COOLUM ARTIST WINS BEST OF SHOW Coolum set to play to host to Qld’s top bowlers THE month of May will see AT LOCAL CONTENT ART PRIZE Coolum inundated with the FROM PAGE 1

works were available to view online, a visit to the gallery was recommended to really appreciate the detail of the pieces on show.

“When viewed together, the works highlight the way our artists view, work and create in this region, from varied and unique natural landscapes, people and communities – all different ways to see, feel and connect.

“You will see artists who work with the more traditional mediums such as oil, acrylic, gouache on canvas through to works on paper including watercolours, prints and digital photography.

“Then there are the works by artists who work in 3D with clay, wood, resin, textiles and found objects, plus artists who combine the 2D with the 3D to create something totally unexpected - pushing ideas of perspective.”

Sunshine Coast Arts Portfolio Councillor Rick Baberowski said there was an impressive and delightful range of works on show in the Local Artists – Local Content Art Prize 2023 exhibition and would have presented a wonderful challenge to the judges.

“I offer my thanks and congratulations to all finalists, however just being selected for the exhibition is a real achievement,” Cr Baberowski said.

“From across our whole region, our Sunshine Coast artists are represented in this exhibition, and I urge and encourage everyone to support them by

‘Creek Reflec on’ by Coolum ar st Benjamin Hedstrom which won the ‘Best of show Acquisi ve Award’ at the Local Ar sts – Local Content Art Prize which is currently showing at the Caloundra Regional Gallery un l May 7.

With an eye to the future, visitors can also view the ‘Local Student Art Prize exhibition’ which provides a valuable snapshot of the region from a young person’s perspective.

From artists as young as six right through to 17 years, this enlightening collection shows us how well are we supporting our region’s youth in developing their skills as well

as what are they captured by, and through this body of work, we can really listen to what these pieces and our youth are telling us.

The Regional Gallery at Caloundra presents a dynamic exhibition program featuring leading national and local artists, complemented by immersive public programs, educational programs, tours and events.

Caloundra Regional Gallery is open from 10am, Tuesday to Sunday, and located at 22 Omrah Avenue, Caloundra.

Le ers to the editor INCOME TAX Dear editor, According to the Australian Tax Office’s 2020-21 Corporate Tax Transparency Report, if you paid more than $30 in tax during the 2020/2021 financial year you paid more than 24 of Australia’s top corporations.

Those 24 companies include Ampol, BP, Glencore, Exxonmobil, AGL, Chevron, Woodside Petroleum, Shell, and Santos. None of them paid any tax except for Chevron which paid $30, that’s right $30. The other 23 companies paid nothing, zilch, not a cent!

Unbelievable!

That’s capitalism in action. Companies making many billions of dollars can, through creative accounting and offshoring headquarters etc., avoid paying any tax in Australia.

If those companies were good corporate citizens, they would contribute to our country to help look after its vulnerable and disadvantaged with a good health system, the NDIS, proper care for the elderly, social housing, and education for its young people.

Taxation funds community services - our emergency services, transport infrastructure, Defence Force and welfare and disaster relief.

Government can only spend what it gets by tax revenue and all citizens and companies should contribute fairly and honestly to better the lives of us all.

Robyn Deane, Bli Bli. US LAWS Dear editor, After observing wind turbines As a democratic nation, held in high esteem as the “Home of the Brave; Land of the Free”, the U.S has little to be desired. Neil Diamond’s hit, ‘They’re coming to America’ for centuries, epitomises immigrants’ dream for a land of equal opportunity. But the reality is entirely different. The hypocrisy exists between the lack of gun control juxtaposed with other laws. The nation and its people are divided, politically and socially; to which we respond: “It can only happen in America!”

The U.S is a land and people of contrasts, conundrums, racism, and inequality, where the powerful and rich hold office and dictate policies and principles. It horrifies Australians who witness mass shootings of innocent people on a daily basis, while the NRA, which backs the Republican Party, refuses to address the prevalence of gun ownership. According to their

Event Showcase NO WAY JOŚE AN IRRESISTIBLE LATIN DANCE PARTY THIS MAY why not increase the temperature as the weather starts to chill with the heat of all things Latin and dance with a night of dancing with No Way Jośe as they bring their lively dance party to Coolum Civic Centre on Saturday May 27 from 7pm.

No Way Jośe performances are guaranteed to get audiences up and dancing and tickets range from just $25.

The band’s unique blend of sensual salsa, irresistible bolero, and rich harmonies of Latin American jazz create an exhilarating show, featuring some of Queensland’s most talented Latin musicians. Led by the stunning vocals of Australia’s own salsa diva-in-waiting, Amila Sargeant, No Way José is a vibrant celebration of the rich history of salsa infused with a 21st-century sensibility.

The group cannot wait to get Coolum audiences up and dancing to the sound of Latin America.

“We are thrilled to be coming to the Sunshine Coast and sharing our music,” Amilia Sargeant said.

“We love seeing the energy and passion of our audiences, and we can’t wait to see everyone on the dance floor.”

Audiences can expect an unforgettable night of music and dancing as No Way Jośe takes the stage. Singer and

co-founder Amilia Sargeant is joined on stage by pianist and co-founder Juan Manrique with Fredy Uscategui on congas, cajón, and percussion; Adam Haks on Trombone; Zac Chambers on the trumpet, and bassist Jono Fraser.

The group seamlessly weaves together their original compositions with unearthed classics from the mid to late 20th century in Latin America, bringing the energy and passion of Latin music to Sunshine Coast audiences.

Don’t miss your chance to experience the exhilarating Latin rhythms of No Way Jośe, as they light up the stage on their Sunshine Coast tour.

The No Way Jośe Sunshine Coast tour is presented by

Second Amendment, it is all Americans’ Constitutional right, “to keep and bear arms”, which “shall not be infringed”.

It seems to a be a rite of passage to own AK47s, revolvers and shotguns without question from 18 years. However, it has created a culture of reckless mass killings and gun violence witnessed daily. Any outcry of gun control measures is howled down. It wins votes. In the wrong hands, it has created a civil war.

CHOOK POLITICS? Dear editor, In the chook pen, how many ex- Top Cocks raided the nest eggs and were plucked to make feather dusters? Still strutting and preening but with nothing to crow about when the chickens came home to roost, they scratch for sustenance through the leftovers.

Business WALKING TO SAVE LIVES AND BEAT THE BLACK DOG THIS MAY Showcase EACH month, approximately 260 Australian lives are lost to suicide and this tragedy does not discriminate with young, old, men, and women alike affected. In an effort to raise awareness and funds, local couple Sam and Bess Jackson are walking 260km to raise funds for Lifeline Queensland throughout the month of May. The number 13 11 14 which is quoted when tragedy strikes is the Lifeline number, and the organisation provides a 24-hour phone line support for people in times of crisis. The Lifeline phones are staffed by volunteers and like all volunteer organisations, funds are always desperately needed. Funds raised during the month of May walk will enable more volunteers to be trained up, which means that Australians will always have someone available to listen when needed.

Sam and Bess know how important it is to have someone to talk to. Working as a carpenter, Sam sees firsthand the mental health impacts of working in construction. The construction industry has some of the highest suicide rates and Sam is working to break down the stigma of seeking help.

“It’s ok to not be ok.

“You don’t always need to know the answer - just know that there is always someone who cares about you”.

Bess works in the mental health field and is completing a PhD in suicide prevention and for Bess the topic is personal after nearly losing a family member to suicide. “Mental health does not discriminate, and it can affect anyon,” Bess

A look back in time

Finnegan returned towards the south, while Parsons walked northward.

On 29 November, 1823 John Oxley arrived off Point Skirmish in the Mermaid and took both Pamphlett and Finnegan onboard, returning to Sydney. Some ten months later, on September 11, 1824, Oxley proceeded to the spot where he had found Pamphlett and Finnegan the year before, and found Parsons there.

Working backwards from 29 November, 1823, when Pamphlett was rescued by Oxley, using the narrative he described to Oxley and the crew of the Mermaid, it seems that Parsons and Finnegan passed through the Coolum area on or around 15 November 1823, the first Europeans visiting our district. Their story, with seven others, were marked by historical signs [which unfortunately no longer exist] in 1990.

Access a Potential New Treatment for Rheumatoid Arthritis The Rheumatology Research Unit in Maroochydore is currently recruiting for a clinical trial assessing the safety and efficacy of a new treatment that may be effective in treating Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Rheumatoid Arthritis is an autoimmune disease characterised by a persistent immune response that can affect many joints, causing pain, swelling and stiffness. The new treatment being investigated is using live bacterial therapy. Bacteria are naturally found in the digestive tract and are a research focus for their important role in many health conditions such as regulating inflammation.

THIS time of year, is traditionally when local people prepare for a winter influx of visitors to our area … but did you know that our first European visitors started their journey to Moreton Bay and the Sunshine Coast two hundred years ago?

On 21 March 1823, three ‘ticket of leave’ convicts, Thomas Pamphlett, Richard Parsons and John Thompson, accompanied by John Finnegan, a ‘full convict’ – set off from Sydney for today’s Wollongong area in an open boat, 8.8 metres long and 3 metres wide, to buy cedar from timber cutters. In exchange, they were carrying large quantities of pork and flour and five gallons of rum, along with four gallons of water. However, as they neared that area, a storm blew them out to sea for five days.

Hopelessly lost, they drank their water and rum supplies, and Thompson died of thirst.

Thinking they were a long way south they turned northward as the weather improved, aiming for the Illawarra area and Sydney. However, they didn’t realise that they had been blown northwards, all the way to today’s Moreton Bay, where their boat was wrecked on 15 April, 1823.

Still “heading for Sydney”, the castaways spent seven and a half months walking around Moreton Bay, travelling to several islands, and spending quite some time with the local

people at Amity Point. They built a canoe of their own and travelled to Cleveland via Peel Island. In early June they followed the Brisbane River to Oxley Creek, and reached Redcliffe by late June. By late September they were living with the local indigenous people on the southern end of Bribie Island.

Early in November they set off to the north again, still aiming for Sydney.

They reached the Maroochy River on 11 November, 1823, but two days later Pamphlett announced that he was returning to Bribie with some Kabi Kabi people, while Parsons and Finnegan continued up towards the Noosa area. After arguing,

The sign telling the story of Parsons and Finnegan was one of a series erected in 1990 to commemorate the centenary of Maroochy Shire Council. Photo: Contributed.

In 1918 our Nation made a promise to never forget the service and sacrifice of those Australians who enlisted in the First World War. As I travelled across the electorate in the lead up to and on Anzac Day to attend local services, I was humbled to see so many people, of all walks of life, share their respects and honour the memories of our fallen servicemen and women.

A special thank you to the Coolum Peregian RSL Sub-branch for hosting the Dawn Service, and to everyone who attended. Thank you also to all our local schools for hosting services, and ensuring students had the opportunity to participate. Lest We Forget.

have consistently paid more for government fees and services under the current government.

Queensland families are paying on average $300 more for their electricity bills, despite the Palaszczuk Labor Government promising 150 times in the past six months they would make household power bills cheaper.

The new cost-of-living analysis also reveals: • Wholesale power prices

up 162% in just one year (2021-2022) • SEQ water costs up 45% since 2015 • Car and boat registration costs up 28% since 2015 • Car licence fees up 25% since 2015 These statistics paint a very grim picture. But they are not just statistics. Every day I am hearing from locals struggling to make ends meet. Meanwhile, we have a state government that lurches from crisis to crisis, more concerned about managing the political fallout than the harsh reality facing Queenslanders. It’s simply not good enough.

COOLUM SURF CLUB GIVES BACK Just in case you missed it, last week the Coolum Surf Club generously donated $54,924 to 15 local not-for-profit and charities as part of their annual Clubs Community Benefit Fund.

Congratulations to each of these groups, who will put the funds to good use by continuing to support the many locals who rely on them.

Since the Surf Club started the program, they’ve donated more than $700,000 back to our community, a champion effort from a champion club!

EXTENT OF COST OF LIVING CRISIS REVEALED

Latest statistics released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics have highlighted the extent of the cost-of-living crisis, revealing that Queensland families are facing the worst increases in the country.

The shocking ABS data for the first quarter of 2023 reveals that under the Palaszczuk Labor Government, Queenslanders copped the biggest cost rises, including: • 32% increase in electricity bills; • 3.4% increase in housing costs and • 5.4% increase in healthcare costs.

These increases far exceed any other cost increases, in any State or Territory.

Additional analysis of costof-living pressures released last week reveals Queenslanders

Cr. Maria Suarez DIVISION 9 SUNSHINE COAST COUNCIL

I’VE been invited to many events around Coolum this past month – it’s been such a pleasure to spend time with the clubs and people who make this special area such a great place to live.

Thanks to Coolum Beach Breakers AFL Football Club for inviting me to watch them train and present jerseys to the girls’ team. This is a great club, with a fantastic family friendly culture of fun and respect, and a wonderful support network of coaches, administrators and parents. The athletes trained with determination, and I wish the Breakers great success through the season.

Thankyou also to the Coolum State High School for inviting me to be part of their ANZAC day commemorations. Hearing students reflect on what the day means to them is always heart-warming.

On Sunday May 6, I’ll be attending the Sunshine Coast Malayalee Association Easter Celebration at the Coolum Civic Centre. There will be activities for kids and opportunities to learn about the Malayalee culture with music, dancing and delicious food.

NEW IRRIGATION FOR COOLUM CENTRE

Observations

TONY GIBSON A MARCOOLA RESIDENT WHO IS ACTIVE IN THE COMMUNITY AND THE ENVIRONMENT

BEAUTY IN NATURE

DURING the week I was contacted by Alan a reader of my column who had observed a palm which appeared to be growing straight out of a mango tree along the Coolum-Yandina Road at Maroochy River. I took a look and it appears also to me a single piccabeen palm is sharing its roots space with a variety of trees and has survived because of the support.

Plants are like humans and can share the earth with other plants of the same or different species and communicate with each other.

There has been research showing that plants can listen into each other and support each other.

“If we have a problem with

neighbours, we can move flat” according to Velemir Ninkovic, an ecologist at the Swedish University of Agricultural Science. “Plants can do that. They have accepted that and they use signals to avoid competing situations and prepare for the future competition”.

The original native lowland wetland vegetation has largely disappeared being replaced initially with exotic sugar cane and now urban development.

As the sugar cane has been planted right up to the edge of the Maroochy River, the lack of a riparian zone has meant there has been erosion and poor water quality in the river.

The Blue Heart project of

There is now irrigation to the centre median through the Coolum central business area. A drop system has been installed as a safe way to water the medium strip and give life to sustain a vibrant garden during the dry hot summer months.

JACK MORGAN PARK

A number of large sandstone blocks have been placed under the stand of trees near the childcare centre in response to a request from a Tai Chi group wanting to a place to put their bags. These blocks will serve as seating and no doubt be fun for the kids to climb on.

COMMUNITY STRATEGY ACTION PLAN Community members of

the Sunshine Coast Council at Yandina Creek is helping to start a process to rebuild the natural ecosystem but with large urban developments and population growth are we really serious? The establishment of a biosphere for the Sunshine Coast means we need to do massive tree planting to rectify the tree clearing that has occurred. Queensland is a land clearing hot spot in the world and we need to do more if we are serious.

In places like the Yaroomba Bushland Park we can see what the vegetation would have looked like when the piccabeen palm started to grow and was supported by many other native trees.

We need to show gratitude for early white settlers and the traditional owners’ efforts; however, it is time to use both ancient wisdom and new wisdom on land use for the good of the planet and the inhabitants.

all ages and backgrounds are invited to attend the Stronger Together Forum on 16 May at Meridan Community Centre to share their experiences and ideas help to create a renewed Community Strategy Action Plan for 2024-2029.

It would be great to have some northern representatives participate. Places are limited. Register by visiting haveyoursay.sunshinecoast.qld. gov.au.

As always, please contact council direct for any service requests Contact details or service request forms are available at www.sunshinecoast. qld.gov.au.

A reminder that I regularly share local information on my Facebook page at www.facebook.com/ MariaSuarezDivision9.

Principal’s Post TROY ASCOTT

COOLUM STATE HIGH SCHOOL

LAST week, the Courier Mail reported that Coolum High had moved into the ‘Top 150 Schools’ in Queensland, according to raking site ‘Better Education.’ While I’m not sure of the information that Better Education is basing its rankings on, the vote of confidence in the direction of our school was certainly very positive. Coolum High was one of 30 public high schools in Queensland to make the ‘Top 150’ list.

Considering the reasons why we have made the list really got me thinking and, to be honest, I think it boils down to one key thing. The single biggest reason is that the teachers at Coolum High re-

ally take the time to nurture the students, to get to know them as individuals, and to teach them in the best ways possible. I can’t tell you the number of times parents have told me of how thankful they are for our teachers, and how, in the big moments, teachers have gone over and above for their child.

There are teachers at Coolum High that are amongst the best teachers anywhere in the world. I’m willing to stake a claim on that and I’ve had the good fortune to meet Eddie Woo who was a top 10 finalist in the ‘World’s Best Teacher’ competition.

Ask any parent whose child has been in these teachers’

classes and I know they will agree. As my educational hero, Geoffrey Canada, says: “when you see a great teacher you are seeing a work of art!”

Only another teacher could tell you how complex the art of teaching is when you are in front of 28 distinctly different individuals, energetic and spirited, all looking for something different from their education, shaped differently and bringing their own distinct personality to the classroom.

The artists can keep this complex canvas together and actually teach new concepts and skills despite all the distractions around them.

So, when you think about why Coolum High has entered Queensland’s top 150 schools, think of the teachers.

You know that when a school is moving forward the teachers must be doing something right!

ANZAC DAY

I HAD the pleasure of attending many Anzac Day services across the electorate and I would like to congratulate the organisers and volunteers involved. These events can’t happen without their hard work.

In particular, I’d like to mention the services at Coolum State High School and Edgewater Retirement Village, Bli Bli. I was fortunate to also attend the Anzac Day service at Coolum State High School, and

congratulations go to school captains Layla and Jye for their MC role and their excellent speeches.

COOLUM SLSC GRANTS

The Coolum Surf Club is integral to the Coolum community. Recently, I was pleased to attend an event where the Club announced its grant recipients from the 2023 Community Benefit Fund including Coolum Meals on Wheels, Coolum HeARTS,

Coolum Peregian Swim Club and Coolum SES. A staggering $54,924 was donated by the Club to community groups and schools.

A big thanks to the Coolum Surf Club for their continued dedication to the Sunshine Coast community..

I will be out and about across the electorate on my Autumn Road Trip during the week of 15 May 2023.

IF YOU are not quite the very early morning riser but love seeing the sun, make its first appearance for the day, sunrise is now just a little bit past 6am which is a little more reasonable than at the height of summer. Julie-

Anne sent us in a range of lovely morning shots from gorgeous Point Arkwright.

“I love seeing the photo of the week and other photos you print in your paper.

I took these photos over various stunning mornings, around Point Arkwright

before and at sunrise.”

We love seeing how our readers “see” the region around us.

If you happen to take a stunning pic or have a pic of something you think the community should know about – on either your

smart phone or DSLR from anywhere in the region, we would love to see it.

Please send in your ‘pic of the week’ to, editor@ coolumadvertiser.com.au and don’t forget to include your name, where the pic was taken and what it is of.
