More Businesses Getting the Solar Edge

Electricity prices have gone up faster for business users than households, which has resulted in more businesses turning to solar power for relief. 888 Solar Tek is leading the way in the Northern Rivers with the roll out of smart rooftop optimisation with SolarEdge. Traditional string inverters daisy-chain solar panels together in rows like Christmas tree lights. Each panel affects the performance of the whole string and one bad panel can bring down the whole lot. When there are hundreds of solar panels on a roof, finding one bad module is difficult, often involving taking panels off one by one and testing them until the bad one is found.

Here is a summary of the savings available for businesses going solar:

Ÿ Small Technology Certificates (STC's) available for commercial solar installations up to 100kW. This Government incentive pays $32,328 towards the cost of a 50 kW solar system and up to $64,656 for 100 kW! Ÿ $20,000 Tax Break from the ATO for businesses installing solar before 1st July 2018 - write of immediately without depreciation.

Short payback periods for solar investment. Here are some examples of approximate payback periods for different electricity prices: Ÿ

<10c per kWh = 7 year payback

10-20c per kWh = 5 year payback

20-30c per kWh = 4 year payback

>30c per kWh = 3 years or less!

Solar is a long term investment with 25 year warranties on solar panel production, so it is important to make sure you get a quality system that will last the years. The SolarEdge advantage is a game-changer in today's commercial solar sector which is more cost effective over the life of the power plant.

A well designed SolarEdge system does not cost more than a traditional premium string inverter system and comes with 25 year warranties on the optimisers and 12-20 years on inverters. This futureproofs the installation with a dramatic reduction in running costs and ensures maximum power production for years to come, while the investment value is constantly rising relative to the relentless increase of electricity prices.

If you would like to find out more, visit the SolarEdge website or call Vincent at 888 Solar Tek on 6688 4480 for a free design consultation. He understands business and how to ensure you get the highest ROI possible for your new Solar Edge system.

With the SolarEdge system, all the panels are independent, so full power is available all the time. Each panel has its own performance optimiser which reports its status to the included monitoring platform, so faults can be easily pin-pointed and fixed, without months of lagging performance and guesswork. This saves thousands of dollars in ongoing maintenance costs and delivers long term energy increases of 5-25% more power.

Solar Edge also have a great range of Residential offerings. Their fully optimised rooftop gear carries a 25 year warranty and inverters have a 12 year warranty, so it is a great long term investment for a premium solar system for your home as well.

“There’s many reasons to support the hospital site at Kings Forest including sparing our farming land, creating employment plus the commercial opportunities that could come with that,” Cr Cooper said. Cr Cooper highlighted an increasing a m o u n t o f u n e m p l oy m e n t a n d depression amongst some residents living across the Tweed Shire, but he said a project such as this could create a town precinct and with it new employment opportunities. “There’s a need to focus on job variety in the shire and ways to create opportunities where they are needed,” he said. Two Kings Forest sites were previously considered, according to the NSW Health Infrastructure site selection summary report, which highlighted seven key issues for consideration. Among the report’s key issues was that 70 per cent of estate is inundated in a probable maximum flood (PMF) event, with the site above PMF located adjacent to a waste site in north-east corner. Other areas raised included having only one road to access the estate as well as requiring major upgrades to road infrastructure “which is dependent on timing of Stage 1 of Kings Forest development and includes Tweed Coast Road upgrade and roundabout and connection road to Duranbah Road”. Kings Forest does not currently have any existing utilities infrastructure, the site is located within a regional/sub regional wildlife corridor and potential Aboriginal heritage impacts were other issues identified.

Tweed Hospital’s future questioned

Meanwhile, Kingscliff resident Barbara Roughan spoke to The Weekly this week to highlight the confusion around the current hospital site’s future use and whether it will close once the new hospital is opened. “It has concerned me that the NSW Health Infrastructure team did not accurately report on what would happen

to the old hospital once the new Tweed Valley Hospital opens,” she said. “The language used was deliberately vague, and didn’t definitely state that the old hospital would close. “Words like relocate, services transferred and replaced were used, but never the magic word closed. “I’m not sure why I couldn’t get an answer about the use of The Tweed Hospital. “If there’s a plan to close it once the new hospital site opens, I believe the community has a right to know.” The Weekly made further enquiries with the Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD) and Health Infrastructure who both could not provide absolute clarity on the question of The Tweed Hospital’s future closure, but did provide a statement. NNSWLHD Chief Executive Wayne Jones said the NSW Government’s commitment to invest $534 million into a new state-of-the-art facility for the Tweed Valley Hospital is the biggest regional investment in NSW. “No decision has been made yet on the future use of the current Tweed Hospital site, however it has physical limitations which is why a new facility has been planned,” he said. “The existing site is affected by flooding and has inadequate space to develop the necessary health infrastructure needed as future demand on the campus increases. “The planned new hospital will implement the latest healthcare models and deliver the most up-to-date health services, limiting the need for patients to travel away from the region for procedures. “Existing services provided at The Tweed Hospital will be transferred to the new facility once operational.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe Kings Forest could be the best location for the new Tweed Valley Hospital site?

By Jonathon Howard SUPPORT IS building across the Tweed Shire for the new Tweed Valley Hospital to be built at Kings Forest, with development company, Leda Holdings, confirming it will make a further submission for the hospital site. The community remains divided over the location of the half-a-billion-dollar hospital site and several local farmers have been fighting to save the prime agricultural land and are now promoting Kings Forest as a viable alternative. Advocate for the Kings Forest is Cudgen farmer Hayley Paddon, who has been a strong campaigner against the proposed site on State significant farmland. Mrs Paddon said the Kings Forest application for the hospital site should be the top priority. “Kings Forest opens up the future prospect of a new town precinct,” she said. “I’ve always seen Kings Forest as the best location and I fully support the Kings Forest site.” Mrs Paddon pointed out the central location available in Kings Forest for the hospital. “Through our research we’ve found that the new hospital will service a huge area from Tugun to Byron Bay, and in the exact centre is Kings Forest, so again it makes sense,” she said. The Weekly spoke with a spokesman for Leda Holdings who confirmed the company will apply to NSW Health Infrastructure. “The state has invited further submissions suggesting alternative sites,” the spokesman for Leda said. “Kings Forest will be making a professional submission in relation to that invitation.” Among the supporters for the site to be located at Kings Forest is Tweed Shire Councillor Ron Cooper who said he believes a hospital on the Kings Forest site could create a new town precinct.

Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth Woolworths in Murwillumbah - “No Way”. A New Hospital in Kingscliff - “No Way”. W hy s h o u l d Wo o l w o r t h s (politically) not be permitted to compete in Murwillumbah against Coles and IGA as it already does across the rest of Australia? Competition is the foundation principal of economic growth; it increases investment, stimulates lower prices, better service. Surely this is exactly what Murwillumbah has been crying out for? On the northern outskirts of Kingscliff the proposed hospital site is on the same farming area that the library, swimming pool and the TAFE College have been constructed. The suggestions by some “curmudgeons” that the development will reduce Tweed’s future food bowl and/or turn Kingscliff into a ghost town are plainly idiotic. The town will boom from the economic bonanza, property prices will rocket as will jobs etc. I cannot understand why every business in the area is not waving flags like there was a royal wedding thanking the State Government and Geoff Provest for this economic miracle! The proposed hospital site is a marginal sweet potato farm of about 23 acres which is five times the size of the current Tweed Hospital, so parking won’t be an issue and the road system to the M1 will obviously be upgraded to avoid bottlenecks. The hospital and Woolworths arguments remind me of when Max Boyd was running Tweed Shire Council, and Southern Cross University, which had built a campus next to the Tweed Shire Council Offices, offered a new plan to extend the university site utilising the adjoining Council land by way of a joint development which would have vastly improved council facilities at no cost to ratepayers.

Max said no! With zero community consultation because a few of his older voters were grumpy about the perceived loss of car parking space. True story. Southern Cross University looked elsewhere and finished up building a large campus at the Gold Coast Airport. The campus is still growing with a third building just completed and student numbers of 4,200 increasing exponentially, with all the economic advantages that affords to the local Southern Gold Coast community, instead of the Tweed. To t h e K i n g s c l i f f a n d Murwillumbah communities: never look a gift horse in the mouth, others won’t. Terry Sharples, Tweed Heads

Hospital fact finding

The first step of Tweed Shire Council’s proposed Hospital Consultative Committee should be to ask the following questions of Health Infrastructure NSW and the team who ‘discovered’ the Kingscliff protected farmland site. Over the past ten years, what percentage of hospital admissions have come from north of the Tweed River compared to those from the south side? Extrapolating those figures to include the new Cobaki Lakes (northside) and Kings Forest (southside) developments what are the respective percentages? Of the above admissions and those treated as outpatients, what percentage travelled to hospital by public transport or private vehicle as opposed to ambulance under lights and sirens. If those figures are not forthcoming, then any serious site proposal is an expensive and timewasting fiasco. I’m willing to bet that any analysis of admissions and public transport ratio will show the new hospital should be north of the river, and that the emergency ambulance trips will give lie to the claim that a new hospital should be as close to the 100km/h or 80km/h speed-limited roads as possible. Jeremy Cornford, Kingscliff

Kings Forest a terrible choice

Team Koala is absolutely appalled at the suggestion of Councillor Ron Cooper, in his letter to the Tweed Valley Weekly (May 17), that Kings Forest is an option for the location of the new hospital. The State Government report on the reasons that Kings Forest was not rated as a suitable location for the new hospital were; no existing utilities infrastructure, 70 per cent of estate inundated in a probable maximum flood event, only one road in and out and therefore requires major upgrade

to road infrastructure, lack of urban context, decommissioned adjacent waste site poses gas risk, potential Aboriginal heritage impacts and most importantly to Team Koala, site located within regional/sub regional wildlife corridor. It has obviously escaped Councillor Cooper’s attention that the developer of Kings Forest in 2017 sought amendments to the original consent conditions, that are detrimental to local wildlife, especially the endangered koala. As a consequence Team Koala organised a Koala Awareness Walk at Kingscliff in 2017 which was attended by Nationals MP Mr Geoff Provest and Greens MP Ms Dawn Walker. Also Team Koala was instrumental in organising 2,000 submissions opposing the modification, to the NSW Department of Planning and Environment. D e v e l o p e r s o n t h e Tw e e d Coast should work with the local community and Tweed Shire Council and create exceptional environmentally-friendly housing estates that would be of value to new residents as well as local wildlife. Such development would ensure the maintenance of the social, environmental and public amenity of the Tweed Coast which is the reason why most people chose to live here in the first place. Jenny Hayes, Team Koala President

Name witheld for a reason

First let me say how remiss it was of my letter not to explain all of my efforts in the past two years to obtain help for this lonely, distressed dog. I assumed that any ‘thinking person’ would realise that my letter to the editor was in fact, another attempt to perhaps raise the subject again in another manner as to make people aware. It hasn’t worked. I have done everything you suggest but to no avail. Council will not act unless I can give them a specific house number. Obviously you are not familiar with the terrain in Banora Point where hills, open space and many battleaxe blocks exist, making it virtually impossible to find the exact location of this poor animal. The RSPCA mirror the same criteria as council with the necessity of exact location. The owners of this dog may, when home, treat their dog well and may not be aware of its distressed behaviour because no one has wanted to get involved and tell them. As for your repetition of the ‘name withheld’, well that is to avoid repercussions we have experienced in prior reporting of abused

animals.Being alienated from your neighbourhood can be very cruel. I applaud you for your bravery and taking a stand for the animals you have helped, but I seriously doubt that you have experienced what we have in repercussions. Every situation is not as straight forward as you make it sound, not in Banora at least. Come for a drive to see if you can determine the exact location without entering private property. Keep up the good work, but seriously think before you judge me or my circumstances or efforts. We care just as much as you. Name witheld, Banora Point

Learn from the past

Sydney once had the largest tram network in Australia. It had 2,500 trams which covered 181 miles. In 1945 there were 405 million passenger trips. As car use grew and roads became congested the Labor government was convinced by the car lobby to remove the trams and successive governments continued it until the last service ended in 1961. One man remembered going down to the yards as a young boy and watching in horror as one by one the carriages were burnt to ashes. Trams were being built up until the 1950s, so some of them were brand new trams. “ I t s e e m e d l i ke a n a c t o f governmental vandalism,” he said. Over 50 years later, traffic congestion is so bad that trams are coming back to Sydney. The last few decades the road lobby has been influencing the major parties to close regional rail. There are currently thousands of kilometres of rail in NSW where services have been suspended. The North Coast of NSW is the most heavily populated region with millions of tourists every year. We have an extremely high rate of elderly people and disabled people who need regular, commuter trains running on the Casino to Murwillumbah railway line. Rail services cut carbon emissions, provide safe transport and connect our communities, yet our railway track could be ripped up and thrown away for a bike path. Let’s ask government to learn from past mistakes and not throw away valuable infrastructure that is part of our heritage and an essential service. Beth Shelley, Booerie Creek

No gender bias

History is a good teacher and unchangeable, we must learn from it. Carmen Mary Lawrence (Labour Western Australian Premier February 1990 – February 1993) made history by being the first woman to hold the position which

she held for three years prior to a landslide election defeat. Joan Elizabeth Kirner (Labor Victorian Premier, August 1990 – October 1992) made history by being the first woman to hold the position, which she held for two years prior to a landslide election defeat. Bankrupt Victoria. Christina Kerscher Keneally (Labor New South Wales Premier, December 2009 – March 2011) made history by being the first woman to hold the position, which she held for a year-and-a-half, prior to a landslide election defeat. A n n a M a r i a B l i g h ( L ab o r Queensland Premier, September 2007 – March 2012) made history by being the first woman to hold the position, which she held for fourand-a-half years prior to a landslide election defeat. Left a massive debt. Julia Eileen Gillard (Labor Prime Minister, June 2010 – 2013) made history by being the first woman to hold the position. Had a landslide defeat within her party and at the ballot box. Inherited a healthy surplus of $14.8 billion – left a $19 billion deficit and net debt of $153 billion Keating left a deficit of $14 billion and net debt of $83 billion. Howard left a surplus of $17 billion and net assets of $29 billion. Gillard left a $19 billion deficit and net debt of $153 billion. The women must demand only suitably qualified women become candidates with proven abilities, incompetent politicians seriously demean the status of women and damage the good work done by the competent. No gender bias in either direction, no qualifications, no ability and no pre-selection. We need inspiring competent leaders without fear nor favour to lead our nation. The nasty shouting matches of pettiness and stupid utterance in Parliament disgrace our nation, we demand better. Gil May, Forestdale

Brothel hours approved and B-Doubles knocked back

TWEED SHIRE councillors voted on a range of important topics at the May Council Meeting, held at Tweed Heads on Thursday, May 18.

B-Doubles raise concerns

An application to use heavier 19-metre B-Doubles from Kyogle Shire to Condong was rejected by Tweed Shire councillors. The application sought to use 55 tonne B-Doubles to transport mulch to the Condong Cogeneration Plant from Kyogle using Kyogle Road through Uki and Murwillumbah. Councillors voted to deny the application on evidence that certain sections of Kyogle Road south of Kunghur “may not be suitable for vehicles in excess of 50 tonnes”. Kyogle Council also advised Tweed Shire Council they would “not support the use of 19m B-Double trucks using Kyogle Road within their shire”. A second B-Double application to use 19-metre trucks on Dulguigan Road will be decided at a future Council meeting after a NSW Police representative did not support the request. The B-Double application also asked for 55 tonne trucks that would travel from the Dulguigan quarry, along Dulguigan Road and through Tumbulgum to Tweed Valley Way. NSW Police representative Senior Constable Luke Blisset and Cr Chris Cherry did not support the application at the B-Double Routes Agency Advisory Group meeting held on April 19, however, the remainder of the group voted to support the application and recommended to councillors that the request be approved.

The route to the quarry is currently approved for vehicles up to 57.5 tonnes and a report to the B-Double group stated that “the road’s alignment and structural integrity indicates that it is suitable for a 19-metre B-Double up to 55 tonnes to travel on”. Councillors voted to defer the decision until feedback has been received from the NSW Police representative with only Cr Pryce Allsop voting against the motion.

General Manager reappointed

Tweed Shire Council General Manager Troy Green has been appointed for another five years at the helm of the Tweed’s largest employer. Councillors carried a unanimous vote to offer Mr Green a further five year contract after he advised Council he wished to continue in the role. Mayor Katie Milne praised Mr Green’s performance in the role, especially in the aftermath of the 2017 Tweed flood. “Troy’s annual performance reviews over the past four and a half years as Council’s General Manager reflect a high level of satisfaction with his performance and the outcomes delivered over this period,” Mayor Milne said. “In particular, Council highlights Troy’s Leadership of the organisation and in the community, especially evident during the devastating floods experienced recently, the fact that Council has continued to be assessed by the State Government as financially fit for the future, and the extraordinary commitment Troy

has made both to the position and in the local community. “Accordingly, Council has unanimously resolved today to re-appoint Troy to a new five year contract of employment as Council’s General Manager, under the same terms and conditions as his current contract of employment, including no changes to the current total remuneration package, and I will be delighted on Council’s behalf to execute that contract with Troy in the near future.”

Nathan Bewes memorial

Councillors voted to recognise Private Nathan Bewes of Murwillumbah, who was tragically killed in action while serving in Afghanistan in 2010. Council will consult with Private Bewes’ family and the Murwillumbah RSL Sub-Branch to identify the best way to recognise his sacrifice, which could include naming a park or facility in Murwillumbah in his honour.

Air traffic pollution debate

Council will write to Environment Minister Gabrielle Upton to request the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) undertakes comprehensive, specific and targeted air quality monitoring for Tweed Shire and Gold Coast residents and the report be made publicly available. The motion also called for air quality monitoring in Tweed Heads, Banora Point and Kingscliff as well as a site impacted by cane fires and wood heaters to be included in the NSW Air Quality Network. The motion was passed unanimously.

South Tweed improvements

Two motions to investigate improvements at Tweed Heads South were carried by councillors. The first motion called for Council to investigate landscaping improvements to Minjungbal Drive, whilst the second was consideration of a public toilet in the South Tweed industrial area.

Brothel hours extended

A brothel located at Enterprise Avenue, Tweed Heads South, has been approved to extend their opening hours to 24 hours, seven days a week. In 2010, an application to operate 24/7 was knocked back by councillors, but a one year trial to operate 24 hours was approved last year. Councillors Polglase, Allsop and Byrnes all voted against extending the brothel’s opening hours, however the motion was carried with for votes from Mayor Milne, Cr Chris Cherry, Cr James Owen and Cr Ron Cooper.

Building smaller homes

Cr Milne and Cr Cherry moved that Council brings forward a report on options to encourage building smaller homes as a means of reducing the environmental footprint of building and maintaining a home and to reduce energy consumption. A report to councillors from Council staff said each new home constructed in the Tweed is already required to meet minimum energy reduction targets and thermal comfort standards and significant changes to state and council

planning policies would be required to enact the motion. The motion was lost with only Mayor Milne and Cr Chris Cherry voting for it.

Hospital reference group

Councillors Warren Polglase, James Owen and Pryce Allsop will join the Tweed Valley Hospital Development reference group despite voting against a motion by Mayor Milne that nominated all seven councillors to the group. The reference group forms part of Health Infrastructure’s community consultation which has been extended until June 14 and will also include several non-voting technical advisors including the General Manager and Director of Planning. Councillors had previously voted for a motion that called for the State Government to reconsider the proposed location and if adequate community engagement was not provided Council “will assist the community in their efforts to determine an alternative acceptable site for a new hospital”. “In supporting the establishment of the Tweed Shire Council Reference Group, I would like to see the representation from councillors along bipartisan lines with councillors who voted for and against the Late Mayoral Minute at the April Meeting being nominated and able to freely participate in this Reference Group,” Mayor Milne’s motion read. “As a council we should embrace this opportunity afforded to us to provide important feedback and input into this exciting project for the future of Tweed Shire.”

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Workers’ compensation system improves with access to free legal help

Much needed changes to the workers’ compensation scheme announced in early May will allow all injured workers who dispute the amount of money they receive while off work to seek help from a lawyer.

“The planned changes announced by the NSW government go some way to correcting a gross unfairness to the workers’ compensation system by making it easier for victims to have assistance from accredited lawyers experienced in compensation law to argue their case and help navigate the often confusing system,” said Justin Stack, director of Stacks Law Firm. “The changes will make it easier for injured workers to get legal assistance to challenge insurers’ decisions on the amount of compensation awarded, and also to challenge decisions in the Workers’ Compensation Commission. “But the changes will not reverse the severe cuts to benefits for injured workers made by the government in 2012, that saw benefit payments decline 25 per cent in just five years. While injured workers suffered from the drastic cuts to monetary support, the workers’ compensation system has blossomed to a surplus of $4 billion,” Mr Stack said. Thousands of injured workers unable to work lost their weekly benefits under the scheme last December, forcing many onto welfare, and to rely on charity. NSW Finance Minister, Victor Dominello, said the changes to reform workers’ compensation will improve the “experience” of injured workers by improving support services, simplifying claim processes and removing duplication. Some of the changes will require legislation later this year. “A government review found that there are a number of ways in which we can improve the claims process for injured workers by enabling faster resolution of disputes,” Mr Dominello said. Under the changes, all enquiries and complaints from injured workers that are not resolved with their insurer in the first instance will be directed to the Workers Compensation Independent Review Office (WIRO) for assistance. Further, all enquiries and complaints from employers and other system participants will be referred to the State Insurance Regulatory Authority (SIRA).

New era for Cabarita Caravan Park site

By Jo Kennett CARAVAN OWNERS at the Cabarita Beach Caravan Park have been asked to vacate the park by July 23 with the park due to be redeveloped. The site is currently under contract to a conglomerate who have “no plans to build units on the site at this stage”. Current owner Lance Hansen said that his parents had bought the site in 1963. “When they arrived the caravan park site was the first land they purchased and developed,” Mr Hansen told The Weekly. “They travelled around Australia for three years prior to moving up from Victoria to Cabarita. “They bought the park and developed that and then a little later took over the swamp on the edge of the lake and developed the Cabarita Gardens Lake Resort while they were running the park, building homes and developing land. They were pioneers of that era.” Mr Hansen said the family still had property at Cabarita that they will transform over the coming years and hoped something nice would eventuate at the site. “We’ve owned and operated the park for a long time but a new direction will help that site, it’s a good entrance site to the village so hopefully a nice entry statement to the village will eventuate there.” Brenda Neger has been managing the park since 1993 and said that it was the end of an era.

“It’s very, very sad because I’ve been here for 25 years and loved every minute of it,” she said. “I’m going to miss all my birds and the people that have been coming here all these years. I’ll miss all their dogs too. “There’s someone here now who has been coming for 50 years.” Ms Neger said that although it was sad, they knew the park was going to close. “It was supposed to happen years ago, so we’ve all been very privileged that we’ve been able to stay longer than we expected,” she said. “I’ll be sad but I’m going to be around the area and I honestly wish the owner well about selling it because they’ve been very hard workers all their lives and I think they are at the age where they want to settle down and live their lives and not be in business all the time.” Ms Neger said she had started out at the Cabarita Gardens Lake Resort 30 years ago and was hoping to move there (Cabarita Lake Apartments) when she leaves the caravan park. “That will be going full circle,” she said. Shailer Park resident Alan McDonough has been holidaying at the park for the past eight years and said he’ll miss spending his weekends at Cabarita. “We were there two weeks ago,” Mr McDonough said. “We have an old Kombi that we drive down for a break on the weekend and we always had great fun there.”

In addition, the Workers Compensation Commission (WCC) will undertake all dispute resolution once an internal review is completed by an insurer, removing these functions from SIRA and WIRO.

Mr McDonough said that it will take money out of the community if it closes down permanently. “I know how much I spend there when we come down,” he said. “The question I want to know is whether they will put another camping ground in there somewhere.” Mr McDonough said that he will probably end up spending his weekends at the camping grounds at Hastings Point or Pottsville. The caravan park was due to close in 2013 and redeveloped into affordably priced units by the Hansen family. Ken Hansen said at the time they had spent the five years before planning and designing the development and gaining approval from Tweed Shire Council. However, there had been no change to the park until caravan owners were told the site had been sold and that they needed to vacate by July 23. “Our friends sold their onsite van six years ago because it was supposed to be closing down so they missed out on holidaying there all those years,” Mr McDonough said. The Weekly contacted one member of the conglomerate who are purchasing the site, Chairman of Destination North Coast and CEO of Flash Camp Cameron Arnold, who said they have “exciting plans” for the future of the site. “We have no plans to develop units on the site at this stage,” Mr Arnold said. 72636

The plans to change the workers’ compensation system came after many injured workers complained of having to wrestle with a complicated and confusing system that left insurers holding all the cards on how much the payout for workplace injuries would be, with the victim having little chance of mounting a successful challenge.

Learn more about the hospital site Community drop-in sessions about the site for the new Tweed Valley Hospital are being held at NSW Health Infrastructure’s project office in Tweed Heads. These informal sessions provide the opportunity to discuss the site selection process with the project team, including the key features and considerations for the proposed site and the key issues with other areas investigated across the region. The drop-in sessions are available to all members of the community. You will need to contact the project team on 1800 992 634 to confirm a time. These sessions form part of a six-week community consultation program that commenced in late April and running through to 14

June 2018. The process includes an opportunity for the local community to provide feedback on the proposed hospital site, as well as nominate alternative sites for further consideration via the feedback and alternative site nomination form. Meanwhile, at last week’s Council meeting, it was resolved to call for expressions of interest from community members to form a Community Reference Group with Councillors. The aim of the Community Reference Group is to explore alternative sites other than that currently nominated at Cudgen. Nominations are now open and close on Friday 8 June 2018. For more information, see the Expression of Interest advertisement in this issue of the Tweed Link.

Funding available for road safety projects Community-based groups wanting to improve road safety in their area can now apply for funding for their local project under the Community Road Safety Grants. Applications for grant funding up to $30,000 close on Sunday 10 June 2018. Applicants must be community-based organisations and can submit funding proposals for projects that will increase road safety awareness and support safer road use. Small projects may receive grant funding up to $5000 for each idea and a more substantial project may be funded up to $30,000. “Transport for New South Wales provides these grants to local organisations because local communities know their unique road safety issues,” Council Road Safety Officer Alana Brooks said.

Some of the successful projects across the state for the last round of grants included: • driver mentoring assistance for disadvantaged youth • awareness campaign targeting driveway safety • voluntary breath-testing program at festivals • Nightrider Bus Service, and • Under the Radar rider safety workshops. The eligibility criteria for the grants are strict so applicants are advised to understand the rules before starting their application. The Community Road Safety Grants team can answer queries relating to eligibility and help applicants through the process. They can be contacted by calling (02) 8265 7372 or emailing communityroadsafetygrants@transport.nsw.gov.au.

In brief ... Future proof your farm

Farmers and other rural landholders are invited to a free workshop about climate change adaptation and the latest renewable and energy efficiency solutions for landholders.

The event, being held at Tropical Fruit World at Duranbah on Tuesday 5 June from 10am to 1pm, is one of a series of sustainable agriculture workshops being delivered by Council in 2018. The next workshop will be held at Cudgen on 19 June where world-renowned ecologist Dr Wendy Seabrook will provide practical guidance on utilising natural processes to improve production systems whether they are commercial farms, market gardens or urban vegetable patches. All welcome but bookings are essential by calling (02) 6670 2599 or eszandala@tweed.nsw.gov.au.

Half price Rider Down course to save lives

Council is hosting a first aid course for motorcyclists aimed at reducing fatalities and the severity of injuries should a rider come down. The Rider Down course is subsidised through Transport for NSW’s Local Government Road Safety Program and is being offered to riders for $50, that is, less than half price. Because motorcyclists often ride in groups, it is likely that a fellow rider will be the first on the scene after a rider comes down. “It teaches riders the right skills and will give them confidence to provide immediate and critical first aid to a rider who’s come down,” Council Road Safety Officer Alana Brooks said. “It will also provide them with the skills to manage a crash site, preventing further potential injuries or crashes before emergency services arrive”. The course will be delivered by professional paramedic educators and was a finalist in the 2017 and 2018 Australia Road Safety Awards. It is being held at the Banora Point Community Centre, Coolamon Room, on the corner of Leisure and Woodlands drives, Banora Point, on Sunday 17 June from 9.30am-2.30pm. The course is suitable for riders with no first aid experience or general first aid training as it has been designed specifically for motorcyclists. Riders who complete the course will receive a Statement of Attendance and an internationally recognised Stop the Bleed® certificate. You can book a place online at www.book.riderdown.com.au / or call Rider Down on 1300 585 000.

Local art on show at Tweed Regional Gallery Those attending the openings of two new exhibitions at the Tweed Regional Gallery this Friday will also get a sneak preview of Border Art Prize entries. The exhibitions Subdivision by Northern Rivers Artist Georgie Maddox and Curtain Call by Andrew Antoniou will be officially opened at 6pm on Friday 25 May. Gallery Director, Ms Susi Muddiman OAM said Subdivision is presented as an outcome of the Gallery’s Community Access Exhibitions Program (CAEP), which caters specifically to artists who are residents of Tweed, Kyogle, Lismore, Ballina, Byron, Scenic Rim or Gold Coast City Shires. “This popular program offers regional artist the opportunity to present their work within a world class facility,” Ms Muddiman said. “We are proud to host the work of Georgie Maddox, whose artistic practice offers a reminder of the importance of our unique landscape. “Her work explores the effects of consumer culture on sustainability, as well as the broader environmental impacts on our natural landscape.”

Ms Maddox said each artwork, created in oil on canvas, depicts abstract landscapes within Northern NSW including the controversial West Byron development. “There is a constant battle between progress versus conservation of the natural land,” she said. These key issues are visually communicated through deconstruction - cutting, ripping, tearing - then reconstruction compiling, realigning, restitching thus creating a new aesthetic and perspective of the original landscape artwork. The resulting artworks remind the viewer that once something has been destroyed it can never be fully restored as our natural environment is irreplaceable, precious and unique just as our interaction with the land permanently alters and changes it for future generations.

Fire for Healthy Habitats Murwillumbah CBD nightworks set to start Fire for Healthy Habitats will be theme of the final workshop in the Land for Wildlife workshop series. The current workshop series – launched in 2016 and funded by a National Parks and Wildlife Foundation grant with support from Council – helps private landholders learn about and manage native habitat on their land. The Fire for Healthy Habitats workshop, a half-day, free workshop scheduled for Saturday 9 June, will help landholders better understand the relationship between fire and some of our local ecosystems. Council’s Project Officer, Biodiversity, Michael Corke said that while fire is an emotive topic for many people, like flood and drought it is an important natural phenomenon. “Fire regimes – the characteristics of individual fires and their cumulative effects on the landscape over many years – play a crucial role in shaping the abundance and distribution of plants and animals,” said Mr Corke. “Entire ecosystems are adapted to fire which has shaped the Australian biota for millennia. “Many native plants have adaptations which enable them to survive fire while many native animals require specific habitats which are dependent on particular fire regimes. “Participants will visit an interesting coastal area to examine first-hand the effects of fire on a number of different coastal vegetation types and observe vegetation burnt at different times and in varying states of recovery.” The workshop will cover approval processes and permits as well as a community-based training program enabling landholders to participate in a fire management planning program. “Our facilitator, Andy Baker of Wildsite Ecological Services is an experienced ecologist and bushfire specialist who is passionate about our local ecosystems and it will be great to share his considerable expertise,” Mr Corke said. Places are limited for the free workshop from 9am to 12.30pm on Saturday 9 June so bookings are essential by phoning (02) 6670 2400. Participants must wear clothing suitable for bushwalking including a hat and sturdy boots and they should bring drinking water. Morning tea will be provided.

Watch out for Tweed Valley Way roadworks Contractors will begin constructing the wire rope median on Tweed Valley Way behind Tumbulgum Village next Monday, 28 May. Motorists are advised that both workers and machinery will occupy 4.5 metres in the centre of the newly laid section of road, with both lanes of traffic travelling past them on the road shoulders. Short delays should be expected when machinery has to enter and exit the worksite. Stop / slow flagmen will be controlling the traffic flow through the worksite from Monday to Saturday, from 7am – 4pm daily. The first task for contractor Guardrail Installations will be to set large concrete anchor slabs under the road surface at both ends of the median. They will then set the uprights in the road, string the wire rope and strain it off to the anchor slabs. The final task will be line-marking, which will be undertaken by Council at the end of the job. The installation of the 920 metres of wire rope as a Federal Government Blackspot Program is expected to take three weeks, weather permitting.

Road nightworks began on Kennedy Drive, Tweed Heads, last Sunday and are due to start in the central business district of Murwillumbah this coming Sunday, 27 May. The stabilisation of Kennedy Drive, from Norman Street west to the Pacific Motorway, will be completed by this Friday morning, weather permitting. Traffic will be allowed through the worksite from 7pm-6am but should expect delays. The work to rebuild sections of Wollumbin and Brisbane streets in Murwillumbah will continue for five consecutive weeks and is scheduled to be completed by Friday 29 June. The sections of road will be closed to traffic during work from 7pm-6am (except Friday and Saturday nights and public holidays) and open under changed traffic conditions during the day. Pedestrians will still be able to use the footpaths at night to access Wollumbin Street restaurants. The drive-through at KFC will remain open during the works but customers will be asked to enter and exit via Proudfoots Lane. Both the Tweed Heads and Murwillumbah road upgrades are being funded by the New South Wales Government’s Roads and Maritime Service (RMS) and must be completed before 30 June 2018.

do” if you want to protect your stock and your farm. “There are a range of tickicides and anthelmintics that treat for cattle tick as well as products for other external parasites that may be a problem in different seasons, a combination drench is also a good choice for internal parasites and liver fluke.” Dr Poe said regular monitoring and maintaining of stock-proof fencing was also essential. “While cattle are in your quarantine yard or small paddock, they should be inspected daily for any signs of disease or pest infestation and only let out with other stock and access to the wider property when you are confident they are healthy and not harbouring diseases, pest or weed seeds,” he said. “Cattle tick is endemic in parts of Queensland, but fortunately is infrequently identified on the North Coast of NSW, and these properties are then subject to movement restrictions and undergo an eradication program.” Cattle tick can carry a protozoal parasite that is injected into cattle when ticks attach and feed. The parasite causes fever, depression and anaemia. Affected animals may stagger, show nervous signs and have red coloured urine (redwater). NCLLS can help with tick identification to distinguish between cattle, paralysis and bush ticks. The key to identifying cattle ticks is its pale coloured legs and leg position. “Investigating unusual illness in livestock and safeguarding agriculture is a key role of the District Vet team” said Dr Poe. “But, we rely on producers to work with us and report unusual illness, exactly as the producers have done in this instance. “Early reporting of an issue gives us the best chance of containing and eradicating a disease threat.” You can contact your nearest Local Land Services office if you have any further questions about identifying ticks or biosecurity on your property on 1300 795 299.

CATTLE TICK fever is sweeping across the Tweed Shire with a confirmed 23 head of cattle dead at Bilambil recently and a total of almost 100 dead across the North Coast, as movement restrictions and quarantining practices are put in place. The Department of Primary Industries is working to contain the potential outbreak, with calls for cattle farmers to be extra diligent this season by spraying and monitoring their cattle for the presence of the protozoal parasite carrying tick. North Coast Local Land Services (NCLLS) District Veterinarians are also reminding producers to practice good farm biosecurity following the recent cases of tick fever on the North Coast. “Around 100 head of cattle have died as a result of tick fever across several properties,” a media statement from NCLLS District Veterinarians read. “Affected properties in the area are now undergoing a NSW Department of Primary Industries supervised cattle tick eradication program. “This includes tracing of cattle movements and monitoring and treating cattle to eradicate the tick and tick fever. “A number of additional properties also have movement restrictions in place until it can be proven cattle tick has not entered those properties.” Quarantining new or returning stock onto your property and providing suitable livestock health treatments to rid the animal of pests, disease and weeds is an effective method to stop issues crossing your farm gate according to Dr Ian Poe, District Veterinarian with NCLLS. “Issues like this are a reminder to all producers that we must be vigilant with our biosecurity practices to prevent bringing diseases, pests and weeds onto our farms,” Dr Poe said. “Holding new cattle in a yard and treating for internal and external parasites as well as vaccinating for key diseases is really a “must

Tweed Real Estate Report: demand exceeding supply

All your eggs!

THE WEEKLY has compiled your must-read guide to Tweed Shire’s real estate market this week which features all the best performing property locations across what’s fast becoming one of the most sought-after regions in NSW. A rush of investors and home buyers over the past 12 months has seen house prices increase by double digit percentages in most parts of the Tweed, while units have sold for between six to 14 per cent more than 12 months ago. The median house price has hit more than $500K in all suburbs except for Murwillumbah and Tyalgum who are sitting below $500K, whilst units in all areas remain below the half a million dollar mark, despite recording high growth during the past 12 months. The strongest growth in median house prices since May 2017 was at Tumbulgum where the median price increased by 18.2 per cent to $540K, followed by Bogangar where the median house price is now $695K, or a 17.8 per cent increase. Not far behind was Tweed Heads West (17.2 per cent), Stokers Siding (16.5 per cent) and Tyalgum (15.6 per cent). Murwillumbah continues to show strong growth in house prices, with the southside increasing by 13.7 per cent to $415K and the town centre up 11.9 per cent to $470K. Tweed Heads South (13 per cent) performed better than Tweed Heads (10.2 per cent) and Banora Point (10.1 per cent), with Tweed Heads South the most affordable at $520K compared to $700K and $605K respectively. Kingscliff and Casuarina, who have the highest median prices in the Tweed ($865K and $950K), showed little growth with Kingscliff recording a 1.17 per cent increase while Casuarina dropped 2.6 per cent. Units recorded less growth than homes, except for Banora Point where unit prices increased by an extra four per cent over houses to 14 per cent and a median price of $420K. Pottsville units recorded the second highest growth in unit prices of 13.7 per cent to a median price of $473K. Bogangar was the only area that saw a decrease in unit prices (-1.7 per cent) to $400K, and the remaining areas increased by between six and 11 per cent. First National Murwillumbah Real Estate Agent Helen Flynn said the Tweed property market remains “strong with good demand for well priced property across all sections of the market”. “Strong interest in all sectors of property – but more particularly residential, small acreage and larger holdings in Tweed Valley and Murwillumbah is being fuelled particularly by buyers from the south – Mullumbimby, Brunswick and Byron and to our north from the Gold Coast and Brisbane areas,” she said. “These buyers are seeking more competitive priced properties compared to their own areas and a quieter more community orientated location with strong potential for growth to relocate with their families. “Sydney and Melbourne buyers that have been priced out of the city markets are now looking to invest in an area that has all indications of strong potential growth.” Mrs Flynn said the property market remains a sellers market with good enquiries and strong numbers of prospective buyers, both owner occupiers and investors, attending “open for inspections” are indicative of this trend. “More property development for residential land is very much needed across the Tweed Shire developers are looking for potential sites at the present time,” she said. “This land is very much needed to service demand and expand our population and the area’s economy and to generate more business and jobs in the area.” LJ Hooker Coolangatta Tweed Principal Peter Walmsley said the local market remains strong but has slowed a little. “There are certainly more buyers than sellers at the moment,” Mr Walmsley said. “There’s a lot of demand for new homes near the border but there’s no new developments to meet the market demand and it’s forcing buyers further north.” Mr Walmsley said the biggest fear for the future of Tweed and Coolangatta real estate was the Labor Party’s proposed changes to negative gearing. “If there’s a change of government and negative gearing is squashed it could have a negative impact on the market,” he said. Mr Walmsley said the properties with the highest demand were small acreages but there’s very few available.

Your superannuation may not be as diversified as you think. Ask any financial planner and they’ll tell you that superannuation money ear-marked for retirement purposes should be ‘diversified’. That belief has its roots in the principles of Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT). Nobel Prize winner, Harry Markowitz, developed MPT in the early 1950’s. His principles were simple to understand and striking by their implications: diversification can eliminate the risks that don’t enhance returns, while retaining the risks that do. Markowitz was very clear that ‘diversification’ in an investment portfolio applies to risks, not assets.

The graph above is a typical strategic asset allocation that will be familiar to any superannuation saver. Described by its asset class weights, this portfolio appears to be well-diversified. But if you convert the asset class weights to their risk weights (chart below), in proper observation of MPT principles, a very different picture emerges: a single risk accounts for 95% of the total risk in the portfolio. When described by asset class ‘label’, most

superannuation funds appear to be welldiversified, but in terms of ‘risks’ they are not diversified at all. Scott Barlow, CEO of Sovren calls this, ‘the diversification illusion’. “Every financial planner will tell you that the first rule when constructing an investment portfolio is ‘diversification’. “Simply spreading your investments across different asset classes does not necessarily secure the downside protection benefits that come with being ‘diversified’. It is one of the most damaging myths perpetuated by the financial planning industry.” The illusion is not confined to financial planners either. “Industry Super Funds construct their portfolios under the same misguided belief. The true risks in these Funds are concealed behind meaningless labels such as ‘Conservative’, ‘Balanced’, ‘Growth’ and so on. “Far from ‘spreading’ the risk as many people believe, these Funds unwittingly put all the investor’s eggs in one basket, which unsurprisingly, can result in devastating outcomes for ordinary retirement savers.”

“There’s a huge demand for small acreages but there’s none available,” he said. “Many buyers are now looking at acreage properties with old homes to fix or knock down, which can come at a big expense.” Elders Real Estate Tweed Valley Principal Sally Mather said the market remained steady with plenty of enquiries from both buyers and sellers. “We currently have numerous $400K listings, which is a price range that has plenty to choose from, but the big interest at the moment is coming from the multi-million-dollar properties, which are attracting enquiries all the time from property investors,” she said. “We’re also finding a lot of people are keen on properties that offer a lot of space or even acreages. “I think buyers are really seeking space to fulfil that dream lifestyle change and something that gives them more room to move and enjoy their hobbies.” Mrs Mather said that although property prices were remaining firm, sales were taking a little longer. “The prices are still firm, but just take a little longer to sell,” she said.

Recent top market sales over one million There have been several million-dollar settlements recently with listings still attracting eager buyers at the top of the market. The Taverna restaurant site at 22 Marine Parade, Kingscliff, which also boasts a luxurious five-bedroom beach house with ocean views sold for $3.2 million in April. A four bedroom, three bathroom unit at Marine Parade, Kingscliff, sold for $1.4 million last week, a five bedroom, four bathroom, Fingal Head house sold for $2.58 million last month along with a Reserve Creek Road acreage that sold for $1.1 million. According to the latest Corelogic property analytics released in April, NSW regional markets are now outperforming the big smoke. Over the past year Sydney’s dwelling values have fallen by 2.1 per cent while NSW regional values rose by 5.1 per cent and the Richmond-Tweed region increased by 2.2 per cent. CoreLogic’s head of research Tim Lawless said the latest trends are virtually the opposite to the past five years. “Regional areas are now outperforming the capitals and units are outperforming houses,” he said. “Also the most expensive properties are now showing weaker conditions than the more affordable ones.” Mr Lawless said the solid performance of regional markets is mostly attributable to stronger conditions across the larger regional centres located within close proximity to the three major capitals, as well as improving conditions across many of the lifestyle markets. Housing finance figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics for the past six months have shown an overall decline in housing finance, especially for investors. The most recent March 2018 figures show an overall 0.2 per cent drop in the value of housing finance, comprising a 0.9 per cent reduction in the value of investment loans but a 0.2 per cent increase in the value of owner-occupier finance. The number of new owner-occupier loans, however, decreased 0.7 per cent and 2.2 per cent when seasonally adjusted. “Overall the figures for March 2018 show, in trend terms that the number of owner-occupied finance commitments decreased by 0.7 per cent –the sixth consecutive month of decreases,” Real Estate Institute of Australia President Malcolm Gunning said. “If refinancing is excluded, in trend terms, the number of owner-occupied finance commitments decreased by 0.9 per cent, again the sixth consecutive month of decreases.” Suburb Tumbulgum Bogangar Tweed Heads West Stokers Siding Tyalgum South Murwillumbah Pottsville Tweed Heads South Murwillumbah Tweed Heads Banora Point Bilambil Heights Uki Kingscliff Terranora Casuarina

ADVERTISEMENT most popular family holiday destination for Australians. So, when is the best time to pack up the family and take them away to Fiji? This is a question with a few answers. The most obvious choice is school holidays; however, this is the peak season when prices are higher and availability hard to get. If you really can’t avoid travelling in school holidays period, then make sure you book well in advance. Don’t leave it to the week before school breakup. Outside of this, the cooler season runs May to November where average temperatures range from 19–26C. The summer season runs December to May when the average temperatures ranges from 24-31C. Most Australian families prefer to visit in the cool season, when the humidity is lower and there is less likelihood of encountering tropical storms. The most difficult choice you will have to make for your family getaway to Fiji is where to stay, as the wealth of accommodation options can be confusing. Over 300 tropical islands make up Fiji, even if you minus the 110 that are uninhabited, there’s a bucket load of family accommodation options for a Fiji family holiday. There is the choice of the ocean whilst their kids are in the kid’s club or popular Coral Coast, Denarau or one of the in the care of a personal nanny.

IT IS that first Fijian glance – an openness of greeting. Wide eyes are big, brown and somewhat cheekily mischievous. An almost sideways smile flashes blinding pearly whites. A face radiates a laid-back nature. Mixed, this is a most welcoming Bula from the island nation – a ‘welcome to Fiji’. This island nation in the South Pacific Ocean is inhabited by almost 850,000 smiling Fijians. With such infectious smiles, it is hard to escape without catching one yourself. This friendly and welcoming nature of the locals is one of the reasons Fiji is the ideal destination for families. Add to that the white sand beaches and lush islands, the warm tropical climate, a huge choice of accommodation with world-class children’s programs, activities to keep everyone entertained and the fact it’s all just a few hours’ direct flight away and you have one of the

fort; good luck getting them to bed after a stimulating evening cultural show. Pacific Harbour has adventure sports, highland tours from nearby Navua and offshore island trips. Just north of Nadi, the mud pools, buggy tours and zipline are thrilling for all ages. At the end of the day, you can’t go wrong with a family holiday to Fiji. Fijians love spending time with children and children respond to this. There is something truly special about the Fijians’ love of children. Maybe it’s their relaxed, open nature, where life is truly lived in the moment; maybe it’s their love of family. Whatever it is, it will be a highlight of your family holiday.

they first started practicing with us 10 or 15 years ago,” Gopala said. “We’ve even had a few students who were first introduced to yoga through us, going on to be competent teachers themselves. “The changes we see in so many of our students, not only the physical benefits but also the positive changes on a mental level gives us a great sense of satisfaction. “We started out the same as most people, thinking yoga was just another form of exercise, but we found the deeper aspects of yoga had such a positive effect upon our lives. In fact it changed us to the point that we felt we were no longer the same people we had been in the past. “The practice and teachings of yoga have dominated our lives for as long as we can remember. “We feel fortunate to have been able to make our way of life our way of making a living. “We’ve studied many different styles of yoga over the years,” said Yogananda “but we’ve never subscribed to the idea of imitating a particular style, we’ve developed our own style which is challenging and yet attainable to most people taking into account the different abilities, body types or injuries of individual students. “We can’t thank enough all of the people who have supported us all these years and have become our friends.” Classes are held at the CWA hall, Queen Street, on Tuesdays from 10am to 11.30am and Wednesday 6.30pm to 8pm, all are welcome.

LOCAL MURWILLUMBAH couple Yogananda and Gopala Krishna are this year celebrating 25 years of teaching yoga from the CWA Hall on Queen Street in Murwillumbah. Throughout that time the couple have maintained a passionate approach to their students and have inspired them through the wonders of yoga. To find out more, The Weekly caught up with Yogananda and Gopala to discover their story and passion for yoga teaching. “We arrived in Murwillumbah from Sydney in 1990, having already spent 12 years practicing and teaching yoga from a yurt studio on the northern suburbs of Sydney,” Gopala said. “We were told when we first approached the CWA president that a lot of people had attempted to start yoga classes in the hall but none had been successful. “But 25 years later we are still teaching classes with many of our students remaining with us for many years and who have come to be our close friends. “ The couple who have taught hundreds of people through their classes in Murwillumbah over the years say they are constantly running into present and former students while walking through town. “Even to this day we sometimes have students reappearing back at class after travelling away from Murwillumbah and reminding us that

TWEED/BYRON POLICE are ramping up their efforts to stamp out mid-level crime and disrupt drug supply chains across the Northern Rivers with a new specialist police team announced this week. Member for Lismore Thomas George, Nationals Parliamentary Secretary for Northern NSW Ben Franklin and Member for Tweed Geoff Provest, met in Byron to announce the fourth Region Enforcement Squad (RES) for regional NSW. Northern Region Assistant Commissioner, Max Mitchell, said the Northern Rivers RES is an additional resource that will allow officers to focus on proactive policing rather than reactive policing. “Our priority is to continually enhance the capabilities of police and this RES unit will provide further support to officers across the Northern Region Police Districts,” Assistant Commissioner Mitchell said. Mr George said the Northern Rivers RES, which covers the Tweed-Byron and Richmond Police Districts, is a welcome addition for Northern NSW communities. “Community safety is of the utmost importance, and our local police do a terrific job day-in and day-out keeping northern rivers residents and businesses safe and secure,” he said. Mr Franklin said this new squad is not only an asset for Northern Region police, but also a win for the local community as it will target criminals that are driving crime in the area. “Consisting of one sergeant and four constables, the North Coast Region Enforcement Squad will conduct investigations into drug supply, firearms offences, property crime, and any criminal syndicates in the area,” Mr Franklin said. The Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said Region Enforcement Squads have proven to be enormously successful in tackling crime in metropolitan areas. “While this new squad will be based at the Tweed/Byron Police District, it is a flexible unit with the capacity to work throughout major hubs and smaller towns across northern NSW,” said Mr Provest.

WHEN MURWILLUMBAH resident Pavlos Kaleyias lost his Staffordshire Bull Terrier Wally on May 8, he was overwhelmed with offers from the community to help find him. Wally was rescued from Brisbane nine months ago and had just finished obedience lessons to stop him escaping Mr Kaleyias’ yard, but even a new fence couldn’t hold him back. Mr Kaleyias came home to find Wally gone and then heard reports that a dog matching Wally's description had been located near the laundromat which had been spooked when they tried to check his collar. “He ran under a high-set 4WD but then he ran so fast up the hill that he didn’t sound like he had been injured,” he told The Weekly. “I think he got a big scare because he was lost. It was four in the afternoon and he isn’t used to traffic.” Mr Kaleyias, who runs Pavlos Airport Transfers, said that the story of Wally had spread like wildfire on social media and he and his wife had been overwhelmed by all the messages of support and help they had received. Many residents had heard how Mr Kaleyias' business had been affected by the loss of four vehicles and other damage from last year's flood and knew how devastating the loss of his mate was for him. A sniffer dog was brought down to try to find Wally, Queensland Staffy Rescue also came on board as did Arthur’s Concierge Pet Detective Agency from Sydney, all with no luck. Mr Kaleyias said that people had even offered hundreds of dollars towards a reward. “ T h e l ov e o f t h e p e o p l e a ro u n d Murwillumbah - which I saw after the floods has been amazing,” Mr Kaleyias said. “A thank you isn’t enough for all their help. My wife and I cried when we heard what they wanted to do to help. Their kindness has just been amazing.” A week after he went missing Mr Kaleyias got the miracle that many in the area had told him they were praying for. Mr Kaleyias had gone to the gym on Wednesday morning (May 16) when his wife showed up. A woman who had heard about Wally had found him near the Murwillumbah Brothers League Club.

“I did that area every day two or three times but he wasn’t coming out,” he said. “When I went upstairs he was there with my wife and he was so excited and dirty and I started crying and then everyone that came to have a look was nearly crying. “He’s famous now, he’s like Wally Red Dog.” Mr Kaleyias said they had good news from the vet. Although Wally’s leg was badly cut by the car he ran under he doesn’t have a fracture and although he has a cast on his leg he is on the mend. “I am going to have Wally down at Budd Park on Saturday morning, May 26, to meet everyone because the week that he was missing, what they did and how much they helped was amazing,” he said. “So many people - there were people from as far as Tasmania and Sydney that had heard about Wally on social media - were asking about him. “The community got behind this nearly as much as the floods. For a dog that nobody knows it’s just amazing. “I want to be able to thank everyone with Wally and they can shake hands and take photographs and it’s to show that Wally says thank you to the community that tried to find him.”

Help needed to find Lily - still missing

Now Wally has been found Olga Gillies from Burringbar is hoping the community will keep an eye out for Lily, her five-year-old black and white German Shorthaired Pointer wearing a pink collar and a black collar. Lily went missing when Ms Gillies was taken from her property by ambulance to hospital on Friday May 4. She was last seen heading east from Burringbar into the hills around Cudgera Creek Road area towards Pottsville. Ms Gillies said she will be a bit spooked but food will bring her in. Anyone with information can phone Ms Gillies on 0403 011 713.

Wintersun 2.0 coming soon Greenback State of Origin clash

WINTERSUN 2.0 is set to rock the Tweed Valley for a total of nine days across two weeks starting from Friday, June 1. The event, which is organised by Aces and Eights Event Management, will present a range of the hottest local, state (Qld and NSW) and national cars, plus plenty more excitement including live bands and the highly popular dance floor, which was a hit last year. The event will run from Friday, June 1 to Monday, June 4, at the Murwillumbah Showgrounds and then again on Wednesday, June 6, to, Sunday, June 10, at Seagulls Club. The main attraction is the Murwillumbah Showgrounds event held on the first Saturday and Sunday that will include a show 'n' shine, art show, music and much more. The Weekly caught up with Wintersun 2.0 organiser Steve Bowman (pictured below) who said the event had already received huge interest. “The first weekend at Murwillumbah Showgrounds will see our show 'n' shine, an art show, markets, a brand new best dressed competition sponsored by Susan Jane Jewellery and of course great music to go with our dance floor,” he said. “This is an event not to be missed and one that’s run by enthusiasts for enthusiasts (and also a spectacle for the public) that is enjoyable and includes all the aspects of the scene. “Included will be the opportunity for entrants to drive/ride and enjoy their vehicles during the event, pin-ups and vintage clothing competition, art and Kulture display, trade stands and some great food. “The name harks back to the old Wintersun festival in Coolangatta which had a great friendly and laid-back atmosphere. “There will be many differences between the old event and Wintersun 2.0 but that atmosphere is something we will strive to create." Mr Bowman said he has a strong desire to keep the event in the Tweed and heaped praise

on the local community for embracing the event last year. “The Tweed is a beautiful area and everyone we’ve dealt with has been friendly and very supportive, I can see a long and prosperous future for the event and the area,” he said. “We hope the event will run in Murwillumbah indefinitely. Dates for the first event are June 2 to June 5 and future events will be around the same time of year.” Mr Bowman said he hopes the event will attract a range of different autos and visitors with favourable weather. “All cars are welcome up to the 1978 cutoff,” he said. “Later model classics are by invitation. We are expecting a large turnout of Hot Rods, Classics, Customs and Muscle cars and classic and modified motorcycles such as Cafe Racers, Bobbers and Classic Choppers. Music will be a mix of Rockabilly, Blues, Country and Rock and Roll.”

T H E 2 0 1 8 Twe e d C o a s t M a r i n e Greenback Fishing Competition is set to be a clash between NSW and Queensland anglers with a State of Origin theme designed to fire up competitors. So far 160 competitors have registered online with over 800 entries expected and around 120 sponsors have come on board for the revamped contest. Project Manager from the Greenback Management Team Stephen Duffield said that the NSW versus Queensland competition was just part of their new approach. “Everyone chooses which state their points will go to so it will be Team NSW versus Team Queensland,” he said. “It happens to be three days after the first State of Origin so that should make it interesting. “As some people won’t catch any fish, there will also be points allocated for buying state shirts and face mug guards. “We already have sold a lot more Queensland shirts but on the day we will have a lot more NSW entrants coming on board. The competition boundaries have also been changed to ensure a more even split of Queensland and NSW entrants. The southern boundary has moved from Evans Head to Ballina to help with compliance issues and the northern boundary has moved to the Queensland border. “Now it includes the whole Tweed River system which wasn’t included before - you couldn’t fish in the Tweed River at all,” Mr Duffield said. “We changed the borders to increase the visitation to the local area.”

Mr Duffield said Tweed Coast Marine have come on board this year as a major sponsor and have donated the major raffle prize. “Tweed Coast Marine is our new major sponsor with naming rights for the first time ever and they are giving us the boat for the major raffle prize,” he said. “In the past we had to buy it so that’s been fantastic. “It costs $7,000 or $8,000 which we used to have to pay out in the past so that’s really helped and is great from a fundraising point of view for our nominated charities. “Alvey has stayed on as a major sponsor of the mens and seniors as well as Tweed Coast Marine which is great. “Mad Keen are selling the shirts and giving us the proceeds, BCF at Ballina are doing the prizes for juniors and Anaconda at West Burleigh for the ladies.” The Greenback didn’t run last year due to a lack of volunteers and resources. and Mr Duffield said they had put together a new management team including 90-year-old Stan Dawson, Laura, Linder, Ian, Mary and himself from the Lions Club with a focus on social media. “There has been a big increase in the number of people looking at our website with much more interest than ever before so we are expecting 800 plus entrants, he said. “We’ve added an extra tailor and men’s prize and it will be run a lot more efficiently on the day so it will wrap up by 1pm on Sunday arvo - not drag as much as it has in the past. “There will also be a Makers and Finders market on the day so it will be a really big event.” Charities that will benefit from the 2018 Greenback are the NSW Volunteer Rescue Association, Tweed Palliative Support, local schools and the Lions Disaster Relief Fund.

Stunning bird shots By Jo Kennett

Tweed Valley Wildlife carer Jane Perston with Red-necked Wallaby joey Myrtle

Adorable Red Kangaroo joey Belah

Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers need your help TWEED VALLEY Wildlife Carers continue to seek community support to help feed a range of hungry mouths including two adorable joeys Myrtle and Belah who dropped by The Weekly office at Queen Street recently. Myrtle is a eight-month old Red-necked Wallaby who was found abandoned at Kunghur after her mother was chased by a dog and was forced to drop her joey. Belah is a seven-month old Red Kangaroo whose mother was hit by a car at Burke and the joey was found by her side. A member of the public came across Belah while driving through the region and brought her back to the Tweed and into the care of Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers. Tweed Valley Wildlife Carer Jane Perston said Myrtle will be released back into the wild at the age of 14-months and

Belah will be transferred west to Dubbo, to another carer. Kangaroo joeys can require care for up to 18 months before being released into the wild. Mrs Perston said the need for more help to ensure our native wildlife’s survival was growing. “The cost to feed the wildlife I care for alone is hundreds per month,” she said. “Even if residents can only help with a few dollars here and there, it helps a lot.” Jane said it was sad to see the amount of road kill including Grey and Red Kangaroos, Wallabys, Koalas and Echidnas. “We see it all the time and it’s sad that often the only time we see Kangaroos, is when they’re run down on the side of the road. Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers coordinator Corina Lever said the cost of

feeding the animals in their care costs hundreds of dollars a month. “We are going through 10 kilos of specialised milk powder for the 12 joeys currently in care with us at the moment,” she said. “The cost just for this amounts to $250 per month.” Anyone who finds a stricken animal is encouraged to phone Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers 24 hours on (02) 6672 4789. Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers is a nonprofit, volunteer organisation that has been making a difference to the lives of the Tweed's sick, injured, orphaned and displaced native animals since 1989. Anyone who would like to make a donation can visit tvwc.org.au or phone (02) 6672 4789 during business hours.

POTTSVILLE RESIDENT Sally Hinton has gained a reputation for taking amazing bird photographs that have won her national and international awards. Born in Murwillumbah, Sally grew up in Papua New Guinea where her father illustrated scientific shell books using photographic plates taken on ‘an aged Bronica square format camera’. “As a six-year-old I was my father’s assistant and as a reward he gave me his old Nikkormat 35mm camera,” Sally said. “Between 2011 and 2017, I combined my three passions wildlife, travel and photography. “I travelled to the Galapagos Islands and Alaska, however, it was Africa that got into my blood and I have returned three times.” Now as the Tweed Shire Council Scientific Officer, who has won numerous international awards for her nature photography, Sally spends her spare time photographing around Norries Headland and Hastings Point. “The Crested Terns are real characters (pictured below) – they have a fascinating courtship ritual where the male catches a fish and returns to the colony using the fish as a gift for a prospective mate,” she said. “This results in a huge amount of squawking, minor squabbles and some rather beautiful dance moves. “I am never disappointed and love the surprises that nature and wildlife produce when you least expect it.” Check out Sally’s work on www.sallyephotos.com/

“By getting up and moving about, your body releases endorphins which trigger a positive feeling in the body,” she said. “Combine this with the sense of purpose the program provides, the social engagement, the routine and feeling of something to look forward to each week and the program is changing the participant’s mental state, their outlook on life and the way they interact. “The benefits of which impact not only the individual, but the support network that surrounds that person. “If you’re happy in what you’re doing, and it’s making you smile, your nurturing your personal well-being.” Program Instructor Feonie, makes a point of being silly with the participants to break down the barriers, to remove any nerves and to encourage laughter within the group. “The participants laugh with one another, they support each other, and

they celebrate each other’s successes,” she said. Move to the Groove runs on Mondays each week for a four-hour period. Participants warm up with Tai Chi style movements, enjoy a light morning tea, seated choreography development and practice, lunch and then the floor dancing. Research indicates that by engaging in social dancing, it lowered the seniors’ risk of dementia by 76 per cent. Furthermore, the movements must change regularly, which is why in the Move to the Grove program participants are encouraged to come up with the movements each week and choose the songs they like. This way they are engaged and actively thinking.

NATIONAL VOLUNTEER Week is the ideal time to acknowledge Vinnies volunteers throughout the North Coast who are helping improve the lives of countless people in need. Executive Officer Michael Timbrell has thanked the 1,083 volunteers who staff the 28 Vinnies shops between Tweed Heads and Port Macquarie-Laurieton, and more than 400 volunteers who run St Vincent de Paul Society’s social support centres that assist people doing it tough. “This year’s Volunteer Week theme of ‘Give a Little, Change a Lot’ couldn’t be more appropriate,” Mr Timbrell said. “Every personal contribution makes a real difference in the lives of people struggling to pay rent, put food on the family table, cope with rising electricity bills and the need to provide for their kids. More people are homeless, or at risk of homelessness, than is generally recognised, and this is a priority area for the society.” He said many shop volunteers have been with Vinnies for years, some working for just half a day per week, others for a couple of days. “Our shop volunteers range in age from their twenties to their nineties. They may work front-of-house, managing tills and shop displays, or sorting through donated clothing and other goods. “The money saved on wage bills literally amounts to millions of dollars and all of this income is spent on providing support for local people in need.” Mr Timbrell also praised the largely unseen efforts of the society’s conference volunteers who conduct interviews with local people, often parents with young children, who are facing financial difficulties and consequent stress. “Our conference members meet with people in real need, and the stories they hear can be harrowing,” he said. It takes dedication to volunteer for this role, and, like the clients they help, we truly appreciate their efforts. “Without them we would be living in a very different world.”

MOVE TO the Groove is a highly engaging, social and collaborative dance program by Lifebridge Australia, for elderly residents. Lifebridge Australia CEO Bronwyn Mitchell said Move to the Groove was the company’s latest program to be launched, only six weeks ago, and already it’s achieving outstanding results. “We’re witnessing the powerful impact it is having on the lives of our customers and their carers,” she said. Participants in the program are aged over 65 and experience a range of conditions including dementia, isolation, mobility restrictions, depression and more. “The group program works at an individual level seeking to overcome such barriers through a range of individualised techniques,” Mrs Mitchell said. Lifebridge Program Instructor Feonie Pegler said they recently had one elderly man join with early onset dementia, who has struggled to adopt any of the movements of the program. “We provided him with visual props, got him counting the beat of the song, gave names to each of the steps and guided him with each of the movements,” she said. “To our delight within three weeks, he was doing the steps on his own.” Mrs Pegler said the program exercises the body and the brain, delivering therapeutic benefits to participants.

The Tweed community is as diverse as it is valued and with this week being National Volunteers Week, the rescue helicopter team wanted to highlight its unbelievably generous volunteers. “Since our early beginnings, volunteers have been integral to our operations and in 2018, they remain an important part of who we are and what we do,” A Westpac spokesperson said. “There are more than 500 people throughout Northern NSW who wear one of our red volunteer shirts and are part of 7 Helicopter Op Shops, 2 Volunteer Support Groups and multiple raffle tables, who generously give their time to raise awareness and funds that help to ensure nobody will ever have to pay to be assisted by the Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter. “Volunteers stand alongside our partners in NSW Ambulance and NSW Health, our supporters in the corporate sector and the community, to help us provide the best possible aeromedical search and rescue service in Australia. “Our volunteers make an immense contribution to the Service every day. You might have noticed them in your community proudly wearing their red shirts at local events, shopping centres, op shops, cooking up a storm at sporting grounds or hardware stores, or you might have added a few coins to the tin they were shaking. “While our trained engineers, pilots, aircrew officers and medical teams from NSW Ambulance and NSW Health deliver people to emergency and provide medical

“The whole getting older and being responsible thing is getting in the way of my fun” - Anonymous

Funds needed to aid Tweed Palliative Care Get along to VIEW Club There’s also a renewed call for donations this week as part of Palliative Care Week. National Palliative Care Week is an annual awareness raising week organised by Palliative Care Australia. The theme for this year’s National Palliative Care Week is ‘What matters most?’ and it will be held from May 20 to 26. National Palliative Care Week is supported by the Department of Health and aims to raise awareness and understanding about palliative care in the Australian community. Tweed Palliative Support and Wedgetail Retreat rely entirely on donations and funds raised through the Queen Street secondhand store. “Despite saving the state government hundreds of thousands of dollars annually, our valued palliative care services are not funded by NSW Health,” Mrs Dennis said. “So we need to raise over $500,000 each year to directly cover operational costs such as providing 24/7 palliative care nurses, up-to-date medical equipment, nourishing hospice meals and volunteer training. “We appreciate all the support we can get from members of the public and would ask they keep that support going to enable this vital local service.” To find out more about how to donate to Tweed Palliative Support & Wedgetail Retreat phone: (02) 6672 8459.

TWIN TOWNS Day VIEW Club proudly supports The Smith Family’s Learning for Life program which provides disadvantaged students with financial assistance, emotional support and access to educational programs to help them get the most from their education. Members told The Weekly they were delighted recently when the CEO of South Tweed Sports, Angus Southwell, presented the VIEW Club’s treasurers with a cheque for an additional student. Ladies who are interested in fun and friendship and in finding out more about how our club supports The Smith Family are invited to join the club for lunch on Thursday, June 7, at the South Tweed Sports Club from 11am. The cost is $25 for a two course meal and tea or coffee. The guest speaker for the month is environmentalist Ian Meek. To book phone Freda on (07) 5524 1357 by the Monday before.

Donations can also be made by bank transfer to the following account: Southern Cross Credit Union BSB: 722 744 Account number: 88760 Reference: Please use your name as the banking reference and contact the office so that we can send you a Tax Receipt.

Brad helping keep coast beautiful By Jo Kennett DURING THE early hours of Wednesday morning, May 23, there was a lone figure on the headland at Hastings Point picking up rubbish. The Weekly stopped to have a chat with the man and to find out what was motivating his actions. The man’s name is Brad Shepherd, who is from Bli Bli on the Sunshine Coast, and is travelling around cleaning up wherever he goes. “I clean up pretty much every day,” he said. “I want to make the world a better place.”

Brad’s motto is simple: “Be the change in the world you want to see”. “If everyone did something then things would change,” he added. “I do it because I love this world. Australia is an awesome place and if anyone wants to visit beautiful places like this, please pick up rubbish after yourself.” Mr Shepherd said he had just seen a whale off the headland. “That was pretty awesome, you have to be early to catch them.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Are you a coastal or valley rubbish collector like Brad. We’d love to hear from you. Send us an email to editor@ theweekly.net.au or phone (02) 6672 4443.

Lifebridge Australia has been supporting the Aged and people with Disability in our community for over 30 years.

THE FUTURE of the iconic Tweed Valley Banana Festival is going from strength to strength this year after the Bananacoast Credit Union (BCU) Murwillumbah Branch announced its support as a major sponsor for one of the state’s oldest festivals. The announcement is a huge win for the Banana Festival which has faced several setbacks in recent years including disruptions due to the 2017 Tweed flood. BCU Murwillumbah Store Supervisor Paul Salmon said the local branch was happy to throw its support behind the festival and the staff were keen to be involved. “It’s a great opportunity and we are delighted to be a part of the Banana Festival as major sponsors and show our support for this iconic local festival,” Mr Salmon said. The sponsorship package includes $5,000 towards the Tweed Valley Banana Festival as well as a range of support and additional gifts. Banana Festival coordinator, through the APEX Club of Murwillumbah, Carol Mudge heaped praise on BCU Murwillumbah for the sponsorship and support. “We are so delighted to have BCU as a platinum sponsor,” Ms Mudge said.

Fingal elder pens children’s book

AND BRAND NEW HERE TOO

By Jo Kennett

Shop 1, 131 Murwillumbah Street, Murwillumbah

FINGAL ELDER and founder of Juraki Surf Culture Joel Slabb has created his first children’s book which he hopes will inspire young people. “Juraki The Saltwater Hero” is based on the story of Churakai, an Indigenous man who was recognised as the original lifesaver of the Coolangatta and Greenmount area and saved many lives. “Writing a children’s book was something I had wanted to do for a long time,” Mr Slabb told The Weekly. “I had difficulties going through school. Like a lot of Indigenous kids I had hearing problems - one in four Indigenous kids have hearing problems which is possibly genetic. “The whole point is to make it colourful for kids and an enjoyable read, especially for young Indigenous kids.” Mr Slabb said the story of Churakai was one idea he picked out of many. “We have a lot of stories - most of our stories and history is passed down orally,” he said. “I just picked out this one - I wanted something that was meaningful and inspiring to our young people. “This is culturally relevant now and it’s to do with the work we do with Juraki Surf Culture. “I was working on making Juraki’s story more relevant as a child’s book and for all ages.” Mr Slabb said the book took about six months to put together which included taking staged photographs which were turned into the illustrations for the book. “That was really fun staging the photos,” he said. “We used our kids and it was really exciting.

“We walked through the bush and did bush tucker photos and spent some afternoons on the beach photographing as well.” Mr Slabb said that so far the feedback had been excellent. “We had 300 copies printed but just in the last two days since it was released we have had a lot of interest so we will probably print some more,” he said. “The feedback from school teachers has been great. They are really excited and so it’s really positive. “We used some Aboriginal language in it it’s good to keep that going especially for our young people. “The kids love it so it’s all been really good.” Juraki The Saltwater Hero is available for sale on the Juraki Surf Culture website at https://www.jurakisurf.com/store

The HUB Baptist Church opens in Murwillumbah Road workers assaulted TWEED RESIDENTS celebrated the opening of the The HUB Baptist Church in Murwillumbah on Sunday, May 20, with hundreds attending. The former Murwillumbah Baptist Church closed its doors towards the end of last year and plans have now been realised to reopen the site with a new church known as The Hub Baptist Church, located at 10 Eveleigh Street. “The Hub Baptist Church Murwillumbah is a brand-new church, not the old one reopening,” Pastor John Harris said. There are three other Hub Baptist Churches already with one in Grafton, Ocean Shores and Tweed Heads, which have been well received by the community. The launch of The Hub Baptist Church Murwillumbah began with lots of laughter and lively conversation, along with a sausage sizzle and cakes. There was also a giant inflatable slide plus other fun activities for children and youth. “Friends and supporters also came from Tweeds Heads, Ocean Shores and Grafton to support new pastors John and Jo Harris as the newly renovated building was opened for inspection,” The Hub secretary Greg Passmore said. “A large crowd heard how the new project has been gathering momentum over six months and people were able to see the great progress made on the facilities. “Some completion work and finishing touches are still needed, but the two-story building, which looks out on a large park area, has already undergone extensive refurbishment. “The Hub team have refurbished the interior of the church buildings, with plans to update the exterior. “The makeover includes a radical redesign of the main auditorium, a

Pastors and members of The HUB Baptist Church gathered for the opening

brand-new toilet block, and a new and modern downstairs kitchen attached to a large eating and activity area. “As well as local helpers, a small army of volunteers (including skilled tradesmen) from around the other Hub Churches in the region has worked for weeks on the major renovations.” The celebration service took place from 3pm and attracted so many people the building was full and attendees were gathered outside in the beautiful late afternoon sun. The Hub group is a multi-campus grouping of local churches in the Northern Rivers region begun by Pastor Stephen Smith, who now leads The Hub Baptist Church, Tweed Heads. The Hub

Churches are part of the NSW Baptist Association. Regional Baptist minister, John Wilson of Lismore, and a strong supporter of the new initiative in Murwillumbah, was present for the fun and celebration and was delighted with the progress. A key motto of The Hub churches is: “Making a difference in our community”, and Church Secretary Greg Passmore said he was looking forward to seeing The Hub in Murwillumbah serving local people and families and to “bring the blessings of God’s love and the message of Christ to them”. Regular Sunday services start this coming Sunday, May 27 at 9.30am and everyone is welcome to come and join in or just check out the new Hub Church.

TWEED SHIIRE Council is again appealing to motorists to “keep their cool” if they are delayed at roadworks following the third reported incident of motorist aggression and assault of Tweed road workers this year. The latest incident, in which a driver drove at and hit a traffic controller on Morton Street, Chinderah, on Monday, May 11, has been reported to police along with the vehicle’s registration number. Council said that last month, a vehicle drove at and nudged a traffic controller working on the Blackspot Program on Kyogle Road. “And, in March a motorist stopped and verbally abused a traffic controller on the Blackspot Program on Tweed Valley Way behind Tumbulgum Village,” Council said in a media statement. Council said it has details of the vehicle involved in the Kyogle Road incident and photographic evidence of the Tweed Valley Way incident, together with a report from the motorist following the abusive driver. These are also being followed up with police. At a meeting of Northern NSW councils in Grafton last week, the Roads & Maritime Authority also reported an escalation in road rage incidents against road workers. “In the Tweed there are a lot of roadworks happening at the moment so it should not be a surprise to any motorist that you might encounter a stop / slow flagman and a short delay wherever you are travelling,” General Manager Troy Green said. “We work to keep any delay to less than five minutes but, on major construction or repair jobs, this is not always possible. Still, there is no excuse for abuse.” In August last year, a 43-year-old man from Terragon was fined $500 and placed on a 12-month good-behaviour bond after pleading guilty to a charge of assault occasioning actual bodily harm after a road worker was injured on Tyalgum Road, Eungella, in November 2016. “Any motorist who assaults a road worker can expect to be charged and prosecuted because it’s simply not on,” Mr Green said “Traffic controllers are out there doing their jobs keeping road users safe. They deserve to go home to their families at the end of their shifts just like every other worker.”

THE BIFF was back. I don’t condone violence or fighting at all but it was entertaining for a change. Dylan Walker probably copped what has been coming for a while as he is one of the best at getting under people’s skin and Curtis Scott was baited into it. Walker obviously took it in good spirits but will spend some time on the sidelines due to the injury sustained. I think Koriasai’s involvement was poor-with the ‘Coward Punch’ campaign in full swing, his involvement was a bad look on the game. Another bad look was Milford’s intentional pass into the Roosters player behind the ruck. Rubbish play and not in the spirit of the game. In saying that the Broncos may have found some form in one of the best games of the year. The Mitchell vs Roberts battle was enthralling. Mitchell was scintillating in the first half and Roberts’ try to level the game was just amazing - as was the match winner. Unfortunately, all the talk was about the Napa tackle. He went in hard, don’t get me wrong, however, I think it was just a mistimed, ill-judged effort that unfortunately ended up in a broken jaw for Sims. A closer inspection was a ‘reckless/ careless’ tackle and probably got what he deserved from the match review committee.

at the Footy with Quinny Great to see the Titans back in the winner’s circle at Cbus on the weekend and the Ponga try showed again what a special talent he certainly is. The car trip home for the Cleary’s would have been quality entertainment with Nathan leading the Panthers to another victory over Dad’s Tigers. Maloney will be one half in Fittler’s Blue’s team but who partners him will be interesting, I’d like to see Cleary but Keary is playing well also. I got to three junior games on the weekend plus a day at the senior footy watching four contests. The Shoosh round is a great concept and I was impressed by the behaviour of the spectators and also the quality of footy. A big congrats to the NRRRL representative team who won by plenty on the weekend against North Coast. Star Cudgen junior and all round athlete Caleb Ziebel will be getting fitted for a country jersey and hopefully a few others with him after the final against Monaro in Camben this weekend. Good luck to the lads. See you at the Footy Quinny

Kinship Festival draws record crowds

Teleahsia Togo and Zalia Scott

Corinne Russell with Lola and baby Penny visited from the Gold Coast

THE KINSHIP Festival exceeded expectations and attracted a record crowd on Saturday, May 19, with an estimated 3,500 people gathering in Knox Park. The festival was coordinated by the local aboriginal community who invited all to connect, share and participate in the wisdom and practice of healthy families, strong values and vibrant community culture. Visitors were invited to take part in the community corroboree and join dance groups from across the region from as far as Beaudesert and Grafton in celebration of kinship and connection. Several residents told The Weekly they were amazed by the turnout at Knox Park which had exceeded initial estimates of around 2,000 people in 2017. “It’s amazing to see the town buzzing and so busy,” one stallholder said. Once again, the central art piece was a community sand sculpture designed by local artist, Uncle Magpie, and created by children with the help of indigenous elders and parents to become a stunning art piece. The art piece will remain in Knox Park for the duration of the Murwillumbah Art Trail 2018. The event included an outstanding line up of local and visiting musicians including OKA and The Mangrove Jack Band, who entertained onlookers. There was also plenty to see and do throughout the day with demonstrations of traditional Indigenous art making and lessons with a free lunch of bush tucker.

FILMS th Mia wi

THE DIVINE ORDER

If you remember the film Suffragette (2015) about the struggle for women’s voting rights in England in 1912, you will probably be quite shocked when you see the film The Divine Order which documents a similar plight for Swiss women. Why? Because it happened in 1971..!

Caitlin pictured with her sister Tia and mum Melissa before she jetted off to the USA

Ms Meeves said the club was throwing in the jumping castles and food stalls for free. “They are going to match all proceeds at the door which is so incredibly generous, the generosity has been wonderful,” she said. Ms Meeves has been in touch with Caitlin’s family and said that she has had first round of chemotherapy with the new drug. “She did have a bad reaction to it she was very ill for the last week,” she said. “She starts her second lot of chemo as soon as her platelets increase and then they will be able to do a scan to see how successful the treatment has been to date in reducing the size of the tumor.

“Caitlin has managed to go and see a baseball match which she said was the highlight of her time there so far which she thoroughly enjoyed and she is getting out and about when she’s feeling up to it.” Caitlin has free accommodation at Ronald McDonald house but still has to pay half the treatment up front and that’s $120,000 and they will have to come up with the other half soon too. “That’s why we really need the community to come and join us on Sunday to support Caitlin,” she said. “The treatment should take effect after the second round of chemo which will be really good.” If anyone has any items to donate for the auction they can contact me on 0439 130 858.

Would you believe it? Switzerland, the country famous for its wealth, political neutrality and high standards of living – supposedly including education – did not allow women to vote until then..! While all around the world hippies had started the sexual revolution and the women’s liberation movement was spreading, Swiss women were still at the mercy of their husbands who were running their lives, according to the “divine order”, as one of the film’s protagonists declares. As infuriating as the subject matter is, The Divine Order takes a humorous approach to the story told through the life of Nora, a young and devoted housewife who lives with her husband, two children and a grumpy father-in-law in a small village that seems stuck in the past, almost in medieval times. Nora becomes a suffragette quite accidentally while her husband is away on military duty. A referendum on women’s rights to vote is going to take place for the second time – the first in 1959 had resulted in a defeat for the women – and Nora ends up joining the few anti-conformist women in the village and leading the political campaign for the vote, which will bring those women not only to win the referendum but also to get in touch with their bodies and their sexuality. In this gentle, humorous but poignant multi-award winning movie the women characters are fully developed and rounded while the men (and those women who oppose women’s rights) look almost like caricatures, making the movie both an interesting history lesson and an entertaining piece of filmmaking.

A BIG fundraising event for Ewing Sarcoma sufferer Caitlin Ambrose, who is currently undergoing treatment in the USA, will be held at the Cabarita Beach Bowls and Sports Club on Sunday, May 27. One of the organisers, Meredith Meeves, said it should be a fun afternoon and they were hoping for a big turnout and support from the local community. “It will be great for the family with jumping castles and the kids playground to raise funds for Caitlin and her vital treatment in the US,” Ms Meeves said. “There will be foot-tapping Irish music and well-known fidler Rabbit Robinson rousing the crowd. “Anthony Sharpe who performed on The Voice will be playing too, as well as comedian Ellen Briggs.” Pop up food stalls, lucky door prizes, and auctions of footy and surfing memorabilia will also feature. Ms Meeves said that they are making paper cranes to send to Caitlin. “We are making 1,000 cranes to send to Caitlin with individual messages as a symbol of hope, healing and love,” she said. “We have started the process already. We will send them to her in Texas. If any school wants to be involved in making the cranes I will provide coloured paper and instructions. They can call me.

OCEAN’S 8

MAT18 IS already being heralded a roaring success with businesses recording a boom and projections of up to 7,000 Tweed locals and visitors converging on the Valley to immerse themselves in one of the shire’s most unique art experiences. But the show’s not over yet with a series of events set to take place tonight (Thursday, May 24) and continuing each day and night until the final day on Sunday, May 27. MAT18 art director Dev Lengjel told The Weekly the trail is a huge success with plenty of sales for artists, local businesses “extremely busy” in town and a strong future for years to come. “We’ve already recorded more than 4,000 people taking the trail to discover the incredible range of artworks on offer,” he said. “We’re hoping to exceed 7,000 people into town by our Sunday close. “Sales have been very good and encouraging for many artists and local businesses have enjoyed a boom.” Dev said some businesses were so busy they ran out of stock. “I’ve heard from a few local restaurants who ran out of food,” he said. “We’ve had visitors from as far as Brisbane, Gold Coast, Byron Bay and of course many interested locals. “And it was all made possible thanks to our amazing sponsors and volunteers.” Dev said the remaining events included tonight’s VIP dinner which starts at Jack Quilters and is sold out, Friday is the special art battle between Canada and the Aussies

which is also sold out and finally the closing party which will take place at Budd Park on Saturday, May 26, from 1pm to 5.30pm.

Featured Business

If you are a small business owner needing an experienced Xero Certiﬁed Partner Bookkeeper who can offer so much more than just bank reconciliations, I invite you to start a conversation with me. Have you been building your small business for a few years now and all is going to plan except the books are starting to get away from you? Are you still ‘old school’ with much of your systems, communications, tax and invoicing? You’d love a PA but the thought of paying super and PAYG seems over the top, beside which you don’t need full-time support. Then I can really help you. This is one of the most common statements I hear from my clients: “I just need someone to take the reins of my ofﬁce procedures, but I don’t have time to explain it all or set up a procedural manual. I’d love it if someone could just take care of it.”

AIR CONDITIONING

I have been supporting small business for 15 years with this primary purpose always in mind; support clients to do what they do best, allowing them to be as efficient as possible. I have a interest in working with clients who want to improve their administrative and bookkeeping systems by implementing the most up to date technological advances and streamlining other systems and practices. I have my finger on the pulse, am reliable and love to ‘get amongst’ my clients’ culture, becoming part of the team. I want to work with you to make sure your goals (both in and out of the workplace) are realised. You are busy, even overwhelmed so contact me, ‘Beck the Bookkeeper’, so I can get started with finding your solution. hello@beckthebookkeeper.com.au | 0432 819 189

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately? Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

A sacriﬁcial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efﬁciently working system and a costly replacement. Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion. THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS FOR A LIMITED TIME we will check your anode in the Tweed & Gold Coast area FREE OF CHARGE.

“REMEMBER YOU CAN’T LOSE, NO ANODE REPLACEMENT NO CHARGE” Comes with a 5 year warranty ~ Make your Hot Water System last for 30 years!

Holding Shot

with Judy Tuckey

THE ANNUAL State Inter Zone Championship for seniors, formatted for players 60 years and over who have qualified through selection at zone level, was conducted at Figgy Bowls Club last week. The 16 zone sides, consisting of three teams of four players in each, are matched in pools of four for sectional play with the top team from each section progressing to the semis. Zone One was represented at this tournament by John Turner TBD (S), John Wilson NRE, Ken Coyte TBD, Terry Lee TBD, Peter Forrester CRD (S), Graham Meaney CRD, Gary Simon NRE, Terry McFadden NRW, Ian Parker CRD (S), Peter Duncan TBD, Greg Barrack TBD, Steve Massey TBD, Martin Holden NRW (Reserve) and it was pleasing to note that six Tweed Byron District lads were selected in the squad that contested this event. Round 1, and playing brilliantly against Sydney Northern, the lads came in with two wins with nine points on the board. Round 2 against Central Coast was totally different story. Although playing strongly, all teams were outplayed by their opposition, the eventual winner of this tournament. Result – 0 points. Round 3 against Hunter, and still in the running with only minimal points separating the four sides, the lads knuckled

Raiders too good for Kyogle THE TWEED Coast Raiders remain undefeated after beating Kyogle 36-8 at Kyogle on Sunday, May 20. The Raiders controlled the game with the first try going to Dan Willoughby and the second to Kalani Hensby.

down to some hard bowling in an endeavour to make the semi. However, it was not to be. Forrester and Parker’s teams had good wins, and with Turner’s team falling short of the mark, just missed out on overall points. With very close scoring in the all games won, and not won, and pitted against some of the best zone sides in the State, the lads did very well to win four out of the nine rinks played.

Kyogle scored next taking it to 8-4 before Willoughby crossed again. Kyogle was still in the game all through the first half, completing a lot of sets but at half time, after Daryl Brooks scored a runaway try for the Raiders the score was 20-8. The Raiders started well in the second half, not making a mistake for the first 15 minutes and Kyogle couldn’t keep up the pace. Justin King scored the opening try of the second half for Tweed Coast. Connor Hickey went over next to take the score to 30-8 with

Meanwhile, back on the home front, Cudgen Leagues and Kingscliff clubs came together for their annual Digger’s Day last week, a special day of the year to support the Kingscliff Branch of Legacy. With 90 war widows in their area alone, funds are always stretched. Another successful event from these two clubs with over $1,000 being raised for this very worthy cause. Way to go, fellas. See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

Kyogle unable to match the Raiders fitness. Players player Fletcher Wyver, who tackled all the game and had a lot of good runs making a lot of metres, scored his first try of the season up the middle of the field. Best players for the Raiders were Fletcher Wyver, Dan Willoughby, Daniel ’the Rocket’ Ross and Luke Toon. Next week will be a big top of the table clash for the Raiders at home at Les Burger Field against competition leaders Cudgen. Cudgen have set the benchmark for the last couple of

years and the Raiders will go in the underdogs, but the team is excited about the match-up. Raiders Reserve Grade lost 46-12 while the Under 18s beat Kyogle 26-0 The Raiderettes had a great game against the Kyogle ladies winning 38-0. Kristen Molloy was nominated as player of the week for being ‘an all-rounder in the game bringing many attributes to the side such as speed, endurance, coordination and the ability to read the game which helps us in defence as well as making metres in attack’.

Could this be WORLD

TITLE for

Stephanie Gilmore? WELL THE WORLD Title race moves to Bali from this weekend, with the Carona Pro at Keramas. Stephanie Gilmore has extended her lead, and looks in great form after her win in Brazil. Not only will the men and women of the World Tour going to rip into Keramas, but they will also be finishing up the Margaret River event at Uluwatu on the Island of the Gods. Both are waves of quality and power, which should suit Gilmore down to the ground. What is a good sign is that Gilmore won in waves at Brazil, that were not so powerful, so to me

it looks like she has got her game on, and I reckon at Keramas, it will suit her down to the ground. I can feel a seventh World Title for Steph on the way! For the guys, Julian Wilson looks in great form, even though though Filipe Toledo will be one of the surfers to watch at Keramas. With the aerial talent on the world tour at the moment, I hope they have got the flight paths altered, otherwise Toledo, Wilson, and others could be causing havoc to the the air traffic controllers in Bali. I would not write off Joel Parkinson, or Wade Carmichael, after Carmichael’s result in Brazil, it shows that there is still place for pure power and style in surfing. So it should be. Also Joel Parkinson is the defending champion! The forecast is looking really solid for the first days of the event, with a huge swell marching up from the Southern Ocean, with 5-6 metre swells due in Margaret River by Friday, and that means two days later it will be in Bali. So tune in from mid-morning on Sunday and the action should be on.

Big Bucks Up for Grabs at the BK Classic!!

Well local surfers get your entries in for a shot at the big cash prizes at the 2018 BK Memorial Classic, held over the Queen’s Birthday Weekend at Byron Bay. First prize for the men is $5,000, and for the Women is $2,000, so a world class field is expected. The event also has “Wilsy’s X-Groms” so

this event is one for all the family, with divisions from under 10’s to the over 60’s, it has even seen 3 generations surf in the same contest. The event waa known a the Byron Easter Classic, and then was changed to the BK Classic in honour of Byron Bay Boardriders legendary President, Ben King. Anyone that met Ben had a new friend straight away, such was his great smile and love for people in general. Never was Bens popularity so evident than when Ben passed away and a paddle out was held at Main Beach with over 600 people attending, that was how well liked Ben was. Following Bens passing the Easter Classic was renamed The Ben King Surf Classic.but with the growth of the town, the Byron Bay Bluesfest, it was too crowded for surfers to get accommodation for the weekend, so the event was moved to the Queen’s Birthday, this year on the 9th, 10, & 11th of June. The winners list is a who’s who of surfing, with Coolangatta lad Billy Grant is recognised as the first winner and he was followed by some great surfers like Tommy Peterson, Richard Marsh, Simon Law, Kieren Perrow, Danny Wills, Mark Richardson, Jock Barnes, Yerin Brown, Stu Kennedy, and Garrett Parkes to name a few.

PERFECT SAILING conditions delivered an enjoyable afternoon on the river for the first race of the Tweed Valley Sailing Clubs winter series on Sunday. A group of spectators enjoyed the afternoon from the official club tent on the river bank at Fingal and watched as a strong fleet of 18 boats and 36 crew lined up at the start, with all boats getting away quickly. A steady north-easterly breeze, opposed by an ebbing tide is a favorite condition for sailors on the river and a long course on the Fingal reach was completed by the first boat in 88 minutes with the last finisher home in 133 minutes. 16ft Corsairs were again the major class. 7 boats completed, with 21 crew, and most carrying spinnakers. Racing was very close throughout the fleet, but first to finish was “Swell Lady” 119’39” (Monique Smith, Matt Andrews & Rigby Andrews), only getting the lead on the last few tacks to the finish and beating “Minnow” 119’57” (Bill Fenelon, Tara Beth & Matt Collnan) by 15 seconds, after Minnow had lead the entire race. Completion between these two boats in the past four seasons has been intense, with most races coming down to seconds at the end. Next in the Corsairs was “Melita 3” (Karen Vidler, Alison Blatcher & Marg Walgers) getting third place, 3 minutes back, after a well sailed race and without using a spinnaker. Relegated to 4th place today after a jammed spinnaker refused to drop, was “Keen as”, (Mark Reynolds, Craig Foley and Taj Krasna.) This team is improving every week and had a great race today, leading briefly before disaster struck. The “Keen as” boys are lining up for a win anytime soon. All 7 Corsairs finished within 10 minutes, after a long race. This class has proved itself as an excellent racing boat for the Tweed River,

with Bill Fenelon and the clubs fleet has grown to 14 boats. Also racing today were the single handed Olympic Class Laser fleet. 6 boats competed in a very tight formation and all boats finished within 3 minutes, and well ahead of the Corsairs. It was an ideal day for the Laser class and the bunch of 6 quickly cleared away from the Corsair fleet and were never to be seen again until the BBQ. First to finish was Peter Fell, 110’21”, a safe 50 seconds ahead of second place Maurie Meyer 11’15”, and third Gary McCrohan 112’15’. And 9 minutes ahead of the first Corsair. The clubs fleet of Lasers is also growing, and competition is of a very high standard. Only 2 boats competed in the 2 handed 14ft class, fastest was Taser “Hippocampus” (Mike Mansted & Kynan Luescher), and a new boat with the club, MG 14 “On & Off” (David and Hugh Robinson) Fastest time today, 88’00”, went to a visitor from Southport YC, a “Mosquito” catamaran, sailed solo by Brett Kelly. Brett recovered from a bad start and slowly chased down race leader Hobie 16 “Sledder” (Dave Chester and Isaac Poulsen), getting in front on the last lap and winning by 50 seconds. Both these multihulls completed the course 20 minutes ahead of the first Mono hull. A very big “thank you” goes out to the team who support us on the water and make sailing possible. Our 2 rescue boat teams today, Robert Ormsby, Adrian Colnan, Tim Andrews, and Tully Andrews. And our official team, Timekeepers and start flags, Suzanne Blatcher, Val Skinner and Barrie Callanan. The Clubs next race will be at Fingal Head on Sunday the 3rd of June. Briefing at 12:00 Start at 1pm.

Hornets continue winning streak

THE CUDGEN Hornets remain undefeated after taking down second place Mullumbimby 44-36 at Mullumbimby on May 20. Hornets coach Pat Rosser said it was an exciting game with 80 points scored. “We got away to a really good start and ended up 18-0 mid-way through the first half,” Rosser said. “Then Mullum came back and scored two or three quick tries before the break and they played quite an expansive game and threw the footy around a fair bit and scored some points. Hornet maintained their lead throughout the game but there was a two-point gap at one stage. Cudgen sealed the game quite late with a try to give them an eight-point buffer, retaining their position on top of the ladder. “Mullum play quite a different game to most teams,” Rosser said.

“They throw a fair bit at you in attack and are constantly asking questions of you defensively.” Best performers for Cudgen were Caleb Ziebell, Sam Grant and Connor Mills. “Both Caleb Ziebell and Sam Grant backed up from a rep game the day before which they also won so they did really well, Rosser said. Hornets take on Raiders on Sunday May 27 at Les Burger Field Cabarita. Coach Rosser said it was always a really entertaining game against the Raiders. “The local rivalry plays out on the field which is always entertaining so we are looking forward to that. “Tweed Coast are unbeaten and they are always really tough at home and are playing some quality footy so we need to be disciplined with our process.”

THE MURWILLUMBAH Mustangs A-Grade side managed to win a nailing biting round seven game against a strong Ballina Seagulls side at Kingsford Smith Park on Saturday, May 19. Mustangs A-Grade manager Tim Booth told The Weekly that the win had both Ballina and Mustangs supporters on the edge of their seats despite the game starting as an all Seagulls affair. “Ballina got off to a great start in the first half and the Mustangs let them get away,” Mr Booth said. “It wasn’t until the later part of the first half that Mustangs answered back with some outstanding work by Wade Riley, Jack Bishop and Jake Vickery. “The Mustangs started to rally, but they were still down 26/10 with 15 minutes remaining in the second half, when the game turned.” Mr Booth said a few dominate carries through the forwards from Dylan Nash, Hayden Dominic and a lift in direction from Veteran utility Dylan Smith at hooker, allowed the Mustangs to turn a corner.

“It was huge effort in the last minutes of the game with three consecutive tries thanks to a strong forward pack,” Mr Booth said. “And in a nail biting finish Riley Yates (pictured below) scored a solo try under the posts with only 90 seconds left on the clock. “Wade Kelly converted and brought home the win by two points (26/28).”

THE CASUARINA Beach Barbarians had a 36-21 win against Southern Cross University on Saturday, May 19 at Brunswick Heads. According to coach Adam Leach the team had a strong first half and at half time the score was 26-9. “In the second half we lost intensity which allowed Southern Cross back in and they scored three tries to our one,” Leach said. “It was a bit frustrating at the end and a bit disappointing that we didn’t maintain the

intensity of the first half but we did enough to get the win and I was never really worried. “We are now starting to climb the ladder and will play Byron at Byron this weekend, Saturday May 26.” Kai George scored two tries, Webb Lillis, Josh Harman, Jamie Laidlaw also scored, Vitori Buatava made four conversions and Kai George kicked a penalty goal. The Barbarians Second Grade side played Mullumbimby at Brunswick. At half time it was 14-5 against last year’s grand finalists and despite playing well, Mullumbimby won 47-7.
