For all advertising and editorial, call 03 5974 9000 or email: team@mpnews.com.au www.mpnews.com.au THERE was a lot of energy and wheely good fun on Friday at Hastings Primary School, which hosted the Hubert Opperman Bicycle Education competition. The event, which involved students from four schools from the surrounding area, was coordinated by Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and Road Safe South East. A bicycle skills competition, the event is aimed at grades five and six students and encourages them to show their bicycle skills and compete against other schools in a friendly environment. The council’s bike ed coordinator Claire Davey said she was working on rebuilding the bike education programs after the pandemic. “It’s such a fun program, but COVID put a dent in it so we are talking to schools and building it up again,” she said. On Friday at Hastings, students completed a range of challenges, with the education focus on safe riding behaviours, road rules and riding in a shared environment. The Sir Hubert Opperman Bicycle Education Competition has been run on the peninsula for more than 20 years. Events are held in Rosebud, Mornington and Hastings and are open to primary schools from across the peninsula. Opperman is recognised as being one of Australia’s greatest sports stars. Davey said the event was supported by volunteer organisations, including sailors from HMAS Cerberus who judged the events, Hastings Rotary Club which ran the sausage sizzle and Westernport Bicycle Centre, which provided a maintenance workshop activity.

Budget cuts end travel plans Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au PLANS to improve Mornington Peninsula road and rail services came to a sudden halt last week with the federal government announcing cuts of more than $300 million from infrastructure projects. The move means the cancellation of both the Jetty Road, Rosebud overpass and the electrification of the train service from Frankston to Baxter. The $225 million promised by the previous Coalition government to duplicating and electrifying the line to Baxter came nowhere near to the estimated $1.5 billion needed. Infrastructure Minister Catherine
King said the federal government said the infrastructure cuts included “projects that were not realistically going to be delivered with the funding available … [or] that do not align with Commonwealth or state and territory priorities”. However, $57.5 million will stay in the budget to upgrade the Western Port Highway along with $43.5 million for commuter car park upgrades on the Frankston line. The recommendation to drop the peninsula’s rail and road projects followed a review into uncompleted infrastructure projects ordered by the Labor federal government. “The independent strategic review found that the Infrastructure Invest-
ment Program inherited from the former Coalition government was undeliverable,” King said. Quick to voice concerns over the fate of the projects were Flinders MP Zoe McKenzie, Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Cr Steve Holland and CEO of the Committee for Frankston and Mornington Peninsula. McKenzie said it was a disgrace and an insult to residents that the peninsula had “again been neglected by Labor”. “The most called for road upgrade on the Mornington Peninsula is the Jetty Road overpass, and this completely out of touch government has cancelled the project and cut the funding,” McKenzie said.

Cutting off the rail money was a “visionless stunt and an embarrassing about face” by the Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Dunkley MP Peta Murphy who had both backed the rail extension before being elected to government. Holland said the “withdrawal of $300 million set aside” to extend the rail line to Baxter (“a vital first step towards extending the metropolitan train service all the way to Hastings”) and upgrade the Mornington Peninsula Freeway, was “deeply unfair and incredibly disappointing”. He said both commitments had been “dependent on matching funds from the Victorian government”. “At the very least, I call on the fed-
eral government to ensure this funding stays on the Mornington Peninsula and is spent on other projects,” Holland said. Sinclair said the Committee for Frankston and Mornington Peninsula was disappointed with the cuts, and would “be seeking clarification from the government about where they do plan to invest in critical infrastructure in our region over coming years”. “At a time when the state government has allocated nearly $30 million in this year’s state budget for the Port of Hastings and its plans for a renewable energy terminal, improving public transport and the rail line between Frankston and Hastings has never been more crucial,” he said.

Beach patrols to protect plovers
VISITORS are being urged to look out for hooded plovers nesting along Mornington Peninsula shorelines and help the birds by giving them plenty of space and keeping dogs away from breeding areas. Now in its third season, the Conservation Regulator’s Operation Save our Hoodies (SoHo), run in partnership with Parks Victoria and Birdlife Australia, is helping protect the threatened beachnesting birds during their breeding season. Hooded plovers lay eggs in shallow sand scrapes and raise their chicks on beaches between August and March. The birds face threats from people trampling nests or scaring them into abandoning their eggs, and from dogs not under control that chase, catch, and kill vulnerable chicks. Birdlife Australia data shows that just 25 percent of 764 eggs recorded along Victoria’s coastline in the 2022-23 season hatched because of human impacts, predators, and harsh environmental factors. Only 43 chicks survived to become juveniles. Conservation Regulator and Parks Victoria of-
ficers are patrolling peninsula beaches, including those between Gunnamatta and Portsea to protect the birds while they are breeding and to give the species their best chance over summer as they face risks from increased beach use. The patrols will be made on weekends and weekdays. Last breeding season 83 people were fined for such offences as disturbing birds and dog owners not complying with rules near hooded plover habitat. “Our coastal patrols over the next few months will focus on protecting this important threatened species and educating beachgoers about how their small actions have big impacts on the survival and growth of native hooded plover populations,” Conservation Regulator forest and wildlife officer Lucille Watterson said. Birdlife Australia volunteers are monitoring hooded plovers and helping the protection efforts by raising public awareness of the species, installing signs and fencing-off nesting sites. “Our amazing ocean beaches are habitat to unique wildlife, and the survival of species like
the hooded plover relies on every beach user to share the beach with the birds and give them a chance at successfully raising a family. Most people are happy to give Hoodies some space once they are aware, but the few people who ignore the rules can jeopardise this,” BirdLife Australia’s coastal and wetland birds program leader Dr Grainne Maguire said. Members of the public are being encouraged to keep their distance and report any sightings of hooded plovers nesting in unmarked areas to BirdLife Australia on 9347 0757 or at beachnestingbirds@birdlife.org.au. Hooded plovers are protected under the Wildlife Act 1975, and it is illegal to disturb, injure or destroy them; damage their habitat; or interfere with warning signage, with maximum penalties ranging between $3846 and $46,154. Dog owners can be fined up to $4807 if their dog attacks wildlife. The Conservation Regulator investigates reports of habitat destruction and dogs harassing hooded plovers. Reports can be made to Crime Stoppers Victoria on 1800 333 000. Keith Platt

Permits needed to avoid paid parking MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire Council is reminding residents they will not have to pay for parking at foreshore car parks during summer’s paid parking trial. Visitors to foreshore car parks at Schnapper Point, Mornington Sunnyside Beach, Mount Eliza and Flinders pier will have to pay for parking as part of a trail. If judged successful by the shire, permanent paid parking will be introduced at other foreshore car parks. The council has said the trial is an opportunity to more fairly distribute the cost of maintaining the sites, but residents will need to apply for an e-permit to ensure their vehicles can be recognised by the camera technology. Local business staff and volunteer e-permits are also available to minimise impact on business owners and their staff and to support community events on the foreshores. Residents of Mornington, Mount Eliza and Flinders can apply now for permits at mornpen.vic.gov.au/epermits. All other peninsula residents can apply from Wednesday 22 November. Residents will need to provide proof of residency and vehicle registrations. Free community support sessions well be held in Flinders today (21 November) from 9am – 5pm at the Flinders Fire Station in Barker Street, and tomorrow (22 November) from 9am to 5pm at the Mornington Library in Vancouver Street. The mayor Cr Steve Holland said residents need only apply for an e-permit if they intended to park at one of the three locations. “While residents are exempt from paying, everyone is required to follow the parking time limits that apply,” he said.

Going, going: National Trust Mornington Peninsula branch president Victor Sullivan with a few of the many artworks to be auction on 3 December. Picture: Yanni
Trust auctions donated art THE National Trust’s Mornington Peninsula branch is holding an auction on Sunday 3 December of paintings, drawings and prints donated by branch members and friends. Branch president Victor Sullivan said a chance remark during a gathering of members inspired the “unique fundraising idea”. “Conversation between colleagues drifted to the topic of what happens after downsizing when people retain some or even all of their much-loved art collections, but do not have wall space to hang items,” he said. “An appeal to members and friends has been hugely successful and we have gathered excellent examples of
art for the auction.” He said the branch, formed in 1985, “works tirelessly to raise funds to support the ongoing restoration and conservation of its heritage properties and collections”. The National Trust has four properties in the region – McCrae Homestead (1843), The Briars Homestead at Mount Martha (1854), Mulberry Hill at Langwarrin South (1880 and Desbrowe Annear’s 1926 extension) and Endeavour Fern Gully at Red Hill (a remnant of indigenous bush that reopened to the public in 2011). Artwork to be auctioned will include pastoral scenery, environmental influences, and contemporary and old
master interpretations in oils, acrylics and pencil. “Something for everyone’s taste,” Sullivan said. “There will also be a small range of art books and historical journals on sale (not auctioned) and a door prize of a pure silk Moet & Chandon women’s shoulder scarf in its original box.” The National Trust Mornington Peninsula branch Pre-loved Art Auction, Sunday 3 December, Peninsula Community Theatre, 91 Wilsons Road, Mornington. Works will be on display from 11am for the auction at 2.30pm. Details from secretary Judy Walsh on 0407 099 855 or email jwa45664@ gmail.com
Adventurous life goes on at 100 ZETA Newbound, who recently celebrated her 100th birthday, lives independently, drives her manual car, attends events and participates in discussions regarding current topics. The president of Flinders Probus Cub, Rose White, said the club had organised a surprise This is your Life Power Point presentation and a birthday lunch for Newbound following a monthly meeting at Flinders Yacht Club. “Eighty five of us kept the secret and Zeta was amazed,” White said. The presentation traced Newbound’s life from her 7 October birth 1923 in Lewisham, England, where Australian parents were working. Her mother Meta was a professional violinist and her father, Arthur, was a dental technician. One year later the family moved to Canada, living in Toronto for 10 years. As an 11-year-old Newbound was brought to Australia and her first view of the sea at Bondi, where a neighbour taught her to surf. This was followed by two years at St Kilda, attending Elwood Central School before going on to MacRobertson Girls High School. After gaining her primary teaching qualification at Melbourne Teachers’ College, Newbound’s first position was at Toorak Central School where she taught all subjects (including Latin) at all levels. She later attended Melbourne University and gained a diploma in physical education. Under the heading adventures, Newbound was shown to be independent and adventurous, teaching physical education in Japan in 1950 to children of the British Commonwealth Occupation Forces. During holidays she travelled around Japan with author Hal Porter, reassuring her family that she was safe as he was gay. ON returning to Australia she obtained a Japanese Language degree from RMIT. She first met her husband to be, Max Newbound, at a workshop during her teacher train-

He served in the Royal Australian Navy during World War II while Zeta trained as a warden and continued teaching. They again met at a conference and, following a whirlwind courtship, married in 1952 at St Kilda Methodist Church. Her Uncle was the minister, and the ceremony was held without photos or reception, but a honeymoon at the Flinders Hotel. They lived in Hampton and their family soon included daughter, Peta and son, Michael. The couple bought a holiday house in Shoreham in 1959 and then built a house at Flinders in 1985. Max Newbound died in 1992, aged 67. Zeta Newbound was on the committee and
pennant captain at Flinders Golf Club, a member of Somers Probus and is now a member of Flinders Probus, Flinders Community Association, Flinders District Historical Society and the exercise group. Max and Zeta Newbound travelled overseas and went caravanning around Australia together. After his death she continued to spend winters in Queensland, driving her campervan alone. Some of Zeta Newbound’s thoughts: Washing machines are “he best invention”; burnt orange is her favourite colour and “dark chocolate and white wine” among her favourite things ; however, she gets “really disappointed with the way we are messing up the world.

ings and Rosebud, involving vehicle safety checks, licensing, load restraint compliance and impaired driving. Senior Constable Perkins said drivers were drug and alcohol tested, and visual safety inspections were carried out on all vehicles. Of the offences, three were for drug driving, 25 were for defects issued or unroadworthy vehicles, and one was for unlicensed driving. Other offences included excessive speed (1); not wearing seat belts (5); work diary breaches. (9); fatigue (1); insecure load( 10); mass overload (1); and unregistered vehicles (2). SIXTY-five truckies were intercepted on Peninsula Link and around the Mornington Peninsula on Monday (13 November) and 58 driving offences recorded in a crackdown on heavy vehicle driver behaviour. Operation Hauler involved the Somerville Highway Patrol, Victoria Police heavy vehicle unit and the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator between Carrum Downs, Hastings and Rosebud and surrounding industrial estates. Senior Constable Travis Perkins from Mornington police said the peninsula had seen an increase in heavy vehicle collisions causing road trauma. This year has recorded the highest quarterly collisions involving collisions with heavy vehicles in the past five years. Already this year there have been eight serious injury collisions and one fatality involving heavy vehicles, a 166.7 per cent increase on the three reported collisions for 2022.

POLICE numbers will still be bolstered on the Mornington Peninsula for up to four weeks during schoolies celebrations, despite crowds expected to be down this year. But with public drunkenness no longer being a criminal offence in Victoria and police now having to arrange safe options for drunken revellers, could be plenty to keep them busy. Superintendent Fiona Bock, above right, said all indications were that the peninsula would not be the top choice for school leavers this year, with many headed interstate or overseas. “But we will still have a strong police presence because our aim is to allow school leavers to enjoy their end of school celebrations safely and to keep the community is safe,” she said. “We liaise with other agencies, accommodation providers, road data and anecdotal data to work out our resources, and we may modify things as needed.” Bock said the lack of a sobering up centre on

the peninsula meant police would be required to transport people safely home and would work with volunteer groups such as Red Frogs youth charity and Rotary, or in some cases liaise with Ambulance Victoria. “We are prepared and have the resources to deal with it,” she said. Bock said police were also calling on the community to take notice of large gatherings of people “impacting” those around them and call 000 if necessary. “We want young people to heed the message ‘look after your mates’ and look after each other, and we want the community to feel comfortable for police help if they see behaviour that is escalating or having an impact on others,” she said. “We have been talking to young people in schools, licensed and entertainment venues months in advance to make sure that everyone knows their obligations and that young people are not vulnerable.” Rye is still expected to be the busiest schoolies location on the peninsula, but other popular entertainment precincts such as Sorrento and Mornington will be closely monitored. “We’ll also have a police presence on arterial roads and main roads,” Bock said. “It’s about public safety, and young people being able to have a good time without taking risks.” Schoolies in Victoria officially runs from 18 November to 10 December.

Garden ‘open’ for first time THE Mount Martha property Creeting Lodge, designed in 1926 by Melbourne architect Marcus Martin, will open for the first time with Open Gardens Victoria on Saturday and Sunday 25 and 26 November. Named after a village in Suffolk, United Kingdom, the garden of Creeting Lodge was created in collaboration with the award-winning team at Myles Baldwin Design and blends European and Mediterranean plants. “As the gates open, you are greeted by a regal guard of towering golden cypress pines, standing tall and proud for over 150 years,” owner Paul Bonnici said. “Heritage meets botany in the most divine way, with the original inhabitants of the garden, including red flowering gums, lilly pilly, and a splendid strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo), pro-
viding living memories of a bygone era.” The new garden presents a space where trees such as hornbeams, magnolia “Teddy Bear”, crepe myrtles, forest pansies, and mature olives are surrounded by lawn. There is also a selection of palms—the European fan (Chamaerops humilis), Chinese windmill (Trachycarpus fortunei), silver date (Phoenix silvestrus), and the dragon tree (Dracaena draco) - along with anthuriums, salvia, French and oak leaf hydrangea, various species of viburnums and English box balls. Creeting Lodge, 533 Esplanade, Mount Martha, 10am - 4.30pm Saturday 25 November and Sunday 26 November. Adults $10, students $6, under-18 free. Tickets at the gate or via TryBooking opengardensvictoria.org.au/CreetingLodge

THE FRONT BAR
SEVEN, 8.30pm
Whether you’re an AFL addict, spend your summer obsessing over cricket, or don’t really align yourself with any sport, we can all agree that the jocular, chatty chemistry on this panel show kicks goals. Hosts Andy Maher (the reliable straight man), Sam Pang (he’s all cheeky, deadpan wit) and Mick Molloy (he’s a big kid at heart, all pictured, left) love the AFL and have finessed their pub-style, laid-back banter that scores big belly laughs. In this special, the sports tragics take a gander at this year’s sporting highs and lows.
SATURDAY
ALL CREATURES GREAT AND SMALL
ABC TV, 7.30pm
There’s a lot to love about this wholesome British series based on vet James Herriot’s memoirs about country life. In this third season, premiering tonight, there’s a touch of sombreness as WWII looms on the horizon, but there’s still the call of the wild – and the pub – keeping the show’s soothing and cosy tone. Tonight, James (Nicholas Ralph, pictured, right) and Helen’s (Rachel Shenton) long-awaited wedding day arrives. Of course, there’s complications and a boozy bachelor party before the couple say “I do”.
FRIDAY
NICK KNOWLES INTO THE GRAND CANYON
SBS, 8.30pm
You’ve got to hand it to Nick Knowles (pictured, right): the English presenter really knows how to match his attire to his location. In this action-packed adventure through the millenia-old rock formation, Knowles braves a zipline on the South Rim, helps restore the endangered condor population and explores the breathtaking caves. While filming: he became wedged in one of the narrow caves and had to be rescued.

In the early 2000s, this homegrown version of the Dutch reality TV juggernaut hooked the nation. Then hosted by the biting, comically deadpan Gretel Killeen, along with mischievous narration from comedian Mike Goldman, the innocent housemates were unburdened by an awareness of how well the hidden cameras captured their every move and remark; it was a compelling, cheeky peek into the minds and motivations of 20-somethings. In this 16th season, the housemates know the game inside-out. Host Sonia Kruger (pictured top left) looks stylish, but there’s otherwise little pizazz, with the romance-heavy matters easily mistaken for Love Island Australia.

No environmental benefit in brown coal to hydrogen It is pleasing to see that the state government may be finally coming to its sense with regard to the shipping hydrogen to Japan (“MPs under pressure over hydrogen” The News 14/11/23). While shipping the clean fuel hydrogen to Japan seemed like a sensible idea, it was always flawed because of the way the hydrogen was to be made. Had the hydrogen been produce through the electrolysis of water powered by renewable energy then the idea had merit. However, the method chosen, converting brown coal to hydrogen was always flawed for the reasons outlined in the article by Keith Platt. Converting coal to hydrogen still produces carbon dioxide, so there is no benefit to the environment and the proposal optimistically relies on carbon capture and storage (CCS), a technology that has not worked commercially anywhere in the world. This is a project driven by a government subservient to the fossil fuel industry and by Japanese businesses that could see a government blinded by the fact that Japan got all the benefit of a clean burning fuel and leaving all the waste in Victoria. Dr Ross Hudson, Mount Martha
Damaging hydrogen Credit to The News for keeping the community updated on the environmentally damaging Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain (HESC) project, which aims to convert brown coal from AGL’s Loy Yang mine into hydrogen, store the CO2 produced under Bass Strait, and liquefy and ship the hydrogen to Japan (“MPs under pressure over hydrogen” 14/11/23). Apart from maintaining the dirty coal industry and risking damage and pollution of an internationally recognised Ramsar wetland, it is well known that carbon capture and storage (CCS) is an expensive and unreliable technology. A recent investigation into 13 existing CCS projects by the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis found that the majority (10) either underperformed, failed, or were mothballed. The only type of hydrogen we should be making is green hydrogen using renewable energy. No CCS is required. Ray Peck, Hawthorn
Abandon hydrogen The brown coal to hydrogen project is a bit of a fiasco (“MPs under pressure over hydrogen” The News 14/11/23). The entire project hinged on its ability to capture and store carbon dioxide emissions underground (CCS), a feat not able to be achieved commercially anywhere else in the world. We have had assurances that if this condition cannot be met, the project will not proceed. They’ve had a lot of time to find out, and multiple millions of dollars, so how about a report to the public, now? The trouble is you can’t believe politicians. Listen to them, but don’t trust them. If the project should continue with even limited CCS it would make a complete joke of the Victorian government’s initiative to refuse to al-
low gas appliances in future new houses, which is silly enough already. Ultimately, hydrogen as an automotive fuel is an impractical joke. The distribution, retailing and dispensing of the stuff is difficult, dangerous, and not commercially feasible. Countries like Norway, with an over abundance of free hydro-electric power and a small population, already produce it cleanly by electrically splitting the water molecule. Finally, think of the other ramifications if CCS became feasible. Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington
Hydrogen ‘madness’ Thanks for exposing the absurd plans to produce more brown hydrogen for the Japanese market (“MPs under pressure over hydrogen” The News 14/11/23). As Keith Platt explains, brown hydrogen comes from brown coal, the most polluting and toxic of all fossil fuels. Producing brown hydrogen contradicts the state government’s excellent emissions reductions targets, and potentially derails plans to build wind farm infrastructure at Hastings. Green hydrogen made using renewable energy may make sense, but brown hydrogen made from dirty brown coal is madness. Amy Hiller, Kew
Councillors lost Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors have lost their way in managing the objectives and strategies. The reason local councils were created and introduced, in simplistic terms, is the 3Rs, roads, rubbish, rates. The rubbish left on our beach front areas from Safety Beach to Portsea is a disgrace. Whether left by locals or visitors the lack of bins and the collection leaves a lot to be desired. My wife and I are, like many residents, becoming tired of picking up paper, broken bottles and cans and then trying to find a bin to dispose of the rubbish. The condition of many roads in the shire still require maintenance, coupled with potholes on heavy traffic roads needing complete repair. Indeed, residents continue to write to The News asking for action. Bruce White, Safety Beach
Vegetation too high VicRoads should plant low growing grasses and bushes near roundabouts. I have sent messages to VicRoads about the shrubbery that’s there now blocking the view of drivers. Some examples are the Boneo Road and Peninsula Link extension at Rosebud and the Moorooduc Road/Peninsula Link underpass. Warwick Spinaze, Tootgarook
Nos not puppets No voters [in the Voice to Parliament referendum] saw through the blatant way that the
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese continued to harangue and demonise any person or persons who did not follow his wanting (“No was not enough” Letters 14/11/23). We are not all puppets of the Labor Party and can think for ourselves. The majority of people were the ones with commonsense. Bill Phillips, Capel Sound
‘Outsider’s’ opinion I do enjoy visiting the Mornington Peninsula regularly and have on occasions been bold enough to offer some thoughts in the letters section of The News despite being occasionally labelled an “outsider” by some of more parochial bent. In the recent referendum lead-up I was initially encouraged that The News appeared to provide an open forum for views from both sides of the debate. That is until it became evident the polls were swinging in favour of those intending to vote No. In the final weeks it became quite apparent that The News then had one finger on the scales and found it impossible to include contribution other than that prosecuting the Yes case. My sole motivation [for now rteading The News] is to see whether in any of [the] ritual rants about matters conservative [by a regular letter writer] will ever find an opportunity to raise a sensible argument not obviously bred in the swamp of ideology. John Matthews, Heathmont Editor: Contrary to the claims by John Matthews, all No letters received by The News were published. There was a marked drop off in the number of No letters received in the final weeks leading up to the referendum.
Car show success I would like to warmly congratulate Sorrento Rotary Club for its successful car display recently at Pt Nepean National Park, Portsea. The first-ever Pt Nepean Motor Show in 2022 was a massive triumph, with more than 400 exhibitors and more than 2000 visitors and 16 sponsors generously providing support. Money raised during the event went towards Southern Peninsula Community Support, a charity that assists homeless individuals on the peninsula. This year’s event had a wider selection of food vans and radio station RPP-FM broadcasting, with local musicians entertaining the crowd. The event was fortunate enough to have a rare 1937 Mercedes Benz 540K worth $13 million on display from the Fox Classic Car Museum, which generated a lot of interest. The new glamping tents, which were mostly used by backpackers, have now been completed. However, families already enjoyed the serene atmosphere full kitchen and bathroom facilities. The peaceful area and campers are responsible enough to clean their space. There is a shuttle bus that runs regularly to take visitors around the area. Bike hire is available, and with most of the area being flat, it is perfect for families. Some were riding, and their bells let pedestrians know they were coming through. There were category prizes, but the camaraderie and enjoying another pleasing display of classic and historic cars and bikes were the highlights of the event. Anne Kruger, Rye
Spaced out The idea of subdividing suburban blocks to accommodate more housing was fine in theory. But the current generation of home owners comes with bloated 4WDs, utilities, boats, caravans and working from home machinery too big even for double garages. In kerb-less Old Tyabb streets, families with boats and caravans have always contained such large items within their properties. Subdivide those blocks and where does all that lifestyle and work gear go? On nature strips, roadsides, reserves or, should there be regulated motivation for them to be held in commercial storage yards? When designing the future, planners should recognise space is diminishing for today’s upsized vehicles, not only in shopping centre car parks and school pick up zones but also at home. Councils are approving building footprints without maintenance, recreational or work space. Back to the drawing board - if there’s room for one in the home office. Frances Henke, Hastings
Heartbreak tag Heartbreaking to see the beautiful mural on the IGA building in Salmon Street, Hastings has been vandalised by some idiot hero graffiti artist It’s as if Hastings doesn’t deserve to have something nice for everyone to enjoy Ted Keam, Balnarring
Echoes of the Voice Cr David Gill said work done by Mornington Peninsula Shire CEO John Baker showed “that there is some, not an understanding I suppose, but some leaning towards what we are suggesting or what I am putting up for us to consider” (“Indigenous names sought for the shire’s 11 new wards” The News 7/11/23). Is this an underhand slap in the face? Of course, Cr Susan Bissinger thought council was going “totally down the wrong track” and would not support approaching the Bunurong Land Council “without having the full support of the community behind me”. Are they hoping that the issue will go the way of the Voice to Parliament referendum? Are these not the same people who would not take a stand on the Voice? And then there are those who are living on the planet Ork, who think: “As far as I am concerned, we are one, and not black and white.” Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach
Correction flagged A LETTER from Monica Martini, of Mornington (“Homeless, not flags” The News 14/11/21) stated that a flag being flown at Mornington Peninsula Shire Council offices included coloured stripes which “represent MAPS, which is minor-attracted people, which I believe means pedophiles”. Martini has since told The News that she had “made a mistake there, the purple circle in yellow triangle represents intersex, which is ambiguous really, and I took it to include MAPS”. Her request for the incorrect statement to be not published was made after printing.
Peninsula may be dropped from kangaroo ‘harvest’ WILDLIFE groups have welcomed a proposal to remove kangaroos on the Mornington Peninsula from the commercial kangaroo harvest scheme. If adopted, the changes will come into effect in 2025 and last until 2028. However, property owners will still be able to apply for permit to “control wildlife”. Public comments can be made about the Victorian Kangaroo Harvest Management Plan 2024-2028 until Monday 4 December. The Save Kangaroos on the Mornington Peninsula (SKOMP) group hailed the peninsula kangaroo’s removal from the plan as “great news”. Kangaroos are the peninsula currently included in the Gippsland harvesting zone, which wildlife advocates say distorts the actual number of kangaroos in the area.
SKOMP spokesperson Craig Thomson said the group wanted the change to be adopted from 2024 and for an end to lethal measures provided in the Authority to Control Wildlife permit system. Thomson said SKOMP was grateful for the support of the community over the past four years in opposing the harvesting of kangaroos and for taking “a strong position” in fighting for the removal of peninsula kangaroos from the scheme. “There is no doubt to us at SKOMP that the current proposed exclusion of the peninsula from the Gippsland harvest zone wouldn't have happened without your support, so again thank you,” he said. The Victorian Commercial Kangaroo Harvest Program is the world's largest legal commercial slaughter of wildlife.
It permits eastern grey and western grey kangaroos to be killed on private land and on specified areas of public land. The new “exclusion zone” where kangaroos cannot be commercially harvested has been extended to include central Melbourne, outer suburbs and urban growth corridors, the Mornington Peninsula, the Dandenongs, and the western grasslands. The plan is administered by the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action, which states that its aim is to ensure that commercial kangaroo harvesting in ecologically sustainable and conducted “according to animal welfare standards”.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Shooting Affray – Two police wounded Compiled by Cameron McCullough EARLY on Sunday morning last while putting a prisoner into the cell at the watch-house, on a charge of drunkenness, Senior–Constable Culhane and Constable Graham were wounded, the result of revolver shots. From details to hand, it appears that the two officers mentioned had arrested a man named Hannah, a former policeman, lately stationed at Brighton, on a charge of drunkenness, and while locking him up a shot rang out. Constable Graham fell to the ground. Senior-Constable Culhane, who was turning out the light, rushed to the assistance of his fellow officer, when another shot was fired, striking the senior constable in the back of the left shoulder and lodging in the neck. Hannah, in the meantime escaped, but was arrested at about 5am. by Constable Nicholls, of Mordialloc, on Mordialloc bridge, and was taken to the Mordialloc police station, and questioned as to his movements, being finally charged on two counts of shooting with intent to murder. Senior–Constable Culhane, who was the more seriously wounded, was taken to Dr. Maxwell’s private hospital, where an operation was performed yesterday by Drs. Maxwell and Le Soeuf, and the bullet extracted. This morning’s latest report is that he is progressing very favorably. Constable Graham escaped with a grazed collar-bone, and was able to resume duty. He attributes his good fortune to the fact that the overcoat which he was wearing at the time of the incident, was thickly padded on the shoulder,
thereby preventing the bullet from penetrating. Hannah appeared before the City court on Monday last, and was remanded until the 25th, bail being refused. *** A BRIGHT little lad Porter, employed at the Chelsea station, considers himself quite the hero of the moment. Last Saturday Neil Nicholson, the porter referred to, rose at 4.30am in order to go on duty at 6am, starting early in order that he might get off at 1pm, and travel to Northcote to see his mother. He did so, and, returning at night, tired out with his long day, he unfortunately fell asleep and was carried on to Frankston. He there found three fellow passengers who had slept too soundly. They phoned for a car, and motored back to Carrum. They reached “Chelsea.House”, where Neil boards. Neil skipped in for the cash to pay his fare. Meantime events had happened. Two policemen had been shot at Frankston. The Chelsea police had been telephoned, and were on the look out. No sooner did Neil come out than a local sleuth, who had meantime arrested the car and occupants on suspicion, told him “to step in”. This he did, and without a word was whirled off to Frankston. Not a word was said. Neil was conjuring up visions of being tried for murder, sedition and a hundred dreadful things. They journeyed around Frankston and district until the small hours of the morning when they were told they
could go home. On the way back they were again held up by search parties of police. Lights were flashed in their faces, and our hero cracked hardy, but felt a little shaky. After a close scrutiny one of the police recognised the lad Porter from Chelsea, and as their innocence absolutely established they proceeded on their way. Since then Neil has been the hero of the hour at Chelsea. All the girls look in him as a kind of modern Sir Galahad. Lucky Neil! “Quite an exciting time”, he told our representative when interviewed. “I rose in the morning at 4.30am little dreaming of the exciting day before me. I arrived back at ‘Chelsea House’ tired, but thrilled, at 4.30am, exactly 24 hours later. I am too tired for words”. *** OWING to Senior–Constable Culhane’s illness, the result of a gunshot wound, Senior-Constable Wilson, of Woomelang, will take temporary charge of Frankston police station. *** RUMOUR has it that Frankston cricket will receive a great impetus by the inclusion of Mr. Ormsby, a prominent player in the junior cricket, that is, of course, provided Mr. Ormsby can find time to play, which is sincerely hoped for. *** CONGRATULATIONS to Miss Dulcie Logan, daughter; of Mr. and Mrs. Logan, Melbourne Road, Frankston, on her having secured a first diploma at the recent examinations held under the auspices of the Musical Society Victoria.
*** Balnarring Beach Letter Last weekend a good number of holiday makers frequented the beach owing to the fairly good weather. Mr. D. and S. Robertson, of “Coolart”, landed nine nice large schnapper on Saturday last. The seals are doing much damage to the fishing along the shore down these parts. It is a great pity that something could not be done so as to get rid of this pest. The Hospital Sunday at the beach has been postponed until a later date owing to not being able to get the Naval Base Band. Mr. Hager has been spending a good deal of time making tables and seats for the park at his own expense. It’s a great pity we had not a few more like him who are interested in the place. It would help to make things convenient for the public generally. Mrs. Strain, of “Cheer-O” Refreshment Booth, has obtained a two years lease from the foreshore committee. Good luck to her! We all appreciate her strawberries and cream. A good few enquiries have been made re the beach blocks. Things are quietly on the move. *** Frankston Police Court On Tuesday last, before Messrs. C. W. Grant (chairman), and J. Brown, J’s.P., Augustivus Livingstone was charged with being drunk and disorderly. Augustivus, in consequence, will have to pay 20/-, or retire into forced seclusion for 48 hours. Fred. Gilbert was charged, that he did, on 17th inst., steal a dress of the value of £1, property of Ida Gallas.
Ida Gallas, the complainant, draper, of Playne Street, deposed that on Saturday, 17th inst.; about 6 p.m., that she was standing in the doorway of her shop, when defendant spoke to her. She then went inside, and coming out again after defendant had left, found that a dress was missing. She saw defendant again in a tearoom, and asked him to give up what he had taken out of her shop. She valued the dress at £1. Constable Graham said that on Saturday, 17th inst., at 6.30 p.m., he saw defendant, and told that he answered the description of a man who was seen in a draper’s shop in Playne street, Frankston, and he would take him back for identification. On the way back Constable Graham was informed that a dress was lying on a vacant piece of ground, and asked accused whether he had seen the dress before. Accused said he had not, and when questioned at the police station, denied having been in the shop or seeing the dress. Accused had been drinking and was very excited. Accused pleaded “not guilty”, and said that he had been wounded in the head, and when he took a few drinks, did not know what occurred. After deliberation, the chairman, admonished the defendant, and adjourned the case for 13 weeks. A claim by complainant for damage to dress, was disallowed. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 21 & 23 Nov 1923

WHAT'S NEW....
Celebrating 20 Years of Pelican Park Recreation Centre Pelican Park Recreation Centre first opened its doors in December 2003. The transition from an old outdoor pool to a state-of-the-art facility marked a visionary step by the Mornington Peninsula Shire, showcasing its commitment to the evolving needs of a growing community. As the 20th anniversary of this iconic Hastings facility is celebrated, it is a fitting moment to reflect on its journey, transformation and the contributions it has made to the local community. Managed by Mornington Peninsula Shire in its initial years and subse-
quently overseen by Belgravia Leisure for the past six, Pelican Park has thrived along with some remarkable transformations. The centre’s physical transformation from ground-up construction of a brand-new facility, to refurbished amenities, introduced services to better address the diverse recreational requirements of the community, improved gym facilities and rejuvenated aquatic features are all clear demonstrations of the ongoing dedication in enhancing the centre. Beyond these lies the heart of Pelican Park. Its dedicated members and staff both past and present, who embody
the centre’s spirit. Their unwavering commitment and passion have been integral in fostering a sense of community, making Pelican Park a home for the community not just a building. Kathy, who has been a group fitness instructor since prior to opening says "the best thing about being part of the Pelican Park journey for the last twenty years is still having some of the same clients alongside me after all of these years who I now call friends." A testament of this was earlier this year, when Pelican Park was awarded Medium Facility of The Year at the 2023 Aquatic and Recreation
Victoria annual awards ceremony. This recognition proves Pelican Park remains committed to offering diverse programs, engaging initiatives and prioritises community need to guide its evolution as a hub where people come together and connect. In acknowledging the achievements of the past and looking to the future, Pelican Park stands strong to continue its legacy of fostering community well-being, employment opportunities and customer experience while also providing a safe environment being the first recipient of and maintaining its Lifesaving Victoria Pool Platinum
Certification for the past 14 years. Venue manager Judi De La Haye says "it is hard to believe I have been with Pelican Park for over two decades. I have loved seeing this facility and staff offer a great service for our community from which I have truly formed wonderful connections and friendships over the years. Here's to celebrating two decades of success, happy 20th anniversary Pelican Park."

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
Pony Up! Confessions of a Failed Jockey By Stuart McCullough I DON’T care much for horseracing. I appreciate that to say so during the Spring Carnival is tantamount to sacrilege and by merely uttering such a sentiment, I am at risk of being immediately deported, despite having been born here. I suppose when you’ve ridden horses at the elite level like I have, it’s hard to get that excited about a bunch of people dressed like Christmas presents galloping around in a circle. I rode horses as a child. Whether my parents erroneously believed I’d stopped growing at ten years of age and was a chance of becoming a professional jockey, they never said. I don’t recall asking for horse riding lessons. But our parents believed that if we were growing up in the country, we ought to be able to ride a horse. Perhaps they were skeptical as to whether the whole ‘car’ thing would catch on, and being able to ride would give us a substantial advantage over all those suckers who thought the horsepower of a Ford Cortina was better than an actual horse. Fools! The lessons were in a paddock in Mount Eliza. Mostly, I remember being completely terrified. Not of Mount Eliza, but at the idea of having to ride a horse. It was always a grim affair. We’d arrive for our lesson and the stable hands were always possessed by the type of dismal countenance that made you want to turn around and leave. Glumness hung heavily from their faces as they walked the horses from the stables to the front yard. I can’t remember the name of the

owner, only that his primary means of communication was shouting. Perched on a saddle, you never knew when he’d turn his attention towards you and unleash a torrent of abuse about the most trivial of perceived infractions. He had strong opinions on posture, bridle grip and how tight the strap on your helmet was. I suspect he had opinions on everything, from interior decorating to international currency exchanges. He was ahead

of his time. Nowadays, ill-informed but keenly felt opinions are in high demand on Sky News. At horse riding lessons, I wasn’t there to learn. I was there to hang on. Nothing can describe the sense of churning terror I felt whilst riding maybe a Goya painting, but not much else. Whilst we were encouraged to relax, I kept a firm grip on the saddle at all times. Things only got worse when we had to trot.
Trotting on a horse requires that you bob up and down, or otherwise run the risk of bouncing around before tumbling from your mount. I could never get the timing right, so was always bouncing around in the saddle. Cantering was faster but less jarring. Occasionally, one of the horses would get spooked and would take flight with the rider hanging on for dear life. It was the random nature of these events that frightened me most. One moment, you could be trotting along, the next, you were hurtling at the speed of light towards the windbreak. I let my parents know how much I was enjoying horse riding lessons by crying incessantly whenever it was time to go and begging to be left behind. But they were determined. They had seemingly decided that horse riding lessons ranked somewhere between learning to swim and green vegetables in terms of importance. There was only one way to end the madness – by buying a horse. I appreciate that getting a pony for Christmas might seem to many like a dream come true, but this was more like the moment in the horror movie when you realize the scary person on the phone is, in fact, calling you from inside the house. There was no escape. Magpie, as he was named, was probably the meanest horse that ever lived. He was the kind of horse that, if he’d had fingers, would have administered a nipple cripple for no reason other than that he could. If it’d been up to him, he’d have been swathed in tattoos. Magpie took great pleasure in
trotting towards the nearest tree with low-hanging branches in the hope of ridding himself of the unwanted passenger on his back. I begged not to have to ride him. To no avail. Things only changed when we were moving house and we had to transport him from the neighbours to his new home. Magpie didn’t have a saddle or bridle, but my father insisted I ride him anyway. I refused. Intent on teaching me a lesson, my father climbed on the horse and trotted off down the driveway until they disappeared. I was left to follow with nothing but my shame for company. Until, of course, the horse returned up the driveway without my father, who had fallen off* and broken his arm in the process. It was a pivotal moment. One in which I realized that defying my father had ensured my personal safety. Magpie lost a champion in my father that day. And I officially retired from horse riding. Magpie would long have gone to the great paddock in the sky, but I still think of that horse sometimes. He was the first real enemy I ever had. And to this day, I can’t bring myself to watch horseracing. It’s too painful. Perhaps if they introduced some low-hanging branches I might take an interest. But until then, I’ll leave it well enough alone. stuart@stuartmccullough.com *Editor's note: Peter McCullough disputes the description of events and claims the correct description is not "fallen off" But "thrown off".

Perfect Pines performance, Red Hill wins a close one Yabbie's day: Tyabb bowled out Frankston YCW to grab a comfortable win in Sub-District. Picture: Craig Barrett
By Brodie Cowburn
PROVINCIAL
A MASSIVE century by Harley Peace-Stirling has secured an important win for Pines. Sorrento set Pines a target of 113 to score to win. Pines looked shaky batting on day one, and finished up at 5/51 at stumps. Pines looked much more comfortable on day two. On the back of a brilliant knock of 109 not out by Peace-Stirling, they easily surpassed their target. Some excellent bowling saw Long Island get a win over Old Peninsula last Saturday. Long Island were in a good position coming into day two - they scored 261 runs on day one. A middle order collapse cost the Pirates the game. Tom La Brooy scored 41 runs batting at number four, but he got no help from his teammates. Old Peninsula lost 5/22 in the middle order. They ended up all out for 115 after only 42 overs. Matt Shimmell took La Brooy’s wicket and wiped out the tail end. He took 4/26 from 15 overs. Baden Powell fell short at the finish line on Saturday. They were bowled out 14 runs short of their target by Red Hill. Langwarrin’s day one total of 234 proved enough to beat Heatherhill at Lloyd Park last weekend.

win on Saturday. They faced an almighty obstacle in Voelkl, who took final figures of 8/35 from 21 overs. A knock of 44 from 92 by skipper Brayden Roscoe was the Tigers’ best. They were bowled out for 118. At Somerville Reserve, Somerville wrapped up an easy win over Mornington on Saturday. Somerville reached their target with nine wickets to spare. They declared at 3/257 to get another shot at the Bulldogs’ batters. Mornington held onto their wickets in their second innings, and finished day two at 3/28. Moorooduc’s day one total of 241 was too much for Baxter to reach
last weekend. Mt Eliza also won on Saturday, beating Rosebud by six wickets.
DISTRICT
DELACOMBE Park have fallen agonisingly short of beating Main Ridge. Main Ridge scored 135 on day one. Delacombe Park’s run chase got off to a bad start, and on day two they restarted from 3/21. Delacombe Park looked better on day two, but none of their batters could convert their good starts into big scores. Bailey Daffy ended up top scoring with just 33. A late knock of 20 by skipper Daniel Streker put Delacombe Park back in
the hunt, but it wasn’t quite enough. Delacombe Park ended up bowled out for 130. A 128 run opening stand helped Crib Point chase down a big total against Carrum last Saturday. Carrum scored 253 on day one. Crib Point faced a tall task, but proved up for the fight. Openers Jordan Lucy and Matthew Blake combined for 128 runs - Lucy ended up scoring 62 and Blake scored 89. Crib Point worked hard and got the win with seven wickets to spare after 67 overs. Seaford picked up an easy 110 run win over Flinders on Saturday.
RYE won with just one wicket left to spare in a thriller against Ballam Park last Saturday. Ballam Park scored 204 runs on day one, setting Rye a difficult target to chase down. After a shaky start Rye was 3/15 at one point - the chasing side made good progress on their target. Calder McKenzie scored 62 from 62 balls to get his side back on track. His runs proved crucial, as Rye eventually got the win with just one wicket in hand. A late innings of 15 from 85 balls by Jacob Long was also crucial. Pearcedale narrowly avoided an outright loss at home last weekend. Tyabb got a win over Frankston YCW on their home deck, and Skye won a tight one against Tootgarook. Boneo had little trouble beating Hastings.

D-day looms for Frankston Pines SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie FRANKSTON Pines’ immediate future is on the line with the local club scrambling to avoid being booted out of State League by Football Victoria. That’s the bleak prospect facing the men from Monterey if they can’t pay a large percentage of a five-figure debt owed to FV by the end of this month. Last week the state federation announced that many clubs “failed to meet their financial obligations in 2023, resulting in a historic level of debt … nearing $2 million.” It then delivered the bombshell news that “clubs unable or unwilling to meet their financial obligations will be regarded as ineligible to participate in the 2024 season.” That caught Pines off-guard as they expected that their previous repayment plan would remain in place. FV also published a list of “financially compliant” clubs and Pines was a notable absentee. Now it is forced to convince sponsors already signed up for next season to bring forward their payments in order to make the 30 November deadline. “The issue for us is not the amount it’s the timing,” Pines president Lee Davies said. “We put a payment plan to them (FV) then heard nothing from them for four weeks then out of the blue we were told that because there were so many clubs involved they’d decided that we had until the end of November to come up with a percentage (of money owed).
“Sponsors have said they’d pay at a certain time but the plan didn’t involve them paying before the end of November so now we’ve got to run around and convince sponsors who were working to a January timeline to bring it forward. “And we haven’t been given a choice. “FV have told clubs that if they don’t make that first payment they won’t be playing.” Last week’s announcement by FV acknowledged the hardship faced by clubs and that its hardline approach could force them to close but it affirmed its intention to implement its policy switch. “While it is expected most clubs will be able to rectify their debts ahead of season 2024, FV recognizes that some clubs are not financially sustainable,” the announcement said. “This may result in mergers, acquisitions or closures – which although challenging – would ultimately lead to stronger and more sustainable clubs who can offer a better football experience for their members and the community they serve.” That view was challenged by Labor Member for Pascoe Vale, Anthony Cianflone, who launched a scathing attack in state parliament last week questioning the role, governance and culture of FV and listing a number of club concerns at the actions of the federation. “These include at least seven different CEOs heading up Football Victoria in the last seven years; FV failing to hold an annual general meeting for almost 18 months; FV not making an annual report publicly available on its website since 2019; FV failing to progress long
overdue constitutional and governance reforms, including the implementation of the one club, one vote principle; FV continuing to charge local clubs and families some of the highest fees of any sporting code in return for what many consider to be diminishing support for local clubs; FV failing to clarify its current financial position with its most recent publicly available 2021 financial report citing FV had generated a surplus of $2.1 million; and FV having failed to contribute even one dollar towards the construction of any local football facility upgrades and not even one dollar towards the construction of the Home of the Matildas at La Trobe University,” Mr Cianflone said. Peninsula Strikers are one of FV’s financially compliant clubs and have been operating under a payment arrangement for some time. “I put a payment plan in place early this year to help with cashflow but it concerns me how much FV are charging clubs for player registration and team entry fees every year,” club president Adrian Scialpi said. “Compared to NSW our ‘rego’ fees for State League players is more than double. “Just to register my senior and reserves teams last year cost in excess of $17,000. “The big issue is the cost of football in Victoria and more and more clubs will find it harder to survive if costs continue to rise. “With player and team registrations, ground tenancy and player uniforms it costs nearly $40,000 before we even

start the season.” In State 5 news Seaford United recently elected Karyn Pert as president replacing long-serving Willie Lynn who stepped down from the role. Pert is now the only female president among the 14 FV senior clubs throughout the peninsula. Her involvement with Seaford dates back to the 1990s and she already has served on the committee in various roles while also playing for the women’s team. When she retired from playing she took up coaching and guided the club’s under-12 girls team to a fourth-placed finish this year. “Basically we want to continue as a grassroots club and we’re not really aiming at being an NPL club but I’d like to have more junior teams and a clear pathway for them into the seniors,” Pert said.

“I’m hoping we’ll have an under-16 boys team next year and under-15 girls and maybe under-18s for both. “As for the seniors I haven’t had a chat with the coaches yet but that will come in the next week or so. “I want to make that we’re on the same page and we’re aiming for promotion next season.” In NPL2 news Langwarrin has announced its pre-Christmas practicematch schedule: It starts with an away clash against Manningham United Blues at Petty’s Reserve on Friday 1 December at 7.15pm. Other games are: v Green Gully, Green Gully Reserve, Saturday 9 December, 11am; v Brunswick Juventus, Lawton Park, Saturday 16 December,4.30pm & 7pm; v Nunawading City, Lawton Park, Thursday 21 December, 7.30pm.
