UP FOR THE CHALLENGE: Laharum Football Netball Club A Grade coach Erin Mellington, front, leads fellow Demons in punching out a few push-ups at Cameron Oval. The club has signed up for this month’s Push-Up Challenge, designed to shine a light on mental-health issues and raise money for support services, primarily headspace Horsham. Club leaders will run a group push-up session for footballers and netballers once training resumes, in line with COVID-19 restrictions. Groups, clubs and workplaces throughout the Wimmera-southern Mallee have signed up for the challenge, which involves completing 3318 push-ups in 25 days. For more, see page 7.

Sport on the edge A

BY DEAN LAWSON

nxious sporting organisations across the Wimmera-Mallee remained in a holding pattern last night as they waited on State Government word for any changes to COVID-19 restrictions.

Anxiety surrounded what opportunities if any would present themselves in regional Victoria in time for the Queen’s Birthday long weekend and further into almost half-completed winter sporting seasons. Latest restrictions, while less severe than in Melbourne, had brought football, netball, hockey and indoor sports to a grinding halt. It left administrators with an unenviable task of navigating clubs and competitions through the rest of 2021. To late yesterday, Horsham District Football Netball League leaders had already made a decision to postpone all round-seven games, including juniors, which had been rescheduled for this weekend. Wimmera Football Netball League’s

board, which had also pencilled in a round of games this weekend, met last night to consider options based on club feedback and direction. Volleyball Victoria Country Championships, involving a major influx of competitors from across the state, were also originally planned for this weekend. Officials have postponed the event until September. Wimmera Hockey Association had yet to confirm any games this weekend, pending a meeting tomorrow night to discuss options. And Mininera and District Football League officials met last night amid broad understanding they would call off fixtures this weekend. Sport, particularly week-to-week mainstream winter sport, has long had recognition as a heartbeat for regional communities. Many recognise its value for mental as well as physical and social community health. Horsham district league chair Fred Mellington provided insight into the impact the COVID-19 pandemic and

lockdowns had on his organisation. “It is a very corrosive situation that relentlessly chews at volunteer administrations,” he said. “The impact is felt at all levels, from the player on the ground to the people overseeing clubs, leagues and regions.” Mr Mellington said his league had some ‘wriggle room’ to manipulate its draw and had postponed this weekend’s round based on uncertainty. “Round-seven games will push forward to the next available week. All we’ve done is rejigged the draw to ensure teams play each other once,” he said. “With all the uncertainty, the decision was in the interest of all concerned – from catering, rostering and general logistics surrounding what’s involved in bringing communities together. It was simply the right thing to do. “We look forward to the opportunity for us all to get back into it and continue to remain positive to get our sea-

son back on track as soon as possible.” Wimmera league chair Pauline Butler said before last night’s board meeting that round-eight fixtures were still tentatively scheduled for the weekend, but all would depend on restrictions and club direction. “We will be guided a lot by the clubs and try to do what is best for our league,” she said. “It’s been a little bit tough, but that’s the nature of the beast we have at the moment and perhaps for many years to come. We must be innovative and adaptive in this environment.”

Junior competition

Considerable debate has surrounded outdoor junior sport, which can proceed under the latest guidelines. But organisation needs significant logistical manoeuvring in competitions that involve crossover of adult and junior participation and volunteers and crowd numbers limited to 50 people. Mr Mellington said under the rules it was impossible for the league to run games involving several junior

football and netball teams needing to travel across the region. “Our juniors and seniors are one and the same and we cover considerable distances. It’s not like in the middle of Melbourne where you can just drop kids off at a venue or where kids in a large town can rock up on their bikes to a game without mum or dad,” he said. “Every weekend we’re a travelling family community.” Ms Butler said junior competition was a major consideration in assessing what steps her league might take. “Children’s mental health and wellbeing is critically important in all of this and getting them back to some sort of normality is very important,” she said. She urged clubs to monitor social media sites for updates. Indoor sports such as basketball, gymnastics, calisthenics, squash, table tennis and swimming were still out of action late yesterday as part of regional restrictions.

Tree-removal anxiety P

BY DEAN LAWSON

lans to remove 37 ageing sugargum trees along Horsham’s Natimuk Road has sparked an immediate outcry.

Natimuk Road resident Doug Cordell, 77, has written to Horsham Rural City Council expressing his ‘concern and dismay’ at the plans. He has gone as far as calling the tree-removal project, based on public safety concerns, as ‘wanton environmental vandalism’. The council has identified the stand of trees between Hillary Street and Bennett Road ‘to be in very poor condition, with exposed damaged roots, internal decay and dead branches throughout the canopy’. Council chief executive Sunil Bhalla said contractors would carry out the works from Monday. “An independent arborist has assessed the trees and deemed them unsafe in an area where there is a lot of vehicular and pedestrian traffic,” he said. “They are also causing problems with the road pavement. “Our trees and environment staff have identified Angophora costata as replacement trees. These are a medium-sized evergreen tree with a pinkish trunk, very nice form and a root system that should not be too intrusive

to the road pavement in the future. We have planted these trees in Wilmoth Avenue in Horsham and have found them to be structurally very sound.” The council has informed residents that contractors will remove about six trees a day and will start planting replacements as soon as possible. Horsham mayor Robyn Gulline stressed that independent tree assessment had found them to be a danger to pedestrians, cyclists and motorists. “That’s why they are being removed and replaced with more appropriate species. The safety and wellbeing of the community is a council priority,” she said.

Letter

Mr Cordell said in his letter to the council that when he came to Horsham in 2009 he bought his property on the strength of the tree-lined avenue. He said he was concerned about what he believed was a lack of community consultation about the tree-removal project and was unconvinced the trees presented a safety issue. “Apart from my personal dismay, take into account the shade these trees provide, the cooling effect the tree crowns provide, the bird habitat – of an evening, the bird population settling in for the night is an experience,” he said. “I have also witnessed over the past three years, rosellas using the small

hollows for successful breeding. Let’s not forget the wind factor. With a southerly breeze, Natimuk Road can be a very windy thoroughfare. With no trees to slow it down, the road will become a wind tunnel. “You say these trees will be replaced with Angophora costata – smooth-barked apple. This is indeed a lovely tree, however it is native to the area north of Sydney through to Queensland with a much more reliable annual rainfall – 500-1000mm – than we in the Wimmera can offer. In fact, Angophora is classified as sub-tropical. “On the subject of shade, council replaced a mature shade tree outside my residence in 2016. I am still looking at a sapling less than two metres in height. How long will it be before this tree gives equivalent shade? “I have observed the median strip trees west of Hillary Street over the past 11 years – yes one day they will provide shade and shelter and they will beautify the area. But not for some time yet. “I fully understand that in our climate tree roots go looking for moisture and can invariably cause problems. I also understand technology can overcome these problems without destruction. “Okay, mistakes were made in the past with the choice of trees, have we

DISAPPOINTED: Doug Cordell is upset Horsham Rural City Council will remove an avenue of sugar-gum trees from Natimuk Road in Horsham. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER not out-grown the mentality of simply removing something that has become inconvenient? “I beg you to reconsider this environmental vandalism. A fly-over of Horsham will show that apart from the riparian avenues and official parks-gardens, there are very few mature trees to be seen. “This could possibly explain why this area is so windy and dusty. “On a more personal note, I am 77 and if this destruction goes ahead as planned, you condemn me to a shadeless, wind-tunnel desert for the rest of

my life.” The council removed several sugar gums from the Natimuk Road plantation, which has been an iconic western-entrance landmark to Horsham for decades, in the late 2000s after VicRoads identified the trees as a traffic hazard. The sugar gum, eucalyptus cladocalyx, is endemic to areas of South Australia and its fast-growing nature, termite resistance and adaptability has led to its use as firewood, shelter, construction material and parklands in temperate Australia.

City calls out for youth councillors Horsham Rural City Council is calling out to youth across the region to join a leadership team to be a voice for young people in 2021 and beyond. The Horsham Youth Council is seeking 20 members to advocate for issues affecting young people. Young people who join the council will have an opportunity to enhance outcomes for youth in Horsham through collaboration, actively engaging youth development and participation. Youth councillor Armani Scollary, 15, said joining the council offered a wealth of benefits. “I mostly joined because it would look good on my resume – that was my original thought,” she said. “But, I knew it would be a great opportunity to meet different people and get involved with the community, which is something I’ve always taken an interest in. “Getting to help people and have a say in what we do around our community, that’s mainly why I joined.” Armani said she had enjoyed be-

coming more involved in the community, including fundraising. “I also got to do leadership programs, at the start of last year, and we’re going to do a few more,” she said. “I got to learn a whole bunch, about me as a leader and how I do things. “I also learnt about working with other people and communicating with adults as well, which is a really important skill.” Armani said she often encouraged her friends and classmates to consider applying for the council. “I always talk about what a great opportunity it’s been and how good it would be to get involved with it – how many skills you get out of it and how many new people you can talk to and connections you can form,” she said. “I’m not very interested in politics at the moment, but I assure you, I will be pretty soon.” Applications are open online at http://bit.ly/HRCCyouth until June 30 for people aged 12 to 25.

Comfort and convenience Wimmera-Mallee people are becoming much more savvy in understanding efficient and convenient options available to them when it comes to controlling the climate in the home. As if we needed to remind anyone, we’re in a part of Australia that experiences extremes in temperatures. Summers can be long, dry and particularly hot and on the other side of the scale winters can be bleak, damp and extremely cold. In the old days many of us had few options. We would install an old-fashioned and probably inefficient heater to deal with winter’s chill and make do with everything from fans to high-energy consuming coolers or nothing at all to combat the heat of summer. We have traditionally always seemed to need two or more of something to do the one job – control temperature in the home throughout the year. But times have changed significantly – and for the better. We can now enjoy the diversity of the wonderful changing seasons of the Wimmera without sacrificing our ability to stay either warm or cool. The answer has come in reverse-cycle air-conditioning, where the household heater and cooler operate as one and are just as good in dealing with excessive heat or cold. And it is Daikin Australia, a world

leader and trusted name in reverse-cycle air-conditioning that sets a benchmark in cost-effective product efficiency. Fortunately, people across western Victoria have little need to travel great distances to get access to this type of outstanding temperature-controlling system. Daikin ducted reverse-cycle heater-cooler systems, complete with inverter technology and with units from seven to 25 kilowatts, are readily available at Wade’s in Horsham. Wade’s, a business that understands from generations of family experience about the region’s variable temperatures, is a Super Daikin dealer. As such, they offer full after-sales support and general knowhow for new and existing units and challenge anyone to find better pricing. There is plenty to like about Daikin ducted units. Apart from being backed with a five-year parts and labour warranty, they are certified Australian made and specifically designed and manufactured to perform in Australian conditions – and that well and truly includes the Wimmera, Mallee and Western District. What’s not to like? And what could be more practical? Refrigerated heating and cooling in the one system is an obvious choice for the practical-minded householder or property investor. Wade’s are quick to point out that the initial cost of a Daikin

They have also outlined how a Daikin system, which requires minimal maintenance and servicing, represents the perfect choice for complementing adaptation with a solar-power system to offset running costs. The technology surrounding finger-tip control with Daikin systems are second to none with a vast range of different target-

ing systems such as zoning, program-timing, smartphone or tablet WIFI operations are all available. For many, now represents a perfect time to update a conventional ducted system to the latest Daikin inverter unit. It can be a smart move – potentially decreasing running costs by up to 46 percent. A major parts failure such as a compressor or something similar in an old unit might also be the trigger you need to switch over to the latest in Daikin technology.

How valuable is piece of mind? It’s easy to find out more. Just contact Wade’s and let them take the stress out of knowing which system to choose. They can present a free no-obligation proposal and a custom-designed system to suit your home and budget. Wade’s are the leading choice for builders in the Wimmera region to supply and install ducted split systems.

DAIKIN DUCTED Heating & Cooling Solutions A Daikin ducted system provides discreet air conditioned comfort throughout your entire home. It can be installed in a new home or tailored to suit an existing one, and once installed, only the controller, the return air and discharge grilles are visible inside your home.

Plea for Edenhope childcare plan A

“I can’t return to work, we have a school teacher who is seriously considering not returning to work and businesses are closing. We’re losing out in every possible way. We are losing businesses, we are losing skilled people and families from the region”

BY DYLAN DE JONG

mother of two is concerned she and other parents will be unable to return to work if Edenhope remains without childcare services. Shelley Hartle has joined a group of Edenhope district parents who are advocating for more childcare options. The one person who was working under Uniting Wimmera to provide family day care services to Edenhope announced her resignation early last week. The worker cared for four children each day and three after school. Ms Hartle is on maternity leave from her role as Edenhope and District Memorial Hospital’s executive assistant and is due to return early next year. She said it would be a major challenge to return to work if the childcare issue remained unsolved. “I’m on maternity leave with a 12-week-old baby and a two-yearold in the middle of a lockdown and I don’t have any opportunity for a break,” she said. “The other impact on my family is on my partner who is trying to start his own small business. It’s impacting him and his ability to work too.” A parent-led community survey in the town showed there were 38 children who required family day care services. The survey showed the number would increase to 41 by the end of this year. Ms Hartle said the impact of losing childcare services was felt right across the community. “I can’t return to work, we have a school teacher who is seriously con-

sidering not returning to work and businesses are closing,” she said. “We’re losing out in every possible way. We are losing businesses, we are losing skilled people and families from the region.” Dozens of parents in the town are asking West Wimmera Shire Council to fund a feasibility study and business plan for childcare options in Edenhope. Ms Hartle said the parents group made a budget submission for $50,000 to develop the plans. “We as parents decided to take it upon ourselves. We’re asking the council to build a business case that will attract a provider to come and run it,” she said.

“We are not asking the council to build a centre and run it, we’re just asking them to take the issue seriously.” The parents group, hospital and Edenhope P-12 College have identified possible locations where childcare services could be run to address the issue in the long term. Ms Hartle said a council-owned senior citizens club room in Edenhope, which was for sale, could be a viable location.

Provider

Uniting’s Victoria north and west general manager Annette Kelly-Egerton said the organisation hoped it could find a replacement family day

care educator for Edenhope within six to eight weeks. “We want to assure the affected families and the broader community that we are working as hard as we can to attract more family day care educators,” she said. Mrs Kelly-Egerton said Uniting was working closely with key employers, including the council and hospital, to recruit family day carers to the region. “We’re asking locals who have the necessary qualifications and are interested in a career in childcare to get in contact with us,” she said. West Wimmera mayor Bruce Meyer said the council would discuss the matters in its monthly meeting today. “The councillors will probably have

COVID vaccines: Public Q&A with Dr Rob Grenfell Horsham Rural City Council will host a Coronavirus information webinar with esteemed health physician and former Wimmera General Practitioner Dr Rob Grenfell on Thursday night.

different opinions – there’s no doubt there’s a need, but that need is right across all towns of the Wimmera,” he said. “The reality is, that’s not an easy thing for council to run and we are not the provider – Uniting is.” Cr Meyer said retaining workers was a key issue in running childcare services in the town of 946 people. “The difficulty is getting qualified people to work. The ratio is normally one to four, so if you have 32 children, you need eight workers and if one of them gets sick, you’ve got to have a back up. It’s not straight forward,” he said. Hospital chief executive Andrew Saunders said the council and Uniting had an obligation to find a solution. “We need to know what the shire and Uniting’s obligation to provide day care is. If neither of those organisations want to do it, then they need to release that funding to an organisation that will,” he said. “The shire has done a lot of work around what the needs are to improve liveability in a small community and one of those things is childcare.”

“It is important that people are provided with correct information about COVID and vaccines. This is why we have involved Dr Grenfell in engaging with community members throughout this process,” Cr Gulline said. “This is an opportunity for our community to hear from a genuine expert when it comes to COVID-19,” she said. Dr Grenfell is a public health physician and is the director of the CSIRO’s Health and Biosecurity Business Unit. He leads a broad portfolio covering nutrition, e-health, medical technology and diagnostics and biosecurity from weeds to Ebola. Dr Grenfell was a member of the Safety and Quality Outcomes Committee of the Hospital Innovation Reform Council, a member of the Victorian Quality Council, Chair of General Practice Victoria and Member of the Health Advisory Committee of the National Health and Medical Research Council. Council will also reconvene the local agencies network to discuss the effective promotion and rollout of COVID vaccines and other current COVID issues.

Contradictions!

hen we finally feel confident enough to say we have successfully emerged from the COVID-19 pandemic there will be opportunities to assess all that has happened.

In relative terms, we hope we’re in a position to say that everything considered, we’ve done quite well. Of course, this will be of cold comfort to the people who have lost friends or relatives or seen them crippled by the disease and-or businesses that have failed to survive the economic turmoil. Our leaders would no doubt be, if they haven’t started already, putting all the protocols, procedures, responses and messaging surrounding the pandemic under the microscope for examination. Perhaps sitting somewhere in the list for consideration should be the heading ‘avoidable contradictions’. Sitting in the middle of regional Victoria, contradictions in rules, directions and methodology in keeping ourselves safe from the virus might seem more obvious to us than our metropolitan counterparts. Perhaps not. It’s when many minor contradictions come together that they can ultimately threaten confidence in a system. Examples quickly form off the top of the head. Under regional restrictions, children can attend face-to-face learning in schools and classrooms are full. Yet in many regional communities, a handful of children from the same classroom can’t participate in indoor sport and activities. Hmm! Teachers are often perhaps in a room of more than 20 children at a time. But in the rush to vaccinate priority and emergency workers, do they qualify to jump the Pfizer vaccine queue? Not if

they’re under 40. Again, hmm! Let’s turn to government efforts to financially support small businesses struggling to cope with immediate downturns in trade. No worries – unless you’re a sole trader and don’t qualify because you generate less than a tax threshold of $75,000 a year. A business-support package that doesn’t support some of the hardest-hit businesses? Hmm! This all points to one of the great revelations of the COVID-19 pandemic in how important it is for our political leaders to have clear comprehension and understanding of how societies operate ‘on the ground’ regardless of where people live. There can at times seem to be a severe lack of basic knowledge about how parts of the state differ from each other, something perhaps more obvious during the pandemic. We have three tiers of government as a safeguard to ensure we have a strong enough understanding of the country to cover our governance bases. We’ve touched on a perception that our state and federal governments struggle with their relationship. But we wonder, when it comes to understanding circumstances on the ground, again especially in the regions, how well our State Government in particular uses resources at hand from local government – the government closest to the people – in making decisions.

RAISING AWARENESS: Function Therapy staff, from left, Sarah Wilson, Kim Hyslop, Tammy Barber and Alyssa Armytage are among Wimmera businesses completing the Push-Up Challenge this month. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

‘352 legends’ register for challenge Headspace Horsham leaders are thrilled with early support for the Push-Up Challenge, with teams from across the Wimmera-southern Mallee pledging money and support for the youth mental-health centre. The physical challenge, which involves participants completing 3318 push-ups in 25 days, is designed to shine a light on suicide prevention and raise money for mental-health support services. Participants can choose a beneficiary for their fundraising, with 42 groups, schools, clubs or businesses, plus individuals, choosing headspace Horsham. Client services officer Andrea Coxon said any money donated to headspace Horsham would go directly back into the community. “We are sitting at $14,086 so far raised for our community, thanks to the 352 legends who have registered this year, in support of mental health, along with the family and friends

supporting those people who have registered,” she said. She said it was fantastic to have so many regional teams participating in the national challenge. “We are absolutely blown away by the number of registrations from businesses, schools and sporting clubs around our community,” she said. “Obviously thanks to ACE Radio for getting on board, along with organisations including CHS Group Wimmera and Skillinvest.” Ms Coxon said Laharum, Edenhope-Apsley and Southern Mallee Giants football netball clubs were quick to sign up for the challenge. “Also registering of late we’ve got the Nhill A Grade netball team, Ararat football team and we believe Team Burra is also jumping on board,” she said. “We know how important our physical health ties into our mental health, so it is fantastic to see F45 Horsham

and Snap Fitness Horsham on board. “From our schools, we have a massive contingent from Holy Trinity Lutheran College, they’ve smashed it out again this year. There’s also Donald High School, Horsham College and Goroke P-12 College. “We can’t go past all the other little teams also getting involved, whether they be family or friends. But if you are involved and you’d like a shoutout, get in contact with us because we’d love to support you through the journey of the challenge.” Ms Coxon said the target of 3318 push-ups represented the number of people who died by suicide in 2019. “The 3318 push-ups is a very significant number – it’s also a very significant and alarming increase from the 3046 people who died by suicide in 2018,” she said. Ms Coxon said people could visit thepushupchallenge.com.au for more information or to sign up. – Sarah Matthews

AVONBANK PROJECT NEWSLETTER ISSUE 7 – JUNE 2021

PROJECT UPDATE

The next webinar is scheduled for 16th June and will cover Economic Impact Assessment and Surface Water Impact Assessment results. To watch the webinar live, you will need to pre-register.

WIM Resource Pty Ltd (WIM) is pleased to advise that the bulk earthworks and contouring of the Avonbank Project test pit site was successfully completed during the last quarter. This enabled standard farming machinery to seed a crop, which has now been undertaken by local farmers. As part of the rehabilitation, detailed post-mining soil studies were also completed by an independent soil scientist to assist in understanding the effectiveness of the pre-mining soil stripping, and post-mining soil treatment and replacement of sub and topsoils. Feasibility related studies including definitive engineering, water supply, power supply, transport and mine design are continuing, with a view to the completion of a Definitive Feasibility Study by the end of 2021. This will enable the company to commence a funds raising process for the project, as well as continue related EES and mining approvals. In June, WIM will hold the third webinar in the series on the Avonbank Project, as well as other community engagement initiatives. WIM is also pleased to announce the sponsorship of the Teacher Earth Science Education Program (TESEP). This program supports secondary school science teachers and, as part of this, WIM has sponsored the provision of a Rock Kit to Dimboola Secondary College and one other school in Victoria.

Community Reference Group (CRG) The first in-person meeting was held in April at the Horsham Golf Club. It is planned to continue with inperson meetings in the future subject to COVID-19 restrictions. Images from the test pit rehabilitation include: gypsum being applied to sub soil (left, top) and grading and ripping of sub soil (left, bottom), final rehabilitated site (above, left) and Christian Bannan inspecting a trench (above, right).

SPONSORSHIP OF THE TEACHER EARTH SCIENCE EDUCATION PROGRAM (TESEP) WIM has made a small sponsorship for the Teacher Earth Science Education Program (TESEP). This program supports secondary school science teachers and, as part of this, WIM has sponsored the provision of a Rock Kit to Dimboola Secondary College, as well as one other school in Victoria. Rock Kits are a collection of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary specimens safe for students to handle and study, with information about their source and formation. With the growth of gold mining, exploration, and emerging mineral sands projects in the region, and the importance of Sciences, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) subjects in schools, WIM is pleased to play a small part in supporting the TESEP in regional Victoria and looks forward to further development of its relationship with TESEP.

Horsham Office The office at 62 Darlot Street has been manned sporadically over the last two months. If the flag is out visitors are welcome to call in – please do and browse project information, ask questions, or provide comments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS) and Factsheets All questions and comments on the Avonbank Project and assessment studies undertaken as part of the EES process, and the responses provided by WIM, are recorded and are available on our website under the Avonbank EES dropdown menu in Documents and Presentations. Hard copies can also be obtained from the Horsham Office. Questions and comments may be submitted via the online ‘Get In Touch’ form, by phone, or via email Details are located in the Contact dropdown menu on the website. Additional Factsheets covering the various Impact Assessment Studies will be developed as the assessments are completed.

Presentations to Community Groups WIM has commenced short presentations to individual community groups, and these can be arranged on request at a date and time that suits both parties.

TEST PIT REHABILITATION UPDATE During the quarter, WIM completed the bulk earthworks with a local Horsham team from Garraway Group, as well as drawing upon other local service providers including surveyors, diesel suppliers, site office suppliers, and diesel mechanics. The final landform was reinstated such that it was as close to the pre-mining landform as practically possible, and such that it would enable standard farming equipment to operate across the whole site. Gypsum was added to assist with the overall rehabilitation efforts, and the sub soil and topsoil profiles were carefully placed back over the land in the same order as they were stripped originally. WIM engaged Christian Bannan, an independent soil scientist, to excavate of several small trenches across the test pit area to allow visual inspection and physical logging of the reinstated soil profile. Samples were taken for analysis to allow for a comparison against the pre-mining soil conditions of the site and the results are still being assessed.

STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT WIM continues to ensure the local community and other stakeholders are updated on progress on the Avonbank Project, despite limitations related to COVID-19.

Mayor: Need for balanced solution H

BY DEAN LAWSON

orsham mayor Robyn Gulline has spoken of a need to help find an appropriate solution if a new major manufacturer in the rural city loses a bid to dispose of wastewater at Quantong.

Cr Gulline said the success of Australian Plant Proteins in finding a way to effectively manage its wastewater represented a challenge and important part of industrial development in the municipality. “Putting all the very important and detailed planning issues aside for a moment, there are a couple of big-picture issues here,” she said. “One is that the health of our communities, socio-economic, physical or environmental, must be paramount in council thinking and direction. “The other is that we must be able to accommodate and encourage large-scale agricultural value-adding enterprises to establish here. “We are in the heart of one of the most productive broadacre agricultural areas in the country. “In moving forward we must have the ability to quickly manoeuvre to meet development opportunities, but at the same time do this without compromising our communities. It is about finding the balance.” The future of a project to establish a Water Sustainability Farm in Lanes Road, Quantong, primarily to take and treat salty water from Australian Plant Proteins factory in Horsham, is in the hands of Environment Protection Authority Victoria. The authority is assessing circumstances after organising an independently led community conference at Quantong last week. Expectations are that the authority will announce a decision next month. Water Sustainability Farm initially proposed to

“In moving forward we must have the ability to quickly manoeuvre to meet development opportunities, but at the same time do this without compromising our communities. It is about finding the balance” – Robyn Gulline

manage two APP waste streams at the Quantong site – an average of 57,000 litres of brine and up to 5000 kilograms a day of dewatered sludge compost. The business proposed to concentrate the brine through solar evaporation in four drying basins and dry the compost sludge in windrows on a drying pad. Developers have since modified plans to consider an alternative disposal method for the sludge, a value-adding waste product created from the process of developing Wimmera-grown plant-protein powder. They also announced a willingness to change truck access into the site. But a group of Quantong residents remain unmoved in strong opposition to the project. The group has consistently raised concerns about the site’s impact on the environment, property values, lifestyle and the future of farm and tourism business opportunities. Members have vowed to continue to fight the development regardless of the EPA decision. The project will also need a council planning permit to proceed. Blossoming demand for plant-based protein powder has led to millions of investment dollars flowing into Horsham-based Australian Plant Proteins, set to lift its workforce to about 50. But the future of the company’s tenure or expansion in Horsham might hinge on finding a suitable solution for its wastewater.

Learner driver tests go online

rospective learner drivers in the Wimmera will join others across the state in being able to take their learner-driver permit test any time and anywhere.

The State Government has accelerated its Learner Permit Test Online system. More than 10,000 aspiring young drivers who have had to postpone their learner’s test due to COVID-19 circuit-breaker restrictions have priority access to register for the online test. Authorities have assured them they will not have to wait weeks to re-book. The new Learner Permit Test Online opened to all learner drivers from across the state on Monday. The new test includes a mix of theory, interactive videos and visual graphics to reinforce road-safety messages, with mini quizzes to progressively test learners’ knowledge. This comes through learning modules focusing on road-safety education including speed, drink and drug driving, seatbelts, fatigue, distractions and road rules. To access the test, learner drivers will need to create a myVicRoads personal account and have access to a compatible electronic device. Expectations are the course and test will take

between four and six hours to complete, with prospective learners having 12 months to sit and pass the test after registering. When the learner drivers have successfully completed their online course and assessment, they will need to attend a VicRoads Customer Service Centre – depending on restrictions – to confirm their identity, have their photo taken and complete an eyesight check. The government has rolled out the Learner Permit Test Online in stages across Victoria since April this year, with statewide access originally scheduled for late June. Outside coronavirus restriction periods, customers can still sit the Learner Permit Test in person at VicRoads Customer Service. Roads Minister Ben Carroll said the government had worked hard behind the scenes to accelerate the statewide roll-out of the new Learner Permit Test Online. “Hundreds of young drivers have already successfully passed the test online from the comfort of their own home – and good luck to all sitting the test in the coming weeks,” he said. People can find out more about the Learner Permit Test Online at website vicroads.vic.gov. au.

Councils seek renewables contract BY DYLAN DE JONG

ore Wimmera councils plan to join a major renewable energy purchasing agreement to tackle climate change and cut costs.

Yarriambiack and Northern Grampians Shire councils indicated they would be prepared to join a Victorian Energy Collaboration, VECO, when their current energy contracts ended. Ararat and Horsham rural cities have joined 46 other municipal councils in the agreement, which regional leaders believe will help shape Victoria’s future with renewable energy. VECO, which involves participating councils tapping into electricity generated by Murra Warra II wind farm and Dundonnell wind farm near Mortlake, is the largest emissions-reduction local government project in Australian history. The arrangement, through retailer Red Energy, involves councils pooling their energy contracts into a renewable-energy deal for the equivalent

power needed to power 45 percent of all Victorian council electricity needs. Yarriambiack chief executive Jessie Holmes said she hoped the council could join the partnership when its energy contract ended early next year. “Darebin Shire Council, one of the leading councils in this project, and Murra Wurra Wind Farm, were both very keen for us to be involved, given Murra Warra is in our shire footprint,” she said. “However, it is a timing issue. We have to wait until the end of our existing contract before we can enter a new contract.” Ms Holmes said the agreement would help the council reach its obligations under State Government policy framework to reduce its carbon footprint. “It is no longer a question of whether or not climate change is real,” she said. “We’ve got a responsibility from a community perspective to show leadership around how we can reduce emissions.”

Ararat and Horsham municipal leaders expect the power agreement would help the councils save ‘significantly’ on annual electricity bills. Horsham chief executive Sunil Bhalla said he expected VECO would save the council up to $100,000 each year. The deal is for 240 GWh of electricity over a period of nine and a half years, starting on July 1, 2021. From the starting date, councils will power council-owned infrastructure from renewable energy, including streetlights and sport and community facilities. Ms Holmes said higher costs traditionally associated with renewable energy were a deterrent for the council to change its energy arrangements in the past. “A lot of the resilience in the past was because it was more expensive to go green – those financial barriers aren’t there anymore,” she said. “It makes it easier for us to make the decision to join this agreement, because it’s not a financial burden.”

“A lot of the resilience in the past was because it was more expensive to go green – those financial barriers aren’t there anymore” – Jessie Holmes

Ms Holmes said the energy agreement was just one of many emission reduction success stories emerging out of western Victoria. She was referring to a State Government Renewable Energy Zones plan that identified multi-million-dollar projects set to change the Wimmera into a renewable-energy hub. “The councils moving to renewable energy will be a tiny part of the jigsaw puzzle,” she said. “The bigger story will be if the western region can capitalise on those potential renewable-energy zone key projects with upgrading the transmission lines, the installation of synchronous condensers at Murra Warra and Horsham and industrial-sized batteries.”

FIVE-DAY forecast

“That’s where the big investment will be for us to become the energy provider for the state.” The State Government expects to announce a list of priority projects set to receive money this month. Northern Grampians mayor Murray Emerson said the council was also keenly looking to join the renewable power-purchase agreement. “At the moment, Northern Grampians Shire is not part of the renewable agreement – but we will certainly be having a look at it,” he said. “Renewables are the direction of the future. Any council would be negligent in their representation in the community if they weren’t considering all the benefits that could come from alternative energy.” Hindmarsh Shire Council opted out of an initial planning phase of the proposed renewable-energy powerpurchase agreement in 2019 due to contractual issues. It is reviewing potential power providers through a Procurement Australia tender process.

Leaders call on regional Victorians A

significant reduction in tourism in the Wimmera due to Melbourne’s extended lockdown has prompted industry leaders to launch a new online resource to support businesses. Grampians Tourism has launched an online portal showing accommodation availability in the region to encourage visitation while Melbourne remains in a circuitbreaker lockdown. Chief executive Marc Sleeman said the online portal listed all accommodation providers who had availability and were eager to welcome visitors to the Grampians. The website aims to streamline the booking process. “We are hoping our regional neighbours will show their support for the local businesses and embrace everything the Grampians has to offer,” Mr Sleeman said. “With the whole region theirs to explore,

“We are hoping our regional neighbours will show their support for the local businesses and embrace everything the Grampians has to offer” – Marc Sleeman

there’s no better time to visit.” Mr Sleeman said loss of Melbourne visitors over the Queen’s Birthday long weekend was a ‘huge blow’ for tourism operators who had already endured a devastating year of business in 2020. “Tourism operators throughout the Grampians were prepping for a big weekend over the Queen’s Birthday with the region fully booked, so it is dreadful to see them once again being rocked by the impacts of COVID-19,” he said. Mr Sleeman highlighted breathtaking

scenery, outdoor adventures, cultural sites and some of the state’s most celebrated food and wine as the Grampians’ biggest drawcard attractions. He stressed after a week confined to their homes, the fresh air, lush greenery and wide-open spaces found in the Grampians would be the perfect lockdown antidote for regional Victorians. Accommodation options in the new online portal are also wide-ranging to suit all preferences and budgets, including luxury accommodation, family holiday parks and cabins and unique camping and glamping experiences. People can visit www.visitgrampians. com.au/stay for a full list of accommodation providers. More information about the Grampians region is available online at visitgrampians. com.au.

St Brigid’s students return to stage Horsham St Brigid’s College students are preparing to return to the stage for the school’s first production since 2019. The college will present Midsummer Jersey at Horsham Town Hall from August 5 to 7. Teacher and director Vicki Thomas said rehearsals were progressing well, with a cast of about 35. Midsummer Jersey is a retelling of Shakespeare’s Midsummer Night’s Dream, set on the boardwalk of a seaside town in modern-day New Jersey. “It’s a contemporary version and it’s about four teens who basically all want to be in relationships with each other,” Mrs Thomas said. “It’s also positioned around the governor’s wedding. “Within all those relationships there are a whole lot of fairies that like to create a bit of mischief. “That mischief sees people fall in love with the wrong person, but in the end, it all gets fixed.” Mrs Thomas said the show was a play, rather than the musical style of performance the college had traditionally presented in the past. “We’ve added musical elements to it throughout, but we’ve decided to step away from musicals this year and are having a go at a play,” she said.

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER “The kids seem to be responding really well to it.” Mrs Thomas said the school was due to present Cinderella in 2020, but ‘obviously COVID put an end to that’. “Cinderella was all cast and ready to go, except a lot of the lead cast were year 12s, so we decided we’d leave that one be this year,” she said. “But I think this show opens up opportunities for kids who don’t necessarily like singing and dancing and all those sorts of things.

“There’s a big emphasis on characters and acting and having a bit of a go at something new and different.” Mrs Thomas said there were several lead roles, with cast split up into groups. “The four teen characters who have a fairly big role are Murphy Wright, Daniel Bell, Ella Officer and Ulani Hobbs,” she said. “Then we’ve got our main fairies, Zenith Wearne, who’s playing Oberon, Nadya Nugraha, playing Titania, they’re

the king and queen fairy, and we’ve got Grace Camilleri playing Puck.” Mrs Thomas said cast had almost finished the ‘blocking’ stage of the production, with a couple of scenes still to go. “We’ve got a few half-day rehearsals coming up,” she said. “Everything has come together and all going well I think we’ll be right to go, as long as they don’t lock us down or anything in the meantime.” – Sarah Matthews

Lockdown pushes COVID-19 mayors meeting VACCINATIONS W immera-Mallee mayors seeking discussions with Victorian Health Minister Martin Foley about regional health-care direction will need to plan for a rescheduled meeting.

The mayors from six municipalities hoped to gain assurances from Mr Foley in a meeting last week that any restructure proposals would strengthen instead of diminish services in western Victoria. Horsham mayor Robyn Gulline said the latest COVID-19 lockdown had ‘understandably bumped’ the meeting to a date yet to be determined. She said the provision of appropriate healthcare services in the region remained a priority for all communities and would ultimately need resolving. “It is very important, not just to Horsham, but also Wimmera and southern Mallee communities that we have the meeting as soon as practically possible after the latest COVID-19 crisis has settled,” she said. “We’re obviously disappointed as regional spokespeople to be bumped again, but fully understand a need to reschedule considering circumstances.” The group represents mayors from Horsham, Northern Grampians, Hindmarsh, Yarriambiack, West Wimmera and Buloke councils. A controversial proposal based on a formal merger between Wimmera Health Care Group and Ballarat Health Services, which has also

attracted interest from Stawell Regional Health and Edenhope and District Memorial Hospital, is at the core of concerns. The group considers the issue a ‘matter of urgency’ and has tried several times to arrange a meeting to discuss the issue with Mr Foley. Cr Gulline said the group’s position was that the region wanted a strong public health service ‘managed and controlled’ locally. She said a merger proposal between Wimmera groups and Ballarat Health Services to resolve issues surrounding service provision lacked substance. She said last month: “Where is the formal proposal? This is major change we’re talking about for a big chunk of Victoria and more than 65,000 people. As mayors representing our communities we feel our residents must be confident about their health services.” Wimmera health-care groups involved in partnership discussions are likely to know more about how a western Victorian health-service landscape might look and operate in the next few months.

Organisers were forced to set a new date when the State Government announced last week that although COVID-19 restrictions would ease, there would still be restricted numbers at gatherings. Horsham Church of Christ has offered its venue free of charge for the event. Organiser Faye Smith said the venue was ideal for the competition because students needed to isolate individually to prepare their impromptu speeches and the church had smaller rooms off a second auditorium. In past years the competition was in Legacy House in Wilson Street. Mrs Smith said parents and interested people were welcome to attend, subject to COVID restrictions on the day. Legatee Philip Nicks will emcee the event, which starts at 9.25am.

Wimmera Legacy has a new date and a new venue for this year’s Legacy Junior Public Speaking Award. Twenty students aged 12 to 14 years from seven schools across the Wimmera and southern Mallee will compete on Friday, June 25 for prize money and the opportunity to speak at a final in Bendigo or Ballarat before a state final in Melbourne in September. First place will receive $100, $50 for second and $30 for third, donated by sponsor Latus Jewellers. Each student will present a five-minute speech of their topic, which echoes Legacy’s ideals. They will later complete a two-minute impromptu speech on a topic set by the chief adjudicator. The students are from schools at Goroke, Ouyen, Kaniva, Nhill, Rainbow, Warracknabeal and St Brigid’s College, Horsham.

Allyship crucial in journey R

BY DYLAN DE JONG

e-imposed regional COVID-19 restrictions and event cancellations has prompted a Wimmera LGBTQI advocate to call on the community to support Pride Month.

Wimmera Pride Project treasurer Loucas Vettos stressed it was imperative individuals, organisations and community groups stood behind the LGBTQI community during pride celebrations. The group was forced to move its annual Pride Night celebrations, which coincide with the month, to July 23 after a seven-day circuitbreaker lockdown late last week. Mr Vettos encouraged the Wimmera to show its support for Pride Month this June despite the changes. “The more people who can support the pride project and the queer community, the more it will show that people care and the Wimmera is a safe space for the LGBTQI community,” he said. Pride Month is celebrated globally to honour the 1969 Stonewall Riots in Manhattan. A police raid in a gay club on June 28 prompted the LGBTQI community to fight back in what led to a six-day protest in the New York City borough. The riots served as a catalyst for a gay rights movement globally. Mr Vettos said modern Pride Month celebrations were an opportunity to peacefully protest and raise political awareness of issues facing the community. “In 2021, it is a celebration, but it

STAND WITH US: Wimmera Pride Project treasurer Loucas Vettos is calling on people to stand behind Pride Month despite restrictions and changes to the group’s annual Pride Night. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER should also be a time of reflection delving back into the history of why we have Pride Month,” he said. “The reason we have this month is because of the people who paved the way for us. People like Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera who started the whole thing and got us to where we are now. “It’s also an opportunity for organisations, corporations, sporting teams and individuals to represent their allyship.” Mr Vettos said the long-standing tradition represented an opportunity for Australia to continue its journey in becoming a safer place for LGBTQI people. “I feel like as a general population, people are happier to step out of the closet now than they were 10 or 20

years ago because there’s so much more acceptance,” he said. “But there’s also a lot of work to be done. “It was only recently in Australia that we’ve got marriage equality and there’s lots of debate around adoption in different states of Australia for same-sex partnerships.” Mr Vettos said education would be key in driving positive change. “That’s my biggest thing – it’s so easy to Google the Stonewall Riots or who Marsha P is, or what Pride Month is,” he said. “It’s not a big scary world and there’s no such thing as a stupid question. If you have a question, talk to your friends about it or talk to people in the queer community. “It’s about having ownership of

what you say and treating other people with respect, and I think there has definitely been more respect for the queer community.” Wimmera Pride Project committee worked had to program an evening of celebration with special guest drag artists Art Simone and Pashion Couture. Art Simone was a contestant on season one of RuPaul’s Drag Race Down Under. “The fact we have a safe place to play queer anthems and have performers just brings something extra to our community,” Mr Vettos said. “We would love for people to come and support our events. “We also have Queer Beers once a month and other events throughout the year. You don’t have to be part of the queer community to attend.”

Timetable change win for students Wimmera students will have more options to get to or from school in Ballarat with train services to better align with school bell times under a timetable change from the start of term three. The State Government has ‘listened to community feedback’ on January’s major timetable change and made some adjustments. One train service will change its departure time to accommodate school students, while another will have a stop added. From July 11, the mid-afternoon train from Southern Cross to Ararat will depart Ballarat Station 40 minutes later, at 4.04pm, giving students from Ararat and the Wimmera enough time to catch the service after school. The train will arrive in Ararat at 5.02pm, 22 minutes earlier than a bus that was put in place as a temporary solution, giving students more opportunities to get to extracurricular activities. Transport minister Ben Carroll said the change was important for Wimmera students. “We know how important these train services are for getting students to and from school, that’s why we made these important changes,” he said. “Delivering a timetable change on the scale of January’s was a big task – we said we’d listen to the community as we implemented the timetable and that’s exactly what we’ve done.” As a result of the changes, other Ararat services throughout the afternoon will be altered to maintain an even spread of services. The weekday timetables for six V-Line coach routes will be re-coordinated to maintain connectivity with train services on the Ararat and Ballarat lines. Passengers can check their new timetables online at vline.com.au from Friday.

n art project featuring the work of Ararat children will be a feature of the town’s art gallery for the next two months.

Ararat Gallery TAMA has established a dedicated art space to showcase 16 butterfly creations from Ararat Early Learning Centre artists. Centre owner Kerrie Turner said the children were learning about the life cycle of the monarch butterfly in term one, which inspired ‘The Butterfly Project’. “The project started because one of our early learning childhood teachers had monarch butterfly eggs laid in her backyard and she brought the plant to the centre,” she said. “From there the children were able to observe the butterflies develop through metamorphosis, starting with some little eggs, then caterpillars, to a chrysalis and finally an adult butterfly. “We incorporated a song about butterflies so the children could learn what metamorphosis was and see it in action. “We gave the children the opportunity to create their own butterflies out of recycled materials.” Ms Turner said the project received a positive response from families and the wider community, with students encouraging their families to visit the gallery. “Each and every creation is unique. The children know exactly which piece is theirs and had a chance to share their own interpretation of a butterfly. They look absolutely amazing,” she said. “It is so imperative that children are exposed to the arts at a young age because it is a way of being creative. “Children are so different in their personalities and can be so creative – it is important for their overall development.” Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison said he was pleased to

see the enthusiasm for the project, demonstrating people were drawn to Ararat stories and creativity. “I’d like to thank the gallery staff for their initiative to create a new space to support community art,” he said. “To complement its regular program, the gallery will partner with schools and local groups to create new artworks and projects that showcase their talents throughout the year. “With current exhibits celebrating our

rich wool heritage and the creativity and talent of our young people, we are showcasing Ararat as a proud, inclusive and vibrant community.” The Butterfly Project is on display until July 25. Ararat Gallery TAMA is working on a process to formally receive expressions of interests for a community wall.

VACCINATION PROGRAM UNDERWAY: Rural Northwest Health is working to establish a community vaccination clinic to ensure access to the COVID-19 vaccine in the region. The health service has spent the first few weeks of its vaccination program administering the first of two doses to staff and aged-care residents. Nurseunit manager Keisha Roche is pictured receiving her first dose from Maree Bell. In the coming weeks, the service will focus on administering the second dose to residents and team members. Staff will work in partnership with a Wimmera Health Care Group sub-hub and regional GPs ‘to ensure a well-organised roll-out’.

Group presents city oval precinct designs H

BY DEAN LAWSON

orsham councillors have had an opportunity this week to consider initial concept designs for a Horsham City Oval and Sawyer Park precinct redevelopment project.

A community reference group, which has been exploring and analysing details regarding the project for several months, released an initial draft to the councillors on Monday as part of a briefing process. Details will start becoming available to the community as part of the next stage of a community consultation process from today. The reference group, headed by Horsham Football Netball Club life-member Jeff Both, has explored future development of the area based on assets, traditional and future community engagement and use and feedback. The city oval and Sawyer Park precinct development project is one of seven projects in an overall Horsham Rural City Council City to River Masterplan. It represents a second stage of the masterplan after a River Activation Project, which is already underway. The precinct part of the development has attracted considerable community debate and speculation on how to best use the area that has long been a centrepiece of mainstream sport and recreation and community celebration in Horsham. Community ideas have ranged from radical overhauls such as re-orientating

the direction of the reserve’s primary sporting oval to simply exploring basic ways of better capitalising on public open-space in the precinct. The development has generated considerable public interest and debate, especially regarding changing the oval, which now appears unlikely to be among considerations. The reference group has worked on a series of objectives. These combine an exploration into ways of developing the area for more high-level sporting and community events as well as overall passive public access and a more inviting riverfront environment. Work from the community reference group will continue and involve further community consultation and submission opportunities.

Community driven

Horsham mayor Robyn Gulline said the concept plans would remain in the hands of the reference group until a need for council endorsement, most likely in October. “The project is very exciting. We had visionaries who for more than 50 years set up what we have and now an opportunity for the community for the visionaries for the future,” she said. “This project is very much community led and driven. We as councillors are simply the conduit for what the community wants to happen. “What’s been impressive is that user groups and community representatives have come together and come up with a plan with which they are all happy.”

Does your heel pain hold you back?

The reference group objectives are – • Maintaining the area’s sporting role and upgrade to meet all contemporary facility standards including universal design. • Increasing public access to and through the site by allowing greater permeability, removing fences, encouraging passive recreation and creating an inviting public realm and interface. • Improving integration of Horsham City Oval with surrounding areas including Sawyer Park, the riverfront and key pedestrian access routes to the city’s Central Activity District. • Upgrading Horsham City Oval as Horsham’s premier regional AFL-cricket venue and to a regional standard to enable it to host regional AFL and cricket sporting events and other non-sporting events. Upgrades are likely to include expansion of the size of the field, a new multi-purpose pavilion and covered spectator areas. A second netball court would assist in training and matches. • Recognising the role of Sawyer Park as an events space ensuring it is fit-forpurpose and meets future demand in activating the Wimmera River area. • Recognising the significance of Horsham Cenotaph and its future development. • Acknowledge the role of the miniature railway in activating the riverfront, and work with the Wimmera Live Steam and Model Engineering Society to explore design options and an ongoing operating model, as part of the next phase of the planning and design process.

QR codes ‘part of our life’ A Horsham business manager is reminding people the State Government’s mandatory Service Victoria QR requirements will be ‘part of our life for the future’. Horsham Plaza manager Allison Roberts said the conditions were challenging for everyone, ‘but rules are in place to keep us all safe’. Member for Lowan Emma Kealy joined Mrs Roberts at the plaza last week to clarify some queries from Horsham Plaza traders. “You have to QR code check-in at retail businesses, including supermarkets, even if only making a fleeting visit,” Ms Kealy said. “Businesses are obliged to offer an alternative if you don’t have a smart phone or otherwise can’t use a QR code – this can be an iPad to help you check in, or pen

and paper if necessary.” Customers must now check in whenever they attend a venue – a minimum of 15 minutes will no longer apply. Mrs Roberts said the plaza was adhering to the rules. “We want everyone to look after each other and be respectful to all,” she said. “QR codes are a part of our life for the future. “We also suggest to anyone with elderly parents, or family members who are not tech savvy, that they assist these people to put the Service Victoria App on their phones and give guidance on using the QR codes. “Some people might not have data on their phones and this might need to be addressed.”

Cold-case appeal H

omicide squad detectives are re-examining an investigation into a double murder-mystery in the Wimmera’s far west that has remained unsolved for three decades.

Victoria Police detectives are appealing for information into the murders of Fiona Burns, then 15, and John Lee, then 14. A husband and wife discovered the body of Ms Burns at a truck parking bay between Kaniva and Bordertown, about 1.6 kilometres from the South Australian border, on October 18, 1990. The couple notified police, who found the body of Mr Lee nearby a short time later. Examinations revealed both victims had been stabbed to death. Detectives said the teenagers were last seen hitch-hiking between Adelaide and Melbourne along the Western Highway between October 9 and 11, 1990. Police have received several calls and pieces of information from people in Victoria and South Australia over many years, however, have yet to make a breakthrough in the case. Senior Detective Constable Shadab Shery said despite an exhaustive investigation during the past 30 years, and many public appeals, police had never been able to find the person or people responsible for the teenagers’ deaths. “Police have not established a clear motive as to why Fiona and John were killed,” he said.

John Lee

Fiona Burns “A number of people have been interviewed during that time. “However, no one has been charged in relation to their deaths.” Sen Det Shery said investigators believed it was ‘highly’ likely there were still people in the community who had information about what happened to the murdered pair and who was responsible. “If you were in Bordertown between September 9 and October 18, 1990, and recall any details that might be pertinent to this case, please contact homicide squad,” he said. “Homicide squad detectives believe we have the ability to solve this case even after all this time. “I’m asking anyone out there who does have information about

Fiona and John’s death, no matter what the information might be, please come forward and speak to police. “It is absolutely no less than their family deserves after all this time.” In 2017 police issued a $1-million reward for information in relation to the matter. Detectives are appealing for information Australia-wide due to the nature of the case. Police are urging anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report online at www. crimestoppers.com.au. For more information people can go to website www.police.vic. gov.au/fiona-burns-and-john-lee.

Regional artists in action Wimmera residents had an opportunity to watch artists in action at the weekend during art-making shows at Laharum and Murtoa. Art is… festival committee selected a range of artists to take part in two popup ‘Walkabout Watch Artists Make Art’ sessions. Festival Galleries on the Side curator Alistair Shaw said the sessions brought artists and community together, to discuss the artist’s inspiration, watch them at work and view their creations.

“We’ve expanded our presentation of local artists in this year’s festival,” he said. “Laharum Community Hall and Murtoa Mechanics Hall are each home to an eclectic supply of artists from their local communities who work across different media. “There are potters, quilters, knitters, painters, crafters and photographers.” Organisers of Art is… Unexpected had to cancel or postpone festival activities and events due to a seven-day circuitbreaker COVID-19 lockdown late last month.

Hommy ‘in the fight of his life’

REUNION: Horsham’s Ian Hommelhoff, seated, welcomed some special visitors to his home earlier this year, former Watchem-Corack Football Club team-mates, from left, John Blair, Graeme Cook, John Boyle and Michael Connellan and coach Terry McGee. Mr McGee and his wife Dot travelled from Gosford, NSW, for the impromptu reunion after learning Mr Hommelhoff had been diagnosed with motor-neurone disease, MND. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Terry McGee, who coached Mr Hommelhoff at Watchem-Corack Football Club in 1967 and ’68. When Mr McGee discovered his friend had MND, he and his wife Dot jumped in their car and drove to Horsham from their home in Gosford, NSW. Mr McGee told The Weekly Advertiser in March, he last saw his friend 52 years ago. “It’s good to catch up, it’s been a long time,” he said. Mr McGee said the Redlegs finished runners-up in North Central Football League in both seasons he coached. He said Mr Hommelhoff was a ‘brilliant’ footballer. “He played rep footy both years I was here,” he said. Several other players from the 196768 team also participated in a reunion at the Hommelhoffs, sharing stories about days gone by. “It only took a minute and they were reminiscing about their footy days,” Ms Winfield said. She said although her father had now lost the use of his legs and his left arm – and was frustrated he could no longer play lawn bowls – he still had a great sense of humour. “And he still loves everything football,” she said.

and Ms Winfield, Horsham. Ms Winfield said her father had always been ‘sports mad’. “But above all, he is a die-hard football player, coach and supporter,” she said. “He has every football recorder since the early 1950s and is forever pulling them out to show people. “Those who know dad know how passionate he is about football and his conversation will always include football. “That is where the idea came about for Wimmera Football League premiers to get a medal, because he used to say that back in his day, they never got anything to show for it. “That’s when the HommelhoffWinfield premiership medallions were born. I have been presenting them since 1991, when his beloved Minyip

Raising money to find a cure for MND will be a key part of this weekend’s AFL action. While Monday’s match between Collingwood and Melbourne has been relocated to Sydney, Big Freeze 7 will still go ahead at the MCG as planned. “Dad has already decided to donate his organs and everything that he possibly can to MND, for research,” Ms Winfield said. “There is no cure for the disease and the average life expectancy, according to MND Australia, is just two to three years. Two Australians die from MND every day, while another two are diagnosed with the shocking illness. “We urge you to support MND.” People can visit fightmnd.org.au to make a donation, or for more information about the disease.

fter a couple of falls and walk that became a shuffle, Ian Hommelhoff’s family knew something was wrong.

His wife, Lorna, thought a tumour might be pressing on his spine, affecting his balance. They sought medical help and Mr Hommelhoff, 79, was referred to an oncologist. The news he was ‘cancer free’ should have been cause for celebration – but it turns out, a tumour would have been a more favourable outcome. Mr Hommelhoff has motor-neurone disease, MND, meaning his nerve cells – which control the muscles that enable him to move around, speak, swallow and breathe – no longer work normally and will eventually die. As his daughter, Donna Winfield, puts it, ‘Dad is in the fight of his life’. “Dad learnt of his diagnosis the day the five-day snap lockdown was announced in February,” she said. “He was unable to see any of his family, which was just awful.” Motor-neurone disease has been in the spotlight in the past few years, thanks largely to the efforts and determination of former Essendon player and Melbourne coach Neale Daniher. Daniher, who was diagnosed with the disease in 2013, is committed to finding a cure, raising money and awareness through his Fight MND charity. “We thought that dad wouldn’t know what the disease was unless they told him it was what Neale Daniher had,” Ms Winfield said. “Sure enough, days later he rang me and said, ‘I’ve got what Neale Daniher has. Perhaps you could get me into a doctor in the city who could cure me’.” Mr Hommelhoff, known as ‘Hommy’, was born and raised at Wycheproof and lived in Port Fairy, Watchem and Horsham for work. His three children grew up in Horsham. His son Phil lives in Papua New Guinea and is unable to travel to Australia due to the pandemic. Joanne Zippel lives in Dimboola

won the premiership. Some of his favourite sons Hugh Drum and John Hotker were in that team.” A talented footballer from a young age, Mr Hommelhoff was scouted by Essendon, but turned down an offer to play VFL to stay with his young family and play regional football. As his playing days ended, he coached teams including Taylors Lake and Longerenong College, along with junior sides at Minyip and Horsham United. “He was always trying to encourage kids to play their best,” Ms Winfield said. “He liked to help players learn how to mark a ball and kick a ball, something that still frustrates him at footy’s highest level. “His grandsons Sam and Tom Winfield were testament to his coaching

skills. He used to say, ‘turn up to your first training fit, work on your fitness all year round while learning the skill of kicking left and right’. “He would also tell all the kids to have a footy in their hands all the time to get a feel for it.” Ms Winfield said among highlights of her father’s playing days with Watchem-Corack was a strong contest against Wycheproof-Narraport star Greg Kennedy. “He’d kicked 10 goals the week before to be kept goal-less on Dad the following week,” she said. “The following year, Kennedy was drafted to Eaglehawk and then onto Carlton. “John Boyle, of Watchem, said dad was an amazing player. He was so talented.” Another man to sing his praises is

A team of Monash University researchers developed the ‘makerspace’ program in partnership with Yarriambiack Shire Council and Working Heritage. The program ties into a Monash project to re-establish the town’s heritage courthouse into an ‘art hotel’. Warracknabeal resident and circuit manager Janelle Inkster joined the researchers to help run a series of workshops out of a dedicated creative space in Scott Street. Ms Inkster said the pilot program would provide the community with access to low-cost technology and craft for up to 12 months. “We’re hoping people will take part in inductions, learn how to use the equipment and then think about ways they can use that space to learn a new hobby or even create their own side business,” she said. “Monash University was looking at smaller communities, potentially ones that did not have an artistic or creative hub in them, for this project.” Ms Inkster said 3D printers, robots, cutting machines, audio-visual equipment, computerised sewing, drones, drills and drawing supplies would be accessible in the creative space.

OPEN 7 DAYS

“There will be LEGO workshops that will expand into robotics and there will be other workshops that focus on 3D modelling,” she said. “On Friday night we scheduled a workshop teaching students how to use an iPhone to make movies. These workshops are for anyone who wants to learn.” The program will combine creative practice researchers, artists, designers, educators, social innovators and contemporary makers to trial programs with the community, across all ages. Ms Inkster said Monash University designed the program to meet a need in Warracknabeal to provide more creative outlets for the community. “The researchers identified that Warracknabeal doesn’t have many structures in place to do with organised art,” she said. “In Warracknabeal, we don’t always have the fantastic opportunities that Melbourne people might get. “There are definitely individuals interested in art or already established in the area, but there’s not a lot of opportunities for people here.” Ms Inkster said she hoped the program would expose young people to a range of opportunities. “Kids need to see that there’s more out there than what we’re exposed to by our own social group or family upbringing,” she said. “It’s just giving kids in Warracknabeal the exposure to art to show them they don’t have to go away to a private school to be successful at any of their passions.”

Headaches- they’re common

in fact they are so common that pharmaceutical companies would have you believe that they’re normal and they have a list of pills for a quick fix so you can soldier on with your day. So what’s the best thing to do? 1. Stop and think why you have a headache, maybe you need to have a couple of glasses of water, maybe eat something, maybe you need to sit out of the glaring hot sun, maybe you’re tired? 2. Have those 2 glasses of water and sit quietly and have a rest if you can. 3. See your chiropractor. Chiropractors are great at looking after headaches. A good chiropractor will listen and take a comprehensive history. They will check your spine to see what stiffness and fixations are attributing to the problem. It maybe a simple adjustment that helps you or it maybe more complicated. No matter what the issue a good chiropractor can assist and guide you to have the best possible outcome and work with other professionals to the benefit of your health. Interesting fact: children suffer headaches and migraines, however they often start off as tummy pains and as the child gets older become headaches and migraines. Chiropractors are good at identifying these issues.

Sampling focus for explorer North Stawell Minerals has started soil sampling across its tenements as part of a mission to find high-grade gold deposits in Stawell Mineralised Corridor. The public company, formed last year, has had an intensive drilling program from November to May near Glenorchy, which sits over a five-kilometre ‘Wildwood’ basalt dome. The company also commissioned an extensive gravity air survey over its tenements between Stawell and Murtoa to further boost its knowledge of the area’s rock formations and to identify anomalies. NSM chief executive Steve Tambanis said the drill and air-survey results, combined with a few solid months of soil sampling, would give geologists crucial information required to plan the next round of drilling later in the year. “We are currently recording and analysing 10,000 metres of rock core, plus samples derived from 50 tonnes of rock chips – all taken from Wildwood,” he said. “It’s the first time an explorer has completed such a deep-drilling program on the basalt dome, which is well known for its high-grade gold mineralisation.” Mr Tambanis said an NSM team had grown from four

to 12 employees during the past seven months, to ensure that literally ‘no rock was unturned’. “Our geologists and field officers are soil sampling along roadsides and on private farmland,” he said. “They’ll be using the latest hand-held x-ray technology to take readings of the soil compilation, as well as taking small bags of soil samples. “It’s zero-to-very-low impact work and we always consider the local flora and fauna with any exploration activity we conduct.” Mr Tambanis thanked landholders who had so far given NSM access and encouraged anyone with questions relating to NSM exploration activities to contact a community engagement team on 0477 011 277.

Ararat revamp Ararat’s main street is set to transform into a ‘vibrant’ business centre later this month after confirmation of a State Government outdoor dining and entertainment support package. Barkly Street in the rural city’s central business district will undergo a revamp with more opportunities for outdoor dining, activities and events as part of a $250,000 project. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison said contractors would install festoon lights, permanent decorative dividers outside cafes, restaurants and hotels, and extra outdoor power points. “From speaking with local businesses on what would make outdoor dining and entertaining a more enjoyable experience along Barkly Street, overwhelmingly the response was not having to move dividers, or bollards, in and out each day, saving time, energy, space and bruised arms,” he said. Dr Harrison said Ararat business AF Gasons had been working with the council to help plan a detailed design for divider screens to complement and enhance the look and feel of the CBD. “Several models were considered before settling on the final design of the dividers, taking into consideration the ‘Art Deco’ influence of a number of the iconic buildings along Barkly Street,” he said. “Other key features of the upgrade will include installing five outdoor power points and festoon lighting. This will help activate the space at night and create more outdoor dining opportunities.” Dr Harrison said the revamped streetscape would create a more attractive environment for people to enjoy. “We’ve had positive feedback from businesses both in hospitality and retail saying the banners, custom dividers and festoon lighting will improve the overall look and feel down the main street,” he said. “Whether driving through in daytime or at night, we wanted to create a feeling of ambience that enticed tourists to come back and explore our region time and time again.”

Year of promise for Alice Skye A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

n album launch, Australian tour dates booked and recognition on a national broadcaster – 2021 is the year for Alice Skye.

After the COVID-19 pandemic ripped away almost all opportunities for the live-music industry, the threepiece indie collective including Wergaia singer-songwriter Alice Skye, with King twins, guitarist Sam and drummer Kane, are making a comeback stronger than ever. Late last month, the band earned a slot on Triple J to perform an original and a cover song for the youth broadcaster’s ‘Like a Version’. ‘Like a Version’ has become a bit of an institution I guess, and the boys and I had definitely talked about what we would do if we ever got approached,” Skye said. “Getting to play with friends and musicians in their own right including Ziggy Ramo and Antonia Gauci was so much fun.” Skye said performing for a national audience was a unique opportunity for the band to gain exposure after a challenging 2020 due to the pandemic. “It’s always exciting to have the opportunity to travel and play together but this was a special one for sure,” she said. “I think after a pretty stagnant year, it re-invigorated us and all three of us being from Horsham, we were not expecting to be doing any of this, so every opportunity means something.” Earlier this year the band also joined Midnight Oil for its Makarrata Live tour, performing alongside other renowned Australian artists such as Troy Cassar-Daley and Dan Sultan.

ON THE UP: Horsham born and raised musicians, from left, guitarist Sam King, singer Alice Skye and drummer Kane King are making major leaps and bounds in the music industry this year. The band also launched two music videos for their songs ‘Stay in Bed’ and ‘Party Tricks’ for American arts and music conference South by Southwest, which were recorded on a Glenisla farm. Skye said the band was now looking at a release date for its second fulllength album, ‘I Feel Better But I Don’t Feel Good’, on July 23. “It’s very exciting to have a date in sight for the album release,” she said. “I love the recording process and we had a great time with this album, but letting it go and having people make their own meaning of it is what excites me most.” Skye said the album represented a

maturing of the band’s song writing style since the launch of its first album ‘Friends with Feelings’. “I was pretty young when I wrote ‘Friends with Feelings’ and it’s interesting to listen back to those lyrics now,” she said. “I wanted this album to show growth and find strength and reassurance in the fact that most people don’t have everything figured out – or are constantly working towards that. “It was also the first time getting into the studio properly with Sam and Kane. “I often write songs in a pretty insular way, so I loved having a more collaborative process for this album, bouncing

ideas and energy off each other made it what it is.” Skye said she would join Melbourne-based musician Elizabeth for a seven-date joint-headline tour of Australia’s east coast in June and July. Both artists, depending on COVID-19 lockdowns, are set to perform at Adelaide, Sydney, Brisbane, Maroochydore, Melbourne, Castlemaine and Ballarat. “We might do another tour later in the year, once the album is out,” Skye said. “I think the boys and I are really looking forward to spending time out bush relaxing and writing together though.”

Dumped grain threat Agricultural leaders are calling on people to report illegal dumping of grain as part of efforts to tighten biosecurity measures. Agriculture Victoria has made the call based on last season’s successful harvest and high levels of grain and cereal moving across the state. Grains industry biosecurity officer Jim Moran said the increased movement of grain might open the door for dumping of grain in unauthorised areas. He said there was increased potential that some people transporting the grain would have concerns about excess weight and failing to comply with the Heavy Vehicle National Law, which would a breach of their part in a Chain of Responsibility, COR. “Agriculture Victoria is keen for everyone to be aware that grain dumping is an illegal activity which should be reported to the Environment Protection Authority using a reporting app,” he said. “Victorian residents can also report sightings of grain dumping to me as the state grains biosecurity officer – or the relevant state grains biosecurity officer if you’re outside Victoria. “Reports will be further investigated, cleaned up and referred to the relevant agency depending on the circumstances.” Mr Moran said people seeking further information on grain biosecurity could email jim.moran@agriculture.vic.gov.au or visit website www.graintrade.org.au/grain-industry-codes for information on the Grain Transport Code of Practice.

Drilling win near Ararat

old-exploration company Navarre Minerals has reported ‘outstanding’ gold and silver results from a probe into its Morning Bill prospect, south-west of Ararat.

The company has regularly reported promise from its exploration activities in the region and this time provided details from its first diamond-drilling results at the site. It confirmed drilling had intersected strongly anomalous gold, silver, copper lead and zinc grades, across ‘a 1000-metre strike extent and a width of about 400 metres’. Results from a remaining seven diamond holes are pending. Navarre Minerals managing director Ian Holland said the company was extremely excited about results from the first diamond hole drilled beneath a shallow mineralised ‘footprint’ it had uncovered at the prospect. “While it is early days for exploring this mineral system, the potentially economic levels of gold with silver and base metals mineralisation confirm our belief that Morning Bill could emerge

as one of our best mineral discoveries,” he said. “This is alongside our other exciting discoveries at Resolution, Adventure and Tandarra in Victoria. “The latest results provide further evidence that we might be onto a very large, concealed gold, silver and base-metals system. “We look forward to sharing results from the remainder of our initial diamond core drilling program, which tested the vertical extensions beneath our best air-core drilling results.” Reports are that mineralisation occurs beneath a veneer of younger, unmineralised cover known as the ‘newer volcanics’, ranging in thickness from about five to 30 metres. Morning Bill is part of a Glenlyle tenement 25 kilometres south-west of Ararat, within the Dryden-Stavely Volcanic Belt. This belt of rocks also hosts Stavely Minerals’ Cayley Lode copper discovery at its nearby Thursdays Gossan deposit. Navarre discovered Morning Bill as a greenfields prospect in 2018.

Production crew pushing ahead Despite COVID-19 restrictions, it is still full ‘steam’ ahead for Ararat Musical Comedy Society’s production of the ‘steampunked’ Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The production is scheduled to open at Stawell Entertainment Centre on June 18. The lockdown forced the society to cancel rehearsals, but cast members have been rehearsing at home. Director Emily Friedrichsen said this telling of Snow White, which has a steampunk theme and features ‘fabulous’ music from shows such as Dear Evan Hansen, Newsies, High School Musical, Spamalot and

Descendants, guaranteed ‘to put a smile on your face at a time when everyone needs cheering up’. She praised all who had worked on Snow White, whether on stage or behind the scenes. “I have had the pleasure to work with a brilliant and dedicated cast, crew and committee to see this show come to life,” she said. “After nearly two years of planning and work there’s no way we are letting COVID-19 stop us from taking centre stage, putting on a show that will bring smiles and laughter to us as a group and the community.”

Ms Friedrichsen said Snow White featured a cast of almost 30, ranging in age from 22 months through to 70. She said the society’s inclusion policy meant anyone who wanted to be involved had a role in the production and had made a ‘huge’ contribution to the telling of the story. Six performances of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs are scheduled, from Friday, June 18 to Sunday, June 27, including two matinees. Tickets are available online at www.stagecenta.com or by calling Stagecenta on 02 6253 1454.

What does an adviser offer?

ome people might think a financial adviser’s role is to forecast the direction of the share market from month to month and invest clients’ money accordingly.

This is not the reality, of course. Investments are only one small part of what your financial adviser can provide for you. Consider for a moment the number of websites, newsprint and broadcast time dedicated to financial topics these days. Australians seem to have an insatiable appetite for understanding finance. Whether it is the latest share-market activity, economic news or the constantly changing tax and superannuation rules, a licenced financial adviser can help answer your burning questions and save you the hassle of finding it yourself. Usually, the benefit you receive from a financial adviser can be spelt out in dollar terms. It might be the income tax you have saved by restructuring your salary, or a new concession from the Australian Tax Office or Centrelink that you did not know you could get. The finance section of your newspaper or online magazine probably includes a regular ‘advice’ or ‘Q and A’ column. By law, these columns must warn readers that the advice does not consider your personal situation or needs, and you should consider its appropriateness before acting.

WARM WELCOME: Sally Hannan and her children Mandy and Ernest Lockwood enjoy a special get-together at Stawell West Primary School pre COVID-19 lockdown. While students in regional Victoria returned to the classroom on Friday, they will need to wait a bit longer before welcoming guests back into their learning spaces, with restrictions on visitors to schools in place.

In setting your financial strategy, a good financial adviser will take the time to get to know you and your circumstances. This means that everything recommended to you – the investment portfolio, super contribution strategies, savings plans and insurance advice – is tailored to your personal needs, goals and tolerance to risk.

Bands ready for bonfire festival

n unlikely meeting of creative souls is a major driving force behind newly formed threepiece original Warracknabeal band Gypsy Love Muscle.

The band, featuring lead vocalist and guitarist Jamie Horton, keyboardist Ben Fowler and drummer Dylan De Jong, is slowly creeping its way into the Wimmera live music scene. With a collection of all original psychedelic and alternative rock songs, the band is set to take to the stage for its first show in Horsham early next month at an Art is… festival Winter Warmer bonfire event. Gypsy Love Muscle will join forces with Horsham band Trapezoid and headlining act Danny Walsh Banned in a showcase of all original music featuring Wimmera artists. Horton said the bonfire event would be the fourth show the band had played since it formed early last year. “It’s super exciting and brave for an organiser to include three artists producing original music, and two who have never performed in Horsham before,” he said. “It’s all home-grown and we need to keep that aspect of live music alive in this region – it shows crowds are interested in something different and local as well.” Horton said the three-piece came together in an unlikely turn of events. Both Horton and Fowler made their start in music in the Gippsland region, and although their paths occasionally crossed, the two were on different trajectories in life. It was not until more than 10 years later, after both had moved to Warracknabeal and completely unaware

CREATIVE JUICES: Warracknabeal band Gypsy Love Muscle, including drummer Dylan De Jong, lead vocalist and guitarist Jamie Horton and keyboardist Ben Fowler, are looking forward to performing in Horsham early next month. of each other’s movements, that their paths crossed again. Horton said he was surprised when Fowler reached out to him to let him know he had found a drummer who had relocated to Warracknabeal to start a career in rural reporting at the town’s newspaper. “I hadn’t heard from this guy in quite a long time. He told me he was now living in Warracknabeal, which was

quite shocking in itself,” Horton said. “We put together a jam and had a few drinks and got to know each other, there was no real planning. “We’ve all come from very different places in life and music doesn’t draw boundaries on that. “You can put people of any age, from any background in a room with instruments and something magical can happen.”

Horton said after only a short period of playing music together, and the COVID-19 pandemic preventing them from meeting for a large portion of 2020, the band had a full set of music ready to play. He said creativity and receptiveness were key factors contributing to the band’s ability to churn out original music. “Our ability to write original music

came from an openness towards each other and ideas. There are no boundaries,” he said. “There was never really a programmed structure, it was just a collaboration of music, ideas, feel and energy. “It’s never been wrapped in plastic. We have separate connections and we all get very much in our own space when we play. “There’s individuality from every aspect of the band.” The bonfire event at Horsham Showground was postponed to July 3 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The event will celebrate Wimmera artists and musicians, combining a range of live music, performing arts, dance workshops, community singalongs and food markets. Horton said the band was grateful for the opportunity to play. “Music and coming together of people is a really important thing and to be a very new band and to be involved in local production is exciting and gives me butterflies to be playing in front of large crowds in a local area,” he said. “To play our own music locally is very humbling and exciting to be able to do that. I hope people enjoy it.”

‘Born to outperform’ Rimac resets hypercar benchmark with Nevera

lectric hypercar specialist Rimac has launched its latest and most potent vehicle to date in the form of the Nevera – a $A3.15million speed machine capable of an 8.6-second quarter mile time and a top speed of 412kmh.

With a claimed 0-100kmh time of 1.85 seconds, it should hardly come as a surprise to find the Nevera is powered by four electric motors, which generate a combined 1427kW and a monstrous 2360Nm of torque. Once away, the Nevera will push on to a top speed of 412kmh, making it not only one of the quickest cars in the world off the mark but also one of the fastest. Described by the brand as the ‘pro-

duction-ready iteration of the Rimac C_Two concept car’ seen at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show, the secret to the Nevera’s outrageous performance is its 120kWh battery pack developed entirely in-house by the Croation brand, with its huge capacity also lending itself to a 550km claimed WLTP range. Underpinned by a bespoke carbonfibre monocoque weighing less than 200kg, the Nevera’s battery has been integrated into its platform as a structural component, helping to up its rigidity by an extra 37 percent. The shell is then wrapped in a carbon-fibre body boasting a drag coefficient of 0.3 and a heap of active aero features which can increase down-

force by as much as 326 percent. Underneath the slippery skin, the Nevera rides on double-wishbone suspension front and rear, with electronically controlled dampers and active ride-height adjustment to help it be as agile and comfortable as possible. Despite the insane performance, Rimac describes the Nevera as a ‘relaxed grand tourer with track attack precision’, thanks in part to the standard fitment of seven drive modes – sport, drift, comfort, range, track and two custom modes. Inside the cabin, almost all of the key functions traditionally controlled via switches, dials and buttons are contained within a myriad of different screens – the fully configurable digital

cockpit alone has three different TFT screens. When the battery eventually goes flat, Rimac says it can be charged at a rate of up to 500kW, resulting in just a 19-minute wait time for it to go from zero to 80 percent. Brand founder and chief executive Mate Rimac said the Nevera was the car he had in mind when he embarked on the ‘impossible’ journey 10 years ago and started Rimac Automobiles. “This car was born to outperform and to raise the bar, redefining the norm for performance cars,” he said. “And not only in performance – but as an all-around package. “With its combination of everyday use and 1914hp performance, the Ne-

vera proves what is possible when there are no restraints placed on technology, development or ambition. “We have now unveiled a car that pushes the hypercar market to a higher level. “We have used the full potential of the electric powertrain today, proving what we’ve always been saying – that electric hypercar, in the form of the Nevera, is beyond exciting, and that is as thrilling on the track, as it is crossing continents.” Just 150 Neveras will be made, each one tailor made to match the personal tastes of the customers, but it remains to be seen if any will make it Down Under. – Callum Hunter

Facelifted Audi SQ5 has landed

udi Australia’s facelifted SQ5 performance SUV has finally arrived Down Under, with the now diesel-only family hauler priced from $104,900 plus on-road costs.

Slotting in at the top of the local Q5 range, the SQ5 TDI carries a $15,300 premium over the now penultimate 50 TDI quattro S line and offers buyers a heap more performance courtesy of its more potent turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 diesel engine. As previously reported by GoAuto, the facelifted SQ5 TDI’s mill actually produces less power than its predecessor – 251kW v 255kW – however, its 700Nm of torque has been made more readily available lower in the rev range in the name of driveability. When all is said and done, the SQ5 TDI will launch from 0-100kmh in 5.1 seconds and push on to a limited top speed of 250kmh. As ever for a high-performance Audi, drive is channelled to all four wheels via a remapped version of the outgoing model’s eight-speed automatic transmission. Under normal driving conditions, the quattro all-paw system sends 40 percent of the engine’s torque to the front axle and the remaining 60 percent to the rear, however up to 85 percent can be sent to rear if needed. Thanks to its new forged steel pistons, piezo sensors for the fuel injec-

TOP OF THE RANGE: Audi’s new SQ5 TDI flaunts a new look, while updated engine enhances driveability. tors, water-air intercooler, turbo compressor wheel and 48V mild-hybrid system, Audi says the new Q5 flagship will sip just 7.0 litres of fuel per 100km on the combined cycle and emit 185g of CO2 a kilometre. To help what is ultimately a tall vehicle be as nimble as possible in the corners, Audi has lowered the SQ5’s ride height by 30mm and fitted firmer

springs with height-adjustable air suspension optionally available. Those wanting even more athletic ability can also opt for the quattro sport differential. Standard equipment, meanwhile, is headlined by 21-inch Audi Sport alloy wheels, red brake callipers, Matrix LED headlights with automatic high beam, dynamic turn signals, keyless

entry and start, power tailgate, privacy glass, 10.1-inch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay-Android Auto, duel device Bluetooth, wireless charging, DAB+ digital radio, 19-speaker Bang and Olufsen premium sound system, head-up display, 30-colour ambient lighting, tri-zone climate control, heated front seats, Nappa leather upholstery, sliding second row and a

multifunction leather steering wheel. Safety features extend to autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control with traffic jam assist, active lane assist, collision avoidance assist, rear crosstraffic assist, park assist, hill descent control, hold assist, parking sensors all round, surround-view camera, a reversing camera and the usual suite of airbags, ABS, traction and stability controls. Audi Australia managing director Paul Sansom said the new SQ5 TDI ‘represents an Audi icon in its finest form’ to date. “The instant success of the recently returned SQ5 TDI special edition models confirm the continued appeal of a high-performance TDI engine in this segment,” he said. “The new-generation 3.0 TDI V6 brings the very latest technology to deliver crushing performance, with impressive efficiency and very low emissions.” Later in the year the SQ5 TDI will be joined by a coupe-esque sportback version, which should check into local showrooms a few grand upstream of its wagon sibling. Audi Australia has sold 1210 Q5s so far this year ending April, accounting for 12 percent of the $60,000-plus medium SUV market. – Callum Hunter

Rolls-Royce returns to its roots

olls-Royce Motor Cars has announced it is returning to coachbuilding and it has done so in style with the reveal of the Boat Tail; a bespoke cabriolet created for just three of the brand’s ‘most special clients’.

BESPOKE: Having started in coachbuilding, Rolls-Royce has revived the art more than 100 years on.

past and present and tie them in with their own vision of nautical style. “We are able to offer our customers the opportunity to create a motor car in which every single element is hand-built to their precise individual requirements, as befits our status as a true luxury house,” Mr Müller-Ötvös said. “Rolls-Royce Coachbuild clients are

intimately and personally involved at each step of the creative and engineering process. “We work in harmony with the client to gain complete fluency in the nuances of their character and personality. “We carefully translate these qualities into the elements with which they wish to imbue their commission.” A return to coachbuilding was pre-

viewed back in 2017 when RollsRoyce debuted the Sweptail, a custom two-seater coupe flaunting a panoramic glass roof commissioned privately four years earlier in 2013. With the coachbuild department now online, head of design Alex Innes said it provided freedom for clients to move ‘beyond the usual design constraints’.

@theweeklyaddy EMPLOYEE DRIVER POSITION – HR DRIVERS LICENCE + 3 YEARS EXPERIENCE CYLINDER DELIVERY SERVICES

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au Christian Devotions

Underneath you are the everlasting arms of God

Just as Abraham had blessed the sons of Israel before he died (Genesis 49), so too does Moses (Deuteronomy 33). In the blessing of Asher we hear, ‘The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms’ (Deut 33:27). The great 19th Century preacher, Charles Spurgeon, was attending a graveside funeral, and after the coffin was lowered, he heard the minister pray: “Lord, we thank You that though our dear friend has come so low as to be in his grave, he cannot go any lower, for, ‘underneath are the everlasting arms,’ and in due time You will bring him up again, in those everlasting arms, raised in the likeness of his Lord.” Hollywood thrillers and horror movies just touch the surface when they play on our fears with what might be lurking underneath the earth and beneath the mirrored waters. Even the thought of what might be lurking under the bed can bring chills of dread to any young child or skittish adult. But the true threat that “lurks beneath” is far more dangerous. The powers of darkness approach us from “underneath,” as it were. So this blessing is not just a cozy thought, but rather the bestowal of God’s own everlasting arms underneath: lifting you up when sin, death and the devil want to drag you down. When, in faith, we capitalize on this theme of “underneath-ness” and transform it into God’s “Underneathness:” what comfort and assuredness will be ours! Satan might be underhanded in all his works and ways, but it’s God, in Christ Jesus, who has His powerful arms to save already underneath you. So, the only way Satan may succeed, is if God’s arms were never underneath you in the first place (making Him out to be a liar), or if you yourself have since wrested them away from underneath you (unbelief and unrepentance). Pastor Chris Raatz, Grampians Lutheran Parish

Nhill event cancelled Nhill Golf Club has cancelled its 2021 June tournament and postponed its centenary celebrations. The club has made the move based on uncertainty regarding COVID-19 restrictions. The tournament was originally scheduled for the Queen’s Birthday long weekend from June 10 to 14.

SOCIAL GAME: Golfers were able to take to the course with the easing of COVID-19 restrictions last week. No competition golf is allowed, however, golfers were permitted to practise their game under COVID-safe rules. Pictured at Horsham Golf Club are, clockwise from above: Andy Joyce; Garret Clarke; Chris Delley; and Josh Dossett. Pictures: PAUL CARRACHER

Although rules might change, under latest restrictions regional golf clubs are restricted to 50 people on course at any one time and competitions are banned. The club had been ‘overwhelmed’ with entries for the milestone tournament and thanked all who had planned to help members celebrate the occasions.

Championships are rescheduled BY DAVID BERRY

majority decision by Volleyball Victoria Country Championship Commission has led to the rescheduling of 2021 championships.

The championships, originally planned for Horsham this weekend, will now be from September 24 to 26. The commission made the decision following the statewide COVID-19 lockdown. Commission chair Murray Mansfield of Bendigo said the option of staging the event later in the year was best for the volleyball community. “Volleyball Horsham had already undertaken a considerable amount of work in organising CC21, including attracting funding to support the costs of presenting the event and outlaying a large amount of money, which would have to be written off if the event was cancelled,” he said. “The championships have always been over a three-day weekend and the only opportunity for this to happen in 2021, without impacting traditional tournament offerings, was AFL grand final weekend. “Options to reduce the size of the event to fit into a two-day weekend were discussed, but it was determined three days were essential. To expect players, coaches, officials and volunteers to take a day off work or school would not be acceptable.” While disappointed the event cannot be this

weekend, the rescheduled date gives Volleyball Horsham teams a greater opportunity to get more members participating. Volleyball Horsham’s Tim Popple said with Wimmera and Horsham District leagues changing their draws, if the event went ahead, it was going to affect several players, who rightfully committed to playing volleyball when they saw the free weekend in their football-netball draw. “Now those players can concentrate on their football or netball and then when their season finishes re-commit to representing Horsham in these championships, which is a win-win for both,” he said. “Hopefully we can get more members on board to play in this pinnacle event for country volleyball.” Volleyball Horsham committee will meet later this month to take stock of where they are at and push ahead with new plans for the event. There might be scope to factor in the chance for the participants to play and get an opportunity to watch the AFL grand final. All options will be explored once the team entries are known. On the domestic front, all eyes will be on Spring Street for further announcements of the possible easing of restrictions for indoor sport so Volleyball Horsham’s summer season can reach a suitable climax. Until then, all members are asked to monitor the situation, look out for each other and stay safe.

TRACK EXPERIENCE: Wimmera Kart Racing Club karting activity controller Anthony Taylor instructs juniors Jack Neofitou, left, and Ryan Holland at the club’s ‘bring a mate’ day at the weekend. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

‘Bring a mate’ day a success Wimmera Kart Racing Club members enjoyed a few laps around the Dooen track at a ‘bring a mate’ session on Saturday. Club karting activity controller Anthony Taylor said the day, designed to generate interest in the sport in the region, went well. “We’re running the ‘bring a mate’ session so people who are friends of karters can come

out and get the experience of driving on the track, to see whether they like it or not,” he said. “Hopefully we end up with some new members out of it. “We had two in this morning and another three this afternoon, so it’s been good.” Mr Taylor said he was pleased COVID-19 restrictions had eased to allow for adult sport training and practice.

“We’re running under fairly strict Karting Australia guidelines, which are linked to the Victorian government COVID directions,” he said. Wimmera Kart Racing Club is due to host round four of the DPE Victorian Country Series on July 17 and 18.

Martin joins Dunn in volunteer awards

immera Football Netball League’s volunteer of the month is Nathan Martin from Horsham Saints.

As a volunteer overall club, club-project and club-duty leader, Mr Martin is an integral part of the Saints, one of the core people responsible for running a large ‘vibrant’ organisation. Mr Martin has taken on a variety of roles including club president, grants officer, COVID-19 marshal and joint bar manager and also oversees duty rosters, welfare checks on club players and members and works closely with the club’s netball director to help where needed. He also takes on clean-up duties after home games and training nights and ensures the club’s social-media communications are up to date so members remain informed about club projects, policies and directions.

Spectators missing from Apsley This weekend’s Apsley Cup at Edenhope will go ahead as scheduled, but without spectators. Apsley Racing Club committee made the decision, regardless of any changes to restrictions this week, because of a lack of time for volunteers to prepare for the event. Only essential participants will be allowed to attend. Sunday’s meeting will be the 166th running of the cup and only the second time it will be closed to the public, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The cup meeting was at Casterton last year, while Edenhope racecourse underwent renovations.

Club manager Tammy Pretlove said members had been looking forward to welcoming people back on course and were disappointed. “The club is only a once-a-year race meeting and it also attracts a lot of people from over the South Australian border,” she said. “It is disappointing for the community, but we are understanding of the importance to keep everyone safe. “We thank all of our members, sponsors and supporters and look forward to welcoming you back on course next year.”
