Surgeon no to merger Ian Campbell

L

BY DEAN LAWSON

ong-time Horsham surgeon Ian Campbell, OAM, has come out strongly against the idea of a proposed merger between Wimmera and Ballarat health services.

Mr Campbell, Wimmera Health Care Group’s Director of Surgery and a former board member and chair, said a merger would fall well short of resolving issues.

He said it would instead represent a backward step.

“It will lead to loss of local control of services. It will inevitably lead to loss of jobs, particularly in the administration areas to start with, but with ongoing economic rationalisation, other areas might be threatened as well,” he said.

“It will definitely not expand the services that can be provided locally, as

by Victorian standards most of these are actually fairly well met.”

Mr Campbell said the Wimmera hospital and services should instead attract greater attention from state and federal governments.

“A succession of state governments has largely paid lip service to supporting rural hospitals,” he said.

“Horsham hospital’s acute block was one of the cheapest hospitals ever built in Australia at the time and we are now suffering because of this.

“It is further complicated by the case-mix-funding formula for which larger base hospitals, including Horsham, rely on for much of their funding. Smaller hospitals are funded in a different fashion called block funding and it is much easier for them to balance their budgets.

“The reality is that no hospital in Victoria has sustainably balanced its budget on the case-mix-funding formula provided by successive state governments.

“Considerable capital works are required in Horsham just to keep the hospital functioning.

“The current accident and emergency department is physically too small for the patient numbers that go through and to maintain any pretence of patient privacy let alone social distancing to meet COVID or future infection-control requirements.

“The current operating theatres have major deficiencies with air-conditioning, particularly in hot weather, and require a substantial amount of work to improve these up to expected stand-

It has been running community consultation sessions in January and February and calling for public submissions on proposals since November last year.

Mr Campbell said he had ‘made no secret’ to the health-group board and chief executive Catherine Morley that a move to merge with Ballarat would be wrong.

“Horsham District Hospital, then Wimmera Base Hospital, then Wimmera Health Care Group, has a long and proud history of serving the people of Horsham and surrounding areas,” he said.

“There has always been the intention to provide world-class treatment locally for as many people and as many conditions as possible.”

Mr Campbell said issues ranging from ‘continuity of care and looking after your own patients’ to maintaining high levels of clinical governance were major issues.

“The quality of Wimmera healthcare services, based on peer-reviewed publications and acknowledgements, is long and profound. The organisation has been an Australian leader in clinical governance,” he said.

Mr Campbell added that he be-

ards. Wimmera Health Care Group nursing homes in Horsham are also in need of major capital works or replacement.

“Importantly, amalgamation will do nothing to improve any of this. The issues instead require ongoing State Government commitment.”

Mr Campbell said he believed the health-group board had been ‘somewhat defeatist in its attitude to these problems’.

“I don’t believe it is appropriate to ‘chuck the towel in’ and run off to seek help elsewhere,” he said.

“Horsham is big enough to have its own viable health service given appropriate support from both the state and federal governments.

“Despite what has been published by the chief executive and chairperson of Wimmera Health Care Group, I cannot see any long-term advantages in a merger.”

Consultation

Wimmera Health Care Group is exploring ways to enhance a partnership with Ballarat Health Services, including a merger, in response to staffrecruiting issues and the number of Wimmera people travelling to Ballarat for public health services.

lieved Ballarat Health Services Board was ‘expansionist in its views of the world’.

“A takeover of Wimmera Health Care Group would lead to a much bigger budget, which would be controlled through Ballarat,” he said.

“Ballarat is a rapidly growing area and will need substantial capital works and a substantial commitment to ongoing medical and nursing staff just to keep the doors open, without doing anything else for any area west of Ballarat. The smaller health services are going to be very small in terms of percentage of the regional health budget and will find it increasingly difficult to provide appropriate services to their patients.

“The reality is that if a merger goes ahead we will inevitably lose jobs, positions, money and influence to Ballarat.

“I have been a surgeon in Horsham for 34 years. I will be retiring in June and would like to see Wimmera Base Hospital continue to provide a broad spectrum of world-standard medicine and surgery to meet the needs of Horsham and the broader Wimmera.

“I hope our politicians will give this matter further consideration.”

Long journey to ‘live in the light’

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

W

hen asked about his first impression of his new home town, Adel Tannous replied, ‘It’s a good place for a rest’.

While many Wimmera people might at first consider ‘it’s so quiet’ and ‘there’s nothing happening here’ an insult, others understand it is a matter of perspective.

When your country has been embroiled in a civil war for almost a decade, ‘peace and quiet’ takes on an entirely different meaning.

Mr Tannous, 31, and his wife Sara Jabbour, 32, hail from small villages in Syria.

Six and five years ago respectively, they fled to neighbouring Lebanon in search of a better life, before it too descended into crisis.

“It was a very bad situation there. It’s a very big mess,” Mr Tannous said.

“Lebanon is actually amazing, but not now. Maybe in a couple of years.”

Hard-working by nature and willing to try his hand at anything, Mr Tannous is a qualified chef with more than 10 years’ experience.

He was working in catering and restaurant chains in Beirut when the coronavirus pandemic hit.

“It became very hard to find jobs,” Mr Tannous said.

“The Lebanese public find it hard to find jobs and we’re Syrian, so it’s very, very hard to find jobs.”

While life was difficult, there was a silver lining.

The couple was in the process of relocating to Australia thanks to a life-changing program, ‘TBB’.

Talent Beyond Boundaries matches skilled refugees with companies in need of their skills.

The foundation works with governments to open skilled-migration pathways for refugees, designed to benefit individuals, family members, communities and the economy.

“TBB are very amazing people,” Mr Tannous said.

“They help us with everything – to prepare our papers and also the money.

“When Lebanon was locked down, we stayed without work, without jobs, without money for nine months.

“TBB helped with a loan. They were very, very kind with us. I love every one of them.”

Through TBB, Mr Tannous and Ms Jabbour met Wimmera Meat Market owner Dominic van Dyk, who was looking to hire a chef.

“When Dominic talked to me on the phone, it was a very short meeting,” Mr Tannous said.

“It was just five minutes. He asked if I want to go back to Syria and I said, I cannot go back. He asked if I liked meat. I said I

“They’re enjoying what they are doing and people are warming to them – which isn’t hard, because they are always smiling”

love meat, I love cooking meat and I love eating meat.

“He said okay, I will send you the job offer. He told me he would have a place to start my job as a chef when I arrived in Australia.

“I said that I was very excited for that.”

Mr van Dyk said he was thrilled to finally welcome the couple to Horsham last month.

“They were due in March last year, but the day they were supposed to go for their final medical, the Australian embassy shut down because of COVID,” he said.

“The next day, the airport shut down, stopping all international flights.

“They managed to get a flight to Sydney in December, did their quarantine and all their COVID testing and then came here.”

Mr van Dyk said the couple had slotted into the shop with ease, with Mr Tannous working in the kitchen and Ms Jabbour behind the counter.

“They’ve been getting on well with everyone,” he said.

“They’re enjoying what they are doing and people are warming to them – which isn’t hard, because they are always smiling.

“People understand the broken language and they have improved already just from speaking it in the shop.

“People have been welcoming – people here, as a rule, are pretty good.”

A new life

Mr Tannous said he and his wife could not speak highly enough of Mr van Dyk and his role in providing them with a new life in a safe environment.

“I’m happy, because I’m working with Dominic. He is a very lovely man and we are very lucky,” he said.

“Also, we are happy because we are here in Australia. Australia is amazing.

“We have met a lot of people here who are very kind – we are so happy.”

Mr Tannous said he was passionate about his job and was already achieving satisfaction, thanks to creative licence and positive feedback.

“We try to do something in the shop, with Dominic, like preparing more dishes – something from our country’s food and some mixed world foods, like Italian, Mexican and maybe Chinese,” he said.

“The idea is you can come to the butcher and get more than just meat. You can find many types of salads and different dishes.

That’s very nice for the customer.

“Actually, I’m happy right now, because all of the customers told me my food is very amazing.”

GRATEFUL: Chef Adel Tannous and his wife Sara Jabbour are grateful for the support of Wimmera Meat Market owner Dominic van Dyk who has sponsored them through a Talent Beyond Boundaries refugee program.

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER Ms Jabbour, who was studying to become an English teacher while in Syria, said she would study the language in Horsham while working in the shop.

She said she was enjoying her new home, but missed her family.

Ms Jabbour has seen her mother once in the past five years, while Mr Tannous has not seen his family since he left Syria.

“Sara is missing her family a lot. It’s hard. But we can chat to them,” Mr Tannous said.

“I appreciate everything Dominic is doing for us. It was a hard time, but now we are thinking about good times and being successful in the future – making our dreams come true. We are very good right now.

“We were living in the dark, but we now live in the light.”

Mr van Dyk said his contact at TBB had warned him that program participants often questioned whether they had done the right thing in relocating, usually about the sixmonth mark.

“I spoke to Adel about it and he said, Dominic, why would we be upset? Why would we worry? We have everything here.

We’re free,” he said.

“People say Horsham’s boring, but life is what you make it.

“Look at what we’ve got.”

Community on edge in waiting game A

n anxious Wimmera community is waiting with the rest of Victoria to find out the extent of State Government changes to Victoria’s COVID-19 ‘circuitbreaker’ lockdown.

Businesses, many of which had worked hard to rebound after a tough 2020, were desperate to resume trading after harsh level-four restrictions turned traditionally busy trading centres into relative ghost towns.

Community speculation was rife about whether and how the government would lift restrictions. Would there be a return to statewide conditions before the snap lockdown, isolating Melbourne from regional Victoria or by gradually easing back through restriction levels?

The five-day level-four restrictions are the harshest experienced by regional Victorians since the pandemic started.

The extent of the lockdown has attracted a broad mix of reactions, ranging from humble understanding to severe condemnation.

Member for Lowan Emma Kealy said she had grave concerns about the lockdown’s effect on regional economies after speaking with ‘dozens of disillusioned and distressed business owners’.

“Regional Victorian families and

businesses are suffering the consequences of the Andrews government’s ongoing mismanagement of Victoria’s hotel-quarantine and contact-tracing systems,” she said.

“The Premier had reassured Victorians the state’s hotel-quarantine program was one of the leading systems in the country, which made being plunged back into lockdown by another breach in the system a bitter pill to swallow.

“There’s no excuse for failing to do the work to improve contact tracing and quarantine systems to ensure that an outbreak in the city won’t require a statewide closure. But again, regional businesses are collateral damage.

“Victorians have always been prepared to do what’s needed to get this virus under control, but wholesale closures should be a last resort. With the right systems in place we should be able to keep our businesses open while also protecting public health.”

Events

The lockdown also hit major community events and gatherings across the region.

Volunteers and businesses involved in a unique 150km Feast at Horsham’s Maydale Reserve were among event organisers awaiting government announcements on the lockdown.

Horsham Agricultural Society exec-

PLAN B: 150km Feast organiser Andrea Cross has moved to plan B, back-to-back events on February 27 and 28. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER utive administrator Andrea Cross said the two-night event, originally scheduled for Saturday night and February 27, had gone to a plan-B back-to-back event on February 27 and 28.

Mrs Cross said there were also plans C, D and E based on what Premier Andrews announced, but all involved in the regional food and services celebration were hoping for a quick return to previous guidelines.

“We’ve had to quickly pivot in what I can tell you has been one of my most emotionally draining experiences,” she said.

“We have three other plans up our sleeves, but hopefully we don’t have to use any of them.

“Although the event started this weekend we’ve lost five days of critical labour and set-up. We wouldn’t have had time to finish setting up our hay-bale dining room and it would have left our chefs only two days of preparation time.

“But putting the first day back a week we can all work towards the physical set-up of the event and cooking – that’s if the bans are lifted this week.

Webster: What’s the deal on mergers?

Federal Member for Mallee Anne Webster has used a visit to Horsham to call on the State Government to declare why Victorian regional health groups feel they need to explore mergers to provide basic services.

Dr Webster said people needed to know whether there was any behind-the-scenes State Government direction involved in the moves.

“What is the State Government planning? What is the government’s strategic purpose in some of these moves?” she said.

“The government has to be honest with rural and regional communities and I suspect it has its own agenda.”

Dr Webster stressed the State Government needed to take responsibility for health systems and processes.

“It must come forward and declare its official position or intended agenda,” she said.

“It needs to articulate what is happening to regional Victorians, who are not second-class citizens.”

Dr Webster made the comments amid

Wednesday, February 17, 2021

growing community debate about a ‘merger’ – part of a Wimmera Health Care Group exploration into developing a greater partnership with Ballarat Health Services.

She said there was also speculation about the potential of other health-service mergers involving Bendigo and Mildura.

“I’m hearing a great deal of concern in the Wimmera and it seems to be that people are concerned that a consultative process has been a bit tokenistic,” she said.

Dr Webster urged Wimmera health group leaders to ‘slow down, go back to the drawing board and back to the community’ to gain a clearer picture of what a merger might mean.

“I’m curious as to whether there is some form of serious centralisation agenda behind all this – when we all know that is not what rural communities want,” she said.

Horsham Rural City Council, meanwhile, also added its concerns about the Wimmera-Ballarat merger proposal.

The council fears an amalgamation might ultimately erode clinical services in Horsham and the Wimmera generally.

Horsham mayor Robyn Gulline said the council wanted to explore whether Wimmera Health Care Group could strengthen service capabilities and create better health outcomes through other governance arrangements.

She said this included strengthening the role of Wimmera Southern Mallee Health Alliance.

“We need to get the critical mass in our region to make the services more efficient and to attract the required skills,” she said.

“The council is of the view that we should be jointly lobbying state and federal governments to support the Wimmera Health Care Group to deliver services required.”

Cr Gulline said mayors of six municipal councils in the region had sought a meeting with the Victorian Health Minister to discuss concerns.

“There needs to be a concerted advocacy effort for funding, which reflects the regional role Wimmera Health Care Group plays,” she said.

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

“The event is sold out of its 300 tickets, but with us going to plan B, the Sunday night does not suit everyone, which means some tickets have become available.

“I have already had people contact me for tickets if they became available. Until we hear the announcement we won’t be moving on that.

“For people to call me and show empathy as it unfolded was so supporting. I’m working with 60 volunteers and it was just really humbling.”

Mrs Cross said the event was earmarked as a financial ‘lifesaver’ to help the society plan for its 2021 agricultural show.

“If that opportunity is whipped away it will have a significant impact on our future and future of events we can host at the showgrounds,” she said.

Circumstances also forced Blue Ribbon Foundation Horsham branch to postpone its annual gala ball, originally scheduled for Horsham Golf Club on Saturday night.

Branch secretary Kelly Schilling said the outcome was disappointing considering the event had attracted 166 patrons and had involved significant planning.

“But all sponsors are happy to continue the partnership and we’re now assessing a new date pending restrictions. When it does happen it will be a great event,” she said.

Merger response momentum grows

W

hat has become obvious in the build-up of anxiety surrounding future Wimmera health-service operations is that it can take considerable time for people to digest, assess and respond to important information.

Wimmera Health Care Group’s management board announced in early November last year that an exploration into a merger with Ballarat Health Services to improve clinical services was ‘on the table’.

At the same time, it also started inviting community submissions to gain an understanding about what people across the region thought about establishing a greater partnership between the organisations.

It would be fair to say that in the countdown to Christmas after a year dominated

by COVID-19, a community focus was probably elsewhere.

Three months have passed and it has

EDITORIAL

By Dean Lawson only been in the past fortnight that a vocal groundswell against the merger idea has seriously surfaced – to a point that it is suddenly bubbling over the edge.

For some in positions of acute understanding and authority, concern has been brewing from the start. But for others, it seems there has been a sudden revelation that the concept is ‘fair dinkum’ and what it all might ultimately mean if it happens.

Wimmera Health Care Group board at least would now be under no illusions about the depth of negative community sentiment surrounding the idea.

Regardless of the outcome of debate, now finally gaining momentum, the obvious question remains about how to fill shortfalls in medical services a region the size of the Wimmera and southern Mallee demands.

History tells us the health service has a shining national reputation but that, it seems, is not enough and there will be a need for some ingenuity to find a formula acceptable to all.

Although the Wimmera-Ballarat proposal would be a ‘voluntary’ merger, many in the community can’t help but feel they have been left to find a ‘local’ solution to a problem that comes under state and federal responsibility.

In reality, the underpinning issue can’t help but smell of government neglect or at least ambivalence to appropriate public hospital and health-service needs in the state’s west.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Loss of autonomy

SIR, – Thanks to Bill Ower for bringing our attention to the dangerous proposal of a merger between Wimmera Health Care Group and Ballarat Health Services.

Bill correctly points out the loss of autonomy in management with all major decisions being made in Ballarat.

There are likely to be all sorts of promises about extensive consultation with locals and so on, but I have been around the block enough times to know those promises mean nothing.

Already the so-called consultation process for the merger is set up to exclude people, as Bill also points out.

If this is to be the start of an extensive amalgamation process in the health sector in western Victoria, what happens to the smaller, but no-less vital, outlying services such as Rural North West Health and West Wimmera Health Services?

Having swallowed WHCG and centralised management in Ballarat, Ballarat Health Services could then vacuum up the smaller services, which would then have an extraordinarily small say in the management of their local health.

To my mind the way forward would be to develop closer links and collaboration between WHCG, Rural Northwest Health, West Wimmera Health Service and so on with a view to a potential amalgamation between these local services should that be necessary – always remembering that local decision making is paramount.

In this way, should there be a push from the Victorian Department of Health for an amalgamation process we would at least have a larger critical mass in western Victoria before any merger with Ballarat Health Services would occur.

By all means encourage more collaboration between Wimmera Health Care Group and Ballarat Health Services. There is no

Wednesday, February 17, 2021

doubt much to be gained by closer co-operation, but we must maintain our autonomy. If the Wimmera Health Care Group board gives up our identity and autonomy, how do we get it back?

Russell McKenzie, Haven

Under our control

SIR, – I add my objection and dismay to many community voices at the proposal to merge Wimmera and Ballarat health services.

We need to keep our community health service-delivery under our own control and not let a ‘suburb of Melbourne’, under significant direction from Melbourne, be given further opportunity to make Horsham less able to make decisions on what is best for us.

A resounding ‘no’ to this proposal is the only justified outcome.

We in Horsham are most appreciative of the excellent service and care we receive from our established Wimmera health provider.

If the issues that are of concern are only financial, then let us deal with them.

Any merger proposal with Ballarat should be replaced with continuing and improved Horsham community strategies to support and enhance our hospital and we should be looking west and north to ensure that support for Wimmera Base Hospital is forthcoming.

We do not want to be another satellite of Ballarat or Geelong as with the TAFE college, VicRoads, Medicare Local, wastmanagement group and other services that have been merged, with loss of local input and local employment.

I suspect there are other issues of state politics and power-control that are at play here. If the driver to this proposal is not financial and an attempt to improve specialist medical services being available in Horsham, then start a strong effort to gain

support for a regular air service.

I suggest two days a week for a start – when health-care specialists and others could program flying to Horsham, which is one hour from Essendon, and return to Melbourne the same day. That would be a positive for many opportunities for our community and for the wider Wimmera.

It’s time to think outside the box and we must not continue to degrade ourselves of local control and again become answerable to Ballarat.

This proposal needs to be cancelled.

David Eltringham, OAM, Horsham

Stand united

SIR, – We write as very concerned citizens of the proposed amalgamation of the Wimmera Health Care Group and Ballarat Health Services.

Wimmera Health Care Group is an important provider of health services to Horsham and the wider Wimmera community.

We feel there has been a lack of communication and consultation regarding this proposal and call on WHCG board to extend the community consultation period to allow the Wimmera community to have its say on the future of this vital service.

We are also calling on our community across the Wimmera, whether they be local governments, businesses and associations, hospital-support groups, service clubs, sporting groups, churches and so on to write to the WHCG board about their concerns. Submissions can be made by writing to Partnership Proposal, Wimmera Health Care Group, 83 Baillie Street, Horsham, 3400, or email partnering@ whcg.org.au Action is required now before it is too late to give up one of our most vital services for us living in the Wimmera.

Housing model opening new doors Y

BY DYLAN DE JONG

arriambiack municipal leaders are confident a council-led housing proposal in the WimmeraMallee shire will become a template for other rural councils in meeting affordable housing demand.

The council is planning a $4-million project to build 14 two-bedroom units in five Yarriambiack towns, aimed at a retiree demographic.

Mayor Graeme Massey and chief executive Jessie Holmes will meet with planning minister Richard Wynne later this month to seek funding for the project from the State Government’s $5.3-billion Big Housing

Build program. “We have our provisions in place in relation to the land and planning permit and we have the designs for what the plans will look like, so we’re shovel ready,” Ms Holmes said.

“Even though we’re not a housing authority – we have demonstrated and proven a critical need for affordable housing in our shire.”

The plan proposes two units at Woomelang, Hopetoun, Murtoa and Rupanyup and six in Warracknabeal.

Ms Holmes said the project, funded by the council as well as the State Government, had the potential to grow to more than 20 units after 10 to 20 years.

She said if the project was success-

ful, it could be used as a template for other rural councils that struggled to attract private investors.

“If we can demonstrate a model that works, which we have already with an existing seven units, we could then bring that housing stock up,” she said.

“There’s then opportunities for the money made through rent to be invested in more units.

“It could be a self-funding model, which could be used as a model for small councils.”

Ms Holmes said it would be critical for the council to take a proactive approach to supply affordable housing stock to attract private investors to its towns.

Sides of Quality Two-Tooth POSITIVE: Emily Farrugia and her daughter Frankie Newell are hopeful the Murtoa by Twilight market will go ahead this weekend.

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Murtoa by Twilight returns Organisers of a biannual Murtoa by Twilight event have encouraged Wimmera families to enjoy a night of shopping and entertainment by ‘picturesque Lake Marma’.

Saturday’s festivities will run from 5pm to 9pm and include a market, children’s activities, food vans and live entertainment.

Committee member Emily Farrugia said the event offered a great atmosphere.

“This is our fourth Murtoa by Twilight. We like to have one at the start of summer and one towards the end, to make the most of the opportunity to gather by the lake,” she said.

“It’s designed to be a fun, family-friendly, affordable event.”

Entry is free and people can bring their own chairs and picnic rugs to set up on the lawn area.

“We will have live music between 5pm and

Wednesday, February 17, 2021

9pm, including Aaron Murray and our local Marmadukes,” Ms Farrugia said.

“The market runs from 5pm to 8pm and we have about 40 stalls. There will also be five or six food vans and free children’s activities, including a jumping castle, face-painting and a giant sandpit.”

Ms Farrugia encouraged people from across the Wimmera-Mallee to attend the event, which offered ‘something for everyone’.

“It’s such a nice atmosphere and we always get a lot of great feedback,” she said.

She said people could call her on 0407 031 297 for more information.

people could rent, buy or move into as well,” she said.

Ms Holmes said increasing housing stock had a major part to play in the sustainability and economic growth of Yarriambiack towns.

“Our towns are such a great place to live. We’ve got all the infrastructure in place with schools and a great health service, but one of our biggest handbrakes in growing our population is housing stock,” she said.

“We want to attract more professionals and younger families back to the region and we need housing stock available to achieve that.”

in, so the council has to step up. This points to small rural councils having to step in where there’s a level of market failure,” she said.

Ms Holmes said the proposal would meet a need in the community to provide transitional housing for ageing residents.

“The units will be aimed at older people who are looking to transition out of their homes into a smaller home that is easier to maintain and live in independently until they decide to move into a nursing home,” she said Ms Holmes said the transitional housing plan would also open up housing vacancies.

“The plan potentially frees up to 14 houses across the shire that other

As we continue to navigate through the COVID-19 Pandemic, it’s good to remember we’re #StrongerTogether.

Emergency Works Underway Emergency reconstruction work is getting underway on Tatyoon North Road and Mt William Road to keep vital harvest freight moving.

These roads are some of the busiest in Western Victoria for the transport of grains over the harvest season.

It serves as the main route to the Lakaput Bulk Storage Facility, taking heavy freight traffic carrying wheat, barley, canola and oats from across the Wimmera Southern Mallee.

The reconstruction of 400 metres of road, will fix the existing pavement and protect against future failures

Lake Bolac Resource Recovery Centre Upgrade

Library Outreach Program Returns Ararat Library is restarting its Outreach Program for residents in Rural townships after COVID-19 restrictions caused a pause on the program last year.

Construction works have been completed on the Lake Bolac Resource Recovery Centre Upgrade Project, which reopened on Wednesday, 27 January 2021.

The Project has been possible through State Government funding. Including $100,000 as part of Sustainability Victoria’s E-Waste Facility Fund and $161,100 from the Resource Recovery Infrastructure Fund, totalling $261,100.

The total cost of the project is $287,303 is being funded by Ararat Rural City Council.

Construction began on Monday, 1 February and will take two weeks for the works to be completed.

The project involved building an entirely new site on an area which was not being utilised.

The former site will be closed, and the land will be rehabilitated to EPA guidelines.

The new section of road will be a stronger pavement than before to endure the heavy use it receives over this and future harvest seasons.

The new facility will encourage and improve the processing of recycling and waste materials for the Lake Bolac community and surrounds. Including a reuse shop so that the community can reclaim materials from the centre themselves.

On Monday, 18 January the library outreach program returned to the Elmhurst Bush Nursing Centre with new COVID-safety measures in place.

The Outreach program will be coming back to even more rural townships from February 1, on the following dates: • • • • •

Elmhurst Bush Nursing Centre: Mondays 10:30am – 12:15pm Pomonal Hall: Tuesdays 10:30am-11:30am Moyston Hall: Tuesdays 12:30pm-1:30pm Streatham Hall: Thursdays 10:30am-11:30am Willaura Hall: Thursdays 1:30pm-2:30pm

Remembering the battle for Darwin A Horsham group has urged the Wimmera community to recognise the 79th Darwin Defenders day on Friday despite COVID-19 restrictions forcing it to abandon its traditional school-commemoration service.

The Darwin Defenders Horsham committee is keen for Wimmera people to continue to acknowledge the major role forces played in the defence of Darwin during the Second World War. Committee members Lynne Wright and Sheryl Bartlett are among people to stress the annual significance of the occasion and are keen for ‘the next generation’ to know and understand what happened.

“We’re extremely disappointed we can’t run our traditional school service.

It is important to carry this tradition on

to remind people of the significance of what the defenders experienced and what it meant,” Mrs Wright said.

“The fact is that this defence of Darwin involved people from across Australia, with many people coming from the Wimmera. They weren’t army regulars. They were mostly untrained militia, which included people from all walks of life who were suddenly thrust into front-line defensive activities.

“We’re asking for people to take a few moments on Friday to recognise what that meant. There are so many people who don’t know about what happened and that’s why we want to keep it in the forefront of education.”

On February 19, 1942, when Japanese aircraft first attacked Darwin, many of

the army personnel stationed at the northern city at the time called places such as Horsham, Natimuk, Murtoa, Kaniva and many other Wimmera settlements home.

Many of the soldiers, as well as being relatively untrained, had little ammunition to repel the enemy attack.

The attack, in two raids, included 242 Japanese aircraft and led to more bombs falling on Darwin than the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbour in Hawaii.

It was the largest single attack a foreign power had mounted on Australia.

Annual Wimmera Darwin Defenders services are usually at Horsham’s Maroske Hall involving students, veterans and-or their families, organisation representatives and members of the general MEMORIAL: Darwin Defenders Horsham committee member Sheryl Bartlett at Sawyer Park.

Anxiety over silos FIVE-DAY forecast A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

Wimmera-Mallee municipal leader has stood his ground on a move to trademark the phrase ‘silo art trail’.

Yarriambiack Shire Council mayor Graeme Massey said having recognition as the first local government area in Australia to start the art trail was the focus of the move.

The council presented a 400-page legal argument to national trademark agency IP Australia in 2017 to secure rights on the phrase.

GrainCorp, which owns some of the painted silos across Australia, lodged its own legal argument to the trademark agency in 2018 to formally oppose the council’s claim.

Cr Massey said the council expected a decision within three months.

“All we wanted to do was protect the marketing we’ve done on the silo art trail – it’s a name we’ve used since 2016,” he said.

“We’re asking for the phrase to be trademarked so recognition can be paid to Yarriambiack Shire as the place where the original trail started.

“We’re not asking for any money. All stakeholders will have to do is display our logo on any written promotional material, if the trademark is approved.”

Yarriambiack Shire is home to six painted silos, stretching from Rupanyup in the shire’s south to Lascelles in the north.

There are 45 silo-art projects across Australia, and silo art trails in five states.

Cr Massey said the council had concerns the

shire would be forgotten as home of the original silo art trail as the concept grew across the country.

“We just want to protect our contribution to the silo-art concept,” he said.

Cr Massey said the council had helped other communities in pursuing silo-art projects.

“We’ve told others how to negotiate with GrainCorp and how to get grants or work with street-art network Juddy Roller to get artists – we’ve not stood in anyone’s way and not asked for one dollar from anyone,” he said.

GrainCorp has, since 2015, supported 14 siloart projects across Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland.

Its corporate affairs manager Jessica Simons said it would be unfair to expect other councils to acknowledge Yarriambiack Shire in their tourism marketing.

“We can’t imagine councils in other communities want to promote Yarriambiack every time they try to attract tourists to their region,” she said.

“Our biggest concern is that other stakeholders won’t be able to use the phrase – that would be a real shame, because it’s now such a commonly used phrase.”

She said GrainCorp believed Yarriambiack Shire Council’s move could complicate regional communities’ ability to market their silo art trails.

Business leader: Let’s think big

T

he managing director of one of Horsham’s largest private employers believes Wimmera medical-service providers should be exploring regional growth with neighbouring health groups instead of Ballarat.

Tim Hopper of CHS Group said he believed a better alternative to a merger between Wimmera Health Care Group and Ballarat Health Services was to expand what the region offered from within.

He said based on economies of scale, transforming Horsham into a much bigger health hub to meet regional needs represented a much better option than transferring operational autonomy closer to Melbourne.

“We must embrace a sense of not only self-preservation, but also an understanding of the opportunity we have to grow and develop from our own regional base,” he said.

Mr Hopper has outlined his thoughts in the following letter to The Weekly Advertiser –

Health comes first

SIR, – The health of the people of Horsham district needs to be a pri-

ority. I’m not privileged to know the full medical benefits of a merger with Ballarat, but I’ve used services of the Wimmera Base, Ballarat Base and Melbourne hospitals and have confidence in our medical professionals here.

I was born, grew up and have been educated in Horsham. My grandmother was a Wimmera hospital matron and my mother a long-standing maternity nurse.

I write this with caution, determined not to offend anyone in this debate – not Ballarat people or those who have sat on Wimmera or Ballarat hospital boards.

My simple point is that we need to build and redevelop, go big and think of the 30-plus year solution.

Our business employs roughly 150 people and 50 subcontractors, with the majority based in Horsham.

We were one of the major sub-contractors of the 1990s hospital rebuild and for decades have supplied trade services to the hospital, working closely with its engineering department.

I recall the time my grandfather required dialysis treatment in the later

years of his life in Ballarat and the strain of the drive became too much.

There was no dialysis equipment at the time in Horsham. This was nearly 25 years ago and there is now a dialysis unit.

I’ve also had family and staff members use the wonderful services of ‘Peter Mac’ or Ballarat oncology and it is the drive that is the real strain.

We have since had direct access to dialysis and our Wimmera Cancer Centre, providing visiting specialist treatment and care, saving many trips down the Western Highway.

This is the basis of my point – in another 30 years we can add major services on top of the facilities we have today – but do it on our own.

Picture a $50-million grant for a much-needed upgrade for the hospital to make it a powerhouse it deserves to become.

Through a Ballarat merger it is hard to see how money could be appropriately distributed into a Horsham-based health organisation.

We must maintain our independence and consider building a major site.

Instead of the merger, aim to attract our own government grant.

Economies of scale are powerful if you get them right, and not good if you get them wrong – in this case a merger would be at the detriment of our local economy.

I reference one part of the hospital – the laundry. I can assume a 40-plus person operation.

This service would likely cease in a pure cost saving economic decision, replaced by a couple of truck trips to Ballarat each day.

I’m a realist and understand funding requirements to make things happen.

There is much we could do. For example, do we consider a multi-storey hospital that has a rooftop helicopter that can fly people in an emergency to Melbourne?

It would also be closer to Warracknabeal, Hopetoun, Edenhope, Nhill and all other towns not covered by the Warrnambool-based helicopter?

Geographically we have the largest footprint in the state.

The cost of a merger would be better spent planning for a major site in Horsham, for the Wimmera and southern Mallee.

I’m also a big believer of developing air traffic or rail upgrades to help us

increase, not decrease, our services.

Ballarat’s population is booming with overflow of Melbournians – their health system is in need of its own upgrades.

Learning from COVID and the situation we are in today, the less time in Melbourne the better.

Build a quality hospital and quality health professionals will come.

If we don’t – no matter the picture Ballarat executives paint or success generated from a honeymoon period – we will miss out.

We must be solid in our convictions to have a powerhouse region with many new industries presenting themselves, and we need our own health organisation for this.

Many local industries are going strongly and we’re on the cusp of significant growth.

We need to flip this health-service conversation 180 degrees and squirt tens-of-millions-of-dollars into a major site, with first-class facilities and first-class doctors welcomed to the region.

T. J. Hopper Horsham

Different shows but both keen to rock Planning for future Wimmera reunion music events based on a 60 Years of Wimmera Rock template is separate to preparations for Horsham Rocks Festival.

But the events, while different, are both based on stimulating a live-music scene in Horsham.

An inaugural annual Horsham Rocks Festival, promoting acts in various venues across Horsham district, was originally scheduled for Febru-

ary this year. The COVID-19 pandemic forced organisers to abandon the festival, but planning is ongoing for a launch in 2022.

The Weekly Advertiser revealed last week that leaders behind successful 60 and 50 years of Wimmera rock events were contemplating ways of presenting more regular versions of their shows.

Disney showcase a musical ‘gift’ N

“It’s wonderful to be back doing what we love and we are looking forward to sharing a performance with the community who support us and make it possible for us to do what we do. It is a gift of appreciation to our audience, our wonderful sponsors, to every one of us after last year”

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

ew and returning Horsham Arts Council members are busy preparing for a Disney-themed concert designed to ‘give something back to the community’.

Council secretary Faye Johns said the 2020 committee was determined to give its members an opportunity to get back to doing what they love while thanking the community for its ongoing support.

“Our community has offered us incredible support throughout the years,” she said.

“When we were discussing what our performance options were with regards to restrictions at the time, we realised a fully fledged musical production was not viable.

“We also wanted to perform something family friendly.

“We love Disney and a concert series including many of the well-known and loved classics seemed a perfect fit.”

The committee will present When You Wish Upon A Star – an evening of Disney classics in three shows from March 12 to 14.

The cast will perform evening and matinee shows on the Saturday and a twilight show on the Sunday.

For the first time ever, the arts council decided roles based solely on online auditions, which involved singing sections of two contrasting Disney songs in a set song list.

“We all learnt a lot quickly about recording oneself and sending a clip in,” Mrs Johns said.

“In one way it was easier, because live auditions can feel quite intimidating – 20plus years on and long-time HAC members still get nervous through the process.”

Mrs Johns, who is also the concert’s executive producer, said the Disney show-

RARING TO GO: Jessica Wilson and Loucas Vettos are busy rehearsing for Horsham Arts Council’s Disney-themed production. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER case would feature familiar faces along with several new ones, including two performers from Ballarat.

“We have been very lucky to have members come from out of town to participate in our shows over the past few years,” she said.

“Often people who come from out of town to audition have a local connection through friends or family, and some just love the show or concert we are doing.

“Driving significant distances is a huge commitment and we are always very appreciative of that effort.”

A cast of 31 is rehearsing three times a week.

Mrs Johns said the committee was excited to present the concert in a new venue, Horsham Church of Christ.

“The church has been developed for use

as a community and business space and it’s exciting to think about how we can use the wonderful facilities provided there,” she said.

“We are lucky that with current restrictions we can fit more than 200 people in our audience. Of course, we are aware this could change, but we are hopeful.”

Mrs Johns said Horsham was already abuzz about the concert.

“People are excited and enthusiastic that we are getting out there again,” she said.

“It’s wonderful to be back doing what we love and we are looking forward to sharing a performance with the community who support us and make it possible for us to do what we do.

“It is a gift of appreciation to our audience, our wonderful sponsors, to every one of us after last year.”

Study highlights regional gaps

A

study aimed at building an understanding of house and land availability in the Wimmera and southern Mallee has highlighted and confirmed ‘key gaps’ across the region.

Wimmera Development Association project manager Mark Fletcher said the study had found a shortage of residentially zoned and serviced land across the region for sale.

He said the study also found that zoning and planning provisions for future residential development land needed to be more ambitious.

He added there was a need for incentives for residential development to overcome a perception of potentially poor returns on investment.

Wimmera Development Association has worked with consultant Wayne Street of Street Ryan and Associates to complete the Wimmera Southern Mallee Housing Study.

The study involved consultation with local government, real-estate professionals, developers, large-scale employers and social-emergency housing providers.

Mr Fletcher said the study revealed that existing housing stock was often ‘the wrong mix’ for ageing populations and not conducive to attracting new residents.

In many cases, vacant dwellings were also unavailable to the market.

“Rental housing is in short supply, impacting on recruitment and retention and the ability to house staff for businesses, public-sector agencies and community organisations,” Mr Fletcher said.

“There is also an inadequate supply of low-cost housing and social housing, including emergency-crisis accommodation, but more frequently housing for seasonal and itinerant workers.”

Mr Fletcher said the study also identified opportunities for the Wimmera Southern Mallee including the establishment of a regional housing taskforce and the development of more ambitious growth targets.

“The region has many new economic development projects in the pipeline in agribusiness, food processing, mining, renewable energies, tourism and health services. The region needs to adopt a more aggressive set of growth targets to ensure housing is not an inhibitor to realising these projects,” he said.

Mr Fletcher said people could get a report summary by emailing info@wda.org.au.

An increase in housing-development projects in major centres across the region reflects study findings.

Latest trials research revealed Birchip Cropping Group members can hear latest results from trial sites across the Wimmera, Mallee and North Central at BCG’s Trial Review Day at Birchip Community Leisure Centre on Friday.

BCG staff, renowned researchers, industry experts and growers will share their research, knowledge and experiences in a day designed specifically for BCG members.

BCG chief executive Fiona Best said the day’s program combined the expertise of BCG staff, who had developed and implemented BCG’s 2020 research program, with researchers and consultants whose expertise in topics such as new chemistry, nutrition, varieties and disease management is unparalleled.

“Each topic has been selected based on what our members want to know going into the 2021 growing season,” she said.

Dr James Hunt from La Trobe University will present findings of three years of research aimed at increasing yields by matching nitrogen supply to crop demand.

Crop establishment and seeder selection will be the topic of one of two farmer discussion panels.

Tim Rethus, disc, and Tim McClelland, tyne, will share their strategies for achieving their targeted Wednesday, February 17, 2021

crop establishment, why they chose the seeder they did and how they manage issues such as disease, pests and traffic flow in their system.

BCG staff will share their insights from research conducted throughout the 2020 growing season, including Kelly Angel speaking with Dr Mick Rose from NSW DPI about the latest findings in managing herbicide residue.

Genevieve Clarke, BCG research and extension officer, will discuss the economics of blackleg management, alongside Dr Steve Marcroft from Marcroft Grains Pathology.

Owl prompts new Mount Cole call A

conservation group has claimed to have discovered a ‘significant’ population of threatened powerful owls at Mount Cole east of Ararat, adding weight to its push for greater protection of the area.

Victorian National Parks Association believes the find highlights the need for the State Government to forge ahead with new national parks in Victoria’s central west.

Association spokesman Jordan Crook said ‘citizen scientists’ from the organisation had used acoustic recorders – song meters – to identify the population in what had been the first survey for threatened wildlife in the forests for decades.

He said ecologists who analysed the recordings confirmed a significant population of powerful owls was present in and around planned logging areas at Mount Cole State Forest.

Mr Crook added the survey also captured calls of other iconic wildlife, including the Krefft’s glider – formerly sugar glider – southern boobook owl, koalas and the Australian wood duck.

“This is a significant discovery. The powerful owl lost a substantial amount of habitat in the 2019-20 bushfires,” he said.

“With several detections confirmed, Mount Cole appears to be a stronghold for this declining giant of the sky.

“This reaffirms the importance of both protecting these areas in new expert-recommended national parks, and of undertaking further survey work before these critical habitats are irreparably damaged by logging.”

The powerful owl is the largest owl in Australia, measuring about 60 centimetres in length with a wingspan of up to almost 1.5 metres.

In June 2019, the Victorian Environment As-

“This is a significant discovery. The powerful owl lost a substantial amount of habitat in the 2019-20 bushfires”

– Jordan Crook

sessment Council recommended a new Mount Buangor National Park for Mount Cole.

The new park recommendations include an increase of 58,115 hectares in protected areas across the central west as national park, conservation park, nature reserve, bushland reserve and heritage river – including the Wombat Forest near Daylesford, Wellsford Forest near Bendigo, Pyrenees Ranges Forest near Avoca, and Mount Cole Forest as well as many smaller forest areas.

“Without permanent protection in a national park, these areas will likely be logged, which could impact the 380 threatened species as well as the headwater of rivers such as the Wimmera River and the popular Beeripmo walking track,” Mr Crook said.

He said there were 10 to 14 logging coupes planned or already logged within the Mount Cole area.

“This is almost double the amount of coupes set for logging within the new national park – a decision released quietly on Christmas eve 2019 by Victoria’s state-owned native forest logging company VicForests,” he said.

“Logging continues in sensitive native forest habitat while the Andrews government sits on its hands, now 12 months past its legal deadline on making a decision on new central west national parks and conservation reserves. For parks sake get on with it.”

VNPA will forward its citizen-science report to the State Government and Office of the Conservation Regulator.

GIVING BACK: Horsham Riding for the Disabled volunteers, from left, Alison Silcock, Marion McKenzie and Jan Croser saddle up after almost a year off due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Four decades of community service A voluntary community group with a focus on providing horse riding opportunities for people living with a disability will celebrate its 40th year in July.

Horsham Riding for the Disabled, RDA, participants will make a return to horseback this month after a long break due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The program has provided people with a disability an opportunity to develop skills in pathways including horse riding, carriage driving and vaulting, experience a sense of achievement and improve their quality of life since 1981.

Horsham RDA president Jan Croser has been part of the organisation since its inception.

She said many fundraising efforts and hard work from volunteers contributed to the ongoing success of the group.

“There was a need in the community and I think that’s why it is a success, because it has been driven by the community and people can see the advantages,” she said.

“If you are a person in a wheelchair and all of a sudden we put you on a horse, it provides this amazing opportunity you can’t get in other sports.”

Mrs Croser said while the program focused on helping children and adults with special needs, it was also an enriching process for its volunteers.

“While our main business is

giving riders an equine opportunity, nearly every volunteer gets involved because they love the horses, socialising and to see the riders achieve things they otherwise couldn’t achieve,” she said.

Mrs Croser said the group made the decision to cancel carriage driving and vaulting during the first term in 2021 due to COVID-19 requirements around social distancing.

“We are hoping to get back to running as we normally would, but we’re pretty convinced we will continue operating in this COVID-normal way for the foreseeable future.”

Understanding a possession claim

vvelectricalandsolar.com.au vvelectricalandsolar@gmail.com

Adverse possession is a legal rule that enables an occupier of a piece of land who does not own the land, to obtain ownership where the occupier can prove intentional and exclusive use of that land for at least 15 years uninterrupted.

Possession cannot be with the consent of the owner – such as under a lease – but importantly, whether the title owner realises they have been dispossessed of their land is irrelevant.

You might have heard of a person taking possession of a residential property and then claiming title to it.

However, such claims are rare. More commonly, adverse possession claims arise where fencing has been erected where it is not in line with the title boundary or in relation to the use of farm land.

Often the parties are not aware of the potential claim until the land is surveyed in the future.

Proving an exclusive possession claim is not easy.

If you think you have a case of adverse possession, think about what evidence you have to support it. What can be used to support your case, demonstrating your intent and exclusive use of the land? How will you prove your 15 years, or more, of use is continuous?

The fact that you have fenced off the area therefore excluding access and demonstrating systematic maintenance and land use would likely assist your claim.

If you believe you have a case – and the evidence to back it – you can lodge a claim at

THE LAW with Patrick Smith, LL.B. (Hons) B. Int. St., B.Ec., GDLP

Land Victoria. It’s at this point the true owner is notified.

If you are the owner of land and Land Victoria has advised you of a claim against your land, you also need to seek advice and gather your evidence.

Can you prove your use of the land? What evidence can counter the occupier’s claim on intentional and exclusive use?

There are steps that can be considered, but you also need to act carefully.

For example, if your 15 years has not elapsed, you could act to regain possession. However, if it has, you might be trespassing.

This is a complex area of law, so if you think you have a case of adverse possession, please talk to a lawyer for advice on your specific circumstance.

Pushing boundaries McLaren’s new 765LT, the most exuberant ‘Longtail’ to date, arrives in Australia

T

he most powerful Longtail McLaren to date, the 765LT, has arrived in Australia priced from $609,650 plus on-road costs, yet every one of the 765 units being produced worldwide has been sold.

Ultimately a harder, faster and more focused version of the already rabid 720S, the 765LT is powered by a 563kW-800Nm version of McLaren’s twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8, while power is channelled to the rear wheels via a reworked seven-speed

dual-clutch automatic transmission.

With more power on tap as well as 80 kilograms less weight than the 720S, the 765LT races from zero to 100 kilometres an hour 0.1 seconds faster than its donor car, to stop the clock in 2.8s before bringing up 200kmh in 7.2s and then onto a top speed of 330kmh.

Carbon ceramic brake rotors clamped by callipers pinched from the Senna help haul it back up again.

McLaren Asia Pacific and China managing director George Biggs said the Longtail name was embedded in

McLaren’s heritage and history as a brand.

“The very essence of this supercar is to question the rules of traditional engineering, challenge the parameters of performance and engagement, and push the boundaries further than we ever have before,” he said.

“With only 765 units available, the 765LT will deliver an immersive sensory experience with the purest possible connection between driver and car.”

As an indication of the even more extreme performance on offer com-

pared with the 720S, the 765LT flaunts a myriad of more aggressive aerodynamic features, bigger and more numerous vents around the body and an increased number of carbon-fibre trim pieces.

Those aero features improve downforce by a claimed 25 percent with the whole package riding 5mm lower on a reworked suspension set-up now featuring lightweight main springs paired with ‘helper’ springs.

The 80kg weight saving, meanwhile, comes from the extensive use of carbon-fibre both on the body and within

the interior, a titanium exhaust, lighter transmission, thinner windscreen and glass windows and Alcantara upholstery.

Befitting of its Longtail nomenclature, the 765LT is 59mm longer than the regular car, however only nine of those extra millimetres are found at the back, the majority of the added length comes from the new bespoke nose.

McLaren sold five cars last month, marking a 25 percent increase on the four it shifted in January 2020.

RACV announces safest cars

R

oyal Automobile Club of Victoria, RACV, has revealed the winners of its inaugural Safest Cars awards with the new Toyota Yaris, Mercedes-Benz CLA, Mazda CX-30 and Land Rover Defender all taking home top honours in their respective categories.

Using Australasian New Car Assessment Program, ANCAP, crash safety ratings and data to determine the results, the awards were broken into four distinct categories in relation to vehicle price and style; passenger car versus SUV. In the sub-$30,000 passenger category, the Toyota Yaris edged out the Mazda3 and Kia Cerato with both the RACV and ANCAP testers impressed by the array of standard safety gear including eight airbags, front-row centre airbags, a light-car segment first, as well as autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian detection and cyclist detection, lane keeping aid with lane centering, adaptive cruise control and secondary collision brake system, among others.

Tested under the 2020 protocols, the Yaris scored 86 percent for adult occupant protection, 87 percent for child occupant protection, 78 percent for vulnerable road user protection and 87 percent for safety assist.

Top passenger honours above the $30,000 mark went to the Mercedes-

AWARDED: The Toyota Yaris, Mercedes-Benz CLA, Mazda CX-30 and Land Rover Defender, pictured, have won RACV safety awards.

Benz CLA, which scored 96 percent for adult occupant protection, 92 percent for child occupant protection, 91 percent for vulnerable road user protection and 76 percent for safety assist, when it was tested in 2019.

Second and third place in this category went to the Tesla Model 3 and the 2.0-litre versions of the BMW 3 Series.

The Mazda CX-30 was the safest SUV under $35,000, with the compact

Japanese high-rider edging out the European Volkswagen T-Cross and Skoda Kamiq twins.

RACV reported the CX-30 ‘blitzed the adult occupant test with 99 percent’, while scoring 88 percent for child occupant protection, 80 percent for vulnerable road user protection and 76 percent for safety assist.

Tested in 2019, standard safety highlights included autonomous emergency braking, lane keep assist, lane

departure warning and an advanced speed assistance system.

The final winner for this year was the Land Rover Defender, which was deemed the safest SUV over $35,000 – a far cry from its rudimentary predecessor that went out of production in 2016.

Scoring 85 percent for adult occupant protection, 88 percent for child occupant protection, 71 percent for vulnerable road user protection and 76

percent for safety assist, the Defender outperformed the Kia Sorento CRDi in second place and Tesla Model X in third.

Like the rest of the winners, the Defender’s safety highlights include autonomous emergency braking, lane keep assist, lane departure warning and an advanced speed assistance system.

RACV transport, planning and infrastructure senior manager Peter Kartsidimas said the organisation was urging consumers to make decisions based on safety features given the majority of fatal accidents happened in vehicles more than 10 years old.

“There have been huge advancements in vehicle safety over the years, particularly in the past decade, as more buyers prioritise safety when researching their next new car,” he said.

“Features like autonomous emergency braking, which applies the brakes when the system detects an object such as another car, a cyclist or a pedestrian ahead, are increasingly offered as standard on most new-model passenger cars and SUVs. “Other systems like lane keeping aids provide gentle steering assistance to help keep the car in its lane, while driver fatigue systems monitor the state of the driver through cameras and sensors.”

Win for hydrogen refuelling station

A

Victorian Hydrogen Hub is one step closer to fruition following a State Government $10-million commitment to the project, $1-million of which will go to the CSIRO to assist in the development of a dedicated hydrogen vehicle refuelling station.

To be built at the CSIRO’s Clayton campus, the refuelling station is said to be a ‘key milestone in the development of CSIRO’s national Hydrogen Industry Mission’, with the project being shared with Swinburne University of Technology.

CSIRO growth executive director Nigel Warren described the refuelling station, VH2, as a significant step to-

wards overcoming the lack of FCEV refuelling infrastructure.

“As Australia considers energy alternatives, we know hydrogen is clean and will be cost-competitive – but a major barrier to it becoming a fuel source for cars and trucks is how to refuel, and the lack of refuelling infrastructure,” he said.

“We thank the Victorian government for supporting the project which, combined with the refueller, will allow us to test emerging hydrogen technologies.”

One of the first ports of call for the new refueller when it is complete will be a fleet trial for hydrogen-powered CSIRO vehicles – Toyota Mirais – be-

fore it goes on to supply other FCEVs in the area.

Toyota Australia future technologies manager Matt MacLeod said the brand was delighted to be supporting the project.

All-in-all, the VH2 is expected to create some 8000 jobs during its construction and operation and generate about $11-billion a year in GDP. Swinburne University of Technology vice-chancellor Professor Pascale Quester said the university was excited by the development and described the VH2 as ‘another demonstration of how we can bring people and technology together to create a better world’.

Audi finally lays e-Tron GT bare

A

fter months of teasing and information drip feeding, Audi has at last revealed its new e-Tron GT electric grand tourer with two versions set to be offered globally, both of which are due in Australia this year.

ON ITS WAY: Audi will offer its new e-Tron GT in two versions, quattro and RS, in Australia.

RS e-Tron sport an electric motor on each axle, which draw power from a 93kWh lithium-ion battery stashed under the floor of the cabin. Both versions use a two-speed transmission.

Peak power and torque in the e-Tron GT quattro is rated at 350kW-630Nm, resulting in a zero to 100kmh time of 4.1 seconds and a top speed of 245kmh.

The RS version ups the ante to 440kW-830Nm, enough to compete with the most powerful internal-combustion Audi RS models.

Zero to 100kmh is dealt with in 3.3 seconds, while the top speed is electronically limited to 250kmh.

Thanks to the sheer capacity of the battery and an R8-beating drag coefficient of 0.24, Audi says the e-Tron GT quattro will cover up to 487km on a single charge, with up to 100km of range able to be added after just five minutes when connected to a DC fast charger – the RS range is a claimed 472km.

Under the skin, the e-Tron GTs utilise a double wishbone suspension setup with the quattro coming as standard with fixed damping and spring rates.

The RS comes as standard with adaptive dampers and a three-chamber air sprung set-up, which can either raise or lower the ride height depend-

ing on the driving situation, while the dampers have four different settings – comfort, efficiency, dynamic and individual. Four-wheel steering is also optionally available on both versions, while a rear limited-slip differential is standard.

Braking duties come courtesy of steel discs on the quattro and tungsten carbide coated cast iron units on the RS, however carbon ceramics are available as optional extras on both.

Befitting of an electric vehicle, the interior of the e-Tron GT has been developed and constructed with sustainability in mind, so much so that Audi says luxury has ‘changed’.

To be offered in e-Tron GT quattro and RS e-Tron GT guises, Audi says the new electric four-door coupes reinterpret the ‘gran tourismo philosophy’ and have day-to-day usability at the forefront of their grand touring intentions.

That final point in Audi’s eyes is ultimately what separates the e-Tron GT from the Porsche Taycan, despite the two models sharing a platform, architecture, running gear and basic silhouette, with Porsche marketing its car as a four-door, all-electric sportscar.

As a result, the Audi rides on a completely different suspension set-up, with other changes said to be found in the traction control system, torque distribution and steering, not to mention the front and rear designs.

Measuring in at 4990mm long, 1960mm wide and 1410mm tall, the e-Tron GT sports a 2900mm wheelbase and rides on aerodynamically optimised wheels ranging from 19 to 21 inches in diameter depending on the variant and optional extras.

Both the e-Tron GT quattro and

As a result, many of the upholstery options feature no animal products at all, instead relying on synthetic leathers, Diminica microfibre and recycled PET bottles.

Leather and Nappa leather comes as standard when the standard ‘sport seats’ or ‘sport seats pro’ are specified, with the ‘sport seats plus’ being the eco-friendliest option.

Another sustainable feature fitted to both variants as standard is the Econyl carpet and matching floormats.

While not a dedicated sportscar, the e-Tron GT still has sporting pretensions as every good grand tourer should, and so its dashboard has been tailored in towards the driver with the Audi virtual cockpit seemingly standing by its lonesome to avoid distractions.

The display itself measures 12.3 inches in diameter and is complemented by the ‘floating’ 10.1-inch MMI touchscreen.

Other standard equipment highlights include a flat-bottom multifunction steering wheel, MIB 3 infotainment system, satellite navigation, Bluetooth connectivity, built-in Wifi hotspot, Audi connect, LED head, tail and daytime running lights, as well as interior ambient lighting in the RS. Pricing and specifications of the eTron GT range are yet to be detailed.

20 Thomas St – If your budget is tight then this might be the home for you? This weatherboard home needs a bit of TLC but it’s the cheapest house in town at the moment. It features 3 bedrooms, lounge, dining room, kitchen (no stove) and a spacious bathroom.

Outside the block has side lane access, a single carport, sundry sheds and a rain water tank. In 2016-2017 this house was rewired from the pole out the front, right through the house.

One definition of the word passion is “to have a strong engaging feeling of enthusiasm or excitement for something or about doing something.”

Ultimately passion can be a great trait to hone in on when it comes to pursuing anything in life! It creates drive, growth, and energy to face the challenges each day presents to us Purpose is defined as what we are here for, desire is what we want to do and be, passion is the zeal that fires the engine. You might say but I don’t know what my purpose is. Actually, purpose can be summed up by what you love to do and usually what you love to do is what you are good at. I know a lady who loves art and craft, sewing, making cards, crochet and knitting and she not only loves doing it, she is very good at it. We are all put together differently but passion is the energising factor, the zeal and fervour that is engaging. If what you do is the vehicle, then let passion be the engine!

In the book of Jeremiah in the Bible the Lord encourages us that His plans and purposes for us are to give us a future and a hope. Everyone of us has a purpose in life designed by God. We are fashioned to fulfil our dreams and fuelled by the passion of our convictions. Think about it, what do I like to do and what am I good at.

Drung South team to beat C

BY DYLAN DE JONG

entral Wimmera Tennis Association pennant teams hope to push forward with matches this weekend, with only two rounds remaining before the start of finals.

Association leaders abandoned round-14 matches at the weekend after a State Government decision to impose a five-day lockdown due to COVID-19.

Association president Jeremy Quast said all teams would receive zero points and focus would now be on round 15 this weekend.

“We understand that these rounds could have been a chance for teams to redeem themselves or move up on the leader board, but unfortunately this is just how it is,” he said.

“We had to work out what was fair, so we felt no one should get any points for round 14.

“Fingers crossed we can still proceed with round 15 and 16 – we will cross those bridges when we hear more announcements around restrictions.”

Last year, Kalkee was the only team to qualify for the pennant grand final before COVID-19 restrictions forced the association to abandon the compe-

tition entirely. Mr Quast said he hoped the competition could proceed through to the grand final this season.

He said while Drung South was sitting comfortably at the top of the leader board, Horsham Lawn and theKees were serious contenders for the 2021 title.

“In pennant, Drung South has been very good this season. It is very balanced between their men and women, but you can never count out Kalkee,” he said.

“They will be the two teams to beat this year in the pennant.

“Horsham Lawn has also proven to be a strong team, so there could be a few upset matches in the finals – you just never know on the day.”

Mr Quast said the association would keep all clubs updated on forthcoming matches.

“If Daniel Andrews says we’ve got to be in lockdown for a few more days, we’ll put all the necessary measures in place to let the clubs know and then we’ll wait for the next lockdown news,” he said.

Ladder: Drung South 52 points, Horsham Lawn 34, Kalkee 32, St Michaels 22, Central Park 10, Homers 6.

Ararat night out

BY TONY LOGAN

I

t was Ararat Harness Racing Club’s night of the year on Friday with the running of the $30,000 group-three Renown Silverware Ararat Pacing Cup and the $20,000 group-three Niota Bloodstock Ararat Trotters Cup.

The 46th edition of the pacers cup saw Charlton trainer Greg Norman knock punters for a six when his eight-year-old gelding Zadaka scored at the bolter’s odds of 50-1. Raced by Adelaide owners A. B. and T. Cormack Racing, Zadaka – Jodi Quinlan – was taken back from gate six to settle at the rear as the two favourites, Riley Major – Zac Phillips – and Im Anothermasterpiece – Kerryn Manning – scorched out of the gate with Riley Major crossing to the lead.

Relishing the hectic tempo, Zadaka finished full of running to score by a head in a thrilling finish over the fast-finishing Majestic Cruiser – Darby McGuigan – with a gap of five metres to the brave Im Anothermasterpiece.

It was Zadaka’s fifth win since being purchased from New Zealand by Cormac Racing and took his career record to 12 wins, 21 placings and $174,801 from 73 outings.

Trotters

The Ararat Trotters Cup was a triumph for Bendigo district trainer Kate Hargreaves and driver Ellen Tormey, with six-year-old gelding Well Defined an upset winner in a track-record mile rate of 2:03.3 over the staying journey of 2570-metres.

After beginning quickly from outside the front row, Well Defined went into a break shortly after and the $9 chance settled at the tail of the field on the back of the hot favourite Havehorsewilltravel – Kate Gath – which was looking to make it seven wins in a row. Havehorsewilltravel raced clear around the home turn and looked all over a winner but Well Defined knuckled down and claimed him in the shadows of the post to score by a half-neck with a gap of some 20 metres to Scruffy Doolan – Ryan Duffy – in third spot.

Well Defined has won 12 races from 59 starts since joining the Hargreaves stable.

Maiden trot

While the spotlight was on the cups at Ararat it

was great to see the Michelle and Craig Wight training team salute the judge with three-year-old gelding Morsure Damour in the $7000 Ararat Farm Supplies three-year-old maiden trot.

The bay son of Love You and Calder Fury led from barrier to post and despite trotting a little roughly at the 75-metre mark, held off the challenge from $1.20-favourite Parisian Artiste – Michael Bellman – to score by a half-length in a rate of 2:05.6 for the 2195-metre trip.

Swan Hill

Astute Ararat trainer Terry Young and driver Grant Campbell took out the opening race at Swan Hill with three-year-old gelding Classicmajor for long-time stable supporter Terry Cahill.

The nicely bred son of champion sire Art Major and smart Bettors Delight USA mare Lierre, 15 wins, was first up from a spell and used the pole draw to advantage to score an all-the-way victory.

Melton

Melton was a very happy hunting ground for Horsham’s Dunn clan on Saturday night with trainer-driver Aaron and his parents Barry and Yvonne celebrating victories with Rollova and Glenavril King.

Dunn bought Rollova home with a well-timed run to snatch victory in a $20,000 contest over 2240 metres – it’s seventh win from 24 starts since owner Stephen Blacker purchased the fiveyear-old gelding from New Zealand.

Glenavril King – Kerryn Manning – made it three in a row for Barry and Yvonne when successful in the $20,000 HERO Claiming Pace.

The five-year-old gelded son of Courage Under Fire won six races last season, and with three more in the new year, has now banked $70,370 for his owners.

Horsham Harness Racing Club and West Side will host a Girls Day Out @ The Trots, raising money for ovarian cancer research on public holiday Monday, March 8.

Call for players, coaches, volunteers Horsham soccer players sneaked in one last training session on Friday afternoon before COVID-19 restrictions suspended all sport across Victoria.

A State Government move to enter stage four restrictions for five days forced Horsham and District Soccer Club leaders to cancel training sessions this week.

Club president Jo-anne Bates said she hoped the club could reconvene with plans for a come-and-try day that was also cancelled at the weekend.

“We’re going to have a discussion to figure out dates

with Stawell Soccer Club and Geelong Rangers to see if we can get another date,” she said.

Ms Bates said the club was seeking volunteers to help with running the club.

“Just like most sporting clubs across the region, we have seen an impact on trying to get people back on board,” she said.

“We are looking to start pre-season training and we’re also seeking more coaches and volunteers.”

Ms Bates encouraged players of all ages and skill levels to consider trying the sport when restrictions eased.

“We’ve had a good contingency of senior players and a mixture of younger players, but we’re certainly always looking for more,” she said.

“Normally, as we get closer to February and people are finishing cricket and tennis you start picking up numbers again.”

Ms Bates said pre-season training for all age groups would be cancelled while stage four restrictions were in place.

She said she expected a regional competition with Ballarat and District Soccer Association would start in early April.

Volleyball season ready to start With today the final day for teams to enter Volleyball Horsham’s summer season, association officials are confident numbers will return to pre-pandemic days.

Thirty teams have entered across the four grades of competition so far, with the season to start on Monday for C and junior grades and Wednesday for A and B grades.

When competition was closed down last year, 33 teams were participating.

This season there are six new teams across all grades. There is still capacity for at least one more team in either of B, C or junior grades.

Teams or individuals interested in participating should contact info@volleyballhorsham.com.au.

Grampians to stick with draw

BY ONE SHORT

T

he sudden COVID-19 lockdown on Friday deprived Grampians Cricket Association of one of the season’s most definitive rounds.

Following Cricket Victoria’s COVID protocols, the only cricket played in the Grampians was Friday night’s under-16s.

Senior, under-13s and Wimmera girls cricket missed out.

The association’s pennant committee, in a hastily convened meeting, decided not to play the round later, but to stick with an original draw and treat the round as a washout, allocating three points to each team.

It also worked through various scenarios should there be another lockdown.

The decision left St Andrews out of the four and with a bye in the last round, that is where the Saints will stay.

The final home-and-away round on Saturday involves scheduled matches between Swifts-Great Western and Youth Club at Stawell’s Central Park and Buangor-Tatyoon playing Pomonal at Tatyoon.

This last-round draw will probably be the same as semi-finals the week after. The only exception would be if Pomonal could defeat Buangor-Tatyoon, allowing the Combine to replace the Hawks on top of the ladder.

With finals imminent expect both teams to be at near full strength.

The Combine has a barrage of quicks to throw against Clubbers’ Nic Baird, Jarrod Illig and Trent Homden, who has recently been promoted to opener with success.

Cam Kimber has not played recently, so you would expect the all-rounder to return.

The Combine batsmen might use this match to finalise its batting line-up against the Clubbers’ Kimber, Slorach, Healy, and newcomer Ben Newton.

The Hawks at Tatyoon are also building towards their final 11 and will provide stiff opposition for Pomonal, which would like nothing better than to cause another upset – similar to their defeat of the Combine.

But while the Tigers’ bowling is more than adequate, their batting is their Achilles heel.

They must all score runs against the most successful attack this season, and this includes Clayton Mackley, Matt Peal, Lynden Brewis and Lachy Green. While the results of this round are mainly academic, each side would like to enter the finals on a high.

This week: Swifts-Great Western v Youth Club at Central Park, Stawell, Buangor-Tatyoon v Pomonal at Tatyoon, St Andrews, bye.

Last week: Abandoned.

Ladder: Buangor-Tatyoon 39 points, 1.87 percent: Swifts-Great Western 36, 2.40; Youth Club 24, 0.82; Pomonal 15, 0.44; St Andrews 12, 0.60.

Horsham to launch greyhound festival Horsham will feature prominently in Greyhound Racing Victoria’s inaugural Western Festival of Racing, incorporating more than $700,000 in prizemoney.

The festival will feature eight nights of racing in the state’s west from late February to early May. Attracting some of Australia’s best greyhounds to country Victoria, the event kicks off with Horsham Cup heats on February 26, with the final on March 6.

From there the festival will feature Ballarat and Geelong cups, both traditionally later in the year, but now in April.

The festival will finish with a Warrnambool Cup final in early May. Greyhound Racing Victoria deputy chair Greg Miller said the Western Festival of Racing provided an important marketing opportunity as the sport continued to thrust its brand across the state, in line with its metropolitan and Gippsland festivals of racing.

“Greyhound racing’s first Western Festival of Racing is set to bring enormous excitement and increased exposure to the sport in western Victoria,” he said.

“Our four greyhound clubs in the west – Ballarat, Geelong, Horsham and Warrnambool – each has a rich history and are all integral to the fabric of our sport

READY TO RUN: Horsham Greyhound Racing Club manager Justin Brilliant is pictured with greyhound Repercussions, trained

Many of the best greyhounds in the world hail from the west – from the immortal Warrnambool Warrior Bold Trease through to present-day champions like Shima Shine and Tiggerlong Tonk – and I have no doubt the hundreds of trainers and breeders based in the west of the state will be deter-

mined to secure all four country cups on offer during the festival.”

Western Victoria has almost 3500 greyhound breeders, owners or trainers and employs more than 660 people. It also involves about 300 volunteers, while generating $77-million annually in the western part of the state.

Fingers crossed for T20 Sunday H

BY DEAN LAWSON

orsham Cricket Association’s management board has pushed its big Sunday of T20 finals forward a week in the wake of the State Government COVID-19 lockdown.

Association secretary Josh Mahony said fingers were now crossed the lockdown, which forced the cancellation of all cricket last weekend, would lift in time for the A, B and C grade games at Horsham City Oval. The finals will culminate with an A Grade clash between Homers and Jung Tigers.

“We look forward to seeing the local community support our T20 finals if we can. So here’s hoping,” Mr Mahony said.

The latest ‘circuit-breaker’ lockdown has forced officials to abandon a senior representative game between Horsham and Warrnambool teams, previously scheduled for this Sunday.

Horsham association also declared last week’s domestic games a draw, awarding teams three points each.

If home-and-away games go ahead as planned this Saturday, Noradjuha-Toolondo will take on Homers in a ripping encounter, Horsham Saints will meet West Wimmera and Rupanyup-Minyip will take on Jung Tigers in a critical match.

The clash between the Tigers and Blue Panthers looms a major showdown with RupanyupMinyip trailing the fourth-placed Tigers by a game but ahead by percentage.

Wilson to manage football leagues Former Wimmera Machinery Field Days figurehead Murray Wilson is AFL Wimmera Mallee’s new leagues manager.

AFL regional manager Jason Muldoon confirmed Mr Wilson’s appointment as part of a reset of the AFL Wimmera Mallee operational services.

Mr Muldoon said Mr Wilson joined regional football administration with a wealth of management experience.

“Murray will work alongside AFLWM operations manager Jennie French to deliver an operations service to Wimmera Football Netball League and Horsham District Foot-

M R A E R I F

If the Tigers win they will go close to cementing a season-proper finals berth, but a Blue Panthers victory will add fresh spice to the finals run and potentially send the Jungsters tumbling.

Noradjuha-Toolondo, meanwhile, is setting the pace but only marginally ahead of perennial powerhouse team Homers.

The Bullants lead the Pigeons by only three points, which means top spot is up for grabs in their 40-over-a-side contest.

West Wimmera is sitting third, on equal points with the Tigers, and victory over the Saints would consolidate their hold on a top-four spot.

But the Saints can be hard to beat, especially if their batsmen can exploit more overs at the crease, and an upset victory would send the Westerners into a three-way dogfight on the fringe of the four.

The association has tentatively pencilled in March 13 for its presentation night.

This week: Saturday: One-day games, NoradjuhaToolondo v Homers at Horsham City Oval, Horsham Saints v West Wimmera at Coughlin Park in Horsham, Rupanyup-Minyip v Jung Tigers at Minyip. Sunday: T20 finals at Horsham City Oval, C Grade, Quantong v Colts; B Grade, Laharum v Lubeck-Murtoa; A Grade, Homers v Jung Tigers.

Last week: Home and away, abandoned.

Ladder: Overall, Noradjuha-Toolondo 51 points, 1.07 percent; Homers 48, 1.63; West Wimmera 39, 1.19; Jung Tigers 39, 0.95; RupanyupMinyip 33, 1.04; Horsham Saints 6, 0.44.

Murray Wilson ball Netball League,” he said.

“AFL Wimmera Mallee was delighted with the quality of

applicants from across the state who expressed an interest in the position.

“We wish Murray a successful career with AFL Wimmera Mallee.”

Mr Wilson will start in his position from March 1.

As well as his 13 years with the field days, Mr Wilson has had management positions with Landcare Australia and was Conservation Volunteers Australia regional manager.

A Leadership Wimmera graduate, he has had many roles in community football, netball and cricket and sat on a Tourism Advisory Committee.
