Support vital: MP BY DEAN LAWSON Member for Ripon Louise Staley has urged regional communities as well as state and federal governments to ensure people affected by severe meatworks restrictions have support they need. Ms Staley said Ararat and Stawell abattoirs helped form an economic foundation for both centres and restrictions would have a profound flow-on impact on many families. She said while tough restrictions were necessary to suppress a surge in COVID-19 cases, she felt for people whose lives would be turned upside down. “There is going to be a need for a lot of help from governments and the community for people in our region,” she said. “Some people will be able to access JobKeeper support, but many will end up on JobSeeker. It is going to be a very difficult time for them and the broader community.” Meat processing and distribution centres in regional as well as metropolitan areas have to reduce their working capacity by a third under strict new rules. Circumstances vary considerably between regional meat-processing businesses, some operating with hundreds of workers and others with relatively few. Frewstal managing director Robert Frew in Stawell said he was confident his lambwholesale firm could keep a staff of about 420 ‘on the books’ through modified work scheduling. “We’re not in too bad a position. We’ll just have to stretch our people out a bit and instead of working four days they will be working five,” he said. “We’ve been lucky with staff having holidays and rostered days off up their sleeves. If the pandemic keeps going through October and November it will hurt us quite a bit. “Hopefully we can get back to full production as quick as we can.” Ararat Meat Exports is awaiting further

details regarding restrictions before making any decisions. Managing director Michael Stapleton said the firm was running through all scenarios of how it could comply with restrictions and the hope was it would continue to operate. “At this stage it looks as though it will come at a considerable cost to the business,” he said. “We’re weighing up whether it’s worth continuing to produce meat or to shut down. Our aim is to keep operating. In the next two or three days we will find out if it is financially feasible to continue at a twothirds capacity. “We employ about 300 people and it is weighing on our minds heavily. There will be some changes and we’ll try to share the workload. Whatever happens will have a big impact on the local community and economy. “But they’re the cards we’ve been dealt and we have to adapt and work as best we can.”

Exemption

Member for Lowan Emma Kealy, meanwhile, is calling for small meat-processing plants to be exempt from the downsizing. Ms Kealy said cutting staff numbers by a third in some regional abattoirs would force some to close and threaten supply. Victoria is back in the grip of intense six-week restrictions as the government attempts to get a high number of COVID-19 cases under control. Melbourne is in harsh stage-four restrictions, while regional Victoria will be back under stage-three rules tonight. In returning to stage-three restrictions, people in the Wimmera, Mallee and Grampians fringe areas must stay at home except to buy necessary goods or for medical care or compassionate reasons, to exercise, work and study if necessary.

Aged-care staff remain vigilant BY DYLAN DE JONG

immera aged-care staff are on high alert to protect the safety and wellbeing of their senior residents as Victoria goes back into a statewide lockdown.

Numbers of new daily COVID-19 cases across the state remain in the hundreds as regional Victorians brace for the return of stage-three restrictions tonight. Victoria’s vulnerable citizens have become the primary subjects of heightened concern in recent weeks, with more than 1100 active cases and more than 100 coronavirus deaths linked to outbreaks in the aged-care sector. Premier Daniel Andrews spoke of his deep concern shortly before declaring a State of Disaster on Sunday afternoon. “The thought of this virus getting into regional aged care – and wiping out entire generations within our regional communities – is something that keeps me up at night,” he said.

Staff members and managers at Stawell aged-care centre Eventide Homes responded by doubling protective measures. Chief executive Sue Blakey said the centre had continued to carry out strict preventative measures, in place since the start of the pandemic. She said all staff needed to fill out a COVID-19 declaration form every two weeks and were under strict instruction to stay home if they presented with even the mildest of respiratory symptoms. “The form asks questions such as if they’d been in contact with anyone from a hotspot and it’s a case-by-case basis – there’s a risk assessment on that staff member which is determined by a registered nurse,” she said. “We tell our staff not to come if they’re feeling unwell, even just a sniffle. If they need money to pay bills, we can help out with that.” In March the centre converted a storage space into an eight-bed isolation wing to prepare for potential

outbreaks. “Our idea was that rather than co-hosting residents in the hostel, we would move a positive case immediately to that wing,” Mrs Blakey said. “We have dedicated staff who can work in that wing if people are unable to be transferred straight to hospital. It’s fairly extensive, but we don’t want to have to use it.” Eventide is home to 97 aged-care residents and 65 residents in independent living units. Mrs Blakey said her 135 staff members, including carers, cleaners and cooks, were working ‘tirelessly’ to reduce risk of transmission. “We have a lot of younger staff members and they’ve sacrificed a lot in their lives to work here. They’ve been amazing and we can’t do it without them,” she said. She said family members were also strictly limited to visits on compassionate grounds. “That’s on a case-by-case basis – if a resident or their family is struggling, we are enabling those visits,” she said.

“They go through screening questions, temperature is taken, masks are provided and if they want to be in the same room, they have to wear full PPE.” Mrs Blakey said everyone had a role to play in protecting the Wimmera’s senior citizens. “The community needs to do the right thing, wash their hands and wear a mask out in public. The key is keeping it out, not trying to manage it once it gets in,” she said. “Our slogan here is ‘we’re all in this together and let’s be COVIDfree’ – we just ask that everyone bear with us through this terrible time and we thank the community for their support.”

Sunnyside

Horsham’s Sunnyside Lutheran Retirement Village chief executive Denise Hooper said her staff members also underwent regular screening and strict visitation measures were in place. “Staff are really vigilant because

Project to expand migrant business skills Centre for Participation volunteers are finding ways to turn their hobby into a marketable skill during the COVID-19 pandemic. English language and micro-business student Phuong Dung Ha is hoping to turn her face-mask-crafting hobby into a micro business. The centre’s migrant liaison worker Cecile Vence, who works with Ms Ha, is hoping to help expand on her passion and start selling masks. “Sewing is my hobby. I made face masks for my family. When Cecile asked me if I can make masks for her family and friends, I was very happy and was excited to do it,” Ms Ha said. She said making her own masks out of cotton fabric was a way to relieve the demand and help prioritise surgical masks for doctors and nurses. “You can wash it every day and save disposable masks for the doctors and nurses, who are currently working very hard as our front-liners,” she said. “This does not only protect ourselves, but also protects the community. Anyone can do this.” Ms Ha started wearing and making her own masks at the beginning of the pandemic in March. Ms Vence said as demand had risen for masks, she started seeing greater potential for Ms Ha’s sewing ability.

“Phuong was one of the first people to wear a mask four months ago when the first wave of COVID-19 hit – she started making masks for her friends and close family. That’s where it all started,” she said. “With this current situation, I was thinking it could be a good opportunity to for the students, especially for those experienced in sewing. “We might be coming up with a program with Wimmera Development Association, which we might be

trying to help migrants to make their own masks. “The WDA might be able to help in providing sewing machines.” Ms Vence said crafting face masks was an ideal way to teach her students business and marketing skills. “This could address the issue of it being hard to find a job at this point in time,” she said. “The students have this passion of cooking and other activities they enjoy doing. We thought having a

micro business at this time would be a good help for the multi-cultural community. “It could be a good way to generate a bit of income, it might not be much, but it can help. “If you’ve got the passion in doing that, it doesn’t matter if you don’t earn much, so long as you love doing it and see the benefit of helping people, that’s the biggest bonus you get.” – Dylan De Jong

there’s the additional scare of the potential of not knowing if they’re infected and then spreading it into the organisation,” she said. “A lot are very conscientious because they get really close to our residents. If you have that care factor of treating them like your mum and dad, you’re not going to put them at risk, you’re going to do the right thing.” Ms Hooper said she believed the latest round of restrictions was necessary to keep residents safe. “I was reassuring the residents that I know that while this is hard for them it’s a good thing because it’s preventing more spread,” she said. “We’re minimising the risk to our organisation, so we’re trying to see it as a positive – you either let it go rampant or clamp down and be responsible. Hopefully we will get through this. “Please follow the government guidelines because this is real, and I don’t want to see more deaths in aged care. We all need to do our part.”

Stage three From page 1 They can travel in regional Victoria, but not for holiday accommodation or camping, and can continue to shop to meet essential needs under socialdistancing restrictions. No visitors are allowed in households and only two people or members of a household can gather in public. Remote learning has resumed for school children except for vulnerable children and children of essential workers. Special schools, childcare and kindergartens remain open. Restaurants and cafes can provide only takeaway and delivery services, and pubs and clubs can operate only bottle shop and takeaway services. Beauty and personal-care services, apart from hairdressers, must close but retail stores can remain open based on necessary goods and services. Community outdoor and indoor sport is also out of action. Rules differ significantly for metropolitan Melbourne as part of stagefour restrictions. A full list of latest restrictions is available on the Department of Health and Human Services website, www. dhhs.vic.gov.au/victorias-restrictionlevels-covid-19. • Figures released by the Department of Health and Human Services show the Wimmera had 10 confirmed active cases of COVID-19. Within municipal boundaries, Horsham had six, Northern Grampians two, Ararat one and West Wimmera one.

Agriculture team expands A

gricultural and environmental pests across the Wimmera are in the crosshairs of a project team that has expanded as part of a State Government Agricultural Workforce Plan.

A Wimmera Catchment Management Authority team will grow from 20 to 40 under the plan, designed to support farming communities and to keep Victorians working. Wimmera CMA chief executive David Brennan said a larger team would open the door for a comprehensive effort to combat invasive and costly pest weeds and animals. “It means we can tackle pressing issues with a lot more resources and achieve better outcomes than previously,” he said. “The team will be working right across the catchment on a range of different projects – on roadsides and riparian areas for example and other key environment targets with a primary objective to improve agriculture outcomes. “Rabbits and foxes will be especially targeted and this represents a great opportunity for greater work with landholders and Landcare groups. “Throwing a heap of additional resources at this has the potential to set up good environmental and agricultural outcomes for years in advance.” The State Government announced

the creation of an extra almost 60 full-time jobs during the next six months as part of the plan. Agriculture Minister Jaclyn Symes said the scheme involved a further investment of more than $3-million towards new jobs with CMAs as well as the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning. Team members will be involved in work that includes revegetation and fencing of important environmental areas such as waterways, weed control, soil sampling and water-quality monitoring on private and adjacent public land. “Job creation right across the state is crucial to keeping the Victorian economy moving right now, and agriculture is strongly placed to drive that,” Ms Symes said. “These new positions will support our vital agricultural sector through improving land health and pest control, and helping farmers to continue to deliver food to Victorians’ tables.”

WORKHORSE WAGON: Murtoa Stick Shed committee’s David Grigg with one of the historic rail wagons now on display at Murtoa. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Wagons arrive at historic shed Historic rail wagons representing the type used to transport grain in the past are now on display at Murtoa Stick Shed. The three GY wagons are on display on a section of specially built rail line in a car park area at the front of the shed. Seymour Railway Heritage Centre has provided the wagons for the stick shed at no charge. More than 6300 GY and HY rail wagons came off production lines from 1939 to 1957. About 1000 were from Birmingham in England, 3250 from Newport, Bendigo and Ballarat Railway workshop and a further 1020 built by NSW heavy engineering firm A. E. Goodwin Ltd.

The GY wagons were originally painted a usual Victorian Railways red and from 1948 a diagonal yellow stripe differentiated them from identical-looking but non-grain-proofed HYs. From 1970, GYs were progressively painted ‘Hansa yellow’. The GY was probably the most recognisable wagon class on the Victorian Railways network because of sheer numbers. When not hauling wheat they carried a variety of loads including containers, farm equipment and superphosphate. One of the most common sights in the Wimmera was long rakes of GYs, sometimes including up to 73 wagons, hauling a wheat harvest across the region.

The grain industry used the wagons to haul grain from distant concrete silos from areas such as Kaniva, Yaapeet and Patchewollock to Murtoa Stick Shed for storage. It then used the wagons to transport the grain to ports at Geelong and Portland for export. Murtoa Stick Shed management committee secretary David Grigg said the group was excited by the arrival of the wagons. “They have played a very significant role in the history of the grains industry in Victoria,” he said. “We thank Seymour Railway Heritage Centre for making the wagons available and former Murtoa resident and railway enthusiast Richard Parker for his assistance in gaining them for us.”

Green light for wind farm stage two H

BY DEAN LAWSON

orsham district is primed for much-needed economic stimulus with confirmation that work on a second stage of a multi-million-dollar Murra Warra Wind Farm will get underway this month.

A consortium leading the development north of Horsham has shored up investment details surrounding the $180-million project, which involves a further 38 turbines. On project completion, the Murra Warra landscape will feature 99 giant turbines that represent one of the largest renewable-energy-generating farms in the Southern Hemisphere. The first stage of the farm, Murra Warra I, already has 61 operational turbines.

Foundation works based on an expectation the second stage would proceed as planned means the project is ‘shovel ready’. The project will generate 400 full-time-equivalent jobs during a two-year construction period and ongoing employment opportunities during an operational lifetime. Project leaders estimate the first stage of the farm generated $4.4-million in general spending on accommodation and goods and services for the regional economy. They anticipate the project’s second-stage construction to have a similar impact. They also expect a community fund provided by the combined projects to inject an additional $4-million in investment into district projects during the lifetime of the farm.

Global investment manager Partners Group, on behalf of its clients, acquired the second stage of the farm, Murra Warra II, from the consortium which includes renewable energy company RES and Macquarie’s Green Investment Group, GIG. Partners Group acquired Murra Warra I in 2018. RES will provide construction and operational asset-management services under a long-term agreement. RES and GIG arranged a long-term power purchase agreement for Murra Warra II with utility company Snowy Hydro through its Renewable Energy Procurement Program. General Electric will provide the 38 5.5-megawatt turbines, which will have a combined output of 209MW. Project construction will occur under contract with General Electric Interna-

tional and its subcontractor, Zenviron. When completed the 38 turbines will generate enough energy to power 150,000 Australian households and offset more than 468,000 tonnes of carbon emissions annually. RES Australia chief executive Matt Rebbeck said RES was proud to have developed ‘another world-class project’. “It aligns with our vision of creating a future where everyone has access to affordable zero-carbon energy,” he said. “We are delighted to be able to continue our long-term involvement with the Murra Warra II wind farm and the local community through our construction management and asset-management services. “With over six gigawatts of operational projects under management

Clocking off for final time a ‘surreal feeling’ In the lead-up to her last day of work at Stawell Pharmacy, Jeanette Croton wrote down the names of all the people she had worked with throughout four decades in the industry. Her list included 100 names. “I was just thinking about all the people I had worked with over the years and started writing down names while I was watching the telly,” Mrs Croton said. “I didn’t realise it was that many. I’ve worked with some wonderful people throughout the years and made some great friends. I will miss the people the most.” Several customers visited Mrs Croton at the pharmacy on Friday, wishing her well on her last day. “I’m on long service leave now until December and then I’ll just fade into the mist,” she said. “I had planned to retire this year anyway and with everything going on with the COVID situation, now seemed like a good time. “It’s a strange feeling knowing I don’t have to get up and go to work and it will take a while to sink in.” Mrs Croton started her career as a pharmacy assistant at 16, working for Winifred Schwartz at Langford’s chemist in Stawell. “I have worked in pharmacy ever since, although I had about nine years off with my kids,” she said. “So much has changed over the years. When I started we had to write up all the scripts in a big ledger. The tills weren’t automatic back then either. “Technology has changed so many aspects of pharmacy work, from tills,

processing scripts, ordering and even online training.” When Mrs Schwartz sold her business to Nigel Paulet, Mrs Croton joined his Amcal store. “A little while later, Brian Hancock came along and once he took over, it was like a big family,” Mrs Croton said. “When I was younger I wanted to be a nurse, but once I started working for Brian I was just really happy in my job. I was able to work part time, which suited well with my kids, and I worked with some great people. I didn’t want to go anywhere else.” Mr Hancock retired last year after 26 years as owner and operator. Stawell Amcal Pharmacy has rebranded as Stawell Pharmacy, under the Alliance Pharmacy banner.

“It’s quite different working for a big company and it’s been a big transition process, but we’ve gotten used to it now,” Mrs Croton said. “The pandemic has made things tougher because a lot of people are on edge with the evolving restrictions and we have had to change our procedures accordingly.” Mrs Croton said clocking off for the last time was a surreal feeling. “I spent 27 years at Amcal – which is now an Alliance pharmacy – so it will take a while to sink in,” she said. “I had a few things in mind for retirement, such as a trip to Tasmania with some girlfriends, but of course, that’s been cancelled because of COVID. “I plan to spend more time with my children and grandchildren in

Ballarat when I can and help out with some day care.” Stawell Pharmacy staff celebrated Mrs Croton’s career at a dinner at Salinger’s Great Western on Friday night. Retail manager Wendy Cairns said Mrs Croton would be sorely missed by staff and customers alike. “Nettie has been such an integral part of the pharmacy team for so long now,” she said. “She is not only extremely knowledgeable and a great resource, she is also a great friend to us all. “She is kind, considerate and adored by everyone. She’s our go-to lady and her loyalty and kindness shine through. “She will be missed.” – Sarah Matthews

globally, and a portfolio approaching one gigawatt in Australia, we look forward to working with Partners Group to optimise the project’s construction and operational performance.” Macquarie’s Green Investment Group, ANZ, executive director Lachlan Creswell added he was also proud the project had reached a sale and construction phase following his group’s role in arranging equity, debt and the power purchase agreement. “The complementary partnership between GIG and RES has led to the successful development of a significant and sustainable renewable energy project for Victoria. The completion of stage one of the Murra Warra Wind Farm, and the development to construction of Murra Warra II marks a significant milestone for Australia’s renewable energy future,” he said.

Restructure of NAB branches Eight Wimmera NAB branches will move to reduced opening hours as part of a new model designed to retain hundreds of jobs. Under the new model, NAB will adjust opening hours across 114 smaller regional branches. Bankers will split their time between over the counter service and digital or phone banking support. Affected branches include Ararat, Balmoral agency, Edenhope agency, Jeparit agency, Kaniva agency, Nhill, Rainbow agency and St Arnaud agency. The branches will be open to customers from 9am to 12.30pm on weekdays from August 17. NAB Group personal banking executive Rachel Slade said outside of these hours, the bankers would support customers by phone and online chat, along with processing applications. “It is clear the face of banking is changing, especially in the way customers want to interact with us,” she said. “Our branches continue to be a really important part of many local communities, especially for local businesses. “On average a quarter of transactions take place between 9.30am and 10.30am in our regional branches. “Through this new model we can continue to be there to serve our customers and have meaningful conversations while also adapting to the way our customers are now banking.” “We think this move will strike that balance, keeping the doors open at 114 branches around the country, providing the opportunity for around 300 bankers to learn skills while we continue to serve our customers well.”

Continuing to fight a good fight W

e could almost hear a collective groan sweep across regional Victoria when Premier Daniel Andrews announced a return of stage-three restrictions.

Most of us had expected as much as it became obvious a clamp down on Melbourne was failing to prevent COVID-19 from escaping into the regions, let alone quelling its infection rate in the state’s capital. With an even tougher and necessary tightening of the screws in Melbourne has come another six weeks of hun-

kering down in the regions – albeit to nowhere near the extent of metropolitan areas. Returning to tougher restrictions is like being in a fist fight against a rugged bully. We’ve copped an early glancing blow to get the donnybrook started, dodged a heavy second punch to generate some confidence and thrown a few jabs of our own. But we’ve now copped a telling follow-up blow to the chin that’s left the legs a bit wobbly and raised all sorts of thoughts about survival and a need to navigate a way to safety.

EDITORIAL By Dean Lawson

While the physical health, especially of our most vulnerable is under obvious attack, our mental wellbeing is also copping a hammering. Mental resilience is an over-arching defensive mechanism, but like any other human attribute, can become

vulnerable under the weight of a variety of circumstances and expectations. While some in society have in-built mechanisms to methodically work through the ills of stress and anxiety, it can be much harder for others, regardless of how ‘tough’ they might seem. Mental health is a precious commodity and the foundation of overall community strength. It is something we must clearly identify and always work to nourish, strengthen and preserve. Critically, this involves people helping people – sometimes simply by

reaching out, calling a mate, having a chat, finding a way to have a laugh with each other and being aware that loneliness and hardship comes in many guises. We’ve all heard ad-nauseum the expression ‘we are all in this together’, but it’s true. We’re an inventive lot, having as a society proved time and again our ability to weather a fierce storm. We’re again under nature’s microscope and we must be confident that we can build our resilience through solidarity and collective effort.

F45 studio to open in Horsham

Flowers to fund research A group of Horsham gardening friends have received a letter of thanks from a cancer research institute for their voluntary efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic. The group had been growing, bunching and selling flowers for charity for about five years – with this year’s efforts going towards Ballarat’s Fiona Elsey Cancer Research Institute. The keen gardening contingent donated $1400 after their yearly Mother’s Day fundraiser to an institute that was founded following 14-year-old Fiona Elsey’s death due to cancer in 1991. Institute director Dr George Kannourakis passed on his thanks in a letter to the gardeners for their efforts in selling more than 250 bunches of flowers. Horsham’s Yvonne Dunn said despite Mother’s Day falling in the middle of a stage-three statewide lockdown in May, the group continued its efforts online. “We started off donating these chrysanthe-

mums and we bunched them up and sold them,” she said. “In previous years we have made about $2000-$2400. We used to sell them in Horsham Plaza, but this year because of COVID-19, one of the ladies put them on Facebook and we sold them online.” Mrs Dunn said the group’s donation would help fund vital research for one of the leading causes of death in Australia, with cancer claiming almost 50,000 lives in 2019. “My dad had asbestos cancer and he didn’t live long with cancer. He was in his late 70s,” she said. “I haven’t personally experienced anything traumatic, but everyone typically knows someone with cancer. “This is about getting better treatments. Research has come a long way, where some people can get a second chance of life through the different treatments they use.” – Dylan De Jong

The owner of two Victorian F45 fitness franchises plans to open a Horsham studio within six months. Leigh Brady, who in partnership owns studios in Ballarat and Bendigo, will open Horsham’s version of the popular fitness franchise in the former Rivers building in Wilson Street. “We’re ready to start construction, we are just waiting on the final approvals from Horsham council,” he said. “There’s not too much to do, we are just adding toilets, showers and change rooms and the gym will be in the big open space. “We are hoping to open within the next three to four months, but with the latest COVID-19 restrictions, we might experience some delays. “We hope to open by the end of the year, or at the latest, early next year. Either way, we should be open in six months.” The F in F45 stands for functional training, which incorporates a mix of circuit and high intensity interval training, HIIT, workouts. Each session runs for 45 minutes. F45 is a rapidly

Webster calls for regional rethink M

ember for Mallee Anne Webster is among Federal National party colleagues urging the State Government to revise stage-three restrictions for regional Victoria.

Dr Webster said the call was based on a ‘very’ low number of cases in most regions. She said regional Victoria understood the need for isolation of outbreak areas, but cautioned that stage-three restrictions on regional communities where cases were zero or very low and there was no community transmission would have adverse outcomes. “I and my federal National colleagues support the excellent work of the Australian Chief Medical Officer in implementing healthcare initiatives designed to slow the spread of COVID-19 while vaccine research continues,” she said. “While we need to learn to live with COVID-19, unnecessary restrictions weary the community without cause and threaten to decimate small businesses. “We are urging the Victorian State Government to give consideration to how new restrictions might affect regional Victoria and ask for a practical approach to allow our communities to operate throughout the pandemic. “While community spread has been high in Melbourne and around localised outbreaks such as Colac, the rest of regional Victoria has been able to keep the spread under control.” Dr Webster said regional Victoria had been calling for stronger lockdown protocols around Melbourne for four weeks now as a way of protecting regional areas from the virus.

“I join my Federal Victorian National colleagues and do not support these blanket bans across communities 400 to 600 kilometres away from Melbourne” – Anne Webster

“Those calls have been ignored by the State Government,” she said. “Now we have the virus in the southern parts of regional Victoria and blanket restrictions are being imposed as the Premier finally starts to put stronger restrictions around Melbourne. “Regional Victoria is a powerhouse of productivity and industry, which tight restrictions and city-centric policy decisions risk damaging permanently. “Because of the vital contribution that regional Victoria makes, and the risk to business viability, in conjunction with minimal and localised cases in Mallee, I join my Federal Victorian National colleagues and do not support these blanket bans across communities 400 to 600 kilometres away from Melbourne. “Regional Australians are always happy to do their part to support the Australian economy and can do so while wearing appropriate personal-protection equipment, adhering to social distancing and personal hygiene requirements. “It is vital regional industries and small businesses can maintain operations and services. We need to ensure our domestic supply chains are maintained and our export markets remain open so our commodities are able to meet international and domestic demand.”

Working towards masks for all Uncertainty about the supply of face masks for elderly and vulnerable people has sparked Member for Mallee Emma Kealy into helping spearhead a community drive across the region. Face marks are compulsory for people venturing into public areas and a shortage of the apparel has prompted the move. Ms Kealy has teamed with Evoke Kinesiology’s Arnna Pickering and a team of regional ‘captains’ to gather face masks made by the community and provide them to people in need. “There are elderly and vulnerable in our community who can’t afford or can’t access

disposable masks or reusable masks,” Ms Kealy said. “This is especially the case for those who don’t have a computer or aren’t on social media. They’re our most vulnerable and we need to make sure they have a mask.” Ms Kealy said she needed people in need of masks or willing to make and provide them free of charge to call her Horsham office on 5382 0097 or email emma.kealy@parliament.vic. gov.au for information. She said people could also drop masks at her office step at 114 Firebrace Street, Horsham, or respond to her post on her Facebook page.

Ms Kealy said there would be a supply of masks at her electorate office in Horsham and across her electorate. “I would like to say a huge thank-you to Arnna for driving this fantastic project, and to those who have already donated masks, including Bianca Inkster and Carlie Streeter at Horsham Amcal Pharmacy, Harvest Church Horsham and Horsham Church of Christ – your support is invaluable,” she said. “I’m writing to all our constituents over 70 that we know about to give them an update on the new stage-three COVID-19 restrictions, and I’ll offer a free mask if they need one.”

Horsham Rural City Council has moved to assure the community it is taking appropriate COVID-19 precautions with the use of contractors from outside the region. The council occasionally uses contractors from outside the municipality to complete projects where necessary. This week three people who have travelled to Horsham will carry out works at the city’s Selkirk Drive depot. None of the contractors are from metropolitan Melbourne. However, one resides in Geelong, which was subject to heightened coronavirus restrictions last week. The council has taken action to ensure its contractors have a suitable occupational health and safety plan which addresses coronavirus requirements. Relevant aspects of this include: • Pre-arrival arrangements, including no staff will attend if they have been in contact with people infected with COVID-19 in the previous 14 days. • Daily temperature checking. • Segregation of contractor and council staff at the depot. • Outside hours, the contractor team will be in self-contained housing and bring pre-purchased food and supplies. The council has also reminded the public the State Government has specifically allowed travel for work purposes, which means the council is not in a position to ban work-based travel.

Mandatory training for 2020 candidates Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison is confident mandatory candidate training will help prospective councillors understand eligibility requirements. He said the training would also provide information about the role of councillors and the commitment required. “It will help people considering standing for council to understand whether it is for them or not,” he said. Prospective candidates for the 2020 council elections will need to undertake the training in accordance with the Local Government Act 2020. Local Government Victoria is providing the training online. Dr Harrison said links to the training could be found through the Ararat council website, www. ararat.vic.gov.au. All prospective candidates must complete the training before they will be allowed to nominate to stand for election with the Victorian Electoral Commission. Dr Harrison encouraged anyone considering standing for the council who did not have access to the internet for online training to use facilities at Ararat Library. People can book a visit to the library by calling 5352 1722.

Business leader: We must be creative A

BY DEAN LAWSON

Business Horsham leader has identified innovative or ‘left of centre’ thinking as crucial in developing the Wimmera’s capacity to supply its own workforce.

Business Horsham deputy chair Paul Atherton said organisations offering training opportunities in the region also needed to adopt or expand a collegiate approach to make any plan a reality. He said there was a need for regional areas and centres at the heart of existing or prospective and emerging industries to work towards establishing autonomous workforce supply. And that meant getting up to speed in an ever-changing landscape. “We must consider the types of skilled people that will be in demand in an evolving future in the Wimmera and Horsham, that includes or supports industries such as mining, renewable energy and information technology, as well as agriculture,” he said. “Consider, for example, the different types of various skilled roles it takes to run sand-mining operations,

which are unfolding as we speak, or something such as cyber-security ventures, which are already critical in the regional business sphere. And then, what skills will be required in supporting modern health and businesses sectors. “The scope is significant. That means when it comes to providing training and education opportunities, we can’t afford individual organisations falling into a self-interest trap and playing their cards too close to their chest. Education and training in our community must be based on a collegiate approach – it must be a case of ‘all in’.” Mr Atherton, who operates Athletes Foot business in Horsham, was adding his thoughts to comments from fellow Horsham businessman Brian Watts. Mr Watts appealed last week for a groundswell of action to capitalise on a Federal Government $2-million JobTrainer package. Mr Watts called for a proactive collective approach from major business and community employers to work on a collaborative plan ‘to get things moving’.

What’s needed?

Mr Atherton said a key part of any investigation would be to take an expansive look at what was needed to fill a multitude of skill-based positions. “We tend to traditionally venture over a lot of old ground in efforts to fill traditional work roles. And while this is still critically important, we must think beyond that,” he said. “When considering potential career-development opportunities in the region we need to think left field and tap into our imaginations. “Mineral sands, for example, are on our door step and will be with us for at least an estimated 30 years. This industry will demand skills in both operational and technical spheres. “The opportunities might go well beyond what we’ve considered important in the past.” Mr Atherton said a serious analysis of workforce needs would also involve developing a clear and concise understanding of education needs, during and beyond secondary schooling. “Considering the potential growth in industry, it really does point to a

Paul Atherton serious examination of local education opportunities – not just in exploring technical trades, but also in academic, graduate and post-graduate areas,” he said. “Engineering, entrepreneurship, information technology, human resources – whatever fits into the broad picture – we should be considering collectively how we can make this happen. “And the concepts we explore should be much more than just about

training up our locals. It’s about establishing an environment that makes it attractive not only for people to stay, but for people to have good reason to come and live here. “We will get more professional people to the region if they know there is opportunity for them or their family members to get meaningful training or education here. “Make that happen and it will have an economic flow-on effect to the benefit of everyone.” sponsored by

POP-UP LESSON: Mia, 11, and Connor, 7, Frawley enjoy a swimming lesson with Horsham Aquatic Centre instructor Adam Cannon last week. The centre reinstated swimming lessons, introducing a ‘pop-up’ timetable starting July 30. The lessons incorporated a wide range of ages and abilities but were short-lived following the State Government declaring a ‘state of disaster’. The aquatic centre will close from Wednesday evening in line with stage-three COVID-19 restrictions. Centre manager Sam Winter said people who had booked to use the centre after the closure date would receive a full refund. “We know this is disappointing and we have really enjoyed being able to welcome people back since reopening,” she said. “But the government is making decisions with the best interests of our community in mind and we must all work together to reduce the spread.” Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Rain hope for river flows Wimmera Catchment Management Authority chief executive David Brennan said the river would be starting to get ‘thirsty’ after relatively dry winter conditions. He said the river system was in a healthy state but natural run-off from rain obviously played a crucial role in maintaining conditions. “Statistics show we’re having a bit of a dry period after a good break earlier in the year,” he said. “A quick scan of water storages shows we’re at 31 percent of capacity, while at the same time last year we were at 39. As we know, it takes a fair bit of rain to wet up the catchment to generate run-off.” Mr Brennan said rain would be an important factor in supplementing environmental water flows. A flow-release schedule, designed to artificially water the system to allow the authority to manage waterway environmental health, started from the new financial year,” he said. “For the delivery of our environmental quotas we’re certainly hoping for some good rain to appear on the horizon. “Our indicative figures surrounding environmental water releases for the year ahead are very conservative and we’re relying on natural flows in the riv-

ers and creeks to do much of the heavy lifting. This is because we simply don’t have an over-abundance of environmental water in the system. “It is basically a month-by-month proposition for environmental flows at the moment. Technically, we have opened the new watering year and adapt environmental-flow planning to conditions and circumstances.”

Monitoring

Mentors in demand for learners

Mr Brennan said managing a largescale river and catchment system that was integral to the health and wellbeing of regional communities and the natural environment demanded regular monitoring. “We make calculations, looking at things such as salinity levels in areas of the Wimmera River, which might prompt us into using environmental allocations earlier than we would have liked,” he said. “It’s been getting dry and unless we get good rain in the next few weeks it won’t be looking good for natural flows.” The Wimmera River system forms a massive arterial network and its headworks are the primary source of a vast regional water supply. Long-time human influence in the region based on socio-economic needs and development has dramatically changed the system’s natural environment and left relatively few pristine areas. But an environmentally sound system remains crucial for the prosperity for, geographically, about a third of Victoria.

Mentors are in high demand for a learner-driver program underway in Ararat, Northern Grampians and Pyrenees municipalities. Program co-ordinator Penny Walton-Bourke said six new volunteer mentors participated in a recent training session. “It’s been very exciting to welcome some new mentors on board, but interest in the program is steadily increasing and we are on the lookout for more members of the community to sign up and help a young person gain their probationary licence,” she said. Central Grampians LLEN leads the TAC L2P Program in the three municipalities. L2P is a learner-driver program for people aged 16 and older without access to a supervising driver or vehicle.

require a big time commitment and is an easy way to have a positive influence on a young person’s future. “We are lucky to have some incredible mentors as part of our team, but due to an influx of new drivers, we desperately need extra volunteers to keep the program running smoothly.” Ms Walton-Bourke said CGLLEN was expanding the L2P Program to cover St Arnaud, but there was also a need for mentors in Ararat, Stawell and Beaufort. To be eligible to become an L2P mentor people must be older than 21, hold a current Victorian driver’s licence and be willing to undergo a driver-history check and a Working with Children check. Anyone interested in becoming an L2P driver mentor can call Ms Walton-Bourke on 5352 3266 or 0418 535 478.

Housing ‘out of reach’ A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

Wimmera woman who is struggling to find secure housing is echoing a plea to improve affordable housing opportunities across the region. Amber, 25, who did not wish to disclose her surname, is staying in Uniting Wimmera’s transitional housing with her son while she works with a support worker to find a permanent residence. Amber, before falling pregnant, had slept in toilet blocks or moved between houses. During pregnancy she was living in a caravan in a friend’s back yard. Amber said although she was relieved to be in Uniting’s care in accommodation for 13 weeks, the pressing need for permanent housing was growing deeper. The young mother said she was concerned the Wimmera’s lack of affordable housing was going to be a major hurdle in gaining a secure roof over her head. “This is short-term and I still have the stress of trying to find permanent housing with my son,” she said. “Access to public housing is limited and being a single mother on one income, it has been difficult for a real estate agency to give me a go.” Uniting works with people who fall homeless for many reasons, such as relationship breakdown, family violence, people exiting correctional facilities, loss of jobs or unable to find accommodation. Amber said she believed the public perception that only people experiencing drug and alcohol problems were falling homelessness needed to change. “Not all homeless people are using drugs or alcohol. People always say that’s the cause, but it’s not. The rising rent cost is,” she said. “I would like to change how people see it, for them to take the time to understand it and acknowledge that it is there. “To make people aware of people couch surfing and in crisis accom-

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER modation – I think the awareness and stigma needs to change.” Amber encouraged anyone experiencing housing difficulties to reach out and stay positive. “Don’t give up. If you give up you have already lost,” she said. “Stay in contact with your supports and don’t be picky – make your own path and always be kind.”

On the rise

In the past year, Uniting Wimmera services saw 1233 people who were homeless or at risk of homelessness seek support. Of those, 532 were women, 398 were men and 303 were children under the age of 14. The service-provider expects demand for homelessness support to again be amplified as regional Victoria re-enters stage-three COVID-19 restrictions. Homelessness program leader Belinda Gilpin said during this time more people already in vulnerable living circumstances were at risk of falling homeless. “We have seen a 62 percent increase in spend assisting households

with emergency accommodation since the same period last year, from March 16 to current, due to the effect of COVID-19,” she said. “This was largely due to fear of getting the virus and having additional people in your household, and wanting to keep family safe, leaving people who were couch surfing with no other options. “We have people sleeping in their cars or camper vans. There are people in Horsham that will be sleeping for a short time by the river in a swag.” Ms Gilpin said people in Amber’s situation were likely to experience a continuous sense of uncertainty while searching for a place to live. “She is working through her exit plan to where she will transition to,” she said. “We were able to assist her with rental references, which is really great for people who have never rented before. “It’s hard because people can be in this situation for an unknown period of time and they try so hard and they’re often not given the op-

portunity for private rental.” Ms Gilpin said affordable housing in the Wimmera was challenging Uniting’s support workers to help people find long-term options. “There is an incredible lack of housing in this region. It’s expensive and out of reach for people – their income just isn’t enough to be able to fund rent and their cost of living,” she said. “And there’s a lot of people who go to inspections for houses too, which makes it really hard.” Ms Gilpin said homelessness could happen to anyone “It doesn’t discriminate between ages. We have young and old people, male, female and different backgrounds,” she said. “We have a lot of clients who have been couch surfing and that environment might be overcrowded and violence might even be present.” As part of Homelessness Week, from August 3 to 8, Uniting Vic. Tas is joining forces with organisations across the country to raise awareness of people at risk of, or currently experiencing homelessness.

Plea for support Uniting Wimmera homelessness program leader Belinda Gilpin is pleading for the State Government to extend a homelessness support package to regional Victoria. Ms Gilpin said it was ‘disappointing’ to see regional Victoria overlooked on an issue that was leaving people sleeping rough or couch surfing, especially during winter. The State Government has extended its homelessness support package to house people in hotels during the COVID-19 pandemic until April next year for people in Melbourne suburbs. The $150-million extension means 2000 rough sleepers will have somewhere safe to ride out the rest of the pandemic, but the program will not extend to the regions. “We must see a greater focus on homelessness in rural Victoria – we urgently need a bigger social housing safety net here in our area,” Ms Gilpin said. “There is always a huge focus on the cities and the outer suburbs whereas rural Victoria is often dismissed.” Ms Gilpin said the program would be a ‘major relief’ for Uniting Wimmera, which had already maxed out its own temporary or emergency housing options. “We just have to say no because we have no housing available. It’s not good enough,” she said. “If we were able to use accommodation like that in a motel or hotel setting, that would be 20 or 30 rooms they could use to help people get back on their feet and secure long-term housing.” Ms Gilpin said COVID-19 was making it harder for people who were struggling to find somewhere to stay, even short-term. “I have had clients who when left with no options will go back into the city to use their resources, but because of COVID-19 they can no longer do that,” she said. She said homelessness was often a hidden issue in the Wimmera. “It’s evident when you go into the city because you see it with your eyes, you see people on the street,” she said. “It’s different here – we do have people sleeping rough, but it’s mainly people who are couch surfing. It’s not something people regularly see and relate to compared with the cities.” – Dylan De Jong

Regional promotion at national level

peculation about regional investment opportunities that might emerge in a post-covid landscape continues to develop after a meeting involving national private-sector leaders.

Prospects for regional growth across the country – a key focus of Wimmera development, municipal and community leaders – was the subject of a second Regional Australia Council 2031 meeting. Federal Decentralisation and Regional Education Minister Andrew Gee addressed the virtual meeting, part of a push to support development, investment and prosperity of regional Australia. “I was delighted to address the

RAC2031, especially given the group’s strong focus on regionalisation and regional jobs,” he said. “Getting more folks to move to the country has been a priority for the Coalition Government since 2013. “We’ve been encouraging government agencies to relocate parts of their operations to country Australia. “However, there remains significant room to build upon and broaden our decentralisation agenda, particularly when it comes to attracting corporate organisations, sole traders and professionals to the regions.” Mr Gee said it was critical government continued to work closely with industry to remove impediments preventing individuals and businesses from relocating.

“This especially applies to now, as people across Australia realise that working from home is possible and are considering a ‘tree change’,” he said.

Wimmera

Hindmarsh mayor and long-time municipal leader Rob Gersch said in early May he believed people’s desire for ‘quality of life’ would open a growth-opportunity door for Wimmera-Mallee communities. He said at the time a major revelation to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic was broad confirmation that many one-person or family businesses could work efficiently online from their homes. He also stressed a measured and driven approach would be critical in

making the most of the opportunity. Mr Gee said Australia Regional Council 2031 would play an important role in developing the plans and resources to help corporate organisations and employees make the move and call regional Australia home. He said creating the right conditions and policy framework for private companies to invest in the regions was paramount. Regional Australia Institute, an independent ‘think tank’ focused on regional Australia, is also a key promotional player at a national level. Institute chief executive Liz Ritchie said a megacity outlook in Australia was far from fixed. “Australians have alternatives and people want choice about where

they can build their future,” she said. “COVID-19 has changed the way we all live and work. “It has fast-tracked the acceptance of working from home or even another location. People can now live where they love, not where they work. “Our corporate members are already reporting a 20 percent increase in workforce productivity since COVID-19 began earlier this year – because of changes to workplace flexibility. “We know there is a great opportunity here and we look forward to working with Minister Gee and his government to develop our national awareness campaign to promote working, living and investing in regional Australia.”

POPULAR: Scooby, the ‘sensory pet’ gives comfort to Patricia Hinchey Centre regulars.

Toy donation appreciated People who visit East Grampians Health Service’s Patricia Hinchey Centre in Ararat are making the most of activities and games resulting from a donation from the health service’s Ark Toy and Activity Library. Patricia Hinchey Centre is a day-program centre that aims to reduce the social isolation that can lead to poor health

for elderly residents. The service transports participants to and from their homes with one of the centre’s three buses and throughout the day people take part in a variety of activities. Activities involve music, movies, exercise and art to stimulate the brain, as well as lunch and morning and afternoon tea.

One of the most popular engagement items involves a ‘sensory pet’, a ‘cavalier King Charles spaniel’ called Scooby that demonstrates ‘real life’ mannerisms. Other products people are enjoying include jigsaw puzzles, a snakes and ladders game, bean-bag toss game, mazes and a plumber’s mate activity box.

Barley Banquet committee looks to 2021 The Barley Banquet is among annual events to fall victim to the coronavirus pandemic. Rupanyup Major Events committee, which runs the banquet, has decided not to proceed with this year’s event for the safety of all involved, along with the wider community. The Barley Banquet is a significant annual community and charity event, which acts as a major fundraiser for the Rupanyup community.

The black-tie day out occurs in a barley paddock and attracts about 400 people from the Wimmera and beyond. The popular social outing also promotes agriculture and rural Victoria. Since its inception in 1995, the event has raised more than $250,000 for community projects and services. The committee will now look ahead to the 2021 banquet.

CFA: It’s never too early to plan A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

n operations leader overseeing the Wimmera’s firefighting crews is reminding all residents ‘it is never too early’ to prepare for the region’s fire danger period.

Country Fire Authority District 17 operations manager Craig Brittain said higher than average spring rain forecasted for the Wimmera was likely to result in higher fuel loads during summer. Mr Brittain said preparedness was key to saving lives and protecting assets throughout the Wimmera’s driest summer months. This comes at a time when all CFA career staff were recruited to a newly formed Fire Rescue Victoria, FRV, as part of reforms to Victoria’s fire rescue organisations starting July 1. Mr Brittain said he was recruited to FRV but was seconded back into his position at Horsham’s CFA headquarters and would continue overseeing brigades across the region. He has assured Wimmera residents he would continue to protect his community despite reforms. “I’m still living in Horsham, looking after our brigades,” he said. “We will continue to focus on what we need to focus on – which is supporting our members and supporting our brigades to make sure they still have the ability to protect our communities.” A distant memory throughout the COVID-19 pandemic for most, the 2019-20 bushfire season is still likely front of mind for people who lost their loved ones, property, livestock and everything in between. Authorities estimated fires burnt about 18.6-million hectares, destroyed more than 5900 buildings and killed at least 34 people. World Wild Fund for Nature reported nearly three billion animals – mammals, reptiles, birds, and frogs – were killed or displaced. Australian leaders were calling on all resources and personnel to help fight walls of flames. Some Wimmera CFA firefighters committed themselves to the frontline in Victoria’s east. Mr Brittain said while the Wimmera was less affected, the ‘Black Summer’ bushfires were a reminder that fire management needed to be a year-round process. “Preparedness has got to be one of the biggest things,” he said. “Last summer we saw lighting and multiple fires occur in the southern end of our district and it’s not something you can put a finger on. “If we get those high wind days, low humidity and dry storms come through, that’s when we have issues. “Most of our areas are of concern, especially when we have isolated communities, individuals or farming land where it’s their home, their income, their everything – it’s all a concern for us.” Mr Brittain said the fire danger period in the

Country Fire Authority District 17 operations manager Craig Brittain region generally started in October, but he recommended residents started preparing earlier. “As a rule of thumb, we used to look at AFL grand final day, the last Saturday of September, he said. “If you haven’t prepared your property for summer by then, you’re at risk.”

Plan

Mr Brittain said it was important to manage fuel loads around the house and to have a fire safety plan. “It’s about keeping the grass low, trimming back trees and bushes and moving excess fuel loads away from your house,” he said. “You might want to have some firefighting equipment around such as pumps, hoses and personal protective equipment. “Have a fire plan – it’s too late on a day of high risk to start preparing.” Mr Brittain said CFA brigades and members were always preparing for the fire danger period. “We always come into our summers with volunteers completing all their pre-season preparedness and making themselves available – which is a fantastic effort,” he said. Mr Brittain said the COVID-19 pandemic was also preventing CFA brigades recruiting and training members. But he said District 17 still had more than 1800 personnel available across the region, up on previous years. “Because of coronavirus this year and restrictions on face-to-face training that means we haven’t been able to run any recruitment courses,” he said. “But most of our bigger brigades have quite a number of personnel available to them.” Mr Brittain said the CFA would still be there to protect the community. “CFA is a 100 percent volunteer-based organisation – always was, always will be – these people are out there leaving their homes, families and workplaces to do what they do best, to protect life and property,” he said.

DRESSED TO IMPRESS: Holy Trinity Lutheran College Horsham junior school students made the most of a Wacky Wednesday dress-up day last week. Organised by the Student Representative Council, SRC, students were encouraged to dress in their ‘wackiest’ outfit and donate a gold coin to support a bushfire relief koala rescue project. Students raised $474. SRC members, with the help of teachers, also rearranged the school and added ‘out of place’ items around the school grounds for students to find.

National award for business T

BY DEAN LAWSON

REWARD: BugROff Pest Busters has won a national award. Pictured celebrating are team members, from left, Rebekah Pfeiffer, Dinah Fax, Steve Olver and Sherlock, Maddie Atkins, Tait McMartin, Erin Botterill and Declan Olver. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

he owner of a pest-control business that has clinched a national award believes the Wimmera community and his team are the primary reasons for the accolade.

Steve Olver, who runs BugROff Pest Busters, said being named Australia’s pest manager of the year for a company employing between three and 10 people, was also a win for the region. “To be named the best in Australia is huge for us. We’re very humbled,” he said. “The award is very much about the community that supports us and I also have an awesome team around me.” BugROff’s Australian Environmental Pest Managers Association win is also a key milestone for Mr Olver and his businesses, which has its headquarters in Horsham providing customer services in a 200-kilometre radius and now includes spin-off franchises. “Starting as a one-person operation, this was the final goal I wanted to achieve when I started in pest control – I wanted to become the best in Australia – it’s awesome that we’ve been able to do that in 13 years,” he said. “That’s something you can’t do without local community support and it is as much a reward for the Wimmera as anyone.” BugROff broke relatively new

ground in the industry in its infancy by adopting the use of detection dogs to sniff out termites in target areas. With the business’s original dogs Buster and Bella now retired and at new homes, BugROff continues to tap into canine skills, using the sensitive nose of an English springer spaniel called Sherlock. Mr Olver said the process of being nominated and assessed was in depth with a four-person panel of industry leaders interviewing and scoring businesses on various aspects of their nomination.

“They do interviews across three days and they can go for 10 minutes to an hour and an overall process of scoring is good because it shows you areas of where you can improve,” he said. “They commended us on our backend systems, loving the fact that we stick to Australian standards in all that we do. “They also loved our point of difference such as employing female technicians and also using detection dogs and were impressed with our customer relations. “We won the Victorian award last

year, but this is the first time we’ve been national winners. “When you think of all the pest-control businesses in Australia it is absolutely fantastic. “It usually gets announced at a gala dinner and conference, which couldn’t happen this year, and we usually have to wait until the end of August for results. But it all happened really quickly. “We found out last week with a call from one of the judges and then we let the whole team know. As a huge part of winning the award they were absolutely stoked.”

Logo design competition Wimmera Committee Against Family Violence is seeking community help to design a logo for the group. Committee chairman Geoff Miller said the group had previously operated under the White Ribbon banner and needed a new logo. “With the renaming of the group last year following the demise of White Ribbon Australia, we need a recognisable symbol to use on our banners and promotions,” he said. Wimmera Committee Against Family Violence has invited people to design a logo that represented the vision of the committee. The group promotes community awareness and education through participation in activities for the prevention of violence against women and children in the Wimmera and southern Mallee. “We encourage people to get involved in this activity and support the committee’s commitment to eliminate family violence in our community,” Mr Miller said. Entries close on August 28 with the winner receiving a $200 gift voucher of their choice. A design brief is available by emailing Janine.Harfield@whcg. org.au.

Recommendations ready for action Fencing, revegetation, weed control and pest and animal control are among recommendations to improve the health and flow connectivity of Dunmunkle Creek. The recommendations are in a Dunmunkle Creek Waterway Action Plan. Wimmera Catchment Management Authority has published the final plan, which consultant Water Technology developed with community input during the past six months. The new plan is available on website wcma.vic.gov.au/publications. Wimmera CMA operational delivery manager Luke Austin said plan objectives included improving the health of the creek, protecting remnant vegetation and improving connections between vegetation. Other objectives are to improve flow connectivity to enable environmental watering, protect drought refuges for plants and animals and maintain social, cultural and economic values. Mr Austin said weed control was an important management directive, with high ly invasive and noxious horehound and boxthorn weed prevalent throughout the creek’s riparian zone. He said community input was valuable in finalising the plan. “We thank the community for their con-

Dunmunkle Creek is a distributary of the Wimmera River and is a highly modified and channelised system. It gets natural flows through a breakout from the Wimmera River north-west of Glenorchy during times of high flow. The creek flows through Rupanyup and continues north into the southern Mallee. The action plan covers an area from the

Wimmera River near Glenorchy to Lawler Road, Boolite. Waterway Action Plans aim to identify the condition of a waterway and guide management to maintain and improve its condition. Action plans document values, such as remnant patches of native vegetation, recreational opportunities and agricultural uses. They also document threats such as bank erosion and weed infestations.

Cycling challenge for shed Façade A

funding

BY DYLAN DE JONG

Wimmera cycling enthusiast is embarking on a 365-day challenge to ride his bike 5000 kilometres to raise money to expand a community project.

Anglican Parish of Warracknabeal reverend James Wood has set off on a year-long challenge to raise $25,000 for a purpose-built ‘Boys’ Shed’ in the town. A Boys’ Shed, similar to Men’s Sheds, is a place where boys can learn and experiment in woodwork as an opportunity to ‘grow into strong, thoughtful and self-confident young men’. The concept for Warracknabeal came after Mr Wood moved to the region from Queanbeyan, New South Wales, where he was helping a school with the same program more than two years ago. He said he wanted kick-start the program in Warracknabeal to engage young men and decided to create a community shed in his garage. “I think there’s a need for this across the board – the Boys’ Shed is a really simple concept. It’s about creating a space where boys can experiment and explore,” he said. In raising money for the program, Mr Wood plans to ride at least 100km each week and will regularly update his journey on Instagram and YouTube. He said although he was a conditioned cyclist, he knew he had a long road ahead of him. “I was a mountain biker when I was living in Queanbeyan but became a road rider when I moved to Warracknabeal,” he said. “Since January this year, I was al-

ready riding roughly 90 kilometres a week but that last 10 to 15 kilometres is a real challenge because I have to get on the bike a few extra times a week. “I go on rides every Saturday with friends, but this takes it to another level – finding the time, space and working with the weather.” Mr Wood plans to expand on the Boys’ Shed program to further nurture a culture of encouragement, co-operation and social responsibility. All activities at the Boys’ Shed were called off during the COVID-19 pandemic, but Mr Wood said he hoped his cycling efforts would help expand and boost awareness of the program. He said a purpose-built shed would allow more boys to get involved to meet a growing need within Warracknabeal and surrounding communities. “For the practical side of the program

we use wooden pallets, hand tools and minimal power tools – it gives an opportunity to create something with their hands,” he said. “The boys might realise it takes more patience and persistence to make a box, a bike ramp or bookshelf than they initially thought.” Mr Wood said participants had the opportunity to learn key life skills they might miss out on at home. “It’s fundamental to create a space where the boys grow respect for themself, women, elders, the tools they use and to create a space to make a project of their own with support and encouragement in a safe environment,” he said. “Participants can be themselves – this is really important, where there is no judgement or barriers and a really good code of ethics.

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

“Everyone has a right to be there. “Hopefully this will equip boys to get on with it, dream and create.” The Boys’ Shed is part of the parish’s five-year plan, ‘Regenerate’, to renew people, revive projects and restore place. “I’ve been living in Warracknabeal for two-and-a-half years as priest of the church. I was concerned over the two-and-a-half years what direction we should take for the future,” Mr Wood said. “Part of this is about regaining confidence in the church, but my sole mission is to build a strong community.” Mr Wood said he hoped $25,000 would cover at least half the costs involved in building a new shed.

Funding applications have opened again for more Ararat district business owners keen to give their business façades a facelift. Ararat Rural City Council had a successful Façades Improvement Grants Scheme last year and is keen to do more. The council provides grants of up to $5000 on a dollar-for-dollar basis for Ararat businesses to maintain or refresh the municipality’s shopfronts. In this round of grants it has budgeted $50,000. Council chief executive Tim Harrison said he was pleased to see the scheme return for 2020. “In such a difficult and uncertain year, schemes such as this allow for us to focus on the positive things and help lift the spirit of our local businesses, which might be having an especially difficult time,” he said. “Our 2019 recipients put these funds to great use, freshening up their paint, updating their signs or just for some maintenance and repairs.” A council panel will assess all applications and Dr Harrison will notify all that are successful. A wide range of businesses across the municipality are eligible. The council has encouraged any with a street frontage to apply. Applications open today and close on October 30. All eligibility and application requirements are available through Ararat Rural City Council website, ararat.vic.gov.au.

Protecting birds, mammals BY DYLAN DE JONG

otion sensor cameras helping a Wimmera Landcare group to monitor predatory animal numbers in bushland will guide a project to protect native birds and mammals.

Stawell Urban Landcare Group, SULG, has installed four motion sensor cameras in Deep Lead Nature Conservation Reserve as part of a feral monitoring project. Grampians Ark co-ordinator Derrek Sandow assisted the Landcare group to place the cameras in strategic locations that would be used to count numbers of feral and wild animals. SULG president John Pye said animals such as cats and foxes roaming the ironbark forest were likely responsible for a reduction in numbers of native birds and mammals. “We are not finding any mammals or birds in our nest boxes,” he said. “In the past we’d actually found a range of animals, such as feathertail gliders and possums, and now suddenly there are none. “As we collect data from the cameras, we can determine what the next stage will actually be. “We would like to work with Parks Victoria to control and eliminate cats and foxes.” SULG plans to periodically swap the SD memory cards and record numbers of animals caught on footage. “This is a project that will run for several years. We plan to go out on a monthly rotation and swap the SD cards,” Mr Pye said.

WATCHFUL EYE: Stawell Urban Landcare Group treasurer Julie Andrew watches on as group president John Pye checks a camera set up to gauge feral and wild animals. “We’ll go through the SD cards, record all the animals and put them into a data base, which will then be used for building scientific data that will justify applying for a grant to start a control program.” He said this program would ensure native animal species could continue to live in the forestry for generations to come. “We need to quantify what the potential impact feral species are having in that environment,” he said. “If we find there’s a lot and you start controlling those numbers, you’d expect to see a recovery of those species that are struggling due to predation. “Sugar gliders, squirrel gliders, feathertail gliders, any nesting birds

and small possums are a significant part of the environment.” Mr Pye said part of controlling a feral cat population was improving education about pet ownership. “Maybe a program like this will encourage people to microchip their animals and also contain them within their properties,” he said. “We’ll be asking pet owners in Stawell to show a bit more care about how they manage their cats.” The Landcare group also runs yearly walks for primary school students at Stawell, with grades three and four students completing activities to improve biodiversity and create a healthier environment. Mr Pye said it would be unlikely the group could run these walks this

Ararat’s $60,000 Laby Street drainage works designed to meet excess stormwater needs have started. Ararat Rural City Council approved the upgrades, which involve replacing 300-millimetre pipes with 600-millimetre pipes, as part of its new budget. During the project the council will need to remove some trees but will replace them with species better suited to an urban environment. The council expects to complete the work, likely to create minor noise disruptions and a temporary street detour, by the end of September Council chief executive Tim Harrison said the project would lead to ‘much-needed’ improvement in the area. “Residents and the wider community can be assured the staff are working hard to ensure that there are minimal disruptions while the works are underway,” he said. “People will be well informed of any disruptions and given plenty of time to plan.” Dr Harrison said anyone with questions could call Norm Woodhams on 5355 0908.

Money for artist A Natimuk artist and creative business is among people and groups across the state to receive State Government funding to help them keep working and stay creative throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Labor Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford said a $4600 Sustaining Creative Workers grant to Hannah French would support Rainbow Serpent Festival. The grant is to undertake skills development in animation and projection to support ongoing creative and teaching practices. The Sustaining Creative Workers program provides targeted quick-response help to creative-worker Victorians hard-hit by the crisis. A second tranche of the program provides grants totalling $2.3-million to 373 independent creative workers and micro-businesses and organisations across Victoria.

year. “The ironbark walks would normally happen in September, but it will depend on what is happening with COVID-19 at that point,” he said. Mr Pye said it would be disappointing for students to miss out on the walks that have been almost a 20-year tradition. “It’s looking at that next generation,” he said. “Part of the kids being out and seeing the beauty and complexities in the environment and seeing how some people treat it is taking that message home with them. “If we treat the environment as something that is just out there and we’re not engaging with, then we won’t look after it.”

Put to pasture

itsubishi Motors Corporation has revealed it will be retiring its longest running model in the near future, opting to end production of its longstanding Pajero off-roader after nearly four decades of service.

Having been savaged by the coronavirus pandemic – among other factors – the corporation says it is staring down the barrel of a projected $A1.86b loss when the Japanese financial year ends next March. If the predictions hold true, it will be the brand’s biggest loss in 18 years. The Pajero’s axing comes as part of company’s ‘Small but Beautiful’ mid-term business plan, which aims to reduce fixed costs by 20 percent or more, with the biggest saving – up to

15 percent – set to be made through redundancies and other ‘headcount rationalisation’ measures. Other measures being taken include a reduced presence in Europe in favour of a greater emphasis on the ASEAN Oceanic, African and South American markets – targeted 11.4 percent market share – and a greatly enhanced focus on plug-in hybrid technology courtesy of the Alliance. Mitsubishi Motors Corporation, MMC, representative executive officer and chief executive Takao Kato said the company would shift its strategy from all-round expansion to selection and concentration. “First of all, we will complete our structural reforms and further strengthen our competitive areas – ultimately to build a corporate structure

that can surely generate profits during this mid-term period,” he said. While the long-serving Pajero is being retired, the rest of MMC’s line-up is set to continue full steam ahead with an updated Eclipse Cross, due in Australia at the end of this year, bringing updated styling, a revised interior and a new infotainment system. Next year an all-new Outlander will arrive Down Under promising to be ‘bigger, bolder and better’ than ever as well as being the ‘quietest and bestequipped’ model ever offered. Following about a year behind the new Outlander will be a new PHEV variant along with an all-new Triton, tipped to share its underpinnings with the next-generation Nissan Navara, as per the ‘Small but Beautiful’ clause to leverage more resources from the

Mitsubishi calls it quits on Pajero after four decades

Alliance. Further along the lines will come the inevitable Triton-based Pajero Sport, as well as two new models yet to be named or detailed, let alone confirmed for Australia, while the ASEAN market will also be treated to an exclusive electric vehicle and designated MPV. Excluding the pint-sized Mirage, the Mitsubishi Motors Australia Limited passenger vehicle line-up is comprised entirely of SUVs, with the strong-selling Triton and new Express classed as light-commercial vehicles. Mitsubishi Motors Australia Limited chief executive Shaun Westcott said the looming Eclipse Cross and new Outlander were proof of the brand’s ‘commitment to deliver high quality, leading-edge SUVs to Australian owners and their families’.

With such a heavy emphasis on midsized and compact SUVs, along with ever strengthening popularity of pickup trucks, the final nail in the coffin for the Pajero was its relatively poor sales performance, with just 979 units sold throughout the first half of 2020. By comparison, the more affordable – and ute-based – Pajero Sport outsold its aged counterpart more than three times over, with the now 14-year-old fourth-generation Pajero unable to get close to the 8632 sales, or 19.9 percent segment share, of its arch-rival, the Toyota Prado. Pajero production is officially slated to end in either August or September next year, meaning the rugged SUV should still be present in Aussie showrooms until at least the start of 2022. – Callum Hunter

Its asking price makes it the second most affordable member of Ferrari Australasia’s line-up, behind the $398,888 Portofino convertible and below the F8 Tributo coupe which asks $484,888. While first deliveries are expected to arrive in the first quarter of next year, new orders will see a wait time of about 12 months to receive their new Prancing Horse model. The front-engined Roma ushers in a new design language for Ferrari, with sleek, slim headlights that sit in front of bulging front wheelarches, with an aggressive front splitter giving the minimalist front end a greater sense of width. Unusually, the front grille is finished in the same colour as the body, while 20-inch wheels are fitted as standard. Its minimalist approach continues at the rear with the quad tail-lights neatly embedded into the rear lip spoiler, while the signature Ferrari quad-exit exhaust pipes are housed within a large carbon-fibre diffuser. Despite its minimalist look, the

and emissions figures are yet to be revealed, however Ferrari claims the engine is Euro6d emissions compliant. Inside, Ferrari designers have tried to give the Roma’s cabin a sense of symmetry as opposed to its strictly driverfocused stablemates, with a number of premium materials used such as Frau leather, Alcantara, chromed aluminium and carbon fibre. On the dashboard, Ferrari has referenced the metal gear lever gate of old to create a new metal plate housing for its F1 controls, while the steering wheel features a raft of controls that allow the driver to control numerous functions without their hands leaving the steering wheel. The instrument cluster comprises a 16.0-inch digital screen that is curved for easier reading. It can be extensively personalised to suit a user’s tastes. Complementing the instrument cluster is an 8.4-inch infotainment system and an optional 8.8-inch colour headup display. Like other Australian Ferraris, the Roma comes with seven years of free scheduled maintenance with intervals of 20,000km or 12 months. Throughout the first half of the year, Ferrari has sold 110 combined units, down 9.1 percent on the 121 it managed to the same point last year. – Robbie Wallis

During this time of hibernation, together with cold weather, many of us have had to find different ways to exercise, and maybe found more time to do so! For me, that means doing a little walking every day on my treadmill, so my brain remembers how to (it can be forgetful at times and plays tricks on me!). It was on one such occasion that I came up with an idea! Why didn’t I sing (badly) to overrule that pesky brain! Then I came upon a terrific YouTube clip, and so this is what I have been proclaiming over my family and community – and that includes YOU! The Lord bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you. The Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace. May His favour be upon you and a thousand generations, and your family and your children, and their children, and their children. May His presence go before you, and behind you, and beside you. All around you and within you. He is with you. In the morning, in the evening, in your coming, and your going, in your weeping and rejoicing. He is for you. Amen I encourage you to look up UK Blessing (There is an Australian one and many others!) and know that so many people the world over are singing this blessing over you, not just me.! And we have a BIG God, Who wants to bless YOU today! His passionate commitment to us guaranties this. Make yourself known to Him today, He is waiting for you.

Sport on hold REWARD: Bondi Lockdown in action at Stawell. Picture: CLAIRE WESTON

Bondi Lockdown a beauty H

BY TONY LOGAN

orsham owner-trainerdriver Aaron Dunn’s $20,000 APG Sales purchase Bondi Lockdown scored an impressive victory on debut at Laidlaw Park, Stawell.

The two-year-old colt started a heavily supported $1.80 favourite on the strength of a solid trial performance at Ballarat a fortnight earlier and did not let the punters down – although he gave them some anxious moments on the final bend. “Yes he did go very roughly for a bit. I’m not exactly sure why but

when he balanced up again, sprinted nicely to the line,” Dunn said. With Dunn holding the son of Somebeachsomewhere USA together around the turn, Bonnie Belle with Greg Sugars aboard had kicked eight metres clear and favourite backers were wondering if the bird had flown. They had little cause for concern however, as Bondi Lockdown quickly made up the margin and at the post was a half-length clear and running away from the leader with a further three lengths to the rest of the field. “We thought that he’s the best young horse we have had in the

stable for a long time. He’s been pretty much a natural right from the start,” Dunn said. Bondi Lockdown is set to race again at Terang tonight. “I didn’t really want to back him up again so quickly, but who knows what’s to come with the COVID-19 restrictions? He might even go for a bit of a break after that,” Dunn said. Dunn made it a double later in the afternoon when five-year-old gelding Vanity Bay led from barrier to post in a 2180-metre pace. Polkemmet owner Mike Ryan bought Vanity Bay for $1000 as a tried but un-raced conveyance.

“The horse had already been through a couple of stables before Mike saw him advertised,” Dunn said. Vanity Bay qualified to race at Ararat back in December and posted victories at Maryborough and Wedderburn from his first five starts then headed to the paddock for a spell. He resumed racing in June with a sub-par effort at Terang but in four outings since has notched up two wins at Stawell. “He’s done well with four wins from nine starts. It gets harder from here on though, we’ll have to see if he can keep measuring up,” Dunn said.

Most community indoor and outdoor sporting activities such as team training sessions are again out of action as part of a return of stage-three restrictions in regional Victoria. AFL Wimmera Mallee area manager Jason Muldoon was quick to inform sporting groups about the rules, clarifying that all community-sport training was banned. “That means that no training for football or netball is to be allowed,” he said. Under the sport-activity rules in place for at least the next six weeks, people can only exercise outdoors and take part in activities such as fishing, boating and surfing and playing golf or tennis with only one other person or household members. They must maintain a distance of at least 1.5 metres. Outdoor sporting facilities and centres are closed, except for facilities where people can adhere to public-gathering and physical-distancing limits and there is no use of shared equipment or communal facilities.

Gebert, Krahe triumphant Rhonda Gebert and Judy Krahe joined forces to triumph in a life members competition at Horsham Golf Club. The ladies returned a score of 142-152294 to win the 36-hole aggregate stroke event. Thirty-one pairs contested the annual two-day event. Sandra Savage, who sponsors the event alongside fellow life member Joyce Mills, presented the winners with prizes. Ladies captain Bev Price said golf continued to be a popular pastime across the Wimmera, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. “We’ve had excellent numbers at the

golf club. We haven’t had anything under 60 for any event since we’ve been back up and running after the shut down,” she said. Mrs Price said members were good at physically distancing in line with COVID-19 regulations and were enjoying an opportunity to socialise safely. She encouraged anyone interested in learning or playing golf to pay the club a visit. “On Mondays and Fridays we have a social group, which has been attracting about 30 players at a time,” she said. “If someone wants to start playing golf then the best time is during social golf, which is great for beginners.”

Ladies have been competing on Tuesdays and Thursdays but events are now on the backburner as the Wimmera awaits the introduction of stage-three COVID-19 restrictions tomorrow. Horsham club president Leo Delahunty said golfers would be permitted to play in groups of two provided they adhered to a 1.5-metre physical-distancing rule. He said he was awaiting further details about regulations and would inform members as soon as possible. He said golfers, staff and visitors had been wearing mandatory face masks since Monday. – Sarah Matthews

Thompson thrills M

BY KEITH LOFTHOUSE

ark Thompson has returned to Stawell and Ararat Cross Country Club, 21 years after winning the inaugural Thompson Family Handicap, sponsored by his parents, to win his second at Ararat’s McDonald Park on Sunday.

Between bookends, Thompson has proved to be one of the finest athletes Ararat has produced. He narrowly missed Olympic qualification for the 5000 metres at Sydney 2000, but has represented Australia 17 times in junior and senior competitions throughout the world. He still holds the Victorian record, set in 1993, for the under-18 fastest 5000 metres – a dazzling 14.09 minutes. Now 41, but looking years younger, Thompson conceded up to 30 minutes’ start to slower runners in the lung-sapping eight-kilometre event – which included four previous winners – and mowed them all down… if not without a scare! “I thought I’d overtaken all the front markers when I went past Sue Blizzard but 100 metres further on Shev Healy came into view and I’d completely forgotten about her,” Thompson said. He thought he had left his run too late, but

Healy was throwing out distress signals by looking left and right over her shoulder just as the speedster was firing up the after burners. Typically, the too quick will always over-run the too tired and at the last turn, 200 metres from the finish, Thompson stormed to the lead and sprinted away to score by a margin of 27 seconds in a sparkling time 30.27 minutes. Teenage rookie Gabe Tonks glided smoothly into third place and has a promising future. “The glory days are over, but I still get a buzz out of pushing hard, doing the best I can and staying happy and healthy,” Thompson said. “I’m out of bed at 5.30am every morning with my head lamps on to train in the dark with running mates Paul Fenn and Jade Merrett. I’ve known Paul for most of my life and we’ve talked about doing a couple of marathons together. I’ve never been right at my top for a marathon before so that gives me something to aim for.” The Thompson was the last of the club’s COVID-curtailed season. The three races were all won by mature-aged schoolteachers. The lesson in that for students, lapsed footballers and netballers is that sporting lives don’t need to end in the mid-30s. The club boasts five veterans between the ages 69 and 77.

Lloyd impressive in WAFL debut Horsham export Matty Lloyd kicked a goal in his West Australian Football League debut for West Perth at the weekend. Lloyd, 19, headed west to pursue his football dream in July. Coach Geoff Valentine said Lloyd played predominantly on the wing and at half-forward in

the Falcons’ 93-point win over Peel Thunder. “Matty had 13 touches and five marks in a really pleasing debut. I hope it’s the start of bigger things for him,” he said. The Falcons meet arch-rival East Perth on Saturday and Valentine is confident Lloyd is up for the challenge.

New chapter Holly McKechnie of Horsham has made a promising start as a horse trainer after her debut runner, six-year-old Chat Up, came fourth at Donald on Saturday. McKechnie, a jockey for more than a decade, has moved into the training side of the sport while working in the stables of Paul Preusker. She said she was enjoying the challenge and opportunity to maintain a day-to-day involvement with horses and would now give Chat Up a rest for two weeks between runs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He got to the line nicely and hopefully he continues to improve and can get some places,â&#x20AC;? she said. McKechnie is pictured with Chat Up and stablehand Colton Preusker after the debut run. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER
