon has passed, it’s encouraging to see signs of a compromise between residents and event organisers regarding more sensible and less restrictive street closures for future events.

However, these negotiations arose not from the efforts of Council professional staff, but as a result of complaints from residents and traders and the proactive efforts of a single councillor, Ron Cooper.

Why is it that one man, who is like his six compatriots on what amounts to a peppercorn salary, has to carry the burden for an executive staff paid good money to act on behalf of those who pay them, the ratepayers ?

Another case of too many getting too much for too little.

Jeremy Cornford, Kingscliff

state of the track and wooden bridges, with no critical passenger mass, then or in the foreseeable future to warrant the cost of keeping this line open.

Forget government operation in the future. If those who advocate the return of trains again on this railway line , you will have to lease the right of way or buy it from the government, like the Dorrigo organisation did.

You would have to run tourist trains as there is not enough population for a regular service, this would be a major undertaking needing very deep pockets. If you still wish to try running a railway yourself, just lease or buy the section Murwillumbah to Condong, with a possible extension in future to Tumbulgum.This would test the viability of a tourist railway, even better if there is a wealthy white knight in the area who would like his own full sized train set to play with to do it for you.

Thanks Ron re Kingy Tri

have to agree to the program for it to progress.

This program has been progressed with Tweed Shire Council (TSC) as one of four councils in NSW party to the Local Land Pilot with the State Government.

The double whammy for our Crown lands is the NSW Land Clearing Laws with those Crown Land Leases being converted to private land will no longer have any of the protections for the important biodiversity values, threatened species/habitat and ecosystems as occurs under the current Crown Lands Act. The Crown Lands Act that has been in place for more than a century to protect our public lands in the interests of the people of NSW is being repealed.

The enactment of the new Crown Lands Management Act will make what is unlawful lawful and set the path for the fast tracking of the sell-off and privatisation of our public lands.

The implications for our shire is the very real threat of our very precious Crown Lands being converted to private lands and development, thus excluding the people from their public lands.

illegal behaviour by a company at Limpinwood.

The matter regards logging, road works, and environmental damage. It was noted that five of the councillors voted for the motion including the Green Mayor, Labor Deputy Mayor, National Party, and two of the independents.

To see such support for the motion is heartening in that if these diverse ideological councillors vote together it must mean that the motion was indeed in the best interests of the shire.

What happened to the other two councillors? Well it seems that two councillors did not vote.

The reason for them not voting will probably never be revealed, however, I must say they are there to make decisions on our behalf.

Really not the sort of behaviour we want from our representatives is it?

The changing face of Tweed’s homelessness crisis

By Jo Kennett IT TAKES a Town Project Activator Carmen Stewart said her organisation is seeing a new type of homelessness which has worsened since the floods.

The number of people who are working but struggling to find affordable housing has increased significantly in recent years and Ms Stewart said those people often won’t seek support.

This comes as figures recently released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics estimated a total of 444 homeless people in the Tweed Shire in 2016, compared to 308 in the 2011 Census.

As reported in The Weekly last week the Northern Rivers vacancy rate dropped to 0.8 per cent in January with Tweed Heads South and Banora Point recording vacancy rates of only 0.4 per cent.

“If you’re a working person there’s a stigma with going to a homelessness support service,” Ms Stewart said.

“Their lease might run out and they have a month to get somewhere and then they start to panic because there are so many people competing for rentals at the moment.

“The floods and the cost of housing has certainly contributed to homelessness.

“We had less than one per cent rental vacancy prior to the floods, then we lost around 50 rental properties around Murwillumbah.

“Families that we wouldn’t traditionally see, for example a working mother who is a teacher

and business owners and people like that are close to homelessness.

“Social Futures recently supported a teacher with housing but not before a period of homelessness.

“When you look at those cases this is not traditional homelessness.

“We are seeing more and more working people on the point of homelessness.

Ms Stewart said the Tweed has four per cent of the state’s population and 20 per cent of the state’s rough sleepers are in the Northern Rivers.

“Anecdotally there are a lot of people moving from the Gold Coast and other places,” she said.

“There are a lot of families and older women sleeping in their cars.

“Some don’t want to go to traditional services for support because they’re worried about their children being taken away even though that’s not what actually happens.

“That’s the talk, that if I don’t have a house they will take my kids which isn’t the reality so they are struggling more by themselves when they could be getting help and coming to the homelessness services for support.

Ms Stewart said she thought the main problem facing the Tweed’s homeless is the lack of rentals in the market.

“We were promised $10 million for social housing but that is only enough for 20 houses and that’s from Tweed to Grafton and we’ve lost 50 rentals just in the Tweed which doesn’t include owner-occupied homes,” she said.

“We already had a huge crisis before the floods.

“Affordability is the problem we’re a low income area - we earn on average two thirds of the NSW income average and housing prices are high.

“There are lot of statistics that says we are highly unaffordable.”

Agape Outreach founder Reverend Theresa Mitchell is a frontline service provider for the homeless and said the problem has reached crisis point, with a significant growth in the demand for housing and food in recent years.

“I had to turn away eight people in need of food and housing this morning,” Rev Mitchell said.

“They are people living in their cars, people who are hungry because they have nothing to eat.

“It’s getting worse every year and the figures don’t reflect that.

“We are a non-funded agency and are doing so much but can’t get any help.

“We’ve been providing meals for the homeless for years and five years ago we would do 35 a night but now, four years later, we are doing 65 - it’s nearly doubled.

“Only a few months ago we still had 18 groups homeless from the floods, they weren’t allowed back into caravan parks because they are banning permanent residents.”

Rev Mitchell said that Queensland is banning permanent caravan residents completely which pushes more people on to the streets and creates mental health and other problems.

“Population pressures, housing affordability and other problems like domestic violence and mental

A lack of affordable housing has forced some residents to sleep in their cars

illness which lead to homelessness have all increased so much but public housing hasn’t,” she said.

“Anyone unemployed or on a pension can’t afford rent now.

“People don’t understand that there is no public housing.

“In the Tweed Shire we have four beds for youths and hundreds of kids sleeping on the streets.

“We need the government to invest in things like tiny house estates.

“It costs $500 000 for a house that gets two people off the street but if they gave me $5 million I could get 150 homeless people off the street and still give them supported living.

Rev M i t c h e l l s a i d s h e h a s volunteers that have been on emergency housing lists for 24 years.

One of those volunteers is Carol Davies, who suffers manic depression and is on disability support.

“I’ve put an application in 2003 which was backdated to 1996,” she said.

“I’ve been back regularly and last time they told me that when I turn 55 come back in because there is housing for older people.

“I know other people who don’t really need public housing and they’ve got it but I really need it.

Ms Davies owned a caravan but lost it when she had car problems to repair and couldn’t afford the rent at the caravan park.

“I lost all my possessions as well and ended up on the street,” she said.

“Summer is fine but not the winter.

“Then I got into a boarding house but it isn’t that great.

“I couldn’t find anything to rent because there are always so many people going for them.

“I’ve waited years for public housing but nothing ever happens and I’ve talked to another guy who has been waiting 30 years.

“I’m a local girl too but it feels like people from other places are getting public housing before the locals that really need it.”

Ms Davies volunteers at St Vincent de Pauls and Agape Outreach with Rev Mitchell.

“It’s been great helping Theresa and using the coffee machine and everyone knows me, Ms Davies said. “ M y f a m i l y o w n e d Ro s e Restaurant in Coolangatta and they always helped the homeless and now I’m continuing the family tradition.”

Allegations of water extraction breaches

75867

WATER EXTRACTION remains a hot topic in the Tweed Valley this week with the Tweed Water Alliance (TWA) attracting national media coverage over what the group alleges are “serious breaches” in development approval conditions for the extraction of water from several operations across the Tweed Valley.

TWA spokesman Jeremy Tager says he has released what he said are the results of months of investigative work by association members, which uncover alleged breaches of development approval conditions for the extraction of water at four operations.

The group claim to have witnessed and documented b-doubles allegedly operating outside of their approved conditions in the Tweed Valley to cart water out of the shire for the purposes of bottling.

Mr Tager has also questioned the monitoring and enforcement of conditions by the NSW Office of Water and Tweed Shire Council, which he believes are failing to act and stamp out breaches to current development applications.

“So, we decided we needed to find out the truth of the various breach allegations we received from the community,” he said.

“It was far worse than we expected. The attitude of the industry appears to be: ‘we can do whatever we want’.”

Mr Tager alleges that in one case an operator continued to run almost double the number of permitted trucks “even as it is litigating against Council for daring to turn down a massive expansion of his water operation”.

“Even when breaches have been identified NSW Office of Water has never imposed a penalty and Tweed Shire Council has imposed a fine twice,” he said.

Mr Tager said TWA’s investigation was motivated in part by the fact that the association believes water extraction is a “loselose industry” for the Tweed Shire.

This is despite one water extraction operator receiving multiple industry awards and providing employment in its local bottling operation.

It should also be noted that previous hydrological reports compiled by DPI Water had highlighted that water extraction was below acceptable limits in the Tweed Shire, as the refresh rates were considered substantial.

However, many local residents have expressed concerns with increased numbers of water trucks using local roads in particular b-doubles, which several residents fear could congest roads, risk accidents and increase damage to road infrastructure at the expense of ratepayers.

“It provides no local benefit to the shire, but ruins amenity, gives our roads a pounding, threatens to take water from the world heritage rainforests that surround us and ends up in plastic bottles that are part of what is one of the world’s worst waste issues,” Mr Tager said.

“The industry comprehensively fails the most basic public interest test.”

Mr Tager said the TWA was now calling for a full investigation by the NSW Office of Water and Tweed Shire Council using their investigative powers to find out whether alleged breaches are substantiated.

“Our water must remain in the Tweed for the benefit of its residents and environment,” he said.

Mayor calls for rethink on river use QUESTIONS ARE again being raised over the use of the Tweed River for extreme water sports including wakeboarding as Mayor Katie Milne will raise a motion at tonight’s Tweed Shire Council meeting (Thursday, March 22) calling on Councillors to “not support extreme water sports”.

The motion calls on Councillors to not support extreme water sports such as wakeboarding or other water-based activities that have a “high impact on other passive waterway recreation users or marine life and/or creates erosion of the banks of the waterways” and Council to develop “a strategy and Local Environmental Plan amendment to prohibit these commercial uses”.

The motion comes as Council’s Tweed River Estuary Coastal Management Program enters its final stages of consultation with public exhibition of the plan expected to occur in the coming months.

One of the key recommendations of the Tweed River Recreational Use Study is the promotion of ‘character zones’ to balance active and passive recreational use and river rehabilitation.

Towing is recommended to be prohibited upstream of the Commercial Road boat ramp in Murwillumbah and adjacent to Stott’s Island and the Tweed Broadwater but would permitted between Stott’s Island and the Commerical Road boat ramp.

The Recreational Use Study identifies the area as being subject to severe erosion and states that riverbank protection and stabilisation works would be required if towing were to be permitted along that stretch of the river.

“Significant bank protection works will be required to ensure that continued wake generating boat use in this area is sustainable, but must be designed and constructed in a way that protects visual amenity and maximises ecological benefits,” the report reads.

“No vessels restrictions above existing Roads and Maritime Service regulations are advocated in this area.”

Meanwhile Murwillumbah resident and rower Michelle Grimes wrote to The Weekly to express her concerns that skiers and other users of power craft should not be permitted to use the Tweed River between the Condong bridge and Commercial Road boat ramp.

“I speak from the perspective of a rower who trains on the river most mornings,” she said.

“There are no restrictions on power craft currently and I believe there needs to be for safety reasons if nothing else.

“It would be preferable if power craft were restricted between Condong Bridge and the Commercial Road bridge, the main areas that rowers use.

“When local school children select rowing for their sport they are on the river learning to row at different times of the day, including weekends.

“Beginners are not experienced enough to keep a rowing scull upright in the wake that can be caused from skiers, wake boats, jet skis etc.

“Even experienced rowers find it difficult and quite often have to stop rowing to stay afloat.

“It would be a much safer option to limit power craft usage between the two bridges and make it for the exclusive use of non-powered motor craft as there could quite easily be a bad accident if something is not done.”

Mrs Grimes also highlighted her concerns with further riverbank erosion which she said is made worse by the skiers and wakeboarders.

“Restoration with rock walling has to be done to shore up the banks, which in turn means using ratepayers’ money,” she said.

“It would make more sense to restrict these activities to a controlled stretch of the river so that it is not happening all along it.”

Kingscliff resident Faye Gleave (left) is all smiles after receiving her $50 gift voucher for registering her Neighbour Day event from Council Education Officer Melissa Tate (centre). Ms Gleave and neighbour Judith Wootton (right) are organising a bring-a-plate event for their street in the local park. There’s still time to register your event prior to Neighbour Day on Sunday 25 March and go into the draw for a Weber BBQ and stand valued at $500. Go to Council’s Facebook page and click on the event for more details. If you are not on Facebook, you can still participate by calling (02) 6670 2567.

Catch-up with your community at Knox Park BBQ Council will acknowledge the ongoing recovery from the floods associated with Cyclone Debbie with a community catch-up and free barbecue in Knox Park.

The event will be held from 3pm to 6pm on Thursday 29 March, one year on from the flood, and will include members of community organisations who provided and continue to provide assistance.

Tweed Shire Council Manager Community and Cultural Services Robyn Grigg said the gathering will be a casual event and open to everyone.

“We all have our own memories of what happened one year ago and for many members of our community the recovery is still ongoing,” Ms Grigg said.

“The purpose of this event is to recognise and acknowledge that ongoing recovery and to show that we are here to provide support however we can.

“We are asking people to bring a blanket and gather together in an informal way with others who have some sense of shared experience.”

Representatives from Council and the State Emergency Service will speak at the gathering and there will be some activities planned with children in mind facilitated by Thrive 2484 and other volunteers.

Council staff will also be on hand to hand out chocolate Easter eggs while the SES will be coordinating the free barbecue.

Work ramping up at Tweed Heads Museum Work to preserve heritage buildings forming the Tweed Regional Museum precinct at Tweed Heads is about to achieve another milestone.

Following construction of a new office and research centre and restoration of the original Tweed Heads Court House, completed in October last year, work will now shift to restoring the original point of entry into the building.

Museum Director Judy Kean said the next stage of this project involves removal of the old and deteriorating ramp entry from the front of the Court House and construction of a new version that is safe and meets accessibility requirements.

“This work will significantly enhance public access to the precinct and we’ll be able to complete the work without interrupting our normal opening hours,” Ms Kean said.

“Construction will commence on site on Monday 19 March and will be ongoing for two or three months.”

Some earthmoving and site fencing will be involved, however public opening hours for the Court House building and Tweed Heads Historical Society research rooms will remain unchanged: Tuesday and Wednesday, and the fourth Sunday of each month 10am – 4pm.

“Visitors will need to access the Court House by an alternative pathway but there will be signage in place to provide directions,” said Ms Kean.

Work is also moving ahead on the refurbishment and reinterpretation of Boyd’s Shed, along with minor repairs to the interior and an upgrade of displays.

“We’ve undertaken a number of oral history and video interviews to supplement photographs and other information that was installed in the Shed when it was originally relocated,” Ms Kean said.

“The buildings that make up the Museum precinct at Kennedy Drive offer a rare insight into the old Tweed Heads and its rich maritime and fishing past.

“The Museum’s location on the shores of Terranora Inlet, adjacent to a public jetty in Pioneer Park, offers many opportunities for the public to appreciate this rich and continuing coast and river story.”

This work is assisted by a Heritage Activation Grant received under the NSW Department of Environment and Heritage, Heritage Near Me program.

Last available lawn burial sites at Tweed Heads Cemetery are now available

The final plots available at Tweed Heads Cemetery have now been released.

The last block of land set aside for final resting places in Tweed Heads Cemetery has been released.

Tweed Heads Cemetery off Kirkwood Road has opened its last available lawn burial area, named Section 224 in line with historical naming practices.

Tweed Shire Council Asset Coordinator Peter Ganser said the generic name does not reflect the true nature of the wellpresented site.

“The site is secluded and private, lined with mature trees on both sides and easily accessible by visitors,” Mr Ganser said.

“The area has a protection fence placed along its length and has a number of water outlets to allow easy filling of vases when loved ones visit and leave floral tributes for the departed.

“We have also run in an all-weather road to the section to ensure easy access for hearses and safe walking access for visitors, which has also improved access to the general cemetery sites on the way to this new area.”

The site has been levelled off by raising the western side more than two metres in the centre using large concrete blocks and undertaking comprehensive earth compacting works to stabilise the whole area ready to take dual depth burials of two

coffins per grave.

Cemetery Administrator John Stennett confirmed that he sold a site in the new area prior to completion to a family that found it appealing even in its uncompleted state.

“It’s even better now and the community will be pleased with this addition to the interment choices at Tweed,” Mr Stennett said.

Tweed Heads still has several hundred available sites scattered among the established areas and Council anticipates that the cemetery will remain open for burials at current rates for at least 10 to 15 years.

The site also has major opportunities for ash memorials and development of these sites will extend the active life of this cemetery site for well over 50 years.

The Tweed Valley Lawn Cemetery at Eviron is projected to provide for the burial needs of the Tweed community for up to 80 years.

Cemetery staff are always please to talk with the public and assist with their enquiries when on site.

For more information on this and other cemetery sites, call the Cemetery Administrator on (02) 6670 2435 or visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/Cemeteries

TRAC supporting accessible, safe swimming for all

Murwillumbah High School Support Unit student Lachlan Burns (left) enjoys a swim with Joseph Besgrove.

A new agreement between Tweed Shire Council and the peak life saving body in Australia will provide support for members of the community who face extra challenges when it comes to enjoying a swim.

The agreement between Council and the Royal Life Saving Society under their Swim and Survive program will cover the costs of ensuring students from Murwillumbah High School’s Support Unit stay safe in the water.

With the support of the program students from the unit will be able to make regular visits to the Tweed Regional Aquatic Centre’s (TRAC) facilities at Murwillumbah.

TRAC Aquatic Programs Supervisor Jeff Collier said the funding will support a group with a wide range of swimming abilities.

“The program will focus on water safety activities and stroke correction for the more able swimmers, with the immediate prospects of assisting swimmers that are attending the State School Swimming Championships in Sydney in April,” Mr Collier said.

The funding means Keshav Biswas, a student from the unit, will

receive specialised coaching from TRAC staff ahead of his trip to Sydney next month.

Other students will benefit from having one-on-one monitoring to ensure their safety in the pool, while staff will also organise activity and movement programs for those who can follow on their own.

The Swim and Survive program aims to increase the swimming, water safety and lifesaving skills of all Australian children with the overall goal of reducing the number of drowning deaths.

It specifically targets those who have challenges that result in them missing out on water safety education programs offered to young people across the country as part of the regular school curriculum.

Teacher Pamela Mathews said the experience of participating in the program will benefit the students throughout their entire lives.

“The extra swimming instruction means our students will be more confident in the water and their general fitness and balance will improve,” Ms Mathews said.

“Students will be more competent and confident to access swimming programs and activities once they have left school.”

Making the road ahead safer for older drivers Free workshops to make the road ahead less daunting for older drivers will be held across the Tweed in April.

The workshops are being delivered by Council’s Road Safety Officer Alana Brooks, as part of the Local Government Road Safety Program, to give older drivers some safe driving tips and explain commonly misunderstood road rules and licensing laws.

The key to staying on the road as an older driver is selfregulation and awareness of the factors that can affect your ability to drive. Changes in health that come with ageing, such as vision impairment, dementia and increased reliance on medication can reduce your focus, road awareness and reaction times when you’re behind the wheel.

However, by making good decisions older drivers can adjust their driving patterns to avoid situations where they feel unsafe. For example, they may choose not to drive at night, in poor weather or during peak times.

All drivers over the age of 75 years must pass a yearly medical check to continue driving. Drivers aged 85 years and over must pass an on-road driving assessment every two years to retain an unrestricted license or they can choose to get a modified license without undergoing a formal test.

The modified license allows them to drive only at certain times and for certain distances in their local area to do what they need to do, such as shop, attend medical appointments or community activities.

The workshops will cover: • safe driving tips • commonly misunderstood road rules • vehicle safety • pedestrian safety • physical fitness and driving, and • mobility alternatives.

The workshops will be held at: • Pottsville Community Hall, Tuesday 10 April, 10 – 11.30am • Murwillumbah Civic Centre, Canvas and Kettle Meeting Room, Friday 20 April, 10 – 11.30am • Tweed Heads Civic Centre, South Islander Sea Room, Monday 23 April, 10 – 11.30am • Banora Point Community Centre, Coolamon Room, Tuesday 24 April, 9.30 – 11am Bookings are essential. Call Council on (02) 6670 2400.

Refreshments will be provided.

Heather Matthew with her work ‘Bridge’ from the collection ‘Silt’ now on display at Tweed Regional Museum Murwillumbah.

On show at the museum The work of a local artist which takes a personal and upclose look at the impact of the floods associated with Cyclone Debbie is one of the features of a new display at Tweed Regional Museum in Murwillumbah.

Heather Matthew’s work, ‘Preserved Memories’, is part of a larger project underway to document stories of the Tweed’s most recent flood.

Acquired from the exhibition Posts from the Big Flood, part of the Murwillumbah Art Trail in May 2017, Matthew’s work is made of objects rescued from the flood waters which devastated her studio in South Murwillumbah in March/April last year.

Museum Director Judy Kean said while some may question why the Museum is adding artworks to its collection, those who view the work will understand.

“In this case the work consists entirely of objects – preserving jars and a box – from Heather’s studio, as well as some actual flood water that inundated her equipment,” Ms Kean said. “‘Preserved Memories’ and Heather’s willingness to work with us to tell her story goes to the heart of an experience shared by many.”

The artist has recorded a video with Ms Kean talking about her work and her journey over the past year which will also become part of the Museum’s collection.

‘Preserved Memories’ and Heather’s most recent work, ‘Silt,’ made using paper rescued from the flood waters in her studio, together with the video footage, will be displayed at the Museum as part of the Murwillumbah Art Trail (MAT18) in May.

Tweed Hospital coping with record patient numbers Casuarina home robbed

By Jonathon Howard THE NORTHERN NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD) has rejected suggestions that The Tweed Hospital has reached patient capacity highlighting that recent data shows patient numbers have increased, but staff are continuing to maintain high levels of patient care.

The comments come as the Tweed Shire waits in anticipation for the announcement of the new Tweed hospital site, expected to be around Kingscliff, and as residents and local media have reported concerns The Tweed Hospital could buckle under the pressure of mounting patient numbers.

However, NNSWLHD Chief Executive Wayne Jones said The Tweed Hospital continues to deliver high quality, safe and effective patient care, even as patient numbers continue to increase.

“The most recent Bureau of Health Information report showed that for the October to December 2017 quarter, The Tweed Hospital saw a 3.7 per cent increase (or 486 more) inpatient presentations, when compared to the same quarter in 2016,” Mr Jones said.

“Even with the increase in presentations, the percentage of patients receiving care and leaving the Emergency Department within four hours improved slightly, up to 83.4 per cent compared to 81.8 per cent for the same quarter in 2016.”

Mr Jones also highlighted that The Tweed Hospital performed five per cent more surgeries during the quarter, with clinicians and all hospital staff working “exceptionally well to produce these good results”.

“The ongoing sound performance of The Tweed Hospital is a testament to the hard work of our clinicians and hospital support staff, who are able to continue to deliver great care for our patients,” he said.

Mr Jones also updated Tweed residents on the modular building (medical pod) that was placed on The Tweed Hospital site towards the end of 2017 and is currently being transformed into an inpatient unit to be occupied in mid-2018.

“These holding works are essential for us to be able to continue to meet the health care needs of the Tweed community while the new hospital is being built,” Mr Jones said.

“The community and our staff will benefit immensely from the new facilities, which will enable them to keep delivering the high standard quality healthcare that they are known and respected for.”

Update on Dialysis Unit

The NSW Government announced $400,000 in funding to develop a satellite Renal Dialysis Unit at Murwillumbah District Hospital in 2017 which is expected to open in August this year.

“Works are progressing on the unit, with the design phase now complete,” Mr Jones said.

“Tenders for the construction of the unit have recently closed and are being evaluated by Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD).”

Mr Jones said construction is expected to commence in April this year and will be completed by July 2018, with the unit scheduled to become operational in August 2018.

“This new service will enable patients requiring renal dialysis to receive treatment closer to home, giving back a huge amount of time to these patients,” he said.

The Murwillumbah Renal Unit will be a networked service, operated in conjunction with the existing renal unit at The Tweed Hospital.

“Patients will benefit from the skills and experience of specially-trained dialysis nurses who will work across both sites and provide the same high level of care to patients at whichever facility they attend,” he said.

in broad daylight

Jo Kennett BRAZEN THIEVES have broken into a Casuarina Way home and stolen valuables in broad daylight on Tuesday, March 20.

The owner of the home, who did not want to be named, said that she was only away for 35 minutes but when she returned the whole house had been ransacked.

“I locked up and went out at 10.25am and when I returned the front door was ajar,” she said.

“I drove into the garage and I was really scared going in - I was petrified because I thought someone might be hiding there.

“I walked straight into the bedroom and there were drawers out with the contents tipped over the bed and the floor.

“Even the walk-in-wardrobe and the bathroom had everything just tipped out everywhere.

“I felt sick when I saw it all.

“I walked into the kitchen and the main food cupboard door was open and both the cabinets.

“I walked into the office and everything had been pulled out of the filing cabinet and strewn all over the floor.

“They had gone through the linen closet and the two spare bedrooms and even pulled out packing boxes and gone through them. All in 35 minutes.”

The traumatised woman said that police had told her there had been ‘a lot of activity’ between Kingscliff and Pottsville recently.

“When I started sorting things out I realised how much had been stolen,” she said.

“All my jewellery including my wedding and engagement rings and everything except the earrings I was wearing has gone.

“A camera, an old coin collection, a watch that my husband’s father gave him before he passed away, even old ornaments off the side tables were all taken.

“The police said they go for smaller things like cash and credit cards now but we don’t keep cash around the house.

“The fingerprint man came but he couldn’t get very good prints. He said he was only down the road at 8am in the morning because thieves had tried to steal someone’s car.

“To do all that in 35 minutes they must have been professionals. We had been away for a week and had no idea about the crimes that have been going on.”

THE WEEKLY is proud to introduce a new journalist Jo Kennett to The Weekly team, as the Tweed Shire’s only independent and locally based newspaper continues to grow and strive for excellence.

Jo brings a range of outstanding skills having been a reporter with the ABC and having a strong background in print journalism.

But one of her best qualities lies in her passion for the Tweed Shire and enthusiastic interest in understanding and engaging with local residents.

Based at the Tweed Coast, Jo said she hopes to help widen the engagement with The Weekly across the shire, in particular the coast, while maintaining the company’s strong roots in the valley.

“I’m so happy to have joined The Weekly team on the news rounds,” she said.

“This is a big step for me and something I’ve always wanted to do.

“I’ve already been hot on leads and talking to locals to find out more about the stories that matter to them.”

Jo said she was an avid reader of The Weekly prior to being employed and has watched the paper grow in a tough environment.

“I’m a big lover of print media and love my weekend reads,” she said.

“It feels like a huge privilege to be writing for our local independent news source and to continue to develop my skills as a reporter.

“While the first few weeks have been hard to keep up with the pace, I’m learning fast and have already gained a few scoops.”

Jo will cover coastal rounds, sport and investigative stories across emergency services, police rounds and much more.

“They’re all such great people at The Weekly, it’s nice to be a part of such a close team,” she said.

“I’m looking forward to hearing from locals and reporting the many events and interests that help shape our beautiful Tweed Shire.”

You could have a balance or vestibular disorder

BALANCE is easily taken for granted.

However when the fragile vestibular organs of the inner ear and brain are damaged by illness or injury, anyone can lose their ability to balance.

T

o achieve good physical balance, we rely on our brain, eyes, innerear, and musculoskeletal system to work in harmony.

Balance disorders are typically under diagnosed and undertreated.

More than 1/3 of adults aged 40 years and older experience vestibular dysfunction at some point in their lives.

Common symptoms of vestibular disorders include vertigo and dizziness. Vertigo is a spinning or whirling sensation, or an illusion of the self or world moving. Dizziness is a lightheaded, floating or rocking sensation. Poor balance, nausea, visual disturbances, headache, hearing loss, tinnitus, and pain or fullness in the ears can accompany vestibular disorders.

HOW CAN YOUR OSTEOPATH HELP? There are many causes of dizziness or vertigo. But most types of vestibular disorders can be diagnosed by means of a thorough medical history and clinical examination. The most common type of vertigo is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), and once diagnosed is easily treated with repositioning manoeuvres, with a success rate of 90%.

Another type of vertigo encountered is Cervicogenic Vertigo, which is due to a dysfunction in the neck. Again once diagnosed, it can be easily treated with Osteopathic intervention.

Your Osteopath can diagnose most of the common types of vestibular disorders and can either treat the condition or refer on for further diagnosis and treatment.

Commonwealth Games spirit alive and well on the Tweed

By Jonathon Howard KINGSCLIFF LOCAL and athletics coach Phillip Newton is helping the Commonwealth Games spirit shine this year after he opened his home and offered his expertise to help two outstanding athletes from Papua New Guinea to achieve their Comm Games dreams.

Whilst still a fierce supporter of the Aussie competitors, Mr Newton is assisting Ephraim Lerkin, 19, and Peniel Richard, 23, who are relative new comers to their respective sports but have already achieved outstanding results and are tipped to make the finals in the Commonwealth Games next month.

Mr Newton said this would be the first Commonwealth Games for both athletes and they were both aware they will have to achieve personal best performances in their preferred events to make it into the medal round.

“They’re both keeping their cool and are not overawed in any way,” he said.

“They are both looking forward to the challenge and have their sights firmly set on achieving new personal best performances and new national records.

Ephraim Lerkin, 19, is an incredible 400-metre hurdles sprinter and has a current personal best time

Ephraim Lerkin training at Kingscliff

of 51.5 seconds, which he’s hoping to smash during the trials.

“Ephraim is from Simberi Island, Papua New Guinea and in 2016 he won the under 18s 400m sprint and 400m hurdles at the South Australian State Championships,” Mr Newton said.

“The 400m hurdles winning time qualified Ephraim for the World Junior (U20) championships held in Poland.

“In July, 2017 he won the Oceania Championship 400m hurdles in Fiji and then in August travelled to London for the World Championships where he was unplaced in his heat.

“December, 2017 he came second in the 400m hurdles at the Pacific Mini Games in Vanuatu.

“February, 2018 he came to train in Kingscliff in preparation for the Commonwealth Games and in early March we travelled to Melbourne to contest the Victorian State Championships where once again he won the 400m hurdles.”

Mr Newton said Ephraim’s last race in preparation for the Comm Games will be in Brisbane on March 28 where a full field of athletes from throughout the Commonwealth will be competing at the Brisbane Track Classic.

The second athlete is Peniel Richard, 23, who has a great record for high jump but recently switched his focus long jump and triple jump, which has proven a great move.

Peniel from Goroka, Eastern Highlands Province, Papua New

Peniel Richard flying high

Guinea won his first National Title in 2012 in high jump clearing 1.83m at 17 years of age.

“Then in 2014 Peniel placed second in the high jump at the Oceania Championships in Cairns jumping 2.05m, just 1cm under his National Record,” Mr Newton said.

“In 2016 he secured a scholarship to Angelo State University in San Angelo Texas and it was here that Peniel has concentrated on his long jump and triple jump to the point where in July 2017 he set new National Records of 7.23m in the long jump and 15.35m in the triple jump.

“Also, in July he travelled to Fiji to represent his country at the Oceania Championships where he won the Triple Jump.

“In December 2017 he competed in the Pacific Mini Games in Vanuatu where he once again won the triple jump, improving his National Record to 15.45m.”

Chance of hockey gold for Dylan

By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH HOCKEY star Dylan Wotherspoon has been officially selected as part of the Commonwealth Games Kookaburras Hockey team, fulfilling a lifelong dream to play for Australia at Comm Games 2018.

While previously selected in the Australian squad and having played 64 games, this will be the first Commonwealth Games for Dylan, who spoke to The Weekly about his passion for hockey from his home in Brisbane.

The Kookaburras are also tipped as the favourites in the Commonwealth Games to win gold.

“We are currently the number one team in the world and have won the Commonwealth Games for the last five years,” Dylan said.

“Despite this, we are heading in with the mentality that we are on an equal playing field with the rest of the teams, because honestly it can be anyone’s game out there.”

Dylan said he was excited for all the hard work and training to pay off but was even more excited to represent Australia in a sport he loves.

Dylan was born at The Tweed Hospital and attended school at Tweed where he started his hockey career.

“Tweed will always be a special place for me and as my family still lives in Tweed, I love coming home whenever I can,” he said from his current Brisbane home.

“I would like to consider myself to be a very humble person.

“I am very proud of my achievements, but I always remember where I have come from and how it has played a massive role in shaping my path to my dream.

“I really believe that without the great unconditional support of my family and friends as well as the ongoing encouragement from the Tweed community, I wouldn’t have been able to get to where I am today.”

Dylan’s passion for hockey started when his parents and two sisters were already playing the game and soon after he also started playing.

“So, as you can imagine, my parents' home in Tweed has a massive collection of hockey sticks and gear,” he said.

“I started playing at the age of four-years old for the Murwillumbah Redbacks and stayed with this team until I moved to Brisbane to further chase my hockey dream when I was 16.

“I was even lucky enough to have my dad coach for me for a couple of those years.

“I played a number of State and Nationals competitions and even won the gold medal at the Youth Olympics in Singapore.

“I distinctly remember meeting Nathan Eglinton, a Kingscliff local, down at the fields in Murwillumbah after he had just returned from the 2004 Athens Olympics with his gold medal.

“Meeting Nathan really inspired me as I was able to see someone who had come from my local area, achieve the honour of being able to represent his country in hockey.

“He also gave me my first Voodoo hockey stick and since then I have never stopped using Voodoo and now they even sponsor me.”

Dylan described Tweed as a great hockey community which has over the years proven to be a great base for producing professional hockey players.

“I have wanted to play for the Kookaburra’s for as long as I can remember and I am proud that I was able to turn a kids dream into a reality,” he said.

Dylan has been focusing on his training in the lead up to the games next month and he’s also giving other young sports people some advice to achieve their dreams.

“I train every day of the week, with training consisting of either gym, stick and ball or skills and conditioning,” he said.

“I also play every Saturday in the Brisbane Hockey League for Labrador Hockey Club.

“Never think your dream is too big.

Everyone has their different paths and journey to get to where they are so never compare yourself to others.

“Stay focused on your personal goals, however, more importantly the biggest thing to remember is to enjoy yourself.”

Barbarians trial against Melbourne THE CASUARINA Beach Rugby Club hosted two senior trial matches on Saturday, March 17 in the lead-up to the season opener on April 7.

The Casuarina Barbarians played the Second XV from the Melbourne Rugby Club and the Far North Coast Senior Men’s Rugby Representative Team played the Melbourne Rugby Club First XV. Director of Rugby and Head Coach of the Casuarina Beach Barbarians Adam Leach said Casuarina competed well against the Victorian side.

“It gave everyone a good run and it sets us up for a good season,” Mr Leach said.

“It was our last trial match after playing Nerang, Bond Pirates, and Noosa Rugby Club.

“We’re having a training session against Tokai University from Japan on Thursday night and the public is welcome to come down and have a look at it under lights.

“It’s like a mini-game semi-opposed where we practise different aspects of attack, defence and out set piece.

The first game of the year features the Barbarians against Bangalow at the Casuarina Rugby Fields on April 7 and Mr Leach said the season is shaping up well.

“This year’s squad is a lot stronger than last year because we’ve recruited really well,” he said.

“This year we have a lot more players as well and we are hoping to build two senior men’s teams.”

The Far North Coast representative side featured five Casuarina players against the Melbourne club’s First XV. “The Melbourne team were very physical and they beat the Far North Coast team convincingly,” Mr Leach said.

“It was a positive experience for the players though and good for the team to compete at that level.”

Local Expert Health Advice – Open 7 Days Generic Medications

Everyday people wonder if ‘’generic medications’’ work? Although the saying “you get what you pay for’’ is true in some cases, is it true for generic medications (the cheaper brand)?

Generic medications contain the same active ingredient in the same dose and strength of the original brand, and also is absorbed at the same rate. When a company develops a new drug, they are granted a patent, allowing them to exclusively sell that medication for a period of time. This helps with recouping all the overhead cost associated with drug development and more. Once this period of time has finished, other companies are allowed to make generics of the original medication. Generics can be cheaper as they do not need to recoup the additional costs associated with the research, development, testing and approval of the original medication. Although the active ingredient is the same, inactive ingredients may differ, which can change the colour, shape, size; but be reassured that every generic medicine on the market is proven, to the satisfaction of the Australian Government’s drug

agency, to operate in the same way on the body as the original brand of medicine. Inactive ingredients don’t play a role in the therapeutic outcomes of the medication, but people with allergies (e.g. lactose) should discuss their use with their pharmacist or doctor.

Webster Packing

So what happens if the colour or shape of the medication is different? If you are one of those people who rely on colour and shape to organise your pills, changing generic medications can make this process confusing. Sometimes pharmacies cannot help changing generics brands due to shortages (which is a regular occurrences at the moment). To help with this, Casuarina Discount Drug Store, offers FREE medication packing. This process involves us organising your medications in a sealed compartment, under specific times and days, helping you take the right medication at the right time every day. This can more individualised so that you can get your medications organised weekly, fortnightly or monthly. With our FREE delivery service you can be sure that you have your medications ready for you on a daily basis.

Coastal crime spree continues

By Jo Kennett

A DRAMATIC police pursuit through the streets of Casuarina had to be terminated at the Queensland border on Monday night, March 19.

The occupants of a white Mitsubishi Triton utility were alleged to have been involved in the theft of a BMW from Casuarina around 1.30am that morning.

Police had been called to Laceflower Parade in Casuarina where a witness had sighted the BMW which had been reported stolen.

Tweed Byron Police Chief Inspector Mick Dempsey said the BMW was travelling with the Triton utility, registration plate number BY78YO. Police had been able to identify one of the alleged offenders, who was known to them, before they fled over the border.

Queensland Police were waiting at the border, however, were unable to apprehend the thieves.

The owner of the vehicle posted to social media on Wednesday, March 21, stating that the vehicle had been located and the offenders apprehended.

“We just received a call from Burleigh Heads police who we have been in contact with since yesterday - and have been great,” the vehicle’s owner said.

“They found our car at an address, and caught the guys who did it too “The car is currently in forensics, and we will await more information “The chase was reported on social media by several locals who witnessed the police pursuing the alleged offenders through the streets of Casuarina.”

Reduction in Tweed crime

THE TWEED saw an overall reduction in crime during 2017 compared to the previous year, with numbers down in 11 of the 17 major crime categories.

The Tweed also scored lower than the state average for all crimes except robbery with a firearm and murder.

Robbery with a firearm was 1.3 times the state average and murder 5.2 times higher, however, it should be noted there are only a small number of these crimes committed each year (three murders and two robberies with a firearm).

Categories that saw an increase included domestic violence assault (up 0.7 per cent), non domestic violence assault (up 5.4 per cent), indecent assault (31 per cent) and malicious damage to property (11.9 per cent).

Despite a recent spate of crimes on the coast, in 2017 breakand-enters reduced (dwellings by 2 per cent and non-dwellings by 30 per cent) motor vehicle theft (down 9.3 per cent), steal from store (16 per cent) and steal from dwelling (down 5.4 per cent) and vehicles (down 5.1 per cent).

Powerful New Ways to Save with Solar

“The Best Investment You Can Make in 2018 is More Solar Power for Your Home”

How to Get the Most from Your Solar Investment in 2018 Switch Power Companies Solar Power is the best investment you can make in 2018. In this special feature we will show you how you can maximise savings on your power bill with strategic new ways that make the most of new technologies and changing network conditions.

There are huge differences in the pricing of Energy Retailers today. You want to get the most for selling your solar, but you don’t want to pay more for everything else!

Some retailers set a high price so they can then give you a “discount” and many people believe the highest percentage discount is what you are looking for. It is confusing to try and compare offers and most people do not have time to wade through this mine field. At 888 Solar Tek we compare all the offers and negotiate even better deals for you.

Cash in on Solar Incentives

Power Prices Going Up Again

Predictions from industry experts have power prices going up by another 50% in the next two years. Reliance on aging coal generators and a lack of certainty for investors in new energy generation is creating a price spiral in the National Energy Market. Expect another 15-25% increase in July this year and more in 2019.

Solar Power can minimise the amount you pay for electricity now and protect you from ongoing price rises. Some of our clients are now getting credits from their electricity supplier instead of huge bills, by following our advice and strategies. The higher that electricity prices go, the more your solar energy is worth, not only to offset charges, but also to export to the grid for profit. Find out how easy it is for you to do the same.

Match the Solar Energy to Your Power Use

Everyone is different and how you use energy needs careful consideration before just slapping a cheap package deal on your roof. Solar panels last decades, so you want to make sure your investment is sized and placed to erase your carbon footprints as much as possible.

Is it better to use solar for your hot water or use off peak from the grid? is air conditioning more efficient with panels facing East or West? We ask the right questions to get you an efficiency that gives extra value to your solar investment every day.

The Federal Government is still offering Small technology Certificates (STC’s) that greatly reduce the upfront cost of new solar panels.

Every year you get less STC’s, so it is better act now while the benefit is Sell Your Power for Profit higher.to888 Solar Tek make it easy to The solar feed in tariff is now 12-15c claim your benefit by doing all the per kWh, which means you can sell excess paperwork and trading them on your power to the grid to cover your night time behalf, giving you an up front discount energy use and daily supply charge. If you on your new solar system. The rules produce and sell enough power, the change all the time and you need the electricity company will owe you money! right equipment to get money back As prices go up you will get more and from adding solar to your home. more for the excess electricity you sell.

Get Around Network Rules

It is disappointing to find out that the network won’t let you export an unlimited amount of solar power to the grid.

However, there are many ways to benefit from producing more power and to ensure you are exporting the maximum most of the time. Our design consultants look at your total energy picture to find new tricks that you did not know about before.

If You Use Less Than 10 kWh per Day...

Install 5-8 kW of Solar Panels to Eliminate your power bill

With Feed in tariffs at 12-16c you can now sell power back to the grid as part of a strategy to minimise and eliminate power charges completely. Production from 2.5 kW of solar - about 10 panels - will offset the dreaded electricity supply charge when all the generated power is exported. You now get half as much for the power you sell as it costs you to buy from the grid. If you export enough, the rest of your power charges can be eliminated. This strategy is ideal for retirees or small households.

If You Use 10-25 kWh per Day...

Install 5-8 kW of Solar Panels and Batteries if Export is Limited

Panel Level Optimization

Every solar panel on a string affects every other panel, so one panel in shade can bring down the performance of a whole system. Tigo have now released special electronic optimizers, so shade will no longer hold back the flow of power. Tigo optimizers also allow more flexibility for fitting panels on difficult roofs, and work with any inverter.

If your roof has uneven shading, then Tigo optimizers can increase output by up to 30%. They can also be retrofitted to old panels that are shade affected, fixing any performance lag and boosting your solar power production.

Long Term Warranties

Our Solar panels have a 25 year production warranty, no moving parts and only require occasional cleaning.

They just work and keep on working for decades of reliable power production.

We choose the best brands to give you the most value and reliability in solar technology today.

Slash Your Hot Water Bill with a Sanden Eco Plus System

If Essential Energy will let you export 5 kWh or more to the grid, then stacking your The Sanden Eco Plus® Hot Water Heat roof with as many solar panels as possible will work well for you. If export is limited, consider storing extra power in a battery bank for night time use. A combination of solar Pump System use up to 80% less for export, self use maximised during the day and battery storage is a great strategy to energy than conventional electric bring your bill closer to zero for medium households with 3-4 people. water heaters.

Local News 21

Multiple changes could delay new housing estates

A new application has been recently submitted to the DP&E by the Cobaki Lakes developer in a renewed push to allow for cats to be kept within the future estate.

The application asks for cats to be permitted within the development subject to a maximum of two cats per household and a ban on cats roaming between the hours of 5pm and 6am.

In response the DP&E has asked for more information on the developer’s Environmental Impact Statement, however, further details of the application were not available at the time of print.

An application to allow for cats within the development was denied by the DP&E in 2017 after an application was submitted in 2015.

The application also sought to allow for two cats per household and to restrict their movements to indoors only between 5pm and 6am.

Cats are currently prohibited within the estate as part of the original Concept Plan, approved in 2010 to help protect biodiversity such as the Wallum Froglet, Wallum Sedge Frog, Bush Hen, Planigale and Long-Nosed Potoroo that have been found to reside at the site.

Kings Forest Koala Plan

Team Koala representatives met with executive members of the DP&E in late February to discuss their concerns with the revised Kings Forest Koala Plan of Management that is still under review.

Team Koala said the “meeting was only made possible by the remarkable number of submissions received by the Department from Team Koala members and the local community generally”.

Michael McNamara, a Team Koala committee member said the DP&E “acknowledged that the community held very significant concerns, as evidenced by the number of submissions”.

“Jenny Hayes showed them the scrapbooks, including the full-page advertisements from the developer back in 2011 in which the developer promoted their green credentials,” Mr McNamara said.

“We showed them the video footage of the Koala Awareness Walk in Kingscliff in 2017.

“We pointed out very strongly that there was support across the political divide with local Nationals state MP Geoff Provest, Greens State upper house member Dawn Walker and local Kingscliff based Councilor Ron Cooper marching.

“We raised the concerns that were in the original Team Koala submission along with a range of other concerns.

“All in all we got a good hearing.

They were obviously serious about their mission to the Tweed.”

Cobaki Lakes offset changes

The DP&E has recommended an application by the Cobaki Lakes developer to reduce offset requirements by more than eight hectares be modified.

The application sought to reduce the offset requirement for the loss of 3.8 ha of Swamp Sclerophyll Forest (SSF) Endangered Ecological Community (EEC) from 22.77 ha to 14ha and to reclassify 0.01 ha of Lowland Rainforest on Floodplain to Lowland Rainforest and reduce the onsite offset from 13.3 ha to 12.96 ha Both Council and the Office of Environment and Heritage raised concerns over the reduced offsets and the proposed reclassification of the Lowland Rainforest on Floodplain.

However, an independent review

by Ecological Australia found the offset figures were correct and there was insufficient information to reclassify the Lowland Rainforest on Floodplain.

Based on the independent review the DP&E said they did not support reducing the total offset requirements for the Swamp Sclerophyll Forest or reclassifying the Lowland Rainforest on Floodplain, however, the move to reduce Lowland Rainforest offsets by 0.34 ha is supported.

The DP&E’s recommended Terms of Approval call for the Swamp Sclerophyll Forest offset to comprise of 5.13 ha onsite offsetting, 5.13 ha of revegetation and 159 biodiversity credits to be

retired. The final decision will be determined by the Independent Planning Commission.

Private water plans withdrawn

M e a n w h i l e, t wo s e p a r a t e applications to the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) to construct private waste water treatment plants at both the Kings Forest and Cobaki Lakes developments have been withdrawn.

The applications sought to construct a waste water treatment plant and provide drinking water, recycled water and waste water collection and treatment to both estates through Northern Water Solutions, a subsidiary of Leda.

The Kings Forest treatment plant was planned to be constructed at Depot Road on residential zoned land.

Council had raised concerns over limited buffers, proximity to future housing and the town centre, as well as the use of recycled water.

Several Cobaki and Piggabeen residents were opposed to the waste water plant that was to be located at the site of the former golf driving range at 425 Piggabeen Road, with residents launching an online petition that attracting136 signatures.

NSW Health also did not support the applications as there was not enough information on how public health risks would be managed, especially in regard to the risk of contamination of drinking water.

Application for cats at Cobaki

The prior application put forward the social and mental health benefits of cats and stated that wildlife could be minimally impacted through a number of measures including a cat-proof fence, mandatory desexing, trapping programs and cat ownership education.

Tweed Shire Council did not support the keeping of cats as their monitoring had found domestic cats in bushland in areas that had nighttime cat restrictions.

Instead, Council said that only the complete prohibition of cats would be successful in protecting biodiversity.

In their previous assessment the DP&E acknowledged the benefits of keeping cats, however, recommended cats be prohibited from the site.

“The Department acknowledges there are social and health benefits associated with keeping domestic pets and these benefits must be balanced against the potential impacts on native fauna,” the DP&E’s report reads.

“Other domestic pets, such as dogs, are permitted on the site, providing opportunities for similar health and social benefits without the same level of impact on native fauna.

“The Department’s assessment therefore concludes there is insufficient evidence to demonstrate the proposed containment strategy and management measures could be effectively implemented to prevent the incursion of cats into surrounding bushland and to prevent stray cats from becoming feral.”

Tap into the wonders of natural oils

MURWILLUMBAH LOCAL Maria Rutledge is a wife, mother and DoTERRA Wellness advocate, who has been enjoying the benefits of essential oils for more than two decades.

“Using Essential Oils in my everyday life has had a big impact on myself for anxiety, immunity and my general wellbeing,” she said.

“I have also noticed great changes in my boys’ mood, focus and behaviour.”

Two years ago, Maria felt an incredible pull to start sharing her wealth of knowledge about the many amazing uses of essential oils, so she started running workshops and has never looked back.

“They have literally changed my life,” she said.

“These oils have become popular in so many households across Australia because they are natural, safe and effective with few side effects when used correctly.

“As a DoTERRA Wellness Advocate I teach people how to empower themselves with these natural, highly pure and potent essential oils.”

Maria has turned her passion into a great local business, running workshops from the Heart and Soul of Wellness centre at 49 Commercial Road, Murwillumbah.

“I’m passionate about bringing people together who wish to empower themselves with natural solutions for their health,” she said.

“Our internet-based society today can lead to isolation for some, so encouraging people

to come to classes to learn and have fun is the key to connection and a happier mind.

“I hope to inspire others to take control of their health and well-being.

“If you can’t make it to a class, that’s ok, book into a 45-minute Wellness Consultation and receive a free bottle of essential oil.”

To find out more about Maria’s essential oils give her a call: 0432 692 210 or www. mydoterra.com/naturesoilgarden, you can find Maria on Facebook and Instagram.

The money was raised at the sixth annual touch football competition, held at the Les Burger Fields at Cabarita on February 3, bringing the total funds raised to an astonishing $143 000.

Around 300 players and 20 teams took part in the event, which was named Tweed Shire Community Event of the Year at the 2018 Australia Day Awards.

One of the event organisers, Mike Ashburn said the event started as a fundraiser for a friend who was battling illness. Six local businesses came on board as major sponsors and each team also had its own sponsors “It was such a good day and an opportunity for everyone in the community to catch up and everyone wanted to keep doing it,” Mr Ashburn said.

“Local businesses have really got behind it and since then we have had the same sponsors and the same teams every year.

In this year’s retro-themed event the Bulldogs, which featured Simon and Tom Tate competing in honour of brother James, a keen surfer who tragically lost his life last year, triumphed over the Seagulls, featuring Cameron and Corey Cullen, competing in honour of their brother Justin who

died in an accident in the Maldives in 2015.

Simon Tate who emceed the presentation night said the game was a draw at full time so they dropped a player to five players on the field.

“We both scored a try so it went down to four players,” he said.

“We had one set piece to score a try when a female player threw a hail mary pass to the winger who caught the ball mid-air, dove over a defender and scored the winning try just as the first ray of sunshine on a very rainy day beamed on him.

“Everyone was just crying and embracing, it was just amazing.

Mr Tate said the presentation was really inspiring.

“You draw a lot of strength from hearing all those stories on the night and a lot of people said they don’t feel like they are alone in their struggle anymore.

“You realise that it’s okay to be sad and that it’s better not to hold all your emotions back.

“It’s been really hard since James died but I’m using my sadness as fuel to do this type of thing in the community and to share the love.

Mike Ashburn said the Charity Cup wasn’t really about the money.

“It’s more about the community’s care and support,” he said.

“The Charity Cup is so easy to run because this is a special community and everyone wants to help out.”

Cabarita Beach Bowls and Sports Club was one of the major

sponsors and director Kearen Finn, was at the presentation.

“I was overwhelmed by the experience,” Ms Finn said.

“There was so much support given to such worthy citizens of our community.

“Emotions were off the Richter Scale for everyone in attendance.

“People spoke of their spiritual journeys, touching everyone's heart and made the non-recipients feel very humble and thankful.

“Many more tissues are needed for next year, as I know there will be even more funds raised, it all ended with much love and light being spread through the room inspiring.”

Sam Ford, who is soon to participate in the Commonwealth Games Queen's Baton Relay, was one of the recipients and his mother Margaret was effusive in her praise of event organisers on social media.

“I’m so proud of these young men, of the supporting community, proud to play a part in this fine charity and so, so grateful for the help that has been given to my son over the years,” Mrs Ford said.

“The stories told last night of this year’s recipients were so heartwarming and heart-wrenching and I don’t think there was a dry eye in the house.

“Some of the recipients were people with disabilities, brain injury, paraplegia, quadriplegia, liver disease, childhood illness and disease, and cancer along with palliative care facility Wedgetail,

Recipients and organisers of the 2018 Charity Cup at the Cabarita Beach Bowls & Sports Club

John Flynn Oncology Unit and the local youth group and disabled horse riding.

“It helps so many people like my son to be able to afford things like a wheelchair.

“In the long run it all helps the cause, brings us all closer together as a community, teaches us compassion and sets a great example for our children and their children.”

Another recipient at the presentation was Caitlin Ambrose, a 21-year-old Cabarita local who was diagnosed last year with Ewing's Sarcoma, a rare type of bone and soft tissue cancer.

“It was a great opportunity to meet other families and community members who are also struggling with illness,” Caitlin said.

“It was really nice just to be able to connect with other people going through the same thing and to

meet the organisers and see how much work and dedication goes into it.

The 21-year-old Cabarita local has spent the last year travelling to Brisbane every three weeks for one week of chemotherapy.

“It’s been really hard for my family.

“Mum usually takes me up because Dad is working six days a week to support the family.

“I may need to travel overseas for treatment depending on the latest tests results and trials for new drugs are very expensive.”

Caitlin said that the money from the Charity Cup would help to meet some of the costs involved in treatment and was greatly appreciated.

“It’s really rewarding to see a community come together like this for people in need,” she said.

“It really means a lot to us.”

Brothers Football Club 60th reunion is coming MURWILLUMBAH BROTHERS Football Club are inviting members past and present to return to the iconic club for its 60th year reunion celebration on Easter Saturday, March 31 at Dorothy Street.

The Brothers Football Club disbanded in 1989, but the name has continued on through the licensed club, trading as the Murwillumbah Brothers Leagues Club.

The Murwillumbah Colts Junior Rugby League have set up their headquarters at the club for training and matches.

The Brothers Club was formed in 1957 and played their first season in 1958, with the First Grade being captained and coached in its inaugural season by Paul Broughton, making the grand final only to be defeated by the Tweed Heads All Blacks.

They won First Grade premierships in 1961, 1962 and 1969, and Reserve Grade in 1963 and 1977.

Under 18 Grade won in 1964, 1965, 1970 and 1978, and Under 16 Grade in 1986.

Local icons Ron Saddler and Cliff Boyd, both played in the 1961 and 1962 premiership sides, before going onto Sydney Eastern Suburbs.

Saddler represented NSW and Australia, touring with the Kangaroo squad in the 1960s.

Other players who came through the clubs grades and went onto Sydney, were Allan Leslight, Kel Sherry, John Dowling, Warren Crompton and Paul Donaghy.

There were numerous players who went onto play in the strong Brisbane competition, prior to the NRL competition.

All past players, coaches, officials and supporters are welcome to attend the 60th year celebrations and are encouraged to bring their photos or memorabilia from years gone by.

Enquiries can be made with Lionel Alexander on 0432 667 438 or email yowie8@hotmail.com or Bill Carroll on 0402118 403 or email carroll.007@ bigpond.com

Dolphin competition for schools TO CELEBRATE this year’s International Dolphin Day on April 14, Dolphin Research Australia is inviting schools to help conserve marine life in a new competition.

The ‘Caring 4 Dolphins & Our Oceans’ competition is asking schools to get creative and pledge an action to help conserve the marine environment.

Dolphin Research Australia is a charity dedicated to protecting and conserving the marine environment.

“Our oceans and marine life, including much loved dolphins, are under ever increasing pressure as a result of human interference and activities,” Founding Director of Dolphin Research Australia Dr Liz Hawkins said.

“The competition gives students a great chance to learn and develop their understanding of the threats the natural world and encourages students to think about what actions each one of us can do in our everyday to help conserve the life of the oceans and their habitats.”

Students are asked to create a visual message that shows the action they are going to take to care for dolphins and the ocean.

The competition is open to primary and high schools in Northern NSW and South East Qld. Dr Hawkins said there is over $950 worth of great prizes for the winning schools which include some great nature books for the school library from competition sponsors CSIRO Publishing, Footprint Books and Pascal Publishing.

The winning class or school will also have the opportunity to name and adopt a dolphin from their region.

“As part of our long-term research projects, we have got to know many dolphins up and down the coast,” Dr Hawkins said.

“It is a special opportunity for the winning school to name and symbolically adopt their own wild dolphin that lives along the coast nearby.”

Entries close 5pm, April 10. For more information about the competition and how to enter, head to www. dolphinresearchaustralia.org

Kingscliff park to open AFTER MORE than 14 months of reconstruction the fences surrounding the new Rowan Robinson Park on the foreshore of Kingscliff will be removed from today (Thurday, March 22) and Tweed Shire Council will almost completely open the park for public access.

Council said in a media statement that work would continue on the community hall and amenities, but otherwise the park would be open.

Council’s Manager of Recreation Services Stewart Brawley said the park opening marks the completion of the $22-million Kingscliff Foreshore Revitalisation project which aimed to transform the beachfront area.

“With the power supply issues finally sorted out, the main section of Rowan Robinson Park in Kingscliff is set to be open later this week,” Mr Brawley said “Council is liaising with the Federal Government to confirm a date for the official opening which will probably be later in April.

“It is anticipated that the refurbishment works on the hall and amenities will be finalised by June.”

Work began on the revitalisation, which also included the construction of a seawall and the upgrade of Kingscliff Beach Holiday Park, last January after nearly 20 years of community discussion on the subject.

It was completed with the assistance of a $9.81 million grant through the Federal Government’s National Stronger Regions fund with the balance coming from the Tweed Coast Holiday Parks Trust and Council.

The new park will incorporate quotes submitted by residents about Kingscliff, carved into pavers and set into the landscape, and has been designed to directly connect the beachfront area to the centre of the community.

It was named just last month to honour Rowan Robinson, a former surf life saver and

NOW AVAILABLE FOR HIRE Crane Truck for Deliveries

Kingscliff High School student who lost his life serving with Australian forces in Afghanistan.

Council have also formally committed to acknowledging the local Goodjinburra Clan within the park and will work with the Aboriginal Advisory Committee to finalise the details.

Mr Brawley said the improvements to recreational areas of Kingscliff will now continue with the focus moving just a little bit to the south.

“We will now turn our attention to the upgrade of Lions Park where we will commence community engagement in the coming weeks, with the aim of having works finished before Christmas 2018,” he said.

Foodworks Murwillumbah closes

MURWILLUMBAH RESIDENTS have expressed shock and sadness after the sudden closure of Foodworks Murwillumbah this week.

While it was unknown the specific date that Foodworks set up under the Regent Cinema, several locals told The Weekly that site has been a supermarket for decades.

The owners of the supermarket posted on social media on Tuesday, March 20, that a sudden change of business plans had resulted in the closure. “ D e a r c u s t o m e r s o f Fo o dwo r k s Murwillumbah, unfortunately due to a sudden change of business plan, the owner has needed to close the doors of Foodworks for now,” the post reads.

“We have donated over $30,000 worth of perishable stock to the Murwillumbah Community Centre in last hope of helping out our local community.

“We would like to sincerely apologise to everyone especially our loyal regular customers for the sudden change.

“Until further notice, Foodworks will be closed for business. Thank you.”

The post resulted in several messages of support and thanking the business owner(s) for their donation.

“Sad to hear, always had the best bananas there,” one post reads.

“Very sorry to hear this. Thank you very much for your amazing donation. Hopeful the situation that led to this improves and you are able to reopen,” another post reads.

Several local school-age students are also expected to be out of the job, however it was unknown at the time of print how many employees would lose their positions.

THE TWEED Shire has joined one of more than 50 NSW locations highlighted in a new State Government video aimed at promoting the state to the international film industry this month.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said it was no surprise that the region starred as one of the most scenic and interesting areas of the state.

“I am delighted that Tweed is being marketed on the world stage, because the potential gains for our region are enormous,” Mr Provest said.

“Over the last two years, the Government’s Made in NSW fund has generated more than $300 million in production expenditure and almost 10,000 jobs.

“Much of this is spent in the regions and provides value for many years to come through increased tourism.”

The video will be used by arts, screen and culture agency Create NSW on an ongoing

basis to promote the state to domestic and international filmmakers.

Meanwhile, the Tweed will benefit from an influx of more than 150 delegates when the region hosts the 2018 Australian Regional Tourism (ART) Convention for the first time in October.

The 2018 ART Convention will be held on the Tweed from October 23 to October 25.

Mr Provest said the convention will provide the perfect opportunity to showcase the Tweed’s business event capabilities to highprofile delegates.

“With our state-of-the art business facilities, fresh local produce, beautiful beaches and World Heritage rainforest, we are delighted that the spotlight will be on Tweed this October as key decision makers from around Australia gather for the ART Convention,” Mr Provest said.

Never too old to learn new tricks

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE local Patricia Knox is proof that you’re never too old to learn, after she completed her Masters Degree in Arts and Philosophical Studies at the age of 88 and will celebrate her 90th birthday this year.

Patricia was born in Griffith, NSW in 1928. Her maternal grandparents were Hungarian immigrants, while her paternal grandparents lived in Ireland.

She spent her very early years in Ireland before returning to live in Hurstville, Sydney with her mother and maternal grandparents.

Her grandfather was the captain of a coastal steamer while her mother, Linda, worked as a nurse. Patricia said she was brought up with her aunts and uncles who seemed more like siblings.

“My first schooling was at Greenwich Point School in North Sydney followed

by Neutral Bay Girls Junior High,” she said.

Patricia left school at 15 even though she was dux of her year, but she had not studied Latin which was a prerequisite for further studies at university at the time.

She would have liked to become a doctor but life got in the way and she

One of Patricia’s art works

went on to marry Wallace Knox when she was 19 and moved to Perth in 1951.

Her husband was entitled to a war service home which was located at Scarborough, Western Australia.

After the marriage failed, Patricia’s mother paid out the loan and the home was transferred to Patricia even though she had not had any war service.

She was the first woman to achieve this and Patricia’s mother moved into the home to assist with the children.

Patricia had three children by then, two daughters and a son, and worked as a teacher’s aide to support them.

“I studied to become a teacher and achieved this in 1970, continuing on with a Bachelor of Education in 1980,” she said.

Patricia became a Deputy Principal at Esperance in 1986 where her daughter Suzanne was subsequently appointed as a teacher.

Patricia spent 30 years with her partner Ben Joy and they experienced many happy times travelling and sailing around Western Australia.

Patricia developed a new interest in watercolours after visiting the Kimberleys and her home is adorned with her artwork.

In her mid-eighties, Patricia wanted to expand her mind through a closer study of philosophy and how that has shaped the world of today.

“So, I embarked on a course at The University of Notre Dame, Australia’s School of Philosophy and Theology on the Fremantle campus,” she said.

“I was looking for something to stimulate my mind in an academic way in addition to my other various hobbies.

“I thoroughly enjoyed interacting with students in their early years and I was awarded a Master of Arts Degree in Philosophical Studies in 2016 at the age of 88.”

Two years ago, Patricia decided to sell her house in WA and relocate to Tweed Heads nearer to her daughter’s home.

At that time, her studies were not quite completed so Patricia finished her last two units externally to obtain her degree.

Afterwards, Patricia looked for local opportunities and joined U3A Twin Towns and the Coolangatta Senior Citizens Centre. She plays table tennis, indoor carpet bowls and bridge and enjoys the Poets and Writers group.

Patricia is currently re-reading some of the classics such as Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities and may consider writing herself.

Murwillumbah Mustangs A-Grade side defeated Ballina 28 to 20 on Sunday, March 18, during a trail match.

THE EXPERTS have been shown up! After Round 2 the five undefeated teams are the Dragons, Warriors, Panthers, Tigers and the Knights.

The Knights vs Canberra game was a ripper on Sunday night and they have started the season nicely needing only one more win to equal last years efforts.

The Tigers are the big surprise packet having knocked off premiership favourites the Roosters and the Storm in consecutive weeks.

Whatever coach Cleary has done out Leichardt way is obviously working. Speaking of Cleary, gee the young fella has some sort of a future whether it be at the foot of the mountains or elsewhere but he’s a real talent.

I was lucky enough to have a bit to do with Nathan during the Australian Schoolboys in 2016 and he was an absolute standout talent and young man.

The Panthers might need to work on their starts though and sort out what’s going wrong - they will be known as Chatuauqua soon if they don’t start leaving the gates better.

The Derby was another ripper game as it always is and the Broncos had lady luck on their side to sneak away with a good victory. However, I have no doubt the Cowboys will be towards the top of the table come September and

the Broncos needed the big rivalry to bring out the best in them. I’m pretty sure that goalpost is regulation size also!

Parramatta? That was nothing short of diabolical. Full credit to Manly as the DCE led Eagles exploded in searing heat and the Eels had no answer. Has the pre season burnt them out? Has Jarryd’s arrival upset the apple cart? Have they been reading the papers too much? I’m not sure but that was sub par and not NRL standard. The worrying thing is they play the sharks who will be desperate and one of these two teams will be winless after three rounds.

The Greg Inglis racial incident is not a good look. I love a good sledge but when it becomes discriminatory it’s going too far. Greg is a role model for the Indigenous community and there is no place for that rubbish in sport. Was great to get down to the House of Pain Saturday to watch some footy live with three good contests between Murwillumbah and Ballina in what is shaping up to be a great NRRRL season.

Another great weekend of Rugby League is nearly here.

The high school careers advisor, Beth Matsuto, said she’d love to have tradies and all sorts of workers come in to share their experiences with students in the 20-minute talks.

“Work experience has been shown to only work for a small number of people who already know what they want to do,” Ms Matsuto told The Weekly.

“Research shows it’s better to be exposed to a lot of different things.

“In the new paradigm where students will have five or six different careers it’s good to expose them to a lot of different ideas and possibilities.

“I’m a big believer in it taking a village to raise a child, so the more people we get in to give them views on life the more rounded our students will be.

“Students choose to attend, they’re not forced to come so hopefully we’re reaching children who want to know more and to be more.”

Year 10 student Georgia Fowler has attended some of the talks and said it has helped her to decide which career path she wanted to take.

“A nurse came and gave an insight into working in a hospital and how nice it was seeing people get better,” Georgia said.

“It helped me to decide that I want to do something in the medical or veterinary field. It was that idea of seeing people or animals get better.

“It’s a hard choice because I love animals, but it helps me to choose

Kingscliff High School Careers Advisor Beth Matsuto with Year 10 student Ella Maynard

subjects for Year 11 and 12 that leave both options open.

“I’d love to hear from a veterinary surgeon, another nurse and a lawyer, just to give me more of an idea.”

Year 10 student Ella Maynard said the talks were a great learning experience and gave students a good idea about different careers.

“I really liked the social worker that came and spoke to us that worked with children with disabilities and also the nurse,” Ella told The Weekly.

“I’m interested in becoming a public speaker and would like to hear about that because I have no idea how you would go about it.

“I’d love to hear from a midwife as well.”

Career Capers have already featured a podiatrist, a doctor, a filmmaker, a hairdresser, an IT entrepreneur, a real estate agent and a Sustainable Agriculture officer from Tweed Shire

Council but Ms Matsuto said they can have the same career twice.

“There is no limit to who we want to come in,” she said.

I’d like some builders and tradies, even though I know it’s hard with time pressures, but we’d love the kids to be exposed to all sorts of occupations.

“People can just come in and talk about their work and answer questions or they can do a more formal presentation.

“You don’t know how your story will affect students.

“You could be the one that changes a student’s life in the best way.”

Career Capers will run on April 10, May 24 and June 14 between 2pm and 3.15pm.

If anyone is interested, they can email Beth Matsuto on BETHWYN. MATSUTO@det.nsw.edu.au or phone Beth at Kingscliff High School on 02 66749777.

Outstanding result at shave event TWO BRAVE locals Tanya Booth and Simon Bain took part in the World’s Greatest Shave event at a special fundraiser hosted by the Riverview Hotel on Saturday, March 17.

Tanya and Simon both stepped up to the challenge with Tanya shaving her head to a number zero and Simon shaving his much-loved beard.

The fundraiser attracted dozens of locals and raffle prizes donated from local businesses gave their efforts an extra boost towards their goal of $5,000.

“What a super afternoon, we certainly are blessed to be a part of such an amazing community,” Tanya said following the event.

“Simon and I would like to thank everyone that has supported this great cause.

“The afternoon was a huge success and a big thank you goes to Tony, Josh and the crew from the Riverview Hotel for hosting the World’s Greatest Shave.

“As a result, we have reached our target of $5,000 and then some.”

Tanya said she also wanted to thank the Murwillumbah Mustangs Club, who collected money for the shave event during their trial match on Saturday.

“Also a massive thank you to all the local businesses who kindly donated raffle prizes - overwhelmed is an understatement,” she said.

“Lastly to the community, family and friends who have all been so supportive since we decided to do this over 12 months ago, thank you, thank you, thank you.

“As of today (Tuesday, March 20) the total so far is a massive $5,368.

“Thanks again everybody - what a super effort, much love from the not so hairy Simon and Tanya.”

A highlight for Kingscliff’s Bronte Perkinson was watching Steph Gilmore perform with Ruby Fields and then chatting with her after her show.

First Drop Festival a winner

THE INAUGURAL Drop Festival, held on Saturday March 17, has been declared a resounding success by organisers.

The event, the first of three festivals which follow the World Surf League Australian competition leg from Coolangatta to Margaret River and Bells Beach, was a sell-out with around 4,000 people attending.

“It was a fantastic day, amazing weather, incredible artists and the festival site was stunning,” a festival spokesperson told The Weekly.

“The overall feedback has been incredibly positive and we’re already working on our plans to return next year.

“The crowd were very well behaved.

“Everyone was there to have a good time and a good time was had by all.

The spokesperson said that some of the WSL team and athletes attended and had a great time.

“A highlight was Steph Gilmore joining Ruby Fields on stage to play her single ‘I Want’.”

Bronte Perkinson from Kingscliff attended the event and said it was really good fun.

“I’m a singer songwriter and it was pretty inspiring,” Bronte said.

“There was a good crowd and everyone said it was pretty well organised for the first time.

“Most festivals are in Brisbane and Byron and they’re quite far away and a lot bigger where this felt like a high school reunion.

“You could go by yourself and you’d run into friends everywhere.

“Even Splendour is so big but this was like having it in your own backyard with your mates.”

A highlight for Bronte was seeing Stephanie Gilmore perform with Ruby Fields.

“It was my biggest girl crush dream because I love them both and I went and chatted to Steph afterwards and she was so lovely.

“It was definitely a bit of a surfer crowd and a platform for like-minded people.

“It felt really intimate which I liked.”

Momentum Festival sponsors needed CABARITA YOUTH Service is putting the call out for sponsors for the Momentum Youth Festival, which will run at Cabarita Skate Park on Saturday, April 21 as part of National Youth Week.

The festival is a fundraiser for the service and will feature bands, food trucks, professional skating exhibitions, scooter and skate expression sessions and giant bubble soccer.

Youth worker and festival coordinator Chris Hitchcock said that funding provided

by Tweed Shire Council covered the cost of running the event but sponsors were still needed.

“We’re looking for businesses and organisations to get behind our local youths,” Mr Hitchcock told The Weekly.

“Cabarita Youth Service (CYS) is doing some amazing services with the local youth and uses the event to raise funds to keep the service running as it’s a non-government funded community organisation run by volunteers.

“For example we ran a Community Connections program which had a dozen

youths undertake a day at TAFE and 15 hours a week with a local host employer and half of those young people are still working.

“CYS provided them with funding for training, work clothes and special equipment and job-specific certificates so that is the sort of things a lot of our money go towards.

“Programs like these are specifically targeted to the more disadvantaged in our community to make a difference in their lives.

“On the day we have a lot of Tweed-based youth services there like Headspace, the Family Centre so it will be a good opportunity to not only have fun but to see what services are out there.”

Mr Hitchcock said the event provides great exposure for sponsors and shows they are a community-minded business .

“We have a business sponsorship pack which tells potential sponsors about the advantages of becoming a sponsor,” he said.

Anyone interested in becoming a sponsor, making a donation or becoming involved can contact CYSS Youth Worker and event organiser Chris Hitchcock on: 0423 872 870 .

THE UKI Post Office has undergone an incredible transformation this year and has announced the second of Art Post Uki’s unique “Artist of the Month” exhibitions which opens today (Thursday, March 22) and runs until Wednesday, April 25.

Heather McClelland’s “Bold Yet Tender” exhibition is inspired by the local geography and takes in an eclectic mix of portraiture, life drawing and landscape.

The works on display at Art Post Uki are part of her new series “Contours of the Caldera”.

“I enjoy creating layers in my work, playing with colour and print effects,” Heather said.

“In my search for form and perspective surprises often spring to life on the canvas.”

Heather and her husband Bryan arrived in Uki in 2010 and have cemented a place for themselves within the local community through art, refugee advocacy and music.

Heather has had a career as secondary teacher and therapist, and taught for eight years in Bangladesh, where she and Bryan formed an ongoing relationship with an NGO called Symbiosis.

The Uki Refugee Project and Symbiosis support marginalised women in the north of Bangladesh and profits from sales of Heather’s work go to that organisation.

“Our first Artist of the Month exhibition featuring artist Matt Ottley proved to be a wonderful success, and we anticipate that Heather McClelland’s Bold Yet Tender will be equally as popular,” Post Master of Art Post Uki, Gary Wall said.

“This is a wonderful village with a fascinating and diverse history and we have so many talented artists in the area,” Gary said.

“It seemed a great idea to use the Post Office as a unique space to expose their work to our local residents and to the many visitors that come here, plus we make great coffee.”

The historic Post Office in the village of Uki, now provides a unique space for local artists and their work, while continuing as a full-service Post Office.

Thinking outside the square, the new Post Master Gary Wall along with local artist and Curator, Susan Kinneally have created an interactive experience for both the local community and visitors.

Gary has sympathetically renovated the heritage listed building, introduced monthly art exhibitions and provides boutique coffee.

The community is invited to join Art Post Uki as they officially launch the second Artist of the Month from 6pm today (Thursday, March 22).

FILMS th Mia wi

PHANTOM THREAD Careful what you wish for. This could be the message behind Phantom Thread, the new film by Paul Thomas Anderson.

As in his previous film The Master, Anderson is interested in portraying complicated human relationships and the extent to which we can pursue them. In Phantom Thread the plot revolves around a sort of peculiar ‘threesome’ where a man, his lover and his sister engage not in sexual relationship activity together, but rather in a power game.

Three formidable characters in their own right, they are people with very strong personalities but equally deep weaknesses. He is Reynolds Woodcock, a couturier in London in the 1950s, who in the difficult post-WWII atmosphere manages to carve out for himself space for luxury and indulgence. She is Alma, a young and attractive girl with a foreign accent, who goes from waitressing in a restaurant to becoming the new muse of the obsessive and handsome Reynolds. Cyril is Reynold’s sister, the epitome of the spinster who is looking after her brother, his creative endeavors and their fashion business with such intensity that she becomes an agent in Reynolds’s romantic relationships.

The film weaves a narrative that is intriguing to say the least, with winners and losers alternating in a power game that becomes increasingly more intense and dangerous. The film boasts great performances by all three protagonists including - according to his own statement - the last performance of Daniel Day Lewis. The actor, who follows strictly the method-acting technique, apparently for this film insisted on meeting the actress Vicky Krieps - who plays Alma – only while ‘in character’, so rather than rehearsing together the two met only when the cameras were rolling, on set. It must have been a most thrilling (and scary) experience for the whole crew on the film set…!

By Madeleine Murray THE MURWILLUMBAH Potters are gearing up for MAT18 with great enthusiasm as twelve members will be taking part in this year’s event under the theme ‘Moving On’.

At first, there was some apprehension about the show. Is pottery art? Are potters artisans or artists? How do I make pottery with a Moving On theme?

Then, gradually, each potter began to understand the broad, profound possibilities of the theme, to get excited about making work with a concept, and using clay combined with other media.

Each of the club’s 35 members has a distinct style and technique. One person makes fairy houses; one makes classic Japanese pots; another paints intricate designs on huge vases, another sculpts women’s bodies.

The 12 potters in MAT18 are each tackling the theme in a unique way. Each Moving On work will be displayed on a plinth, in a row in the middle of the room, surrounded by tables with other works.

Veteran potter Ann Lee said her piece evolved while working her magic.

“You’ll have to wait for the exhibition to see it,” she said.

“It’s a big sculpture using glass and clay, reflecting the reinvention of creativity after disaster.

“It also pays homage to the reasons why we have to move on from disaster.”

Shirley Featherstone has been making exquisite, classical pots, tea sets, tajines and big bowls for more than 40 years and Moving On is a new challenge for her.

“Because of the movement in the clay, I wanted to just keep it going, to have it feel

like it’s bursting. I’m firing it with some glaze but mainly natural clay,” she said.

“It’s looking like something from nature and I’m pleased with the look from all angles. I think it’s moving on into the springsummer feeling.”

Madeleine Murray is using mixed media for her interactive piece, Requiem for a Bat which she said is going to make a small funeral pyre for a micro-bat skeleton in resin on a rusted wire platform, coming out of a wood-fired clay sculpture.

“You can use a magnifying glass to look at the tiny skeleton more closely,” she said.

President Robyn Porritt said she’s working on two pieces for the Moving On concept and will decide which one to put in later.

The club is lucky to have several experienced potters who love to share their expertise and experience.

Porritt, a retired occupational therapist who lives on a macadamia farm outside Bangalow, learned to pot as a young woman.

“I have come and gone from it over the years,” she said.

“Each time I return to the medium I do a different body of work.

“It reflects where my life is and I’m really interested in glazes, glaze techniques, and primitive firings.

“I love teaching and I give wheel classes here.”

Past-president and founding member Ann Lee said she has developed a long-term relationship with clay.

“When I discovered clay, I knew I was hooked,” she said.

“I’ve been a potter with varying degrees of intensity for more than 40 years.

“I have a passion for passing that on to new potters – that passion to be able to create, and to lose yourself in something so peaceful, in our busy world.

Lee, and other experienced potters, attends the club from 10am to 3pm every Wednesday and Friday to help anyone with advice and tips.

She also does all the firings as the gas kiln is a complex beast that requires constant supervision and adjustment for 12 hours.

The group holds classes, workshops and pottery sales at the 100-year-old schoolhouse in the idyllic open woodland forest about 2km down the Fernvale Road, 8km south of Murwillumbah.

Murwillumbah Golf Club viewing deck opens

Murwillumbah Golf Club secretary manager Gary Thatcher and Club chef Victor

MURWILLUMBAH GOLF Club has officially opened a new viewing deck that not only offers some of the best panoramic views of any golf course in Australia but has also significantly expanded the club’s overall size.

Murwillumbah Golf Club secretary manager Gary Thatcher caught up with The Weekly on Tuesday following an official opening night on Sunday, March 18.

Mr Thatcher said the viewing deck has

added about 200 square metres to the club and took about four months to complete.

“We also used local trades people to carry out the work,” he said.

“As the club has been growing the new viewing deck gives the club more space and spreads the crowd more.

“We also needed an outdoor area and we’re extremely pleased with the results.”

To find out more about the new viewing deck visit 233 Byangum Rd, Murwillumbah, or phone (02) 6672 1799.

another big success

THE TWEED Coast Holiday Parks Kingscliff Triathlon welcomed more than 1,100 athletes plus more than 2,500 supporters from across NSW and Qld for the State Championships in Triathlon on Sunday, March 18.

Despite worries leading into the event about potential weather problems and poor water quality in the creek, the race went start to finish with favourable race conditions, according to Kingy Tri organisers NX Sports.

“Race organisers convened an Athlete Advisory Panel two weeks ahead of race day and the changes made ensured great racing on the day, particularly a fast swim with clear water quality,” race director Mike Crawley said.

Competition was very tight in the elite categories with the Men’s Open category won by Ben Cook, followed closely behind by former winners Adam Gordon (second) and Dan Stein (third).

Local favourite Jack Orr from Tumbulgum and member of the Tweed Valley Triathletes Club finished fifth overall.

The Women’s Open category was won by Madi Roberts.

Holly Grice and Alli Cooke finished second and third respectively.

Road closures on the cycle course north of Seaview Street from Marine Parade to Chinderah finished at 10.15am, and all roads were open by 12.15pm.

The event’s official charity is the Cudgen Headland Surf Life Saving Club and organisers also helped raise funds for a number of other community groups including Murwillumbah Scout Group, Tweed Coast Raiders JRL, Currumbin Dragons, Pottsville and District Men’s Shed, Rotary Club of Tweed Heads South, Kingscliff TAFE and Casuarina Rugby Club.

It is projected that more than $7,000 will be raised for local charities, community groups, and the employment of local young people as a result.

Organisers wanted to extend their deepest “thank you” to locals and businesses for working with the event despite any inconvenience caused by road closures.

Featured Business Rose’s Mobile Cuts. Hi everyone, I’m Rose and I have 40+ years’ experience in hairdressing. My partner and I moved to Murwillumbah 15 months ago from Mudgee NSW, where I lived for 36 years and had my own salon for 23 years.

It was very successful and stable (I think it was the longest running salon in Mudgee) that says something. I had a great Clientele like family because I’d been doing their hair for many years.

We have been coming to the area a long time as I’ve a sister and two brothers in the Tweed/ Northern Rivers area.

Nine years ago we purchased a house in Murwillumbah with the intent to move here. We love the town, people are extremely friendly, a great community and 25 mins to the beach instead of 4 hours, which is a big difference.

Being Closer to family is wonderful, we’re able to catch up more often and

seeing great nieces and great nephews growing up, they know us now which is great.

Since coming here, I became a Volunteer at Nortec two days a week and love that. Back in October I volunteered at the Community WellBeing Day cutting hair, “Big Al” in photo (everyone knows Al) one of Murbah’s local identities was one of many that day and I thoroughly enjoyed it. That’s when I decided to go mobile and fill in the gap. Some people can’t get to the hairdressers because they are house bound, incapacitated, just come out of the hospital and not feeling the best, lots of reasons or would just like a haircut in their own home for convenience.

Affordable Prices for Men, Women and Children.

So, Don’t forget to call / text Rose on 0413 846 509.

Well here is the deal.... Come and talk to us. We will not only structure a support and remuneration package that will suit you, but we will put it in writing, not to be altered for at least 2 years.

You will have brilliant support for your growth endeavours AND the knowledge, that you can grow as fast as you like and we will not change the goal posts.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Bowls Notes THE 2018 “Compass Shield” and “Schipp Shield” tournaments conducted at East Lismore over the weekend between Northern Rivers East, Northern Rivers West, Clarence River and Tweed Byron Districts produced a great day of entertaining bowls from all quarters.

With the Compass Shield formulated for the over 60s group being the platform for selections in the Zone One squad to contest the State Inter-Zone Championships in May, competition was fierce across the greens.

Following a tough day in the paddocks the Tweed Byron guys were relegated to third place in this comp.

Graeme Condi (S) supported by Gary Rendell, Dave Crow and Neil McLeod struggled in their games against Clarence River and Northern Rivers East going down severely in both contests.

However, Round 3 against Northern Rivers West resulted in the lads coming to the fore and took the lead after four ends, continue on strongly, then close the game five shots up.

Peter Duncan (S) with Greg Barrack, Ken Coyte and Peter Kelly were unlucky to go down by two shots against Clarence River.

Round 2 against NRE was a real toughie.

Whilst having control for the first 11 ends, a resurgence from the opposition over the final four ends was their undoing.

Round 3 against NRW was a success after they look the lead on the fourth end.

Holding well and playing strongly the team claimed victory with a 12 shot surplus.

Last team on the list, and most definitely not least, comprised of John Turner (S), Terry Lee, Wayne Bartlett and Bill Creedon. These lads would have to be the “A” team of the comp following their grand performance.

Winning all three games in fine style (Clarence River 13-11; Northern Rivers East 18-9; and Northern Rivers West 20-11) they have done themselves and the District proud.

Congratulations to our district bowlers Terry Lee, John Turner, Ken Coyte, Steve Massey, Greg Barrack, and Peter Duncan who have made the short list of 16 players up for selection in the Zone One squad to contest the State Inter-Zone Championships in May. Final squad selection will take place at Cherry Street Ballina tomorrow.

The annual Inter District Challenge for the Schipp Shield for Division 3 and 4 pennant players also had our chaps work hard.

Mick’s Last Shot at Bell’s Slater Pulls Out WELL MICK Fanning is about to surf his final event at Bell’s Beach this Easter. A complete circle for Mick, having won his first event at Bell’s Beach as a wildcard in 2001, and wouldn’t it be great to see him wrap it up with a win as well.

It will be a big party down at Bells, they know how to party down there, and it will be huge. Mick is good enough to be on tour as long as he wants, but it is great to see him go out at a time of his own choosing.

Choosing may not be a thing soon for Kelly Slater. His foot injury still has not healed, and he has withdrawn from Bell’s as well as the first event here on the Gold Coast. It was expected he would be ready to go at Snapper, but he has decided that he will wait until he is fully recovered. Whenever that is...

“I think it’s best that I properly rehabilitate the injury and choose to surf wholeheartedly. I’ll be back when the time is right,” Slater said.

South African surfer Michael February will replace Slater at

Northern Rivers West and Northern Rivers East teams with solid margins.

The Clarence River contest had Tweed Byron leading with a comfy margin as at eight ends.

A super battle ensued to game end with team Montgomery being pipped at the post by one little shot. Great performance from this team.

Jeff McDonald (S), Terry Fuller, Glen Brown and Brendan Sheppard found the going hard suffering defeat in their first two rounds.

Round 3 against Clarence River and the lads fired up to take the game three shots up. Good recovery from these guys.

Tapped in to the waves

With Terry Tappa’ Teece

Bells where he will face standouts Filipe Toledo and Griffin Colapinto in Round One. February will become an official Championship Tour (CT) member after the Rip Curl Pro - due to Mick Fanning’s retirement.

The 17-year-veteran will be competing for the last time at this year’s Bells Beach event, making the Margaret River Pro February’s first event as a CT member. But, due to Slater’s injury, February has started his season earlier than expected surfing as a replacement for the first two events of the season.

Despite the recent shakeup, the South African was able to keep composure and eliminate former Gold Coast winner Matt Wilkinson at the Quiksilver Pro Gold Coast last week, making a name for himself prior to his cemented arrival.

“It’s a weird way to get on the CT - it’s cheesy, but I guess everything happens for a reason,” said February.

Sailor Jerry Surftag at Cabarita

The Sailor Jerry National Surftag is coming to Cabarita for the regional finals on April 14 and 15. Teams from Coffs Harbour to Noosa will be looking to fill the six places for the National Finals to be held at Duranbah Beach on April 27 and 28.

The Tag Team format is exciting to watch, and the Surftag Series has been running for nearly 20 years. Local clubs Cabarita and Kingscliff Boardriders will be looking to rattle the cages of the big guns of Snapper Rocks, Coffs Harbour and company, and get their own spot in the finals. Having the event on their home turf should be just the ticket for the locals, both Kingscliff and Cabarita have great teams, if everything clicks both should make the finals.

It will be an exciting event, so get down to Cabarita Beach and check it out.

Richie Northcott (S), Bulla Burton, Mark Holtom and Jim Field notched up a good win against NRD followed on by a narrow winning margin in Round 2 against Northern Rivers East.

Round 3 against Clarence River saw the lads on 13-0 down after six ends. They then collected 11 shots to Clarence River’s three over the remaining nine ends. Great comeback, just a wee bit late.

Final Results for the Schipp Shield – Clarence River 6 + 66; Tweed Byron 4 + 17: Northern Rivers East 2 - 31; Northern Rivers West 0-52.

Cudgen Comets growing

By Jill Davies SINCE ITS inception in the early 1980s the Cudgen Comets have grown into one of the largest in the Tweed competition.

The club will be fielding 14 teams in the Saturday competition and one senior team who will compete on a Monday evening.

The Saturday teams cover a range of players from 12 to 16year olds. While our younger members will be participating in a learning program titled Net Set Go. Here they will learn through fun, the skills to enable them to progress into competition games.

Many of the players once again have been selected to represent the Tweed Association in the coming season, a fact the club is very proud of.

The players are carefully and fairly graded into the team we feel will enable them to experience the best outcome.

This we feel is important as it gives confidence to those players who may be new to the

game, who sometimes feel a bit apprehensive.

A meet and greet was held on Sunday, March 11. This enabled players to meet with their coaches, and in some cases to meet each other for the first time.

The time was also used to organise training sessions, and for the parents to become familiar with the coaches.

A round robin was held at Arkinstall Park on Saturday, April 17, which, due to the large number of teams registered with Tweed Netball was used for grading purposes.

This was the first time many of the Cudgen girls had played together as a team.

Reports from our coaches were very positive. All were more than happy with their team’s performances.

Cudgen Netball offers specialist coaching sessions during the season to which all players are invited.

We hope that all players enjoy their netball experience by learning new skills and make friendships that will last a life time.

Cat and mouse chase to the finish

IT LOOKED like just another blue sky beautiful day on the Tweed but beneath the surface of paradise the odds were against any chance of an easy race for the 16 TVSC boats and 31 crew sailing last Sunday.

The race start time was in the strongest part of the big ebb tide with a light, unpredictable easterly wind dancing round the skippers.

If they got caught in a lull the tide dragged them backwards until the wind returned. The “zigzag” part of the course in front of the start tent caused the most headaches with mistimed tacking leading to many attempts to round the buoys – no doubt very entertaining for those on shore. Those that got it right found themselves way out in front of their rivals.

This was the last chance for the NS14’s and Lasers to move up the ranks in their Class Championships – everything hinged on the results of this final race for them.

First the Lasers. The last battle of the year for Laser Grandmasters John Hayward (Fingal) and Gary McCrohon (Tyalgum).

John had the lead after the first lap after Gary got stuck in a strong tide and disappearing wind on the first leg on the north side of the river but by the end of the second lap Gary

was one second ahead and despite all effort from John he had to concede defeat to Gary at the finish. Third was Kate Yeomans and fourth Peter Redmond.

The NS14 fleet was led by a cat and mouse race between Glenn Slight and Kynan Luescher on “Radical Phase” and Bill Fenelon and Taj Krasna on “Tornado”.

After being only metres apart for most of the race it was the choice to take different routes to the last buoy rounding that finally saw Tornado gain water and they finished in 96 min 22 secs – over a minute in front of Radical Phase.

Adam Hurt and Tom Busbridge in the lead on the start line took third and David Robsinson and son Hugh were fourth.

The Corsairs were led by Mark Reynolds and Craig Foley on “Keenas” for most of the race – the only other Corsair to finish was Melita III skippered by Alison Blatcher and Marg Walgers and Bernadette crewing.

Division 2 racing for the slower boats is set to take off next season with Rainer Glasker and Tara Beth in the clubs yellow Access dinghy inviting more boats to join them.

18 kids attended earlier in the day at the Juniors session with a sail up to Tony’s island

and back. TVSC under 18 sailors Taj Krasna, Max Hennessy (both from Fingal Head) and Isaac Poulsen (Burringbar) spent the previous weekend crewing on Corsairs at the Big River SC Regatta swapping from helming to hauling up spinnakers to “hiking out” getting covered in spray returning with many tales to tell.

Tweed teams make LJ Hooker League final

By Jo Kennett TWO TWEED Shire 1st grade cricket teams have made it into the finals of the Two Day LJ Hooker League, after winning their semi-finals on Sunday, March 18.

Cudgen Cricket Club beat Lennox Head at Kingscliff and Pottsville Beach Cricket snatched a victory from Tintenbar at Ballina to put them head to head in the finals on March 25 and 26.

Cudgen won the toss and elected to bat first.

Heath Wilson was the star of the innings compiling 120, supported by captain Jamie Wilson who came to the crease at 4/80.

The pair put on 90 runs for the fifth wicket before the tail wagged with Lachlan Wylie and Tim Spencer getting the total to 288.

Cudgen began well taking an early

wicket before opening bowler Caleb Ziebell broke down with a side strain and didn’t bowl for the rest of the game.

“James Julius had to shoulder the load when we lost Caleb and he toiled away all day and did an exceptional job,” Cudgen captain Jamie Wilson said.

“We got two wickets Saturday afternoon and Lennox Head was 2/60 going into Sunday.

“Their third and fourth order batsmen were their best players and they batted exceptionally well right through the first hour and deep into the second on Sunday until just before lunch opening bowler James Julius got Andrew Lindsay LBW. “That was a big breakthrough.

“After lunch Connor Ziebell got two quick wickets which turned the game and then Terry Wilson, Anthony Kershler and James Julius cleaned up the tail.

“We’ve made the final a couple of times but this was my first year as captain so it was a relief to get the win.

The Cudgen 2nd and 3rd grade teams also won through to the finals, making it a clean sweep for the club.

Pottsville Beach had their backs against the wall in the late stages of the two-day game, at 4/189 and chasing 262 to win the semi-final against Tintenbar.

They stole the win with 9 wickets down, Jayden Hoare top scoring with 110 runs, while Adam Rogers got 55.

Pottsville Beach Cricket Club president Oscar van Megchelen joined Ryan McCloy at the crease still needing 24 runs with only one wicket in hand.

“We got down to needing four runs to win and Ryan edged the ball through the slips and we were running hard and as I turned for the

third I heard Ryan screaming and I knew it had gone for four and we had won the game,” van Megchelen said.

“The whole team charged the field and jumped all over us.

“It was an unreal feeling, we’re on cloud nine.”

Cudgen Cricket Club 1st grade captain Jamie Wilson said they were looking forward to playing Pottsville

Beach who had never made the final before.

“It’s really good for Tweed cricket, we’re both from the same area and have mates in both teams so it’s going to be a really good, hard fought game and I’m looking forward to it.”

The final will be held at Reg Dalton Oval at Kingscliff starting 11am Saturday and Sunday, March 24 - 25.

Cudgen Headland SLSC Keith Kennedy OUR JUNIORS ended their season with the Annual Presentations followed by the AGM for 2018/19.

It has again been a successful season for the club in terms of membership, training, competition and finance. Membership reached an all time high in the 270s. In competition they had members compete in the Qld and Lennox Head Enduro’s and the Coolangatta Gold and Fastest on Sand.

Once again the Club conducted a successful Kozzi Youth Challenge which attracted 300 competitors from as far north as Dicky Beach to Tacking Point down south at Port Macquarie.

At representative level, six members gained selection in the FNC team and Lily O’Sullivan in the NSW Pathways Cup Inter-State.

At Branch level they attended carnivals at Salt, Cabarita, Lennox Head and won the point score at the Branch Titles held in Byron Bay. Donations were received from the Japan Swimming School, Lions Club, Kingscliff Bridge Club and Grilled.

Grants came from Keep Australia Beautiful, Telstra Kids Fund.

A longboard was a Hanson donation.

Purchases included five new fibreglass and

10 foam boards, three new mobile board racks and rescue tubes.

Club President Gavin Smith thanked all those involved who contributed to the very successful year.

Gavin will again lead the club next season with Vice Chairman Matt Eddy, Secretary Shannon Gray and Treasurer Julie French, all re-elected.

Awards Presented were: Bulmer Award: Ginger Allen; Directors Award: Edie & Rose Hampson; Eddie & Joyce Buchanan Encouragement Award: Bede Curnow; Club Person of the Year: Sven Loemker; Coaches Award: Lily O’Sullivan.

A twilight nippers will be held on Good Friday to welcome the Japanese Swim School Students to surf activities.

Member of the school first came here in April 2015.

Surf Life Saving NSW “Beach to Bush” programme is now in its 24th year and with the support of Clubs NSW continues to be the most significant community education initiative of Surf Life Saving, delivery vital beach safety education to rural NSW Primary Schools.

In one week last November, 16 volunteers from 15 clubs visited 50 Schools across

7 NSW and ACT regions; Tamworth, Canberra, Deniliquin, Dubbo, Orange, Yass and Armidale.

They visited 50 schools, 8688 students educated in 108 presentations.

It’s very important for regional students because whilst they may go to the beach, they certainly will go to the local river and dam.

During holidays many will take trips to the coast with their parents and since it began in 1994 the program has reached 270,000 primary school students.

The postponed Branch Titles will be held at Lennox Head this Sunday. Report times

are 6pm for board riding, 8.15am beach run, 8.30am surf teams. The Club Championships set down for Saturday are postponed to a date to be advised as craft for the Australian Titles in Perth has to be loaded into the container also on Sunday, truck to Brisbane and train to Perth.
