Jobs pain in plant closure Employment in the western suburbs has been dealt another blow, with more than 100 jobs to go when a poultry processing plant shuts its doors. Baiada Poultry announced last week its Laverton North processing plant will be shut down on March 31 next year due to “tough market conditions”. All processing operations will be consolidated and moved to New South Wales. Baiada Poultry managing director Simon Camilleri said the decision to close the plant was a difficult one that management had agonised over and tried to avoid. “Unfortunately, market conditions require us to consolidate our national processing operations, meaning we could no longer viably operate the Laverton processing facility in the medium to long term,” he said. “We will be working through the process of closure with our employees, growers and other business partners, to minimise impacts wherever we can.” Mr Camilleri said all employee and contractual obligations will be met, and the company will “work closely” with the National Union of Workers to find affected staff new roles with other employers. National Union of Workers spokesman Alex Snowball said the plant’s closure was “absolutely devastating” for workers. “Most of these workers have worked
[at Baiada] for about 15 or 20 years; they’ve only ever worked in poultry,” he said. Mr Snowball said the union would help the workforce – mostly made up of people aged over 35 and from migrant backgrounds – to find new jobs. “[Baiada] has indicated they will work with them to get jobs elsewhere in the poultry industry,” he said.
‘‘
They will work with them to get jobs elsewhere in the industry - Alex Snowball
’’
“It’s still early days, with the first half [of workers] to go in January, and the second half in March … so there is time to do something to assist these workers. “It’s just really sad news.” Sixteen chicken growers will also have their contracts terminated as a result of the closure. The Victorian Farmer’s Federation (VFF) chicken meat president Allan Bullen said the closure was a severe setback for the poultry industry. “It’s a sad situation that has unfortunately been driven by market concerns … we understand the decision Baiada has taken,” Mr Bullen said. The distribution arm of the Laverton North processor will not be affected by the plant’s closure, and will continue to operate.

Everything’s coming up roses There’s never been a better time to stop and smell the roses. Thousands of people are expected to flock to Werribee’s Victorian State Rose Garden on November 19 and 20 for the fourth annual State Rose and Garden Show, which will feature plant care demonstrations, guided tours of the park and refreshments in the shade of the garden’s grand pine trees. Rose experts and TV gardeners – including Channel Nine’s Kim Syrus, SBS plant and produce guru Vasili Kanidiadis and Gardening Australia’s Costa Georgiadis – will be on hand at the free event to give green thumbs their top tips. Claudia Siebel and Sascha Irving (pictured) took time out last week to enjoy the blooms. Check out the full program guide at www.stateroseandgardenshow.com.au Charlene Macaulay

Council vote unveiled next week By Adem Saban Wyndham residents won’t know who makes up their new council until November 2. Voters had a deadline of 6pm Friday to have their ballots in the mail. Those who didn’t are likely to receive a fine of $78. As of 12.30pm on Monday, 84,287 enrolled voters had returned their ballots, with the Victorian Electoral Commission (VEC) waiting on 56,723 – or 40.23 per cent. VEC spokesman Lawson Fletcher said returns would increase over this week as the
commission receives postal ballots mailed last week. “Regarding result timelines, Wyndham council is made up of multi-member wards,” Mr Fletcher said. “For these wards, we conduct a computer count. “While counting activities will commence in the week following close of voting, the VEC now has an extra five working days to accept ballots [mailed before close of voting] into the count, up to noon on October 28,” he said. Mr Fletcher said because computer counts can only be undertaken once all admissible
‘‘
Expect full provisional results between October 28 - Lawson Fletcher and 30
’’
ballot papers are received, results for Wyndham will not be available until after the deadline. “You can expect full provisional results between noon October 28 and October 30,” he said. The official declaration of results will take place at the council chambers on November 2. This year’s election in Wyndham has broken
a national record for the greatest number of candidates vying for a spot on the council – 95 hopefuls are fighting it out for just 11 places. Harrison ward has attracted the most candidates, with 41 battling for one of four spots available. This ward will definitely see fresh blood, with councillors Bob Fairclough and Glenn Goodfellow not re-contesting. Thirty-five candidates are contesting Chaffey ward, with all incumbents putting their hand up again. In Iramoo, 19 candidates have thrown their hats in the ring, with incumbent Peter Gibbons bowing out.

A group of primary school pen pals got to meet for the first time last week. Grade 6 pupils at Al-Taqwa College and Wonthaggi Primary School have spent this past year writing to one another – pen on paper – as pen pals. Last Tuesday, they put faces to the names when Wonthaggi pupils visited the college’s Truganina campus.
Police are warning people against dressing up in scary clown costumes ahead of a planned “clown purge” in Caroline Springs next month. Administrators of a Melbournededicated clown Facebook page posted a photo earlier this month, warning people clowns would be coming to Caroline Springs, Point Cook, Docklands, Melbourne and Mill Park. The clown craze, which involves people dressing up as a clown and stalking the streets in an attempt to threaten and intimidate others, emerged recently in the US and is being replicated worldwide. Victoria Police spokeswoman Kelly Grindley said a number of arrests had been made across the state, including Warnambool, Moe, Mildura and Melbourne. She said people could face a two-year jail sentence for possessing an article of disguise. “We understand that some people are getting involved for a bit of fun, but … this behaviour is not amusing and, in many cases, it is criminal behaviour,” Ms Grindley said. “Victoria Police does not tolerate intimidation, the incitement of fear or the carrying of weapons.” Earlier this month, Keilor Downs College was on high alert after social media posts warned that clowns were expected to pay the school a visit. Police said the incident wasn’t clownrelated, but officers found a mask hanging over a passenger seat of a car parked near the school. If you have information relating to the clown craze, call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Road review dovetails with app By Charlene Macaulay Sick of seeing red every time you drive along Derrimut Road? VicRoads is calling on drivers to share their travel experiences on the 1.5 kilometre stretch of Derrimut Road between Railway Avenue and Pacific Werribee as part of its annual traffic light route review. Derrimut Road is one of eight roads in the state selected to be reviewed. VicRoads’ journey services director Sameem
Moslih said this year’s review would consider traffic volumes, competing demands from different forms of transport, and travel times between different traffic lights. Derrimut Road was chosen for the review due to its traffic volumes as well as feedback from the community. “We know how frustrating it is to be stuck in traffic, which is why each year VicRoads looks at improving traffic light sequences,� Mr Moslih said. “Victorians rely on these roads every day, so it is important that we consider
their experiences when we conduct route reviews. “Melbourne’s population is growing by 2000 people per week. The answer to congestion isn’t just about building new roads – it’s about looking for ways to use the road network more effectively.� The results of the review will be available early next year. The review coincides with the development of a new VicRoads app which will allow vehicles to pass through consecutive waves of green
lights. Mr Moslih said VicRoads is working with Intelematics on the hands-free smart phone app, which will give drivers messages about traffic along their routes via GPS. The app is currently undergoing an 18-month trial. “We’re taking a smart approach to managing traffic and giving drivers the ability to make informed and practical decisions about their journey.� Drivers can have their say at www.engage. vicroads.vic.gov.au/traffic-lights
Better run on busy road Works have started on a $6.71 million upgrade of Palmers Road. The project, jointly funded by the state government and Wyndham council, will include a dedicated lane for buses, taxis and multi-occupancy vehicles on Palmers Road northbound between Dunnings Road and Skeleton Creek. Palmers Road is one of Wyndham’s busiest arterial roads, with an average of 25,000 vehicles a day travelling between Dunnings Road and Skeleton Creek. Traffic lights at the Palmers and Dunnings roads intersection will be adjusted to give priority to buses, and there will be three bus stops, with indented bays, along Palmers Road. Meanwhile, walkers and cyclists will benefit from improved street lighting and a shared user path along the length of Palmers Road that will connect with the Princes Freeway overpass and Williams Landing train station.
The works are expected to be completed by May next year. Altona MP Jill Hennessy said that, once completed, the works would slash travel time along Palmers Road by between eight and 27 minutes, depending on the time of day. Visiting the site last week, Ms Hennessy said the works were aimed at making carpooling and public transport, especially buses, a more realistic option for commuters. “Importantly, this project will reduce congestion, cut travel times and improve access and connections to Williams Landing train station,� she said. “The extra lane will also create more space on Palmers Road, making it easier for all road users to get to where they need to go.� Charlene Macaulay Jill Hennessy inspects the site of the new roadworks.

Relief for irrigators flagged By Adem Saban
Frock-up is all frills for funds Dressing up has never been more fun – nor so good for your health. Werribee’s Eilis Hughes has worn a dress every day for the month of October, doing her bit to support Frocktober, an Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation fundraiser. The annual event raises money to fund the development of an early detection test that is non-invasive and cost effective, and can be performed as a regular health check. Ms Hughes, 42, started Frocktober fundraising four years ago, and hopes to raise $3000 through her efforts this year. As well as frocking up each day, Ms Hughes set up a stall at last weekend’s garage sale trail, and spun the decks as a DJ during a frock-themed fundraising party. “Originally, I signed up because it was fun, but then I learnt a lot about ovarian cancer in the process … and I have friends of friends and friends of family who have died of ovarian cancer, and it became really important,” she said. “It’s not easily detected – usually when people are diagnosed it’s too late … that’s why it’s so important to get some research and attention.” About 1500 Australian women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer every year, most of them in an advanced stage of the disease.

A solution to Werribee South farmers’ water woes could be near if a state government policy is enacted. The policy, Water for Victoria, released last week, identifies the Werribee River as one of the state’s 36 priority waterways, listing its environmental, economic, cultural and social values. Among submitters to the policy development was a Werribee South steering group, which flagged concerns about the sustainability of the Werribee Irrigation District. The submission highlighted a shortage of water for irrigation from the Werribee River, a ban on pumping water from bores on farming properties and “unacceptably high” salt content in the available recycled water. State Water Minister Lisa Neville said reliable irrigation supply had been identified as one of the targeted 30-year outcomes for the Werribee River. “The strategy also addresses the issues of declining water availability and saline water facing irrigators in Werribee district,” she said. Ms Neville said an irrigation system upgrade, partially funded in the state budget, would also assist farmers “by preserving more low-salinity river water, not losing it from seepage through channels, and establishing an environmental entitlement that will improve the river’s health”. She also flagged a salinity working group, in a three-way partnership between Melbourne Water, Southern Rural Water and City West Water, as a way to explore options to reduce salinity of the water supply. She said Southern Rural Water had secured 3000 megalitres of low-salinity water from the Macalister system which would assist Werribee and Bacchus Marsh irrigators in times of need.

T
he other day, I was innocently listening to the radio and a song came on that really summed up some thoughts I have been having lately, as my family starts to begin the transition from primary to high school. It was a Paul Simon song from the mid-70s called Kodachrome, which starts with the unforgettable words: “When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school, it is a wonder I can think at all”. When that song was released it was like a teenage anthem of rebellion for endless hours of logarithms, trigonometry, physics and chemistry, force-fed by the dark side of humanity, aka teachers. Every day on Facebook now there are posts of people boasting of another day on the planet survived without needing to refer to year nine algebra, or any of the subjects I just mentioned. I agree that much of what I was taught in school has not been a necessary reference library for my professional or personal life. But I did learn to think. I did learn to question things and to delve more into matters. I learned to work with and without other people. I

Police are investigating the discovery of a clan lab at a Werribee South property last week. The lab was located at a residential property on Duncans Road about 10.30am on October 19. A clan lab, also known as clandestine drug laboratories, are sites where illegal drugs are manufactured. A 53-year-old Sunshine man arrested on the same night in Footscray is helping police with their inquiries.

An ammonia leak led to a factory fire in Laverton North last week. Firefighters went to Linfox Foods on Leakes Road about 10.30am on October 18 and located an ammonia leak in a tank. Working with Linfox engineers, they plugged the leak and put out the fire. Fifty workers were safely evacuated.

Conmen on the job, cops warn By Adem Saban Residents across the western suburbs are being warned to keep an eye out for door-to-door con artists offering their services. Senior Sergeant Aaron Riches, of the north-west region’s proactive policing unit, said dodgy salesmen and women are “always an issue” across the west, targeting senior and vulnerable residents. “They offer insulation works, re-roofing, free internet, air-conditioning and even solar panels,” he said. “They look the part in their
high-visibility attire and official lanyards ... but when you dig down, there isn’t much substance to them.” Senior Sergeant Riches advised residents not to engage with door-to-door salespeople at all. “Historically, it’s not an appropriate method of engaging people,” he said. “Given the current environment, if you’ve got concerns, take the person’s details, don’t commit to anything and don’t provide any banking details or your surname.” He said senior citizens were generally a bigger target.
‘‘
If they refuse [to leave], they are breaking the law
’’
- Marlene Kairouz
“When the door is opened and they see someone elderly, [con artists] will be more persistent in what they’re trying to achieve. Close the door and call triple-0,” Senior Sergeant Riches said. The state government is also warning residents to be weary of door-to-door
salespeople offering cheap ‘today only’ cash deals on jobs around the house. Minister for Consumer Affairs Marlene Kairouz said the scammers often asked for cash payments upfront then took the money and ran. “If you suspect a travelling con man is at your door, ask them to leave,” she said. “If they refuse, they are breaking the law.” The north-west region’s proactive unit will host an information session at Edgewater Harbour Park, corner of Magazine Way and Edgewater Boulevard, on November 19, 10am until 5pm.
Top gun sticks to her aim When it comes to clay target shooting, Anna Shedrina is a gun. The Point Cook resident last month took the title of best female shooter at the Universal Trench World Championships in Morocco, and was a member of the winning female team. “In one word, it feels unbelievable,” she said. “Who doesn’t dream about one day becoming a world champion? I certainly did when I was growing up, and well into my adult life. To make that dream become a reality … words cannot describe how that makes me feel. “It makes all the hard work, and all the disappointments when things didn’t go my way over the years, worthwhile. I’d like to do it again and again.” Shedrina successfully shot 193 of the 200 targets in the competition, achieving a new personal best as well – all with a wrist injury. “I think my success, despite this setback, can be put down to the attitude that one has when
things don’t go their way,” she said. “I had a few things that didn’t go my way, which cost me some targets. “But rather than get upset and frustrated, I took it all in stride. “I told myself that I have a choice – I can let myself get frustrated and upset about it, and it will affect the rest of my performance, or I can let go of it and focus on what’s important at the present moment – the next target.” Looking to the future, Shedrina hopes to again win the world championships, and possibly a medal or two at the Olympics.

Crashes bring speed limit cuts By Charlene Macaulay Drivers need to slow down on Sayers Road with VicRoads having slashed the speed limit following 60 casualty crashes in the past five years. VicRoads has cut the speed limit between Palmers and Derrimut roads, from 70km/h to 60km/h in line with the organisation’s ‘towards zero’ road safety strategy. The new limit came into effect on October 14 following the crashes, which included two fatalities in the past 12 months and 25 serious
injuries over the 5.2-kilometre section of road. Casualty crashes are defined as a crash that results in at least one road user being injured or killed. In January, 19-year-old Natasha Pigot died when her car was hit from behind as she waited to turn right from Sayers Road into Palmers Road. Both cars then spun and were clipped by a third vehicle travelling in the opposite direction. Acting Senior Sergeant Ely Reynolds, of the Westgate highway patrol, said increased residential development, increased pedestrian
activity and nearby schools were driving up the collision rate along that stretch of road. “Any reduction is going to help; we endorsed it as a good initiative,” he said. Last Friday, VicRoads also reduced the speed limit along Hopkins Road between Dohertys and Greigs roads from 100km/h to 80km/h. This 7.5-kilometre section, which becomes Derrimut Road from Boundary Road onwards, is a major thoroughfare between Wyndham and Melton. In the past five years, police have recorded 32 casualty crashes along the stretch of Hopkins
Road, including three fatalities and nine serious injuries. Melton divisional road policing adviser Ross Burbidge said speeding and inappropriate overtaking were causing the bulk of the collisions. “People take risks because they’re in a 100km/h zone and don’t see the oncoming vehicles and that’s when we have head-on collisions,” he said. “It’s still only a two-way, single-lane freeway.” Acting Senior Sergeant Reynolds said no other speed reductions were on the cards for Wyndham.
BMX comp cool for kids Three Wyndham BMX riders have received top honours at a statewide school competition. Sienna Richmond and Jai Copland, both 9, and Mitchell Ord, 14 – all members of the Wyndham Warriors BMX Club – ranked first in different categories at the Victorian Schools Cycling Competition. The three riders, all relatively new to the sport, are thrilled with their wins. “It’s a real accomplishment to beat someone you’ve never been able to beat before,” Sienna said. “It’s fun winning, but being at the front in a race gets a bit boring,” Jai added. “I like riding in a pack.” Mitch said it was “a good feeling”. Reflecting on what they love most about the sport, Sienna, who has been riding for 16 months, says she enjoys doing tricks and jumps. Jai says it’s fun to ride and he’s made lots of new friends since taking up the sport last year.
Mitch loves the friendly atmosphere among competitors. Offering advice to other children looking for a new sport to take up, Sienna suggests BMX riding. “It will be fun for you,” she says. “A lot of kids are unfit, so hop on a bike and have some fun. The Wyndham Warriors BMX Club is small, but it’s good to be a part of.” The three riders are looking forward to taking part in the BMX state championships in Shepparton next month. Adem Saban

Motorcycle toll prompts warning By Adem Saban Motorcyclists must obey the law – just like all other road users. That is the message Westgate Highway Patrol is trying to get across to riders across Wyndham. Patrol Sergeant Aaron Prentice-Evans has issued a warning to motorcyclists about speeding and safety while riding on Wyndham roads. “They may think they’re above the law riding the way that they do,” he said.
“We will catch up with them eventually – they’ll bring themselves unstuck.” With the weather warming up, Sergeant Prentice-Evans said the number of motorbikes on the road would be increasing. “The concern is these riders haven’t been riding through the colder, wetter months and they’re out of practice,” he said. “They don’t ease themselves in … often their confidence outweighs their abilities.” He said Wyndham hot-spots for speeding motorcyclists included Sayers and Derrimut roads, as well as the Princes Highway.
‘‘
Often their confidence outweighs their abilities
’’
- Aaron Prentice-Evans
Sergeant Prentice-Evans’ warning comes after a number of incidents on Wyndham roads involving motorbikes. On Friday, a 65-year-old Werribee man was killed on Palmers Road in Truganina after his motorcycle struck the rear end of a car just before 5pm.
The rider died at the scene and his bike ended up on the wrong side of the road. Police are investigating. In a separate incident on Sunday, October 16, a 37-year-old man was clocked travelling at 151km/h in a 100km/h zone on a motorcycle along Ballan Road in Quandong. His motorcycle was impounded and Sergeant Prentice-Evans said it was likely he would face charges. “These sort of high speeds can result in the rider sustaining injury, or even killing someone else,” he said.
Magic at the mansion The man behind the popular Falls Festival is taking his promotional career in a direction that matches his family man status – and loving it. Simon Daly has created the Lost Lands Festival, which will be held at Werribee Mansion over Melbourne Cup weekend. After 20 years of running one of the biggest festivals in Australia across three states, he decided it was time to hand the Falls reins over to spend more time with his family. Camping with family along a river in the state’s south-west, he had a brainwave. “I thought, wouldn’t it be amazing for the next phase in my life to be a festival experience with the family, adding music, arts, comedy and theatre,” he said. He researched the idea, travelling to the UK’s Camp Bestival, a family-friendly festival at Lulworth Castle, and what he found validated his scheme.
Deciding on a location, Werribee Mansion made all sorts of sense. “You’ve got the beauty of the gardens and the mansion, which is like a castle for the kids,” he said. The program, he says, offers plenty for both children and their parents. Among the artists performing will be Missy Higgins, The Waifs, Architecture in Helsinki, Tim Rogers and the Bamboos, while The Listies, The Teeny Tiny Stevies and the Pants Down Circus will appeal to younger punters. While camping at the two-day festival is expected to be sold out this week, Daly said day passes to the festival were still available.

Pedals powering hope By Charlene Macaulay A Hoppers Crossing man has raised almost $100,000 for the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre through a series of cycling events. Peter Wood has been chalking up dollars and kilometres along with his team, Woody’s Warriors, who have been taking part in the annual 100-kilometre One Day to Conquer Cancer since 2012. The 54-year-old and a friend have also been invited to ride in the three-day, 375-kilometre Tour de Cure – which starts in Geelong, goes to Barwon Heads and finishes at Peter Mac – next month. Mr Wood says he and his team have raised about $97,000 in the past four years through sponsorships, and they’re keen to hit the $100,000 mark for the Tour de Cure. “This all started when I turned 50 and thought life was passing me by and I took it on as a challenge,” he said. “Different people over the years have joined me. I’m a pretty big bloke, and I think my fitness has improved over the last few years. “I’ve never been a big cyclist … I’m pretty pleased with what we’ve raised; I’m a bit surprised we’ve got to that amount. “All the rides we’ve done have been for Peter Mac. “We hit up our family and friends for donations and I’ve had great local support from some of the service groups … we’ve run trivia nights, done a Bunnings barbecue; there’s all sorts of opportunities for trying to raise the money.” To donate, go to http://bit.ly/2dA8cXB

Security upgrade for Werribee court Werribee Magistrates’ Court is undergoing a revamp. The court, built in 1980, is getting “minor upgrades” to its offices and a reconfiguration of entry to the building. As a result, the main Duncans Road entrance has been closed during construction, with visitors being asked to enter the court building from Salisbury Street. A spokeswoman said the Magistrates’ Court of Victoria had received funding to expand specialist family violence services and improve safety and security at a range of court locations, including Werribee. The Geelong and Sunshine magistrates’ courts are receiving similar upgrades. The spokeswoman did not specify how much the works would cost. “It is anticipated that the works will be completed in December,” she said. Meanwhile, western suburbs sexual assault victims will soon have a new support hub in Wyndham. The state government is in the process of establishing a multi-disciplinary centre modelled on facilities in Geelong, Mildura, Seaford, Dandenong and Bendigo. This year’s state budget included $2.9 million for the Wyndham hub. The state government has not revealed when the centre will open. Charlene Macaulay

New spin on fundraising It’s the spin class that lasts 24 hours, all the while raising funds for cancer research. Think Relay for Life, but on spin bikes. The 24-hour cycle challenge, now in its second year, is the brainchild of In-Balance Fitness at Werribee. About 170 people rode spin bikes for 24 hours non-stop from Friday to Saturday, raising a whopping $17,400 for the Cancer Council. “We were just blown away with how much was raised,” club manager Irene Cicala said. Ms Cicala said the 170 participants were spread across nine teams, with at least two people per team riding at any point over the 24 hours. “We had one couple riding for 14 hours over the period … it was just unbelievable,” she said.
“We had themed hours throughout the event, like ‘80s hour’ when the instructor and people on bikes sang non-stop for an hour. “Then there was superhero hour, and even pirate hour, with the instructor having everybody scream ‘ahoy captain’ as they wore pirate hats. “It was highly energised … there wasn’t a single hour that you’d walk in and think this is boring.” Ms Cicala thanked the 44 Wyndham small businesses and eight individuals who donated to the silent auction, which helped reach the final figure. Funds raised, she said, would go towards cancer research. Adem Saban

Lion cubs celebrate with a treat (Pictures: Damjan Janevski)
By Charlene Macaulay It’s not every day you turn one. Lion cubs Kito, Kashka and Kubwa celebrated their first birthday at Werribee Open Range Zoo last Thursday, each getting their own custom-made cardboard birthday cakes with rhino poo – a cub delicacy. The birthday is an important milestone for the youngsters, who were the first lions to be born at the zoo. The cubs spent their first two months of life in a special nesting den with mum, Nilo, while keepers closely monitored their development via a video camera link. Keeper Katherine Quinn said, at 12 months, the cubs now weigh about 80kg, and their personalities are starting to emerge. “Kito is very confident and curious, while for Kashka, it’s all about mealtimes, and he is often spotted sneaking food from mum,” Ms Quinn said. “Kubwa is a little more cautious than his brothers, taking his time to figure things out.”

It’s more than a haircut This hairdresser has really made the cut in life. Vito “Vic” Sammartino will celebrate 50 years in his eponymous Station Place barber shop next month and shows no signs of slowing down. Mr Sammartino learnt the tools of the trade as a child in his hometown of Vizzini, Sicily, where he would help out at the village barber shop after school. “It’s not like here, where you have apprenticeships,” he said. “I’d go after school, help sweep and clean up, and start to shave customers. I was about seven or eight.” When he moved to Werribee as a 19-year-old, he started working at the local barber on Station Place, entering into a business partnership with
then-owner Gerald Agosta within the year. Since then, thousands of customers have been through his salon’s doors and many have been regulars for decades. The 70-year-old said he loved living and working in Werribee, where he met his wife of 43 years, Lina, and brought up his two children. Mr Sammartino is also the proud grandfather of two. “I’ve alaways lived in this town,” he said. “I’ve built a house, a family … I’ve only ever done this trade. “There’s not many barber shops now, but I still like what I do – I’m happy.” Charlene Macaulay

Old favourite plays to the crowd By Adem Saban
“And the sun even made an appearance over the weekend. “With live entertainment, roving performers, a silent disco and Little Red Train rides around the grounds of Werribee Park, the event was once again a huge success,” she said. Other attractions of the picnic were bungee trampolines, roving performers and face painting. One popular workshop had children creating light-based animations using glowsticks, torches and LED lights.
Sports, crafts, music and dance were all part of the fun as crowds flocked to Werribee Park at the weekend for this year’s Children’s Week Picnic. About 4000 people turned out on Sunday for the annual get-together. Wyndham council’s city life director, Jenny McMahon, said the day was a success, overall. “The rain managed to stay away,” Ms McMahon said.

A claim was made in the heath inspector’s report to Monday night’s Werribee Shire Council that gas-fired incinerator toilets were a fire hazard and should no longer be approved in large residential areas. A further recommendation asked that all further permits for such units be conditional on installation of an approved fire extinguisher.
The $6.2 million Forsyths Road overpass project could be shelved for several years if plans by the State Transport Authority to alter the proposed design go ahead. Werribee’s shire engineer John Nicol said the Authority wants to raise the planned Forsyths Road bridge to allow some forms of rolling stock to use the nearby railway line.
A $35 million harbour and marina, expected to attract more than 200,000 visitors each year, could be built in Werribee South within the next two years. The plans for the development include 300 wet berths, 90 dry berths, 80 accommodation units, a restaurant and major tourist facility – either a maritime museum, aquarium or waterworld fun park.
Police have called for calm as Wyndham schoolchildren are being abused, spat on and victimised while in uniform, in the wake of the DVD scandal. Wyndham youth resources officer Senior Constable Ross Whittingham said schools had also received numerous abusive phone calls, including some threatening physical violence and harm to participants in the DVD.

MY WYNDHAM Kendelle Hodges, 24, is one of Australia’s brightest female cyclists and has enjoyed a successful year racing in the US and Canada. The Werribee resident, who recently won events in the National Road Series, spoke to Charlene Macaulay.
How did you get into cycling? It was through school. I did a novice competition for school riders. I went well there and really enjoyed it, so I joined a club and it all just progressed from there. I started riding at 15. This year, I went over to race in America for three months and that was a really great experience, probably the best thing I’ve done. When I came back, we had some national road series races, and I won a race in Canberra about a month ago. And I understand you’re heading back to America next year? I ended up being picked for the Colavita Bianchi pro team for next year, based on the results of my races over there. I’ll live in Boulder, Colorado, next year and race with them. One of my friends from Adelaide is in the team as well. I’ll be there for seven months.
WERRIBEE 9749 7333
Do you ever suffer from pre-race nerves? Not really. I guess I’ve been doing it for a while now, but the bigger the race is, sometimes [I’ll get nervous]. What races over your career stand out? There’s always been special moments along the way, and I’ll always remember my first national medal on the track as an under-19. That was pretty special, and when I represented Australia at the junior world championships. Most recently, I won a race in Canada – that was exciting. You recently took on the 280-kilometre Melbourne to Warrnambool. How did you go? It’s the first year I’ve done it, but unfortunately, at 80 kilometres, my gears broke and I wasn’t able to resume. I’m looking forward to doing it again next year; it’s something I’d like to complete.

I’ve lived here forever. I used to go fishing down at Werribee South with dad and my brothers when I was a kid. I went to Heathdale Christian College from prep to year 12.
I’m really excited, it’s a really big opportunity for me and I’m hoping to have a fantastic year with them. It’s a really great environment to be part of. It’s the next step forward for me. [Cycling] is much bigger there; there’s a lot more racing.

Tips for scavenging for holiday Wi-Fi By Tracey Spicer, via Fairfax He explores the urban jungle – a 21st century warrior – seeking signs and signals. Taj Thompson thinks he’s Bear Grylls in Man v. Wild (without drinking his own urine. Yet). Instead of a scrotum full of maggots for sustenance, our son searches for something even more elusive: connectivity. On each odyssey, the 11-year-old wanders – iPod in palm, as a compass – until he sees the
symbol. “Mum, this cafe has Wi-Fi. Let’s have lunch here!” Families are accustomed to the dark arts of scavenging Wi-Fi, because it takes up so much of our travelling budget. Technology is an essential part of our lives: We want to stay in touch back home, remain entertained during the journey, and keep a record of our experiences. It’s easy to grab a travel pack from your local telco, but they’re extortionately expensive. “The best, and the one I use, is Vodafone,
which allows customers to make and receive calls, and use the data their plan entitles them to, for just $5 a day in more than 55 countries,” Stephen Fenech, the editor of TechGuide.com. au, says. But this isn’t the best option. Overseas, you’re better off buying a pre-paid SIM at your destination: More data for your money. (Of course, get your smartphone or tablet unlocked by your telco before hopping on the plane or ship.) “The advantage of having a SIM, especially
if you’re travelling as a family, is the ability to make the smartphone with the foreign SIM a hotspot, so the kids can use it to connect to the Internet,” Fenech says. “Instead of buying a SIM card for everyone, you buy one with a lot of data and share that connection.” Most places have free public Wi-Fi these days. But the strength of signal varies wildly. In one episode of Boy v. Wild, Taj crams into the corner of a corridor in a shopping centre, screaming, “I’ve got a signal!” He proceeds to –

TRAVEL
Ten essential items every traveller should pack
loudly – FaceTime his best friend. When travelling overseas for work, Stephen Fenech FaceTimes his family from Apple Stores, because “they have especially fast Wi-Fi”. “I just remember to carry a pair of earphones so I can hear them easily and they can hear me without me having to shout in the middle of the store/restaurant/cafe/airport lounge.” You can check your emails on the computers in Apple Stores, too. Remember this rule is for each family device: Turn off data roaming or you’ll be slugged with $3 a MB. That’s a costly Facebook post. Also, switch off location services and push notifications. We always carry a powerboard with four points. Then, you only need one international adaptor to connect to the wall. A portable battery is handy, if you’re on the move. You don’t have to send the children to scrounge for connectivity, like Bear Grylls seeking beetles on the rainforest floor. Search the urban jungle for a tech store instead: It’s infinitely more civilised. Read more: http://www.traveller.com.au/ travelling-with-children-on-the-hunt-for-freewifi-gr3cu1#ixzz4NVCgvoha
“Goofy goes on holiday” snickers my spouse unkindly as I head for the airport, trailing snorkel and fins, or cleated cycling shoes, or possibly spiked walking poles. Every trip is different, and packing for every trip requires a curatorial approach. The travel kit for my next adventure might include sandals specially constructed for walking on reefs, a solar-powered battery charger for the one after that. Regardless of where my ticket says I’m going, at the nucleus of every trip is a time-tested cluster of items that sit in a box labelled “must ride”. 1. A small, squashable day pack that you can fling in your luggage, essential for toting water bottles, tablet device or guidebook and a raincoat or folding umbrella and all the other odds and sods you need on day trips. Also handy as a spillover bag for the homeward journey if you shop too enthusiastically.
7. Whether it’s Alicante or Zing Zang Bar, rain or shine, you need a hat. Crushable, wide-brimmed and tight is the way to go, and if it sheds water so much the better. Mine is a wax cotton Watership Cape Flattery hat, which is incredible durable although not loss-proof (one left on a French bicycle, one on the back seat of a Burmese taxi).
When travelling a torch is a necessity. (iStock)
both hands free to hold a cooking pot or a book ... or fight off bears. 4. Quality earplugs are a must for those whose sleep is less than sound, and handy for blocking aircraft noise as well. My favourites are the soft, tapering, orange Howard Leight MAX1 Earplugs, available from Amazon. 5. Sarongs are the traveller’s best friend. Use one as nightwear, a standby beach towel, modest covering for temple visits or wrap one around a jumper to make a pillow.
2. Clothes dry quicker if they’re hung on a line rather than draped over a bathroom rail. I use a double-strand braided, elastic version with hooks at either end, which holds clothes tight without pegging. 3. Slippery cobblestones and open drains lie in wait for the unwary after dark, which makes a torch a necessity. I use an UltraFire Cree LED torch which casts a big pool of light and also zooms down to a pinpoint, available from Amazon USA for US$6.15. In the wilds, a head torch is better since they leave
8. Universal adapter plug. Some come with a USB charge port, which is a useful addition. Make sure the adapter plug has three holes for compatibility with all Australian 3-pin plugs – some do not. 9. Especially for the hotel-hopping traveller who is unlikely to unpack properly, zip-lock plastic bags are a gift from the travel gods, vital for separating clean from less-than, wet from dry. Also great for sealing potentially leaky items. 10. Superglue has a thousand uses. You can save a flapping shoe sole, mend a suitcase or just do what I usually do and glue your fingers together. Michael Gebicki, via The Age
6. The Swiss Army knife (right) is part of the standard kit for NASA astronauts, and no self-respecting traveller should be without one. From fingernails to dealing with wine corks to digging stones from yaks’ hooves, this is a complete toolkit in a pocket-size pack (just don’t leave it in your carry-on at the airport – it will likely be confiscated by security).

FOOD REVIEW STARWEEKLY.COM.AU
CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir runs critical tastebuds over a favourite fare … Lately, Wednesday nights are burger nights for Consider The Sauce. So off we trek to Ballarat Road at Braybrook. We’ve tried Burgernomics previously – a few days after the joint opened – but it was all too busy and crazy at that point. On a lovely midweek night, things are a lot more orderly, and we’re keen to see what’s on offer. What we find is a small, tidy, fast-food cafe with a fairly typical menu of burgers and variously souped-up fries – think cheese, bolognese, nachos, and so on. The small crew on hand are upbeat, smiling and doing a top-class job. Turnaround time – from ordering to eating – is about as brief as possible, and way shorter than some places we could mention. While I mostly disapprove of the many leaning towers of customised burgers I see splattered across social media these days, I choose not to deny Bennie when his eyes light up at the blackboard special of the Bulldog Burger ($14.90) of beef, fried chicken, double cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, mayo and BBQ sauce. In truth, while his Bulldog Burger is substantial, it still manages to stay within manageable proportions. Bennie’s unsure about the compatibility of the cow ‘n’ chook – but is thrilled with his burger nevertheless, and particularly the wonderfully crisp and big slab of chicken. He downs the lot.
BURGERNOMICS Address: 286 Ballarat Road, Braybrook My own Baconator ($10.90) with extra beef patty ($3), too, is excellent – though the extra patty is hardly warranted, given I don’t quite manage to finish eating my meal. The beef is plain but good, and all the trimmings and dressings are fine. We’ve become a little cynical about the use of brioche for burgers – or brioche-style buns – finding them often either dry or used as an excuse to go small. These are both fresh and of regular burger dimensions – yay! Our “beer-battered” fries ($3) are fine, but somewhat superfluous given the girth of our burgers. So … we’ve enjoyed a very good burger dinner. But as Bennie says: “They’re only burgers.” So we’re not going to claim “best in the west” status for the Burgernomics fare. But we are happy to include them among our short list of faves in the west, alongside Burger Business, Gemelli and Zigzag.

homas Carr College already has many runs on the board when it comes to the Performing Arts, but next year it’s set to take that to a new level. The College is on track to open a state-of-the-art Performing Arts Centre, says principal Dr Andrew Watson. “The centre will include a 500-seat auditorium which we’re looking forward to seeing filled with family and friends watching our students ply their craft,” he says. “It’s also going to be a space for the wider community to access, a place for alumni to gather and reconnect, and for local primary schools to use.” Dr Watson says the local Arts community will benefit greatly from access to the centre, providing participants with a wonderful space to create, perform and thrive. “Our College will be at the forefront of the Arts in the west. That’s thrilling and rewarding.” The latest technical production equipment and lighting and sound systems will support rehearsals, performances and learning opportunities, and dedicated drama and music rooms, along with a recording studio, will come to the fore. “The Performing Arts Centre will be home to the College’s best artistic talent,” Dr Watson declares. “Students can take advantage of exceptional teaching and learning spaces, enhancing their education in the Arts. Recitals, musical performances, theatrical productions, dramatisations and other
Our College will be at the forefront of the arts in the West

showcases will benefit from such an extraordinary space and facilities.” The College is highly regarded as an innovative educational community, with the latest technology, buildings and facilities. It offers an engaging curriculum designed to equip students with skills, attributes and knowledge for the future.
“Dedicated staff facilitate a powerful learning experience and nurture faith and positive relationships. The holistic educational approach provides our students with help developing independence, informed decision making, and respect for themselves and others.” The centre’s development, along with a

Lifestyle allure in Truganina P
eople often reach an age when mowing lawns has become an onerous chore, cleaning a big house once children have flown the nest has become even more tedious and there’s a yearning for simplicity and freedom. It’s about then that couples (or singles) make the Big Decision to move into a village, establishing community connection with mature, like-minded people who want life to swing in new directions. That’s where Palm Lake Resort in Truganina comes in. The Truganina village is all about lifestyle, whether packed with a smorgasbord of activities or in quiet contemplation in surroundings that connect with nature along Skeleton Creek – where beloved dogs can join in leisurely walks or gentle jogs. A fab choice of activities is right on your doorstep and new interests can be explored and expanded. Bocce, mini-golf or outdoor chess can prove to be as competitive or relaxed as you want – and can be a great way to entertain visiting grandchildren. A game of billiards, a poke around the library or tapping into free broadband access in the computer room are similarly leisurely options. Perhaps the art and craft room will encourage new hobbies or support existing skills, while watching a movie in the luxurious 49-seat theatre, with new friends alongside, is another fine idea. If something a bit more active is your cup of tea, there’s a fully equipped gym, an eight-rink undercover bowling green and clubhouse, and a workshop for tinkering

Students honour Saint’s vision Cross. Mr Kennedy, college principal, confidently claims: “Here at MacKillop, we strive to encourage individuals to reach their full potential as life-long learners by providing an innovative, challenging and collaborative learning and teaching environment in a rapidly evolving society.” He says that when the college community gathered in March this year, faith was evident and clearly demonstrated. “We commemorated the Eucharistic celebration and blessing of the Chapel of Saint Mary of the Cross on that day. The Chapel has been a labour of love for the college community and it’s quickly become the heart and soul of the school. “The Chapel enables us to nurture our education in faith. It has many significant features, including stained-glass windows designed by Josephite Sister Therese Quinn. They symbolise the school’s connection to the local area and people significant to the development of Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop’s spirituality.” Two bronze statues by Chris Sage feature prominently at the chapel. The ‘Triumphant Jesus’ hangs over the altar and is a focal point for all liturgy. In the forecourt, a bronze of Mary MacKillop engaging with
two playful children welcomes everyone. The Chapel precinct also includes an outdoor ‘Stations of the Cross’, which incorporate contemporary photography in an attempt to engage students in the message of Christ’s passion. In front of the Chapel, a prayer labyrinth has been designed to allow students and staff to reflect on the message of Jesus’ crucifixion and reinterpret it for themselves. MacKillop emphasises contemporary learning strategies, which are supported by extensive digital infrastructure, along with a unique science wing, a 400-seat auditorium, outstanding Sports Centre with gymnasium, an exceptional Creative Arts Centre, dedicated Trade Training Centre and Year 9 Campus. “We are continuing to grow in strength in the academic arena,” Mr Kennedy says. “Last year’s Dux of the College, Yazmin Velarde, was offered the Monash Scholarship of Excellence and Equity, as well as the Vice-Chancellor’s Access Scholarship at Monash University.” The College has an Open Day, between 10am and 1pm, on Sunday, November 6, with a final tour at 12.15pm – call the registrar for information.

he members of Quattro Dental are a rare mix, laying claim to a rare make-up of family service at their Hoppers Crossing clinic. Twin brothers, doctors Donald and Michael Chin, practise leading-edge dentistry at Quattro, alongside their wives, doctors Arlene Esmaquel and Cornelia (Angelica) Esmaquel-Chin … who are sisters. Donald says the close-knit family works very well together. “We never have to disagree about how we practise dentistry,” he says. “We all believe in the same principles and share a drive to stay on top of new techniques and up to date with new education. Dentistry is constantly evolving and improving,” Donald adds. “Quattro Dental addresses orthodontic issues using innovative appliances, and we’re focused on early intervention.” The doctors use the latest techniques and modern equipment to provide general dentistry, crown and bridgework, dentures, cosmetic dentistry, implants and emergency treatments. The clinic uses state-of-the-art Myobrace appliances to correct bad oral habits in growing children and improve dental as well as facial development. “Traditional braces are designed to move teeth whereas the Myobrace treatment system uses a different principle. It eliminates bad habits causing crooked teeth, so not only are teeth aligned but there’s better retention,” Donald says. “Myobrace is easily used and worn overnight and for an hour each day during

s Nick Christou set about creating The Park, he wanted his eatery and bar to be like an urban oasis where locals and others could gather in edgy, semi-industrial spaces to sample good food, a treasure trove of craft brews and entertainment. Nick ticked this off as mission accomplished a while ago, and The Park continues to deliver on all levels. First the food. The cooking style frequently salutes American barbecues and smoke-pits, with The Park’s custom-made Silver Creek American Offset smoke-pit adding its magic since earlier this year. Burgers, sliders, tacos, beer-battered fries (four salt choices), ribs, pizza and freshly shucked oysters are well represented and make matches in heaven with craft beers, ciders and house-made infusions. The pit-smoked pork belly, served with grilled cabbage, pickled beets and Carolina sauce, is a cracker dish among other larger offerings that range from duck leg confit and grass-fed rib eye to The Park parma. Tacos include the likes of smoked barbecue pork, carrot, red cabbage slaw and chipotle sauce; and shredded beef, caramelised onions and green salsa. A crème brulee and chocolate brownies with caramel and berries are indulgent finishers. Now the bar: there are more than 200 local and imported craft beers, 21 taps (some on constant rotation), a solid range of ciders, small-batch spirits and hand-picked wines.

arlo Tranchina and Andrew Street launched Essentially Pets in Werribee with a specific vision in mind – to give pet owners a fantastic level of service and to deliver genuine value for money on all products. That was 11 years ago. The know-how Carlo and Andrew have gained in more than 20 years in the pet supply market has served them well and helped make their gamble pay off. “We saw, before establishing Essentially Pets, that it was old-fashioned service, the real deal, that customers wanted,” Carlo says. “We also saw that some in the market promised a lot, but delivered less … that was never going to be our style.” “People love their pets and naturally want to give them the best,” Andrew says. “We listen to customers’ needs and hand-pick our products to match what they want. And we offer market-leading products, many unique and always top quality.” Carlo, Andrew and their team are so committed to customer satisfaction that they also design new products that are then manufactured. They are on top of all the overseas brands, with many unique items in store imported – and then offered at wholesale prices. “We believe in maintaining high standards of merchandising, too, so people coming in can see just what choice we offer. But the thing we enjoy most in this game is dealing with customers

Headstart to a life of learning I
t was 30 years ago that Omar Hallak founded Werribee Islamic College of Victoria, which became known as Al-Taqwa College in 2010. Built on 20.2 hectares, the school began with one portable classroom, 25 students and Mr Hallak’s mission to provide an Australian curriculum education for Muslim children in an Islamic environment. Al-Taqwa has grown to become the largest Islamic college in the state, with 2000-plus students filling classrooms from prep to year 12, and more than 230 staff. It’s a co-educational school, with separate buildings for girls and boys in senior years. A new building for the secondary girls will be ready for next year’s start and will comprise a large examination hall, canteen, library, specialty labs and classrooms. Provision of educational opportunities to students in a caring, safe and healthy learning environment is a key aim, Mr Hallak says. “We believe this promotes quality education, and Islamic values and beliefs are taught and upheld through all school years,” the principal says. “And we nurture our students to be lifelong learners and proud Australian Muslim citizens of tomorrow.” He and his staff also want to prepare students for leadership in a global society. “We offer year 9 and 10 students an annual exchange program with our sister school, Al-Taqwa College YIISI, Sentul campus in Indonesia. This is a co-educational college, started in 2008,

This experience allows them to develop into confident, independent young adults.” Next year, the college is running a Select Entry Enrichment Program, with the top three students in each secondary year level receiving a 100 per cent scholarship, free tuition during VCE years and a $2000 bonus towards university fees. Al-Taqwa has an extracurricular program and teaches Islamic studies, and Arabic, Chinese and Indonesian languages – as well as performing Umra. It draws students from a diverse cultural background, with 73 nations from all parts of the world represented. Al-Taqwa College, 201 Sayers Road, Truganina.

New hospital a boon for Werribee L
ast year, St Vincent’s Private Hospital in Melbourne provided care for nearly 5000 Wyndham residents – those are the kind of figures behind the establishment of a new private hospital in Werribee, flagged to open mid-2017. St Vincent’s obstetrician and gynaecologist Boski Shah says there’s unprecedented demand in the area for maternity services, oncology and aged care. “Nearly 200 new residents move into Wyndham every week and 12 babies are born every day,” Dr Shah says. “If anyone wants to access private care, it requires travel and being away from home and support networks to get a private maternity service. “We’re delighted that Werribee will have the first St Vincent’s Private in Melbourne’s western region. The hospital will have four delivery suites and a special care nursery, which will be a boon for locals as waiting times at the public hospital can be quite lengthy.” Dr Shah has extensive experience in complicated deliveries and gynaecological surgeries. Proficient in English, Hindi and Gujarati, she has a particular interest in difficult communications in obstetrics and gynaecology and has been involved in research on underwater births. Along with the obstetrics and gynaecology fields, services available in the 112-bed private hospital will include orthopaedic; cardiology; ear, nose and throat; plastic and reconstructive surgery; oncology; general surgery; and rehabilitation.
Facilities will include six operating theatres, a day procedure unit and a cardiac catheter laboratory. St Vincent’s has been providing health care in Australia for more than 155 years. It has a long tradition of reaching out to all in need of care, especially in the service of the poor and vulnerable. The work of St Vincent’s includes providing spiritual, physical and emotional support – not just within the hospital community, but to local communities and beyond.

All hands on deck for road blitz V
ictoria Police will be out in force over Melbourne Cup weekend, with Operation Furlong running from Friday, October 28, until Tuesday, November 1. Road policing advisor Senior Sergeant Ross Burbidge said Operation Furlong would be conducted throughout Victoria in all police areas over the five days, using all available personnel from local highway patrol units, general duties police and other units. The major focus for the operation will be speed, fatigue, impaired driving (drug and alcohol), mobile phone offences and seatbelt compliance. Motorists will be aware of police units in marked and unmarked vehicles targeting major arterial roads during this holiday weekend. Traffic camera vehicles will also be rostered on roads known for high collision rates. The aim, in addition to detecting offences, is to provide a highly visible and mobile police presence to reinforce positive driving behaviour and reduce accidents. “It has been demonstrated time after time,” Senior Sergeant Burbidge says, “that speed is a contributing factor in most road crashes … stay within the speed limit and drive to suit the conditions.” Speeding affects both the risk of a crash and the severity of injuries sustained when a crash does happen. RoadSafe Westgate Community Road Safety Council chairman Jim Giddings says road trauma isn’t just about the people who die.

Police will be out in force for the Melbourne Cup long weekend Sergeant Marty Wallace and Leading Senior Constable Ray Schembri from Westgate Highway Patrol.
“It’s about the enormous impact on the community, from the family members and emergency services workers, who have to deal with these tragedies on a daily basis, to the police who have to deliver the devastating news to loved ones,” Mr Giddings says. Drivers are being urged to plan their trips, be patient and ensure they have frequent breaks when driving long distances.
Mr Giddings said holiday driving presents special challenges so motorists should drive in the hours they are normally awake, take regular breaks to reduce fatigue and allow extra space between vehicles. They need to adapt to the conditions of the road – the onus is always on drivers to suit the conditions they are facing, including road quality. “If you plan to have a drink, then plan

With more than 10 years’ industry experience and after working together at Australian Laser & Skin Clinics, they knew they wanted to launch their own clinic – under the same umbrella. But Kellie says they also wanted their place to be about more than just beauty treatments for vanity’s sake. “Growing up, I suffered severe skin problems which were corrected after proper treatment,” she says. “My main focus was, and is, to help people.” Australian Laser & Skin Clinics was established more than 18 years ago and now has nine clinics across Melbourne. Ebony says they took their time finding just the right place to provide their clients with their well-developed skill sets and fantastic products. “Opening in Williamstown in July this year was the culmination of a long-held dream,” she says. “Now we can give our clients – and we both have lots of them – professional, certified treatments for a whole range of skin conditions. Seeing smiles on faces and witnessing massive boosts in self-confidence is the best. “To be able to work with my best friend every day in an industry we’re both passionate about is priceless. We have friends with high-paying jobs who count the minutes until they get home, but for us it’s an adventure with shared goals.” Excessive facial and other unwanted hair growth is a problem many experience.

Kellie has had much success with treating this. “I’ve been able to help women who suffer from polycystic ovarian syndrome which causes this very problem. And we work with a lot of people from the transgender community and within other cultures who can struggle in dealing with unwanted hair. It’s a privilege to help and we treat them with the utmost respect and consideration.” The clinic offers a full menu of advanced skin treatments, employing certified medical-grade equipment and certified laser technicians and dermal clinicians. Treatments include dermal fillers and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) – a scientific breakthrough in anti-ageing and skin regeneration – to wrinkle injections, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, skin needling and even dental whitening.

Nurtured for the life ahead I
t’s been 10 years this month since the launch of Wyndham’s first private, home-based family day care service, and it came about through a combination of serendipity and innovative thinking. Gail Sinopoli had been working as a supervisor for the family day care services of Wyndham City Council when the council stopped operating the service that she thought was still much-needed. “Soon after, while I was actually overseas on a short holiday, I saw that one door had closed but another was opening,” Gail recalls. “I gathered all the educators I’d worked with who were also ‘out of business’ and invited them to join what would come to be known as VIP Family Day Care.” Gail had also been the day care supervisor at Hobsons Bay City Council as well as a social worker at Footscray council. She dug into her big bag of experience and skills in establishing the centre. “I set up processes similar to those of the councils, and our aim was to deliver consistent excellence in meeting the childcare needs of locals, in safe, nurturing, educational environments,” she says. “We now have more than 600 happy families and more than 80 educators (each with a Diploma in Childcare Education) working at VIP. “In the last audit, we were rated as Exceeding National Quality Standards and now, under the directorship of my daughter Angela [Buttigieg], we’re shooting for the rarely bestowed highest possible accreditation.” The service has flexible care options for

Cite, XPress and XTreme are famous names at Good News Lutheran College in Tarneit. The names featured in Bendigo in August, and will pop up again in Maryborough in November. College Principal Simon Hughes explains: “These are the names of the College’s bike teams, which competed for the first time at the HPV [human-powered vehicle] Bendigo Grand Prix. They were among about 80 teams from all over the state who were racing in both human-powered and energy-powered vehicles. “Our College is very supportive of sporting endeavour across many fields, but we also look to prepare students for the wider world, giving them the chance to learn about teamwork, leadership and respect. The HPV event was fun for everyone involved, but teamwork and interpersonal skills and respect for those around them were also tested and honed. “It’s part of an holistic approach to education adopted by highly dedicated staff and learning is imparted in a faith-based environment, with Christian-based studies, chapel attendance and well-being sessions.” Last year, the College offered Year 11 and full VCE curricula for the first time and now has approximately 800 P-12 students. Science and Technology blocks were recently completed and now join a Gymnasium, Design and Visual Art rooms, a modern Food Technology building, and a Materials Technology (including wood and metal work) facility.

rank Raso loves his feel-good industry. He can’t see himself doing anything else. As co-owner of Mega Pet Warehouse, Frank gets to cuddle lots of his customers’ new baby pets. “We all [staff] love meeting and cuddling a puppy, kitten or baby rabbit,” he says. “If we’ve had an especially hectic day, there’s nothing like taking time out to pat or cuddle an animal. They bring out the best in us; their simple lives simplify our own.” Frank is an animal lover from way back. It’s what drew him to setting up the first Mega Pet Warehouse in 2004, riding the new wave of large warehouse retailing. “The other owners and I felt that pets needed better products than what the supermarkets offered. We wanted it to be big in scope and a pet-friendly environment where animals felt as at home and welcome as our customers. We also wanted it to be a place for pet owners to get friendly, knowledgeable advice, from nutrition and flea and worming products to the best toy or bed for a pet; hessian, if it’s a chewer, is the answer.” Frank and his colleagues clearly found the concept a good fit in the market because they now own and operate four stores – in Epping, Hoppers Crossing, Ringwood and Cheltenham – and carry more than 9000 products on their shelves. As strong proponents of highest-standard animal welfare, the owners and staff agree that, except for fish, no pets are “sold”. “We believe pets don’t belong in shops, nor should they be an impulse buy,” says
Hoppers Crossing store manager Vanessa Riches. “We’re happy to recommend rescue centres or registered breeders.” With great specials on offer in store, now is a great time to pop a lead on your pooch and head to Mega Pet to check it out. Mega Pet Warehouse, 33-39 Heaths Road, Hoppers Crossing. Opens 9am-5.30pm Monday-Wednesday, 9am-6pm Thursday-Friday, 9am-5pm Saturday, and 10am-5pm Sunday. Inquiries: 9748 5377 or www.megapet.com.au

Get your fix of high fashion and high tea The inaugural Ladies Day at Werribee Races, to be staged as Werribee Racing Club’s first race meeting for the season, will be held on Tuesday, November 29, and promises to be a gorgeous day out, according to Tonia Tribe, vice-chairperson of the Wyndham Business & Tourism Association. Tonia says the idea behind the day is to give local ladies (and gentlemen) a day to dress up in race day finery, enjoy an elegant lunch and have a relaxed glass of bubbly. “Ladies love a chance to get all dressed up,” Tonia says, “and a race meeting is one of those occasions where we get to do just that, and show off our fashion style. “Ladies Day, which starts at noon, will see guests greeted with a glass of bubbly in the members’ dining room, which will then be followed by a delicious two course luncheon for about 150 guests. The menu will draw on fresh spring flavours such as salmon or a mushroom risotto. “Later in the day, we’re putting on a high tea-style dessert treat, with delicious dessert canapés and tea or coffee.” Tickets are $79 and include parking in the members car park, racetrack entry and a race book, and there are prizes to be won under several fashion categories. The event’s major sponsor is Fifth Element Day Spa, with Tonia T Boutique, Salon Vogue and Mantello Lawyers the minor sponsors. Tonia says Watton Street has many vibrant places to shop for something special at race time, and there are many fabulous places to get beauty treatments to finish off your special look. Tonia believes you can’t go wrong with a classic black-and-white number, accessorised with a pop of colour, such as a bag or the latest headband in bright yellow. “This is a striking look for any woman and is guaranteed to present a sophisticated and classy image.” “Michelle Pearce and her staff at Fifth Element Day Spa, can give ladies a wonderfully relaxing facial or a waxing session to have them looking and feeling great,” she says. “Salon Vogue’s team can create hairstyles to have you looking tip-top and they can work with you to prfectly match your style with a fascinator or headband. And there are great shoe shops to purchase a pair of stylish – but comfy – shoes to finish off any race-day outfit. 12327746-CG43-16
“All local stores are known for their personal touch, unique products and knowing our regulars – and we love that.” To purchase tickets and for further information, call Werribee Racing Club on 9741 1800.

Be Fire Ready. THE REASONS ARE BLACK AND WHITE.
Fire Action Week The Right Time To Prepare
Message from the Premier This summer is forecast to be a dangerous fire season. Fire Action Week is the time for all Victorians to get ready for the heat ahead. Many Victorians have been battling persistent rain and rising flood waters. This rainfall has increased growth of vegetation in forested, bush and grassfire areas across the state. As summer intensifies, these regions will dry out quickly, increasing the risk of uncontrollable fires, especially over Christmas and summer holidays. Emergency services are working with communities, businesses, councils and government to reduce risks in your area, while ensuring resources are in place to respond to all emergencies. However, it is up to you to understand the risks in your area, monitor conditions and take responsibility for your own safety and the safety of your household. Be prepared before summer so you know what to do when a fire starts.
Talk to your family and friends about how you’ll know when to leave, and where to go to stay safe. Leaving early means leaving before a fire starts – not when you can see flames or smell smoke. Leaving early means avoiding panic, and not making wrong decisions that could be dire. Use Fire Action Week to prepare your home and property, especially if you live in bush and grassfire prone areas. If you take the right steps now, your decisions in an emergency will be easier and clearer. • Talk to your household and neighbours about what you’ll do on high risk days, and have a plan if fire threatens you and your home this summer • Check fire danger ratings daily at emergency.vic.gov.au to find out how dangerous a fire would be if one started, and monitor warnings, especially when the fire danger rating is severe, extreme or code red • Pack an emergency kit of essentials
The Hon Daniel Andrews MP Premier of Victoria
1. Plan what you’ll do in the event of a fire, talk to your household and know where to access information on high risk days. 2. Keep grass short. Fire can ignite and travel quickly through long grass. 3. Get rid of dry grass, leaves, twigs and loose bark around your home. 4. Remove or prune shrubs near windows and well away from branches of mature trees. 5. Cut back overhanging tree branches close to property – no branches within 10 metres. 6. Keep gutters and roof areas clear of leaf litter (if you are physically able to). 7. Remove all materials from around the home that could burn, such as boxes, furniture and woodpiles.

Darren was an absolute pleasure to deal with. With his years of local market knowledge and very high credibility amongst the industry it made our decision to have him represent our property a no brainier. He worked tirelessly to ensure that our tenant’s were well informed of Open Inspections and worked very closely with us to ensure that we got the best possible outcome for the sale of our property. His honesty was very much welcomed and would not hesitate to recommended to family and friends in which we already have started to do. - 21 Sherlock Avenue Tarneit
Our experience was nothing but positive. Clearly a very skilled and experienced negotiator, we have no doubt it was David’s expertise that ensured we maximised our sale price. He had a clear strategy from the outset, which ultimately achieved the results we were after. David was very attentive and proactive, and an excellent communicator he continually kept us informed and updated throughout the sale process, and was always contactable. He was prompt, efficient and committed every step of the way (even throughout an unforeseen medical emergency - he was contacting us from his hospital bed!) We could not recommend David enough and are very grateful to him and his team for looking after us and making the sale of our property a seamless and stress free process. - 1/10 Yale Court, Truganina
After many years of looking for a good agent - thank god I found Richard. I’m so thrilled to have my house sold in such a quick turnaround time and at a fair market price. Richard was working around the clock to ensure he was on top of all the leads, and whilst I was nervous about which agent to go with, Richard and the team at Greg Hocking proved they knew what they did, are good at it and it was good to see people passionate about their roles in the business. Thanks for helping me out guys, I really appreciate it! -10 Romek Way Truganina

SPORT Centurion revels in ‘incredible’ triple ton Dean Taylor had never scored a hundred in nearly 200 games and 20 years at Werribee Centrals. Last week, he scored a triple century and almost made it to 400. The opener and captain of the Centurions B-grade matting side blasted his way into the club record books with a mammoth 381, this season’s highest individual score in club cricket so far. Taking on Melton Centrals, Taylor opened the batting with rising junior Noah Bradford (34). He said that while he wasn’t swinging for the fences, the runs flowed quickly from the start of the day. “I think after 14 overs I had 120, so everything just clicked at the start,” Taylor said. “We just set ourselves to have a 35-run opening partnership … we managed to do that
without trying to hit the ball that hard and it all just flowed from there.” Amazingly, Taylor had only once previously made it into the 90s, with the overwhelming feeling being one of relief on making it to his maiden century early in the day. “It was unbelievable really,” he said. “We’d talked about it over the years – that I’d played so long and never hit 100. I had a few 50s, but I didn’t think it would ever happen for me. “It was a pretty amazing feeling – then to go on with it was just incredible.” At the final drinks break, he was alerted to the potential for a piece of club history with Michael Sammut’s club record of 351 (set last season) in sight. “The club president told me to see if I could break the record – I was able to do that soon after drinks,” Taylor said. “By the end of it, I was spent. It was very taxing on the body.”
While the individual glory was a nice perk, Taylor said he took more joy out of seeing two of the club’s juniors step up and help him along the way. His 267-run opening stand with Bradford was followed by a 229-run partnership with Zak Johnson (68no), both of them under-17 players at the club. “They both played a massive role in those partnerships,” Taylor said. “I was stoked for the two young boys – we haven’t had juniors at the club for a few years, so to help those boys along made me more happy than my own score.” And any regrets about missing a rare quadruple ton? “No regrets whatsoever,” he said. “You joke with your mates about making a ton, so to make that score is just ridiculous really.” Ewen McRae
IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ Cricket
is a most frustrating game, but not for the same reasons as, say, golf. Golf is a game in which you think you are improving and then, bang, you are playing worse than ever. The frustration with cricket is the weather. In recent weeks, it has played havoc with the start of the season. Most of the white-flannelled brigade love a hot, sticky day in the mid-30s, with just a breath of wind to make it comfortable. At this stage, outdoor training sessions and games have been like hens’ teeth. Preparation of wickets is another factor that will come into play in the next few weeks. The weather gods have not been kind and many competitions have already re-adjusted fixtures to make sure of a balanced season between white ball and red ball versions of the game. The only joy from this is listening to batsmen and bowlers debating who is more affected.

are plenty of sports books – but not that many aimed at the eight to 13 year olds. Tony Wilson, who is well known in Melbourne as a speaker, writer, broadcaster and corporate MC, has just released the first half of a four-part series called The Selwood Boys. Tony sat down with the four famous football brothers – Troy, Adam, Joel and Scott – and discussed their childhood. He has unearthed a goldmine of great true stories. Battle Royale and The Miracle Goal hit book shelves this week. They may be just what is needed to get your children reading during the Christmas holidays.

By Ewen McRae In miserable conditions, Werribee Centrals fell to a crushing Victorian Turf Cricket Association loss on Saturday at the hands of Craigieburn. Resuming the second day of their north-west A1 match on 0-2 in pursuit of the visitors’ 206, the Centurions failed to master the weather as they were skittled for 73 in their first innings. They then faced the ignominy of following on, and ended the match on 3-74. With wintery conditions forcing most VTCA games to be called off, Centrals captain Luke Allister said both sides were always keen to play out the match. “We were down at the ground at 8am trying to soak up the water on the side of the square and get the ground ready to play,” Allister said.
“It took a bit of work just to get it ready to play after the rain on Friday night, but we got on and probably only had a couple of breaks with rain during the day … quick ones since the rain was moving so quickly. I’m glad we played.” Allister described the pitch as “not underdone, but certainly a bit sticky” and it showed in the Centurions’ first innings – they lost 8-23 at one stage to hand the visitors first-innings points. Agha Adeel was forced to bat with a runner after tearing a hamstring bowling the previous week, and with a number of young players in the side, the inexperience showed in the collapse. Allister, who lead from the front with 22, said that despite the poor showing on the scoreboard, there were positives. “The ball was hooping around and they [Craigieburn] bowled in good areas to make
it tough for us,” he said. “We had a couple of kids at 10 and 11 who batted really well with me at the end. Joel Russell held up an end for 15 overs. “Blake Taylor finished not out and batted time for a bit, too, which showed some good signs for the young fellas.” While they were sent back in, conditions improved and the batting reflected that as Daniel Williams (37no) and Waqar Shah (21) made good starts at the top of the order in promising signs for the rest of the season. “It’s pretty much a brand new senior team for us this year,” Allister said. “I think there’s some good signs early in the season. “We’ll have to wait and see how we gel over the season, but I’m pretty happy with where we’re at … this game is hard to go by given the conditions.”

silly season in local footy might not be so frantic this year, with a one-month transfer window opening from November 1. I welcome it and hope it will stop the last-minute clearances in the final days leading up to round one, causing league and club administrators to reach for the painkillers. It also should stop most of the ridiculous rumours that permeate the footy world at this time of the year. I can imagine it will be good for clubs to get the players signed and sealed before pre-season training. Lots of players have used the uncertainty as an excuse to avoid anything too strenuous pre-Christmas, but those days may be gone. It’s good to see Caroline Springs busy preparing for its division 1 debut by signing former juniors Jayke Ewer (Deer Park) and Mitch Bongiovanni (St Albans) and enticing Keenan O’Shea from St Albans. I hear more big names are on the way for the Lakers.

Giants prosper as others get blown away Werribee took full advantage of the effects of crazy weekend weather to make up some ground on the top sides in Vic Summer League division 2 baseball, moving up to second on the table. With other top sides such as Sunshine, Doncaster and Ballarat having their Saturday games called off, Werribee used its Sunday match with Port Melbourne to full effect to run away with a 12-4 victory. Despite the heavy rain in the lead-up, the Port Melbourne diamond was in fantastic condition, with Werribee centre-fielder Ryan Balzer saying the side knew there was an opportunity at hand. “It’s always nice to get a win when so many sides don’t get on the park,” he said. After a slow start it was good to get a win.” Trent Evins started on the mound for the Giants, yet while Port Melbourne grabbed a couple of early runs, the visitors always felt in control on the match. Werribee hit back with a run of its own in the first, and by the fourth inning had built a two-run lead it would not relinquish. Werribee scored a couple of runs an innings in the second half of the match, while also limiting the impact of the home side’s hitters.
Evins threw the first seven innings before being relieved by John Curnow for the final two to close out the match and secure the win for the Giants. Balzer said that overall it was a good performance from his side. “We let them into the game early with a couple of runs, which was disappointing, but we always felt like we would win,” he said. “It was another step in the right direction for us … while it’s obviously still early in the season, I think we are better placed than we were at this point last season. “That goes for the whole club, too. The twos, threes and fours are all performing well, which is a good sign for the depth at the club. I think it shows to other clubs that we’re ready to go up to division 1 soon.” Ewen McRae

Falcons relish free rein By Ewen McRae For Wyndhamvale footballers, there will be no shock about getting a handle on their new senior coach for next season – long-time assistant Daniel Bunworth is stepping into the role. After serving as a senior assistant at the Falcons for the past six years, Bunworth has signed on as senior coach for the next two seasons and says he is ready to lead the club into another WRFL division 1 season. “I wanted to keep the club going in the strong direction that we’ve been going for the past few years, so stepping up to a senior coach role made sense,” Bunworth said. “I’m pretty excited that next season we can keep moving on the upward curve. We’re well set up for the future.” Wyndhamvale is one of the big winners out of the WRFL restructure, with the move towards a 10-team division 1 meaning the Falcons avoid relegation despite finishing on the bottom of the 2016 ladder. Bunworth, who will continue playing for the Falcons, said the chance to have another crack at division 1 was an exciting challenge for his side. “We’re one of the first teams in a long time that hasn’t been relegated after finishing on the bottom, so I feel like we’ve got a bit of a free rein and a free crack at it to see where we can get to next season,” he said. “We’ve got a pretty young list … I think we blooded about seven guys under 20 years old last season, so they’ve had a taste of it and now know the expectations of what it takes to play at that level.” The Falcons have been busy on the recruiting front in the off season, with a number of new signings announced in recent weeks. Midfielders Daniel Cross, Majok Ngong, Brodie Meadows and Tito Nyawela have all been named, along with key defender Mitch Gough, ruckman Anthony Daw and key position player Bol Kalang. Ngong, Meadows, Daw, Gough and Nyawela are all former players at the Falcons, with Bunworth saying they all bring something different and exciting to his developing group. “We’ve added some size and speed, I guess, and some extra depth through the midfield, which we probably lacked a bit at times last season,” he said. “It’ll be exciting to see some of the guys who played juniors with us return – guys like Anthony Daw, who’s playing in the Werribee development league. We’re excited to see what he can do … 100 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ OCTOBER 26, 2016
Relegation avoided in WRFL shuffle The Western Region Football League has restructured all three grades for the 2017 season, with no sides relegated following last season. The restructure sees Caroline Springs enter division one and Newport joining division two, meaning the top division has 10 sides, with seven in division 2 and eight in division 3. The move comes after consultation with all clubs on the best way forward for the competition and means division 2 will be the only grade to feature a bye in 2017. Wyndhamvale and West Footscray would have been relegated from divisions 1 and 2 respectively, but receive reprieves under the restructure. New Wyndhamvale coach Daniel Bunworth said the changes had been flagged with clubs at the start of the 2016 season. “We had a pretty good idea that this is what they were going to do,” he said. “It works out well for us because we get to stay up now.” The WRFL has also reduced the player points cap for sides to 45 (down from 48) and set salary caps for the three grades. Division 1 clubs will have a salary cap of $225,000, division 2 $100,000 and division 3 $50,000. The division 1 cap is in line with limits set by the Northern and Eastern Football Leagues, while the Essendon District Football League has set its division 1 cap at $250,000.
Wet weekend a spoil-sport Wyndhamvale stalwart Daniel Bunworth is taking charge of the Falcons as senior coach for 2017. (Damjan Janevski)
“Tito Nyawela is coming off a fantastic season for Werribee Centrals, so we’re excited by what he can bring. “Bol Kalang is one of the better known taller fellas in the region – he’ll bring a lot of leadership and skill to the group.
“All I can ask of the group is to get the most out of themselves over pre-season, give their all and that should see us continue to improve throughout the season.” Wyndhamvale starts its pre-season on November 16.
Wild weather played havoc with weekend sport. With rain falling from Friday afternoon and through much of Saturday, sub-district cricket was cancelled, while most VTCA matches also failed to get a result. Sub-district matches will now be played as one-day fixtures this weekend. Saturday baseball and bowls were also hit, with most matches called a draw or moved to reserve days later in the season.
