Our parks are up for debate The activities that are currently available to users of Victoria’s national parks are up for debate following a twoyear investigation from the Victorian Environmental Assessment Council (VEAC) into public land.

In a detailed report, VEAC has carried out a careful investigation of cultural and natural values, recreational activities and resource use on public land in central west Victoria.

A Shepparton icon saved from closing its doors

By Danielle Cox IF you’ve lived in Shepparton or frequented the area over the last 20 years, you will have become quite familiar with the huge, red letters for Dimmey’s on High Street.

From clothing and homewares, to rugs and giftware, Dimmey’s has been a one-stop-shop for affordable products in Shepparton

since before I was even born.

Recently, with the increase of online shopping and less and less people frequenting the Shepparton CBD for their shopping, Dimmey’s Shepparton franchisee’s Brian and Sharon Baxter decided it was time to close up and move on.

CR EAT I V I T Y has helped facilitate a sense of community amongst the ladies at Shepparton’s Lifestyle Communities, who have been hard at work painting and crafting in preparation of a selection of their pieces exhibiting in Melbourne this month.

The group of about 20 meets up weekly to paint, relax and enjoy each other’s company. There’s a sense of camaraderie in the painting space with constant words of encouragement and fresh ideas bounced around the spritely group. A few members of the group are seasoned painters but most are just excited to be trying something new.

Recently, the group have been hard at work creating pieces to be judged for the inaugural Simpson Arts Prize in Melbourne. The only requirement for the competition was that their painting pertained to facets of life at Lifestyle Communities.

So off they went; painting, sketching, cartooning, crafting, sewing and creating various artworks reflective of life out at the community.

Some chose to depict a particular scene at Lifestyle, such as Margaret Lake’s gorgeous watercolour painting ‘Autumn.’

The piece, which depicts the archway near the Community Hub draped in the stunning colours of autumn leaves, is one of eight winning artworks to be taken to Melbourne.

CREATIVE CREW… From left, Lifestyle Communities artists and residents, Lorraine Twomey, Cathy van den Hurk, Marcia Grieg, Margaret Lake and Helen McKenzie in their painting studio. Photo: Ash Beks.

The overall winning piece from the local exhibitions is a collaborative cartoon between several members of community art group featuring dozens of images showcasing the different leisure and activities available at Lifestyle: croquet, tennis, line dancing, billiards, happy hour cocktails, Zumba, swimming… the list goes on!

Art group coordinator and Lifestyle Communities resident, Marcia Grieg said creativity helps facilitate a sense of freedom amongst participants.

“Many of these ladies have never painted before and it’s nice for them to step out of their comfort zone and be involved in something social and creative,” she said.

“We all have fun together participating as a group and contributing back to the community. We are also hard at work creating pieces that will be going in the forthcoming Shepparton Agricultural Show.”

The eight pieces of art from Lifestyle Communities are going in the draw to win a top prize of $1000, to be judged by a panel that includes Channel Nine weather

Grants available to help improve rural roads TRAGICALLY, country people die on country roads. Recently, road safety experts and local government and community leaders have been looking at the reasons behind the disproportionate number of deaths on country roads.

To try and help lower this startling statistic, the Transport Accident Commission (TAC) will give more than $339,000 to 15 community projects focussed on making Victoria’s roads safer.

The grants program provides funding to projects developed and implemented by not-for-profit community groups and local councils across Australia.

TAC road safety lead director, Samantha Cockfield said working with local community groups is crucial to making Victoria’s roads safer.

“This grants program works with local community groups to empower them to proactively address road safety concerns in their area,” Ms Cockfield said.

“Road safety is a shared responsibility and local community groups play a pivotal role in identifying areas that require improvement. Communities often have particular road safety needs and local community groups are well placed to identify these specific problems and to implement solutions.”

Community groups and local councils with projects that aim to improve road safety for local residents can apply for grants of up to $30,000 for projects aimed at addressing specific issues in their local area.

The grants program is part of the TAC’s Towards Zero Action Plan, which aims to reach zero deaths and serious injuries on Victoria’s roads.

Information on the grant program, including guidelines and how to apply for future rounds can be found at www.tac.vic.gov. au/about-the-tac/grants/community-road-sfatey-grants

Cadets taking to the sky IF your child has been dreaming of flying a plane or even building aircrafts but thought it was too difficult, now is the perfect time to make their dream come true. With the Australian Air Force Cadets (AAFC) 419 Squadron based right here in Shepparton, it gives local kids the opportunity to take to the skies, and provides training and pathways into aviation and the Air Force.

T h e A A F C i s a yo u t h o r i e nt e d organisation that is administered and actively supported by the Royal Australian Air Force. The AAFC will teach valuable life skills and will help develop qualities such as leadership, confidence, teamwork and communication.

Some activities undertaken by the AAFC include flying, fieldcraft, adventure training, firearms safety training, drill and ceremonial, ser vice k nowledge, aeromodelling, navigation and gliding. Next year will see the inclusion of drones and the

STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) program as well.

Cadent sergeant, Chloe Schwarz has already been up in the air and flown solo at 17 years of age and with only 10 hours of flight training needed.

“I was able to get a scholarship through the Air Force which allowed me to fly.”

Chloe said.

“As a cadet, I’ve been able to also visit Air Force bases across the state and I’m hoping to pursue a career in aviation.”

Leading cadet, Gus Thiel has wanted to join the AAFC for most of his life.

“It gives me a pathway into the Air Force without having to go and study elsewhere.”

The AAFC 419 Squadron will open the gates this Friday, August 30 from 6:30pm until 8:30pm at the Somme Barracks, 110 Sobraon Street, Shepparton for an information night. Both parents and kids aged 12 to 15 interested in becoming a cadet

KIALLA’S St Anne’s College has become the first secondary school in the region to sign on to Goulburn Valley Water’s Water Only program, committing to choose tap water as their drink of choice during school hours.

The school celebrated becoming Water Only with a special education session last Thursday, August 15, hosted by Goulburn Valley Water, with different activities and games highlighting the importance of water for our bodies and choosing water over sugary drinks.

St Anne’s College principal, Dom Poppa said becoming a Water Only school was an easy decision that had overwhelming support from parents as well.

“It’s really about getting the kids into good

habits while they’re young, and teaching them about the benefits of water and staying hydrated.”

“These kids are the future, so if we start teaching them these small but important habits now, they’ll be able to carry this into their adult lives and onto their children as well.”

The activities ranged from learning how much sugar is in popular drinks, the cost of water and even discussions about the environment.

Goulburn Valley Water has implemented their Water Only program in 68 primary schools around the region, covering kindergartens and workplaces as well.

Have your say on Shepparton’s heritage Greater Shepparton is lucky to be surrounded by a wide variety of cultural heritage sites of local, regional and state significance, owing to our richly layered history, which dates back over 40,000 years.

Today, these heritage places exist within a dynamic and evolving context of our past, connecting the community and telling the story of our municipality.

To ensure the remaining heritage of our region is protected, Greater Shepparton City Council is calling for feedback on the draft 2019 Greater Shepparton Heritage Strategy.

Council will be accepting feedback on the plan until Monday, August 26, 2019.

Greater Shepparton Cit y Council Mayor, Cr Kim O’Keeffe said, “The draft

Keeping our rivers healthy Flows in the Goulburn River have reduced to around 1000ML/day now that the winter environmental flow has finished. The winter environmental flow was important as it deposited seed and sediment on the banks. During spring these seeds will spread and grow, helping stabilise the banks and providing valuable food and shelter for fish, water bugs and other wildlife. Subject to availability, planning is under way to deliver more water for the environment in late September to help this process. In the meantime, river levels will continue to fluctuate due to inflows and run-off from tributaries, such as Seven Creeks, after rain.

Benefits of water for the environment: Prompt native fish to move and breed

Boost recreational fishing opportunities

Create opportunities for tourism

Provide shelter and food for fish, birds, water bugs and other native animals

Support vegetation growth that helps stabilise the river bank

Improve water quality

Delivering water for the environment is only one way of protecting and improving rivers and wetlands.

Fencing and revegetation, erosion control, pest control, returning logs to rivers for fish and bug habitat (re-snagging), and installation of fishways to allow fish to pass through weirs also help.

Demystifying the NDIS THE rollout and introduction of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in July 2016 has been an exciting development for many. The new scheme gives people a lot more choice and control over supports they receive and bringing them a step closer to living the life they want.

However, due to the fact that the new scheme is designed to meet so many diverse needs, it’s pretty complicated and sometimes difficult to understand.

To help understand the ins and outs of the scheme, a series of free information sessions look set to demystify the NDIS will take place in Shepparton for people with disability and their families.

The day will feature three sessions – preparing for the NDIS, bringing your NDIS plan to life and a Q&A panel.

There are no costs involved to attend the session, although people are encouraged to register online to avoid d isappoi nt ment. T he event will take place at Riverlinks Eastbank, 70 Welsford Street, Shepparton on Tuesday, August 27.

A big help towards Shepparton’s homelessness crisis OVER recent months, the community in Shepparton has been doing their part in the fight against homelessness within our town.

Leading the way is none other than Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor, Cr Kim O’Keeffe and Lutfiyes Shish Kebab owner, Azem Elmaz, who have both gone out of their way in campaigning an important cause to put an end to homelessness in Shepparton.

When brought to Kiwanis Mooroopna president, Tony Nappa’s attention, the club immediately wanted to help. Last Wednesday, on behalf of the club, Tony presented a giant $1000 cheque to Cr Kim O’Keeffe and Azem Elmaz to help their cause.

Tony said, “When we heard about this cause, our first thought was ‘what can we do to help?’”

“We are always doing what we can to help the kids and this is no different. There are families and kids out there that don’t have

a place to call home, and that is just awful. We couldn’t just sit by and not do anything.”

Cr Kim O’Keeffe has seen an influx of community support since this campaign began, including people calling up and asking how they can help or where they can volunteer, and was extremely grateful for all the support and generous donations.

“We’ve raised over $7000 so far, which is amazing. All of these proceeds are going into helping the homeless people in Shepparton through Foodshare, The Salvation Army and other great services,” Cr Kim O’Keeffe said.

“It’s great to see this on so many people’s radar now, but that doesn’t mean we’re even close to fixing it. We’ve still got a long way to go, and now that we’re making progress I hope we can see this until the end.”

Shepparton sixth cheapest regional town for fuel Contrary to popular opinion, recent research from RACV reveals that regional petrol prices are always dearer than in the city, with Shepparton the sixth cheapest regional town to refuel.

The research investigated the average petrol prices across Melbourne and regional Victoria in 2018/19, pinpointing some of the cheapest and most expensive suburbs and towns across the state.

Of the 27 regional towns surveyed, nine were cheaper than Melbourne’s average price of $1.413 per litre of unleaded fuel over the last financial year.

With an average cost of $1.394 per litre, Shepparton has placed sixth overall in terms of average pricing. The cheapest regional town surveyed in Victoria was Benalla, with an average cost of $1.317 per litre.

RACV vehicle engineering manager, Michael Case said competitive local pricing helps keep the average price for fuel down.

“In one word its competition: in two words, it’s local competition,” Mr Case said.

“In highly competitive rural areas, when one petrol retailer cuts their prices, other local competitors follow.”

However, Mr Case said it’s not always safe to assume country towns are cheaper than metropolitan areas. The most expensive places to buy petrol in RACV’s 2018/19 survey were Ararat ($1.509 per litre), Kyabram ($1.489) and Yarrawonga ($1.48).

FLOWING CERAMICS… Melbourne-based ceramist, Zhu Ohmu is currently showing her ceramics at SAM until November 6. Photo: Supplied

Showcasing slow art ceramics IN VESTIGATING the resurgence of the handmade and the ethics of slowness in an age of mass production, the ceramics designed by Melbourne-based artist Zhu Ohmu explores entanglements of human and non-human ecologies.

Her brilliant, coiled pieces are currently on display at Shepparton Art Museum (SAM) for its Showcase #23, from August 14 to November 6, 2019.

Originally from New Zealand, Zhu Ohmu graduated from Elam School of Fine Arts in Auckland with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Honours) in 2012 and now works in Melbourne.

The initial concept for her pieces was a response to the

rise in popularity of 3D printed ceramics. Corresponding to the imitation of systems of nature, the artist wanted to explore how forms would emerge if she used her hands to mimic the way a 3D printer operates through extrusion.

Ohmu’s works are built through stacking, folding, pressing and pulling. Forms emerge intuitively and seem to ebb and flow, often pushed to their structural limits.

Unlike a printer, the artist can detect even the slightest change in the properties of the clay body under different environmental conditions.

Pieces are available for purchase, as with all SAM showcase items.

Your gift includes: • 7 Day Scrub Cream Rinse-off Formula 30ml • Rinse-Off Foaming Cleanser 30ml • Moisture Surge™ 72-Hour Auto-Replenishing Hydrator 15ml • Clinique Pop Splash™ Lip Gloss + Hydration in Sorbet Pop • Quickliner For Eyes Intense in Intense Black 0.14g • High Impact™ Mascara in Black 3.5ml • Cosmetics Bag

Craft market celebrates local makers

EARLY DETECTION MEANS EFFECTIVE TREATMENT… Book in an appointment with Molemap melanographer, Alanna Adams to monitor any changes to your skin. Photo: Katelyn Morse

A skin check that could save your life AUSTRALIANS love to spend time outdoors. If the sun is out, you’ll find most of us outside soaking up some rays or enjoying its warmth, however we’re not always sun smart. So it’s no surprise that Australia has one of the highest rates of melanoma in the world.

According to the Melanoma Institute Australia, one Australian dies from melanoma every five hours. Melanoma grows rapidly and is one of the most dangerous forms of skin cancer. It can also be difficult to detect with the naked eye. But when detected early, can be effectively treated.

To help protect yourself from the threat of melanoma, a Full Body Molemap – which is designed to monitor changes over time – might

be right for you, especially if you have been badly sunburned or used sunbeds in the past, have fair skin and a medium to high number of moles, or a personal or family history of skin cancer.

At your Full Body Molemap appointment you’ll be seen by a melanographer who is specially trained to detect and image any suspicious looking spots. Molemap melanographers have completed specialised training accredited by the Australasian College of Dermatologists.

To book an appointment or for more information, visit Molemap

by Dermatologists inside the Fix Performance building at 116 Corio St, Shepparton, call 1800 665 362, or book online at molemap.net.au.

THERE are a lot of talented locals throughout the region who are hard at work constantly creating little pieces of craft and art.

In an effort to celebrate local craftspeople, the Goulburn Valley West group of the Country Women’s A sso ciat ion (C WA) i n Tat u ra are holding a local creative arts exhibition this Sunday in Tatura.

The Goulburn Valley West group is comprised of seven branches and members of all these branches hold an annual creative arts exhibition.

There will be lots of lovely arts and crafts, floral displays, baking and preserves and a spinning wheel demonstration. Junior members of the CWA Rodney branch will also be decorating and selling cupcakes on the day.

Everyone is welcome, admission is $5.00 and children attend free.

There will be raffles all day and a trading table selling a variety of goods. The 2019 Goulburn Valley West Creative Arts Exhibition will be taking place this Sunday, August 25 from 10:30am to 4:00pm at Victory Hall, 75 Hogan Street, Tatura.

‘Fix the Basin Plan’ rally expected to be largest in the region’s history REGIONAL communities across northern Victoria and southern New South Wales are preparing for what’s expected to be the biggest ever protest rally the region has ever seen.

Farming groups and effected communities have combined to organise a rally that will see record numbers converge in Tocumwal to protest what they believe is a failing MurrayDarling Basin Plan.

The ‘Fix the Basin Plan’ community rally will take place on the Tocumwal foreshore in the coming weeks, on a date that is to be finalised depending on the availability of keynote speakers.

Rally co-organiser, Darcy Hare said, “Politicians are not listening to the devastating negative impacts that the Basin Plan is having on the social, economic and environmental fabric of our communities, despite promises they would all be protected.”

Mr Hare said that the Minister for Water Resources, David Littleproud and the Minister for Environment, Sussan Ley, as well as numerous other government ministers, have been invited to the rally.

Fellow organiser, Jan Beer, echoed Mr Hare’s concerns, saying that our Federal Government is not hearing the negative effects of the Basin Plan and its impacts on rural communities.

“We can have an effective, workable plan that looks after the environment as well as our communities; but we can’t have it until Mr Littleproud admits there have been massive mistakes, and commits to fixing them.

“There are now only two choices: fix it, or Victoria and New South Wales must walk away from this disaster to protect their citizens and their rural communities.

“I’m calling on people across the Murray and Murrumbidgee Valleys in New South Wales, from the Goulburn Valley and northern Victoria, to join us in Tocumwal,” Mrs Beer said.

“Let’s send a clear message to Mr Littleproud and his government that ‘fix it’ is their only option.”

Once the date and location for the rally are finalised, The Adviser will be sure to let you know.

Shepparton Education Plan Vision: All students are empowered to learn and achieve, experiencing high quality teaching practice and best conditions for learning which equip them with the knowledge, skills and dispositions for lifelong learning and shaping the world around them.

We know that happy, healthy and resilient young people are more likely to succeed in their education and in life. That’s why we’re putting student wellbeing and support at the centre of everything we do at Greater Shepparton College (interim name).

One of the ways we are doing this is by offering smaller learning communities through a house system where students can build close connections over many year levels.

There will be nine houses at the school, each with a maximum of 300 students from Years 7 to 12. All core subjects will be delivered through each house. Teachers will be embedded in each house, building strong connections with students and their families throughout students’ secondary education.

“The house system is best described as a school-within-a-school,” says Wanganui Park campus principal Ken Murray.

“We’ve chosen a model to cater for individual students. Our house system will ensure a constant focus on student wellbeing, with a learning mentor appointed for each student to ensure consistency for learning and wellbeing discussions across each student’s time at the school.”

Houses will include modern learning centres and will be connected by communal, twostorey spaces called ‘neighbourhoods’. Each neighbourhood will include three houses along with a library and support services to enhance campus life.

Dedicated learning mentors will work with

students throughout their secondary schooling.

They will be critical in providing the personalised support students need to thrive in their new school environment and reach their full potential.

Learning mentors will also be the main point of contact for parents or guardians to discuss any concerns.

Creating a welcoming environment that embraces the diverse cultures in our community will be a key priority for our school.

Greater Shepparton College (interim name) will not tolerate bullying, racism and discrimination, and we will deal with it in line with our anti-bullying policy. Importantly, we will implement school-wide positive behaviour strategies, and teach all students these expectations.

The school’s bullying policy has been endorsed by the existing school councils and will be in place for the start of 2020. Details of the policy can be found on the school’s website.

We are also in the process of developing the school’s values so that students, staff and the broader community have a clear sense of our vision and what we stand for. We have consulted with a range of community stakeholders and we look forward to sharing these with you soon.

A Shepparton icon saved from closing its doors

Drop in rent saves local business After a week of making this sad decision, and with the closing down signs still fresh in the windows, Brian was surprised to get a call from the building’s landlord.

“We were pretty set on giving up. We moved to Shepparton for the business 18 years ago and have been here ever since. We love it here but business has been getting harder and harder,” Brian said.

“When our landlord rang and said he would reduce our rent, I was shocked. I had prepared to close the doors, move on and start a new career, but when Sam (landlord) said he’d rather us pay less than have an empty building, I really couldn’t close the doors.”

You only have to drive along High Street to see just how many empty stores there are, and that’s not including all of the vacant stores in the Maude Street Mall. While the other side of the Mall, Fryers Street, is a thriving spot for coffee and grabbing a bite to eat, High Street is in dire need of help.

According to the latest statistics from the Australian Business Register, the number of businesses from the south side of High Street, including Corio Street, Vaughan Street and Maude Street, was 157. Looking at the other side, with Stewart St, Fryers Street and some of Nixon Street and Welsford Street, there were a total of 682 businesses.

Brian said, “Sam’s decision to do this means we have one less vacant store in the CBD and could pave the way to rebuilding the town. If we offer rent deals that encourage retailers to fill the empty buildings in the heart of our town it would then encourage more customers to shop in the CBD. The alternative is stores will continue to close and it’ll make it harder and harder to rebuild.”

Dimmey’s Shepparton are going to put a bigger focus on their high-quality and affordable rugs, which aren’t a product that can be easily shopped for online.

Brian said, “You need to feel the quality and see the colours in person. We also have very competitive prices, so it’s likely to be cheaper in store since you don’t have to pay shipping costs either!”

Council explores private lease or ownership for Yarrawonga Aerodrome MOIRA Shire is seeking expressions of interest (EOI) to lease or buy the publicly owned areas of the Yarrawonga Aerodrome.

The EOI includes only the council owned areas, which comprise of a terminal building and toilets, runway, taxiway, plane parking area and other fixed infrastructure above and below ground. These occupy approximately 112 hectares of freehold council land that is zoned to protect its use for aviation related uses.

Capturing those

precious moments

According to the latest data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, there are approximately 5.4 million dads in Australia. In recent years, more Australian dads have been making time to care for young kids, with the total number of dads using flexible working arrangements to care for their kids doubling since the 1990s.

These days, around 30 percent of dads take advantage of flexible work hours to look after children under the age of 12, compared with 16 percent just two decades ago. Technology has also helped facilitate the rise of stay-at-home jobs, with 14 percent of dads working from home to care for their children, up from 7 percent in the 1990s.

Interestingly, the rise of part time work has skyrocketed for Australian fathers, from a mere 1 percent to 5 percent. This figure looks set to rise the most in forthcoming years.

Mums still do most of the childcare, with many dads fitting it in around full-time work. Overall, 90 percent of dads with children under the age of 15 are employed, compared with 65 percent of mums.

HAT’S OFF TO DAD… JB Jewellers business owners, Bozena and Jacek will help you spoil dad this Father’s Day with the perfect gift. Photo: Katelyn Morse.

We celebrate Father’s Day thanking our dads for all the hard work they do and support they give us. The least we can do is acknowledge that and show them how much we care and appreciate everything they do.

What better way to bring joy to your dad than with a Ringers Western watch.

Ringers Western was formed in the rugged Kimberley region of Western Australia in 2012 by a group of workers who got talking about the lack of quality clothing needed in their line of work.

Ringers Western aims to provide hardworking Australians with something that represents not only the iconic symbols of ringers and cowboys, but will also appeal to all men and women seeking quality clothing with style.

The same principal was applied to their watches, developed to be tough and durable, making it perfect for tradies or dads who love to get their hands dirty.

Head into JB Jewellers to get your hands on one of these high quality watches this Father’s Day. Any purchase of a Ringers Western watch comes with a bonus trucker’s hat, which is a total value of over $200 for only $119. This offer is only available from JB Jewellers, so head in store at 265 Maude St, Shepparton or phone 5831 1611.

NEWS

Our parks are up for debate continued from front page THE area covered in the central west investigation area includes 403,815ha of land in total, of which 161,215ha is public land. The investigation area is made up of three separate blocks, including The Mount Cole-Pyreness block, the Wellsford block east of Bendigo and the WombatMacedon block.

The report was released following concern for the alarming rates of extinction and habitat loss or degradation in Victoria. Further, recreation in natural environments and the associated tourism are now the major uses of public land in the central west investigation area. Residents and visitors enjoy a wide range of recreational activities here, including camping, horse riding, recreational hunting, trail bike riding, prospecting and much more.

With levels of recreational use in national parks expected to increase exponentially following rising populations in Melbourne and the state’s regional cities, the Victorian government called upon VEAC to file the report to ensure parks can continue to be enjoyed by all.

In the report, there are recommendations to change certain areas where particular activities are allowed in Victorian national parks, including retentions to some parks, extensions to others, plus the addition of new national parks.

Certain activities will see decreased availability in Victoria’s national parks, especially those that extract natural resources - recreational prospecting, firewood collection and hunting. Activities involving exotic animals, which may disturb the environment, wildlife or other recreational users, will also see a slight shift in areas available for use.

Many of these areas are changing in status, from bushland or nature reserve to national parks, conservational parks and regional parks. Each different land type procures its own

laws and it’s the shifting of these allowed laws in particular parks which are currently aggravating recreational groups such as hunters, horse riders and prospectors.

The Bush Users Group United is unsatisfied with the investigation and is calling on those in regional areas affected by the proposed changes to take part in a ‘We Want Our Bush Back Rally.’ The rally is on Tuesday, August 27 and will start at 12noon at Treasury Gardens in Melbourne, where the group will then march to Parliament House.

Bush Users Group United founder Bill Schultz has submitted a petition titled ‘Inquiry in to Public Land Management’ to the Legislative Council this week to be looked at by the state government. The petition, which closes on September 5, has 1378 signatures at the time of writing. There are also petitions up on change.org and GoFundMe, which have 2,786 signatures and raised over $4,000, respectively.

According to the Bush Users Group petition, “political groups are playing with the Australian way of life and want to lock away huge tracts of land by turning many State forest and public land into closed National Parks.

“Bush User Groups United believes there is a better alternative. We need a multiple land use management systems which allows for protection of conservation values in sensitive areas whilst allowing for economic and recreational values to be utilised in less sensitive areas of public land.”

But according to VEAC, more than half of Victoria’s land has already been cleared – more than any other state in Australia. In order to have ongoing public nature and bushland available for everyone, sacrifices will have to be made.

The forests of central west Victoria – which includes the tail end of the Great Dividing Range - supports a relatively large proportion of Victoria’s plants and animals, including 380 rare or threatened species.

For many of these species, resources such as food and breeding sites in the right kind of habitat are already in short supply. Dry conditions, hotter weather and Victoria’s exponentially rising population are putting extra stress on habitats, individuals and populations.

The report will be in parliament on Tuesday, August 27; the same day as the ‘We Want Our Bush Back’ rally is in the CBD. For further information about the report, visit www. bit.ly/2YQldCT. To learn more about the rally or to sign the petition, visit the Bush User Groups United Facebook page. For locals wanting to get involved in the rally, a bus will be leaving from Nathalia to take supporters to the event. Cost is $25 and the bus will leave from Nathalia at 8:00am. For further information, contact Murray on 0418 652 898.

Travel

safari An African

Story and photos by Geoff Vallance

We are on safari in Africa. Over three weeks we will travel through three African countries looking for the big five, meeting the people, and learning about their history.

We have begun our journey in Namibia; this is a vast desert country but only has a population of two million. We have flown into the capital Windhoek; it’s a thriving city of 300,000 people and a stepping-off point for tourism. But once you leave the city’s boundaries, it’s a stark barren scrub that greets your eyes.

Rising up from this are huge mountain ranges with their own natural beauty. Due to the topography of the land, they had to build the airport 40 kilometres out of town to find the only flat land.

As you move along, you are greeted by a housing development seemingly in the middle of nowhere, then high electric fences denoting farms that are now game reserves offering tourists accommodation and a chance to go on game drives to hunt with their cameras the animals behind the fences.

Moving south, now we are headed for the Namib-Naukluft National Park. This is said to be the oldest desert in the world and this park is home to the world’s highest sand dunes.

Its 7am and we are parked in our 4x4 outside the national park along with about another hundred 4x4 vehicles waiting for the gates to open.

Some of the 4x4s are open tops, their occupants rugged up; it’s still dark and cold. For the open tops, it’s going to get a lot colder as we move through the early morning air.

Luckily, our 4x4 is all enclosed with air con, way to go.

The sun starts to rise, the gates are open and off we go,

heading for the dunes. As the sun touches the sand dunes, the reflection of the sun’s rays from the deep red sand makes the dunes seem to glow and the contrast from the bright face to the shadowed side makes a spectacular effect.

All the dunes have been numbered and today dune 45 is open to climbers; up they go! It’s easy at first but soon the incline becomes steep and many give up, many go on. To the observer at ground level, those on top look like ants zigzagging across the top of the dune; these are the highest in the world reaching heights of 300 metres.

Next we visit the Deadvlei; it was once a lake and river but over millions of years the shifting sands have strangled its flow of water, eventually drying it out together with the camel thorn acacias trees.

It’s a good walk through the lower levels of the dunes; people travel from around the world to see this dry lake that forms part of the history of the dunes.

You climb up a rise and there before you is the Deadvlei. The saltpan sparkles white in the hot sun and rising up to the sky are the camel thorn acacias. They were already 300 years old when their fate was sealed and they are now turning to stone and estimated to be over 800 years old; it was worth the sandy trek.

To be continued.

I would like to thank David Brown Travel Manager for arranging everything.

Until next time, Safe Travel’n, Geoff Vallance.

MAIN IMAGE: Zebra’s and an antelope take a drink from a watering hole.

CAREER CHANGING OPPORTUNITY!!

Rumbalara Engagement and Family Services now have the following vacancy based at our Mooroopna Site

Targeted Care Packages Keyworker We advertise this position as an Identified Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander position only in line with ‘special measures’ under the Equal Opportunity Act 2010 Section 12 example 1.

Full time – 1 Year contract In this rewarding role, as a Targeted Care Package Keyworker (Case Manager) you will work collaboratively to provide a high standard of innovative case management to young people aged 5 to 18 years.

The successful applicant will have knowledge and demonstrable experience in delivering innovative and effective approaches for young people with complex needs. Knowledge of the Out of Home Care system and Child Protection statutory requirements as well as a demonstrated ability to achieve positive outcomes for young people through a strengths-based, outcomes-focused case management approach, will be required in this role.

Working intensely with a small caseload, the Key Worker will directly engage and work with the child, their family, carers and others to facilitate changes that support achievement of the child’s case plan and the outcomes sought for the child or young person.

Key Workers must possess an ability to work outside traditional program boundaries, and will be supported to do this.

PARENTS DESERVE BETTER TREATMENT Dear Editor, Victoria, following overseas trends commenced merging schools into larger precincts in 2005, based on a 1991 study rejected in Australia at the time. Before and during 2008 and 2009, many studies were done in both the USA and UK, which showed conclusively that smaller schools performed better in areas of academic outcome, behaviour, discipline, mental health, welfare and safety, resulting in both countries dismantling the larger schools and returning to smaller models. In Chicago in 2001, one large school was to be split up into 15 to 20 smaller schools. The UK studies called for the push from political parties to cease merging and to put a stop to “larger failing schools.” All found that small schools are associated with better outcomes for disadvantaged or socio-economic status with no negative effects for others. Melbourne University research found student achievement increased among student populations of up to 900 students and then dropped with increasing school size. No studies since 1991 have shown any conclusive evidence to back up the claims that larger schools produce better outcomes.

NAPLAN results between 2011 and 2018 of five merged Victorian Schools, Lowanna College (1994-861 students), Dandenong High School (2007-1785), Kyabram P-12 College (2009-1200), Hume Central Secondary College (2008-1072) and Victoria University Secondary College (2010/2011-927), indicated that with all the promoted advantages, they did not perform as well as Wanganui Park with none, against schools of a similar size. The merged schools had either a steady decline and were substantially below average by 2018 or showed no improvement; Victoria University Secondary College was generally close to average with both above and below average in some subjects, as was Wanganui Park. VUSC improved between 2013 and 2016, but declined after that with subjects below average in 2017/2018, while WPSC performed consistently, with all subjects close to average in 2018. Nationally, all of the above schools did not perform well, several showing a steady decline. WPSC had six subjects below average and four substantially below average, while VUSC had four subjects below average, one close to average and five substantially below average. One that did perform well after merging in 2010 was William Ruthven Secondary College a small school with 396 students who performed better than larger merged schools.

In VCE results Wanganui Park achieved 2.3 percent in 40+ results; Dandenong 0.7 percent and Victoria University 2.5 percent. Median scores were 27, 23, and 26 respectively. In NAPLAN ranking, Wanganui Park (372) outperformed both Victoria University (410) and Dandenong Secondary (513) Colleges.

Merged super schools are not working and they want to give us one school, the largest in the state.

To compensate they are going to take students from small schools, place them in a really large school, but split them up into smaller schools because they acknowledge that smaller schools are a better environment for learning.

Yours sincerely, Cherril Colleen Jones, Shepparton.

BOAT RAMP REMOVAL RAISES MORE QUESTIONS THAN ANSWERS Dear Editor, T he A nd re w s L ab or G over n m e nt ’s commitment this week that it will remove boat ramp parking and launching fees by spring raises more questions than it answers.

The detail of Labor’s pre-election promise to remove these fees is still murky, despite calls from councils and the sector for clarity.

Many councils – particularly in rural and regional Victoria – do not charge these fees meaning the Minister’s promise will effectively only remove the fees for a handful of bayside metropolitan councils that were charging these fees for maintenance purposes, leaving many rural and regional councils, and their ratepayers, at an incredibly unfair disadvantage.

For example, Mornington Shire (that has six ramps) will receive half a million dollars from the State and Hobson’s Bay (two ramps) will receive $356,000 from Daniel Andrews’ coffers, but East Gippsland Shire, that has to maintain 24 ramps and car parks – and does so from general revenue – will receive nothing.

This is duplicated across the state where only councils that already charge fees to cover maintenance will be subsidised, while regional and rural shires that have, through goodwill, not charged fees will miss out.

This city-centric Labor Government needs to have a fair system, not yet another policy that disadvantages Regional Victorians.

Yours sincerely, Tim Bull, Shadow Minister for Fishing and Boating

HOW MANY STUDENTS WILL STAY? Dear Editor, I attended the first public meeting of the Shepparton Education Plan Advisory Committee (SEPAC) in 2017. It was made clear to many attending that the decision to amalgamate the four existing government secondary schools had been made. Feedback was not considered. The choice was, amalgamate or no money for the schools.

Last week at my Rotary meeting, I asked guest speaker, Exec. Principal Genevieve Simson about amalgamations in Victoria, backed with government data. She dismissed the quoted statistics, and didn’t answer my question.

The state government’s own data shows amalgamation of state schools results in loss of student numbers. For example, Wangaratta High School had a 52 percent drop in student numbers, Colac Secondary College dropped 48 percent, Dandenong High School dropped 20 percent (the model for the Shepparton school) and Victoria University Secondary College dropped 28 percent (Ms Simson’s previous school). Dandenong High School and Victoria University Secondary College are in growth areas so the numbers should have skyrocketed.

What evidence base has SEPAC used to decide amalgamation is best for Shepparton? What is the Department of Education going to do to stop the exodus of students and good teachers from state education in Shepparton – or is that the aim?

More than 1000 students have applied to attend Notre Dame in 2020, including 570 grade 6 students trying for 270 places. Only 4 of 34 grade 6 students from one local primary school have enrolled at the McGuire campus.

Some families from St Mary’s Primary School, Mooroopna, who were intending to send their grade 6 students to Wanganui Park Secondary College are now enrolling in the Catholic system.

The anticipated student enrolment for the Greater Shepparton College, (interim name), is 2,700+ for 2020. What percentage of students will actually attend the new school, and how many will stay?

Yours sincerely, Helen Sleep, Shepparton

Adviser Footy Tipsters

SHOWDOWN… The Benalla vs Rochester game this weekend is an Elimination Final a week early, with the losing team out of the finals for 2019. Photo: Supplied.

It’s the final round of the GVL this week and we have an Elimination Final a week early between Benalla and Rochester, with the winner possibly finishing as high as 4th and the losing team having mad Monday 36 hours later.

The last time these two sides met was back in round 7 and Benalla thumped the Tigers by 11 goals at Moon Oval, with Brody Webster kicking 6 goals.

At that stage, the Saints sat in third position and looked like a genuine contender while Rochester sat in 8th position on the ladder and a season with no finals looked a real possibility.

As it stands after 17 rounds, Rochester sit in 6th position and for the first time this year, Benalla finds itself outside the top 6

and needs to win to make the finals. The Tigers are in great form and will travel to the Benalla Showgrounds full of confidence.

This game is not the only one that will have a huge impact on where sides will finish in the top 6. Tatura (5th) play Shepparton (3rd), and Kyabram (1st) play Seymour (4th), in what is going to be a sensational final round of Goulburn Valley footy.

With how the top 6 finals system works in the GVL, this is one of those seasons where 4th or 5th could quite easily find themselves in a second semi final if 6th defeats 3rd in the first week of the finals series.

Lots to play for this week and looking forward to how it all unfolds.
