The Wamenusking Fun Shoot was held on the 9th and 10th July 2022. 33 dedicated archers shot over the two days. The weather was kind to us, raining on the Saturday night only. Well done to everyone that competed over the weekend. Good company, good food, a few drinks (a few too many for some), lots of laughs and some great archery. The competition included longbow, recurve and compound bows for men and women. There was a standard target course and a 3D course. As well as a novelty target.

15m prep

20m cook

4 servings

For a hearty, weeknight warmer, you can't go past this super simple taco soup. Just brown the mince and vegies, season with a packet of taco seasoning, and top it off with sour cream, avo, cheese and crunchy tortilla chips. Instead of frying the tortillas, you can opt for using a packet corn chips. But a warm, freshly cooked white corn tortilla is a game-changer, especially when dunked in the soupy goodness!

 1 tbsp olive oil

 1 small brown onion, chopped

 1 red capsicum, deseeded, chopped

 250g beef mince

 35g packet taco

seasoning

 500ml (2 cups) Massel

Organic Beef Liquid Stock

 400g can diced tomatoes

 400g can black beans, rinsed, drained

 2 x 125g cans corn kernels, drained

 Vegetable oil, to shallow fry

 4 white corn tortillas

 Chopped avocado, to serve

 Grated cheddar, to serve

 Sour cream, to serve

 Ground paprika, to serve

 Sliced fresh jalapeño chillies, to serve (optional)

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion and capsicum, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until soft and light golden. Add beef, breaking up any lumps with a wooden

spoon, for 5 minutes or until well browned.

Step 2

Add the seasoning, stock and 250ml (1 cup) water. Stir until combined. Add the tomatoes, beans and corn. Bring to a simmer. Cook, partially covered with a lid, for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, add vegetable oil to a frying pan to come about 1.5cm up the side of the pan. Heat over medium heat. Cook the tortillas, 1 at a time, for 1 minute each side or until golden. Transfer to paper towel to drain and cool slightly. Cut into wedges.

Step 4

Ladle the soup among serving bowls. Top with avocado, cheddar, sour cream, paprika, tortilla wedges and jalapeño, if using.

Benefit Fund Update

Benefit Fund membership fees have now been set for the 2022/2023 financial year, with these being:

These memberships cover you (and your family for family memberships) for all Ambulance transport within WA, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week for 12 months.

With interstate travel now freely available, we wish to advise that WA does NOT have reciprocal agreements with all states for Ambulance transport:

 NSW, NT, Victoria and Tasmania do have reciprocal arrangements with St John WA for those with Benefit Fund memberships. If you require ambulance transport in these states, you will most likely receive an invoice. However, if you have an up-to-date membership, we will be able to assist you in having this invoice written off.

Please note that for aged pensioners there are some variations to these general guidelines. Should you have any queries regarding reciprocal arrangements, please feel free to contact the sub centre.

The Country Women’s Association’s (CWA) origins stems from the creation of the Women’s Institute in Ontario, Canada in 1897 after Adelaide Hunter Hoodless lost a child to a preventable illness. It became her life’s work to educate women about hygiene in the home.

Following Canada’s lead in enabling the empowerment of rural women, CWA was introduced in Western Australia in 1924.

This voluntary organisation is for rural and city women. When first established in Western Australia 75% of branches were rural based and 25% were formed in the city. The same percentage is applicable today.

The aim of the Association is to improve the well being of all people, especially those in country areas by promoting courtesy, co-operation, community effort, ethical standards and the wise use of resources.

CWA of WA branches are located around the State, from Kununurra in the north to Condinup in the South and many locations in between. There is an online branch “Web Branch” and a Postal Branch for those who don’t have a branch nearby or unable to attend for whatever reason. Associate membership is also available. You may be surprised to learn that there are approximately 40 Branches located in and around the Metropolitan area.

Each branch is unique and reflects the needs of its community and the skills and interests of members.

DID YOU KNOW?

Throughout the depression years of the 1930’s, CWA branches statewide helped those in need with food and clothing. During WWII, members provided meals for the troops, made camouflage nets, sheepskin vests, knitted balaclavas and socks for the troops. CWA is rated one of the best voluntary war-time services in Australia and was instrumental in establishment of the Women’s Land Army.

CWA OF WA WAS INSTRUMENTAL IN ACHIEVING: -

COMMUNICATION - Itemised Phone bills

Untimed local calls to nearest business centre

More recently partnering with Telstra to solve communication issues in rural Areas and supporting education and training.

RURAL ISSUES- Cottage homes for the aged to be built in rural areas. Installation of safety grids inside all wheat bins and silos. Dams and catchments for water supplies in country areas.

SOCIAL ISSUES- Low alcohol beer

Half price passport valid for 5 years for people over 70 years of age.

Australia Day and Anzac Day holidays be on the day on which they fall. All town sites to have a central block for a park & children’s playground. All foodstuffs labelled with country or origin, irrespective of whether it is packaged in Australia.

EDUCATION- Shelter to be provided for students in school yards.

Provision of hostels for country students attending high schools

LEGAL- Mothers be made guardians of their children.

Where practical or warranted Welfare and Police Officers be women. Recording of demerit points lost for traffic infringements be listed on the notice given at the time of the offence.

SOCIAL/SERVICE ASSISTANCE-

Living away from home allowance for country children

Widows & single mothers without support granted monetary assistance.

HEALTH“

Use By Date” on all perishable goods.

Banning of smoking in buildings and other public places

Newly constructed Public Toilets to include wheelchair access.

Emergency Medical service of general practitioners similar to emergency nursing Service (WACRRM)

TRANSPORT/ROAD SAFETY-

Wearing Crash Helmets by motorbike riders, pillion passengers & bicycle riders to be compulsory; installation white lines on roads, turning lanes and improvements to roads where “Black Spots” identified.

Identification of rail crossings, reflective strips on railway stock and supporting the drive for train conspicuity (i.e. better lighting on trains)

Destination numbers shown on the rear of buses as well as the front.

Prohibiting the use of handheld mobile phones by drivers of motor vehicles.

More information on CWA of WA activities will be covered in the next Bulletin.

The Quairading CWA Branch was formed in 1925 and was originally the Dangin, South Caroling and Quairading Branch.

Whilst our numbers are greatly reduced these days we are hoping to increase membership to enable us to celebrate our 100th anniversary in 2025 just one year after the State celebration in 2024.

Through our Branch’s operation of an Op Shop we have been able to assist members of the Community who have needed a helping hand as well as donating to community events.

The Drink Fountain opposite the Co-Op suitable for humans and their doggie friends to have a drink was donated by our branch to the community to celebrate our 90th birthday. (I am hopeful the Shire will keep their promise and place a memorial plaque on the footpath before we turn 100)

In the past 12 months the branch has donated $619.89 for Community Welfare Assistance, $220.00 to the Quairading Agricultural Society for Show Awards, $400 sponsorship to ensure a safe environment and supervision for juveniles to participate in Halloween fun in Quairading. We have also assisted other branches with $250 donation to help them attend our State Conference.

Quairading Photo Club

MAY 2023

PHOTO COMPETITION SUBJECT “EASTER TIME”

GOLD (23) JESSICA (LIVE CHICKEN & EASTER EGGS IN A BASKET)

SILVER (14) ARUN (MODEL WEARING A BUNNY COSTUME)

SILVER (14) ARUN (EASTER EGGS IN A WILLY WAGTAILS NEST)

BRONZE (11) CARA (ELIJAH & HIS FIRST EASTER EGG)

VIBRANT COLOURS!!! When you take photographs make sure you capture colours that are bright & vibrant, this makes the pic have some extra wow factor and makes your pics more powerful to the viewer. Whilst watching the Coronation of King Charles III on TV, all the pomp and grandeur was more than just colourful, it was a stately display full of vibrant colours. If you are a supporter of the Royals, to be at this event in London or anywhere else in England would be a Quairading Photo Club members dream. Colourful celebration parties took place everywhere and you could have started taking pics early in the morning and still be clicking away late into the night taking 100 ‘s of pics bursting with vibrant colours. Everyone dressed up to celebrate the Coronation of King Charles III, dressed in their coloured fancy dress outfits and with cameras ready to capture amazing images of the worlds’ biggest fancydress party. During the ostentatious Coronation procession, the magnificent Gold State Coach stood out in all of its glory while transferring the new King wearing his Imperial Crown and being drawn along with eight white horses was indeed a rare sight to photograph. This 260-year-old coach was photographed by so many spectators, that it probably became one of the most photographed items on the planet. Interestingly old black and white photos of this coach still make it look very majestic. With so many red, white and blue coloured Union Jack flags and 56 flags of the Commonwealth being flown at this event, any pics taken on that day would have many colours in the background adding to your story telling photographs. The colours of the 4000 crown soldiers marching where the majority were attired with flamboyant bright scarlet red tunics was striking. The tunics worn by the Foot Guards with their majestic 45cm tall black bear skin hats, the Royal Horse Guards with their gold & bronze-coloured helmets and the Canadian Mounties were all compositions that would make a pic really POP. Like any bright red coloured coat or attire, they really stand out, photos captured of these soldiers would tell a story that signifies their strength, power, resilience & loyalty to the crown. The vibrancy of the colours throughout the coronation could be captured & recorded with your camera that create and tell a fairy tale type story. You

don’t have to get invited to a Royal event to take colourful pics, just take your camera or mobile phone everywhere and think about how the colours in your photo composure can make your pics more powerful to the viewers by photographing vibrant colours.

CONGRATULATIONS!! HEY!!! The winner of the President / Curators Award at the 2023 Photo Competition held at York was won by Quairading Photo Club member Ann Marie. This award is collecting popularity and 165 pictures were entered. The pic AnnMarie entered was in the Monochromatic (Black & White) section and was a photo of the Quairading Pink Lake, depicting morning mist and was called “STILLNESS”. Quairading Photo Club members flew the flag for the Quairading photo club and entered 4 photos all of a high standard. All the winning entries for the York competition are featured on the ‘York Photographic Awards 2023 website’, but you need to navigate firstly to the ‘The York Society INC’, then click on ‘Home’, then click on ‘Winners Gallery’. I encourage you all to jump on the internet and view these world class photos . I am sure you will be inspired, to think about taking a pic of something , even if you don’t do the photography thing.

Our photo competition subject for May was EASTER TIME. Jessica won the chocolate easter egg bunny award’ for getting first place with a snap of a real live baby chicken sitting in a basket with easter eggs. “Easter Time” was the suggested subject so we would have a challenge to complete during Easter & include some photographic activity during Easter Sunday & maybe even photograph the easter bunny. Some members did report seeing the easter bunny but did not have their camera on hand.

Photos in the competition included: A Cross in a Church on Easter Sunday, Cara’s son eating his first easter egg, Portraits and Selfies of sitters with Easter Bunny costumes, various easter egg studies in outdoor settings and a Risqué Portrait of a Playboy Bunny.

At our May meeting Arun presented and demonstrated methods used to light your photographic subject or composition, this prepared the QPC members for our June 2023 subject - LIT BY ARTIFICAL LIGHT.

Anybody can join the Quairading Photo Club. We meet at the Quairading CRC at 7pm on the 2nd Tuesday. Currently we need to get some more members, so if you have thought about checking out a Photo Club meeting or just want to check out what we do, just roll up. You don’t need a flash camera, a lot of us use our mobile phones to take our winning pics.

Gardening in the Wheatbelt

I had expected the deciduous trees to be bare at this time of the year, however, May has been quite warm and it has given us all, the opportunity to enjoy the brilliant colours of autumn for a lot longer. If anyone is interested in seeing amazing colour displays there are orchards which have pick your own persimmons around the Roleystone area. Persimmons have incredible colours and are a worthy ornamental garden tree even without their delicious fruit. The QGLG welcomes anyone interested in gardens and gardening to come to our next meeting at the CRC on Friday 26th May at 10am. Thank you to everyone who came and contributed to our Biggest Morning Tea event we raised $184.50.

Plant of the Month – In the last few months we have looked at some of the fruit trees which can be successfully grown in the Central Wheatbelt. Well, there is another group of productive trees which do extremely well in our area and that is nut trees. At Eaglewood we have Almonds, Pistachios Pecans, Macadamias, Chestnuts and Stone Pines. Most of our trees are young and not producing nuts yet, however, the Almond trees produce every year and last year I froze six kilos of nuts which are still being used to make Almond meal and are also eaten as a healthy snack. The Pistachios produced their first crop this year and are a delicious addition to our orchard produce. The Stone Pine trees don’t bare nuts until they are about twenty years old so we won’t be picking cones but I’m sure the Carnaby Cockatoos will be ever so grateful we planted them. Some of the trees mentioned are large trees which may not be suitable to keep trimmed in a suburban block, but Almond tree make a beautiful garden tree. They are the first of the deciduous trees to flower and when their petals fall it creates a magical fairy garden scene with the ground covered in pink and white blossom. Macadamias are also an easy tree to have in the garden, they don’t

need a lot of space and there are new cultivars which have long pink blossom and make an attractive statement when in flower. Pistachios take about seven years to produce their first nuts and only grow to five or so metres, however, you do need at least two trees because they are dioecious, that is, you must plant a male tree and a female tree or two to get fruit set. All these nut trees are easy care, require very little maintenance and as long as they are in well drained soil with some irrigation during the hottest of our summer months, they will produce a good crop each year. They all benefit from some fertilizer in late winter and animal manure mulch under their drip line.

This Month in the Garden –It’s time to – There are far more enjoyable tasks to be done in the garden during June than tiresome ones. So many native plants can be planted and many spring flowering annuals also. The joy of planting and sowing far outweighs the weeding that needs to be done, but the weeding must be tackled before seeds appear and become a problem for years to come. Start preparing for the summer vegetable crops. Dig trenches where the tomatoes, capsicums, eggplants, cucumbers, pumpkins and melons will be planted, ready to fill with manure and compost in August. Start a compost site, use all the fallen leaves in your garden, add some weeds and manure and turn the pile from time to time to make the best compost ever. Take hardwood cuttings of your deciduous trees. Spread aged manure, blood and bone or pelletized chicken manure under native plants which flower in winter to help them along in spring when they put on new growth. If there are roses that suffer from black spot, just take the affected leaves off and bin them; there isn’t much point in treating the roses this month best to wait till July at pruning time. Keep a look out for scale and aphids on citrus and treat with eco oil as soon as possible.

Sow – There’s still time to put in spring bulbs but not many plants to sow in June.

Plant – Bare rooted plants and trees are in catalogues and nurseries, even if you haven’t ordered anything there are always some available. Now is a great time to put in native plants. Keep in mind they must be watered if there are long dry spells during winter.

Harvest – We’re harvesting apples, pomegranates, the last of the grapes and lemons have started too. In the veggie beds there is lettuce, still some eggplant and capsicums, rocket, radicchio, carrots, English spinach, silver beet and radishes. The peanuts have been harvested and are drying in the greenhouse. There are sweet potatoes to harvest too but they look so lush we haven’t had the heart to pull them out.

The last word –“In a way winter is the real spring, the time when the inner things happen, the resurge of nature.” Edna O’Brien (novelist)

Coming of the Light, Ellarose Savage

Trinity Sunday is the first Sunday after Pentecost in the Western Christian liturgical calendar. Trinity Sunday celebrates the Christian doctrine of the Blessed and Undivided Trinity, the three Persons of God: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Founder’s Day at The Hale School marks the admission of the first student to the school on 28th June, 1858. A Service to honour the occasion and the life of the School, and to which Old Haleians, boarding families of The Hale School, and local parishioners are welcome, will take place at St Faith’s Church, Quairading, at 6.30 p.m. on Monday, 26th June.

The Coming of Light festival marks the day the missionaries of the London Missionary Society landed at Erub (Darnley) Island in the Torres Strait on 1st July 1871, introducing Christianity to the region. The Torres Strait Islands were annexed in 1879 by Queensland, thus becoming part of the British colony of Queensland, and after 1901 of the Australian state of Queensland although some of them lie just off the coast of New Guinea. In 1900 the Anglican Diocese of Carpentaria, which included what is today known as the Northern Territory, was established out of the Diocese of North Queensland. A Eucharist to honour this significant moment in the life of the Anglican Church of Australia and the people of the Torres Strait will be held on Sunday, 2nd July at 9.00 a.m. at St Faith’s Church, Quairading.
