Special Feature...

How to Zero Your Power Bill - and Stay Connected to the Grid On the 1st July power prices increased by 20% in NSW. Solar Feed in Tariffs doubled. In this special report you will find out how you can get the most benefit from solar power on your house and minimise the impact of higher power prices.

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

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

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

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

Install 5-8 kW of Solar Panels and Batteries if Export is Limited If Essential Energy will let you export 5 kWh or more to the grid, then stacking your roof with as many solar panels as possible will work well for you. If export is limited, consider storing extra power in a battery bank for night time use. A combination of solar for export, self use maximised during the day and battery storage is a great strategy to bring your bill closer to zero for medium households with 3-4 people.

If You Use More Than 25 kWh per Day...

Install 8+ kW of Solar Panels and Solar Batteries

Export 5 kWh to the grid, use as much as you can during the day and store power for night time use in a larger bank of solar batteries. Power prices are expected to rise by another 50% in the next 2 years, so everything you put in now will work even better in the years to come. Get a free energy plan from 888 Solar Tek because every home is different and you need help to get your solar system sized right and working perfectly.

Solar Batteries Ensure You Never Have Blackouts in the Storm Season

Solar Rebate to Drop in 2018 But Don’t Panic!

Every year, for the next 14 years, the value of subsidies for new installations of solar panels will fall. The payment is made based on the installation date, so many solar companies are getting people into a panic to sign up now or miss out. The incremental decrease is about $300 less for a 6 kW solar system installed after 31st Dec 2017.

Don’t Panic! 888 Solar Tek will pay the full 2017 rebate for any system ORDERED before 31st of Dec 2017 regardless of install date.

You also get 2 Extra Panels Free with any Solar System

Until the end of November 2017, 888 Solar Tek will add two extra panels to each New solar system ordered for FREE! You get 2 extra 270 Watt, tier 1 Seraphim solar panels - over half a kW more power with our highest quality Seraphim panels - the first panel in the world to ever pass the Photon Labs independent torture test. You will also receive FREE solar WiFi monitoring, setup on your phone, tablet or computer & expert tuition on how to get the most from your solar system.

Return and earn scheme angers retailers NSW Environment Minister, Gabrielle Upton, told the ABC that there would eventually be more than 500 collection points across the state, but no specifics were outlined about the Northern Rivers.

Labor’s Shadow Minister for the North Coast Walt Secord, slammed the scheme labelling it a “bungled process”.

“I would expect that there would be several sites at the minimum on the north coast,” he told ABC. “It’s absolutely ridiculous, the State Government has bungled the rollout of this program.

“This would be one of the regions where in fact people are raring to participate.”

Customers have since been venting their frustration via social media with the scheme labelling it a “stuff up” and a “money grab”.

“I support any scheme that will help reduce plastic entering the environment. But this is a complete stuff up. And a total rip-off for North Coast consumers. More incompetence from the State Government,” one comment reads.

“You need many more than 500

stations across Australia, has the transport been arranged, have the recycling factories been built? Or is this another political stunt to fool the people that something is being done because surely if recycling saves money then it should not be costing the public,” another comment reads.

According to the Return and Earn website, customers will have three types of collection points: reverse vending machines (RVMs), over-the-counter collection points and automated depots.

“You can get your refund in cash at over-the-counter collection points and automated depots,” the website reads.

“Vouchers are available at reverse vending machines which can be exchanged for cash at a retail partner.”

Meanwhile, return and earn network operator TOMRA Cleanaway has appointed Woolworths as its first retail partner.

This agreement will see up to 180 reverse vending machines positioned at or near Woolworths supermarkets across the state by December 1 with more to come in early 2018.

Rare butterfly spotted at Eungella

A RARE sighting of the Richmond birdwing butterfly at Eungella earlier this month has inspired fresh hope that the species could one day strengthen in numbers.

The sighting occurred on the Tuesday, November 14, and continued for several days at Andy and Sue Everest’s home.

The Richmond birdwing is one of Australia’s largest butterflies with a wingspan of up to 16cm in females and 13cm in males.

Sadly, Birdwing butterfly numbers have dwindled over the years and the species is currently listed as critically endangered by the QLD Department of Environment.

Males and females differ in appearance with the females displaying dark brown or black wings with extensive white, cream or, in the hindwing, yellowish markings.

The upper forewing of males is black with a distinctive iridescent green leading edge, while the upper hindwing is predominantly iridescent green with black spots.

Mr Everest, who has a keen interest in native species, said a relative working for Land for Wildlife in Brisbane advised him to purchase a particular vine to attract the butterfly.

The Richmond birdwing lays eggs

singly or in small clusters (up to three) on native Pararistolochia vines.

“I had the vines here for about two weeks when a male Richmond birdwing butterfly suddenly appeared,” Mr Everest said.

Mr Everest said the vine was a particular favourite of butterfly as well as the many flower species on their property.

“It was quite approachable, although

TEMPERS ARE flaring over the NSW container deposit scheme (Return and Earn) which begins on Friday, December 1, with concerns that the Tweed Shire has missed out on a deposit point in the initial rollout for customers to return and earn a refund on cans and bottles.

The scheme has already resulted in increases to carton prices of around $3 to $4 dollars and several residents are calling the scheme a “complete stuff up” and all prior to Christmas.

Most 150ml to three litre drink containers will be eligible for a 10-cent refund at an approved NSW collection point, however containers need to be empty, uncrushed, unbroken and have the original label attached.

Wine, spirits, cordial and plain milk containers are generally not eligible.

If a container isn’t eligible for a refund, customers are being asked to use a recycling bin.

But the first rollout of collection points for the state’s container deposit scheme has not included the Tweed Shire or the Northern Rivers.

In fact, the nearest deposit point for Tweed locals is Woolgoolga which is around a three-hour drive away.

chrysalis etheric massage

This style of rhythmical massage was developed by Rudolf Steiner and Ita Wegman in the 1920s and was brought to Australia in the 1970s. A gentle, hands on approach using rhythm, lightness and warmth, the massage is for the relief of suffering. The treatment can address and soothe the symptoms of physical, mental and emotional pain and discomfort. Etheric massage forms applied through the palms of the hands provide a special breathing effect which helps wake up and restore the body’s own rhythms and inner processes. This distinguishes it as a treatment unlike any other.

Willow completed her training in 2017, an intensive 12 month Etheric Massage Course under the auspices of the Mercury Healing Group Inc. and opened her clinic in Murwillumbah in August 2017.

Is Tweed running out of water?

billion in 15 years (1974), and the fifth billion in only 13 years (1987).

Today there are 7.6 billion of us with a prediction of 9.5 billion by the year 2050. Staggering statistics.

To highlight the problem in current context, the year I was born the worldwide population was 2.6 billion. Today that figure is 7.6 billion. That is not even a span of one lifetime.

Mix the above with the fact that currently 60 per cent of the world’s poorest people receive only 5 per cent of the available resources and you have a formula for forthcoming catastrophe.

Why Adani matters

Tweed Shire LNP Councillor James Owen has publicly announced that he fears the Tweed Shire will run out of water within 10 years.

This public scaremongering comes from a Councillor who continually votes in favor of commercial water mining in the Tweed. An unregulated industry which allows huge profits to be made selling our water to the likes of Coca-Cola. The water extraction is unmetered and sold back to us in plastic bottles.

The whole industry is a massive threat to the Tweed environment and supported by Owen and his ‘development at any cost’ faction of the Council.

Andrew Bennett, Tweed

Humans ruining planet Wikipedia reports 4.5 billion was spent during the four day period commencing with US Thanksgiving last Thursday followed by Black Friday, kick-starting the 2017 Christmas shopping season and that was just e-shoppers.

Planet Earth is currently bursting at t h e s e a m s w i t h ra m p a n t consumption such as disposable coffee cups and waste electronics, the list is long.

The cost is global warming and pollution, melting ice caps, exponential loss of animal life and habit, and seas full of plastic. This list is also long.

As an example, worldwide we now use one million plastic bottles a minute.

The second problem is unstoppable human population growth.

It took all known human history until the 1800s for the human population to hit the first one billion mark.

The second billion was achieved in only 130 years (1930), the third billion in 30 years (1960), the fourth

Many of you will think nothing, just some coal mine in Queensland, too far away.

However, if you were impacted during the recent record flood in the Shire then yes Adani is something to do with you.

If you pay taxes Adani has a lot to do with you.

Ever been or intend to visit the Barrier Reef, then Adani should concern you.

If you have, grandkids, kids, or are just stating out in life then Adani should really concern you.

You should be concerned because we are talking about your future.

Adani will be the world’s biggest mine. Exporting 60 million tonnes of coal for overseas coal fired power stations. Burning of fossil fuels is the biggest cause of climate change.

Climate change has already impacted you with the record floods in the area. This mine will exacerbate the problem. See Adani has something to do with you.

Taxpayers should be appalled that the government wants to lend Adani $1 billion of your taxes to build a 388km railway to the mine. On top of that they are forcing farmers to sell land for the railway line.

The Queensland Government. is foregoing royalties for four years. It’s okay because of course Adani will repay them after four years. Won’t they? So your taxes are going to pay for a foreign businessman to build a railway to ship the coal overseas, sell it and then bury the profits in the Cayman Islands.

The coal will be shipped out by 500 ships a year through the World Heritage Great Barrier Reef Marine Park from a port at Abbot Point.

Just one accident and you can kiss goodbye to your reef holiday, say goodbye to thousands of overseas visitors and over 69,000 tourist

Citizenship debacle What a ridiculous situation! We must have the rest of the world laughing at us.

I am not a politician but here is my experience. We came to Australia from the UK in 1965 and within a few years I decided to be naturalised.

I loved the country, the people, the lifestyle – everything. There was no way I would go back and live in England, although most of my family was still there. I made what I thought was a big decision to change from British to Australian.

After the ceremony I was handed my certificate and told, “Now you can have two passports”. What?

I’m Australian. No, I was still half British. I was confused and disappointed, having thought seriously about my decision. But the two passports came in handy: I used whichever one gave me the best advantage when travelling.

However I was Australian, I am Australian. Visits back to the UK just reinforced the wisdom of changing my nationality. England was different: it was not the place I’d grown up in. Now I was more than happy to live down under.

There was one change to my British passport: the sentence “Has the automatic right to reside in the UK.” had been removed. I was no longer a first-class British citizen, but was second out of the four classes. I did not renew it.

If someone were to tell me to give up my job, my lifestyle, my career, my home - everything I had worked for – because they had discovered my British background I would be furious.

I suppose the writers of the Constitution didn’t want politicians to have a conflict of interest between their original nation and their adopted one. My solution to the dual citizenship fiasco when it was first discovered would be to ask everyone to make a Statutory Declaration renouncing any other loyalty and stating their sole interest in Australia. I don’t think any of them would have declined to do this. The statement could have been made retrospective to the date when they first nominated for a political position – and that would have been the end of it. They would no longer have dual citizenship, we would not see the stupid sacking of innocent people and wouldn’t have to pay for

the new elections!

Wollumbin climbing ban I hope we will one day see climbing banned on Wollumbin Mount Warning. The Bundjalung people have borne brutal loss since Europeans arrived. In our own Northern Rivers region there were massacres and poisonings of whole clans of people. However, before we invaded, people lived here within a rich, complex and successful culture with its own laws of civility and respect.

One of those laws was respect for country belonging to another and a deep respect for all the land.

In the face of enormous loss and invader brutality indigenous people have avoided taking on a revengeful outlook. One thing they have asked for however is that their sacred sites be recognised, respected and cared for.

Wollumbin was a site of great significance, with many ceremonial grounds in its vicinity but only climbed by the wisest ‘clever men’, the Moses people of the clan. Instead there are now people ‘conquering’ it, often at high speed, and in their thousands, yearly. And, as far as I know, there are no toilet facilities at the top or along the way.

At the very end of the National Park’s sign at the foot of the mountain is a sentence that says the indigenous elders would prefer no climbing of the mountain. Most climbers probably do not stop to read it – indeed I have spoken to many who did not know about this request. I would like this request to be prominently displayed at the start of the climb and to be included in all literature about the mountain.

Our land here has been lived in and enjoyed for over 40,000 years. Let’s take pride in the richness of this and, like Europeans who love and honour their old buildings, let’s learn about and respect our own ancient history. Let’s also listen to those who are the descendants of the ones who actually lived that history.

Rail service needed The citiz ens of the Tweed and Murwillumbah should be demanding a rail service from Brisbane to Murwillumbah.

Our local MPs should be belted into action over these dangerous congested. A good train could cut down the accident rate by 50 per cent and save lives, less police on the beat and a big decrease in drunk drivers.

T h e g r e at a d v a n t a g e a n d

convenience of a good train could put the Murwillumbah unemployment rate down to nil.

Thousands of older people could visit from Brisbane to view the gallery, restaurants and shops, and put new life into Murwillumbah.

It is up to the people of Tweed and Murwillumbah to inform their local MPs to get off their butts and do something about these dangerous roads or out they go.

Vaccination questions The Weekly page 3 article (23 Nov) on whooping cough asks should vaccinations be compulsory. Only adults may decide if they or their children take drugs. This unalienable right is supported by all ethical legal systems including the Nuremberg Code and Helsinki Declarations.

With 200 years of medical disasters, e.g. arsenic, mercury, DES, swine flu, aluminium, dioxin, blood letting, lead, thalidomide, asbestos, deildrin, childbed fever carnage caused by doctors failing or refusing to wash before delivery, DEG, agent orange, AIDS contaminated blood & Vioxx, all were claimed, as are vaccines, to be safe and effective despite proof of injury and death to tens of millions and multi-billion dollar public costs.

Our Commonwealth Bureau of Statistics reveals 18,000 Australian medical deaths and 50,000 injured yearly.

Worldwide government statistics show all infectious diseases were in major decline decades before any significant level of vaccinations, ie. deaths from Whooping Cough, Diptheria, Measles, Polio, Smallpox, Scarlet Fever, Chicken Pox, Typhus, Flu and TB. Vaccination authorities hide this with graphs only showing statistics after vaccinations, not before.

Many countries had slums with atrocious conditions; open rubbish and excrement often contaminating drinking water, appalling overcrowding and poverty, malnutrition, vermin infestations and child labour, understandably resulting in rampant disease, abject despair and early death. Medical historians record the true cause of the dramatic disease reductions as sanitation and improved water quality, nutrition, hygiene, housing, ventilation and wages.

Tweed needs a second dam, says Councillor Rates to rise by 2.3

WATER SECURITY remains a hot topic across the Tweed Shire and continues to divide opinions as Tweed Shire Councillors continue deliberations over water extraction applications and discussions around a second dam resurfaced.

Councillor James Owen recently caught up with The Weekly to discuss his recent comments to support a second dam for the Tweed Shire.

His comments were pointed out in several letters to The Weekly and has since raised several questions around Cr Owen’s support for commercial water extraction development applications.

Several residents remain concerned by the amount of water being extracted in the Tweed, despite DPI Water claiming groundwater supplies will go unaffected.

Cr Owen was asked several questions including why he believes the Tweed Shire needs a second dam?

“With population increase and the corresponding increase in water consumption, we will, in future years need more water,” he said.

“This is despite the significant reduction in per person consumption.

Council has resolved to proceed with the raising of the wall of the existing Clarrie Hall Dam and not the construction of a second dam.”

Cr Owen said he also believes the raising of the Clarrie Hall Dam is a good option to secure the Tweed’s water supply.

“Yes, the raising of Clarrie Hall Dam was the preferred option from the original Community Reference Group and it can easily be raised,” Cr Owen said.

“There will be some environmental impacts and community impacts from raised water levels upstream of the dam,

however, we are undertaking detailed studies and working with the local community to ensure that these impacts are mitigated as much as possible.

When asked his views on water extraction Cr Owen said Council is taking steps to consider environmental impacts when assessing development applications.

“This is primarily a matter for NSW Crown Lands and Water, under the Department of Industry who undertake the assessments for water extraction from groundwater sources and issue the licences,” he said.

“In terms of the assessment of development applications for commercial water extraction activities, Council must take steps of further qualification in their consideration of the environmental impacts of water extraction, to determine for itself whether it is satisfied that the development will not have an adverse impact on such systems.

“To that end, all applicants are required to provide a hydrogeological assessment as to the likely impact of the water bottling facility on natural water systems.

“Earlier this year all seven Councillors were present at a briefing from Water NSW officers who gave a thorough

briefing on the rigorous criteria they use to assess licence applications.

“Anyone wishing to know more should contact the NSW Office of Water who will be happy to provide the information.

“The water that Council provides to Tweed ratepayers is extracted from the Tweed River.

Cr Owen said he believed the Tweed will run out of water in the next decade following modeling undertaken by Council staff.

“Our staff are some of the best in their field and our water models indicate that there are likely to be longer periods of drought in the future and combined with the significant projected increase in Tweed’s Population, by 2026 the amount of water we extract from our system will not be enough to survive a severe drought such as the one we had in 2002-03,” he said.

YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe the Tweed Shire’s demand for water warrants a new dam? Or will the wall raising give the Tweed a fighting chance?

The Graph shows that by 2026 Tweed water demand will exceed supply. The green line is the demand we would have had without demand management measures The red line is the demand in a peak year – this is what we have to cater for. Blue is the line in an average year. Purple is the secure yield declining from about 15,000ML/a in 2014 to 11,250ML/a in 2030. The point at which the red and purple lines intersect is the point at which our demand for water exceeds our supply in 2026.

per cent says IPART

TWEED SHIRE Council rates will increase under the new rate pegs for 2018/19 from 1.5 per cent to 2.3 per cent following the announcement by the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART).

IPART determines the rate peg for NSW councils each year and it sets the maximum general income NSW councils can collect.

The main component of general income is rates revenue and councils can apply to IPART for a special variation if they wish to increase their general income by more than the rate peg.

However, Tweed Shire Council acting Manager of Financial Services Arthur Piggott said Council would remain at the rate peg of 2.3 per cent.

“Council will apply the rate peg amount of 2.3 per cent for 2018/2019,” Mr Piggott said.

Mr Piggott explained that the rate increase, which is in line with the rate peg, was needed for increasing costs as well as flood recovery.

“The increase is needed in order for Council to meet increases in its labour costs, electricity and street lighting charges, and higher constructions costs for roads, drains, footpaths, kerbing and bridges (as well as flood recovery costs not covered by insurance or government assistance),” he said.

“The peg increase will mean that the total general rates levied in 2018-2019 will be 2.3 per cent more than the total amount of general rates levied this year (2017-2018).”

As a real example if you currently pay $1500 per annum for rates, your bill will increase by 2.3 per cent which is equivalent to a $34.50 increase.

IPART determines the rate peg by measuring changes in the Local Government Cost Index (LGCI), which includes changes in the average costs faced by councils, and consideration of a factor to reflect improvements in productivity.

IPART Chair Dr Peter Boxall said next year’s rate peg is higher than the previous two years (1.8 per cent in 2016-17 and 1.5 per cent in 2017-18), primarily due to increases in labour costs, electricity and street lighting charges, and higher construction costs for roads, drains, footpaths, kerbing and bridges. No further adjustment for productivity improvements were made this year.

“The Local Government Cost Index increased by 2.3 per cent in the year to September 2017,” Dr Boxall said.

A FOUR-STOREY development at Kingscliff on Marine Parade has been approved by the Land and Environment Court following an appeal process after Tweed Shire Councillors voted to refuse the development in December 2016.

The construction of seven residential flats at the 204 Marine Parade site was initially approved in 1997 and since then there have been a number of changes to the initial plans, which was one of the reasons Tweed Shire Councillors voted unanimously to refuse the development.

The court-approved plans for the four-storey building will include seven apartments, a swimming pool and mixeduse retail at a height of 13.5 metres.

The Weekly spoke with “No high rise” campaigner and Councillor Ron Cooper on Monday, who said he was disappointed with the court’s decision, but admitted the writing was on the wall.

“We have to accept the court ruling,” Cr Cooper said.

“The State Government’s Environmental Planning Policy outlines 13.6 metres as the preferred height and although I had worked hard with Council to keep the heights at 12.2 metres, it was ultimately up to the courts.”

Cr Cooper said he was aware that the ruling was likely prior to the court hearing and said he now fears it will open the door to other four-storey developments.

“The petition I had started, which reached 15,500 signatures against high rise buildings at Kingscliff, was intended to target the State Government for this very reason,” he said.

This follows the recent approval by Tweed Shire Council of another four-storey mixeduse building at 54-55 Cylinders Drive, Kingscliff, which will include 16 apartments, three retail outlets, three office spaces and nine townhouses.

The developer asked Council to vary their Tweed Local Environmental Plan (TLEP) and Tweed Development Control Plan (TDCP) to allow a building height of 14.2 metres which exceeds the height restriction of the site by 1.2 metres.

Despite the variation to the height limit

204 Marine Parade plans

and a lack of two car spaces, Council staff had recommended the plans be approved as a previous application at the site for a mixed-use development of 40 units had been approved with similar variations to height and carparking.

“The current proposal is considered to be a less intensive use of the subject site having regard to the floor space ratio for the respective developments and corresponding number of Units,” Council’s report reads.

Council’s planners also said in their report that the building height variation could be approved under delegated authority as the variation did not exceed 10 per cent.

“The development standard to be varied may be assessed under delegated authority as the degree of variation does not exceed 10 per cent at 9.23 per cent (not required to be reported to Council) and Council has assumed concurrence from the Department of Planning and Environment in accordance with Planning Circular PS 08-003 to approve proposed variations,” Council’s report reads.

Meanwhile, plans to construct a five-storey building at 26 Marine Parade are with Council, with a decision yet to be made.

Cr Cooper said the Draft Kingscliff Locality Plan, which was due to come out this year, will now be released in early 2018.

Under the Draft Kingscliff Locality Plan, the Marine Parade precinct will be limited to a building height of 11 metres, whilst all other mixed-use housing will be limited to 11 metres with a 1.2 metre podium with the statement in brackets (three storey), eliminating the possibility of a four-storey building from being approved.

Final submission window for Casuarina Town Centre Murwillumbah Baptist Church will reopen in 2018 SLS facility will be housed in the Icon building situated on the beachfront.

“However, size and facilities will be dictated at a future date by SLS Australia.

“To date there is no space allocated for a SLS clubhouse at a future date.”

Mr Grunwald said he recently met with Tweed Shire Council staff including General Manager Troy Green and Director of Planning Vince Connell, and Councillors James Owen and Ron Cooper to discuss some of the concerns around the Town Centre plans.

He said that Council is working towards reducing building heights within the Tweed Local Environmental Plan (LEP) from 13.6 metres to 12.2 metres, which would prevent fourstorey buildings from being approved within the town centre.

“However, the downside of this blanket LEP change is that it will significantly affect growth, employment, the availability of low cost housing etc in the Tweed Shire as significant density in greenfield areas can’t be achieved,” he said.

“It’s a complicated argument but without increased Shire density we can’t have the services, business growth and employment that the Tweed Shire

needs.”

Another issue raised by Casuarina residents was the amount of green space through the plans, especially around the Central Plaza.

“Regarding the Central Plaza that I have suggested to alleviate the wind tunnel effect and allow a little internal green space, this will come down to negotiations with Clarence Property,” he said.

“As does the lot allowance for a future SLS Club house facility within the current plan.

“And finally, Tweed Shire Council confirmed that no public or reserve green space was used for parking. The parking occurs on developer land.”

The next Casuarina and South Kingscliff Residents Association meeting will occur Wednesday, February 7, 2018.

To make a submission visit the Department of Planning & Environment Major Projects website at http://majorprojects.planning.nsw. gov.au or Tweed Shire Council offices.

John with Pastor Stephen Smith

MURWILLUMBAH BAPTIST Church at 10 Eveleigh Street will not be closing permanently but will instead reopen in 2018, despite battling through tough times during the past 12 months including being impacted by the Tweed flood in March/April.

The Weekly recently met with The Hub Baptist Church Senior Pastor Stephen Smith at Tweed Heads South, who sought to clarify that the Murwillumbah Baptist Church had closed for the time being.

“Yes, Murwillumbah Baptist as we have known will close as it’s come to the end of its season,” he said.

“That said, the church in Murwillumbah is now in a perfect position to be catapulted into something new, something exciting, something that the local community can get behind and be involved in.”

Mr Smith said he believed many locals will understand that to step into what’s going to be then, more than often than not, we need to let go of what was.

“As such Murwillumbah Baptist will be joining The Hub Baptist family at Tweed Heads South,” he said.

“The Hub Baptist is one church in many locations, reaching out into their local communities, pulling people together and working with them to better the local communities.”

Mr Smith said that he believes that God has already been at work and has joined some incredible people to the life to The Hub. “One couple being Mr and Mrs Harris who were pastors in South Korea before being lead to join The Hub family,” he said.

“They will serve alongside Stephen and The Hub team to once again see the Murwillumbah church do great things.”

He added that at this stage the Hub was unsure when the relaunch of the Murwillumbah Baptist Church will take place.

“But believe me it’s coming, so watch this space for more info as we are so excited at the endless possibilities that lay ahead,” he said.

PUBLIC DISCUSSION continues around the Casuarina Town Centre with Casuarina and South Kingscliff Residents Association president Mark Grunwald, urging residents to consider the development and make a submission before the closing date on Friday, December 1.

Mr Grunwald spoke with The Weekly on Tuesday and said that as the Residents Association would not be meeting until early 2018, the group will not be making a submission this year, however he has encouraged individuals to have their say.

“Speaking as a local resident, I would like to encourage those residents to have their say today and tomorrow, before the closing date,” he said.

“While I believe many residents are in favour of some development in the Town Centre, there are still a lot of concerns that need addressing.

“It’s important however to note that a lot of residents are not attempting to stop the development, there’s just three primary areas that need addressing.”

Mr Grunwald was recently appointed president of the Casuarina and South Kingscliff Residents Association and expressed his views on the matter via social media.

“The current Town Centre plan is close to 40 per cent less dense than the current approved plan,” he said.

“So, whilst it’s far from perfect it’s a far preferable base from which to work.

Mr Grunwald said there were four areas of concern from Casuarina residents including “the very unpopular four-storey height of three major buildings, the uncertainty surrounding the planned Surf Life Saving (SLS) facilities, the lack of any space being allocated for a future SLS club house structure and the lack of any green space/plaza in the primary spine road”.

“Clarence Property town planner Damian Chapelle responded to my original note and whilst being respectful and understanding offered partial satisfaction on only one point,” he said.

“He clarified and later sent me the Tweed Shire Council stipulation that a

No public Christmas trees for Tweed Shire THE TWEED Shire will miss out on a public Christmas trees this year due to damage incurred by the Tweed floods, combined with vandalism in 2016 and stretched resources.

Each year sites in Kingscliff, Murwillumbah and Tweed Heads are used to celebrate Christmas with a large decorated tree for the public to admire.

However, several of Council’s storage facilities were inundated with water during the Tweed flood earlier this year, devastating the trees and rendering them unsalvageable.

Murwillumbah also lost its public tree in the lead up to Christmas last year after vandals burnt the plastic tree to the ground at the corner of Tweed Valley Way and Alma Street.

The response to the burning of the Murwillumbah Christmas tree was a huge public outcry and several residents purchased decorations and created their own tree in time for Christmas.

The Weekly put several questions to Tweed Shire Council last week to determine whether Murwillumbah will receive a new tree or whether anywhere across the Tweed Shire will feature a public Christmas tree.

“Council is continuing to liaise with the Murwillumbah & District Chamber of Commerce on the installation of a contemporary Christmas Tree sculpture in Knox Park as the town’s community Christmas Tree,” a Council spokesperson said.

“The design was identified as the preferred option for a Murwillumbah community Christmas Tree during community consultation in 2016.”

The Council spokesperson said the sculpture will not be in place in time for Christmas 2017 because there are still a

few planning and funding matters that need to be finalised.

“Council has allocated funds for the project, conditional on the Chamber confirming the funding and sponsorships required to complete the project,” the Council spokesperson said.

“Council has been working closely with the Chamber, which dedicated much of its time and resources this year to responding to the flood crisis, while also undergoing many changes in the organisation’s leadership.”

But not all of the public Christmas displays are lost, with the Murwillumbah & District Chamber of Commerce planning Santaland.

Murwillumbah & District Chamber of Commerce President Ilze Jaunberzins said it was a sad situation after the impact of the Tweed flood had drained resources.

“This year we will need to radiate Christmas spirit from our hearts,” she said.

“But our commitment is creating Santaland to encourage residents to stay in Murwillumbah for wellpriced photos, while long term we are committed to support Creative Caldera to install a permanent beautiful sculpture which will add great value to our town.

“Council is fully supportive to invest money to make this a reality by 2018 and we have lobbied Council to install something permanent for example fairy lights.”

Meanwhile, Christmas tree displays at Kingscliff and Tweed Heads have both been shelved after the Tweed flood.

“The community Christmas trees for Kingscliff and Tweed Heads were both damaged beyond repair in the March floods,” the Council spokesperson said.

“Both were covered by insurance.

In light of community responses to the community trees and new opportunities that have emerged at the Kingscliff and Tweed Heads locations, Council’s reviewing its options to best use available funds.

“They include a Norfolk Pine near the centre of the new central Kingscliff park established as part of the Foreshore Revitalisation.

“Council is working with the Tweed Heads Chamber to explore options for the Tweed Heads precinct in 2018.”

Pet photos with Santa

The community raised their own Christmas tree last year after the Murwillumbah tree was vandalised.

FRIENDS OF The Pound in conjunction with Petbarn Tweed Heads are hosting a special pet photos with Santa event on this Saturday and Sunday, December 2 and 3 and December 9 and 10.

A special section of the Petbarn store has been set up especially for cats and dogs, but other family members such as goldfish and guinea pigs are also welcome.

Friends of the Pound marketing manager Lorna Hudson said seasonal family photos have long been a tradition for the Australian family.

“So why should your four-legged family members have to miss out?” she said.

“On December 2nd, 3rd, 9th, and 10th, Friends of the Pound will be offering pet photography at Petbarn Tweed between 10am-3pm.

“Whether your fur babies have been naughty or nice this year, don’t pass up on this opportunity to capture priceless memories of them snuggling up to Santa for just $15.”

Devastating house fire rips through Dulguigan property a lower risk period due to the wetter seasonal months,” he said.

Murwillumbah RFS were called to travel as far as Wardell, past Ballina, to assist fire crews during the August and September drought.

“We were very busy in August and September, when we had received around a call a day for assistance and needed to travel as far as Wardell to give support.”

Mr Frankland said he wanted to remind residents to ensure they have fire blankets and extinguishers at home and to double check appliances for

faults.

The Murwillumbah RFS is also on the lookout for new volunteers, especially those able to work during business hours.

“We are always looking for new members, volunteers especially during the working hours of the week,” Captain Frankland said.

White goods are among the top items dumped across the Tweed and they are not included in Council’s dial up kerbside clean-up.

Dumping still an issue

ILLEGAL DUMPING continues to occur across the Tweed Shire this month with several items appearing dumped beside roads and in bushland as Tweed Shire Council urges residents to use the dial up kerbside collection service.

Council has also highlighted the collection service in its Tweed Link newsletter this week reminding residents that the household clean-up service has changed.

“Since July 1 Council has been operating an on-call bulk waste collection service under which every household with red lid wheelie bin services is entitled to two kerbside collections each year,” Council’s Tweed Link reads.

“These collections must be booked in advance, either online or by calling (02) 6670 2400, and rubbish is to be taken to the kerb just 24 hours prior to the date provided.

“Any rubbish left kerbside without an on-call collection booked will now be treated as illegal dumping.

Council’s Acting Coordinator of Waste Services Wes Knight said the change was intended to prevent neighbourhoods from looking untidy for weeks at a time.

“People will still get the same number of services and we have even increased the amount which can be collected from one to two cubic metres,” Mr Knight said in Tweed Link.

“This can now be scheduled at a time when it is convenient and won’t cause any issues for your neighbours.”

Residents of multi-unit developments with red wheelie bin services need to coordinate kerbside collections with property managers to ensure all collections for their building are done at the same time.

Businesses and properties with bulk bins rather than red wheelie bins are not eligible for kerbside collection.

Council noted that contractors will endeavour to provide collection dates within three weeks of booking, however this may be extended during busy periods.

MURWILLUMBAH RURAL Firefighters have urged residents to double check their household appliances and fire extinguishers, after crews were called to a devastating house fire at Dulguigan Road on Thursday, November 23.

Murwillumbah Rural Fire Service (RFS) Captain Joe Frankland said his crews had received a call at about 7.30pm that smoke was billowing from the property.

The property owner was home at the time of the fire and left the home before calling Murwillumbah Rural Fire. No one was injured in the fire.

“The fire was believed to have started in the kitchen area, however there’s still an investigation underway to determine the cause,” Captain Frankland said.

Captain Frankland said the crews had the fire under control in about 30 minutes, but it took about two hours to completely extinguish the fire and deem the site safe.

“It was a big fire, but it was also the first house fire we’ve had in three to four months,” Captain Frankland said.

“Murwillumbah 391 and Cudgen RFS crews, wearing breathing apparatus, made forcible entry to the house to attack the fire which started on the bottom floor and moved up to the second level.

“Crews worked quickly to bring the fire under control but unfortunately the fire had caused significant damage to the house.”

Mr Frankland said the Tweed Shire was now under permit fires only, where each person wanting to light a fire must first obtain a fire permit through the Murwillumbah RFS. “There’s not a lot of fire danger now, with all the rain, but historically this is

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

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

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

New training centre now open Five generations of loving family

THE GOLD Coast Training College officially opened its new Tweed Heads Campus on Wednesday, November 29, offering new local training opportunities under the NSW Department of Industry Smart and Skilled funded programs.

Director of Gold Coast Training Paul Hartley joined with CEO Rae-Anne McMahon, residents and local Indigenous elders to officially open the new college site at 2/8 Blundell Boulevard, Tweed Heads South.

The opening included a Welcome to Country by Aunty Kath Lena and Jackie McDonald, and a smoke ceremony carried out by Uncle Allan Lena, a Traditional Custodian and Elder.

The new training centre will offer a range of nationally recognised training programs including in its initial phase first aid, paralegal studies and security courses.

Mrs McMahon said she was extremely glad to finally have a college set up in Tweed Heads and looked forward to helping locals into employment.

“I’m really happy to have opened on Blundell Boulevard,” she said.

“We did have a small outlet on Wharf Street and had waited 12 months for this site.

“We’ve positioned ourselves near the local Centrelink and near the job active precincts and community organisations in order to support those other services.

“We offer affordable training options with government funding for both Queensland and NSW. “We are currently offering a first aid course for $49, a security course for $800 or paralegal course funded under Smart and Skilled NSW to those eligible or $999.”

Gold Coast Training College offers around 17 courses under Smart and Skilled.

Mrs McMahon started the first Gold Coast Training College in 2011 at Southport and continues to strive to achieve quality outcomes for participants.

To find out more about Gold Coast Training College at Tweed Heads phone (07) 5528 3591 or visit 2/8 Blundell Blvd, Tweed Heads South.

Cherry Watts with Dianne Campbell, Jodie Campbell, Brianna Collis and baby Quinn Law

A LOCAL family have come together to celebrate five generations with the recent birth of a new baby meeting her great great granddaughter.

Kristy Maree wrote to The Weekly recently and said her grandmother Takako (Cherry) Watts has been a local in the Tweed Shire for more than 60 years and has just experienced meeting her great great granddaughter.

“William (Bill) Watts was an occupational services soldier in Kure, Japan, after World War II, where he met and fell in love with Japanese dance teacher Takako (Cherry) Watts,” Kristy said.

“In 1951 they had their eldest two children George and Margaret, before they married in Japan and boarded the long boat trip back to Australia in 1953.

“Once arriving in Australia, Cherry and Bill found their new home in Murwillumbah where under Australian laws they had to remarry for Cherry to become an Australian citizen.”

Kristy said they started their lives together and grew their family.

“Susan, Joanne, Dianne, Mary and Aaron were born in Murwillumbah Hospital and Cherry now has ten grandkids, 22 great grandchildren and one great great

grandchild Quinn.

Cherry, her daughter Dianne Campbell, her daughter Jodie Campbell, her daughter Brianna Collis and her new daughter Quinn, all meet up for morning tea and Kristy captured the moment of five generations together at once.

Local News 15

Cook’s Endeavour reveal amazing renovation PASSIONATE LOCALS and business partners Rebecca and Toby are breathing new life into the iconic Cook’s Endeavour Motor Inn at 26 Frances Street, Tweed Heads.

Take a walk inside one of the newly refurbished rooms at Cook’s Endeavour and you will be amazed by the quality and comfort at great prices.

The pair purchased the 21-room site in March this year and have been working extremely hard on the renovations with 15 rooms already completed and only six rooms to go.

But rather then rush through the project, Toby said they planned on revitalising the previous charm and comforts of the Cook’s Endeavour from when it first opened in 1980.

“We decided to invest more time and money in the property to ensure our guests experience the best the region has to offer with fresh, clean and very contemporary renovations,” Toby said.

“Plus, the Cook’s Endeavour was always considered a high-quality motel when it first opened and has received amazing reviews.

“That’s something we’re bringing back and we’re proud to represent and we encourage guests to check out the Trip Advisor reviews which are fantastic.”

Toby said the business had a set of four rules in which the motel stands by when offering accommodation to guests.

“The first is a good sleep, value for money, clean and safe and finally a good shower,” he said.

“We’ve also invested in the rooms by having spotted gum hardwood benchtops and a lot more work done to make the rooms more contemporary.

“To reduce our carbon footprint, as well as decreasing our electricity bill, we’ve installed LED lighting, solar panel systems as well as waterwise products,”

Rebecca said.

The rooms also offer high quality beds and linen with outstanding pillows and a choice of soft and/or firm pillows.

The majority of rooms also offer kitchenettes complete with crockery and cutlery, as well as laundry facilities on site.

“This is an amazing part of the world and we really want our guests to feel comfortable for great value and a boutique experience,” he said.

“We’re off the main street and within easy walking distance to Twin Towns, Tweed Heads Bowling Club, The Tweed Hospital and all the restaurants, beaches and attractions that Tweed and Coolangatta have to offer.

“We would also like to give a big thank you to those local trades that helped us including Dave and Janine Hipwell at Hipwell Plumbing, Keith at Reece Plumbers, Josh and the boys at Absolute

Energy Solutions, Brendan and the boys at Brendan Duggar Locksmith, Jackson Close Electrical, Carl and the boys at Greenmount Timber & Building Supplies, Russel at Signs Today, Solomons Carpet, Neil Plant Tech Spray, and Daniel from Millennium Glass and Pool fencing.

READ A REVIEW: (TripAdviser November 2017): “This motel is one of those rare little finds. Rooms have been thoughtfully renovated, the location is on a quiet street and the hosts are amazing.

We were going to a show at Twin Towns, so the motel was located within an easy walk. We will definitely stay again. Highly recommended!”

Toby and Rebecca have taken pride in creating their dream accommodation at Cook’s Endeavour Motor Inn. Inset: The original pool logo tiled in 1980.

Tweed Heads is a popular destination with travellers

Tweed tourism booming

TWEED HEADS is rising in popularity among travellers, according to online booking platform HotelsCombined. com.au, with bookings to the Tweed growing by a staggering 73.2 per cent in the past two years.

Data from Tourism Research Australia also shows an increase in daytrip visitors to Tweed Heads that rose by 6.4 per cent during the year ending June 2017.

Destination NSW said the most popular reasons for travelling to the North Coast are for a holiday or to visit friends and relatives.

It reports the top activities among travellers to the region are going to the beach (49 per cent) and visiting friends (45 per cent).

As visitors continue to face increasing crowds and prices in the Byron and Gold Coast Shires, the Tweed is well placed as a destination hot spot according to HotelsCombined.

“HotelsCombined.com.au identifies a hot spot as being any travel destination that has seen at least 20-30 per cent growth between January-June 2016 and again in January-June 2017 (to account for high and low season),” the website media team said “As a result, Tweed Heads is outpacing the growth seen in Coffs Harbour, which has just 12 per cent growth from January to June 2016 and 11 per cent growth in the same period this year.”

Chris Rivett, Head of Marketing at HotelsCombined said Tweed Heads is generally perceived to be popular among retirees.

“But we think an increasing number of people have been seeking a more affordable and quieter destination than Byron Bay, the Gold Coast or Coffs Harbour,” he said.

“The beaches on the Tweed coast are some of the best in the country for surfing.”

NEWLY RENOVATED Clean and comfortable rooms within walking distance to the attractions and shopping in the heart of Tweed Heads

• Newly renovated with quality fittings • Heated pool and spa • Walking distance to shops, restaurants, bowls • Tweeds only ground floor motel and clubs, Twin Towns and the Tweed River off the highway • Enjoy a good comfortable sleep, great showers, • Level walking distance to Tweed Hospital clean rooms.

Sandra reunites with long-lost English friends Possums given boost to improve playground

AN EXTRAORDINARY story about local business owner Sandra Guthrie, who owns Poster Paradise on Murwillumbah Street, has emerged this week revealing another chapter in her lifelong struggle to retrace her lost life in England during the 1950s and 60s.

Sandra was only 14 years old when she was sent to Australia by the British Government on December 12, 1963, to live with foster parents in Sydney.

Originally, from Plymouth, Devon, Sandra had excelled at school and achieved a scholarship to attend a Grammar School, and went to the Plymouth High School for Girls.

“I was constantly bullied, having no parents which was unheard of at the time and living with my adopted granny and grandad in a one-bedroom council flat,” she said.

“Also going to school on the first day wearing a second-hand uniform that had been given to me and was miles too big, everyone laughed at me.

“The teacher, Miss Lobb, the next day of school took me shopping and bought me a brand-new uniform obviously to make me feel better.”

During this tumultuous time in Sandra’s life she always remembered three “beautiful friends” as she calls them, who she lost contact with for more than 50 years.

“They were the only ones that really became my friends and included Dorothy Jones, Yvonne Forsyth and Jean Taylor,” she said.

“We didn’t see a great deal of each other as they all lived in Whitleigh and I lived quite a long way from them.”

Sadly, Sandra’s life in Australia would further separate her from her friends in England.

“When I came to Australia my foster

father destroyed my address books, diary etc,” she said.

“He didn’t want me to have anything to do with anyone in England because he was scared I would tell them how he was abusing me.

“When I was 18 and was allowed to leave my foster home, I started to look for my friends, with no luck.”

Sandra eventually returned to England in 1997 to meet her birth family and went back to her school, but was given no advice on how she could contact her old friends.

She even tried a local journalist in Plymouth who wrote a story on how Sandra was looking for her lost brother and three best friends from school, but again no luck.

After trying what she thought was everything, Sandra carried out an internet search for lost friends and found Angels UK and Aussie.

“Angels UK and Aussie had within two days found Dorothy, that was last

week, and today (Monday, November 27) they have Jean,” she said.

“Still no luck with my brother or Yvonne though. Dorothy has sent me a photo of her family, and we are now emailing each other, and I have emailed Jean.”

Sandra said that neither of her found friends were on Facebook, and now Dorothy will be able to reunite with Jean as she had lost contact with her.

Sandra said she’s now rebuilding a part of a life she had believed lost and remains in contact with her English friends to reacquaint herself and grow their relationships once more.

“Angels UK are Aussie and the most amazing group of people,” Sandra said.

“They are there to help you find friends or family that you have not had contact with in either Australia or England.

“They certainly have turned my life around.”

Long-lost friend Dorothy Jones

Sandra Guthrie is happy to have reunited with two old friends from England

Justine delivering the good news to Possums Preschool and parents at the school on Tuesday, November 28

MEMBER FOR Richmond Justine Elliot has this week announced that the Possums Community Preschool at Condong will receive $10,000 in Federal funding to upgrade the school’s playground facilities under the Stronger Communities Programme.

“I congratulate Possums Community Preschool Association on this important project,” Mrs Elliot said.

“They will match the Federal funding of $10,000 bringing the total value of the project up to $20,000 for the upgrading of their playground facilities.

“The project will allow for the Preschool to install a new cubby house and rebuild the gathering circle.

Mrs Elliot said the inclusions will create a welcoming space as well as enhancing the children’s learning in a culturally sensitive way.

“Our local Stronger Communities Programme delivers funding across the Richmond electorate for small capital grants supporting projects that will contribute to the vibrancy and viability of our region,” she said.

“This funding is part of the more than $2 billion that I’ve delivered for local roads, schools, health and community resources.”

Water safe to drink despite brown tinge

TWEED SHIRE Council said they would like to advise residents that the current discoloured water supply is safe to drink but residents should avoid washing white clothes in it.

The brown to orange tinge in the water supply is due to iron and manganese particles that have been scoured from the lining of a trunk main due to a higher velocity of water passing through it.

Council shut down one of the two large trunk mains in Murwillumbah to allow workers to safely install a stormwater pipe beneath that main on a job site in Nullum Street, forcing the other trunk main to take double the volume of water thus scouring the lining of the pipe.

“We did not expect the scouring to be as intense as it has been,” said Manager Water and Wastewater Anthony Burnham. “We regularly flush the mains and undertake air scouring to remove the build-up of iron and manganese from pipe linings but this event confirms the build-up of those two elements in this main was greater than we expected.”

The discolouration is likely to continue today and tomorrow and will spread further across the shire.

Currently the issue is being reported in Murwillumbah, Tweed Heads and Banora Point.

“While we have taken action to stop pushing more discoloured water into the network, what’s there already has to pass through so residents should

expect that the brown-orange tinge to the water will continue today and tomorrow.”

Residents with discoloured water are asked to contact Council on 6670 2400 and Council will respond by flushing the mains near affected properties.

Those who have washed whites in the discoloured water are advised not to let the clothes dry but to immediately place back in a tub of water and contact Council for a cleaning kit. If the whites dry, the discolouration stain will become permanent.

For more information on how to clean laundry stained with discoloured water, see http://www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/ WaterQuality.

Rescue helicopter lands on highway after accident

A TERRIBLE high-speed accident involving two vehicles on the Pacific Highway occurred near Banora Point at about 11.15pm on Tuesday, November 11.

Police are continuing investigations around the accident but it appears two vehicles have collided trapping one driver.

Members from the Tweed District Rescue Squad (TDRS) attended the accident and used the jaws of life to pry the door and roof off to free the occupant.

“Crews gained access to vehicle through passenger side allowing NSW Ambulance to perform patient assessment and begin treatment,” a spokesperson for TDRS said.

“At request of paramedics, TDRS used hydraulic spreaders and cutters to remove the drivers door and roof from the vehicle.

“M1 northbound was temporarily closed to allow Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service - Official Site to land safely, treat, and airlift one patient to hospital.

“Also in attendance were FRNSW 468 Tweed Heads Fire StationFRNSW 514 Banora, Tweed Byron LAC - NSW Police Force.”

The Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter service was tasked to the vehicle collision and transported an 87-year-

old male occupant who was treated on scene by road Ambulance Paramedics and the helicopter medical team before being transported to the Gold Coast University Hospital in a stable condition.

IGA Murwillumbah reveals incredible renovation

23

Murwillumbah High students dazzle in Schools Spectacular

Alyssa Stavar and Chloe Barker

Brett Bugg with IGA Murwillumbah managers Kristy and Shane Catania alongside Leanne Bugg.

THE COMPLETELY refurbished IGA Murwillumbah will reopen today (Thursday, November 30) heralding a new grocery shopping experience in Murwillumbah’s CBD including an expanded range for shoppers.

The site has undergone a complete renovation in just eight days and local shoppers are in for a surprise.

The new store offers an open layout and fresh food approach that’s similar to the IGA Tweed Valley Way with a change of concept to provide a greater range and convenience to customers.

Owners Brett and Leanne Bugg have poured their heart and soul into the new store using local tradespeople to replace the floors, registers, fridges, shelving, fixtures, rewiring, painting and new stock.

“A grocery store has been in this

location for more than 40 years and we found evidence of some of the early incarnations while removing walls and signs,” Brett said.

“It was about a change of concept to provide a more convenient food offering to customers while still retaining all the value of the IGA brand and all the products you couldn’t find elsewhere.”

Brett said the new store now offers “grab and go” meal solutions for both lunch and dinner, as well as gourmet rolls, freshly made salads, ready to go bircher muesli and yoghurt combos, ready to eat fruit tubs, pastas and lasagnes.

Plus there’s also plenty of hot food, roast pork, BBQ chickens, bacon and egg muffins, chicken burgers, readymade hot meals and freshly made coffee.

The inclusion of a naughty corner with 48 varieties of self-serve lollies and

gourmet ice cream is also a welcome new addition.

“It has been ten years since Leanne and I purchased the store and in that time nearly everything had been replaced already but this time we decided to do it all at once,” Brett said.

“We want to encourage other retailers to invest in the CBD as there’s plenty of life and vibrancy left in the town.

“Don’t wait for others to do it but jump in now because investment leads to more investment which leads to growth and more jobs.”

The couple wanted to give a big thank you to the scores of local tradespeople and manufactures used throughout the process with many going throughout the night to make the opening.

The new store is now open at Murwillumbah Street or for more information phone: (02) 6672 1364.

TWO STUDENTS from Murwillumbah High School have landed parts in the 2017 Schools Spectacular set to air on Channel 7 on Saturday, December 16.

Year nine students Chloe Baker and Alyssa Stavar were both selected to join the cast of 2,400 dance students to perform in Segment 12: The Beatles and Segment 14: The Finale.

The theme of this year’s 24th Schools Spectacular is ‘Own the Moment’ and four performances were held on November 24 and 25 at Olympic Park in Sydney.

Murwillumbah High teacher Kerri Turnbull said the dancers were given only four rehearsals as a group and had to learn choreography in their own time.

Mrs Turnbull said Alyssa was also one of only 30 ballet dancers chosen to perform as part of the featured ballet ensemble dancers who performed in Segment 6: ‘Finding your moment’ to ‘Romeo and Juliet’.

“Featured dancers were invited to a red carpet event where they had a meet and greet and photos with VIPs including sponsor representatives, Schools Spectacular ambassador Jay Laga’lia, Igelese Ete who was choirmaster for Lord of the Rings and the Moana soundtrack as well as some Home and Away actors,” she said.

Alyssa Stavar also recently took part in the NSW Public Schools State Dance Ensemble.

“She performed in Schools Spectacular Segment 8: ‘How does a moment last forever’ to ‘Love is an open door’ and ‘Happily ever after’,” Mrs Turnbull said.

Chloe dances in Murwillumbah and began dancing when she was three years old at Margaret Falkner, she is currently dancing at Penny Lane with Renee Foster.

Australia: Skin Cancer Capital Of The World IN THE past couple years there has been an increasing interest around the use of natural oils as sunscreens. This is due to many developments in research that show natural oils do in fact posses a small amount of SPF. Lets start with the basics: Sunscreen is a lotion, spray or gel that reflects the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the skin when exposed to sunlight. SPF (or Sun Protection Factor) – is the measure of a sunscreen’s ability to prevent UV rays from damaging the skin.

Formulator Nancy Evans says “If you look at it in terms of plants, they do not need a sunscreen, their natural oils give them a protective barrier from the sun so they don’t burn.” From this thought, Nancy Evans began to research all seed oils and raw ingredients that contain a natural SPF properties to formulate a healthy organic sun cream.

Nancy Evans has developed a unique formulation which contains 7 organic raw seed oil ingredients that will protect the skin from UV and is made with organic herbs, organic essential oils and organic waxes.

The cream works by leaving an invisible coating on your skin, just like a second skin without blocking the lymph nodes! With an organic wax layer, the Organic Rosehip Sun Moisturising Cream enables your skin to breathe naturally whilst maintaining its moisture, which is particularly important in the harsh Australian dry weather.

Nothing is more important to us on Earth than the Sun. One of the amazing things sunlight provides for us is Vitamin D. It is important for the creation and maintenance of bones. Over-exposure to UV radiation may cause serious health effects, caused by tanning, sunburn, etc. Long exposure to UV radiation may accelerate skin ageing, which can lead to skin cancer. Heavy exposure to sun can also damage the eyes, leading to conditions such as cataracts.

Did you know that Queensland, Australia

is the Skin Cancer Capital of the world?

One of the most common forms of cancer globally is the skin cancer. It is especially common among people with light skin.

Australia and New Zealand have the highest rates of melanoma, the most dangerous form of skin cancer in the world.

Side Effects of Using Chemical Sunscreens Even though sunscreens are preferred for sun protection, usage of excessive sunscreens with chemicals may have its side effects.

Some of their side effects are mentioned below.

•Sunscreens may have allergic reactions as they may not be suitable for all type of skins.

•Sunscreens are not advisable for acne prone skins because the chemicals will make it worse.

•If sunscreen gets into the eye, it can cause pain and irritation. It may also lead to burning and temporary sensitivity to light.

•Sunscreens may cause itchy spots on the skin and can develop into rough red rashes that sometimes turn into pus-filled blisters around the hair follicles.

Organic Rosehip Skincare has an array of Organic Sun Care Products to form a protective layer between yourself and harsh climatic conditions. The Sun Care Products of Organic Rosehip Skincare includes Organic Sun Moisturising Cream, Tropical Sun Care and Organic Lip Balm which can be applied before and after sun exposure.

They are made out of herbal ingredients that are suitable for all types of skin. Helpful for those with sensitive skin, dry skin, eczema and psoriasis. Call Organic Rosehip Skincare on (07) 55239100 for more information or visit their factory at 2/23 Enterprise Avenue, Tweed Heads South NSW 2486

Rescue Remedy: Regain Healthy Digestion with Bowel Restore ORGANIC ROSEHIP Skincare was established in the year 1993 by Nancy Evans. She is a believer of the saying that, “A healthy skin is the reflector of a healthy body”. Keeping this vision in mind she created her own line of organic products that has been successfully treating various skin ailments of people.

Newest to the Organic Rosehip Skincare Store is Bowel Restore “Your health and beauty starts with the bowel” Nancy Evans says. Layers and layers of decayed fecal matter packed into your colon walls can cause hidden constipation, gas, bloating, fatigue, abdominal pain, and other health problems. Frightening new reports show how these toxins stored for years inside your colon can leak out and poison your cells and other organs!

Colon doctors and researchers now reveal that even if you have regular, daily bowel movements, you most likely have decade’s worth, often up to 4-5 kilos of waste matter build up on the inside of your colon, causing digestive problems. Your colon’s main job is to squeeze water and nutrients out of your food as it’s digested to keep your body hydrated and provide nourishment. When you don’t drink enough water, the food inside your colon dries out too much and gets squeezed into tiny balls of fecal matter.

Your colon packs it down so hard that these tiny balls become too hard to pass... and you become constipated! And when you do go - it’s like trying to pass boulders. That’s when your real trouble starts, because when your colon becomes overloaded, that rotting fecal matter has to go somewhere!

The most surprising thing to most people who try Bowel Restore is what a relief it is when their body starts releasing the pounds of old caked-on stuff! Often there are dark blobs, or lumps or strings of brown or gray stuff covered with mucus, even parasites!

Sometimes your excrement will be discshaped, moulded like the inside of your colon walls, because it’s been packed in for so long.

Bowel Restore’s advanced soluble Herbal fibre formula actually begins to work its triple-action magic to get you feeling great fast. Bowel Restore breaks down the built up, crusty layers of decayed fecal matter by gently scraping and scouring your colon walls clean. It purifies and carries out all the bad stuff so toxins can’t invade your bloodstream and other organs. Combining these powerful herbs and nutrients in one formula whose ingredients all work together is critical because it provides everything you need to makes true detoxifying possible by breaking down and scouring away the builtup, crusty layers of decayed fecal matter and harmful toxins.

Ingredients: Psyllium Husk, Black Walnut Hulls#, Hibiscus Rosella, Liquorice Root, Horsetail, Rosehip, Oat Straw, Slippery Elm, Cascara, Marshmallow Root, Cinnamon Verum, Irish Moss, Yucca Root, Astragalus, Chlorella, Turmeric, Bladderwrack, Wormwood, Ashwaganda, Barberry, Dandelion Root, Meadowsweet, Skullcap, Aloe Ferox, Turkish Rhubarb, Mullein, Passionflower, Witchhazel#, Paw Paw Leaf, Violet Leaf, Vanilla, Fennel Seed, Clove Bud. #Wildcrafted.

DO YOU understand your legal obligations in relation to not harming Aboriginal cultural heritage as part of any development or where you might find Aboriginal cultural heritage in the Tweed?

Would you like to know more about the new Shire-wide planning policy prepared to protect Tweed’s Aboriginal cultural heritage?

Council’s Senior Strategic Planner Robyn Eisermann said there is a long Aboriginal settlement history within the Tweed Shire which is now being more widely recognised and respected both locally and broadly across the State.

“Tweed Shire Council in partnership with the local Tweed Aboriginal community have prepared a draft Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Management Plan (ACHMP) which identifies and maps the Aboriginal cultural heritage landscape and provides a framework for the consideration and assessment of Aboriginal cultural heritage as part of all development applications within these mapped locations,” Ms Eisermann said, “Council has worked closely with the Aboriginal community principally through the Tweed Byron Local Aboriginal Land Council (TBLALC) and the Tweed Aboriginal Advisory Committee on

the development of the ACHMP. The management plan reflects the wishes of the Aboriginal community with respect of their cultural heritage.

“The ACHMP is based on current legislation. While this legislation has been in place for some time, it is not widely understood or followed. The management plan seeks to shine a light on these legislative requirements to ensure property owners and people undertaking development have the right information to both understand and meet their legal obligations,” she said.

Council’s website has interactive Aboriginal cultural heritage mapping, the management plan document and a range of fact sheets and information.

Council are currently about half way through the consultation and information sessions. Remaining sessions include: Piggabeen - Piggabeen Hall Tuesday 5 December from 5pm-6.30pm Chillingham Chillingham Hall Wednesday, December 6, from 5pm-6.30pm “You are welcome and encouraged to attend one of the many information sessions being held throughout the shire over the coming weeks and we look forward to sharing this information with you,” Ms Eisermann said.

Information on these sessions is available on the Council’s website at www.tweed.nsw. gov.au/Heritage#ACH

Final days to see Whiteley

ONLY A few days remain to see the extraordinarily popular Brett Whiteley: other places (somewhere else) exhibition at the Tweed Regional Gallery, before the collection heads off to Gosford Regional Gallery and Arts Centre.

More than 400 people have streamed through the exhibition each day since it opened in September, inspiring comments in the Visitors’ Book such as: “Brett Whiteley WOW!”; “You just have to go, it’s amazing!”; “Brett Whiteley – what can I say?

Fabulous!!”

Brett Whiteley travelled extensively throughout his life, setting down his experiences in charcoal, photographs and paint – a visual diary of Paris, New York, Tokyo and his many other destinations.

Brett Whiteley: other places (somewhere else) showcases these paintings, drawings, photographs and sketchbooks, revealing the artist’s intense desire to document his

unique vision and experiences.

The exhibition includes his early works of Paris, which have never been displayed before, and his last experiences of the city.

One of Australia’s most celebrated artists, Whiteley immersed himself in these cities, recording his impressions of the urban landscapes and the people within them, with great energy, humour and sensitivity.

He responded to New York’s dynamic environment and the broader social, artistic and political issues facing America at the time. In Japan, he saw first-hand how traditional methods of Japanese painting and drawing can beautifully and succinctly capture a subject.

Whiteley produced beautiful works throughout his travels, capturing well known and loved destinations across the world in a fresh, yet recognisable way.

Brett Whiteley: other places (somewhere else) closes on Sunday, December 3.

THE TWEED Theatre Company is holding open auditions for its forthcoming production of Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean, on Sunday, December 10.

Auditions will take place at 1pm in the South Sea Islander Room in the council administration building adjacent to the Tweed Heads Civic Centre.

The Company is looking for six females aged between 40 and 50 and one male aged between 18 and 20.

The play is set in a small Texas town in the 1970s, with the 1982 film available to view on

Youtube for anyone looking for a flavour of the production.

The play’s opening night is scheduled for Friday, March 2.

The Tweed Theatre Company is also gearing up to hold its Christmas Variety Concert on Saturday, December 16 at South Tweed Sports Club.

The event will feature the PCYC Concert Band and performers from the Theatre Company itself.

It all starts at 2pm and runs until 7.30pm.

Tickets are $15/10 and can be purchased at www.tweedtheatre.com.au, by calling 1800 674 414, or on the door on the day.

KINGSCLIFF ARTS Cinema will host a screening of the festive classic, White Christmas, along with a special Christmas party on the evening of Thursday, December 7.

The evening’s festivities will begin at 6.30pm and will feature wine, food, Christmas pudding and more. Cost is $50 per person.

White Christmas, released in 1954, stars Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney and Vera Allen, and tells the story of two former World War Two soldiers who have become singers as part of a fourpiece with a sister act. The group must use their talents to save the country inn owned by their former commander in the army.

With music by Irving Berlin, the film of course features the ubiquitous Christmas standard, White Christmas. Audience members are encouraged to sing along.

Kingscliff Arts Cinema is also holding a Christmas raffle to win a large, colourful model of Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

Tickets can be purchased from the cinema

foyer, at a cost of $10 for two. Funds raised from the raffle will go towards new projection equipment for the cinema.

Pottery open day a must see Join the fun for Twilight Race Day THE MURWILLUMBAH Potters will hold their grand Christmas sale this weekend, December 2-3, with plenty of amazing items up for grabs at great prices.

More than 15 potters are selling their wares including handcrafted pots and sculptures functional, ornamental, from substantial objects to stocking fillers.

Potters member Pamela Payne said a visit to the Fernvale potters headquarters was well worth it for local and visitors alike.

“The short drive to Fernvale (8 kilometres south of town, off Tweed Valley Way) just to visit the pottery in its 100 year old buildings is a rural gem,” she said.

“We would love for people to come out and pick up some amazing Christmas gifts, while enjoying some of the amazing scenery and even sign up for pottery classes.”

Murwillumbah potters have their work studios and kilns in what used to be the Fernvale one-teacher primary school.

“Sometime after the school closed, local craftspeople moved in,” Mrs Payne said.

“For four decades, pots have been built and thrown in spaces where generations of country children learned their ABC. “This weekend there will be demonstrations, kids’ free clay workshops and refreshments.”

To find out more phone: 0402 678 241.

THE TWEED River Jockey Club (TRJC) is pleased to announce the exciting Summer Series of Racing with three race meets starting with the Christmas Twilight event on Friday, December 8.

TRJC General Manager Leanne Moore said the December twilight meeting is a popular mainstay of the club’s racing calendar, with many local businesses using the late-afternoon, early-evening races to host their annual Christmas parties.

“This year’s entertainment will include a fashion parade, live music on the lawns and a lot more making for a great day out,” Leanne said.

“Plus free kids’ entertainment, and a grand prize to the 2018 Golden Slipper to be won.”

In conjunction with a long list of local sponsors, the TRJC are proud to announce a full TAB eight-race card totalling $160,000 in prize money plus a special trainers’ purse of $5,000 awarded to the most successful trainer over the course of the holiday-time triple-header.

Nominations for Friday week’s eight event

card close on Monday, December 4, at 11am.

One of the day’s feature races will be a 1200m open handicap “Christmas Sprint”, sure to draw quality runners from all over northern NSW and South East Queensland.

Gates open at 12pm with the first face at about 1.10pm and the last race at 5.20pm.

Admission is $15 for adults and children under 16 are free and must be accompanied by a parent. No BYO alcohol.

The next racing meets will take place January 2 and January 7 in 2018.

Murwillumbah’s most recent meeting saw about 500 racing fans turn out to watch Chin Chun ($8.50) take out the feature Courthouse Hotel Cup (Class 3 handicap, 1200m).

Chin Chun was trained by 2014 Murwillumbah Cup winning trainer, Darlene Duryea at Beaudesert.

FILMS th Mia wi

THREE SUMMERS It is hard to believe that during the excitement of a folk music festival someone can come across their true self and understand what it means to be Australian in this time and age, but a quintessential Australian film directed by Ben Elton is aiming to do just that.

Three Summers is an ensemble romantic comedy, taking place over three consecutive years in the fictional Westifal music festival, dubbed “Australia in a Tent”. The film was inspired by Elton’s longtime attendance at the Fairbridge festival in Western Australia and the idea of imagining how the lives of some of the regular attendants of the festival had changed during the years.

The main characters are an earthy, fiddle-playing Irish folk band lead singer and an arrogant techno-folk-funk musician, who are quickly attracted to each other but soon find their conflicting attitudes and outlooks getting in the way of potential romance. However, the essence of the film are the characters and subplots that develop around the young couple: people of difference ages, backgrounds and opinions who offer the opportunity – albeit with a light touch to address issues such as multiculturalism, immigration, Aboriginal reconciliation and the treatment of asylum seekers. Three Summers endeavours to squeeze as much of modern Australia into its 102-minute duration as it can..!

78691

The ensemble cast includes some great Australian performers, such as Magda Szubanski as Queenie, the festival’s leftie mother hen; Michael Caton as a grouchy old conservative grandad; Kelton Pell as the leader of an Indigenous dance troupe; John Waters as a boozy musician; and Deborah Mailman as a sympathetic AA counsellor. At the end of the film the question to be answered is: do we get along despite or because of our differences..?

By Chantal Waters HI ALL, welcome to this week’s Local Sounds at the closing of spring 2017.

We are bringing in summer with style this Saturday, December 2, at Murwillumbah’s favourite nightspot the Haven Bar, who will host a special blues night to keep you cool cats even cooler.

The night will feature some great local artists including Chris Evans, Leash Henwood and myself, Chana Waters.

So, I’d like to take this opportunity to rediscover what the blues means to me.

According to online reference Wikipedia, blues is an AfricanAmerican music that traverses a wide range of emotions and musical styles.

However, “feeling blue” is expressed in songs whose verses lament injustice or express longing for a better life and lost loves, jobs, and money. But blues is also a raucous dance music that celebrates pleasure and success.

Local musician Chris Evans is a quietly spoken man but when he sings the blues it takes you to another place and serves to define the blues.

Chris plays slide and fingerstyle guitar and blows harp to accompany his vintage blues, originals, traditional tunes and spirituals, he is a true blues man who will take you on a journey.

So, if you love the blues come and check him out, I can highly recommend.

Leash Henwood has recently moved

to the Tweed from Melbourne and this talented lady is an original songwriter.

She also covers some of the greats with a sultry voice in the vein of Amy Winehouse mixed with Adele, yes that good.

Leash will be accompanied by Mitch van Egdom on the Cajon.

I will be performing on the night with Benny Wah to bring you some great original tracks and some favourites from the likes of Muddy Waters, Gary

Moore and Etta James.

Where could you get better entertainment in the heart of Murwillumbah for free?

The Haven Bar has been supporting live music every Friday and Saturday night since it’s reopening in July.

The venue is family friendly and has great dine in options. Book a table to avoid disappointment at 13 Wharf Street, Murwillumbah by phoning (02) 6672 1139.

Chris Evans is ready to rock the Haven Bar this Saturday, December 2

Bruce looks back as he celebrates 92 years

TWEED VALLEY icon and World War II veteran Bruce McAndrew turns 92 on Friday, December 1, and has opened up another set of amazing photo albums from his time in Japan immediately after the end of World War II in 1945.

Bruce was posted to Japan following the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, joining many Australian troops in aiding Japan’s recovery effort and rebuilding.

Bruce was posted in Japan for two years, working in a mechanical factory and travelling throughout Japan to repair army machinery.

His memories remain strong after 72 years and Bruce has many photos of his time there which also provide a valuable historical glimpse into the past.

The images depict hardworking soldiers alongside Japanese people working the factories together, while seemingly coming to terms with the past six years at war.

“We weren’t allowed to befriend the Japanese people very much at the

Bruce McAndrew reflects on his time in Japan following World War II

time,” he said.

“But it was not difficult, we worked closely with them and we’d often ask each other questions, out of curiosity.”

Bruce travelled to Hiroshima only months after the atomic bombing and assisted in the recovery efforts.

“It was completely destroyed, and it was an incredible effort restoring that city, only one building remained standing,” Bruce recalled.

Images Bruce collected and photographed during his time in Japan show the extensive damage inflicted by the bomb including human remains, livestock and twisted metal all intertwined together for a kilometre in each direction.

While the horrific scenes were many,

Bruce also captured the incredible cultural aspects of Japan in its shrines, bridges and gardens.

Bruce said he remembers entering Tokyo Station where the ceiling had been peppered with bombs.

“There were two large holes in the main ceiling where the station was bombed,” he said.

“There wasn’t much left of it, but the city kept running and the rebuilding was underway.”

Bruce said he had a lot of admiration for the Japanese and their ability to pick up the pieces.

“It was amazing how resilient they were and seeing them working with allied forces to restore their country,” he said.

THE ICONIC Business Excellence Awards Tweed Shire (BEATS) has announced an exciting new era for awarding outstanding local businesses in 2018, with the merger of the three Tweed Shire Chambers.

The collaborative approach to the BEATS will include the Tweed Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Kingscliff Chamber of Commerce and Murwillumbah and District Business Chamber.

The new partnership has been labelled a huge win for the Tweed and further strengthens the relationship between the three chambers.

Murwillumbah Chamber president Ilze Jaunberzins said the new partnership will strengthen the event as well as relationships.

“BEATS enters a new era of Tweed business excellence in 2018,” Ilze wrote to The Weekly.

“Exciting times ahead for Tweed Businesses as the three Tweed Shire Chambers combine, create and collaborate to organise a whole new BEATS. “Immense gratitude is extended to past President Murwillumbah and District Business Chamber Toni Zushcke, Mike Zuschke and Natascha Wernick who established the strong foundations of the BEATS concept in the Tweed Shire.

“They led the vision for five years and were true trailblazers with great passion and enthusiasm and ignited a corporate pride in business achievements.”

Talking about the future, Ilze said there was extended strength in widening the engagement with neighbouring Chambers at Tweed and Kingscliff.

“Using the wisdom of the past and the innovative ideas for the future, BEATS sets to encourage more Tweed Shire businesses to shine,” she said.

Offshore: The kings are still out on 9mile and still testing anglers gear and skills. Sharks were into them too. Still a few down off Brunswick and are hitting hard, they are hitting just about anything at the moment. From stick baits/ poppers to live baits and jigs. There are good mixed reefies on close reefs. Try float lining half pillies and plastics for a feed. Still the odd Wahoo and Marlin chasing these smaller pack of dollies. Good packs of bait on 10min reef, point reef, Kirra and the bait grounds off of Tweed and Southport.

Estuary: Well the southerlies have slowed the jack bite down this week and has seen artificial’s catching more this week than baits. Tweed still producing this week. Try Cobaki, Chinderah, upper tally, upper Currumbin. Flathead sitting up on the flats and drop offs and channels next sand banks and weed beds.

Beaches: Some good dart in most gutters and around most headlands and rock walls. Odd tailor on beaches between Kirra and Currumbin, spinning metals at dusk and dawn producing a good feed. Soaking a whole pilchard on gangs at night is producing a few too.

Featured Business Hi everyone, I’m Rose and I have 40+ years’ experience in hairdressing. My partner and I moved to Murwillumbah 15 months ago from Mudgee NSW, where I lived for 36 years and had my own salon for 23 years. It was very successful and stable (I think it was the longest running salon in Mudgee) that says something. I had a great Clientele like family because I’d been doing their hair for many years.

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

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

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

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

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

Affordable Prices for Men, Women and Children.

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

POLICE BEAT

Charges laid after stolen car crashes Drunk driver busted with cannabis in undies into school bus at Tweed Heads

A 24-YEAR-OLD Tweed Heads man has been charged with multiple offences including reckless driving after he allegedly crashed a stolen car into a school bus at Tweed Heads.

The incident occurred around 3.20pm on Thursday, November 16, where the car collided with a school bus on Wharf Street, Tweed Heads.

A female passenger had to be extracted from the vehicle by emergency services and was transported to Gold Coast University Hospital with serious leg injuries.

The 24-year-old male driver fled the scene on foot but was later found at his home by

Tweed Police.

He was taken to The Tweed Hospital for blood and urine tests and then released pending further investigations.

Police will allege the number plates on the car were stolen from another Queensland vehicle while the car was stolen from a Tweed Heads address.

The man was arrested at his home on November 22 and was charged with reckless driving, driving unlicensed, driving a vehicle without consent and possessing goods suspected of being stolen.

He was bailed to appear before Tweed Heads Local Court on December 11.

Stolen car crashes into Tugun fence following high-speed police pursuit A 22-YEAR-OLD Tweed Heads man has faced court at the weekend following a dangerous police pursuit that started in Murwillumbah and ended with the stolen car crashing into a fence at Tugun.

Police said around 11.20pm on Saturday, November 25, a Ford Festiva failed to stop at a routine traffic stop in Murwillumbah.

“It is alleged the vehicle travelled at speeds of between 80km per hour to 90km per hour in the town’s 50km per hour and 60km/hr speed zones,” Police said in a media statement.

“The vehicle then travelled east along Tweed Valley Way into the 100km/hr speed zone and travelled at speeds of between 120km/ hr and 130km/hr.

“Police terminated the pursuit because of the dangerous manner the car was being driven.”

The same vehicle was spotted by Highway Patrol officers a short time later at Tweed Valley Way, Tumbulgum. Again, the vehicle failed to stop for police and another pursuit commenced.

“It is alleged the vehicle reached speeds of 150km/hr in the sign posted 100km/hr zone,”

Police said.

“The vehicle was pursued to the Pacific Motorway from Chinderah to Tweed Heads reaching speeds of up to 160km/hr in the sign posted 100km/hr zone.

“The vehicle was pursued through the Tugun tunnel and about one kilometre south of the Queensland border the vehicle has lost control and began spinning clockwise before colliding with fencing in the middle of the road.”

The driver, a 22-year-old man from Tweed Heads was arrested at the scene and was subjected to breath testing where no alcohol was detected.

He was taken to hospital for blood and urine tests which did not detect any alcohol.

Police allege the car was stolen from Palm Beach ten days prior.

He was charged with police pursuit, exceeding speed by more than 45km/hr and possessing stolen property from outside of NSW.

TWEED POLICE were called to the Gold Coast Highway at Tweed Heads on Friday, November 24, after a Tweed Heads man crashed his car into a fence.

Police said it was around 6.05pm when they responded to reports a car had collided with a metal fence near the entrance to the Gold Coast Highway from the Pacific Motorway at Tweed Heads.

The man, aged 34, was found by Police in his vehicle and subjected to a breath test that

returned a positive reading.

He was searched by Police who allege a bag of cannabis was found in his underwear. He was arrested a taken to Tweed Heads Police Station where further breath analysis allegedly returned a reading of 0.167.

Police said that man’s driver’s licence had expired in 2014 and was charged with unlicensed driving, possession of a prohibited drug and high-range drink driving.

He received bail and will appear before Tweed Heads Local Court on December 11.

TWEED POLICE have uncovered 54 cannabis plants and a python during a search of a Commissioners Creek home on Wednesday, November 22.

Police said they were approached by the occupant of the home, a 26-year-old man, who was in a “allegedly agitated and angry manner”.

“It is alleged police seized 54 cannabis plants, 444 grams of cannabis leaf and a python,”

Tweed Police said in a media statement.

“The snake was handed to officers from National Park and Wildlife Service.”

The man was charged with possessing a prohibited plant, cultivating a prohibited plant, obstructing/hindering a person executing a search warrant and possessing a prohibited drug.

He was bailed to appear before Tweed Heads Local Court on December 11.

Police uncover drugs and python at Commissioners Creek home

Police pepper spray Man charged with Murwillumbah assault Burringbar man TWEED POLICE said they were forced to use pepper spray on a 31-year-old Burringbar man during a violent struggle in a Murwillumbah Park.

Police said the incident occurred around 12.45pm where the man was alleged to be in the possession of alcohol in an alcohol free zone.

“As police were attempting to seize the alcohol and man pushed past police and ran off,” Police said in a media statement.

“The man was pursued and caught a short time later. As police grabbed the man he struggled violently and police had to use OC spray to stop him from lashing out.

“The man was arrested and police allegedly located cannabis in a bag he was carrying.”

A 33-YEAR-OLD man has been charged with assault after an incident at a Murwillumbah shopping centre where a security officer was kicked in the knee.

Police said they were called to the scene where the man allegedly tried to run from police but was arrested a short distance away.

He was charged with assault and will appear before Murwillumbah Local Court on December 19.

Bowls Notes

with Judy Tuckey

THE T.B.D.W.B.A. District Shield, after being washed out in mid October, was conducted at Ocean Shores last week. Formatted with two teams from each club over 3 games of 13 ends, this fiercely contested tournament began with a shaky start as a short heavy shower during the first end of the first game sent the ladies scampering for cover. However, the skies cleared and the event progressed as scheduled.

At the completion of Round 1 Ocean Shores were on top of the leader board following their wins in both games.

Condong and Kingscliff were not far behind. Come Round 2 with three clubs having won both games, there was a changing of the guard. Cudgen Leagues was now leading the pack with a score of 3 + 21. Brunswick Heads had stepped up a notch and were there on 3 + 12 with Ocean Shores now relegated to third position on 3 – 7. Round 3, the final round, and it was still anyone’s Shield. Heavy rain during the lunch break slowed the greens somewhat, creating a new ball game.

Brunswick Heads dropped one game but were still in contention on 4 + 11. Pottsville teams fired up well collecting 2 wins + 23 to bring their overall total to 4 + 31. However, Cudgen Leagues, sensing victory was in the air, dug deep in the final round to collect a count of 2 + 6. With an overall score of 5 + 27 the Shield was theirs. Well done ladies.

Cabarita Beach W.B.C. has just been on the receiving end of a wonderful exciting week. W.B.N.S.W. State President, Maryann Parcell, was on hand last Tuesday for the ceremonial unfurling of the 2017 State Grade 3 Pennant Flag that the girls won in August. Thursday night – more excitement as Joy Lake and Michelle Freeman were in Sydney attending the 2017 Women’s Bowls Night of Champions.

Joy, one of the five finalists in the 2017 Senior Bowler of the Year category, was pipped by Beth Quinlan. Michelle was there representing the Club – one of the three finalists in the 2017 Country Club of the Year section. Raymond Terrace collected this Award. Whilst the ladies didn’t bring home any “Gongs”, they have most certainly put Cabarita and

To get an entry go to https://www.surfingaustralia.com/states/ qld/events Honolua Bay Underway at Maui Well it has come down to the final event of the years, with 5 women who can win the World Title, but two are long shots at best.

One of them Kingscliff Supergirl, Stephanie Gilmore, is not even giving herself much of a chance with Gilmore having to win the event and hope the other girls are knocked out in the second round. Carissa Moore is in the same situation, so it is really a battle between Courtney Conologue, Sally Fitzgibbon, and Tyler Wright. My money is on Tyler, but anything can happen. Check the action from about 4am each morning on the WSL website or Foxsports.

THE CLUB conducted its annual carnival last Sunday with competitors from ten clubs represented although not in large numbers. They faced a pumping surf and strong northerly sweep, which made for a long course but could catch a wave home from almost the buoys.

Our girls team once again dominated winning fourteen events in their age groups and stepping up into open. Chloe Jones posted seven wins in -19 and open events in surf races and iron woman. In the 17 year Elise O’Callaghan, Paige Leishman, Mette Klinkers and Sophie Boyd won individual and team events. Lily O’Sullivan won the 15 yr. board, iron woman and beach flags and the board rescue with Ginger Allen.

In the male events, Luke Chaffer, Baily Copeland, Scott McCartney, Josh Jones, Angus McPhail, Rory McPhail, Rory Matthews and Jordan Elabbasi had individual and team podium wins in the open and age contests. Eli Hughes won the -15 board and Stirling Crawford the beach

sprint.

Overall 27 first placing’s and 20 minor enabled the team to win the overall point score and retain the N.B.N. Shield.

Thanks go to the members responsible for the day in the early morning set up and pull down of the competition area, the I.R.B. water safety crews and the catering ladies.

Another busy weekend ahead with the Kingscliff triathlon with the club providing the water safety with an early start.

Kingy Tri Road Closures

THE TWEED Coast Holiday Parks Kingscliff Triathlon returns to swim the creek and pound the pavement for the 16th year of the iconic event this Sunday, December 3.

The triathlon is offered in five distances, including two specifically tailored to kids with thousands of spectators and visitors expected to visit the Shire.

Organisers also have their fingers crossed that next year’s Commonwealth Games has a cascading effect on local participation in the Kingy Tri. “The kids’ races start the day and it’s the favourite part of the event for our team,” says Event Manager Kevin Pready.

“The last few years we have had great participation from the local kids. It’s fantastic to see so many have a go at their first triathlon and get active with this great sport.”

With the draw of numerous races on the program, Kingscliff village and accommodation houses expect a sizable spectator crowd, many of whom will be keen to witness strong performances by both pro and local athletes.

In the ‘Open’ category, four-time Kingscliff Triathlon champion Courtney Gillfillan is setting her sights on a fifth title and previous winner Adam Gordon hopes to stay ahead

of last year’s runner up Dan Stein to win his second title.

The community involvement for the triathlon continues to be as strong as ever with many local groups providing volunteers and raising funds for their organisations including: Tweed South Rotary (20); Pottsville & District Mens Shed (12); Currumbin Dragon Boaters (12); Tweed Raiders Junior Rugby League Club (14); Tweed Valley Tri Club (10); and, Murwillumbah Venturer Scouts (10).

Water safety is being managed by the Cudgen Headland Surf Lifesaving Club.

The Club is also an official charity for the event.

“The involvement of the local community is ingrained within the Kingscliff Triathlon,” says Race Director Mike Crawley.

“The triathlon in Kingscliff is a community sports event that celebrates our wonderful beachside location.

“For many athletes, it’s their first time on the Tweed Coast and it is a great showcase weekend to bring people back for a holiday at another time.”

Event organisers wanted to thank local residents and businesses for working with the event despite any inconvenience caused by road closures.

TIPS FROM THE RANGE

with Graeme Trew

Pitching Most golfers either struggle to judge distance, or miss hit small lofted shots poorly.

There are several systems on how to hit pitch shots. The one I use is really quite simple.

1. Start without a club and get into your golf posture. Now lets take a very small swing where by your hands swing just past your right knee and finish just past your left knee to finish.

2. Next we go from hip to hip, rib to rib, chest to chest, shoulder to shoulder and head to head.

3. Now rehearse these length swings with a lob wedge or a sand wedge.

4. You need to have a consistent rhythm to become consistent 5. Time to add a ball and to work out how far the ball will travel in the air with each different length swing.

Get to the range and practice this shot as you could shave many shots from your score!
