Protein powder boom A

$45.7-million investment from international agri-food giant Bunge has fast-tracked plans to double the production of plantprotein powder in Horsham. Australian Plant Proteins, APP, which launched its first commercial processing plant in Horsham last year, secured the investment as a result of booming international plant-protein demand. The agreement will allow APP to double the output of its protein isolates production by March 2022, as well as give Bunge a minority stake

in the company and make it the exclusive distributor in the Americas. APP co-founder and director Brendan McKeegan said the investment meant the next stage of development at the site in Horsham Enterprise Estate would start next month and be finished by March next year. “Initial plans were to increase manufacturing capacity after 12 months but we’re now looking to fast-track that,” he said. “Securing investment and distribution agreements with a major multinational such as Bunge, alongside

our existing partnership with Scalzo Foods in Australia and New Zealand, is testament to the value and ongoing growth in demand for quality, plantbased protein options.” Melbourne-based agricultural investment management company EAT Group, of which Brim-raised Phil McFarlane is a director, founded Australian Plant Proteins in 2016. The company developed the concept in the wake of Wimmera Development Association identifying an opportunity to exploit protein levels in Wimmera pulse crops, regardless of

harvest grading, about a decade ago and establishing a business case. Australian Plant Proteins, which had worked to develop cutting-edge ‘fractionation’ technology to process pulses, gained significant momentum in 2019 when Australian food-ingredient distributor Scalzo Foods announced it had invested in the company. The launch of APP’s first commercial-scale plant-protein facility in Horsham, concentrating on faba beans grown in the Wimmera-Mallee, has since created a value-added step in Australia’s legume and pulse supply

chain. The company has also used its unique fractionation process to develop protein isolates from yellow peas, mung beans, chickpeas, red lentils and yellow lentils, all of which are ready for commercial launch. “As soon as APP commenced commercial production in November 2020, we experienced soaring demand for our premium faba bean protein isolate in Australia and internationally, with customers impressed with the product’s high functionality and clean taste,” Mr McKeegan said.

Cave statue still on radar BY DYLAN DE JONG

project to build a ‘larger-than-life’ bronze statue of internationally renowned singer-songwriter Nick Cave in Warracknabeal is gaining momentum.

Cave was born at Warracknabeal and project leaders are confident their plans are ‘shovel ready’. But they said securing money was the biggest hurdle, estimating the statue would cost about $200,000. Cave fan and Warracknabeal Arts Council committee member Peter Loy said growing support from the Warracknabeal community and Yarriambiack Shire Council meant the project was well placed to push forward. “With the support from the council and many locals we know the statue will be built,” he said. “It’s now a matter of when we can find the money. Finding grants suitable is a problem, but we are always on the lookout.” Cave is best known as the front man of rock band Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. His music and influence have endured more than 40 years in the industry. Cave and accomplished British sculptor Corin Johnson designed the bronze statue in the mid ’90s. It features the musician, covered only in a loin cloth, astride a rearing stallion. But the concept to build the statue only received serious momentum in 2018 when Cave fans who lived at Warracknabeal launched a crowd-funding campaign for the project. The group reached an agreement with Mr Johnson, who it would commission to build the statue. Mr Johnson said from London he hoped the group could secure money to push forward with its plans. “I would still very much like to do the project,” he said. “I would be happy to get the piece made here and ship it over to Australia or ship over moulds to cast it over there.”

RE-LAUNCH: Warracknabeal Arts Council president Jenny Taylor is among community members exploring funding options to build a $200,000 statue of renowned musician Nick Cave in the town. Picture: RACHEL DECKERT

He suggested the group could seek financial support through a ‘revamped’ crowd-funding campaign, sponsorship and government grants. “I’m sure lots of people who appreciate Nick’s music and people who like something a bit different would be happy to throw a few dollars at a crowd-funding campaign,” he said. “Some friends of mine in New York run a record label and are always crowd-funding projects. They nearly always get more money than they ask for and it’s often for far more obscure projects than this. “They said they would be very happy to help advise a campaign if anyone wants to run one – they are massive Nick Cave fans.”

Major drawcard

Mr Loy said the success of the Wimmera’s Silo Art Trail coupled with Cave’s star power would make the statue a major tourist attraction for Warracknabeal and the broader Wimmera-Mallee.

“The many who are looking to complete this project feel the time has never been better to provide another reason for people to visit our great region,” he said. “This amazing statue will be one of the most recognisable bronzes in the world. “Warracknabeal will be forever linked to what will be the most exciting new bronze of a world-renowned artist, anywhere.” Mr Loy said since the campaign launch, the statue project had also been subject to criticism. “The general community reaction is either love it or hate it,” he said. “It’s a mixed bag of feedback in Warracknabeal and also the Cave fan base. “The fans and the Warrack locals are not too far apart in their scepticism. “It will only be once it is up that they will see its benefits.” The old Warracknabeal Court House is the arts council’s preferred location for the statue.

Dunmunkle care survey Yarriambiack Shire Council is keen to hear from parents across its Dunmunkle district as it explores childcare service needs. Council leaders are encouraging Minyip, Murtoa and Rupanyup district parents to complete an online survey as part of the investigation. Council chief executive Jessie Holmes said childcare in the Dunmunkle catchment had been lacking ‘for quite some time’. “It is now at a point where we have a willing workforce, but, due to the lack of childcare options, they are unable to work,” she said. The council is asking survey participants to provide feedback on locations, format of childcare and children demographics to obtain a clear picture of circumstances and response needed. The council will collate survey results and prepare a business plan to develop the project to a stage where it is ‘infrastructure shovel ready’ and in a position to attract a childcare provider to run future services. “Childcare is critical to residents, and potential residents looking to move to our region,” Ms Holmes said. “Our youngest residents are also missing out on the social and educational aspects of childcare, engaging with other children and learning social skills. We are working hard to rectify this gap in our early childhood services. “Childcare shortages have been highlighted as an area of concern for our residents through community engagement sessions throughout February and March. “The council is addressing this concern and working with the community to not only meet current needs, but also plan for the future needs of childcare in Minyip, Murtoa and Rupanyup.” People can access the survey online at www. yarriambiack.vic.gov.au by April 23.

Weighing risks key to vaccination W

immera Health Care Group has stopped vaccinating people younger than 50 with the AstraZeneca vaccine due to concerns about a link to a bloodclotting finding.

Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation, ATAGI, has recommended Australia consider an alternative COVID-19 vaccine for people under 50. The recommendation is based on European Medicines Agency finding a possible link between the vaccine and the rare form of blood-clotting. The health-care group’s Horsham base, one of two vaccine ‘hubs’ in the region, is reassessing its vaccine program for people under 50. However, clinical leaders said they

would continue to use AstraZeneca vaccines to vaccinate people over 50. Medical services director Rob Pegram said Australia’s low rate of community transmission meant it could afford to slow down its vaccination program. “We have virtually zero community transmission – there’s no need to hurry this in Australia, we need to get it right and absolutely minimise the risk,” he said. He said figures showed the risk of the AstraZeneca vaccine causing the reaction were ‘relatively low’. “We know that, depending on what country you’re in, at a rate of about four to five-million doses, there are about four to five cases per million people vaccinated,” he said. “These are central blood clots, so

they’re quite dangerous and the mortality rate is about 25 percent – but it’s extremely rare. “As a comparison for women taking the contraceptive pill, we would expect that to be about 30 to 40 bloodclot events per 100,000 – that’s a low risk, but it’s a real risk.” A doctor deeply involved in Australia’s role in international vaccine efforts to tackle the virus from a home base in Natimuk has reaffirmed his position that vaccination is about weighing up risk.

Grenfell weighs in

CSIRO health and biosecurity director Dr Robert Grenfell spoke on the issue in the wake of protocols involving the AstraZeneca vaccine. “As with all medicines, we need to carefully consider the risks of vac-

cinating alongside the risks of not vaccinating,” he said. “For context, the risk of dying from a motor vehicle accident in Australia in 2018 was five in 100,000. “The risk of death from COVID in people over 30 is one in 900, and for those over 50 it’s one in 90. “And ‘long COVID’, where debilitating symptoms last for months after initial infection, is a real concern. “Tens of millions of doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine have been given worldwide so far, and from that, we’ve seen a substantial decrease in serious illness from COVID-19. “What’s important is that we do find a way to continue vaccinating Australians against COVID-19, whether that’s using the AstraZeneca vaccine for people over 50 and those at higher

Go-ahead for Blue Ribbon gala Victoria Police Western Region Assistant Commissioner Cindy Millen will be guest speaker at a Blue Ribbon Foundation Horsham branch gala dinner on Saturday night. Assistant Commissioner Millen, who joined the police force in 1989, has vast experience, working from busy inner metropolitan stations and investigative divisions to various leadership roles. She now oversees a geographical region that makes up more than 60 percent of the state, where the policing landscape ranges from metropolitan to regional and remote. Organisers had originally scheduled the gala dinner for February 13 but had to postpone the event based on COVID-19 restrictions.

risk of COVID-19 under 50; using the Pfizer vaccine where available; or even through the Novavax vaccine expected to be reviewed by the TGA later this year.” The Federal Government has accepted the ATAGI advice and prioritised the Pfizer vaccine over the AstraZeneca vaccine for Australians under 50. The State Government has advised that in adults under 50 where the benefits of protection against COVID-19 are likely to outweigh the risks of the side effect, the AstraZeneca vaccine can be used. The government is also advising people who have received the first dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine with no major adverse reaction to receive the second dose as planned, including if they are under 50.

Event spokesperson Kelly Schilling said considerable expectation surrounded the evening. “We are beyond excited to finally bring our guests this much-anticipated event and are on target to raise $30,000 for Wimmera Health Care Group to buy a new neonatal resuscitator unit for Wimmera Base Hospital,” she said. “Guests have been looking forward to this sold-out event since February and 168 people will be attending.” Ms Schilling said the night’s activities would start from 6pm, with an opportunity for guests to arrive in style thanks to Wimmera Mallee Historical Vehicle Society and its classic car rides. “We also welcome the new addition of

live music by local talent Aaron Murray and welcome back our gold sponsors for the Skillinvest Bubbles for Bling champagne raffle and Elders’ Night Cap Experience,” she said. “Guests will indulge in a three-course meal thanks to Horsham Golf Club and have an opportunity to snap up some amazing goodies in the ACE live auction hosted by Rob Dolan. We are excited by our slightly different entertainment this year, comedy hypnotist Andy Venning, thanks to Harvey Norman Horsham. “It’s set to be a great night and we cannot thank the generosity of local businesses enough, with their support of our event through supplying auction items, gifts and displays to bring our night together.”

From page 1 “Australian Plant Proteins has achieved an Australian agribusiness first by linking growers of abundant, quality raw materials to the booming plantprotein food and beverage market,” Mr McKeegan said. “The investment and interest also creates strong precedent for further development of similar value-add industries in the Australian agricultural sector.” As part of the investment agreement Bunge will have the option to licence APP proprietary processing technology outside Australia. The agreement means the companies will join forces to meet increased demand for ‘highly functional, non-genetically modified’ plant proteins from manufacturers of plantbased meat, dairy, other food and beverage, and nutritional supplements. Bunge entered the plant-protein supply chain with a portfolio of high-purity pea and

canola proteins in 2020 and will expand with APP’s portfolio of protein isolates sourced exclusively from Australiangrown pulses. American-based Bunge Protein Business vice-president Kaleb Belzer said the partnership had significant benefits. “By combining APP’s proprietary extraction technology with our application expertise and global sales and distribution networks, we provide a significant competitive advantage in making quality plant protein accessible to customers around the world,” he said. Mr McKeegan said APP’s protein isolates were designed to help brands of all sizes grow with a plant-based trend. “We’re enabling food and beverage manufacturers to tap into the demand for new protein types, make protein claims, deliver exceptional texture and mouthfeel, and align with consumers seeking non-GMO and clean label offerings,” he said.

Key route reconstruction Ararat Rural City Council leaders say upgrades to a road in the municipality’s south will significantly improve roadfreight efficiencies for the region’s agricultural sector. Contractors have started the $1.3-million project to upgrade Willaura-Wickliffe Road, which serves as a key freight

route for the farming community. Council chief executive Tim Harrison said works would continue until late May and road closures and detours would be in place during the construction period. He said two sections of the road spanning 2.19 kilometres would be reconstructed.

Highway plans under scrutiny T

BY DYLAN DE JONG

he future cultural and environmental management of a highway duplication project south of Ararat is under a microscope following the Supreme Court hearing corruption allegations.

Major Road Projects Victoria’s 12-kilometre section of a Western Highway duplication project between Buangor and Ararat is on hold. The project has continued to be the subject of ongoing legal battles since Supreme Court Justice Jacinta Forbes extended a temporary ban on the works late last year. Lawyer Michael Kennedy, representing a group including members of Djab Wurrung Protection Embassy and Keep Original Route, KORs, which oppose the project route, said a cultural-heritage management plan prepared in 2013 to advise the proj-

ect’s direction was a ‘deficient’ document. Mr Kennedy’s statement came after lawyer Ron Merkel, representing Djab Wurrung woman Marjorie Thorpe, alleged in a Supreme Court hearing that a deal regarding the plan between Martang, the initial Aboriginal corporation responsible for the land, and the State Government might have been illegal. The latest matters will be the subject of a directions hearing in the Supreme Court scheduled for coming weeks. Mr Kennedy said analysis raised concerns about the legitimacy of the plan the State Government used to decide on the alignment of the highway upgrade. “Mr Merkel argued that the cultural-heritage management plan – that Martang was partly responsible for – was illegal and invalid and could not be relied upon,” he said.

“I think the Traditional Owners will succeed in showing that the past plan was illegal.” The State Government has indicated to the court that it will seek to enter into a new cultural-heritage management plan following the allegations. The Weekly Advertiser contacted Victorian Transport Minister Jacinta Allan’s office regarding the matters. A government spokesperson said Eastern Maar Aboriginal Corporation, the current registered Aboriginal party responsible for the land, would need to approve any new management plan before the duplication project could proceed. “Eastern Maar Aboriginal Corporation is the registered Aboriginal party that represents the Djab Wurrung people, and we continue to respect their cultural authority to speak for Djab Wurrung country,” the spokesperson said.

“In 10 years, there have been 152 crashes on the Western Highway between Ballarat and Stawell, including 18 fatalities; it is vital for the safety of the community that this road is duplicated.” However, Mr Kennedy said he had concerns about management of the new plan. “Major Road Projects Victoria will appoint its own archaeological survey group as part of this plan, called Australian Cultural Heritage Management, who then subcontract part of the field work that they will do with Eastern Maar,” he said. “We plan to challenge this move in court because we believe Eastern Marr cannot objectively form a cultural heritage management plan.” Ms Thorpe filed the injunction on the road project in late October to stop duplication works after authorities removed a large yellow box tree

that Traditional Owners referred as a ‘directions tree’. Mr Kennedy said a permanent injunction would save an additional six trees Traditional Owners considered culturally significant. “If Justice Forbes decides to grant a permanent injunction, MRPV has nowhere to go but to make a fresh alignment,” he said. “If that’s the case, MRPV won’t be able to run the road where they want to, they’ll have to run the road with the alignment which will meet the criteria of cultural heritage and environment. “It is important to note that my Traditional Owner clients, Western District farmers and the environmental group I represent want the highway to be completed. “They just want to see it done properly and ensure it respects the environment and the cultural heritage.”

Fresh perception into monarchy T

he national reaction to the death of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh at 99 and the follow-up stories of reflection and intrigue has been staggering in its diversity.

Public response has been everything from embracing love and sentimentalism to an opportunity for many to launch into sarcastic and disrespectful, albeit in some cases clever, jokes. Digital-media enthusiasts have had a field day. Sitting somewhere in the middle has been a response of fleeting interest or collective indifference. Some have simply been impressed that the Prince’s marriage to Queen

Elizabeth had been so enduring. The broad reaction to the royal death represents the latest chapter in a story of polarising Australian views regarding the monarchy. For some, their position is clear and concise. Dug in on one side of the fence sits monarchists, staunch believers in the value of a ‘tried and true’ process that places a standard-setting royal sovereign at the head of a democratic process. On the other are determined republicans, who struggle to see any value for an evolving country to have a head of state established by historic birthright in a far-away foreign land. Sitting on the fence, dismissive of

EDITORIAL By Dean Lawson

the arguments of both camps, are many who simply don’t care. They rub shoulders with others who, while believing they have little if any connection with historic British ideals, are also worried about the implications of ‘fixing something that isn’t broken’. What does it all mean for the regional and rural communities of the

Wimmera, Mallee and Western District? Apart from a distraction and an opportunity to sprout idealistic philosophies, not much – for the moment at least. While out in western Victoria we might feel far removed from the issue, there is a sense of inevitability that a future government will ask us again to play our part in debate regarding our constitution and head of state. The death of Prince Philip might represent little more than a bump on the seismograph measuring the story of Australia’s dedication to British royalty. But we suspect when the time finally comes for Queen Elizabeth,

the needle will go off the chart. The Queen has been a rock for the monarchy, a figurehead that, perhaps unlike some other members of her family, many Australians adore. What happens to our connection when she dies? Ultimately, we will steer our system of governance to reflect how we see ourselves as Australians. This will reflect an evolution that started thousands of years ago with many cultures developing from the arrival of the first Australians, the dramatic change that came with the appearance of the British and then and now, the flood of immigrants from around the world.

Merger petition

FAMILY AFFAIR: Former Horsham sportsman David Abud has completed his bike ride from Melbourne to Horsham to raise money for research into Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. Mr Abud, a former national volleyballer and Horsham premiership footballer, had initially hoped to raise $5000 but to yesterday the tally had climbed to $11,740. He took inspiration for the ride from his father and former long-time Horsham doctor Rodney Abud who, after working with patients with Alzheimer’s is now battling the condition himself. David Abud is pictured on the outskirts of Horsham hugging his mother Beryl and flanked by family members and support riders. They are, from left, sister Diahnn Abud, Maggie Spinks, Jack Spinks, Maree Nunn, sister Fiona Abud with baby Sam Abud, wife Sue Abud, Jim Nunn, Jamie Abud, Josh Abud and Gavin Lombard.

Member for Lowan Kealy has launched a petition against a proposal to merge Wimmera Health Care Group and Ballarat Health Services. She has urged people to sign the petition in response to state Health Minister Martin Foley declining an invitation to visit Horsham to hear community concerns. “My office continues to be inundated with emails and phone calls about this issue, with 100 percent against the amalgamation,” she said. “The primary concern is that amalgamation will lead to significant job losses and a loss of local control over services that residents have fought for and raised money for over many decades. “While the minister is saying it is not a political decision, we know amalgamations are happening across the state and that it is Labor government policy to amalgamate country health services. “It is critical that the minister comes to Horsham to

listen to local people and understand the overwhelming consensus that people want to keep their health services local and do not want their local hospital to merge with Ballarat.” Ms Kealy said whether the problem was funding, infrastructure, insufficient clinical staff and specialists or recruitment, merging was not the solution. “Locals are smart enough to see that promises of more services, more doctors, more money and better infrastructure can be achieved without having to hand control of our hospital to Ballarat,” she said. Ms Kealy said the petition was available at various Horsham retail outlets and her electoral office in Firebrace Street, Horsham. She said businesses wanting to have the petition available for customers to sign could call her office on 5382 0097 or email emma.kealy@parliament.vic.gov.au.

AME shores up defence contract A

The deal comes after the company partnered with Boeing Australia to develop one of the first Australian military aircraft to be built in more than 50 years. AME Systems was one of 35 Australian industry teams to help build the first prototype of Boeing’s Loyal Wingman unmanned aircraft for the Royal Australian Air Force earlier this year. “There’s a lot of pressure on the business now to deliver the Loyal Wingman in a shorter timeframe,” Mr Pinniger said. “That will be about upskilling our workforce which also rolls on to further employment.”

n Ararat manufacturing company has continued a strong association with defence-force production after becoming one of only three companies globally certified to supply parts for a military surveillance aircraft.

Design and manufacturing business AME Systems is producing wire harnesses for American global aerospace and defence technology company Northrop Grumman’s MQ-4C Triton aircraft system. The United States Navy uses the long-range unmanned aerial vehicles, UAVs, as surveillance aircraft in its operations. AME operations manager Dean Pinniger said the company’s certification to produce the wire harnesses would contribute to significant growth in the business. “The requirements to build the product are far more technically demanding than the products we’ve built in the past, but we’re certainly equipped to supply these parts,” he said. “Working with Northrop Grumman will mean there will be growth in the business and employment. It’s now really about having the staff numbers to support production orders and there’s a major opportunity for staff to gain additional skills.” Mr Pinniger said the partnership positioned AME Systems to potentially supply a new level of technology to Northrop Grumman and the broader Australian defence industry. “Achieving that certification standard has allowed us to be part of the Northrop Grumman global supply chain,” he said. “The fact that we’re now accredited to supply to them means we have the opportunity to quote on various other projects they’re a part of.”

Further partnerships

Mr Pinniger said the company’s growth meant it could seek further partnership deals. “The strategic direction of the business – while continuing to look after our current customers – was to gain growth in defence and aerospace industries,” he said. “We’ve got multiple multi-national companies working with us – that is a large opportunity and will support building the future of the business.” AME Systems received certification to manufacture wire harnesses for Tritons in January and completed its first batch in February. Both the Royal Australian Air Force and US Navy will use the harnesses in production of the aircrafts. Northrop Grumman chief executive Chris Deeble said manufacturing opportunities for AME Systems were significant, with the US Navy planning to acquire 68 operational Tritons and the Royal Australian Air Force six to seven. “AME joins a growing number of Australian companies supplying components for the Triton system and we look forward to delivering the first Australian Triton, built with Australian-made components, in 2023,” he said.

Horsham opens biosecurity centre A

velop new crop varieties faster without compromising Australia’s strict quarantine requirements.” The 400-square-metre glasshouse is fitted with LED lighting and a wi-fienabled irrigation system, allowing researchers to grow and evaluate more seeds faster while adhering to Australia’s strict biosecurity and emerging international quarantine requirements. Seeds must pass through quarantine processes before being distributed to plant breeders and researchers. The process will involve growing out the seed and carrying out a range of tests to ensure it is free from exotic pests and diseases.

new $4-million, nationally significant biosecurity centre in Horsham will provide greater security for Australia’s broadacre cropping and food-production industry. The Post Entry Quarantine, PEQ, facility at Grains Innovation Park is designed to help the industry safely introduce new crop varieties from interstate and overseas while preventing the introduction of destructive plant pests and diseases. Project leaders are confident the facility will ‘accelerate’ development of new and improved crop varieties for Australian farmers. State Agriculture Minister MaryAnne Thomas, who joined officials at an official opening last week, said the Horsham centre would be the premier grain quarantine facility in Australia. She said it supported the Australian Grains Genebank – the national centre for preserving grain-crop genetic resources in Australia – to continue its vital role in shoring up food security

She said the project was part of the State Government’s agriculture strategy to enhance the commercialisation of research and ensure the agriculture sector was well placed to be stronger, more innovative and sustainable. “Australia has some of the strongest biosecurity requirements in the world to protect our country from many exotic diseases that are out there,” she said. “It’s so important we protect our produce and ensure it can continue to be sold overseas and our farmers can continue to export.” Grains Research and Development Corporation managing director Anthony Williams said the Horsham facility would reduce quarantine wait time from two years to six months, providing better varieties faster to growers and consumers. Australian Grains Genebank is a partnership between the State Government and Grains Research and Development Corporation, which each invested $2-million towards the PEQ centre. sponsored by

Mural generating interest A Warracknabeal hotel manager is confident a freshly painted mural at his pub will help to boost tourism in the rural town. Taylor’s Palace Hotel Warracknabeal manager Bob Taylor said the mural was generating interest from passing travellers during the Easter holiday period. “When the artist was painting it we had so many travellers pull up in their cars to tell him how good it looked and stop to take photos,” he said. “It really stands out and provides a bit of a

boost aesthetically to the main street of Warracknabeal.” Mr Taylor said the mural was artist Seth McMaster’s interpretation of a photo that was taken outside the pub more than a decade ago during the town’s iconic Y-Fest celebrations. “There was photo from one of the Easter parades taken about 12 years ago of horses going past the pub,” he said. “Our owner Jenny Taylor came out with the idea of turning the image into placemats for the table, which the artist used as inspiration.”

landowner’s decision to dismantle a portion of an ancient stone arrangement at Lake Bolac has highlighted a need for greater awareness of and legal protection for culturally significant sites.

Earlier this month, Adrian McMaster removed a 60-metre tail section of a 1500-year-old heritage-listed site – known to Traditional Owners as the Kooyang Stone Arrangement – from his property. Metropolitan media reported that Mr McMaster, who has acted as caretaker for the property since his father died in 2018, said he was unaware of the overall significance of the site. He apologised for his actions. Eastern Maar Aboriginal Corporation, the registered Aboriginal party operating in the area, stressed the 176-metre-long stone arrangement in the shape of an eel was of major cultural and historic importance and was a gathering place for Traditional Owners before European colonisation. The group has since joined a chorus of voices, including Victorian Aboriginal Heritage Council, raising concerns about ‘major gaps’ in the Aboriginal Heritage

Act 2006, designed to protect sites. Cultural heritage manager John Clarke said while strong, the Act needed work to set an international best-practice standard for care of cultural heritage. “There are certainly better ways to protect sites on private property and we’re certainly up for that conversation,” he said. “We don’t have the power to enter private property. That’s a concern, but we’re not in the business of entering landowners’ back yards – that’s not what we do. “Our interest is to best protect Aboriginal heritage places where we can and have the ability to make visitations where we believe sites are at risk.” Mr Clarke said it was important for authorities and landowners to forge relationships to ensure sites were protected. “I have no doubts in many cases a lot of landholders would be interested in what they have on their property and how best to interact with those places,” he said. The heritage council wants the Act changed to allow authorised officers and Aboriginal Heritage Officers to enter land or premises without the consent of the occupier. Under the Act, if a landowner refuses permission for an officer to access their property – for the purposes of identifica-

tion and prevention of damage to the site – they are unable to proceed. Heritage council chief executive Rodney Carter said although the proposed change might seem like it impeded landowners’ rights, it was necessary to strike a balance between rights of all parties. “Once you don’t own land, you don’t have that immediate connection and you’re on the other side of the fence looking in,” he said. Mr Carter said the need for change was ‘crucial’ because instances of the Act failing to protect sites were happening at an ‘alarming’ rate. “We need to change the law so that Traditional Owners can stop destruction of our most sacred places,” he said. “The destruction of Juukan Gorge and here, in Victoria, the Kooyang Stone Arrangement, illustrates how our cultural heritage is not protected across Australia. “If you rang any one of the 11 registered Aboriginal parties in the state, they would be able to share some immediate examples of intrusion, damage, harm to cultural heritage that is taking place every day.” The council plans to release proposed changes to the Act, to better protect Aboriginal cultural heritage, in coming weeks.

Dooen landfill fire under investigation The cause of a fire at a Dooen landfill site north of Horsham in early hours of Easter Monday is subject to an investigation. Firefighters were confident last week that the fire, in a domestic-waste area, had no connection to a December fire in an industrial part of the site. Dooen Fire Brigade captain Ray Carman, one of the first on the scene in response to a fire alert about 3am Monday, said the fire was on the north side of Ladlows Road.

“The one at Christmas time was on the south side of Ladlows Road. This one was in the domestic area, unlike the Christmas fire, which was industrial,” he said. Mr Carman said the fire, measuring about 150 metres by 30 metres, was burning on the surface of domestic waste and was difficult to access. “We called for Fire Rescue Victoria elevated-platform appliances out of Warrnambool and Ballarat to assist. The fire

site was deemed safe at 6pm,” he said. Mr Carman said at least 11 Wimmera Country Fire Authority brigades, environmental monitors from Ballarat, Fire Rescue Victoria personnel, police and Horsham Rural City Council staff members responded to the incident. “All worked as a team to get it extinguished in a relatively short amount of time. The fire was contained within bunkers at the landfill site and had no chance of escaping,” he said.

That’s what it means to me

ill Lovel is one of the more

familiar football personalities across the region. The Natimuk publican quickly recognises the value of community football and netball, having been a player, coach, president, general volunteer and sponsor. With Horsham District Football Netball League set to play its first round for 2021 this weekend, The Weekly Advertiser asked Bill to provide his thoughts on the value of the games in the region – For me, it’s the social aspect of it all – where us ex-players can have a chat with old team-mates and hang a bit of rubbish on each other. But it also gives you a chance to get away from a work environment and you get to see the development of kids.

I played my last game when I was 48 with Horsham United, but before that, played with Natimuk, Homers and Minyip-Murtoa. I also originally played at Maryborough. The whole environment just brings the community together and focuses everyone on the one place and point in time. It can’t be undersold for its social side because it attracts people from all walks of life – whether you’re a solicitor or someone who might be struggling a bit. For a club to be successful, everyone needs to be able to rely on each other and your social standing doesn’t mean too much. The people in football-netball clubs are always vastly different. I returned to Natimuk while getting into the pub game and was

obviously keen to continue to be part of the footy club. But we’re supporters of the sports generally, also sponsoring Edenhope-Apsley and Noradjuha-Quantong clubs. At Natimuk United there are a lot of blokes there who I played with, from both Horsham United and Natimuk, and our kids have played there as well. Then there’s the relatives and family ties through marriage. It’s great. I think it will be good for everyone across the region when it all starts again. It is a critical social outlet and important for our communities.

Bill and Anne Lovel, right, recognise the value of community sport and love being involved in Horsham District league

Janine celebrates end of an era J

“It stopped a massive turnover,” she said. “That stability has definitely been a massive asset to the school, particularly the number of maths and science teachers who wanted to stay. Because now, it’s very hard to find maths and science teachers. “When I went through school it was a straight high school. It was an unusual time, looking back. We had a lot of overseas teachers – a lot of American teachers came to the school. It wasn’t unusual at the end of the year for 15 teachers to go and then we’d get 15 more.”

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

anine Adams has long been fascinated by the history of Ararat College – so she became an integral part of it.

A graduate of the class of 1979, Ms Adams returned to the school on February 1, 1981 as a laboratory technician. On February 1 this year, she retired as assistant principal, having spent her entire career at the college. “I worked as a lab tech for at least 24 years,” she said. “In 2002 I started at Ballarat Uni, but still worked at the college part-time.” Even before graduating with her Bachelor of Education-Bachelor of Technology, Ms Adams knew where she wanted to end up. “I never applied for any other school, although I got to the end of my course, because I knew I always wanted to be here,” she said. “Luckily, I got a position in 2005 starting here as a teacher. Then I became a leading teacher and finally, assistant principal.” Ms Adams said pursuing a career in her home town was an easy decision. “I love Ararat,” she said. “I’ve loved growing up here, I loved going through the school. I always loved the school environment, which is probably why I’ve never left it.” Ms Adams said she had many fond memories of her time as a student. She conceded that teaching students she once walked the halls alongside presented its challenges. “I think it was harder at the start, making the transition from being a student to being employed here,” she said.

Rich history

FROM STUDENT TO TEACHER: Janine Adams has retired from Ararat College following a career spanning 40 years. She first attended the school as a student and then went on to become a laboratory technician, science teacher and assistant principal. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER “There were a number of teachers on staff – Geoff Parkinson was one of them. I found it very hard to call him Geoff. I was always calling him Mr Parkinson until I realised I could call him Geoff. “It was a little strange walking into the staff room for the first time. Very quickly that changed and they’ve become lifelong friends.” Ms Adams said one of her ‘favourite teachers ever’ was Ian McGregor. “He was a chemistry wizard. He taught me chemistry, he taught a num-

ber of students in Ararat chemistry,” she said. “As a lab tech I used to enjoy standing on the other side of the wall, listening to him teach. “He was definitely one of the reasons I was inspired to actually go to university and become a science teacher.”

Forging connections

Ms Adams said one of the college’s best assets was the ‘depth of teaching’. She said throughout her time in

various roles, she had seen many staff ‘put in the time’ to forge connections with students, whether that be through school camps, excursions, plays or Rock Eisteddfods. “That connection with kids is so important,” she said. “As much as schools are about what happens in the classroom, they’re also about the extra activities that are run.” Ms Adams said one of the things she appreciated most throughout her time at the school was the teachers who had come to Ararat and stayed.

During Ms Adams’ time as a student, the college was known as Ararat High School. “I’ve always loved the history of this school, because it started off in 1913 as Ararat High, it then in 1963 became Ararat High and Tech, and then in 1969 the tech component became a separate identity and they built their new school and shifted,” she said. “In 1990 when we amalgamated, I thought historically, it was the school coming back together. “I think that’s one of the reasons our amalgamation was so successful, really – the goodwill of everyone involved and the fact we had a history of being the one school.” Ms Adams plans to spend her retirement travelling and concentrating on further study. “I’ve joined the University of the Third Age and I’m going to several classes there,” she said. “I’m hoping to start a class called, ‘Science for grandparents’, so that should be good.”

ttracting people of all ages to the sport of bowls is the aim of a Horsham City Bowling Club come-and-try day on Sunday.

Club secretary Betty Cozens said the event, from 11am, would offer a prime opportunity for people across Horsham district to learn about the sport. “I’ve been involved in bowls for 20 years and had a tremendous amount of enjoyment from playing the game,” she said.

“It can be very competitive, and you travel around and meet different people. “The sport has always been known as an older person’s game, but certainly it would be wonderful to have some younger ones get involved too.” Mrs Cozens said a trend of people moving to rural and regional Victoria due to the COVID-19 pandemic represented an opportunity to attract new members. She said bowls was a ‘fantastic’ way for newcomers to integrate into

Have you ever thought about playing bowls but weren’t sure if it was for you? Well now is your chance to have a go! Bring the whole family for a day out and have a try, with bowls provided and everyone can have a go. If they can hold the bowl they can play! Door prizes and raffles being drawn every hour with lots of great prizes from local businesses. There will be plenty of kids activities including jumping castles and face painting.

a community. “We’re all talking about people coming from the city and having a tree change, so if there are any people who fit into that category and would like to come along and meet people, bowls is a great way to get involved in the community,” she said.

Get involved

“It’s also an opportunity to be active as you get into your older years. It very important health-wise but also for intermingling with other people.” Mrs Cozens said the event was

part of the club’s plans to tackle a broader downward trend in bowls participation across the Wimmera.

A barbecue, face painting for children and a jumping castle will also be part of the event.

“Bowls in general is not attracting new members.

The club plans to draw raffles throughout the day, with plenty of prizes on offer from Horsham businesses.

“The only new members we seem to get are people who have retired and moved into Horsham,” she said. “It’s getting harder and harder to attract new members, so it’s very important we are able to organise events like this that will attract new members.”

Entry into the event is a gold coin donation and the first 100 children to arrive will receive a ‘lucky dip’ on entry. Adults will also receive a free raffle ticket on entry.

Yarriambiack Shire Council is among national finalists in 2021 Municipal Association of Victoria Technology Awards for Excellence. The council has made the final six for a Digital Leadership Achievement of the Year category for its Council Information and Community Technology Business Transformation project. The annual awards recognise how councils are transforming and providing services to communities in the digital era. MAV president Cr David Clark said finalists reflected ‘terrific’ council work enabling a cultural and technology shift. “Across the sector, especially in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, councils have embraced digital solutions as a way to maintain

high levels of community service in difficult circumstances,” he said. In its category, Yarriambiack council is up against City of Burnside, Cardinia Shire Council, City of Darwin, City of Melbourne and Melton City Council. The awards feature five categories and finalists from across Australia. Other categories are Customer Experience, Collaboration or Partnership, Smart City and Strategy and Planning. Officials will announce category winners at MAV’s Awards for Excellence dinner at Marvel Stadium, Melbourne on April 29. The dinner is part of a MAV Technology Champions of Change National Conference. Winners will be eligible for Victorian and Australian Achievements of the Year awards.

Association project manager Mark Fletcher said community activity across the Wimmera-Mallee would have generated millions of dollars. “It was fantastic to see the influx of visitors to the Wimmera-southern Mallee – and those travelling through – right across the Easter break,” he said. “Particularly after the COVID lockdowns of last Easter, seeing our towns and businesses and leisure spaces buzzing with people was a joy to see.” Mr Fletcher said Wimmera Development Association led a study of cancelled events in the early part of COVID lockdowns last year – including Easter – that showed the region had missed out on thousands of visitors. “That represented a loss of visitor spend and income that was in the millions of dollars,” he said.

“A year on, we know that people want to get out and about – and they have money to spend. “The traffic and visitors this year shows the opportunity for our region to capitalise on and maximise business opportunities while people are looking to tour their local area with family and friends, or to travel domestically.” Mr Fletcher’s comments followed a plea from Grampians Tourism chief executive Marc Sleeman for businesses to explore ways of capitalising on a growing regional profile. Mr Sleeman said last week that thousands of people coming to the region during the four-day break led to a breaking of visitation records and represented a major economic boost in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. He said the Easter weekend took ‘visitation capacity’ to a new level and feedback was that residents had never seen the region so ‘full’. “We need to make sure we’re tailoring our product to ensure people come back,” he said. Mild and sunny autumn weather provided an ideal backdrop for Easter activities that unfolded from Ararat and Stawell in the region’s southeast to Jeparit and Warracknabeal in the north.

Dark matter probe on course A

state ministerial party visiting the region has heard that underground scientific work to explore the mysteries of ‘dark matter’ in Stawell might start later this year.

Regional Development Minister Mary-Anne Thomas, who visited the Stawell Gold Mine site of Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory, also heard that some experimental projects were already underway. Ms Thomas used the visit to Stawell last week to announce the start of construction of the laboratory and that Ballarat contractor H. Troon would lead the project build. Expectations are that the construction of the laboratory will be complete by the end of the year. Ms Thomas joined University of Melbourne Vice Chancellor Professor Duncan Maskell and Centre of Dark Matter Particle Physics director Elisabetta Barberio at an announcement ceremony. Work at the laboratory, one of only two of its kind globally, will include investigating various aspects of dark matter, which remains one science’s great mysteries despite occupying most of the universe. The potentially breakthrough work, involving Australian and international scientists, requires cutting-edge research and the particle-interference-free environment offered from a deep underground environment. Professor Maskell provided insight into the motivation behind the project. “Dark matter holds galaxies together. If we understand it, we will understand how the universe evolved from the Big Bang to now, and how it might continue to evolve,” he said. The laboratory, SUPL, will place the Wimmera

and Stawell in a unique position in international science, while at the same time provide an economic boost to the regional community. Expectations are that the laboratory will lead to the creation of 79 full-time-equivalent direct and indirect jobs during the first 10 years of operation. It might also open the door for value-adding projects in Stawell based on education and tourism. Northern Grampians mayor Murray Emerson said the project was entering an exciting stage. “It is something that has never happened in the southern hemisphere and I’m very excited to see how it eventuates,” he said. “Perhaps one day one of our budding students might become a professor of physics and end up working in that environment. “This development could represent lifetimes of research and that could certainly have a profound impact on the world, let alone Australia, the Wimmera and Stawell.” The state and commonwealth governments have both invested $5-million towards the project. Ms Thomas said the project was important and would showcase Victoria’s commitment to cutting-edge research to the world. “It will also put Stawell on the global map as well as creating more jobs in regional Victoria,” she said.

SUPPORT: Rural Northwest Health exercise physiologist Abby Roberts works with a patient. Picture: RACHEL DECKERT

Free wellbeing program People affected by cancer living in Warracknabeal district have access to a free eight-week education, exercise and wellness program. Cancer Council Victoria’s Cancer Wellness and Exercise program provides people who have completed their cancer treatment with one-hour group fitness sessions with experienced exercise physiologists. An education session follows the weekly fitness activity. Cancer Council Victoria’s cancer information and support services head Katherine Lane said the program provided invaluable support and information for people recovering from cancer. “We often hear that cancer patients can have trouble adjusting to life after their treatment ends,” she said. “The reality is physically and emotionally complex and finding a ‘new normal’ can be incredibly challenging.” Ms Lane said research showed exercise rehabilitation programs helped cancer survivors manage pain, reduce fatigue and improve their

quality of life. “This program will provide people affected by cancer with everything they need to get back into exercise and to deal with changes in their lives at home and at work,” she said. On average, medical authorities diagnose 58 people in Yarriambiack Shire with cancer each year. Rural Northwest Health will host the program, designed to help participants to increase their strength and fitness; improve their ability to perform daily tasks; learn to cope with life; and connect with others. Exercise physiologist Abby Roberts added the program could help with a variety of issues. “It helps cancer survivors to manage their fatigue, improve their mood and increase their strength and endurance,” she said. “Being part of a group environment encourages that social connection with each other.” People can register for the program or access for more information by emailing Ms Roberts at abby.roberts@rnh.net.au.

Prostate nurse offering support

immera men with prostate cancer can access specialised support closer to home after a Horsham cancer centre recruited the region’s first prostate cancer specialist nurse.

Higher risk

Cancer foundation chief executive Jeff Dunn said men living in rural and regional parts of Australia who were diagnosed with the disease were at higher risk of death. “Of concern to the growing burden of prostate cancer on the Australian community, men with a family history of prostate cancer have double the risk of being diagnosed, and men in regional and rural areas of Australia face a 24 percent higher risk of death,” he said. “About one in five men with prostate cancer experience long-term anxiety and depression and many will struggle to cope with the challenges of diagnosis and treatment. Specialist nurses play a critical role in providing guidance, care and support.” People can call Ms Johns at Wimmera Cancer Centre on 5381 9169 for more information or Wimmera Prostate Cancer Support Group leader Brian Nagorcka on 0448 710 628 for support.

Mandy Johns will work with health-care teams at Wimmera Cancer Centre to help men affected by the disease as part of Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia’s Specialist Nursing Service. She will work alongside oncology nurse practitioner Carmel O’Kane and the team at Wimmera Cancer Centre, visiting medical oncologists and urologist Richard McMullin. Ms Johns said she was honoured to fill an essential role in the Wimmera to help diagnose, spread awareness and reduce effects of prostate cancer. “I am available on a community level to provide general awareness on prostate health, and for those diagnosed with prostate cancer providing information and support regarding treatment options, managing side effects as well as supportive care to their partners and families,” she said. “My catchment area encompasses Northern Grampians, Horsham, Hindmarsh, West Wimmera and Yarriambiack municipalities.” Ms Johns encouraged men to come forward for a health check, with early detection of prostate cancer critical to providing effective treatment. “It is possible to reduce your risk of prostate cancer, therefore it is imperative that men are aware of their risk factors and prostate health in general,” she said. “And contrary to widespread belief, it’s a simple blood test, so I encourage men to make an appointment and have the conversation with

their GP.” Cancer foundation nursing programs director Sally Sara said Ms Johns was a welcome addition to the service. “Good support and connection to information and services is incredibly important in a diagnosis of prostate cancer,” she said. “The Wimmera Cancer Centre commitment will vastly improve the support available to local men and families impacted by the disease, giving men much greater confidence that they can navigate the challenges of prostate cancer with all the support they need.” Prostate cancer is the most common cause of cancer in Australian men, with about 16,700 men newly diagnosed annually. Each year in Australia about 3152 men will die from the disease.

Retail hub a step closer V

ictorian Regional Development Minister Mary-Anne Thomas has used a visit to the Wimmera to inspect the progress of a major Rupanyup Community Retail Hub.

Ms Thomas joined Yarriambiack Shire Council and business representatives on the visit to the site, with work on an anchoring supermarket on track to be finished by the end of this financial year. The retail hub project has attracted $500,000 in State Government funding. Yarriambiack Shire Council is providing $400,000 for the project and Rupanyup-Minyip Community Bank has also been a funding partner. The government provided the money through its Regional Infrastructure Fund, part of its flagship Regional Jobs and Infrastructure Fund. Ms Thomas noted how the project, employing about 35 tradespeople during construction, was generating work in the rural farming community. Plans are that the supermarket will employ six full-time equivalent staff when completed, offering employment opportunities to district people. Work started on the supermarket in October last year. Enterprise Rupanyup, ERup, is driving the Rupanyup Community Retail Hub project and working on a partnership with prospective supermarket operators. The organisation is also

exploring second and third stages of the project, subject to funding, that include open public areas and extra retail spaces to further develop the hub precinct. ERup chair Malcolm Uhe said the project was ‘progressing nicely’. “We envisage construction to be finished in early July and then for it to be fitted out with shelving and stock and probably opening about SeptemberOctober,” he said. Ms Thomas said the Regional Jobs and Infrastructure Fund helped businesses create jobs in regional Victoria, support community projects and aided municipal councils to develop cultural projects of economic significance. “We are making sure our regional communities have the infrastructure they need to thrive – attracting more people to live, work and invest in regional Victoria,” she said. Labor Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford added, “Rupanyup is a mighty town, with much to offer for both tourists and residents – it’s great to see the significant investment the community is making to enhance the liveability of the region, and a fullservice supermarket is a great place to start.”

National pony show a success Organisers of the Australian Palouse Pony Association National Show are celebrating the success of the first event in Horsham, along with several regional winners. Victorian show manager Karen Fischer, of Drung, said 18 ponies vied for a swag of prizes at Riverside Recreation Reserve. “It went extremely well. Everyone had an absolute blast and went home with trophies galore,” she said. “We had awesome sponsorship and support and were lucky to be able secure the event in Horsham.” Mrs Fischer said some competitors showed their ponies for the first time. “Two youths who had never showed before did an awesome job

and the judge was very impressed. That’s what it’s all about. We need to support our youth to keep the sport going,” she said. Mrs Fischer was among the major prizewinners, with her mare Kerrinna Dancin’ With Myself claimng Super Supreme of the Show. “She actually took out the supreme harness as well, along with overall performance pony of the show,” she said. “The judge loved everything about her. “She’s a very special little pony to me. Jonathon Whitehead showed using my ponies and he won overall youth of the show. He’s from Nhill.” Mrs Fischer said many of the

event’s trophies remained in the Wimmera. “Kirsty and David Haigh from Telopea Downs won supreme in the bigger pony and two of mine won the other supreme awards, for small pony and the little bit bigger pony,” she said. Boundary Bend’s Deb Adcock won supreme and best colour pony awards. Mrs Fischer will now head to Adelaide to compete in the South Australia Appaloosa Championships, which run from tomorrow to Sunday. “There are about three or four shows left for me if it all goes according to plan,” she said. – Sarah Matthews

Roll-out, property prices affect quarter T

he global COVID-19 jabfest gathered pace with some countries, including Israel and the United Kingdom, achieving high rates of immunisation.

However, the roll-out has had some issues. Some countries suspended the use of AstraZeneca vaccine for a period of time and Australia was also slow off the mark with its immunisation roll-out. The longer it takes to vaccinate the world, the slower the economic recovery. Pushing COVID-19 off the front pages was the big jump in residential property prices. Nationally, CoreLogic’s home-value index jumped 5.8 percent for the quarter. Sydney led the jump with a 6.7 percent lift. In March alone the index rose 2.8 percent, the biggest rise in 32 years. Most of the action was on the first-home and owner-occupiers front, though investor purchases were also up. The main fuel being added to the property price fire is ongoing low interest rates. With the Reserve Bank of Australia indicating rates will most likely remain low for years, that could continue to inflate property values and see more people priced out of the market. Helping to fuel the market was good employment numbers. Seasonally adjusted, the Australian Bureau

FINANCE

focus

with Robert Goudie CFP Dip FP Consortium Private Wealth

of Statistics reported an unemployment rate of 5.8 percent in February, down from 6.3 percent in January. However, this counts people on JobKeeper as employed. Taking this into account, Roy Morgan put unemployment at 13.2 percent in February, with 21 percent of the workforce either unemployed or under-employed.

Blocked artery

In late March the container ship Ever Given provided a graphic example of how small things can have a huge impact. Strong wind gusts saw the giant ship wedge itself bank to bank across the Suez Canal, one of the world’s main shipping arteries. Suddenly 30 percent of world container shipping ground to a halt. Fortunately, the ship was freed after a few days, and the backlog of ships was cleared a few days after that. But it was a stark reminder of the vulnerability of large parts of the economy. The pace of recovery in the local and international share markets slowed during the quarter as prices

crept close to or exceeded their pre-pandemic levels. The S&P/ ASX200 rose 3.1 percent, trailing the MSCI All-Country World Equity Index, which was up 4.2 percent. Tech shares ran out of puff with the NASDAQ only gaining 1.4 percent, while the S&P500 surged late in the quarter to gain 6.1 percent. Many countries are experiencing third and fourth waves of COVID-19, and it’s a fair bet the virus will continue to dictate the way we live for some time. But it’s not the only game in town. US President Joe Biden has taken climate change off the back burner and moved it front and centre. That means our government and businesses will need to pay it more attention too. Expect carbon tariffs to become a hot topic. On the local front, with interest rates all but ruled out as a tool for managing the residential property boom, talk is turning to the use of regulatory methods to dampen demand. These could involve requiring bigger deposits or limiting the rate of credit growth. And with JobKeeper now wound up, employment figures will come under close scrutiny. Expect to see a jump in unemployment this quarter. • The information provided in this article is general in nature only and does not constitute personal financial advice.

MATES: Stawell West Primary School student Lhanz and mentor Param Kathiramalay enjoy afternoon tea at a program launch in Stawell.

MATES program expands A mentoring program with a focus on teaching new skills and building selfconfidence in primary and secondary school students has launched in Stawell. Central Grampians Local Learning and Employment Network, CGLLEN, leaders visited Stawell West Primary School and Stawell Secondary College to give students an opportunity to meet their new mentors as part of the organisation’s MATES mentoring program. Wimmera Southern Mallee LLEN originally developed the program to match nominated students with a positive role model from the community. GGLLEN received a Northern Grampians Shire Council community grant to run its own pilot program in 2021. CGLLEN acting executive officer Jane Moriarty said the program would help young people learn new skills, connect with the community and build

self-confidence. “We are so excited to launch MATES in the Central Grampians region and connect our youth with people who will take an interest in their personal growth and development,” she said. “It’s all about providing young people with someone they can talk to and learn from outside of home and school.” Mentor Nerissa Gee said she was looking forward to participating in the program. “Everyone had a great time getting to know each other at the launch and we are excited to reconnect after the school holidays,” she said. Students and mentors will meet once a fortnight during school hours to participate in some of their shared interests. People who would like to volunteer their time as a mentor can call CGLLEN on 5352 3266.

Heat your house in style With the impending onset of what could well be a long, cold Wimmera winter, it is the perfect time for everyone to prepare or upgrade their homes to meet their heating needs. After the heat of summer and mildness of autumn, sudden cold snaps leading into longer periods of dropping temperatures can often catch us by surprise. Brrr! Having good household climate-control and heating systems is essential for our temperate weather and the technology and innovations now available have most circumstances covered. To gain an insight into the scope and availability of today’s heating systems, as well as tapping into a great deal, there is no better destination than Wade’s in Horsham where people can find the right system for the right circumstance. An autumn product sale is underway and Wade’s in Pynsent Street is fully stocked and set for what many predict will be the biggest year on record for wood fireplace sales. Manufacturers supplying Wade’s have ramped up production to ensure Wimmera customers have a clear choice in selecting the best and most modern wood-heater products for the winter season. Jetmaster Group general manager Ashley Stride, working with Wade’s throughout the sale period, said there was now an expectation for people to make their homes

Adrian Wade from Wade’s

not only as comfortable, but as welcoming as possible. “COVID-19 has taught us that the home is no longer a simple drop-in place where you sleep and eat. “It’s now a place where you want to invite friends and family,” he said. “The addition of a high-quality, efficient and modern fireplace can make all the difference in trans-

forming your house to a home and a welcoming destination. “For sale items, Wade’s will be offering discounts on Heat and Glo gas fires and Jetmaster Wood fires and the option of either a free standard flue kit or free VisionLINE smokeless outdoor fire pit with every Quadra Fire or VisionLINE wood fireplace sold – that is simply an outstanding offer that anyone looking to upgrade their heating

requirements should consider.” Wade’s have a variety of heating products including Heat and Glo, for householders keen to get the most realistic gas-log fire that’s available or if they are looking for heat efficiency, it is hard to go past Quadra-Fire, Australia’s most efficient fireplace. Then, when looking for a modern architectural fireplace to reflect modern style, there is the cut-

ting-edge VisionLine, which also has long burn times. And of course there are the Jetmaster open wood fireplaces, available in multiple sizes, making them perfect for outdoor areas or formal lounge rooms. The team at Wade’s encourages everyone to come into their showroom to see the range.

Electric update More kit, new styling, added range

yundai Motor Company Australia, HMCA, has announced the pricing and specification of its facelifted Kona Electric small SUV range, which now kicks off from an even $62,000 plus onroad costs for the Elite variant.

The new entry price marks an increase of $1260 for the Elite, while the top-spec Highlander has risen $710 to $66,000 plus costs. In exchange for the increased asking price, HMCA has increased the standard specification of both variants, starting with an expansion of the SmartSense active safety suite. All new Kona Electrics will now come as standard with lane following assist, blind spot collision avoid-

ance assist, rear cross-traffic collision avoidance assist, safe exit warning and rear occupant alert. However spec upgrades don’t stop there, with other standard kit now including an eight-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system, a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster to pair with the existing 8.0-inch infotainment system, wireless phone charging, rear USB power outlet, rear view monitor, and remote start. The new digital instrument cluster expands the list of available trip computer information and can adapt its theme to the selected drive mode, while the rearview monitor allows the rear camera to remain on constantly while driving. Highlander variants meanwhile add

heated rear outboard seats and ambient lighting. Hyundai has also applied a light facelift to the Kona Electric, with revised LED daytime running lights and more sharply designed headlights, with the headlight bezel now incorporating reflector technology. The usually black wheelarches have been changed to match the body colour, while aerodynamics have been improved slightly with the introduction of vertical air inlets in front of the wheelarches that reduce turbulence around the wheels. New 17-inch machined face alloy wheels add a classy look while at the rear, the tail-lights have also been stretched horizontally and a revised bumper has been included.

As a result of the new exterior refresh, the overall length of the Kona electric has been increased by 25mm. The all-electric powertrain has been carried over in the facelift however Hyundai has managed to extract an extra 35km of driving range, now up to 484km. The improvements have been helped by the fitment of Michelin Primacy4 low rolling resistance tyres. For reference, the Kona Electric uses a 64kWh battery that channels power to the front wheels only via an axlemounted electric motor. Outputs are pegged at 150kW/395Nm with the Kona Electric’s V-Max listed at 167kmh. Options on the revised Kona Electric include premium paint for $595, black-grey interior trim at $295, and a

black two-tone roof which is a no-cost option, but requires the deletion of the standard sunroof. Service intervals are pegged at every 12 months or 15,000km – whichever comes first – while the Kona Electric comes with HMCA’s standard fiveyear, unlimited-kilometre warranty. Through the first quarter of the year, HMCA sold a combined 1462 examples of the Kona, marking a healthy 31.6 percent improvement over the same period last year. Its 1462 sales are enough for second in the highly competitive small SUV segment, behind only the MG ZS, 1510, and ahead of the likes of the Mazda CX-30, 1225, and Nissan Qashqai, 1003. – Robbie Wallis

Toyota reveals next-gen GR 86

oyota has at long last debuted its new-generation 86 coupe which has shed its ‘GT’ moniker in favour of the expected ‘GR’ nomenclature, bringing the affordable little sportscar into line with the bigger GR Supra and GR Yaris.

MORE POWER: The new Toyota GR 86 boasts a few extra kilowatts over its Subaru BRZ twin. Visually, the new model predictably resembles its Subaru twin from all angles save for the front fascia, which has been given a far more square and serious look than the relatively smiley BRZ. To our eyes at least, the front end looks a bit like a scaled down, production-ready Nissan Z Proto. Unlike the exterior, the interior

sticks much closer to the current model’s layout with seemingly just a few tweaks made here and there to improve the cabin’s ergonomics, with the familiar mix of grey cloth and leather upholstery, sports seats, rotary climate controls and a high-mounted infotainment screen. While local pricing and specifications are yet to be confirmed, it would

be safe to expect the new GR 86’s pricetag to comfortably undercut the $40,000 mark. Our expectations peg it to offer in the mid-$30,000s given its status as an all-new model with a power bump. “At this stage, we have no announcements to make on introduction timing for the new GR 86 into Australia – these will be provided in due

Sporting an all-new look and engine, the GR 86 is expected to touch down in Australia sometime in the second half of this year, offering fans the one thing they have been longing for: more power. Powered by the same 2.4-litre flat four-cylinder petrol engine as the new Subaru BRZ, the GR 86 produces 173kW/250Nm – 3kW/1Nm more than its Subaru twin and 21kW/38Nm more than the GT 86 it replaces – all of which is still sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission. Toyota has not made any performance claims for the new model yet, but for reference, the current model stops the clock from 0-100kmh in 7.6 seconds. Just like the new BRZ, the GR 86’s body has been made stiffer – torsional rigidity is up ‘approximately’ 50 percent – while the centre of gravity has been lowered thanks to new aluminium roof panels, front wings, new front seats and redesigned mufflers.

course,” a Toyota Australia spokesperson told GoAuto. “We are excited to share the global release information, which is currently the Japanese market prototype vehicle, and although not in a position to confirm local specifications yet, we will provide updates closer to launch.” For reference, the current model starts from $32,180 plus on-roads. According to Toyota Australia sales and marketing vice-president Sean Hanley, the new GR 86 will build on the ‘game-changing’ qualities of its predecessor. “The new GR 86 has been specially designed for sports performance with precise and playful handling, delivering pure driving pleasure and a strong emotional connection between driver and car,” he said. “It is a stylish, compact four-seater that draws on Toyota’s impressive sportscar heritage including the legendary 2000 GT, Celica GT-Four, MR2 and original Supra, as well as its more recent GR siblings.” Toyota Australia sold 83 examples of the current 86 through the first two months of this year, accounting for 7.8 percent of the sub-$80,000 sportscar segment. – Callum Hunter

Not all prisons have walls. Many of us have our own personal prisons. These prisons keep us from having the abundant life that Jesus speaks about and wants for us (John 10:10). Perhaps you are experiencing one of these prisons, prisons that can make our lives a misery: worry, anger, fear, depression, addictions, rejection, resentment, bitterness, unforgiveness to name a few. Pastor Mark Conner writes about some of these in his book “Prison Break.” They keep us bound in chains as strong as any prison walls. In the 4th chapter of Luke’s Gospel Jesus speaks these powerful words: “He (God) has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed.” Jesus came to set us free of anything that holds us captive or controls us. That is the truth. Sometimes we become so used to our prisons that it takes courage and perseverance to ‘make a break’ for freedom – that old proverb “better the devil you know than the devil you don’t know” springs to mind. As a person who was once addicted to prescription medicines I know this to be true. The Good News is that Jesus Christ is there beside us as we begin the journey to freedom, our prison break. To be set free is a beautiful thing and a wonderful gift. Jennifer Pearson, City Heart Church of Christ, Stawell

Cougars win on debut K

Dumesny shot 31 goals as she celebrated her 100th game, while newcomer Liv Jones slotted into the side with ease, delivering a best-on-court performance in centre. The Saints generally need to adapt to a new line-up each season and this year is no exception. They were completely outgunned by the Demons and will look to this week’s match against Pimpinio as an opportunity to settle and start to gel.

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

aniva-Leeor United’s A Grade outfit has its sights set on Swifts following an impressive Horsham District league debut at the weekend.

The wait was finally over for Horsham District netballers starved of competition thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, with juniors and seniors launching their 2021 seasons on Saturday. Kalkee was expecting a tough match against the competition newcomer and for good reason, with the Cougars quickly stamping their authority on proceedings. Kaniva-Leeor took a five-goal lead into the first break, but the Kees managed to peg the deficit back to two goals by half time. The third quarter was neck-and-neck, with neither side willing to give an inch, but it was the Cougars who pulled out the stops in the last term, turning a two-goal advantage into a five-goal victory, 37-32. Centre Ellen Bennett and goal keeper Elizabeth Hawker starred in the win, while Jenna Bywaters – handy up both ends of the court – and defender Clair McDonald battled hard for the Kees. The Kees will look to bounce back in round two against Jeparit-Rainbow, which had a bye in round one because Taylors Lake is not fielding an A Grade team this season. The Cougars will look to continue on their winning way against Swifts, which enjoyed a good battle with Noradjuha-Quantong in round one. The Bombers led the match for the first half, before Swifts levelled the score at the long break. The Bombers shot 16 goals to the Baggies’ 11 in a high-scoring final term to run out victors, 53-48. The return of Shannon Couch after several

Tough start

ON THE BOARD: Kaniva-Leeor United centre Ellen Bennett leads her side to its first victory in Horsham District league. Picture: RILEY KEEL years – and premierships – with Natimuk United has provided the Bombers with the tall target they have been missing. Couch shot 45 of her side’s 53 goals on Saturday. The Bombers were also well served by midcourters Jayne Tucker and Ash McKinnon.

True test

Noradjuha-Quantong’s real test will come this week, of course, when it meets 2019 reigning premier Laharum. The Demons recorded a clinical win over Edenhope-Apsley, 68-15. Spearhead Caitlin

The Tigers had a tough start against an always-strong Harrow-Balmoral, going down by 30 goals, 66-36. Defenders Anna Habel and Deni Sordello battled hard against the Roos’ new-look shooting combination, led by Minyip-Murtoa premiership player Kirby Knight. Knight finished the game with 49 goals, combining well with Lucy King, 17. Versatile Megan Russell made life difficult for the Tigers goalies, while Olivia Muldoon provided plenty of drive in the midcourt. The side is yet to welcome back key defender and coach Ebonie Salter, unavailable last week, who will add further strength against Rupanyup. The Panthers enjoyed their closest encounter with Natimuk United in years in round one, with scores level at half time. The Ewes pulled away in the second half to collect the four points, winning 36-22. They used the opportunity to trial several combinations due to a few changes in personnel this season. Couch’s absence leaves big shoes to fill and it might take the Ewes a little longer than usual to hit their straps. They have a bye this week and will be keen for another hit-out, meeting NoradjuhaQuantong the following week.

HOOKED: Wimmera fisherman Jason Heard reeled in an 85-centimetre Murray Cod while fishing at Taylors Lake.

Heard reels in cod Taylors Lake south-east of Horsham has proven itself to be a prime fishing location after Wimmera anglers hooked themselves an 18-kilogram Murray Cod. Wimmera’s Jason Heard and Kevin Clyne were enjoying a day of boating and fishing on the lake late last week when Mr Heard snagged the 85-centimetre fish. “Young Jason who caught it was yelling ‘jeez, I think I’ve got a stingray here, it’s stuck to the bottom’ when he hooked the fish,” Mr Clyne said. “It took a whole heap of line away from him and it took us about 10 minutes to get it in.” Mr Clyne said it took the pair’s combined efforts to reel the fish into the boat. “We used the net and I thought I almost wouldn’t be able to pull it in because it was so heavy,” he said. The anglers measured the fish before releasing it back into the lake.

Wimmera hockey players ready and raring to go Wimmera hockey players are eagerly looking forward to Saturday when they resume competition a year and a half after the 2020 season was abandoned. The first round of the Wimmera Hockey Association 2021 season will be at Anzac Park, Warracknabeal and competition will be slightly different to recent years. Along with the expected social-distancing requirements, there will be two fewer teams and teams will play

with nine players on the field, down from the usual 11. The absence of Dimboola in under-16s and Warracknabeal in the women’s competition, has introduced a bye into both divisions. The action hits off at 11am, Saturday with a replay of the 2019 women’s grand final between reigning premier Yanac and Dimboola Roos. Of most interest will be Dimboola’s line-up, which will feature several former Warracknabeal players after

an agreement to allow the latter club’s players to continue to be involved despite not fielding a team in its own name. In the other women’s game, Kaniva might prove to be a surprise this season as one of the few teams to have plenty of players on its roster. It takes on Nhill Thunderbirds, which can field a mix of youth and experience but might also struggle for numbers. Horsham Jets have a bye.

Open competition will still feature three games per round with no bye, and the nine-players-per-side format should lead to even contests. It is hard to imagine Yanac Tigers falling far off the pace. Their first-up opponents, Dimboola Burras, have been close to a grand-final appearance in recent seasons and will look to go one better this year. An intense rivalry between Kaniva Cobras and Nhill Rangers will ensure this game will be fiercely contested re-

gardless of personnel. Warrack Hoops will be missing at least a third of its 2019 grand final team, creating an opportunity for the next generation of players to step up. Horsham Hurricanes have struggled to field a consistent starting team for some years, so the pressure for players this season will not work in their favour. This should still prove to be a closely fought match. – Simon King

Mystery as round resumes T

BY DEAN LAWSON

he mystery box that is Wimmera football league will continue to reveal its 2021 secrets when round-one action continues this weekend.

While Stawell and Ararat provided some idea of what their seasons might hold in a regional football icebreaker on Good Friday, questions remain about the preparations of all other combatants. Scuttlebutt that has followed the league since news filtered through that the competition would resume this year is that Minyip-Murtoa might again be the team to beat. But how would anyone really know? It has been a year since many players have kicked a ball in anger and 12 months can be a long time, especially in the development of young talent. And it might well be the next

generation that, sheltered under the wings of its more experienced team-mates, starts to emerge as the most profound of stories. Minyip-Murtoa, for the record, starts its season against Warrack Eagles on Saturday, an ‘eternity’ after the Burras claimed a long-awaited premiership in 2019. At that stage, without knowing what was to come with COVID-19 in 2020, it appeared Minyip-Murtoa was primed for a new stretch of dominance. The Burras will want to make sure the speculation becomes a reality. Warrack Eagles, on the other hand, will have few problems forgetting senior results for 2019. The Eagles finished second bottom, although the team was far from humbled, scoring four wins for the year. The teams and everyone else will know more after Saturday’s ac-

tion at Minyip. Horsham’s fortunes of course will also attract plenty of interest after the Demons play Nhill at Horsham City Oval. The Demons are historically the league’s most successful outfit, although in 2019 they stumbled, finishing sixth and missing a place in the finals. Nhill, which competes against a tyranny of distance as well as opposition clubs, has also attracted a large question mark. Where do the Tigers, who have often drawn on players from South Australia in the past, sit after a year off? Then there is perhaps the most fascinating game this weekend – at Coughlin Park in Horsham where Horsham Saints take on Dimboola. Dimboola, similar to Minyip-Murtoa, has also been the subject of considerable chatter regarding

player movements, while Horsham Saints have also been busy shoring up their ranks.

Netball

How Minyip-Murtoa shapes up this season will also generate plenty of attention in Wimmera netball. A Grade netballers also clinched the 2019 flag, beating Horsham in a thriller, and again it is likely that emerging young players will heavily influence results this year. The clash between the Burras and Warrack Eagles should qualify as match of the round, but a contest between Horsham Saints and Dimboola should also be close. Horsham is a perennial force and will fully test Nhill’s resolve. Southern Mallee Giants will be keen observers of all that happens on both the football fields and netball courts as it sits out with a firstround bye.

CLAAS DRIVE DAYS 30 & 31 March 2021 | 10am - 4pm | Minyip

Lions to meet Bombers in Mininera season opener You’re invited to our CLAAS Drive Days! In the last match of Mininera and District Football League, fans watched Great Western beat Penshurst by five points in the dying minutes of a game at Lake Bolac. It was the 2019 grand final, a long time ago in any footy language and it represented a major achievement for a Great Western team searching

for its first Mininera flag. So where does it leave us now, after a year off due to the virus pandemic? Great Western is reigning tith tle-holder and the first match of its premiership defence will be against 2019 grand-final rival Penshurst. The Lions will be keen to continue what they started in 2019 but

will have plenty of challengers to their throne. The game is one of many across the league signalling a return to st football and netball activities. Ararat’s Alexandra Oval will be abuzz on Saturday, with Ararat Eagles taking on Lismore-Derrinallum.

Moyston-Willaura will welcome Wickliffe-Lake Bolac to Moyston, perennial force Tatyoon will meet Glenthompson-Dunkeld and SMW Rovers will slip across to Macarthur to meet Hawkesdale-Macarthur. Woorndoo-Mortlake has drawn Caramut in its first game.

Panthers to meet Roos in early test R

BY DEAN LAWSON

upanyup has an opportunity to press its case as a Horsham District football force in 2021 when it fronts up against HarrowBalmoral on Saturday.

The Panthers, fresh from a comprehensive 109-point opening-round win over Natimuk United, will meet the Southern Roos at Rupanyup in what looms as an early season indicator. An obviously strong Harrow-Balmoral lived up to expectations last week with a huge 143-point win over Pimpinio and might well be already staking a claim as the team to beat. Rupanyup on the other side of the Wimmera produced a big six-goal second term to shake off the Rams at Natimuk and put the accelerator down with an 11-goal final term. Jack Musgrove sparkled with a seven-goal game while Jesse Jesson shone and others such as Blake Turner, Tim Tyler and Jarryd Graham put up their hands with big games. Harrow-Balmoral, always well in control against Pimpinio, poured on the goals every term in its game, with Will Plush leading the charge and Simon Close and James Staude bagging six goals each, Mitch Grant kicking five and Michael Close four. Will Burbury was also prominent in the contest. This week’s game between the Pan-

IN THE CLEAR: Kalkee’s Oliver Kemp fires out a handball during a Horsham District football opener at Kaniva against Kaniva-Leeor United. Picture: RILEY KEEL thers and Roos is tantalising, especially for a Rupanyup side keen to re-establish itself as a prominent finalist. There are plenty of other intriguing contests set to unfold, with none more interesting than a clash between Laharum and Noradjuha-Quantong at Laharum. Laharum came off second-best to Edenhope-Apsley while the Bombers would have delighted in a solid win over Swifts. Jarrod Kemp flew the flag for the Demons and Tom Crawford was good.

While Shannon Argall kicked five goals, Laharum will need to find more avenues to the sticks to worry the Bombers. Noradjuha-Quantong, with the likes of Tom Magee, three goals, and James Gregg and Dawson Cross on song, finished more than seven goals better than Swifts and would back itself for another win this weekend. Kalkee, meanwhile, having withstood a test of the unknown against newcomer Kaniva-Leeor United, takes on Jeparit-Rainbow in another

fascinating encounter. The Kees were the first in the league to travel to Kaniva and after a gripping struggle for much of the game managed to kick away in the final term to win by 50 points. Only three points separated the teams at the last change but Kalkee produced a seven-goal finish to stamp some authority on the season opener. Simon Hobbs led the way alongside Jasper Gunn, Matt Nield and Deek Roberts, who will again be important, this time against the Storm. Jeparit-Rainbow had to work hard for a 30-point victory over Taylors Lake, forward Peter Weir crucial with his five goals. Jay Kirwood, Ash Clugston and Shane Maslin were also important in claiming the win. The clash between the Kees and Storm at Kalkee should be a beauty. The result from Rainbow suggests a dogged contest is on the way between Taylors Lake and Natimuk United at Dock Lake Reserve. Natimuk United failed to produce the start it wanted last week, despite the efforts of Dylan Bates, Taj Payne and Sam Anson. The coaching brains trust would be working on ways to produce a better goal return in response to the team kicking only five six-pointers. Taylors Lake, while obviously being annoyed with its loss, would take some confidence from the fact it was

not far off the pace, although it too needs more goals. Geoff Jolly, Koby Westerland and Joe Watkins won accolades for the Lakers, who are promising plenty. League debutante Kaniva-Leeor United has finally had time to settle and won’t be too concerned with a first-up loss. The Cougars take on Swifts at North Park in Stawell and would be brimming with enthusiasm. Jonty Brown, Mitch Jones and Luke Bennett topped vote cards on Saturday and fans can expect a few more to join them as the season progresses. Swifts have been quietly preparing for the season and will want a stronger effort this week, especially at home. Todd Matthews was a good player at the weekend, alongside Scott Carey and Nick Pickering. There is a strong suspicion the Baggies won’t take long to hit winning form. At the other side of the league, Edenhope-Apsley might emerge as a competition wildcard and this time tackles Pimpinio at Edenhope. The Saints did enough to comfortably hold off Laharum last week with Dylan Vanzini, Dan Kelly, Carl Slape and Damian Monaghan ticking off good starts. Pimpinio was unfortunate to run into Harrow-Balmoral first up and copped a hiding, but it’s early days and the Tigers will be quick to dismiss the result as ancient history.

Youth and experience Neighbours Gabe Tonks and Andrew Reynolds used home-ground experience to spread-eagle a desperate field of chasers in Stawell and Ararat Cross Country Club’s five-kilometre Rhymney Reef Handicap on Sunday. Sixteen-year-old student Tonks and 39-year-old teacher Reynolds live adjacently on top of the hill overlooking the race start and finish at the bucolic Rhymney Cricket Ground. The course is notorious for the bone-shaking corrugations along Pentlands Creek Road that seem treacherous to the unwary runner, out and back, on a landscape that includes a steep uphill and fast downhill. Despite advice from Reynolds that runners ‘stick to the soft edges’ it was no surprise that he and his young protégé recorded fastest times, with Tonks benefiting from helpful guidance when the youngster almost went the wrong way. Once pre-race handicaps were applied, Tonks was the clear winner in only his fourth club run, with Reynolds relegated to sixth, enabling returning talent Rhonda Rice to slip into second place ahead of gritty veteran, Julie Hertz. Tonks, who trains with Ararat coach Sue Blizzard, has a promising distance-running career ahead, after first realising his potential in five-kilometre fun runs.

“I go alright in three-kilometre cross country at school level, but I think I’m better at five kilometres. I hadn’t run that distance until Parkrun,” he said. The club now ventures to Stawell for a five-kilometre handicap on Sunday.

Father and son

A warm-up in the Lindsay Kent Memorial Fun Run at Stawell was the perfect tune-up for cross-country rookie Drew Christian, who won the first race of his adult life at Concongella on Saturday. Christian’s competitive juices were ignited by a second on debut with Stawell Amateur Athletic Club last month, and he bolted to a decisive win in the 5.5-kilometre handicap with almost a minute to spare from runner-up Elise Monaghan. Earlier, son Cameron had skipped to his maiden win in a one-kilometre sub-junior division with his sister, Claire, 16 seconds behind. Christian has never trained or raced over a distance greater than 10 kilometres. The club heads to Stawell’s Grampians Rail Trail on Saturday, starting at 10am from Hooper Track, for a five-kilometre handicap. Stawell and Ararat Cross Country Club will venture to Stawell for a five-kilometre handicap on Sunday. Fun runners are welcome. – By Keith Lofthouse

Saints to celebrate S

BY DEAN LAWSON

cribes of the time called it a ‘fairytale win’ and all with fond memories of the 1981 Horsham District Football League premiership will have a chance to relive it again this weekend.

Horsham Saints have organised a 40-year reunion of a St Michaels premiership at Coughlin Park Community Centre in Horsham on Saturday. The occasion will coincide with Horsham Saints’ opening-round of the 2021 Wimmera Football Netball League season, against Dimboola.

History tells us that in 1981, underdog St Michaels with the late Eddie Arundell at the helm, won a high-scoring grand-final thriller by 17 points against Natimuk at Horsham City Oval. The press described it as a ‘rags to riches final series’ for the Saints, who had not only earlier lost a qualifying final to the Rams by 106 points, but also trailed in the season finale by 39 points at half time. Ruck-rover Tony Chanter, who switched his boots for sandshoes at half time, was the hero of the day leading a young Saints team, which

also featured profound efforts from Jack and Paul Magee, five-goal Shane Irwin and Don Schulz. Goals from Irwin and Ian Toull put St Michaels in front as the game went into time on and then Carlo Sordello kicked the sealer. In the end, the Saints won 23.17 (155) to Natimuk 21.12 (138). Star rover Gary Jelly coached the Rams and with Jack Schmidt, Chris Toet, Bruce Knight and Billy Lovel was among best players. The dinner will start at noon on Saturday, after an informal get-together, also at Coughlin Park, the night before.

Contest between ladder leaders I

BY DAVID BERRY

f the first half of the season is any indication, all grades associated with Volleyball Horsham’s domestic competitions are in for some great volleyball in the second half.

Heidelberg has assumed top spot on the A Grade ladder after a thrilling win over Volleyroos in round six. It is four points clear of second-placed Phantoms, which are percentage ahead of Shados Inala, with Volleyroos slipping to fourth. Pegasus and Von Steiger Bloods will be out to bridge the gap on the top four when play resumes next week. In B Grade, Von Steiger Shadows, on 28 points, are percentage clear of Waterhammers with both teams sitting on five wins and one loss for the season, followed closely by Heidelberg Masters who are also on five wins and one loss

but are one point behind. Those three teams have put a gap on fourth-placed Von Steiger Boomers and fifth-placed Parma Army. In C Grade, Holy St Pats has established a clear lead on top of the ladder on 30 points, undefeated after six games, with Heidelberg eight points adrift on 22. Murtoa Railway and Bingo Biddies are then on 20 and 19 points respectively. Two young teams in Murtoa Lizards and HTLC Raiders round out the top six. Junior competition has Murtoa Geckos clear on top on 29 points, undefeated after five games, with Phantoms hot on their heels on 26 points. Von Steiger Breakers are third on 19 points and those three teams have put a big gap on the next three younger teams. A scorers clinic involving representatives from all teams will be in Horsham Cycling Club rooms from 7pm to 8.30pm tonight.

Stawell duo wins Golden Putter A Stawell team of Tania Dignan and Naomi Hunter finished with 12-up to win Horsham Golf Club’s women’s four-ball, bestball Golden Putter par event. They won from runners-up Alison Sinclair and Marion Venn from Warrnambool and Terang respectively, with 10up. Third place with 9-up went to Noreen Roiter and Shirley Sproule of Horsham and fourth place, after a three-way countback, went to Marg Moore and Trudy Park, Horsham. Joan Buckley and Kaye Smith were front-nine winners with 5-up and back-nine winners were Jenny Fishburn and Wendy Wathen of Hamilton, 4-up. The event attracted 96 competitors from across the region and beyond. The club is now preparing for a Golf Australia Victorian Women’s Autumn Tournament next week. A four-ball best-ball par will be on May 21.
