Lessons in the outdoors A GROUP of children from Penbank School, Moorooduc, was last Wednesday given on-the-spot information about the environment by Indigenous artist, teacher and culture expert Lionel Lauch. The children were among the thousands of schoolchildren attending The Briars, Mt Martha, during the Mornington Peninsula Schools Environment Week, 15-18 March. Some parts of the 230 hectare Mornington Peninsula Shire-owned property were closed to the public to make way for the influx of pupils from throughout the peninsula. Organisers says the annual environment week includes a range of activities “designed to instil in children, a sense that they can make a difference through living a sustainable life and contributing to a sustainable future”. “In fulfilling our mission of ‘connecting students to their environment’, we aim to build upon the excellent learning taking place in schools throughout the peninsula to ensure our children understand their environment and have an awareness of its impact on our health and wellbeing,” environment week committee president Silvio Vitale said.

with police at Federation Square and surrounding streets last Saturday evening (12 March) as terrified bystanders attending the Moomba Festival fled for safety. The high-profile clash caused Premier Daniel Andrews to vow to get tough with violent gangs. “What happened on Saturday evening was completely unacceptable,” Mr An-

drews said at a press conference the day after the brawl. “I will make sure that Victoria Police has whatever they need to smash these gangs and make sure we don’t have a repeat.” Mr Andrews said those responsible would “feel the full force of the law”. Police say the Apex gang, initially young men of Sudanese descent, now

has more than 150 members from various backgrounds including Sudanese, Caucasian, Pacific Islander and Middle Eastern youths. The gang formed about 18 months ago and is named after a street in Dandenong where the gang’s founders lived. Police across Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula have noted gangs such as Apex have been responsible for

violent carjackings in the area (‘Mobile gangs target south’, The Times 7/9/15). The gangs use social media, including Facebook, and encryption apps to target the homes of owners of luxury cars to steal the vehicles. In some cases, the offenders smash their way into homes at night and demand the car keys from owners at gunpoint. Continued Page 13

Dream sites for trainspotters AN irregular-shaped block of surplus railway land at Somerville is proposed to be sold for housing. For train aficionados this would represent a much sought-after opportunity to get close to passenger and freight services. Residents could look forward to unparalleled growth in container movements, based on the Mornington Peninsula Shire’s dream to help create a massive port at Hastings, with kilometre-long freight trains running day and night. The proposal, discussed at council on 15 March, comes from VicTrack, a state-owned business enterprise run by an independent board. It plays a pivotal role supporting the state government to provide improved public transport outcomes “without relying on government funding”, according to its website. The 1.1-hectare roughly triangular lot is part of the Somerville station land to be rezoned from Public Use to General Residential – medium density – of no more than 34 dwellings, four of which would be provided for affordable housing. However, permit conditions placed on the land would detract substantially from a railway buff’s noisy enjoyment of their property – such measures as “a high quality boundary fence (in terms of materials, colours, height, acoustic protection and appearance) along the western boundary” are envisaged. This might require the householder to build an additional storey, with ob-

servation deck, to overlook the acoustic fence and retain their railway view. Appropriately, the land will be dealt with under “a new fast-track planning scheme amendment process specifically put in place for the sale of state government land”, councillors were told.

VicTrack had retained sufficient land for possible duplication and electrification of the rail line, staff said. Questioned by councillors, strategic projects and planning team leader Frank Mangan undertook to ask the government why the surplus land was

“in that particular shape”. Councillors also voted to seek further information about VicTrack’s justification for selling the land and for council to substitute development requirements with a shire-initiated alternative document.

They also specified that the item return to council within 60 days – after discussion that the government might require 90 days to respond to the shire’s questions, based on past shire experience with Spring St. David Harrison

Porsche driver dodges police POLICE are having difficulty in catching up with the driver of a Porsche Cayenne stolen from a Mornington car yard. The latest model of the upmarket SUV retails for more than $139,000 and the one stolen on 9 March has been spotted several times in Frankston and Seaford. However police have been unable to catch up with the erratic driver who has sped off at high speed, disobeyed traffic control signals and turned off the vehicles headlights. The white 4x4 Porsche, bearing registration

plates ABF 179, was stolen overnight but police believe the registration plates are being changed each night. Police patrols have spotted the Porsche has been seen on the Dandenong-Frankston Rd, Sussex St and Bellevue Cres in Seaford, on the Frankston Freeway and on Ballarto Rd. When seen early Friday morning its registration plate was 1DT 2LC. Anyone who sees the vehicle or has any information can call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or file a confidential report at crimestoppersvic. com.au

Crime ‘stable’ on peninsula

Booked in an instant: Police and the Sheriff’s office last Thursday used number plate recognition technology to identify motorists with outstanding warrants driving along Mornington-Tyabb Rd, Mornington.

CRIME on the Mornington Peninsula has bucked the rising statewide trend according to the latest figures released by the Crime Statistics Agency. While reported offences across Victoria in 2015 jumped by 8.1 per cent compared to 2014, crime on the peninsula remained “stable”, in the CSA’s opinion, with a 5.4 per cent rise between 2014 and 2015. Crimes against the person, including assault, fell on the peninsula from 1579 in 2014 to 1410 last year. There were eight homicides last year and seven in 2014. There were 10,997 reported crimes across the peninsula last year compared to 10,303 in 2014. The crime statistics are released by the Crime Statistics Agency every quarter and the latest figures were published last Wednesday. At a Melbourne media conference last Thursday Premier Daniel Andrews said he is unhappy at the statewide rise in crime. “Victorians don’t want any excuses and I will offer none,” he said. “Instead what I will say to every Victorian, and indeed, first among them, to the Chief Commissioner of Victoria Police Graham Ashton, if you need additional powers you will get them. “If you need additional resources, you will get them.” Victoria Police chief commissioner Graham Ashton said street gangs, such as the Apex gang who rioted in Melbourne CBD last Saturday evening, were mostly responsible for a rise in vehicle thefts and aggravated burglaries.

Man dies after utility hits tree POLICE are seeking witnesses to a crash at Red Hill South early Saturday in which a man in his early 20s died. It is believed the man’s white Ford Ranger utility failed to negotiate a right hand bend leaving the road to the left and hitting a tree on the south side of the road. Investigators have been told the utility was travelling west along Stanleys Rd, between Tonkins and Red Hill roads. The driver died at the scene. Leading Senior Constable Adrian Shelbourne, of Hastings highway patrol, said the collision is believed to have occurred between 4am and 6.50am. His death brought this year’s road toll for the state to 75, 15 more than at this time last year. Anyone who witnessed the crash can call Leading Senior Constable Shelbourne on 5970 7800, Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make a confidential report at www. crimestoppersvic.com.au

FOUR people survived a light plane crash at Tooradin Airfield on Sunday. Witnesses say strong winds appeared to buffet the Cessna 182T as it came into land. The plane struck three other planes as it came into the airfield, bending in half before it came to a halt. The four people aboard, a man in his 50s, another in his 20s, a woman, 31, and a four-year-old girl were all taken to Frankston Hospital and treated for light injuries, bruises and shock.

Plover protectors weigh in on side of dogs Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire is under pressure to set aside more leashfree areas before dogs are banned from beaches between Flinders and Point Nepean. The total ban on dogs on beaches within the Mornington Peninsula National Park comes into effect in November. As well as banning dogs, the measures to protect the endangered hooded plover may also include laying poison baits for foxes and trapping feral cats. Groups that effectively lobbied the state government for the dog ban are now campaigning for more leash-free areas close to the beaches. The seasoned hooded plover campaigners dispute assurances from Mornington Peninsula Shire that the number of leash-free areas on the southern peninsula is adequate. Privately, they say the shire has a negative reaction to being told what to do by the state government. When announcing the dog ban Environment, Climate Change and Water Minister Lisa Neville said many people were walking their dogs through hooded plover breeding areas despite restrictions being tightened in 2013. “The evidence shows that dogs and hooded plovers don’t mix. This ban is the right decision to protect a vulnerable and threatened species for which the Mornington Peninsula National Park is an important habitat,� Ms Neville said.

The run’s over: As from 1 November no dogs will be allowed within Mornington Peninsula National Park.

The losses of eggs and chicks by breeding hooded plovers have increased dramatically with just five chicks fledging from 245 eggs during the past two breading seasons. BirdLife Australia data shows that 70 per cent of hooded plover chicks were successfully fledged in areas where dogs are prohibited. The groups, which have spent nine years fighting for the plovers, credit the political lobbying of South East-

ern Centre for Sustainability president Steve Karakitsos with the ban being brought in five years earlier than expected. Mr Karakitsos wants a meeting between the shire, BirdLife representatives and Dogwalking Victoria. “The reality is that there are absolutely no leash free areas adjacent to the MPNP for dog walkers to access once [the dog ban is] put into effect,� Mr Karakitsos stated last week in an

email to the shire. He said three areas suitable for dogs to be leash-free have been identified by Dr Grainne Maguire of BirdLife Australia. Mr Karakitsos said declaring extra leash-free areas for dogs would allow a “seamless implementation� of the dog ban. “The shire does not operate within a vacuum and according to Holding Redlich Lawyers is a responsible au-

thority operating under jurisdiction of the Victorian State [and] has a responsibility to adhere to and [is] liable to prosecution for failure to act reasonably and responsibly,� Mr Karakitsos said. He said Dr Maguire was completing a paper which “shows compliance is significantly higher on dog prohibited beaches and that off leash dog beaches do attract more dog walkers, shifting them in the local landscape to these areas. Hence the need to ensure enough of these are provided�. Diane Lewis, president Friends of the Hooded Plover (Mornington Peninsula), feels “very sorry� for dog owners who obeyed the existing dog restrictions. “Many of our members will be affected by this decision. They too will need to find alternative places to walk their dogs,� Ms Lewis said. “It is now up to the shire to provide suitable off leash areas for residents to exercise their dogs. “I estimate with over 25,000 dogs costing $35 each year to be registered, the shire collects in excess of $800,000. It is time some of this income is used for the benefit of all dog owners by providing the necessary spaces for their pets’ wellbeing.� The national park includes the coast between London Bridge and Bushrangers Bay, plus a stretch from Stockyard Creek to Flinders, and also an area north of Cape Schanck called Greens Bush. Until 1 November, dog walking is allowed in about 14 kilometres of the park’s 42-kilometre coastline.

Rock fishing a deadly activity Boat ramp LIFESAVING Victoria has issued a list of safety measures for rock fishing which it sees as one of the most dangerous aquatic sports in Australia. The rocky shorelines of Mornington Peninsula facing Bass Strait are as much a lure to anglers as their baits are to fish, and just as deadly. On 10 January a 67-year-old man died after being swept from rocks while fishing at Sorrento. One week later a 26-year-old fisherman was washed off the rocks at Bridgewater Bay in Portland. The two deaths sparked an appeal from Life Saving Victoria for anglers to take more precautions. Top of the list is for rock fishers to wear lifejackets and never fish alone.

The check list also cautions them to wear appropriate, lightweight clothing and footwear, avoid fishing during rough weather or where there are large waves, plan and escape route and “observe first, fish later�. A news release from LSV quotes Chinese fisherman Victor Fan, who survived a rock fishing drowning incident in January 2012 at Pyramid Rock. “People don’t realise just how dangerous rock fishing can be, I know I certainly didn’t,� Mr Fan is quoted as saying. “I urge people to learn from my mistake and ensure they prepare for changing conditions and always wear a lifejacket. No fish is worth risking your life.�

Statistics show there were 13 drownings along the Bass Strait coast between 2000-2012. Most of the incidents involved men aged 35-59 years from a non-English speaking background. None were wearing lifejackets. “It’s a sad reality that the simple act of wearing a lifejacket would have most likely saved many lives,� LSV principal research associate Dr Bernadette Matthews said. “If you do get swept off the rocks unexpectedly, wearing a properly fitting lifejacket will keep you afloat with your head above water until help can arrive.� Information on rock fishing: www.lifesavingvictoria.com.au/rockfishing

Court win may signal shire’s new hard line A $15,000 fine imposed on a bush block owner for illegally clearing land could be a warning to property owners that Mornington Peninsula Shire intends to take a tougher line with law breakers. The shire has not been noted for such prosecutions since in one notable case it won a conviction but never collected the $1145 fine when the property owner challenged it. In more recent high-profile cases land owners were successfully prosecuted, one for illegal land clearing, the other for illegally dumping sand on a property. The shire hailed the cases as a victory but declined to reveal whether the combined $35,000 in fines was ever collected. By contrast, the shire several years ago successfully prosecuted a Mornington woman for having more than the permitted number of cats. The most recent case involved land in Barkers Rd, Main Ridge, owned by Ms Antoinette Noronho, who pleaded guilty in Frankston magistrates court a fortnight ago to clearing native vegetation on her green wedge block.

She was fined $15,000 and ordered to pay the shire’s S4000 costs, She will possibly also face a hefty personal legal bill. The court was told she had applied to clear part of her land two years ago but officers who visited the block found clearing had already occurred. Prosecutions are expensive and the shire has always maintained it needs to be a “model litigant�, especially when dealing with some of the Mornington Peninsula’s financial heavyweights. Some have seen this as an excuse not to go to court. However, taking an expedient approach to possible lawbreakers with deep pockets – as occurred when then T’Gallant winery-restaurant owner Foster’s Ltd challenged its $1145 for breaking permit conditions – simply sends a signal that the shire can be made to blink, or look the other way, to the point that it will think twice and thrice before starting legal proceedings. Locals know of many permit condition breaches, often at green wedge premises such as winery restaurants, often related to patron numbers well

over what permits allow. The result can be chaotic and dangerous roadside parking and overburdened waste disposal systems – septic tanks – which often results in groundwater pollution that is near-impossible to rectify. Patrons at some green wedge restaurants are keenly aware of this by way of offensive odours on hot, busy days. In some cases the shire was inclined to ignore evidence supplied by frustrated locals who suffered from smell, illegal parking, illegal patron numbers and noise outside permitted opening hours. A shire officer once justified tolerance of such lawless behaviour by arguing that the responsible authority (the shire) was reluctant to take action against premises that provided the public good of employment. The next few months could well indicate a new, more stringent attitude to law breaking beyond parking too long at shopping centres. David Harrison

site search

A STUDY will be held to identify sites for new boat ramps on the Mornington Peninsula. The Mornington Peninsula Marine Alliance says a steering committee will hire consultants to undertake the $40,000 feasibility study. The state government-financed study will also investigate improving existing boat ramps. Head of the marine alliance Stefan Borzeki, who operates Yaringa boat harbour near Somerville, said 60 per cent of the state’s recreational boating took place on Western Port and Port Phillip. He said there had been “been little renewal or replacement of marine infrastructure in the past 25 years ‌ This under investment is a grave risk for the viability of the marine industryâ€?. “Boat ownership is increasing and the government has recognised the need to meet the demands of more access to our waters,â€?’ Mr Borzecki said. “With this demand there is a great opportunity to create more local employment in the marine sector, and more local jobs means greater local prosperity.â€? Mr Borzeki said the steering committee would include representatives from Parks Victoria, Mornington Peninsula Shire, Boating Industry Association Victoria and “key local industry persons from the MPMAâ€?. The committee will seek expressions of interest from three “suitably qualified consultants to ensure the project is run in a timely, responsive and comprehensive mannerâ€?. “Victoria cannot lose more jobs, we as a community must create more jobs and the marine sector is a great industry for the Mornington Peninsula; the key to this is creating easier access to the waters of Port Phillip and Western Port.â€?

Schools hit high notes IT was Patterson River Secondary College’s turn to host the annual Singfest that sees choirs from schools across the South Eastern Region meet, learn and perform choral music under the leadership of a guest conductor. Conductor Dr Kathleen McGuire, co-artistic director of the School of Hard Knocks, took up the baton in Carrum last Wednesday (16 March) to lead about 200 students from ten schools across the south east this year. Dr McGuire’s career as a conductor, composer and educator spans more than three decades and five countries. She has earned multiple degrees including the Doctor of Musical Arts from the University of Colorado at Boulder. A variety of choral music was composed and arranged by Dr McGuire to help students improve their musicality, intonation and sight reading abilities. Since the guest conductor was also the composer and arranger of this year’s music at Singfest it gave students a greater insight into the music learned and performed. Nineteen Patterson River Secondary students from years 7 to 12 took part in Singfest. “The day ran very smoothly with students very happy to go out of their way to meet and help students from other schools,” principal Maree Vinocuroff said. Dr McGuire was assisted over the course of the day by accompanist Yollette Stewart.

Rewards flow from sustainable lingo IT WAS a small gallery that gathered at the shire’s Rosebud bunker for the council meeting of Tuesday evening, 15 March. And a diminished roll call of councillors: Anne Shaw and Andrew Dixon had been felled by ’flu; Lynn Bowden was also an apology. It was the day after the Labor Day public holiday and the festive feeling lingered. Fred Crump of Mornington had brought his kite, in the shape of an eagle, that had soared recently at the Rosebud kite festival. And he brought a question. Shire tree planting in Mornington Park, including a banksia that had been moved just a couple of metres, had been an unmitigated failure. Nearly all had died. When would the shire hire “proper qualified tree doctors”, he wanted to know. Responding, shire chief operating officer Alison Leighton said this was disappointing. “Council has recently instructed our contractors to increase the frequency of watering trees, particularly in the Mornington area,” she said. The shire needs its gadflies, its Fred Crumps, defenders of their communities. A little later we were given a glimpse of how shire officers prepare applications for state government grants – their strategy, if you like, to use a favoured bureaucratic term. It is bureaucrats versus bureaucrats. A word of explanation. In the shire’s reorganisational turmoil over more than a year, the word “sustainable” has been pitched in the bin. We are no longer “committed to a sustainable peninsula”. Our executive team is no longer labelled director of “sustainable” this or that. It was meaningless white noise. Good riddance. So when Rita Kontos presented the Sus-

tainable Transport Strategy (2015-2020) for adoption, Cr Tim Rodgers pounced. “Sustainable” must go, he grumbled. Ms Kontos, the shire’s “sustainable” transport project coordinator (a title CW confidently predicts will soon change), defended stoutly, if wordily, and ultimately successfully against the formidable Tim Rodgers-Hugh Fraser tag team. It boiled down to this: when applying for state or other government funding, you play their game. If “sustainable” is part of their lingo, and your funding application might get knocked back if you don’t use the word, bung it in, at every possible opportunity. And, as Ms Kontos explained, there are several transport “strategies” – known to to plain folk as “plans” – each with its own meaning. The common or garden “transport strategy” differs from the “integrated transport strategy”, which contains far more transport elements than the “active transport strategy”. There’s one more, which I must mention here, at peril of causing readers’ brains to explode. It is, of course Ms Kontas’s “sustainable transport strategy”, which incorporates “active transport” (cycling and walking), community, public transport, ride sharing and any other identified sustainable modes of transport.

Stay with me, Dear Reader. We have now arrived at the gist, the nub, the denouement, of the tale. Here is the crucial exchange, verbatim: Cr Fraser: Have the department actually made it plain that you have to use the word “sustainable” in the title or is it simply that it’s obvious from the contents of the document itself? Ms Kontos: The funding that will be made available will be made available for active and sustainable transport projects. Naming it anything else when in fact it is mainly focused on sustainable transport projects would not be a reflection of what the document actually is. Cr Fraser: So what you’re able to confirm to me is that the government criteria specified for funding, if we should seek it, requires a reference to how it’s sustainable. Ms Kontos: It may not require the term sustainable to be mentioned. However, the funding will be made available for sustainable transport strategies. So I think we would be better placed if we had the name kept as it is so that we can confidently apply for this grant without necessarily making an excuses or a long description of why it’s not called a sustainable transport strategy. This makes perfect sense to devotees of “Yes, Minister”. CW feels a certain sympathy and admiration for shire officers who speak one language outside their work hours and another when they enter the shire portals. It is said one only truly speaks a second language when one dreams in it. Do shire officers dream in bureaucratese? David Harrison

Signing in for survey DOZENS of people have already signed up to participate in a survey to find out what residents and ratepayers want for the future of the Mornington Peninsula. The online survey being conducted by the community advocacy organisation Peninsula Speaks will be independently managed and analysed and its findings sent to all three levels of government – federal, state and local. Peninsula Speaks’ co-founder Christine Haydon said the group hoped to have 3000 people on the survey register sop results adequately reflected community views. Follow-up surveys would be conducted using a database of people who registered to participate in the first survey. “Their input will be vital in informing decision making at federal, state and local government levels to shape the future allowing for population growth, managed development and climate change,” Ms Haydon said. “The process will involve simple online surveys on a wide ranging series of topics distributed electronically on a periodic basis.” The group’s other co-founder Peter Avery said Peninsula Speaks wanted to “gain the widest possible range of views about the Mornington Peninsula, both now and how it could be by 2030”. He said answers to the survey would “identify the key priorities for the future and help inform and guide the key decision makers on the peninsula”. “Individual answers will be collated along with the answers from all the other completed surveys, so they will never be used on an individual basis.” To register for the Peninsula Speaks online survey about the peninsula’s future go to: info@peninsulaspeaks.org.au

Changes for soccer women By Craig MacKenzie PENINSULA Strikers soccer club will build two women’s change rooms at Centenary Park. “We promised the Frankston community the great sporting facilities it deserves and that’s exactly what we’re delivering,” Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke said when announcing a $100,000 grant from the Community Sports Infrastructure Fund. “They love their sport in Frankston and this fabulous project will mean participants of all abilities will be able to strut their stuff at a facility they can be proud of.” The new female-friendly facilities will allow the club to increase women’s and girls’ participation rates by enhancing the match day and training experience for all female players. “The building for this project will start in April or May when the large club overhaul gets underway and to say that we are ecstatic about this announcement is a massive understatement,” Strikers president Mark Brandon said. “The extension to our training facilities, the new lights, the pending clubroom refurbishment and now the additional change rooms are going to allow our women’s wing and our juniors to double in size.”

Helping fundraiser CRIB Point resident Judy Coles is battling leukaemia and will have a lifesaving bone marrow transplant operation at the Alfred hospital next month. The mother-of-three is holding a huge fundraising garage sale this weekend Saturday 27-Sunday 28 March, 9am-5pm at 71 Disney St, Crib Point. No early birds/no holds. There will be something for everyone, not just toys, including kitchenware, household furniture, bric-a-brac and more.

Ace attraction MORE than 150 of the top tennis players from Australia and overseas are competing in the Mornington Peninsula Tennis International until 27 March. The peninsula is hosting two consecutive men’s international pro tour events on the clay courts of the Mornington Tennis Centre, Civic Reserve Mornington. The Mornington Peninsula Tennis International is part of Tennis Australia’s pro tour series that enables players to earn world ranking points and prizemoney in regional and metropolitan areas. There are no charges for spectators at the Mornington Tennis Centre, Civic Reserve, Dunns Rd, Mornington.

Gangs have no regard Police outrun motorcyclist for the law – police Continued from Page 1 Gang members, aged 14 and up, show little regard for innocent victims of their crimes. A 15-year-old Patterson Lakes boy believed to be associated with the Apex gang was arrested after an early morning collision in Mordialloc in November last year that killed 47-year-old mother-of-two Amanda Matheson who was driving to work. A contentious ‘no-pursuit’ policy introduced last year has been defended by senior police who say lives are at risk when offenders are chased since they may be unlicensed and have no driving experience. Despite the Premier’s insistence that gang members will “feel the full force of the law” some police officers are frustrated at lenient sentences handed out to young offenders. In September last year, Frankston Embona Detective Sergeant Marty O’Brien said crime gangs such as Apex had a “blatant disregard for the law”.

“We have 15 and 17-year-olds committing armed robberies and burglaries. They have no family support and their ages mean they walk straight from court.” He said one youth was bailed by Frankston Magistrates’ Court after committing 14 armed robberies. “Why a court would even entertain the idea of bail I don’t know,” he said. “We need to get harder because it’s getting worse. Upon conviction, they should be sent straight out of the country. It’s a privilege to reside here.” Police arrested four people on the night of the Melbourne brawl and have vowed to track down other offenders. On Monday afternoon (14 March) two men, believed to be associated with the Apex gang, were arrested by police in Dandenong. The men, both aged 18, are alleged to have been involved in a recent spate of aggravated burglaries, carjackings and armed robberies across south east suburbs.

A MOTORCYCLIST pulled up at an Operation Wasp roadblock at Peninsula Link Bungower Rd exit at 11.30pm Friday 11 March ran off while being questioned by police. The 28-year-old Frankston North man was caught after a short pursuit and remanded in custody to appear at Frankston Magistrates Court Monday 14 March. Police said the man outstanding warrants and was wanted for several burglaries. Sergeant Steve Duffee of Mornington police said all Peninsula Link off

ramps were blocked during Operation Wasp. “It is a road police operation where we set up off the exits on Friday at the start of the long weekend. It is a called Wasp as it is part of a sting operation,” Sergeant Duffee said. Senior Sergeant Andrew Brockway, commander of the Division Four Highway Patrol said the operation breath tested drivers from about 2800 vehicles. “We identified six that exceeded the prescribed concentration of alcohol and two that exceeded the prescribed

concentration of drugs. Two vehicles were impounded from these offences. We also identified one disqualified driver and two unlicensed drivers and issued a further nine penalty notices,” Senior Sergeant Brockway said. “These statistics are on par with what we have identified with previous Wasps, so issues with people continuing to drive while affected by alcohol and drugs are still continuing. We will continue to do these operations over Easter and the coming Anzac long weekend.”

Petrol drive-offs problem at pumps FRANKSTON has been named as a municipality where petrol station owners must beware of drivers leaving without paying for fuel. A state parliamentary inquiry into petrol drive-offs found Frankston is the sixth highest area in the state for nonpayment of fuel.

The inquiry into fuel drive-offs report, tabled in Parliament last week, revealed drivers left service stations in Frankston without paying for petrol 1604 times from 2005-2014. The Mornington Peninsula did not rank in the top 10 drive-off locations. Kingston was ranked 10th in the

drive-off stakes with 1233 in the same period. Brimbank (4035), Casey (3190) and Hume (2480) took out the top three places in the petrol drive-off hall of shame. Victoria Police told the inquiry numberplate thefts have contributed to a rise in petrol thefts in recent years.

LETTERS No safety in program

Peta Murphy’s statements (“Safe Schools needed”, Letter, 8/3/16) are misleading. Roz Ward of La Trobe University, who developed this program, told the 2015 Melbourne Marxism conference that its purpose was to undermine the capitalist-imposed cultural and moral norms around sex, marriage, and the family. To make the program palatable she presented it as an anti-bullying measure, but it has nothing to do with bullying. Bullying for sexual reasons is a very minor reason for bullying. Further, if it was about bullying, it would present advice on how to stop bullying and what to do if bullied. Children as young as 11 are taught that their physical gender does not matter – their gender is whatever they feel it is. So, if a boy feels he is a girl, then he is a girl. Schools, instead of recommending psychiatric help for this delusion, are encouraging it. For example, Frankston High School encourages boys who feel that they are girls to dress in girl’s uniforms and use the girls’ toilets and changing rooms. This program directs children to the Minus18 website, where girls who think they might be boys are shown how to bind their chests to prevent their breasts from growing. It also tells children how to hide their trails so that their parents won’t be able to check what web sites they visit. This sexualisation of young children and the promotion of homosexuality and pathological gender dysphoria are psychologically damaging. If you are concerned for your children’s welfare, you should take action to prevent or stop this program being taught at your school. John Rodda, Safety Beach

We were old navy so it was delightful to inspect the training schools and note the technological advances. The commanding officer, his executive officer, his visit liaison officer and his command team made a personal contribution in their own weekend down time to welcome us back from a future in 1966. All involved should be commended, as well as all those outlets which accommodated and victualled us. Thanks should also to the wider Western Port and Mornington people who may have been unaware of our visit but they should not remain unremarked. They drive very safely. We lived among you once and it was nice to be back with you again, if only briefly. Whatever happened to those raw young men? Many of us returned to throng again. We were also honoured when decorated Vietnam veteran Dave Sabben of Mt Eliza bade us farewell. Mike Fogarty, Weston, ACT

talking about 20 per cent reduction with an absolute minimum of 40 per cent by 2050. Today, we hear that February was the hottest on record. How often do we hear phrases like “the hottest on record...”; “it has never been so dry....”; “the worst storm to hit....” and “the highest flood ever recorded...”? Climate change is the most serious problem the world has had to face. Some countries take it seriously by implementing permanent means of reducing the CO2 in the atmosphere. Why then would a country, when every possible effort has been made to reduce CO2 emissions, decide to move their most experienced and knowledgeable climate scientists to another field and reduce the funding for climate science? Why would they plan to open huge coal mines when any other country would be finding alternatives to polluting the atmosphere with CO2? Does the news that our Great Barrier Reef is bleaching at an ever increasing rate not create panic with politicians? Australia desperately needs scientists who are creating progressive programs to avoid the above disasters. We need a scientist who understands and is prepared to act on climate change as a Minister for the Environment. Peter Strickland, Balnarring

My Vote is for sky rail the sooner the better. It seems the major parties are in disagreement again, with the Liberals calling for the elevated rail plans to be dumped and the local Liberals favouring undergrounding the railway. The Labor government, which committed to fix our traffic problems, believes that lifting the railway high over the many crossings would be cost effective. The cost of tunnelling from Mordialloc to Carrum in the bayside primary sand dune and the cost of defending the tunnel from the high water table, concrete corrosion and puddling from vibration is overlooked by the tunnel lobby. The travellers on the elevated railway will enjoy a great view, not locked into a spooky dark tube. Objectors, instead of frustrating the government on sky rail, how about getting it moving on the long awaited length of the Mornington Peninsula Freeway from Springvale Rd towards Moorabbin. Les Williams, Edithvale

I do wish that Michael G Free would stop misquoting me (“Illegal proof”, Letters 8/3/16). At no stage did I say that Tony Abbott “invented” the phrase “illegal Immigrant”. What I did say was that it was “coined” by him. If Michael G Free would care to look at a thesaurus, to coin a phrase means “as the saying goes”, “in a nutshell”, “axiomatically”,”platitudi nously”. No mention of the word invent. I hope Mr Free still enjoys reading those three large study books as I couldn’t give damn as to who invented “illegal Immigrant”. As far as my political preferences go, both Liberal and Labor parties are nothing more than pathetic shadows of what they once were. Because of his red herrings I can only assume he thinks gulag is more acceptable than concentration camp. The turmoil that the world populace is experiencing is down to George Dubyah, Tony Blair and, to a small extent, John Howard. Up until the invasion of Iraq there were no car bombings throughout the world and no Middle Eastern cities being destroyed as is in Syria and Libya or the hundreds of thousands of people being killed or displaced by America, Russia and the splinter groups. Why Mr Free mentioned baby Asha from Nepal is beyond me. He stated that Nepal was a “country with no war”, [but] Maoist terrorist groups have been operating in Nepal since 1996. The United Nation High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) has deemed that Asha’s parents are refugees and not criminals and that goes for all those people in detention centres. John Cain, McCrae

May I extend a Bravo Zulu message (naval talk for well done) to all your readers. Early this month, a naval reunion at HMAS Cerberus marked the 50th anniversary of the entry of supplementary list RAN midshipmen to HMAS Cerberus, or Flinders Naval Depot.

At the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference in 2009 the world representatives came to the conclusion that in order avoid the disastrous consequences of climate change we must become a society creating low carbon emissions. Australia, as a member of the “haves”, was committed to a reduction of 25 per cent to 40 per cent of emissions by 2020 (four years away). At Paris last year our representatives were

Greg Hunt [Flinders MP and Environment Minister] seems to be still stuck in the Abbott era.

Suicide alarm The latest Australian Bureau of Statistics figures on suicide show this is a national calamity. On the Lifeline Facebook page was reference to the trending up of male suicide figures since 2005 to three quarters of the total, representing 41.5 men a week. The Age had a front page heading mentioning the 12 per cent increase in suicides of younger women (that men were 75 per cent of the total was mentioned on page seven). Suicide Prevention Australia has described suicide as a “human behaviour - a response to unbearable psychological pain”. Lifeline CEO, Pete Schmigel stated: “Devastating is the only way to describe the increase in deaths by suicide in Australia”. Jasmin Newman writes on Facebook that “systems and structures should be working with men, not against them, family court, child support agencies, family violence, and child protective services, and of course financial ruin, homelessness, and helplessness, when they feel everything is taken away from them”. It is time we all realised the huge deficit in management of suicide completions.

The Western Port Whisperer

ALTHOUGH the whispers reached Whisperer HQ a while ago, The Whisperer believes the relationship between Victoria Police, the Shire, the Cerberus Ward Councillor and the State MP for Hastings has reached troubled waters. A war of words is erupting over the effectiveness of CCTV cameras in Hastings at night time. At a recent meeting of bureaucrats and locals, The Whisperer has been reliably informed a local asked a police officer based at Hastings why the cameras weren’t being used for vandalism targetting local buildings. The response: the cameras aren’t fitted with infra-red technology, thus are ineffective at night. This claim was backed by the local councillor. The local pursued the matter with our State MP and the Shire hierarchy, who confirmed the

PAGE 14

Western Port News 22 March 2016

cameras have infra-red technology because ‘the cameras are state of the art’. Four hours later, the local in question received a phone call from a different Shire department claiming the initial information given was incorrect, the cameras are not infra- red. This situation is messy as the police member, the local ward councillor and one department of the shire say the cameras are not infra- red, and yet the State Member (whose government funded the cameras) and another Shire department are claiming the cameras are infra- red (capable of night time vision). Either way, this situation leaves questions to be answered. If the cameras are infra-red, why are the police not using them to proactively monitor the streets and prevent/attend when crimes are occurring? And why is the local councillor

backing them? On the other hand, if the cameras are not infra-red, why aren’t they? The community was promised the cameras would make Hastings an “inclusive place where people can feel safe and welcome at all hours” (Western Port News, 8th July 2014). The Whisperer wonders if this infra- red/ not infra- red issue is happening in the Port Phillip townships, or is this just another example of Western Port townships being shafted again. One thing is certain, someone will have a red face after this issue is sorted, probably four or five years down the track! *** ‘THE Climate is changing…and so are we’ proclaim the bumper stickers the propaganda machine at Besgrove Street has created. What a wonderful way to tell everyone you’re

passionate about climate change, by using the earth’s resources to create these. The Whisperer is optimistic he will never see the bumper stickers we want…‘I contacted the Shire... still waiting for a response’. *** IN response to an e-mail The Whisperer received from a business owner who claims to be ‘the real Western Port Whisperer’, this Whisperer would like to advise you the real Mrs Whisperer (the other half of Mr and Mrs Whisperer) enjoys watching The Whisperer suffer fixing the car. Unfortunately, The Whisperer cannot accept your offer to fix the car, as Mrs Whisperer has a mean streak a mile long. *** Heard any Whispers?

PENINSULA HAPPENINGS

The Benton tradition

By Melissa Walsh IF you live on the Mornington Peninsula you will have no doubt heard of the Benton name with roads and shopping centres named after the pioneering family. But you may not know the story behind a rich history of five generations that is still very much alive and well and still doing business on the peninsula. Stuart Benton is one such family member the fifth generation Benton who lives on the original family farm and has, unintentionally, followed in his great great grandfather, Benjamin’s career footsteps. Like his ancestor, Stuart is a farmer, licensed real estate agent and insurance broker. Stuart’s great great grandfather, Benjamin James Benton immigrated to Australia with his wife and five children in 1852, and is most notably recognised by the naming of Bentons Road in Mornington in honour of his service to the fledgling Mornington community. Benjamin worked as a real estate agent, agent for insurance and farmer, leaving behind his legacy to his family and community. “While I was working at Elders in Mornington as an estate agent, the idea was presented to me to venture into the insurance industry. VACC Insurance were looking for someone to help grow their rural book of insur-

ance and my history in rural property sales and farming turned out to be the perfect fit.”. “After my eight year stint working in the corporate insurance sector, I started Benton Insurance Services in 2002” said Stuart. Stuart and his wife, Sally, have recently relocated their insurance brokerage from Tyabb, to High Street Hastings. “Our sense of community

and a down to earth attitude is an important part of our business at Benton Insurance Services,” said Stuart. “We don’t just offer one off insurance products for our clients. We provide ongoing service and support in all of our customer’s insurance transactions including claims. We genuinely want to provide the best product at the best price for each customer as part of our

ongoing relationship with them.” While Stuart says that 40 per cent of the business is in the farm and rural sector, Benton Insurance Services is at the forefront of tailor-made insurance products businesses, farm, aviation, trades, marine hull and even home, contents and motor vehicle insurance, Australia wide. “With the business expanding again with additional very talented staff, we moved our office to Hastings.” said Stuart, whose business has grown from two to six in a relatively short time. “As experts in general insurance, we are able to go to the Australian insurance marketplace and selectively look at the offerings of hundreds of insurance providers and pick the best products for our client’s at the most economical price available. Then, each year, we make sure that our client is still getting the best deal by reassessing their risk, their ongoing needs and then compare that to the changing insurance landscape and any new products that may become available. Benton Insurance Services prides itself on building strong and enduring relationships.” “We are a privately owned, family business and our experienced insurance advisors work closely with our clients and utilise their insurance knowledge to help source and

prepare a tailored insurance solution that works for the client. We work on behalf of our customers, not the insurance company.” said Stuart. “Benton Insurance Services is the only brokerage on the Westernport Bay side of the Peninsula with our closest competition being Mt Eliza and Rosebud”. Stuart said. “Our team consists of my wife, Sally, who is a Farm Insurance Specialist, Rachael Jones a Senior Broker specializing in business and the rural sector, Nikki Sheppard Senior Broker who has an extensive background in business insurance, trainee broker Bree Schellhorn who assists in motor vehicle, home and contents insurance, and Jan Wheat, my financial controller who loves the atmosphere of the business so much that she drives from Woolamai every day to work.” In the tradition of his forefathers, Stuart puts a whole new meaning to insurance broking. The fifth generation farmer could not be more down to earth, spending time on his business and then throwing on gumboots to tend to the family 100 acre property in Tyabb where he and his wife run cattle and sheep. Stuart recalls one day while working in his Tyabb office, receiving a phone call from a neighbour that their 1 tonne bull, Nelson, was seen walk-

Races mark retirement THIS weekend the Balnarring Picnic Racing Club Easter Race day is even more significant than usual as it sees the end of an era with the retirement of long-time secretary and treasurer, Neil Heathcote. Holding the esteemed position since 1999, Neil has seen many changes in the club which came from obscurity to be one of the leading race clubs in Victoria. Under his guidance Balnarring has won Premier Picnic Racing Club award four times, seen new facilities built and adhered to strict safety codes. “I have always loved the horse racing and decided when I retired from my fulltime work to get involved in a volunteer position. That was 17 years ago and I am still here at the club,” says Neil with a laugh. “I thought it would be something easy to do in retirement.” As Neil found out, being involved in the picnic racing club became a large part of his life, one that has seen many changes. “The whole picnic racing scene in the late 90s

was at low ebb, and some of my colleagues and I decided to put in the extra yards and bring the club back to its former glory. We were lucky to have good committees and put money back into infrastructure. We put in five new toilet blocks, power, wiring, sky channel and tab wiring underground, put bitumen and a cover over the betting ring and made it more convenient for bookmakers and patrons,” said Neil. Being the only club in Victoria that has the maximum prize money is something Neil and the team are very proud of. “It helps to encourage the competition to come down here to the race course and we now have a 75 per cent increase in entries at each meeting,” said Neil. “It’s been a long journey for me but one that I am proud to have done.” Balnarring Picnic Easter Race Meeting is on Saturday 26 March with Kelly Sports in attendance with games and competitions including an Easter egg hunt with the major prize being a sports pack valued at $250.00.

AT the hinterland heart of the peninsula, this excellent 21-hectare rural holding has dual access from Coolart and Frankston-Flinders Roads and offers a great lifestyle to pursue a variety of agricultural endeavours. About 12 hectares (30 acres) are sown to first grade hay however the slope and aspect of the property would make it suitable for a vineyard or market garden. The property is currently an alpaca farm and would easily support similar livestock also. Eight paddocks are serviced by two dams and there is a 22,500-litre gravity fed water tank. The property has an

impressive number of quality outbuildings including a large heavy machinery shed with high-span clearance, a secure workshop with sliding door, a shearing shed, which could possibly be converted to stables, and a double garage under the roof line of the main home. The well-maintained brick home receives a welcoming amount of natural light, with an expansive view of the land and gardens from most rooms. There is a bright kitchen with plenty of cupboard space and appliances include a wall oven and electric hotplates. A tiled meals area flows through into a handsome

lounge room with striking Canadian redwood walls and a fantastic built-in bar, and from here you step out to the undercover patio which receives plenty of shade for cool afternoon drinks after a days work. A second lounge room can be closed off from the main area which makes this space suitable for a home office or a library. The home has four excellent bedrooms; the larger main bedroom has an ensuite and walk-in robe with other bedrooms sharing two more bathrooms.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Water to be supplied to naval base Compiled by Melissa Walsh APPROVAL has been given by the State Cabinet to the preparation of a scheme by the Water Commission for the supply of water to the Flinders Naval Base, and a number of towns in the Mornington Peninsula. The supply, it is suggested should come from the Bunyip River, but before this can be finally decided further surveys will have to be made. The cost of the scheme will probably run from £160,000 to £170,000. It has been intimated, however, that the State Treasurer is not willing to find that sum unless the Federal authorities are prepared to make satisfactory arrangements for obtaining the money. In anticipation that these arrangements will be made, the Cabinet approved of recommendations by the Water Commission that it be empowered to make surveys, so as to ascertain the most effective sources of supply, and evolve a suitable scheme for submission to the Federal authorities and local councils. The number of towns to serve is eight, namely, Aspendale, Chelsea. Carrum, Seaford, Frankston, Somerville, Mornington, and the Naval Base. If the Bunyip scheme, which, it is thought is the most effective, is adopted, Bunyip, GarfieId. and Cranbourne may also be supplied. *** IN our account of the Mornington Races last, week we placed Gallant-

ry as the winner of the run off in the Kitchener Purse. It should have been Boothnulla first, Gallantry second. *** MESSRS Adamson, Strettle, and Co, auctioneers, of Melbourne, notify in our advertising columns that they will hold chair opening style at the Tanti Yards on 17th April, commencing at one o’clock, for which entries are invited. *** THE many friends of Mr D. Kennedy, of Frankston, will regret to hear of the death of his brother, Corporal Robert Kennedy, which sad event took place at the Alfred Hospital on Sunday last from meningitis. The deceased was only 21 years of age, and expected to sail for the front shortly. *** WE have received a post-card from Gunner H. H. Allen, dated 28th January last, from Tel-el Kebir, in which he states he has met Private Covington, Driver Bert Roberts, Gunners Elliott, Broomhead and Reeves, all of whom were looking well, and he himself is in good health. *** A MEETING of ratepayers, governed by the Dandenong shire (Cr.Pearson), was held on Monday night to consider the proposal to re-subdivide the shire and form a fourth riding, as advocated by members of the South riding. A counter petition, favoring a re-subdivision of the whole shire, without increasing the number of ridings, was,

however, adopted. *** AT the last meeting of the Somerville Patriots’ League there was passed for payment £5 for the Lady Mayoress’s Condensed Milk Fund, the bulk of this sum being raised at the euchre tournament held by the League on 24th February. The total amount sent to the Lady Mayoress’s Milk Fund, for the Soldiers abroad, is now £15 altogether, from this branch. The ladies have sent quite a large consignment of shirts and socks to the Lady Mayoress, who is in charge of the shipping arrangements in Melbourne. *** THE appeal made by the secretary of the Frankston Club for residents to take up 30 debentures at £1 each to enable the Club to pay off the liability due on the billiard-table is meeting with a ready response, and already about 20 of them have been taken up, and Mr. Reynolds does not expect any difficulty in disposing of the remainder. About 95 per cent of the eligible members have enlisted and gone to the front, and by the adoption of the above scheme the table will be retained for their use on their return. *** AT a meeting of the Frankston School Board of Advice and parents, held in the schoolroom on Thursday evening, it was finally decided that a flower show be held on 3rd November next,

the proceeds to be devoted to patriotic purposes, A schedule for competition was submitted, and after being carefully considered was adopted, full particulars of which will be duly advertised. Most of the classes are for children, but there is also included an open class for those who care to compete. Instructions have been sent to all head teachers throughout the State to try and interest the children in their various schools in getting up an exhibition on the date named to assist wounded soldiers. It is also intended to hold an exhibition on a large scale in Melbourne on the same date. *** A RETURNED soldier by the Kenowna last week, named Private H. E. Hughes, who is residing at Wirth’s Rest Home, met with an accident on Sunday evening at the Mile Bridge, Frankston. It appears he was riding behind a motorcyclist, who also had a side-car attached, in which were his wife and child. When approaching the bridge a motor car was coming in the opposite direction, and in order to avoid it he had either to drive into deep sand or into the creek. In attempting this, the soldier was thrown from his seat and sustained concussion of the brain. The side-car capsized,the wife and child fortunately escaping without injury. The injured man was taken to Dr.Maxwell’s surgery, who examined him, and obtained the services of a

passing car to send him back to his home. *** ON Saturday 1st a complimentary social was tendered to Mr H. Downward by the Bittern and Emu Plains Racing Club, as a mark of the appreciation of the members for their secretary on the occasion of his approaching marriage. Under the capable handling of Mr H. Stacey, President, the forty odd members and guests present in the Bittern Hall, had a most convivial time. Songs recitations etc., were rendered and all went merry as the proverbial marriage bell, which was just as it should have been. Amongst others the star performers were Messrs F. Stacy, Pete Mulreahy, C. Van Cuylen, Boynon, J. Meeoan and Samble. Crs Davies, ex-president of Shire, Buckley, of Flinders, and a visiting Councillor from a neighbouring shire all made speeches of appreciation of Cr Downward and of his monumental work in the organization of the Race Club. Cr H. Downward suitably responded. During the evening a handsome and valuable case of cutlery etc, was presented to Mr Downward. Mr H Stacey, making the presentation with the aptest of remarks. Mr Lambie looked after the refreshments with studious care. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 25 March, 1916

Music  Arts  Food

KIM CHURCHILL AND THE BRITISH PUB GRUB By Billy Dixon MINT: I heard your track Single Spark on Triple J on the way into work this morning. How important was Triple J to your recent success? It’s aimed at a slightly younger demographic - is that who you were intentionally trying to target, or were you just seizing opportunities as they came along? KIM: To be honest I love most of what is played on Triple J. The more I travel the world, the more I realise how cool it is. Of course I’m stoked to be in amongst all that great music and was very happy that it made sense for the station and for me. I think it helped a lot in Australia... naturally. It was also inspiring for me to move into those kinds of festivals and play to larger audiences. It’s helped me push my music and push myself to make sure I cut it on those bills. M: You started playing to crowds when you were about 19 - was it intimidating playing in front of large crowds at such a young age? K: Haha, yeah! I was more like 16/17 when I really started gigging. I was always so nervous before shows! These days it’s become and bit more manageable, it’s still a huge rush though, every time! It’s wild for a job to consistently give you such a rush. I’m very lucky! M: I read that your old man bought you your first guitar when you were 4 - how on earth did you know what you wanted to do with your life from such a young age? K: I think I just always presumed that music is what I would do; I didn’t start thinking about things like “what I’d do with my life” until I was a lot older. By that time I had been playing for such a long time and really identified myself with music and guitar playing, so I just continued down that path really... M: You’ve got quite a following in Canada and have toured most of North America... and you’re in Germany now. Where do you call home these days, or do you take it with you on the road? K: Well for the last two weeks it’s been “the bottom bunk, third from the right.” Before that I had some time off and was hanging in Newcastle, NSW, before that I was recording in Toronto. Home is no more than a state of mind for me. A set of beliefs and knowledge that accompany me as everything else continue to whirl and spin in different directions. I’m

happy living in constant transition, it feels kinda homely in its own way. M: Given you’re very instrumental and acoustic, how do you feel about “deep house” and electronic remixes of your songs, like Window to the Sky? K: I love it! I mean the remixes that I have heard of Window to the Sky have been really interesting and some cool creative people have worked on them, for me it’s inspiring! I listen to a crazy amount of music across all genres; so I’m excited by anything that has been inspired by something of mine. M: Where did your inspiration for folksy music come from? Can I assume you own a

few Dylan albums? K: Haha yeah! Dylan hit me really hard. He was the first one to really introduce me to song writing as an art. More than anything though it was growing up on the Far South Coast and going to the Cobargo Folk Festival. That was my first festival experience and I went most years. I always wanted to be like those folk artists. These days I’ve moved into lots of different kinds of music but I’ve always had that soft spot for folk music. M: Finally, some pop-quiz stuff - which country has the best crowds? What about the best food?

K: Hmm... Best crowds… I will be biased and say Australia. Sure I’ve probably got sounder knowledge to draw from but we’re a good bunch and we make a great audience! If I can’t choose Australia, I’d say Quebec, Canada. Crazy bunch of very wonderful people there! Best food... I’m a sucker for English food. Bangers & Mash with minted peas in a huge Yorkshire pudding, drowned in gravy. I could eat it forever! So yeah, believe it or not I’m going for British pub grub!

A maze of connection for kids, families and local culture BUILDING on the success of their inaugural summer lantern event, Boneo Maze is hosting a school holiday program to promote well-being, relaxation and connection for families. Commencing on Good Friday with kid’s yoga and nature craft activities, the program also includes a chocolate Easter egg hunt and indigenous cultural tours. Held in the heart of the park, the kid’s yoga is aimed at children from 5 to 10 years as a fun, mind-body activity. Available every day from Good Friday until Sunday April 3rd, the yoga is being offered free of charge (park entry fee required). The craft and chocolate egg hunt will also be offered as free activities with two hunts scheduled each day for Saturday March 26th and Sunday March 27th. Visitors are advised to pre-register and reserve a place. As well as the free Easter holiday program, the kids will be

kept busy by the regular program of adventure activities including pedal boats, climbing wall, bungy trampolines and inflatable waterslides. Bookings are essential for the indigenous cultural tour, inspired and led by Gunditjamara elder, Uncle Lionel Lauch with his unique presentation of living culture. With permission from Bunwurrung elder, Aunty Carolin Briggs, Lionel will take visitors on a walk through the wetlands sharing stories and identifying bush tucker plants and their significance to Aboriginal people. The 1 hour tour commences at 10.30 am on Mar 28 & 29th at a costs of $30pp. The tour includes a didgeridoo healing meditation and visitors are free to enjoy the rest of the 27-acre park, mazes, free activities and games garden afterwards. For more information: www.boneomaze.com. au or telephone 5988 6385.

Rosebud Kite Festival flies high ANOTHER ‘cast of thousands’ turned up on Rosebud’s foreshore on Sunday 13th, to enjoy the spectacle of the annual Kite Festival, presented by the local Rosebud traders. The afternoon breeze picked up to see the full quota of maxi kites fill the sky, with professional kite flyers traveling from New Zealand, ACT and from across Victoria to display their skills and show their interesting kites. With local musicians entertaining from the stage, kids rides, face painters, stilt walkers, animal farm, reptile displays and a host of food stalls lined along the site, this family oriented festival saw smiling faces throughout the day. The Rosebud Chamber of Commerce thanks all their sponsors, in particular the financial support of the Mornington Peninsula Shire, Lamattina Fruit Growers and Bendigo Bank. Thousands of dollars was raised for local community groups on the day, including the Dromana Sea Scouts, Rosebud Scouts, Rosebud CFA, McCrae Lions, Boneo Cricket Club and the events’ nominated charity, One Voice.

Back-to-back for Panthers DISTRICT

By IT Gully PEARCEDALE won back-to-back premierships on Saturday after dominating the third and final day of the MPCA District grand final against Flinders. After beating Frankston YCW in the Sub District grand final last season, the Panthers had an almost faultless 2015-16 season and capped it off with the District flag. For the first time in the clubs’ history, Pearcedale will play in Provincial next season. The win brought down the curtain on the career of Shane Maggs, who played juniors with Pearcedale before playing higher grade cricket. He took the final wicket of the match, knocking out the stump of Flinders’ number 11 Matt Burns for a duck. He finished with 2/26 from 15.2 overs. Pearcedale went into the final day minus a bowler after Sam Frawley injured himself and failed to pass a fitness test. This left a lot of work to be done by Shayne Gillings, Kaine Smith, Chris Dew and Maggs. Without question, they were all keen to have the rock in their hands. Flinders resumed on 2/36, chasing Pearcedale’s 9/272 after Chris Dew hit and unbeaten 159 the week before. Dew also had both Flinders wickets at the start of the day. With an extremely slow scoring rate on an equally slow outfield, Flinders

Picture: Andrew Hurst

had their backs to the wall. The Sharks added just two runs in the opening seven overs of the day before there was a 56-minute rain delay. However, when play resumed at 1.43pm, it was all downhill for the Sharks at that point. Kaine Smith, who is always neat and tidy with ball in hand, picked up

the wicket of Mitch Stansborough (10) when a full toss was hit straight back to him. Tom Clements came to the crease with an intent to score, however, he edged a Gillings’ ball to second slip and left after scoring just five runs. At that stage, Flinders was in some real strife at 4/63.

Andy Power was looking strong at the other end for the Sharks and when Simon Parrott joined him at the crease, Flinders’ president Clint Munday claimed on radio RPP that this was the “key partnership” for his club and would go a long way in the team getting back into the match. However, Parrott (0) lasted less than

an over when he tried to smash a Smith full toss out of the park, only to hear the rattle of his leg stump. Flinders was gone at 5/66. When Power tried to whip a Gillings’ ball off his legs, edged and got caught behind down the leg side, Flinders was 6/70. The loss of Power brought Blake Hogan-Keogh to the crease with league legend Shane Beggs. Again, Munday told RPP listeners that he believed this was another ‘key partnership’ for his club. Munday was hoping more than anything and giving his team’s listeners some positive reinforcement. The reality was that the Panthers were all over the Sharks. The Sharks had scored almost less runs than it had faced overs and had four wickets in hand on a ground that was extremely difficult to get to the boundary. Flinders were gone. At tea Flinders was 6/74 off 66 overs. They needed 199 runs in 45 overs to win the game. After tea things didn’t get any better for Flinders. Hogan-Keogh was solid for 37 off 49 deliveries before he became Maggs’ first victim, Beggs made 12 before chopping one on off Gillings. Dwayne Field was run out for eight and Burns went for a duck. Within a blink of an eye, Flinders weres bowled out for 136. Gillings finished with 3/39 off 23 overs, Smith snared 2/23 off 19, Maggs took 2/26 and Chris Dew finished with 2/41 off 23 overs.

Buds are champions in 2016 SUB-DISTRICT

By IT Gully ROSEBUD will play in MPCA District ranks next season after winning the Sub District premiership against Frankston YCW on Saturday. The Buds had to withstand a strong fightback from the Stonecats on the third and final day of the match to claim victory. It was one of the best of all time

in Rosebud star Jason Nagel who contributed most significantly to the win for Rosebud. While rumours circulated on radio RPP about Jason Nagel’s cricketing future, he was going about winning a flag for his beloved Rosebud Cricket Club. Nagel bowled an amazing 38 overs, had 15 maidens and finished with match winning figures of 6/60. He bowled in tandem mostly with

his son at the other end, Patrick bowling 27 overs, while Brian Doughty took 1/32 from his 14 overs and Billy Quigley snared 2/17 off seven overs. Most attendees on Saturday were expecting to see four quick wickets and the premiership heading down the southern peninsula. Frankston YCW went into the third day trying not to lose two grand finals in as many seasons.

The Stonecats resumed at 6/66 with the evergreen Matty Lane at the crease with Matt Black. The couple completed the first task and that was to try and get their side to tea without loss. At tea, YCW was 6/100. Lane and Black got the score to 116 before Nagel had Black trapped leg before for 13. This brought skipper Andrew Kitson to the crease. It’s also when the game became very interesting.

Sudoku and crossword solutions

Lane and Kitson took the score to 140 before Lane became Nagel’s fifth victim for 58. It was more hope than anything else at that point for the Stonecats. Rosebud took the new ball when YCW had reached 8/152. Craig Burch added six runs before he was given leg before off the bowling of Brian Doughty and Kitson (43) had hits stumps rattled by Nagel to hand the Buds the premiership.

WESTERN PORT scoreboard

Easter footy to launch new season FOOTBALL By Toe Punt THE Mornington Peninsula Nepean Football League season kicks-off this Easter weekend with five matches being played across two divisions. The match with the biggest hype will be played at the home of peninsula football, Frankston Park, when Frankston Bombers tackle Pearcedale on Good Friday. Fresh from winning ‘Celebrity get me out of here”, former Carlton and Brisbane Lion full forward Brendan Fevola will be lining up for the Bombers. Frankston Bombers have invested enormously into the Fevola appearance and drawing a big crowd. For the Bombers’ sake, let’s hope a big crowd get down to Frankston Park on Good Friday. Outside of Fevola, the Bombers have recruited extremely well in the off season. Ryan Marks-Logan, who played a number of games for the Bombers last season, has committed for the season, as has Dale Sutton, who is also a Frankston boy. Jarryd Amalfi has crossed from Langwarrin and will slot into a half back role, while Sam Fox and Ryan Kitchen are two big recruits for the Bombers. Kitchen is the ruckman the Bombers have been looking, especially with James Orr leaving the club. The Bombers have an outstanding draw in 2016 and should be expecting to play finals. Their opponent on Good Friday is Pearcedale. The Panthers have picked up Travis Bravo and Robbie Muir from Somerville, while Troy Jacobson and Alex Harnett return from Frankston Dolphins.

Basil Sibosado is the most significant loss for the Panthers, while Andrew Knight and Brendan Neville are also no longer at the club. The Panthers will be relying on another improved year from its youngsters, especially under the guidance of new assistant coach Chris Irving. Down the Peninsula, also on Good Friday, Rosebud will unfurl its flag against old foe Rye. There is a bit to prove from both sides this season. The Buds will be expected to back up from its premiership win last season and challenge again. Rye was the big disappointment last season and will be keen to avenge not playing finals. Rosebud has picked up former Seaford star Michael Kraska as coach, who has been playing bush footy for the past couple of seasons. He is yet to play a practice match and missed most of December-January through overseas travel. It’s not the ideal preparation. The Buds were banking on ‘Kras’ bringing a couple of recruits with him, however, none followed. The question for Rosebud is how do they cover their losses? The dominant forward of the competition last season in Tom Baker is at Casey, while fellow forward players in Lachy Armstrong (retired) and Cade Williams (Dromana) will not be in the front six either. Arguably two of the best five midfielders in the comp last season is Jason Bristow and Rob Forrest have left and the tough Paul McDonald has hung them up. Expect the Buds to miss the finals all together this season.

Rye needs to play finals. James Appleford returns from Frankston Dolphins. Matt Greig and Craig Christie come from the EFL, Steve Downes returns after stints at Dromana and in the EFL and there’s a handful of blokes they have picked up from South Mornington. Andrew Dean (Tooradin), Jye Lloyd (Casey) and Rhett Sutton are big outs, while Matt Goodman has also left. On Easter Saturday, Dromana will play host to Sorrento. The messiah of Dromana, Rikki Johnston, has returned to the Tigers as coach. The result of this great move by the Tigers has seen a number of recruits join the club, while others have returned. After a long battle with illness, Adam Hunter has been given the all clear from doctors, completed a full pre-season and will line up in this match and is ready for a big season. Aaron Hunter, Michael Gillis and Jay Hutchison have returned, Cade Williams is back from Rosebud, while Rory Gregg (ruckman from Chelsea), Beau Cosson (VCFL key forward from Ararat) and Mitch Gill-Furness (defender from Langwarrin) have signed with the club and will all be very good players. Braden Hyde has also signed with the club. Sorrento has had some mixed fortunes. New Sorrento coach and reigning premiership coach Nick Jewell was keeping things is perspective when it comes to the upcoming season. “We’ve lost some very good players and we’ve picked up some very good players. I think people focus sometimes on the signings and forget about those who you have lost,” Jewell said last year.

Those losses include four team of the year players in Jon Croad, Leigh Poholke, Daniel Grant and Troy Schwarze. These four players would walk straight into any club in Australia. Add the emerging Brodie Webb and Chris Morgan, along with key premiership forward Ryan Jeffrey and there’s a big hole. A key recruit was Rob Forrest from Rosebud, however, he requires a full knee reconstruction after injury in a practice match two weeks ago. On the up, however, is key forward Nick Corp, who is a gun, Doug Scott returns from Barwon, Scott Lockwood and Jack Egan cross from Mt Eliza, Dalton Sanderson is back from QLD, Daniel Hickey is back from Rosebud and Kayle Stringer-Morris returns. Somerville and Tyabb also go toe to toe on Easter Saturday. The Eagles’ big recruit is Ben Crowe, who will straighten them up. Michael Towan and Adam Rose also return to the Eagles – they are all one point players. More importantly, the Eagles haven’t lost anyone. They will start the season as flag favorites. Tyabb has done a load of work in the off season under new coach Mark Paganoni. Former skipper Ethan Rahilly has returned with brother Simon, Rowan McGrath has gone back, while they have picked up many players from around the traps. Justin Volk is the noticeable out, crossing to Devon Meadows. The Yabbies will be more competitive, no question. Peninsula League Bonbeach and Edithvale-Aspendale

will launch the MPNFL Peninsula Division season. Unfortunately, once again, all of the interest in this competition is who will finish second to 10th. Frankston YCW has been able to retain all of its list and the big talk is that Lachy Wallace and Anthony Barry will play early rounds for the Stonecats due to interrupted pre-seasons with Collingwood and Western Bulldogs VFL teams respectively. The Stonecats were head and shoulders above everyone else last season and will be again. Bonbeach lost a lot of players between the 2014 and 2015 seasons but many have returned – none bigger than Shane McDonald, who will make an enormous difference. Robbie Lancaster and Michael Turville return while Ash Waterstone comes across to play with his brother from Dromana. Nathan Robinson is the notable out for the Sharks. Edithvale, who took part in finals last season, will slide in a big way. The outs are horrific – Adam Budge, Matthew Clark, Jordy Derbyshire, Jarrod Garth, Tim Mavric, Brett O’Hanlon, Brad Tagg and youngsters Darcy Holden and Brody Lawford – that’s half of your starting 18 and the majority with star quality. Giant ruckman Chris Wylie comes on board from Wonthaggi, Brendan Neville crosses from Pearcedale, Jeremy Heys and Andrew Luxa return from East Brighton, Joel Sullivan crosses from Dolphins, Brad Langenberg from Chelsea and Elliott Macquire from Old Mentonians.

Between Calamity and her mother Lexie they won eight events that year. 2015 was not exception, with Calamity (pictured here) taking out yet another class.

Calamity, Lexie and half-sister Jada will all be competing at Red Hill on Easter Saturday.

The Gypsy Cobs are smaller in FRPSDULVRQ EXW WKHLU ÀDVK\ IHDWKHUV HOHJDQW PDQHV DQG tails make them a true family favourite. Kids will love these enchanting, romantic creatures.
