Price rise positivity BY MICHAEL SCALZO

unicipal leaders are confident extraordinary houseprice rises in Ararat district indicate how attractive the area is becoming to people exploring a move to western Victoria.

They believe the trend, which shows a 12-monthly price rise of 32 percent, reflects growing widespread acknowledgement and understanding of the rural city’s opportunities and growth. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison said the increase in property investment in the municipality represented a net-positive for the Ararat region.

He said residential house-price increases and accompanying rising demand for homes in Ararat were an opportunity for the community to grow. “The increased demand means the market is buoyant and people are looking at Ararat as an attractive place to live,” he said. “The council has been working hard with property developers to deliver this demand for housing. Green Hill Lakes is a great example of these subdivision projects.” A prominent online property website’s December quarter figures showed Ararat recording the fifthhighest yearly residential house-price

increase in regional Victoria – behind coastal destinations including Surfcoast and Warrnambool regions. The report shows residential house prices in Ararat rose by 32 percent from December 2020, while neighbouring council areas Horsham and Northern Grampians rose by 19 and 20 percent, respectively. House prices in the Surfcoast and Alpine regions grew by more than 46 percent and 43 percent in 12 months. Dr Harrison said while house-price rises had the potential to price some buyers out of the market, a major benefit was an opportunity for significant population growth in Ararat. “We know that towns with more

than 10,000 people start to become sustainable and Ararat is just under this number at the moment. So it is a great outcome that people see Ararat as somewhere to live,” he said. Dr Harrison emphasised the council’s partnership with private developers to establish suitable new land for housing. “We are working very closely with housing developers to produce more houses to meet that demand and our planning department works extremely hard with ensuring subdivision options,” he said. Ararat mayor Jo Armstrong echoed Dr Harrison’s sentiment that the increase in house prices reflected the

region’s attraction to intra-state migrants. “There is a great deal of migration across the state at the moment and we want to make sure people understand the wide appeal of Ararat to live and work,” she said. “We are two hours from Melbourne, we have a great health service and digital connectivity that allows people to ship their career to a rural location and maintain their previous job and lifestyle. “We have a clear goal to increase our total population over the next three years and we want to facilitate diversity in the housing market.” Continued page 3

Hot water – as simple as turning on a tap It seems amazing today in a modern world that society considered having a household hot-water system a luxury.

the hot-water services and provided people with confidence that they would never run out of hot water. And that is important,” he said. He said the Rinnai Infinity system range included a ‘Builders’ range of standard 16, 20 and 26-litre models.

In relative terms, before the readily available connections to gas and electricity we can now enjoy, hot water came from a glorified kettle on a wood stove.

He said a wide ‘Infinity’ range of premium models included12, 16, 20, 26, Touch, 32 and new 28-litre Internal models.

There would be some still among us who would remember those days, especially if they had childhoods in remote rural areas.

“An ‘Enviro’ range comes with highly efficient seven-star-equivalent condensing models in 16, 26 and 32 litres,” he said.

But being part of a modern Australian society means those Spartan days are long gone and what we look at now is how far water-heating technology has come and accompanying efficiencies. While the basics of understanding modern hot-water systems is now commonplace, market demand for high-quality and seamless operation has led to outstanding products. Access to instant hot water, after all, has almost become a right more than privilege to the average Australian householder. Wade’s in Horsham constantly keep a close eye on these developments and through a process of analysis and assessment have identified Rinnai hot-water systems as their products of choice. Wade’s recommend, install and service electric and gas Rinnai systems for customers across the Wimmera and beyond.

“When it comes to Rinnai Gas Hotflo systems, 135 and 170-litre models available that run on natural or LPG gas.

Mr Crowe said Rinnai caused a stir in the hot-water-supply industry in the early 1990s when it pioneered continuous-flow hot-water systems.

“Infinity and Enviro models come with a market-leading 13+12-year heat-exchanger warranty of up to 25 years and have a three-year cover for parts and labour, which increases to five years if two or more hot-water controllers are installed with the unit.

Mr Crowe said “The products are designed for easy change-over, with inlets and outlet locations the same as older three and four-star

Farm-energy project change Price rise A

BY DEAN LAWSON

concept to explore transformational on-farm ‘green’ hydrogen generation, storage and use at Kalkee has become a standalone Wimmera project.

Thomas Blair’s Energy Independent Farming Pty Ltd, EIF, has consolidated within multi-faceted agricultural family business Blairfarms, which will continue to pursue emerging renewable-energy capture and storage technology. EIF, which announced the proposal and pursued funding opportunities in mid-2021, had previously involved an interstate partner. Mr Blair said there had been a need for project management reassessment, streamlining and direction, which had

‘for the moment’ stalled development. But he remained enthusiastic and optimistic in pushing forward with plans. “There’s a lot of work that needs to be done and some challenges with emerging technologies, but that’s the nature of research and development,” he said. “Pursuing this type of energy project is the way of the future and there is no reason why we in the Wimmera can’t be at the forefront of this development, particularly when it involves the agricultural industry. “We’ve had a bit a hiccup in a need to establish the best management model but we’re still very keen and looking for the best way forward. “We don’t want to promise too much, but we do want to continue exploring this project.

“The priority for the moment has shifted to a couple of other major business projects and the plan is to start redeveloping the proposal later this year so it can evolve in an organic way.” A redirection in planning involves concentrating on establishing an energy-generation prototype to provide an example of how farms and farm business could become energy independent. Mr Blair said the concept was about the region exploring the possibilities of emerging technologies that could apply generally to broadacre farming. “The project has scope to achieve many outcomes but the primary focus is establishing a way that farmers can gain energy independence,” he said. The project will concentrate on es-

tablishing an energy-generating farm prototype on the site of Blair’s PB Seeds processing centre on Blue Ribbon Road, north of Horsham. A process involves using solar andor wind energy to produce ‘green’ hydrogen, a renewable alternative to diesel, via on-farm electrolysis. “That’s the ultimate goal – to create a model, prototype or blueprint that can replace farm and agricultural-industry reliance on diesel,” Mr Blair said. He said despite the concept having already undergone almost two years of scrutiny, there was a pressing need for considerably more planning. “In some areas we will need to pretty much start again, but the foundations are there,” he said.

From page 1 Ararat council will provide ‘rental guarantees’ for private developers to ‘de-risk development of transitionalworker housing’. Dr Harrison said the council was not planning to ‘intervene’ in the housing market but rather manage developers’ ‘risk’. “We are very keen to not distort the market,” he said. Cr Armstrong said the council was engaging with developers to ensure affordable rent remained a part of the region’s housing options. “A free market is a free market. It is a fact of life that not everyone can get a deposit to pay a mortgage and own their own home,” she said. “The council’s rental guarantee to developers is a bottom-line guarantee that emphasises our confidence we can attract people to fill the jobs on offer in the region. “It is part of our solution to market failures that meant Ararat wasn’t considered attractive to owners and investors.” Elders Real Estate Ararat director David Jennings said Ararat was relatively close to Melbourne and attractive for city migrants seeking workfrom-home flexibility. “Green Hill Lake was really needed in the region, but while there is low supply, these rises will continue,” he said. “There is a mix of investors and first-home buyers in the market, locally and from Melbourne.” He said it was only a matter of time before interest rates went up and he hoped people had enough money to cover unexpected costs.

Police call for information

BACK TO SCHOOL: Students across the region pulled on their backpacks, some for the very first time, and headed off to start the school year this week following a long summer break. The Weekly Advertiser photographer PAUL CARRACHER captured the excitement and anticipation of some foundation students on their first day of school at Horsham Primary School and Ss Michael and John’s Primary School. Pictured, clockwise from above, are: Petronella Jacobs and Callum Henshaw, starting foundation at Horsham Primary School; grade six student Christopher Burton, left, with his buddy Lenny Price at Ss Michael and John’s Primary School; and Jarvis Bird, Ryan Bird, Addison Bird, foundation, Harper Bird, grade two, and Hayley Bird at Horsham Primary School.

Police have asked for community help in an investigation of a minor collision involving two cars in Wilson Street, Horsham, on December 16 last year. Leading Senior Constable Robert Martin said anyone with dash-camera footage or information about the incident should get in touch with him on 5382 9201 or Crimestoppers on 1800 333 000. He said the incident occurred between noon and 1pm in front of BJ’s Furniture and Bedding store. He added that police had a photograph of a red Commodore at the scene at the time of the incident and were keen to speak with the driver.

Emergency services warn of dangers A

BY NICK RIDLEY

n emergency-services leader has urged people still involved in summer holiday activities in the Wimmera to remain wary of the impact of a damaging storm front that crossed Victoria last week.

Victoria State Emergency Service state agency commander Jackson Bell said personnel had mainly responded to flooding, fallen trees and branches and building damage. “We know there might also be campers enjoying the outdoors. Those camping should secure sites – and not take shelter under trees – as there is still a risk of falling branches or whole trees,” he said. “Choose your campsite well and stay away from the edge of creeks that might be subject to flash flooding. Mr Bell said individuals should never drive on flooded roads because it might be the last decision they make.

From January 26 to 29, State Emergency Services across mid and northwest Victoria responded to 574 incidents. Of those calls, 218 related to flooding; 211 to trees down and 115 to building damage. Summarising VICSES details from Wimmera centres: Ararat unit fielded five calls for help, three for building damage and two for trees down; Horsham unit, 24 trees down, six building damage, and three for flood. Country Fire Authority District 16 assistant chief fire officer Bernie Fradd said the rain had put out most fires caused by lightning strikes started on Australia Day. He said fire fighters from CFA districts 16 and 17 responded to reports of spot fires across the region. Wimmera Catchment Management Authority statutory and strategic manager Tony Baker said the thunderstorms that occurred on Australia Day were isolated events.

He said there was a little rise in the catchment’s gauge at Eversley. GWMWater storage manager Kym Wilson said as of January 25, Grampian’s reservoirs were holding 36.84 percent of their capacity. He said summer evaporation would offset much of the gain in volume from last week’s storms. “About 20mm to 40mm of rain fell across Grampians reservoirs between January 26 and January 28,” he said. Bureau climatologists are continuing to closely follow conditions in the tropical Pacific Ocean, influencing weather across Australia, as well as other climate models. The Bureau of Meteorology has predicted a return to settled weather for the Wimmera for the next few weeks. The outlook comes after emergency services and various authorities across the region assessed the impact of the storm front that crossed the region, sparking lighting-strike fires, minor flooding and felling trees.

DOWNPOUR: Wet weather last week had emergency services on alert. Two low-lying areas in Horsham, subject to flooding in the past, were awash after heavy rain. McPherson Street, above, near Hosham velodrome, and O’Callaghan Parade, bottom left, created traffic hazards. Lightning strikes, as seen below from Big Hill, Stawell, occurred across the region.

Weather set to stabilise F

BY NICK RIDLEY

orecasters are predicting a return to dry and settled weather across the Wimmera after a week of storms and heavy rain.

Bureau of Meteorology meteorologist Miriam Bradbury said Wimmera residents could expect a period of dry and generally settled weather, with mild to warm days and cool to mild nights. She said predictions were that rain across the Wimmera from February to April would be average and accompany above-average temperatures. Ms Bradbury provided forecast details after a major low-pressure weather pattern moved across Victoria, dumping from 4.2mm at Kaniva to 62.9mm at Ararat from January 24 to 30 and continuing across Victoria and into NSW. Storms and above-average summer rain predictions had been part of confirmation of a La Niña system influencing south-eastern Australia. Ms Bradbury said the La

Niña, the opposite of El Niño and based on Pacific Ocean temperatures and currents, was likely at its peak. She said most meteorological models indicated a return to neutral conditions during February and March. “La Niña is a climate driver, not a weather trigger, so no single weather event can be tied to La Niña,” she said. But she said the system had created humid weather and most of the state had experienced wetter-than-normal conditions and a higher likelihood of severe thunderstorms and heavy rain. The thunderstorm activity produced lightning strikes across the Wimmera last week, sparking a series of alarms, but Ms Bradbury said the threat of ‘dry’ lightning was at a ‘very’ low risk for the Wimmera. She said humid air carrying a lot of moisture had continued across the Wimmera and developing storms also produced rain. “Storms are not a high risk over the remainder of the fore-

cast period, so the risk of dry lightning for the week ahead will continue to remain negligible,” she said. Official rain figures across the Wimmera between January 24 and 30 showed Hor-

sham recorded 57mm, Ararat 62.9 mm, Stawell 38.2mm, Warracknabeal 63mm, Edenhope recorded about 39.2mm, Rupanyup 45.6mm and Kaniva 4.2mm.

Two sides to rising property value A

dramatic rise in the value of property across the region comes as a double-edged sword. From an overwhelmingly positive perspective, a dramatic rise in the cost of houses and land in our regional centres reflects a response to obvious demand – which in turn suggests people are both keen to invest and live here. There is a strong argument that it is a position that can only, in the long term, feed a strong and healthy over-arching economic environment, growth and vibrancy. A busy community where people are active and spending money is usually a healthy community that is moving forward. But, as always, much depends on individual perspective. For many there is also an equally strong argument that the blossoming value of property threatens the long-held Austra-

EDITORIAL By Dean Lawson

lian dream of being able to own your own home. And this circumstance, familiar to and a by-product of other parts of Australia that have enjoyed economic vibrancy, might be emerging stronger than ever in our own back yards. The rapid rise in land and house prices, sometimes fuelled by property investors, must be intimidating to young couples or families trying to transfer to or considering shifting from a rental to mortgage environment. It’s tough. This socio-economic glass half-full or

half-empty scenario and a society need to cover as many demographic bases as possible, is why a need for social housing has gained momentum in the region. It is also one of the reasons municipal councils, apart from trying to seize obvious development opportunities, have been working feverishly to open the door for new residential sub-divisions. To the layperson, considering all the schemes, processes, predictions, perceptions and other influencing factors in the property market, it all appears rather perplexing. In the past the issue was all simply based on interest rates. Perhaps this, to some degree, remains the case. There are plenty of commentators and development leaders talking about change sweeping through the regional Victorian landscape. We can only ponder whether this is all part of an evolution.

Online auditions for showcase A Horsham performing arts group has started auditions for its first stage show in two years, after multiple COVID-19 restriction-induced show cancellations. Horsham Arts Council announced its ‘Broadway Showcase’ stage show would go ahead in May, after adapting its production process for social-distancing requirements. Arts council president Jessica Wilson said auditions for the Broadway musical variety show had moved online, as did recent information sessions for stage hopefuls. “Usually the process is in person, COVID-19 has made us go completely online for these auditions,” she said. “People will record themselves singing musical numbers, submit it to us and our panel will meet online in its own time to review them. “It is actually a really streamlined process where everyone can take their time, and we can take notes and discuss the audition videos properly.” Mrs Wilson said the online process would not be for everyone, but might encourage those who had not been in a stage production to audition in the comfort of their own home. “People are getting used to adapting after the past couple years, we are all more flexible now,” she said. The arts council production originally had a cast of 80 but was reduced to 30 to make the show more adaptable to social-distancing regulations. “We have been looking at including a few understudies as well, in case COVID-19 policies do impact us again,” she said.

Mrs Wilson said an information video

would remain online for people still eager to participate. She said the committee was excited to see audition videos. “Now I just have to sit and wait and refresh the Google drive,” she said. “I am excited to see some experienced theatre people audition, but hopefully some people that make me say ‘wow, where were you hiding all this time?’.” – Michael Scalzo

Green light for barefoot event O

BY MICHAEL SCALZO

ne of Australia’s largest waterskiing events will go ahead in Dimboola this month after two-years of COVID-19 cancellations.

Peter Taylor Memorial Barefoot Water Ski Tournament and Night Jump will return to the Wimmera River on February 18 and 19, with Australia’s elite water-skiers attending. The event is a collaboration between Dimboola Boat and Water Ski Club and Barefoot South Australia. Dimboola club president Darren Bone said the event was more than a traditional ski tournament. “People who have not witnessed these elite sports people need to be there to see them fly past your face,” he said. “To witness everything first-hand, it is an absolute crazy adrenaline rush.” Mr Bone said Australia’s top-10 barefoot skiers would compete in the tournament, ‘hopefully’ in front of at least 1000 or more people. “We want as many people as we can at the river in Dimboola. It would be great to have the riverbank completely full with everyone we can fit, within COVID-19 protocols,” he said. The night jump, on both Friday and Saturday nights, will feature skiers competing to launch themselves as far as possible from a one-metre-high barefoot jump at 70 kilometres an hour. Mr Bone said the night jump, under lights and with accompanying commentary, would ‘absolutely rock the house’.

He said one of Australia’s fastest jetboats would also put on a show as part of the weekend entertainment. “This jet boat has 1800 horsepower and can go from zero to 100 kilometres an hour in about 0.3 seconds,” he said. “It’s so loud – shockingly loud and goes like a cut missile.”

Champ returns

South Africa’s freestyle barefoot champion Andre De Villers has pulled out of the tournament due to COVID-19 related international border issues, but Mr Bone said Ben Franks, the tournament’s reigning champion, would return to defend his title. “We hope to have Andre out here as soon we can, he still wants to get out for the tournament in future years, which is great,” he said. “He is like a god, there is almost no one like him on the water.” The event is in honour of a ‘great mate’ of Dimboola Boat and Ski Club, Peter Taylor, who died of oesophagus cancer in 2017. Mr Bone said Mr Taylor was a largerthan-life personality who ‘touched’ people right across the ski community. He said there would be a charity auction after competition on Saturday afternoon, with proceeds raised going to Wimmera Against Cancer in Kids, WACK. Items up for auction include wakeboards, skis, ski-handles and clothing. Mr Bone said a ‘very special’ Welcome to Country ceremony would be staged before Saturday evening’s night jump, with Ben Muir and Aunty Nancy Harrison from Dimboola.

Berry: Expo a good foundation Wimmera Regional Sport Assembly’s first sport expo has provided a new way for people looking to join sporting communities to browse clubs and competitions in the region. Sporting groups set up stalls and organisers from different sporting codes introduced themselves to potential members face-to-face at the weekend while showcasing a variety of Wimmera sporting pursuits. Assembly executive officer David Berry said while the first expo, in Horsham, was relatively

small, it represented a solid foundation for similar events in the future. “It was quiet for the first expo, but that is what we expected. The good thing is we have started and given the clubs that were there a chance to showcase themselves,” he said. “With the clubs that were there it means we have had a chance to chat to them as well. “We could see how they are doing and be there for them and their challenges in this postCOVID recovery.

“What is important is we built a discussion about our sporting community. “We are giving it a go and trying something different to build membership bases.” Mr Berry said the assembly planned more sports expos in the near future and now people knew it was happening, would have more time to make the most of the opportunity. “I think we will do it each year. It will grow. Of course, we will take feedback and see how we go in the future,” he said.

Charity ride hits the road BY NICK RIDLEY

charity event raising money for East Grampians Health Service while recognising fallen police officers will roar to life on Sunday. Victoria Police Blue Ribbon Foundation Ararat branch Grampians Ride to Remember has attracted about 500 motorcyclists who will ride a 197-kilometre circuit from Ararat and through the Grampians-Pyrenees region. Registration starts at 7am at Ararat RSL and a safety briefing will begin at 8.30am in the RSL car park. Police will have the honour of starting the ride at 9am, when they will wave chequered flags. The Ararat branch hopes to raise $65,000 for x-ray equipment in the John McNally Medical Imaging Department at East Grampians Health Service in Ararat. Spokesman Dean Pinniger said a wide variety of groups and organisations would be present on the day. “There will be display tents from groups such as Psychs on Bikes, an organisation that focuses on mental health, and the police Blue Ribbon van will be selling merchandise,” he said. “Ararat Lions Club will provide lunch at the Alexandra Gardens.” Mr Pinniger said the event also supported communities and busi-

nesses in the Ararat region. “It’s been a difficult thing to arrange because of COVID-19, but we have chosen not to cancel it this year,” he said. Mr Pinniger said the event would be consistent with COVID-19 mandates and assured the safety of Ararat community was a priority for organisers. “We have made sure that all riders who are attending are double vaccinated,” he said. Mr Pinniger said the ride had been going strong for 14 years and had benefitted many people in Ararat. “The organisers hope the ride will continue year-after-year,” he said.

Circuit

Participants will travel through rural countryside within Ararat and Pyrenees municipalities. Riders will stop for a 45-minute break at Des Brennan reserve at Buangor. The group will then head onto Raglan, Elmhurst, into the Pyrenees via Wimmera River valley, Glenlofty and onto Malakoff forest. The riders’ final leg will be through Landsborough before heading back via Crowlands to lunch in the gardens. ACE Radio, Ararat RSL, Horsham Harley Davidson and Shannon’s Insurance are sponsors of the event.

Farmers watch border dispute W

BY NICK RIDLEY

immera grain growers are part of a global audience closely following developments as tensions build in Eastern Europe between Ukraine and Russia.

With Ukraine a major global supplier of wheat, a conflict between the countries, apart from being an international disaster, could also influence trade markets and ultimately the price of Wimmera grain. Murra Warra farmer David Jochinke said wheat prices had already risen by about $30 as a result of anxiety surrounding the potential of the countries going into a military conflict “There was an increase in price at the start of last week when the Russian forces gathered at the border,” he said. “If Russia and Ukraine are going to have a dispute there will most likely be an effect on the supply and demand of wheat and its price globally.” The Russian government had deployed about 100,000 troops on the Ukrainian border late last week. Mr Jochinke, who travelled through

the Ukraine in 1997, said the country had some of the best agricultural soil in the world, which meant it was competitive on the international market. “When I visited Ukraine, their topsoil was over a metre deep in many places,” he said. “The organic matter in the soil meant they had fewer input requirements, which kept the costs to grow their crops low. “If you took out one of the larger wheat exporters such as Ukraine, it would tighten up supplies in an industry that is already struggling with logistics.” Ukraine is one of the largest exporters of wheat globally, producing 12 percent of the world’s supply this year. Mr Jochinke said Ukraine had one main export seaport in Odessa and if the dispute continued, transportation from Ukraine would become difficult. He said there was a high degree of market uncertainty in this type of situation, but one outcome might be that the price of wheat would continue to rise.

“If you took out one of the larger wheat exporters such as Ukraine, it would tighten up supplies in an industry that is already struggling with logistics”

Mr Jochinke said Australian broadacre farmers, although exposed to the crippling market effects of drought, had no exposure to circumstances such as the threat of war. He said they now found themselves

Minister meets cadet surveyor Local Government Minister Shaun Leane used a visit to the Wimmera to meet a cadet employee in a municipal Women Building Surveyors Program. Mr Leane spent time with Isabelle Fuller, taking part in the program at Northern Grampians Shire Council. Local Government Victoria, in partnership with LGPro, councils and training providers are running the $6.3-million State Government program. The program has opened opportunities for 40 women to gain employment in Victorian councils across the state in what has been the historically and predominantly male field of building surveying. Councils received $150,000 in funding through the program to train and subsidise the employment of a cadet. Ms Fuller has started a Bachelor of Building Surveying through Victoria University and is now a municipal building surveyor cadet with Northern Grampians council’s Community Safety and Amenity Team.

confronted with an uneasy situation, where they might benefit from serious conflict overseas. “While it is an opportunity for us in farming, on a humanitarian scale it is also quite terrifying,” he said. He said the potential European conflict and how it could inadvertently create short supply in an already high-demand market for the quality of wheat, might give confidence to Australian farmers to grow crops with higher-than-usual input costs. “There are a lot of factors about this type of environment – volatility gives you opportunity – but you need to have smart management at all levels to manage the risk,” he said.

FIVE-DAY forecast

Highway work Roadwork on a 1.2-kilometre section of the Wimmera Highway at Dooen will help consolidate transport operations involving Wimmera Agriculture and Logistics Hub. The State Government is investing $863,000 on the project, between Molyneaux Road and Dooen School Road. The highway, apart from the thousands of drivers who use the road, also includes trucks travelling to and from the logistics hub, which provides intermodal rail and road transport facilities. Hundreds of thousands of tonnes of grain move between Wimmera farms and domestic and international trade markets, making the area one of regional Victoria’s busiest rail freight hubs. Construction was scheduled to start last month, with the government expecting work to take about eight weeks to complete. The project follows the completion of works to rebuild a three-kilometre section of the highway at Vectis.

BREAKING GROUND: Northern Grampians council cadet surveyor Isabelle Fuller. Mayor Tony Driscoll said the government investment had helped solidify council’s commitment to gender equality and meet a shortage of building surveyors. “We are grateful to the State Government for funding and subsidising the training and employment of Ms Fuller,” he said.

“This initiative has enabled us to provide an opportunity for a woman to become a fully qualified professional municipal building surveyor and assist council with a significant number of exciting residential and non-residential building projects that require approvals in our shire’s growing economy.”

Ag opportunity for graduates BY MICHAEL SCALZO

immera and southern Mallee students will have the opportunity to gain on-farm job experience as part of a government initiative addressing barriers to agricultural work in the regions.

A Federal Government and National Farmers’ Federation initiative, AgCAREERSTART is a gap-year program matching high-school graduates with regional farmers. Federation chief executive Tony Mahar said the program would give students the chance to learn new skills and explore Australia’s ‘beautiful’ regions. “Young people are finishing school in a world of uncertainty,” he said. “They still need that well-earned break from study, and they want to gain independence, even more so after almost two years of online lessons and being stuck at home.

“Our program participants will be matched with an on-farm job, provided training and development, and granted access to industry events and experiences with their cohort. “They can learn something new in a hands-on way, while gaining valuable life experience. “If the pandemic has taught us anything, it’s to make the most of every opportunity. Travel might always be possible, but a program like this doesn’t come along every day.” Successful students will be employed under award wages on farms for up to 12 months, receive VET scholarships and be able to access government funded relocation assistance. Placements will start in March and spots for students and host-farmers are still open. People can register interest for the program online at agcareerstart.com.au.

Council plan to ‘detox your home’ Ararat council will allow residents to dispose of toxic chemicals for free next month in a plan to make the region safer and more sustainable. Ararat Rural City Council, partnering with Sustainability Victoria, will accept unwanted household chemicals at Ararat Transfer Station on ‘Detox Your Home Day’, March 19, between 1.30pm and 3.30pm. Council chief executive Tim Harrison said people could dispose of chemicals such as cleaning products, pool chemi-

cals, pesticides, kerosene and brake fluid. “Household chemicals can be dangerous if left around the home, posing risks to children and pets,” he said. “In addition to harm these items pose to family members, they can also add extra fuel to a fire in and around the home. Start cleaning up around the home now.” The event is contactless, drive-through only and registration is necessary. Details of items not accepted can be found on council’s website, www.ararat. vic.gov.au along with a registration form.

CONTINUING THE CULTURE: Holy Trinity Lutheran College has elected its leaders for 2022. Pictured are school captains Maddy Toet and Ryan Pfitzner, centre, and vicecaptains Dana Haughton, left, and Sabian Panozzo. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Student leaders excited for year Maddy Toet and Ryan Pfitzner are excited about the opportunity to lead Horsham Holy Trinity Lutheran College in 2022 after being elected school captains. Ryan said he was looking forward to representing the school at community events, such as Anzac Day services, along with advocating for his fellow students. “Hopefully I can give a voice to the students and put some ideas forward,” he said. “Hopefully we’re not at home for any of the school year.” Ryan said he had enjoyed watching the college develop throughout his time at the school. “There’s a few more students than when I started in prep, which is good to see,” he said. “It’s been great fun, I’ve met a lot of great people. There’s a really good culture and a good group of kids.”

JUNIOR CAPTAINS: From left, Frazer Shurdington, Soren Foster, Maya Przibilla and Charlotte Matuschka are 2022 school captains. Maddy, who started at the college in year eight, echoed Ryan’s comments about the school’s culture. “I love how everyone gets along with everyone else, regardless of what grade they are in,” she said. “The students are great and the teachers are passionate about their subjects and attention to detail.” Maddy said the incoming year12s would be the first cohort to benefit from the senior centre’s

newly opened second stage. “We’ll be the first year-12 class to fully use the facility,” she said. “It will be good to see everything in use.” Maddy and Ryan will be supported by vice-captains Dana Haughton and Sabian Panozzo. Frazer Shurdington, Soren Foster, Maya Przibilla and Charlotte Matuschka are junior school captains for 2022.

Raising the curtain for the first time

Wimmera theatre group will stage its first production at Ararat Town Hall in March, bringing to life an Australian rendition of a modern murder-mystery.

Ararat Youth Theatre will perform ‘Mystery at Mo’s’, based within a humble Australian eatery. Ararat Youth Theatre founder and president Zafirah Davies-Harrison said the group was excited to put ‘Mystery at Mo’s’ on stage for the first time. “Mystery at Mo’s is set in an Australian diner, where waitresses Daisy, Cindy and Tina work. However, one morning Tina doesn’t clock on, and the two friends realise something isn’t right. They call in the help of local detectives, Sam and Jack, who solve a murder-mystery,” she said. Ms Davies-Harrison, 19, said the theatre group was created amidst the coronavirus pandemic, which gave young people a chance to develop new skills and confidence. “In mid-2020 I decided to create a youth theatre group in Ararat and was immediately blown away by the support the community showed,” she said. “Youth programs are very important, especially now. They not only build confidence but create a safe space where young people can escape the stress, worry and drama of school and day-today events. “It’s also a great opportunity to make new

friends, learn new skills and build another family while having a whole lot of fun.” As production started during the COVID-19 pandemic, Ms Davies-Harrison said seeing it come together would be rewarding given the effort put into the performance during lockdowns. “Throughout lockdown, we committed several hours a week running lines through Zoom. I am looking forward to rehearsing in-person at the town hall,” she said. “For many of our members, this will be their first-time being part of a production. “Though we’re deep in rehearsals, we’re always on the lookout for new members and behind the scenes assistance. “I’m hoping our productions will become an annual event for several years to come. “I am beyond excited to finally bring this show to life.” Ararat Rural City Council mayor Jo Armstrong said the group’s enthusiasm and grit was inspiring. “I think it’s wonderful that Ararat now has a dedicated group for the youth in our community to develop their performance skills and perform at Ararat Town Hall,” she said. “Ararat Youth Group had to wait a little longer to get back on stage and I truly hope our community will come out and support their first performance.”

SHOWCASE: Singer-songwriter Ernest Aimes will kick off a series of performances organised by Ararat Live.

Ararat Live series returns The first in a series of monthly shows kicks off the return of live music to Ararat Town Hall this month. Not-for-profit group Ararat Live will host Melbourne singer-songwriter Ernest Aines in the first of eight concerts this year, on February 9. Aines said his music showed glimpses of Ray Lamontagne, Elliott Smith, Bon Iver, Jonny Lang and Jeff Buckley influences, delivered with an inspired and truthful earnestness.

He said his new single ‘So far’, taken from a debut album set to be released this year, was an American country-style tune about ‘trying to reach a point in life that is satisfying, being determined and changing attitude’. Supporting act and musician Glen Wee will perform at 8pm. Organisers said COVID-19 protocols would be enforced and proof of vaccination was required for entry to the town hall.

Tempers simmer over speed limits T

he deteriorating condition of many country Victorian roads and the issues it generates continues to fuel passionate political debate.

The State Government and Opposition are at loggerheads over a management approach to the issue. Nationals leader Peter Walsh and Member for Lowan Emma Kealy have been particularly scathing in their criticism. At the core of debate are proposals to reduce speed limits on targeted regional arterial roads as part of a statewide road-network assessment. The Coalition has claimed the government has used speed-limit reductions in mitigating road dangers to veil a failure to maintain and repair roads. It has also argued that funding shortfalls to maintain roads are the result of broad financial mismanagement. Ms Kealy said ‘cost blowouts from mismanagement of city projects would go a long way to fixing roads’. “Reducing speed limits doesn’t fill potholes, doesn’t fill cracks and certainly doesn’t stop roads completely falling apart; it just means the government has to do less,” she said. “This is a lazy and arrogant de-

cision by the government, which demands cars be roadworthy but does nothing to ensure roads are carworthy.” The government, meanwhile, has responded by accusing the Coalition of using the issue for ‘cheap political point-scoring’.

Case by case

A ‘government spokesperson’, from Labor’s media team and responding to the Coalition position, said there were ‘no plans for blanket 80kmh speed reductions on arterial country roads’. “Local roads change at the request of the local council, and any speed limit changes will continue to be assessed on a case by case basis,” they said. “Once again, this is cheap political point-scoring by the Victorian Liberal and National parties on the important issue of reducing the number of lives lost on our roads. “A bipartisan parliamentary inquiry into the road toll recommended the speed limit on all rural and regional roads undergo a review – including support from a Liberal member and the Transport Matters Party.” Ms Kealy: “Labor cut the road-maintenance budget by 25 percent last year and now, because of crumbling roads and potholes, plans to drop speed

limits on country roads to 80kmh. It’s not rocket science: fix country roads, and you will save country lives,” she said. “What makes this decision even harder to take is at the same time as maintenance funds are cut to just $617-million, we are seeing $52-billion being spent on four city-based transport projects. “Even more infuriating is the $6-billion in cost over-runs on West Gate Tunnel and Melbourne Metro projects.” The State Government’s position was that speed-limit reviews considered factors including types of road users, the surrounding road environment, crash risk and history, council recommendation, community sentiment and traffic volume to ensure set speed limits are appropriate. It also claimed it had crews assessing road-network safety and conditions daily and providing ‘an unprecedented’ program of road upgrades and maintenance ‘making thousands of kilometres of Victorian roads safer and more reliable’. But Ms Kealy remained unconvinced, adding the government announced it supported moves to reduce speed limits on some rural roads from recommendations from a parliamentary committee that had a Labor majority.

INSPIRED: Murtoa artist Linda Gallus is showcasing her talent at The Hive gallery in Ocean Grove this month. ‘The Stick Shed’, right, will feature in the exhibition.

Re-imagining the Wimmera Murtoa artist Linda Gallus has a fascination with the natural landscapes and historical buildings of country Victoria. Her work will feature in an exhibition at The Hive gallery in Ocean Grove this month. Her painting ‘The Stick Shed’ – Murtoa’s iconic Second World War era emergency grain storage shed – will be a prominent work in the exhibition. Gallus said her next project ‘Finding the Wimmera’ was scheduled at Mildura Arts Centre in April 2023, and would be based on work completed during her artist residency at Rainbow in April this year. Gallus plans to re-imagine the iconic landscapes found in the late Sir Sidney Nolan’s ‘Wimmera’ series paintings during her time in Rainbow.

Gallus said rural Victoria held endless inspiration for her. “I like to record pieces of our history in glimpses and snippets, focusing on shapes, colours and perspective,” she said. This perspective is evident in Gallus’ work ‘Sentinels’ depicting a field of chimneys left behind from demolished homes. Gallus described how this ‘village’ of chimneys were ‘guardians of the past’. “They stand there proud and strong, forever holding onto the story of their humans,” she said. Gallus said when she first set eyes on the Stick Shed in Murtoa she was ‘blown away’ by the enormity of the timber poles and the length of the building. “It is cathedral-like,” she said. – Michael Scalzo

Stepping in to coach

orsham entrepreneur Paul Atherton has launched a new venture designed to provide people with skills, knowledge and thinking to achieve greater confidence and personal success.

Mr Atherton, former West Vic Business chair and former owner-operator of Athletes Foot Horsham, has launched Paul Atherton The Powerful Life. His coaching business follows a Thinking Into Results program led by Proctor Gallagher Institute and is based on a concept that ‘power can be defined as the ability to act or produce an effect’. “In my role as West Vic Business chair I had come across the statistic that 50 percent of rural business owners were aged 50 or older,” he said. “And of these it was estimated that 80 percent had no idea about how they were going to successfully exit the business. “My business was for sale but I didn’t know what was I going to do after selling. I wish I could say that ‘retirement’ was possible but it didn’t really appeal. “I had long believed that people earning significantly more were not working significantly harder. “I concluded they must think differently and in turn behave differently. “I began to explore how the most successful people think. This led me to a certified coach who specialised in executive coaching. “After an initial chat I committed to world-renowned Thinking Into Results training led by the Proctor Gallagher

Photography at Natimuk Show The Weekly Advertiser, in partnership with Natimuk Agricultural and Pastoral Society, will present a series of weekly stories that explore some of the history of Natimuk Show. The 130th Natimuk Show will be part of combined 150th Back to Natimuk celebrations on March 26. This week Leeanne McCredden provides insight into the evolution of the show’s photography section.

Paul Atherton

The photography section has been part of Natimuk Agriculture Show for nearly all of its 130 years. The McCredden family has been involved with this section since Harold McCredden was asked to assist at the age of 15 or 16, in 1945-46, by previous chief photography steward Charlie Weidner. Harold had always had an interest in photography, as did his father Allan who was known to always carry his Box Brownie camera with him. Harold soon after took on the role of chief steward for photography, continuing until he was in his early 80s when he felt he was getting to old and slow. It was then that he graciously handed the reins over to his son James and daughters Leanne and Vicki, who had for many years assisted him. Leanne and Vicki started helping their father from the age of about 12 until moving to Melbourne for further study and work, only to recommence their involvement intermittently after a 10-year break. It was during this period that James stepped in to assist his fa-

Institute. Halfway through the training I had an epiphany. I didn’t really want to be the chief executive I originally thought was my future. “What I truly desired was to help other people achieve the success they always wanted. So I undertook further training to become a consultant.” Mr Atherton’s programs run for a minimum of 12 weeks, feature three coaching levels and can adapt to suit individual or group needs. He said coaching could occur in person or via Zoom and his website www. thepowerfullife.com.au provided further details. He said further information was also available on Proctor Gallagher Institute website proctorgallagherinstitute.com. “My role is to guide and lead participants through this innovative success program,” Mr Atherton said. “I always start with a free half-hour consultation to ensure the program is right for the person.” Mr Atherton said people could call him on 0429 136 147 or email thepower fullyfe@gmail.com.

IN THE FAMILY: Vicki McCredden, holding a Box Brownie camera, and James McCredden, presenting a digital image of Harold McCredden on his mobile phone, provide a ‘snapshot’ of how technology has changed photography. ther before stepping up to become chief steward in about 2011. It was also during this period that the show rescheduled to March from August, no longer falling during school holidays. James, Leanne and Vicki have continued the family involvement with the Natimuk Show in many and varied roles, while James and Leanne continue providing steward duties in the photography section today. The medium has changed dramatically over the years, starting with many black and white photographs through to slides in

the 1960s and 1970s, with these gradually disappearing to be replaced by more modern versions and more currently with digitised images now becoming the norm. While there have been many wonderful sponsors and judges over the years, the most prominent sponsor was Brian Murray Studios. We have also been fortunate to have many talented local photographers who have judged and encouraged photographers of all ages. We are looking forward to presenting the Natimuk photography section in a new format and reconnecting with many.

‘Authenticity’ key to event BY MICHAEL SCALZO

usician Neil Murray lives in an off-grid cabin beside Lake Bolac, a large volcanic freshwater lake south of Ararat and the Grampians.

Murray is best known for his music in Warumpi Band and his song, ‘My Island Home’, re-recorded by Christine Anu and played at the 2000 Sydney Olympic Closing Ceremony. He grew up beside Lake Bolac and after two decades spent mostly in the Northern Territory, settled back in western Victoria. Since his return to Lake Bolac and Tjapwurrung country, Murray said he had been exploring his sense of belonging. “I decided to come back to investigate the idea,” he said. “In 1995 I got a little cottage on the edge of town in Lake Bolac and I still have a bit of a base for myself here.” Murray helped foster the contemporary concept for Lake Bolac Eel Festival, a small, bi-annual festival on the lake foreshore, that started in 2005. The festival builds on pre-colonial indigenous gatherings and ceremonies that took place for an annual autumn eel migration through Lake Bolac and Salt Creek. Murray said the festival achieved ‘real authenticity’ through a recognition of history. “This recognition grounds it and really builds on its history,” he said. “It was a gathering place for up to 1000 indigenous people when the lake overflowed and they set their traps down at the outlet. “Their celebrations sustained large gatherings of people, so the lake was begging to have something like that again. “For contemporary events to build on that history is important for mainstream Australia to accept and recognise. “The Lake Bolac Eel Festival is embedded in this history unlike other festivals. “Anything that has connection to

RECOGNITION: Neil Murray returned to western Victoria to explore his sense of belonging and connection to the region. history and that honours those pre-colonial traditions again – although is a teaspoon in terms of cultural loss – is still positive though.” Murray highlighted Bunya festival on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, which celebrates the annual harvest of edible cones from bunya trees, as another Australian festival trying to build contemporary celebrations upon indigenous traditions. “The prime movers of that festival have made their way to Lake Bolac before and spoken to everyone about what they were doing up in Queensland,” he said. “They have integrated indigenous culture into the mainstream there and it has been really embraced.” As a musician performing for four decades, Murray said there had been ‘tremendous’ inroads made in recognising and bringing indigenous art and culture to mainstream Australia. “The National Indigenous Televi-

sion, NITV, is a great example, so is modern indigenous music and film,” he said. “So many incredible things you would never have thought of in previous decades are shaping greater widespread acceptance, inclusion and respect for indigenous cultural heritage sites developing.”

New audience

Lake Bolac Eel Festival returns in March 2022 after a COVID-19 interruption and Murray hopes the event will continue to attract new people each time. “There is a core group of festival supporters, but new audiences are attracted every year,” he said. “I think 300 pre-sale tickets have been sold so far for this year. “The festival has hosted almost 1000 people before, it is a great gathering for the lake. “It is a shame COVID-19 threw a spanner in the works, but everyone has been affected by that.

Wimmera Roadways

“Given what everyone has gone through, this year there will be some hope and relief for people, something for everyone to enjoy.” Murray said the Wimmera, southern Mallee and Gariwerd regions offered ample opportunity for other celebrations and festivals to foster a similar recognition of history. “Horsham’s Alice Sky is making some brilliant music in the region,” he said. “Horseshoe Bend, on the Wimmera River in Dimboola, is somewhere that would be great for something like the eel festival. There is so much culture and heritage in that part of the Wimmera. “It always depends on generating some indigenous involvement and it is even better if they can drive it. “I hope there is an effort to include mainstream Australia and non-indigenous people as well in these celebrations. There is ample opportunity to do something like that on the river.”

Music and arts festival returns An Eastern Grampians music and arts festival will return in March after a twoyear COVID-19-induced hiatus. Lake Bolac Eel Festival, at Lake Bolac foreshore on March 25 and 26, will host songwriter Neil Murray, regional musicians and performers, workshops, markets and displays. Murray, from Victoria’s western district was a founding member of Warumpi Band, known for songs Blackfella Whitefella and Fitzroy Crossing. The bands song ‘My Island Home’ was awarded Australian Performing Rights Association’s 1995 song of the year. Music lovers will also experience performances from Benny Walker, Liam Gerner, Phil and Trudy Edgeley, Sarah Carroll and Shannon Bourne, Gypsy Smash, Jim Williams and Glynn Coulson. The festival will also feature an art auction, Tibetan dinner and Warrnambool professor John Sherwood as guest speaker during a festival forum. Sherwood is an honouree associate professor at the School of Life and Environmental Sciences at Deakin University. His indigenous archaeological research in Warrnambool, suggesting there might have been human activity in Australia 120,000 years ago, was published by Royal Society of Victoria in 2019. Festival chair Rachel Taylor said the ‘little festival with the big heart’, that recognised indigenous gatherings and ceremonies for an annual autumn eel migration in the area, was returning with the theme ‘Caring for Country and Culture’. “Following the partial destruction of the ancient eel stone formation last year in Lake Bolac, which is still subject to investigation, it’s important we focus as a community on caring for country and culture, which the festival celebrates and commemorates,” she said. Eastern Maar Aboriginal Corporation has registered the 176-metre eel stone formation at Lake Bolac as Kooyang Stone Arrangement. Research suggests inhabitants of the Lake Bolac area created the structure more than 1500 years ago. COVID-19 vaccination policies apply to all attendees and tickets purchased for the postponed 2020 festival will be accepted.

“I give my heartfelt thanks to all of the Australia Day Award recipients for their accomplishments; it is absolutely staggering to learn what you have achieved in the second year of a pandemic nonetheless, and our shire is so much the richer for having people who give their all for the betterment of others.” The council presented awards based on shire wards. Citizen-of-the-year awards went to Stawell Senior Citizens club volunteers Raie Gale and June Raburn, Stawell South and central wards, and St Arnaud Resource Centre volunteer Russell Steel, Kara Kara Ward.

Recognition for young leader A community-minded Ararat youth celebrated for her pursuit to elevate the voices of young people has received Australia Day recognition. Jaylen Stephens, 15, from Ararat’s Marian College, was recognised as Young Citizen of the Year by Ararat Rural Council om Australia Day, for her part in the creation of the new Ararat Youth Group which gives participants an opportunity to engage with council. Miss Stephens said her participation in the Western Bulldogs Youth Leadership Program was the start she needed to find her voice. “It is so important for teenagers, especially, to have a voice in the community, and have a say on things we can change for the better,” she said. “We hope it is something that does continue to grow as more young people join.” Miss Stephens said lessons learnt during the Bulldogs leadership program were skills crucial for young people to have growing up in a tight-knit community. “Every week we discussed different topics from mental health, gambling, gender equality and multicultural understanding,” she said. Miss Stephens was also Ararat’s Boldly Bulldog Participant of the Year in 2021 for her time in the program. “When I received the email saying I was to be Young Citizen of the Year, it was just so cool. I had no idea someone would nominate me. I am very thankful for it,” she said.

Dr Derek Pope and Jan Pope were joint recipients of Ararat Citizen of the Year. Dr Pope was recognised for his contribution to community health during his 36-year career as a GP, while Mrs Pope was recognised for her volunteer work and leadership in Ararat’s creative community.

Unleashed...

hile Australian ute enthusiasts eagerly await the unveiling of the Raptor variant of the new-generation Ford Ranger, the Blue Oval has unleashed a hardcore version of its Jeep Wrangler-rivalling Bronco off-roader, replete with a stonking 294kW twin-turbo 3.0-litre V6 engine.

The purposefully doorless Bronco Raptor is claimed to be the world’s first Ultra4 Racing-inspired 4x4 that’s as adept at scaling desert dunes at breakneck speeds as extreme rock crawling. Ford Performance chief engineer Carl Widmann said the Bronco Raptor

was ‘our ultimate vehicle for hardcore off-road enthusiasts who demand more’. “Like the Ultra4 desert race trucks, the ‘Raptor of SUVs’ is equipped with competition-level off-road technology and hardware,” he said. This includes a fully boxed, highstrength steel frame with shock towers that facilitate increased wheel travel, as well as heavy-duty bash plates and skid plates. Courtesy of a B-pillar crossbar and C-pillar reinforcement, the Raptor’s body is 50 percent more rigid than that of a standard Bronco. The high-performance off-road stability suspension 4.0 was co-devel-

oped with FOX and Ford Performance. The adaptive system delivers up to 60 percent more wheel travel than before, while the competition-level axles increase track width by 218mm. Ground clearance is a claimed 333mm. Meanwhile, the newcomer’s twinturbocharged 3.0-litre V6 engine delivers 294kW and 563Nm of torque. The powerplant, which makes the Raptor the most powerful road-legal Bronco ever, features uprated intercooler and air-induction systems to compensate for higher ambient desert temperatures. It is mated with a beefed-up version of Ford’s 10-speed automatic transmission.

Ford’s Bronco gets Raptor treatment

To add to the Raptor’s sense of theatre, a dual exhaust system with active valve technology produces no fewer than four selectable exhaust notes including normal, sport, quiet and Baja. The Bronco Raptor makes use of Ford’s GOAT – Goes Over Any type of Terrain – management system, which offers seven selectable modes, including a uniquely tuned Baja mode and a tow-haul mode that allows for a maximum tow rating of 2041kg. The off-roader’s interior is no less purpose-built as its hardcore exterior treatment. The cabin features inter alia, a 12.0-inch digital instrument cluster and similarly sized SYNC4 touch-

screen infotainment array, as well as a 360-degree camera system. Ford design manager Ryan Olsson said the Bronco Raptor interior was designed ‘around what we know hardcore off-road racers want’. “From the all-new performance view on the cluster and unique steering wheel with paddle shifters and fingertip access to Raptor-specific controls, to its high-bolster front seats, the Bronco Raptor leaves the factory ready for the starting line,” he said. The extended Ford Bronco range remains exclusive to the North American market. – Mike Fourie

New Peugeot SUV variant lands

eugeot Australia has introduced a new variant to its MY22 5008 range in place of the outgoing 5008 GT petrol.

The GT Sport is priced from $61,940, plus on-road costs. The French importer has also released range-wide pricing increases, with specification upgrades announced for 2008, 3008 and 5008 crossover and SUV models, Peugeot Export light commercial vans and the 508 Fastback and Sportswagon line-up. Peugeot Australia managing director Kate Gillis said since launching the GT Sport variant across the 2008 and 3008 SUV ranges earlier this year, the company had seen an overwhelmingly positive reception and increased demand for the highly specified, rangetopping variant. “Introducing the GT Sport variant to the 5008 SUV range will provide customers with the luxury features and distinctive style that has become so popular among our discerning buyers with the practicality and space of a seven-seat vehicle,” she said. Powered by a 133kW-250Nm 1.6-litre turbocharged petrol engine with eight-speed automatic transmission, the GT Sport derivative features Black Pack styling cues, 19-inch Washington alloy wheels, Nappa leather-appointed upholstery with heated front

MEETING DEMAND: Peugeot has increased pricing across its range and introduced a new 5008 GT Sport. seats and a panoramic sunroof. The seven-seat model is further equipped with a Focal premium audio system, lime wood dash and door-card garnishes, a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel, a 10-inch touchscreen infotainment array with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, adaptive cruise control with ‘Stop & Go’ and keyless entry with push-button start. The 5008 SUV range continues to be topped by the GT Diesel, now priced from $62,990 plus on-road costs,

which is an increase of $3000 on its recommended list price for 2021. At the smaller end of Peugeot’s SUV range, price increases are between $1750 and $4300 for the 2008. The range begins with the Allure automatic, now from $36,740 plus on-road costs, and is topped by the GT Sport, from $48,290 plus on-road costs, which receives a standard panoramic sunroof. Similar incremental increases are observed across the mid-size 3008

SUV range, with price increases of up to $4850. The 3008 line-up begins with the Allure automatic, from $47,240 plus on-road costs, and tops out with the recently released GT Sport PHEV AWD, which is unchanged at $79,990 plus on-road costs. Like the 2008, the GT Sport variant has gained a panoramic sunroof. Prices of the 508 Fastback and Sportswagon have been hiked by up to $2450. The 508 GT Fastback is

priced from $59,840 plus on-road costs and the GT Sportswagon begins at $61,940 plus on-road costs. The range-topping GT Fastback PHEV’s price remains unchanged at $76,990 plus on-road costs. The recently updated MY22 Peugeot Expert – announced in October – has undergone price increases of between $1350 and $2450. The only LCV variant unaffected by the sudden price rise is the Expert Short Sport, which remains priced at $49,990 plus on-road costs. Citing the ongoing microprocessor shortage, Peugeot has removed side airbags and adaptive cruise control from the Expert range, which is now offered with standard cruise control instead. “We continuously endeavour to provide our customers with the best possible Peugeot offering, which includes carefully considering all options with regards to local market pricing adjustments,” Ms Gillis said. “There has been an increase in production costs, which has resulted in an increase to the MY22 pricing. “There has been a four to five percent increase in MLP across the Peugeot passenger, SUV and LCV range from MY21 to MY22 models.” The revised MY22 Peugeot range is available now. – Matt Brogan

Land Rover expands PHEV line-up

and Rover Australia has expanded its PHEV line-up with the recent introduction of a P300e derivative of the Range Rover Evoque.

The P300e can operate in three modes. In Hybrid mode, the operating strategy for the petrol engine and electric motor is dynamically adapted to driving conditions and the high voltage battery’s charge level, plus a predictive energy optimisation function can integrate route and GPS data

to maximise efficiency and comfort to destinations set on the satnav. EV, electric vehicle mode, in turn, enables the Evoque P300e PHEV to run solely on the electric motor using the energy stored in the battery, while SAVE mode prioritises the combustion engine as its main power source

The firm says it will bring the full global line-up of Range Rover PHEVs, plus the Defender 110 PHEV, to the market this year. The Evoque P300e PHEV joins the existing Range Rover Sport P400e PHEV and will soon be followed by the all-new Range Rover PHEV, available for customer orders now, Range Rover Velar PHEV, from the second quarter, and Defender 110 PHEV, quater three. The all-wheel-drive newcomer uses a 147kW 1.5-litre three-cylinder Ingenium petrol engine mated with an eight-speed automatic transmission, which works in combination with an 80kW electric rear-axle-drive motor that is propelled by a 15kWh lithiumion battery. The P300e is said to emit 43g-km of CO2 and have an all-electric range from full charge of 62kms. Land Rover claims fuel economy of 2.0L-100km and a 6.4-second 0-100kmh time. What’s more, the Evoque PHEV can achieve 0-80 percent charge in 30 minutes by using 32kW DC public charging or 84 minutes with a 7kW AC wall box.

NEW RELEASE: Land Rover Australia has introduced a P300e derivative of the Range Rover Evoque.

aharum Football Netball Club leaders are taking a ‘simple’ approach to the 2022 Horsham District league season. Eager to play a full season of competition, club officials believe their members are hungry for a successful year. President Bianca Mibus said the interruptions to sport last season reiterated the importance of club unity moving forward. “We have always been a strong, family-orientated club and last year drilled that fact home to everyone,” she said. “The early finish to the season and lack of reward for effort last year hurt. “Everyone is keen to go again in 2022 and put their best foot forward.” Miss Mibus spoke highly of the club’s senior coaches. “We are excited to welcome back Glenn Doyle to the club as senior coach,” she said. “He has a wealth of knowledge and has already created a lot of buzz. “He was away from the club for a while, but he was a good player and good footy person. “His family is joining him at Laharum too, his daughter is playing and so are his two boys.” Caitlin Story and Erin Mellington

have re-signed to co-coach the senior netball side again in 2022. “Along with Caitlin and Erin we have retained our really strong A Grade side,” Miss Mibus said. The Demons, who won the last district league A Grade flag on offer in 2019, claimed the minor premiership in 2021 after an undefeated season. “While it was such a disappointing end to last year with the side being so dominant, we are keen to go again in 2022 and approach it all with no expectations,” Miss Mibus said. Playing coach Mellington said hopefully a finals series in 2022 would allow the team to finish off the season properly. “It felt like we put in all this hard work and effort for no result,” she said. “We don’t play to be minor premiers.” Despite the disappointment, she said the side would have the same winning formula in 2022. “We have been playing together for a long time, working on things and adding people as time has gone by,” she said. “We are all playing for the same reason and working towards the same goals. “Importantly, we are all really good friends and have lots of fun together.” Incoming senior football coach

“We take pride in our family, our football and netball. We put in a lot of effort nurturing young players and our focus is on the longevity of the club – everything we do is for the younger generations coming through”

Doyle echoed Miss Mibus’s sentiment on the disappointment of last year. “COVID-19 has been really tough on the club,” he said. “There was a real stretching of resources and players. So the aim this year is to lay the groundwork for how we want to play and move forward from there.” Doyle said the club’s junior talent would drive the team’s direction. “We have some talent stepping up this year into the senior side. A bunch of exciting players from the under17s will be a big part of the team this year,” he said. “They will have an opportunity to re-establish how they want the team to be in the future. “I won’t be a dictatorial coach. I want them to drive us forward. “Our senior guys will set the standard, but the younger players will have the chance to put their mark on

the club going forward. We will look to possess the ball, use our foot skills and build from there. “Our recruiting is not yet finished though. “We are hopeful and quietly confident people will be coming on board before we get underway.” With all clubs hoping they have seen the last of COVID-19 sporting interruptions, Miss Mibus was keen to emphasise Laharum’s 2022 attitude. “We take pride in our family, our

football and netball,” she said. “We put in a lot of effort nurturing young players and our focus is on the longevity of the club – everything we do is for the younger generations coming through. “We just want a full season. We want everyone in the district to field full teams and we are happy to help make that happen. “The main thing is supporting our clubs and getting kids playing sport. It has been a tough few years.”

Preparing solid foundations L

BY MICHAEL SCALZO

eaders at Taylors Lake Football and Netball Club are confident 2022 will be a year of progress and consolidation, a foundation for them to build future success. With a new president and senior netball coach, the club is hopeful a group of core young players coming through the ranks will help establish a strong culture for the years ahead. Incoming president Travis Mackley said 2022 was all about being more competitive. “For us, it is about being a harder club to beat. At the moment, we are trying to rebuild, nurture our young talent and recruit well,” he said. “While we were cellar dwellers for a while, we think we can turn that around with a good, core group of junior players coming through.” With the club’s senior netball side stepping back into A Grade, recently appointed senior coach Tammy McDonald said the group had started preparing for the expected tougher competition. “We didn’t field an A Grade side last year, which we felt was a real opportunity for the team to capture that essential love of netball in a lower grade without A Grade losses every

PROGRESS: Incoming Taylors Lake Football and Netball Club president Travis Mackley is pushing to ‘rebuild, nurture young talent and recruit well’ for the 2022 season. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER week,” she said. “Our confidence has improved and now that same side, hopefully with the addition of some B Grade players from other clubs looking to help our rebuild, can step back into top tier competition. “Hopefully we can get some success, but wins are not every part of that.

“Our junior program is quite successful and some are coming into the senior ranks, but we are always on the lookout for new players to come along.” Lee Marshall will return as coach of the senior football team, while Tom Clugston will join him as playing as-

sistant coach, joining from Dimboola Football Netball Club. Marshall said the group was keen to have a full year of football without any COVID-19 interruptions. “Last year we didn’t know whether we were coming or going at times, there were no crowds, no finals – we

The mighty

were a lot more competitive in games than we have been before, so hopefully we can build on that momentum,” he said. “Our young players who have come up from the junior program are in their early 20s and have been here for a number of years now. But we are really pushing to have an under-17s side again because every club needs a solid junior side in that age group.” With a core group of young players, Marshall said the focus would be on establishing defensive structures and consistent two-way running, a trait he said many young sides took time to master. “We have brought a few players in to strengthen our defence, which is where we seemed to fall away at times last year,” he said. “We couldn’t stem the flow of backto-back goals. Sometimes one or two forwards would get a hold of the backline and take the game away from us. Having options to run through the backline will help us there too. “Two-way running will be crucial for us. We want to get that message to our group early because power-sides run both ways as second nature. “Our overall aim will be to bridge that gap between us and the bigger clubs and get ourselves heading in the right direction in 2022.”

Catch-up weekend G

BY ONE SHORT

rampians Cricket Association games on Saturday included a couple of lost opportunities with both Chalambar and Pomonal missing chances to upset more fancied opponents.

Chalambar fell short in a match against Youth Club and Pomonal missed out on upsetting SwiftsGreat Western. Turf wickets at Ararat and Stawell were underprepared due to rain during the week, which led to conditions favoring the bowlers. At Ararat’s Alexandra Oval, Chalambar elected to bat and posted 107 off just 31.3 overs, with the best of the Clubbers’ bowlers Nic Baird 5-17 and Harvey Evans 4-32. The Clubbers’ turn at the crease saw them slump to 9-61 before an unfinished 10th wicket stand of 52 between Matt Healy, 45 not out, and Clinton Slorach, 25 not out, saw them home. Guddie Singh captured 4-15 It was a similar story at Stawell’s Central Park, where Pomonal bowlers again did the job for their team by dismissing the Combine for a low 104. But its batsmen fell short on 9-86.

Fortunately for the Combine some of their frontline bowlers returned – Jamie Bach capturing 2-16 and Jay Moody 2-14. Luckily for the Tigers they remain in the four because challenger Halls Gap fell in a 140-run demolition to the Buangor-Tatyoon Hawks. Batting first on the small Halls Gap oval, the Hawks amassed 8-195 thanks mainly to Jacob Bates’ 83, then blitzed the Gappers for just 56. Will Chamings, Michael Harricks and Callum Baker took three wickets each. The bright spot for the Gappers was young Toby Ripper taking 3-26 with his spinners. The association had left the coming weekend free to allow for any COVID-related lockdowns to be rescheduled to this date. This means the only games this weekend will be Halls Gap against Pomonal in A Grade and Rhymney-Moyston playing Navarre in B Grade. The A Grade match between the Gappers and the Tigers is of vital importance to both sides, because they are both vying for that fourth spot on the ladder. The result will probably be decided by the bowlers because

batsmen hitting winning scores are rare. In other news, Swifts-Great Western has organised a 30-year reunion of a 1991-92 premiership team for February 19. Organisers have included all players from the 1985 to 1995 era and they will meet for lunch under the number-one grandstand at 12.30pm before the Youth Club match. Stawell Great Western secretary Marc Brilliant said any player from that era who had not received an invitation and would like to attend could contact the club for catering purposes. Club president, Nick Clough, who played in the 1991-92 team, said the event was a great way for the club to keep in touch with past players and vice-versa. This week: Halls Gap v Pomonal. Last week: Youth Club 9-113 (M. Healy 45no, C. Slorach 25no, N. Baird 22; G. Singe 4-15) d Chalambar 107 (S. Pilgrim 29, R. Bertram 27; N. Baird 5-17, H. Evans 4-32). Ladder: Buangor-Tatyoon 51 points, 1.95 percent; SwiftsGreat Western 42, 2.07; Youth Club 30, 1.18; Pomonal 18, 0.57; Chalambar 12, 0.57; Halls Gap 12, 0.50.

ON THE COURTS: Horsham Squash Club senior members, from left, John O’Dwyer, Kevin McDonald, Launa Schilling and Daryl Ferguson are getting in practice for a new squash season. The club will run junior and senior competitions, with juniors starting on February 15 and seniors on February 16. There are various levels and registrations will close on February 6.

Calling all football umpires AFL Wimmera Mallee umpires kicked off training for 2022 on Monday at Horsham City Oval. AFL Victoria’s Umpire Coach of the Year Cameron Pickering and a host of other experienced coaches and mentors led the session. Mr Pickering said field, boundary and goal umpires were all required for the 2022 season.

“If you’ve retired from playing or are a junior with a love of football, come and join in one of the best kept secrets in football – umpiring,” he said. Training starts at 6pm on Mondays. Potential recruits are encouraged to follow AFL Wimmera Mallee Umpires on Facebook for updates or call Mr Pickering on 0428 922 589 for further information.

Pigeons are shaping up H

omers will attempt to take winning momentum into the last of Horsham Cricket Association T20 games this weekend and announce itself as legitimate premiership contenders.

The Pigeons, fresh from a resounding victory over Rupanyup-Minyip, meet Jung Tigers at Horsham’s Sunnyside Oval in what looms as a pre-finals test. Homers are fostering a newlook group of players and none were more influential last week than opener Luke Deutscher who clipped 79 from 48 balls at Minyip. Deutscher’s knock, which included nine fours and four sixes, was the stand-out batting effort as the visitors made 2-131 in 16 overs to win the contest. Chaminda Gamage also made 27 during the Homers innings. Earlier, Rupanyup-Minyip had done well to post 5-130 with Jamie Byrne making 44 and Daniel Schaper an unbeaten 33. Homers now meet a Jung Tigers side coming off a bye in a game that starts at 4pm. The Tigers are searching for winning form, having lost their last two games.

Wednesday, February 2, 2022

Rupanyup-Minyip, meanwhile, is desperate for consistency and will hope to return to the winners’ list against West Wimmera, on Saturday. The Blue Panthers just need to click as a team to be a dangerous week-to-week force and despite being at Minyip again will find West Wimmera hard to beat. West Wimmera made its way to 9-95 in its 20 overs last week and was still in the game against top team Noradjuha-Toolondo until the final over.

James Philip for West Wimmera and Justtin Combe, Noradjuha-Toolondo, top-scored for their respective teams with 23 each in a low-scoring affair and bowlers shared the spoils. The Bullants have a bye this week. Four one-day rounds after this weekend will take the competition to the finals, opening the door for a return of a need for teams to have a greater depth in cricketing strategy. This week: Rupanyup-Minyip v

West Wimmera at Minyip, Homers v Jung Tigers, Noradjuha-Toolondo Bullants, bye. Last week: Noradjuha-Toolondo Bullants 7-97 d West Wimmera 9-95, Homers 2-131 (L. Deutscher 79, C. Gamage 27no) d Rupanyup-Minyip 5-130 (J. Byrne 44, D. Schaper 33no), Ladder: Noradjuha-Toolondo Bullants 60 points, 1.57 percent; Homers 36, 1.05; Jung Tigers 36, 0.98; Rupanyup-Minyip 27, 0.66; West Wimmera 21, 0.88.

Sport Caris joins Vixens Former Horsham Saints netballer and current AFLW Melbourne Demons player Maggie Caris has joined a Melbourne Vixens netball squad after her selection in an Australian under-19s team. Caris, 19, has officially signed on as a Melbourne Vixens squad member and training partner for the 2022 season. Caris made her debut for Melbourne AFLW side earlier this year after her selection with pick 17 in a 2020 draft. She was selected for the 2021-22 Australian Under 19s netball squad. Caris said she felt both sports played ‘hand-inhand’ and her journey from Horsham Saints to Victorian Netball League ‘shaped her approach and understanding of elite sport’. “I’ve played netball for a long time, so I feel that helped me in the high-performance areas to transition across to football as well,” she said. Caris said to be named as a Vixens training partner was an honour. “It’s still crazy to sort of think about, to be named among them. I’m really proud of it. It’s going to be lots of hard work, I’m very honoured,” she said. “I would love to play for Australia one day, but I feel like that is every little girl’s dream. “Everyone sees them on TV and says, ‘wow they’re just such amazing athletes’. To be in the pathway, it’s a really special thing to be a part of. I feel like it kind of shows you that there is a way to get there. “I think I’m just going to be working away at what I can do and what things I can control to make myself the best player and person possible.” Netball Victoria’s Vixens performance and pathways general manager Rebekah Webster said she was ‘excited about what is to come’ for Caris, who joins returning squad member Gabby Coffey for the 2022 season.

Down to the wire BY MICHAEL SCALZO

ompetition resumed for Wimmera tennis clubs at the weekend after a summer break, with teams meeting for their first matches of 2022 in Central Wimmera Tennis Association.

Pennant ladder-leader Horsham Lawn held off St Michaels in the match of the round, to remain in top spot heading into round nine. In a close struggle where each side won six sets, Horsham Lawn took the win by six games overall, beating St Michaels 6-73 to 6-67. Kalkee enjoyed a win over

Drung South Purple 1-43 to 1195 to claim second place on the pennant ladder from St Michaels. Drung South Orange was not good enough to climb out of last place with a loss to Central Park, 5-69 to 7-86. Association president Jeremy Quast said he knew the match between Horsham Lawn and St Michaels was always going to be close. “It could have gone either way really,” he said. “St Michaels are always quite strong and the hard courts at St Michaels are something very different for Horsham Lawn. “Central Park played great and got its first win of the season

over Drung South Orange. It was an impressive showing by Central Park’s men’s doubles teams who were strong all day.” In a ‘great’ first week back, Mr Quast said mid-season matches were crucial for clubs, given the switch to a knockout final series this season. “There are no second chances this year, so it is crucial to get wins now given the importance of home finals,” he said. “Where clubs finish on the ladder is so critical this year. “Teams can’t settle heading into finals and they will need to push to the last round for the best shot.”

Tough road for Hornets BY MICHAEL SCALZO

orsham Hornets basketball teams are set to start their finals campaigns on Saturday after playing their final home-and-away games of the season at the weekend.

The Country Basketball League results might be bittersweet, however. Losses for both teams against Portland Chargers saw them finish fourth on the ladder and head into finals with a tougher path to the grand final match than they hoped. The men’s team suffered a three-point loss to second-placed Portland Coasters at Horsham on Saturday night, going down 8285. In the earlier timeslot, the women’s team got within touching distance of third-placed Portland, before losing 64-72. In their second game of the weekend, the Lady Hornets showed up struggling Surfcoast Chargers on Sunday in Horsham, 96-33, to secure their finals spot. The results leave the men and women with similar grand final routes. Both teams finished the season in fourth place on the ladder and must play the minor premiers, away from home, in knockout semi-finals to proceed to grand finals – a daunting challenge for either side. The women will meet Warrnambool Mermaids, who finished the season with an 8-2 win-loss record, in Warrnambool on Saturday. The men must travel to Colac to take on top-spot Colac Kookas, which finished the season with only one loss after 10 games. Men’s coach Scott Benbow said for 32 minutes the Hornets looked ‘amazing’, but for eight minutes, the Coasters were even better.

BATTLE ON: Horsham Hornets’ Olivia Jones, above, tries to pass around Portland’s Heidi Jones, and below, Hornet Sam Breuer drives around Jackson Dunlop. Both Horsham teams went down to Portland Chargers at the weekend. Pictures: PAUL CARRACHER “At one stage we were 17 points up and looking really solid. Suddenly, they hit every shot and more. They played really well, but it is heartbreaking,” he said. “We really wanted a home final because we think we are very tough to beat at home. “Losing the home advantage next week is most disappointing.” Benbow said Portland’s fullcourt press caught the Hornets out, forcing them to not look after the ball as much as they would have liked. “We didn’t expect Portland to come out in the end and play like that,” he said. “But now we say to ourselves, ‘okay, we will have to get to the grand final the hard way’”.

Sport Win at home Concongella owner-trainer Ken Taylor celebrated a home-track victory at Laidlaw Park on Australia Day when his nine-year-old gelding Kempseys Delight led from go to whoa in a feature $7000 pace. The evergreen pacer, having his 156th start, was driven hard out of the gate to claim the role of frontrunner but when in command driver Denbeigh Wade backed off the tempo through the middle stages of the 1785-metre trip. The son of Bettors Delight USA found plenty over the final 400 metres and scored by two metres in a rate of 1:58.5 for a well-deserved eighth career victory. Balmoral horsewoman Janet Exell also enjoyed Australia Day success at Stawell when her six-year-old son of Elsu NZ, Areyouohkay, saluted in a pace event. Driver David Murphy was content to let $1.65 favourite Rocknroll Opal – Michael Bellman – take the lead from the start and from then on Areyouohkay enjoyed a sweet trip, hard on the back of the pacemaker. With 250 metres remaining, Murphy eased the gelding off the pegs to eyeball the leader at the top of the home stretch. The nuggetty black gelding proved too strong and scored by five metres in a rate of 1:59.9. Extreme stormy weather forced the last race at Stawell to be abandoned and the theme continued at Mildura that night when the last four events were unable to be staged. Apsley owner Gary McGinty shared a winning double at Globe Derby on Saturday night with trainer and part-owner Heather Stevens when their former Kiwi pacers Maharaja and Bettor Beontoit. Concession driver Tiana McMahon piloted five-yearold gelding Maharaja to an all the way victory in an $8000, 1800m sprint contest and Wayne Hill repeated the dose later in the night with seven-year-old gelding Bettor Beontoit. Show Me The Moolah gave owner trainer Janet Exell her second winner in just five days when successful at Wedderburn on Sunday afternoon. Stand-in driver John Justice found the coveted one-one spot for the gelded son of Allawart Ray for the first two laps then timed his run down the outside to perfection – snatching victory from the $2.20 favourite Glengarriff – Jackie Barker in the shadows of the post. Exell’s home-bred squaregaiter took time to learn the caper but has become a generally consistent performer with seven wins and 13 minors on the board. Horsham part-owner Tim Nihill enjoyed a win at nice odds early last week when six-year-old gelding Messerati captured a $9000 pace at Geelong for the Maree and John Caldow stable. The son of Art Major inished strongly up the home stretch to score narrowly from Ruby Wingate – Michael Bellman in a rate of 1:54.3. Messerati is raced by the Caldow family in partnership with several ‘Ouyenites’ and has proved a wonderful bread and butter horse, with 11 wins, 22 minors and a bank of $96,500. – Tony Logan

Stawell taekwondo instructor keen to mentor youth Bendigo-born sixth-dan black-belt taekwondo instructor Dale Exon started taekwondo when he was about eight. Mr Exon, 42, said his parents encouraged him to learn martial arts to build up fitness and self-defence. “I was picked on at school, the practice built up my confidence, which was lacking,” Mr Exon said. Since then, he has travelled throughout Australia and to Korea practicing taekwondo and is running classes at Stawell Senior Citizens Hall starting this month. Mr Exon has coached for more than 14 years and competed in more than 10 state and national tournaments. He now runs DD Taekwondo and Hapkido – Stawell. He said teaching and being a mentor gave him a sense of fulfillment. “Everyone needs a clear direction in life, especially kids,” he said. “When kids see a black belt, you Wednesday, February 2, 2022

become a mentor because you are always guiding them. “We try to create a family environment within the club. We’ve had families compete and train together. They have become fitter and more confident.” Mr Exon said about 70 percent of his young students who participated, did so because their parents were looking for ways for them to learn discipline. “I have had students who say it has helped with their schoolwork and concentration levels,” he said. Mr Exon said he had seen development in how his students presented themselves in the community. “I had two students, two boys, and when they first started they wouldn’t look at me or say a word. Progressively, they came out of their shells,” he said. For more information on classes, people can visit www.facebook. com/stawelltkd. – Nick Ridley
