Grant win for Baradine Preschool Childcare for Baradine district residents has taken one giant step forwards following the announcement of grant success.

by LIZ CUTTS The Baradine P reschool has been awarded $225,120 from the NSW Government’s C l u b G r a n t Infrastructure program for stage one of their project to construct a long daycare centre.

T his project is one of 46 projects across NSW sharing in $6.4 million under the latest r ou nd of f u nd i n g i n the g ra nt s ’ pr og ra m a nd i nclude pr oje c t s in the areas of sport and recreation, the arts and culture, community in f rastr uctu re and disaster readiness.

Baradine Preschool Director, Lauren Harris said the Ba rad ine

Preschool Management Committee was delighted to have landed the funding.

“This project ad d r e s s e s t h e v i t a l n e e d t o e s t a bl i s h a long daycare service in the town and eliminate the need for families to travel a minimum 10 0 -kilometre return trip to access the closest service for children 0-3 years old,” she said. “ T h i s pr oje c t a l s o add resses the need to invest in local infrastructure to support early childhood care and educational outcomes and support working families. “ We h ave be en trying to get a grant

for a number of years without any luck and we were getting very close t o ou r development application use-by-date.

This win means we are on track to move ahead with the construction of th i s much-ne eded facility.”

Ms Harris said the long dayca re ser v ice will be built alongside

the existing Preschool facility. “ T h i s m e a n s t h at the service will serve a wider range of children, from infancy through to preschool age, creating a continuous, long-term educational journey for children within the one service,” she added.

“We want to provide a s er v ic e t h at g ive s

parents essential childca re suppor t, allowing them to pu rsue employ ment o r e d u c a t i o n opportunities, reducing stress and improving family stability. “ We b e l i e v e t h i s project has the potential t o attract sta f f w ith young children to the town to fill vacancies

that exist in businesses such as the hospital, schools and government depa r tments.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR  editor@coonabarabrantimes.com How long?

After retuning home from a weekend away, I was shocked to see the burnt-out remnants of a fibro home in John Street (Coonabarabran).

I had prev iously asked the CEO of the C oonaba rabran Aboriginal Land Council (CLALC) for an update on the renovation of this eyesore, which had been in this state for years. He advised me the land was designated to be a series of flats for the elderly.

Three families had lived in it, in my life t i me , a nd the house was in a sound state.

W hen the CL A LC took ownership of the property and occupancy began, it slowly became

unliveable, hence the need for the security fencing.

T he “ T imes” of t he 2 6 t h S ept emb er reported that the CEO of the CL A LC stated that the area had “rich, cultural significance”.

It would be enlightening if he could describe just what “rich, cultural significance” means.

We now h ave a “significant mess” on the ma i n entra nce t o ou r t ow n a nd the question remains – how long before the CLALC will move to clean this site?

Yours etc., Terry Tighe Coonabarabran 2357 (19.11.2024)

Excited Baradine preschool management committee members Tiffany Evans, Elise Butler, Beth Palmer, Lauren Harris, Sharon Single and Briony Wills, have the building plans ready to construct the children’s daycare centre.

A evening of grace and celebration The MacKillop Debutante Ball delivered an evening of timeless elegance last Friday, as 13 young women from Coonabarabran and Baradine made their formal debut in front of family and friends.

Held at the Coonabarabran Town Hall, the event was a celebration of community spirit, with the debutantes gracefully presented in stunning white gowns to Warrumbungle Shire councillor, Kodi Brady and Coonabarabran Times editor, Kait Britton.

Accompanied by their partners, the young

women danced their way into a memorable chapter of their lives.

Under the tutelage o f i n s t r u c t o r, J e n n a Flood, the debutantes performed the traditional Pride of Erin waltz and a modern, boot-scooting show to the tune of Beyonce’s ‘Texas Hold ‘Em’.

E v e n t o r g a n i s e r,

Michelle Brady, reflected on the night’s success with pride.

“It was a very beautiful night,” Mrs Brady said.

“My highlight was seeing all the young people dancing all night, and all the people who were there to see them and cheer them on.”

The hall was transformed into a scene

of sophistication, with elegant floral decorations and fairy lights setting the tone for the evening.

As the debutantes waltzed across the floor, they were met with applause and admiration from an audience that spanned generations.

For many, the night wasn’t just a rite of passage for the debutantes, but a heartwarming reminder of the enduring bond shared within the town.

Driving home success: volunteers celebrate top award Recently, the volunteer drivers behind the Warrumbungle Community Care were recognised with the prestigious NSW Volunteer of the Year award and to celebrate, were treated to a lunch at the Council Chambers in Coonabarabran.

by ELEANOR RAPLEY Warrumbungle Community Care drivers hold a meaningful place in the community, as they transport elderly residents and individuals with a disability, allowing them to access a range of services including appointments, shopping and social activities.

For all the volunteers, they say it’s a joy and a privilege, providing companionship to their clients and a chance for the clients to pass on their stories of childhood, the shire and morals.

Of the approximately 20 volunteers based across Coonabarabran and Coolah, they are all retired themselves, granting them a

purpose, and they hope ‘what comes around goes around’ when they need it in the future.

The award seeks to promote the importance of volunteering across NSW, with nominees from various sectors and organisations, and it is an honour for all involved.

To recognise this honour and all the hard work that has led to this moment, the drivers were treated to a lunch at the Warrumbungle Shire Council Chambers in Coonabarabran, bringing together all the volunteers and Council staff who support this initiative.

The volunteers urged anyone with spare time to join them and help sustain this initiative, which they have dedicated so much time and effort to.

Meet some of the wonderful Warrumbungle Community Care volunteer drivers...

Don Mancer and Neville Wilkin, the oldest Community Care volunteers, were given the honour of cutting the celebration cake at their award luncheon.

Warrumbungle DV Committee White Ribbon Month launch ‘Essentials Bags’ The Warrumbungle Domestic Violence (DV) Committee has launched a new initiative, ‘Essentials Bags’, which have been distributed across the Shire to increase support for victims of domestic violence.

by ELEANOR RAPLEY V i c k i B a r n e s a nd Natalie Dials, as representatives for the Wa r r u m b u n g l e D V Committee, explained that the bags a re de si g ne d t o supp or t people who may present to services after hours, prov id i ng a lmost a week’s worth of various supplies. “ We wa nt t o ma ke sure that the community is being supported after hours, weekends, and when services shut down for C h r i s t m a s , New Years.”

The bags were supported by a range of community donations.

The Binnaway Lions Club put forward funds to support them, while Wo o l w o r t h s p a s s e d on donations from the ‘ S h a r e t he D i g n it y ’ campaign to the program.

A n independent group of local girls also donated to the project, as d id the DV R apid Response Team, which sent through shaving bags and blankets.

W hile the contents of each bag may vary slightly, each contain full-sized products that may suppor t an individual for up to a week, securely stored in a drawstring bag.

The bags may contain a hairbrush, toothpaste, notepad, washing p o w d e r, d e o d o r a n t , hand sanitiser, loofah, body and hai r wash, baby wipes, and coffee sachets.

O r g a n i s e r s acknowledge this is not a long-t erm solution for someone facing domestic v iolence.

However, the idea is that if someone were to seek help at a police station, for example, they could be given this package to support them temporarily until they’re connected with further services.

A round 3 0 bags in

total have been passed ont o p ol ice st at ions , hospitals and community health services across the Shire.

Ms Barnes and Ms Dials encouraged any s e r v i c e s t h at m i g ht b enef it f r om h av i n g some bags to reach out.

“We’ve kept records of where they’ve gone and how many have gone where, and in a couple of months we’ll revisit whether or not there’s a need,” they said. “ The DV committee is very grateful to the Binnaway Lions Club for its generous donation, as our committee is not funded and relies on grants and donations.

“The Lions Club did not hesitate to support this great cause.”

Meanwhile, the Wa r r u m b u n g l e D V Committee is seeking to increase its exposure w it h i n t he S h i r e by having an information table at more events.

White Ribbon breakfast event The group will also host a breakfast outside the C oonaba rabran Courthouse on 25 November to kick off

‘16 Days of Activ ism Against Gender-Based V iolenc e ’ a s pa r t of White Ribbon Day. The committee encourages community members to volunteer

with the organisation, as many current members are also service staff and with new perspectives they can help identify a nd add ress u n met needs.

Earlier this year, White Ribbon Australia ran a series of focus groups with men and boys from all ages and stages of life, colours, cultures, shapes and sizes – what was found was alarming!

“We saw a disconnect between men and the issue of violence against women,” the organisation stated.

“The messages out in the community about preventing violence aren’t reaching the people who need to hear it most.

“So, this year we’re doing things differently. White Ribbon Australia is expanding our traditional White Ribbon Day to be White Ribbon Month – a month dedicated to broadening our reach, asking the right questions and impacting the thinking of men and boys about violence and abuse against women.

“For too long, women have been alone in championing ending violence against women. If we want change, we need men to walk alongside women.

“That all starts with men being willing to talk about violence against women.”

White Ribbon Australia says changing behaviour doesn’t happen by telling men how to think, act or feel – it starts by listening and having honest conversations about how we can be better for ourselves and others.

So, from 18 November to 13 December, the organisation is asking every man in Australia to get involved and tell them where they’re at with the issue of violence against women.

“The start of a nation-wide conversation where you talk and #welisten.

“We’ll be sharing these conversations throughout the month. You can join the conversation by tagging us in your own videos at @whiteribbonaustralia.”

Fire closes highway, shuts down power At 1.08pm on Friday, 15 November, local NSW Rural Fire Service (RFS) crews were called to a grass fire burning along the Newell Highway, near the corner of Warrumbungles Way.

by ELEANOR RAPLEY While investigations are continuing as to how the f i re began, local authorities have linked the possible cause to a motor vehicle.

Te n R F S b r i g a d e s responded, with an estimated 4 0 - 5 0 volunteer s on -site, suppor ted by t wo fixed-wing aircraft (“bo m be r s”). F i re and Rescue NSW Coonaba rab ran a l so assisted with property protection efforts.

P o l i c e a n d Wa r r u m b u n g l e S h i re Council staff were also present, with RFS support staff working behind-the -scenes.

RFS I nspecto r D ez Wh ite repo r ted, “ the total area burnt was 130 hectares and we didn’t have any property loss or major damage.”

However, the highway was closed temporarily, before being re-opened a r o u n d 9. 3 0 a m o n Saturday morning, with

a reduced speed limit that was predicted to remain in place for several days. “ F o r s a fet y o f t h e public, the decision was made ver y quickly to close the road, with fire crowning the trees on both sides of the road,” Inspector White said.

“So, between us and t h e p o l i ce, t h e ro a d was closed very quickly, and not reopened until i t wa s d e e m e d s a fe

by Transpor t for NSW, as there was a lot of work to do to clean up damaged trees along the roadside.”

A widespread power outage that impacted over 4,0 0 0 customers in Coonabarabran and surrounding areas has been attributed to vegetation fall ing on a p owe r l i n e s d u r i n g mopping-up operations.

Moving for ward, I n s p e c to r W h i te h a s warned the community to remain vigilant and to plan ahead for bushfires.

“Even thoug h we

have had some ra i n, if lightning strikes trees – which we had a few on Sunday night – they can burn internally for a number of days before we know about them,” she said.

“We ask the community to prepare their properties. Don’t wait for a fire to start, and listen to advice from agencies like police, RFS and F i re and Rescue NSW. “If people need any advice on how to clear their properties, make contact with us (the RFS).

“Do not wait – have a bushfire plan in place and be ready to enact it at short notice. “ We n e e d fa m i l i e s and proper t y owners to be prepared – grass f i res can move up to four times faster than bushfires because they’re more susceptible to wind. “ I ’d l i k e t o t h a n k the pub l ic fo r thei r unde r s tand i ng, and the inconvenience of

having the roads closed and the loss of power.”

B a r n ey T h o m p s o n , o n e o f t h e p ro p e r t y ow n e r s i m p a cte d by the fire, learned it had

reached his land after receiving a call from an friend.

“Fences and feed are all buggered – probably burnt about 15 acres,”

he said.

Despite the damage, Mr Thompson expressed gratitude for the swift response from local f i ref ighte r s. Look ing

ahead, he plans to increase haza rd reduction ef fo r ts i n future seasons to help minimise potential damage.

Firefighters battled the wind during Friday’s grass fire.

Wild weather causes power chaos across Warrumbungle Shire Residents across Coonabarabran and the Warrumbungle Shire endured significant power disruptions over the weekend, with outages linked to a combination of local incidents and a state-wide storm system.

In the early h o u r s o f S a t u r d a y, 16 N o v e m b e r, m o s t homes and businesses in Coonabarabran and surrounding areas lost power after vegetation came down on powerlines during a bushfire clean-up south of Coonabarabran.

“To keep the community safe, network equ ipment operated automatically, isolating the power to appr ox i mat ely 4 ,0 2 9 homes and businesses until crews arrived at the site,” an Essential Energ y spokesperson explained.

T he out age, wh ich began around 1.30am, triggered an automatic safety mechanism de s i g ne d t o pr event fur ther damage or

danger to the community.

E ssentia l Energ y crews were dispatched immediately, working i nt o t he mor n i ng t o assess and repair the damage. Full power was restored by 10.10am.

Customers were updated via SMS with estimated restoration times, and those impacted are encouraged to ensure their energy retailer has their current contact details to receive future updates.

Sunday storms batter the state A wild storm system swept across NSW on Sunday, 17 November, w rea k i ng h avo c on E s s e n t i a l E n e r g y ’s network.

Heav y rain and strong winds brought down trees, damaging

powerlines and cutting electricity to more than 17,000 customers at the peak of the storm.

“Severe storms wreaked havoc across the state yesterday (Sunday, 17 N o v em b e r) , w it h heavy rain and ferocious winds bring ing trees down onto powerlines and causing significant, widespread damage to the Essential Energy electricity network,” the spokesperson said.

Wagga Wagga a nd surrounding areas were the hardest hit, with over 13,000 customers affected. By 11.30am on Monday, crews had reduced the number of outages to 2,300. “ E s s ent i a l E ner g y crews a re work ing tirelessly in challenging cond itions last night

and have returned this morning to continue the clean-up, and repair and restoration efforts,” the spokesperson said.

To assist with repairs, Essential Energy deployed hel ic opt er s to survey the damage and portable generators to provide temporary power to communities where rest oration is expected to take longer.

Locally, residents in Baradine, Binnaway, Coolah, Dunedoo, and Mendooran were among those affected. Essential Energy urged residents t o stay i n formed v ia t hei r p ower out age s webpage and reiterated safety precautions.

“Customers will be sent an SMS with an estimated time of restoration (ETR) as it

DONNA RICHARDS

Coulton delivers valedictory speech Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton delivered his valedictory speech last Monday, just a few days short of 17 years since he was first elected as the 1029th Member of the Australian Parliament.

Mr Coulton took the opportunity to thank h i s f a m i ly, f r ie nd s , supporters, and current and former staff – many of whom travelled to be there in person – as well as his National party and Coalition colleagues for their support over the past 17 years.

He paid special tribute to his wife, Robyn, who he said has been by his side every step of the way.

“We decided to do this as a team,” Mr Coulton said. “ S o , fo r t he l a s t 18 yea rs – we spent a ye a r c a mpa ig n i ng beforeha nd – we’ve travelled together, and in a big year we’ve probably spent the equivalent of 20 40-hour weeks a year in the front of a car – Robyn reading the emails and me dictating messages back to the office.”

Mr Coulton spoke of the great diversity and uniqueness of the Parkes electorate, which he said was much more than just the agricultural and mining industries that underpin the economy.

He said there are so many projects and “shiny things” he could highlight as achievements over the yea rs, such as t he We st er n Ca nc er Centre in Dubbo, the Australian Opal Centre in Lightning Ridge, the Baaka Cultural Centre in Wilcannia, the library i n B r oken H i l l , t he small animal abattoir in Bourke and, of course, the Inland Rail – “just build it for God’s sake!”

But Mr Coulton said some of the achievements he’s most proud of are those that a re more difficult to point to. “ S omet i me s y ou r

successes with issues become inv isible, because if you fix the pr oblem pe ople st op talking about it,” Mr Coulton said.

“A lot of the things that a re achieved here are done without recognition.

“When I was Regional H e a l t h M i n i s t e r, I introduced the generalist p a t h w a y, w h i c h i s training doctors with more skills to work in rural areas.

“The medical school at Dubbo had over 520 applicants for the 30 places, so we’re training local doctors in the area. “ I g r adu at e d t he rebate for Medicare. I don’t know that anybody here even knows that if you’re a doctor working i n t he mor e r emot e areas, you get a higher rebate for every patient you see than the ones in the cities. “[As Assistant Trade Minister], I represented the countr y a couple of times at A PEC in tourism and trade. I was at the first ministerial meeting of the TPP-11, which was the biggest trade deal done in the history of the world. But what people wouldn’t realise now, when the farmers are going to the silo and looking at the price of barley, that one of the buyers now is Mexico. They're buying barley to make beer in Mexico because of that agreement that we made.

“When farmers are having their big crop now and they’re filling up the grain storages that were funded by a tax deduction in one year, as a policy to prepare farmers for drought so that they can store their g rain and manage it

better, they're probably not thinking that that was a decision and a discussion that came out of our party room. But those sorts of decisions are making big changes for people.”

I n contrast , M r Coulton said sometimes decisions made in P a rl i a m e nt a r e n o t always for the better. “ W hen the d istr ibution pr ior ity area changed straight after the last election – and the doctors could now declare Wollongong, Geelong and Newcastle

as regional – western NSW lost six doctors that week,” Mr Coulton said. “ Si x that week from some of the mo s t d i s adva nt a g e d c om mu n it ie s i n t he country. So, decisions here can make a difference.”

In his final message, Mr Coulton said regional Australia shouldn’t be taken for granted. He expressed his concerns that regional Australia is being compromised so that city-dwellers can feel good about doing

someth i ng t o lower emissions and “save the planet”.

“When you take your family to Disneyland and you tick the box that you want to offset your carbon emissions a nd p ay a bit mor e money, and that money goes to plant trees on a productive fa rm, you are then sending a future generation to have to worry about food security,” Mr Coulton said.

“If we’re going to treat regional Australia as a magic pudding, that

every time we want to do something we just pinch a bit away, and every time you lock up a western NSW sheep farm and turn it into a national park or you buy productive water out of the Mu r ray Darling Basin, then you are subjecting future g ener at ion s t o h ave t o wor r y ab out fo o d security.

“And it's not just us.

We feed 50 million people outside of Australia, so we’ve just got to keep that in mind.

“I said in my first

speech that I have a deep and unshakeable belief in inland Australia; and I still believe that today.

It holds the keys to the future prosperity of our country.

“There would be no better place to live in the world than Australia, and no better place in Australia to live than in western NSW. “It’s been an honour and a privilege to serve as the 1029th member elected to the Australian Parliament. But it’s time to move on, and I thank you very much.”

Westpac Rescue Chopper launch Summer Appeal As summer approaches, the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service is preparing for what is traditionally one of its busiest times across its service area in Northern NSW, launching its annual Summer Appeal to raise valuable funds for the Service’s operations.

Whether it’s simply getting outdoors and being more active on the weekend or undertaking longer brea ks across t he s c ho ol hol id ays , summer invariably sees people travelling and holidaying throughout nor ther n NSW ’s coasta l a nd reg iona l communities. “ We k now f r om past years that across summer, our aircrews and ou r helicopter cr itical ca re med ical teams from NSW Ambulance and NSW Health, at each of our forward operating Bases in Lismore, Tamworth and B elmont, w ill enc ou nt er i nc r e a s e d calls for help from those in need,” Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service chief executive officer, Steven Underwood said.

“We see people right across northern NSW out enjoying all that the warmer months have to offer in both regional and coastal areas. With this increased activity, we know that despite the best efforts of everyone t o rema i n sa fe, we will be called upon to the point of need for people requiring urgent medical assistance. “ In addition to the subst a nt i a l c ore funding from the NSW Government, the collective funds from t he S u m mer A pp e a l directly contributes to the lifesaving and lifechang ing world class aeromedical emergency support that the Service, i n pa r t ner sh ip w it h the NSW Government, delivers to the communities that we

serve across northern NSW. “We also recognise and understand the rising cost-of-living pressures that prospective donors are facing and we are deeply appreciative of their ongoing support t o t he S e r v i c e ,” M r Underwood concluded.

Yes she CAN: Guide crushes it for cancer and the planet Coonabarabran Junior Guide Ava Harley, has been working on her Advocacy ‘Create a Challenge’ Badge since May. Ava s uc c e s s f u l ly completed requirements for the challenge and was presented her Advo cacy B adge on Tuesday, 12 November, where Guides district manager, Viv ian Evans said Ava “did an exemplary job.”

Ava sh a r ed her challenge and achievements with her peers by sharing the following presentation: “One afternoon I was l o ok i n g t h r ou g h my badge book and I found the t opic ‘Advo cacy ’, I thought it lo oked interesting. At the high tea I asked Blue Wren about it, and sha red my idea to collect, earn and return bottles and cans to raise money for the Cancer Council. I thought that the Cancer C ou n c i l wa s a g o o d organisation to support because lots of people in our community have exper ienced cancer and, not just that, by collecting bottles and cans I would be helping the environment,” Ava related.

“Next, I got to work

collecting bottles and cans. I collected some from the Tennis Club, leaving a note on a box so people knew what I wa s doi ng. O t her s came from my friends and family and, lastly, I collected some from the Guide Hall where they were in an old wool bale bag.

“Once I had collected all the cans, it was time to take them to the tip.

At the tip I helped to count the cans and sort them into bags, ready to be recycled. It felt like it had taken a long time, but I finally had enough to make my donation.

“With the help of my parents, I donated the money to the Cancer Council. Now I’ve helped to recycle and donated money to a great cause, I guess you can call it a win, win, win.

“Working towards my Advo cacy Badge was hard work, but it was a fun experience and I felt good knowing that my work would help people in our community.”

THE MCWHIRTERS OF BINNAWAY: PART 1 Binnaway had many forms of entertainment in the 180 0s. Picnics and outings were a main feature involving little cost. R ace meeti ngs, t en n is t ou r n a ment s , athletic meetings, balls and dances were held , a nd the hot els were ever present with their supply of alcohol beverages.

One other features of this per iod was the establ ishment of la rge fami l ies. T he M c M a s t e r s , Wa t t s , Jones, Edwards, Opferkuchs and Kerrs were a few of these – and one was the McWhirter family.

‘Binnaway on the Castlereagh’ T he fol low i ng t ex t and photos have been taken from R obyn Bull’s ‘ Binnaway on the Castlereagh’, with some minor alterations: Joh n M cW h i r t er a r r ived in Binnaway around 1869, probably with Charles Naseby who was his wife Har r iet’s uncle. In a petition dated February 9, 1876, the residents of Binnaway recommended John as Postmaster for the developing village. lt was estimated that about 2 0 0 persons would benef it by the e s t a bl i s h ment of a n o f f i c e at B i n n aw ay.

A lso i n 18 8 8 , Joh n McWhirter took over the licence of the Binnaway lnn from Charles Naseby. John was the f i rst businessman in

Binnaway, conducting a store, Post Office and butcher’s shop, as well as the hotel.

A large advertisement appeared in the Mudgee Guardian on February 9, 1902, that an auction sale of the proper ty of the L ate John McWhirter was to be held. Listed for sale were: 150 acres freehold, 677 acres Conditional P u r chase, 2 5 3 acres Crown Lease, Exchange H o t e l , 14 r o o m s , 3 private residences, Post Office, Telephone office,

store, blacksmith shop etc.

The auctioneer drew s p e c i a l at t ent ion t o th is sa le compr isi ng nearly all the whole of Binnaway Township.

On the death of her husband in 1891, Harriet McWhirter continued to run the hotel, and in 1895, four years after John’s death, she had the name changed to the E xcha nge Hot el.

Sometimes during the 1890s the hotel licence moved from a building down by the river at the

original Binnaway Inn, to where the present hotel stands. Harriet was a lady to be reckoned with, she lost the hotel licence for a while, but managed to get it back because she owned the hotel and wouldn’t let the new licensee take possession.

On the journey to B i n n aw ay f r o m t h e Hunter Valley to join her husband, Harriet, two ch i ld ren a nd a woman companion were held up at g u n point by the bushranger,

T h u n d e r b o l t .

Fortunately for t h i s s m a l l p a r t y, T hu nderbolt a l lowed them to continue t hei r j ou r ney, when he observed that they d id n’t h ave a ma le escort.

On the death of his father, John McWhirter, i n December 18 91, C h a r l e s M cW h i r t e r formally applied to carry on the post and remained in that position until 1913.

On December 1, 19 0 0 the f i rst post

mother’s death.

A f t e r l e av i n g t h e hotel, Charles became a for wa r d i n g a g ent , serving the town and district. He died in 1957 at the age of 92 years.

Charles had married Cather i ne T hompson and together they raised a family of seven children. After leaving the hot el , Cather i ne became the proprietor of a guest house. She had established an excellent c at er i n g r eput at ion , and her well-appointed r o o m s w e r e e a g e rl y s ou g ht a f t e r by t he travelling public.

WEATHER WATCH

This extremely valuable picture was taken around 1885. It is very rare for such an old photo, because all are identified.

The group is probably posing in front of John McWhirter’s Hotel. Standing I to r: Fred McWhirter, Alex Kerr jnr, Gilbert McWhirter, Harriet McWhirter, Andrew McWhirter, Walter McWhirter, Hughie McWhirter. Seated l to r: Bob McWhirter (on knee of Alan Cutler) Mrs Alex Kerr (nursing Stanlev McWhirter), John McWh|rter (nursing Mildred), Mrs McWhirter (nursing Minnie), Harry Cutler, Tom Blackman (nursing Billie McWhirter). The photo shows Gilbert to be a boy about 15 years of age, making his birth year as about 1870. There appears to be 12 in the family with the parents John and Harriet, together with two Kerrs, two Cutlers and Blackman being the extras.

Customised rapid diagnostic tech targets priority pests and diseases Scientists are using advanced diagnostic technology to develop new ways to quickly identify pests and diseases which threaten animal and plant health, as the NSW Government works to boost biosecurity preparedness.

The potential impact of an incursion of these pests and diseases would have a significant impact on NS W ’s env i ron ment , primary industries and the economy.

Diseases, such as footand-mouth disease which isn’t present in Australia, cou ld cost m i l l ions of dollars in control costs, production and market loss.

During the past week the very hot conditions which had persisted in the Kimberley and Pilbara regions of Western Australia has eased, but the very-hot conditions have persisted over most of Queensland.

Barcaldine, in the central west of Qld has easily recorded its hottest August to mid November period in 111 years of records; the previous hottest such period was back in 2013.

The summer of 2013-14 was very hot indeed and dry for the most part. Some places in northern Victoria received useful rains early and late December and in the fourth week of January.

Coonabarabran recorded 44 degrees on 3 January 2014, the hottest since 44.4 degrees on 3 January 1903.

Most of Victoria and the Riverina sweltered in a big heat wave during the third week of January 2014, with the highest temperature near 46 degrees at Hay. Palmerville has continued to be very hot since last winter and is certain to record its hottest-ever year in 128 years of records. The two previous hottest years were in 1988 and 2021.

Cairns, nearby, has had no rain for the first 17 days of November, the driest to this point since 2019 when, at the time, there were widespread bush fires from November 2019 up to early February 2020 in the eastern states.

If no rain is recorded for the whole of this November, it will be for the first time since 1913 in Cairns.

Another difficult summer followed with bush fires.

In Coonabarabran, the first 17 days of this November have been very dry, with only 2.4mms rainfall; the driest to this point since 2009. If no further rain occurs for the rest of November, it will be the driest since 1980 – when we had a very hot summer.

To date, the mean-maximum temperature in Coonabarabran was 21.1 degrees, more than three degrees above normal, while the mean-minimum temperature of 12.8 degrees was 2.2 degrees above the November normal.

Both figures are the warmest for November since 2009. After a very hot, dry period during the first three weeks of December 2009, very heavy rain set in at Christmas 2009 and continued until 3 January 2010, followed by more heavy rain in early February and mid February of 2010.

Coona girl contributes to North West cricket success Despite suffering a broken nose while practising in the nets only two weeks before, local girl Sarah Whittall travelled to the Sydney suburb of Raby to play in the Combined High Schools’ open girls cricket championships with the North West team, helping the team claim fourth in the competition.

C ou nt r y t e a m s i n th is c ompetition a re always the underdogs, having to overcome long distances, and a lack of regular competitive sp or t i n t hei r home towns. This is compared to the Sydney teams, wh ic h pl ay t o g et her regularly and many of whom come from sports high schools which are dedicated to the sporting a s pi r at io n s o f t he i r students. T he Nor th West cricket team was no exception, combining girls from Tenterfield, Glen Innes, Armidale, Ta mwor t h , I nver el l , Gu n neda h , Na r rabr i a nd C o on aba rabra n , who v i r t u a l ly never played cricket with each other before.

Sarah took a cricket ba l l t o the br idge of her nose when it came off the edge of her bat while practising at the Coonaba rabran town nets two weeks before the competition. She required day surgery to repair the damage s e v e r a l d a y s l a t e r, however, t h i s d id n’t stop her being ready to bat for the North West team and wicket keep du r ing an impor tant 20-over game during the competition.

W h i l e n o t h av i n g the best t ou r nament w it h t he bat , S a r a h was exceptional in the

outfield, saving many runs with her strong and accurate throwing.

She also relieved the wicket keeper for one of the 20-over matches and did a great job for the team.

The North West team received a good draw, playing Western, South Coast and Riverina in their first three games before taking on Sydney South West in the fourth round-robin game.

Having a strong bowling line up, backed up by great fielding, assisted the girls to win all four games, which put them second overall in the competition.

The girls fronted up aga i nst th i rd-placed Sydney East for a spot in the grand final. Bowling first, the girls completed another f ine f ield ing exhibition, rolling the o t h e r t e a m f o r 10 2 r u n s . However, ju s t when the team looked to be cruising towards victory with a run rate required of less than two runs an over and their two best batters at the crease, disaster struck with a dubious umpiring decision giving Sophie Parsons out to a ball she clearly didn’t hit.

From there, the North West team seemed to struggle and fell 20 runs short.

Sydney East went on

to win the competition.

Sophie Parsons went on to win player of the championship and best batting aggregate.

The game for third and fourth was played the following day, and ended w ith a w i n t o Sydney North.

Sarah Whittall was cong ratulated by the North West coach for her camaraderie, dedication and sportsmanship.

Sarah Whittall, of Coonabarabran, competed with the North West cricket team at the Combined High Schools’ open girls cricket championships.

AROUND THE TRAPS WEDNESDAY GOLF Wednesday, 13 November O n Wed nesd ay, 13 November, a good field of competitors attacked the Coonabarabran golf course in a stableford event.

Netballers rise to the top FROM BACK PAGE Jarin’s Warriors This year also saw the debut of Jarin’s Warriors, three teams formed in memory of Jarin Stanton, a young boy from Coonaba rab ran who tragically passed away from cancer earlier this year.

“J a r i n’s Wa r r i o r s i s more than just a group of players,” said Talisha Ku ras, one of the organisers. “ It’s ou r way of

coming together and supporting each other as a family and community in memory of our little warrior and his enduring spirit.”

The Warriors fielded teams in the mi xed opens, under-12s mixed, and 13 -15 yea r s g i r l s d i v i s i o n s , w i t h 21 o f their 32 players being home-grown talent from Coonabarabran.

“Our teams were competitive across all divisions, with wins, strong

performances and close games,” Talisha said.

“It was deadly to see so many local teams represent little old Coona a nd be co m pet it i ve, es p e ci a l l y s i n ce yo u usually only see larger cities field multiple teams.”

Although the mixed o p e n s’ te a m m i s s e d the chance to face off a g a i n s t Yu r r a n d a a l i fo r b ragg i ng r ig hts, Ta l i s h a s a i d t h e t wo teams supported each

other th roughout the tournament.

A weekend to remember The Knockout’s magic lies in its ability to bring communities together.

“The atmosphere is unreal,” Talisha said.

“It’s a great event for all ages and genders to connect, be competitive, and enjoy the sport while having a good laugh.”

Talisha confirmed that Jarin’s Warriors would return in 2025, ensuring

the young boy’s spirit continues to inspire.

F o r Sa m a nt h a, t h e weeken d wa s a l so a glimpse into the future.

“O u r g i r l s w i l l a g e out of the 13-15 division next year, moving up

to the open women’s competition,” Samantha said.

“They’re a tight team and definitely one to watch.”

The achievements of Coonabarabran’s teams

highlight the depth of talent and dedication in the local community.

As Samantha summed up: “It just shows that these country girls are just as capable as their cousins in the city.”

Coona shines at Koori Netball Knockout

The 2024 Koori Netball Knockout in Charlestown, held over the weekend of 26-27 October, celebrated its 20th year with a record-breaking 112 teams competing across five divisions. Among them, five teams from Coonabarabran made their mark, showcasing exceptional talent, sportsmanship and community spirit.

Samantha Thompson, manager of two teams under the Yurrandaali b a n n e r, re f l e c te d on he r long histo r y with the Knockout a n d t h e re m a r ka b l e a ch i eve m e nt s of h e r players.

“This year, we fielded a 13-15 years girls’ team and an open mi xed side,” Samantha said.

“The g i r l s’ team, with players from Coonabarabran, Co o n a m b l e, D u b b o, and Nyngan, performed exceptional ly wel l, making it to the grand final for the first time.”

The 13-15 years girls’ team stunned the competition, defeating Newcastle’s top team, Vo g u ey, 14 -10 i n t h e semi-finals before facing La Perouse in the grand final.

Lead i ng th e g ra nd final at half-time by two points, the girls narrowly went down 9-13.

However, the team’s effort was celebrated, earning them the highly coveted Spi r it Awa rd for demonstrating good sportsmanship.

“Usual ly, the g rand

f i na l i s Vog uey vs La Perouse, so it was amazing for our girls to be there.

“They were true unde rdog s and we re shocked to make it to the grand final, but they gave it everything they had.”

Samantha’s business, SJT Concreting and Civil, sponsored the teams, p rovid i ng un ifo r m s, netball bags, and e s s e nt i a l s u p p l i e s to keep players cool and energised throughout the weekend.

The open mixed team, featuring Coonabarabran ex-pats now l ivi ng i n Sydney, Newcastle and Wagga Wagga, placed seventh overall.

Samantha sa id the eve nt h a d a u n i q u e atmosphere, which was much different than the representative level the 13-15 years girls usually play.

“The Knockout is about family coming together. “ I t ’s a c o m m u n i t y event – no pressure, just play, have fun and enjoy the weekend.”

Veterans’ service recognised Two World War II veterans have been recognised for their military service during a special presentation in Moree to commemorate Remembrance Day. Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton recently presented Certificates of Appreciation to the Moree family of the late Cedric Bede Poole and the late Raymond Victor Abrahams.

“Certificates of Appreciation are

just one way that the Australian government expresses its gratitude to those who have given so much in protecting our country’s interests and helping to restore and maintain peace around the world,” Mr Coulton said.

“We are grateful for the dedication and sacrifice demonstrated by our veterans’ service to Australia, and it’s important to recognise this.

“It was an honour to present these certificates to Cedric Poole’s son and Raymond Abrahams’ stepson David Poole ahead of Remembrance Day – a day all about acknowledging the sacrifices made in service of our country.

“Cedric served in the Australian Army Medical Corps during the Second World War. “Raymond also served during

World War II as a Leading Aircraftman in the Royal Australian Air Force from January 1943 until December 1945.

“Thank you to both Cedric and Raymond for their sacrifice and service. Even though they are no longer with us, it’s lovely for their families to have this memento to pass onto future generations, to remember the role they played in World War II.”

Certificates of Appreciation are available for veterans who have served overseas in Australia’s Defence Forces during the Second World War and in wars, conflicts or peacekeeping operations since, or on the home front during the Second World War. Veterans, or family members of a deceased eligible person, are invited to apply for a certificate from Mr Coulton’s office.

Farmers feed the world NSW Farmers says National Agriculture Day (held on the third Friday of November - this year held on November 15) is a great reminder for all Aussies to focus on who's really feeding their future.

NSW Farmers president Xavier Martin said Australia’s $82 billion agricultural industry was the foundation of the nation’s food security, and would increasingly play a critical role in ensuring global food security into the future.

“In NSW alone, farmers can produce 100 million litres of milk, half a million tonnes of rice, 523,000 tonnes of grapes and 239,000 tonnes of oranges in a single year,” Mr Martin said.

“Aussie agriculture keeps food on the table, clothes on our backs, people in jobs and whole families caring for the land and ensuring food security for generations to come.

YOUR PARTNER IN PRECISION

“It’s a sector with a really positive story – and it’s a story we need to start sharing far and wide, if we want to be able to feed the future.”

There was no time like National Agriculture Day to reflect on how food gets on the nation’s forks, Mr Martin said, with agriculture forming an essential part of everyday life around the planet.

“Your orange juice, Weet Bix, bacon and eggs or cup of tea, those ingredients were all grown on a farm. The fact is we all need a farmer three times a day for breakfast, lunch and dinner, so it’s worth knowing what goes in to growing the healthy, fresh food you get to enjoy day in, day out,” Mr Martin said.

“Our farmers are world leaders, with the sustainability and health credentials of our fresh food second to none, and our fibre is in demand across many different markets.”

Nationals pledge to fix agriculture on National Ag Day Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton and The Nationals candidate for Parkes Jamie Chaffey have pledged to fix what they have described as 10 terrible Labor policies that are harming agriculture in the Parkes electorate.

Mr Coulton and Mr Chaffey made the pledge on National Agriculture Day last week.

Mr Coulton the day is a timely reminder of the important role the agriculture industry plays, providing fresh food and fibre to households across the country and the world.

“Regardless of where you live or what you do, we all rely on agriculture every single day,” Mr Coulton said.

“We're lucky to have the best farmers in the world right here in the Parkes electorate. Our farmers produce top quality food and fibre, all while being the most water efficient and innovative.

“I want to thank all the incredible workers involved in our agriculture industry, from the farmers to the truck drivers, the agronomists and suppliers to the contractors and researchers.

“The Nationals 100 per cent support our agricultural industry, but unfortunately, farmers are struggling to get food from paddock to plate in the Parkes electorate because of what Labor is doing to them.

“Just last week, Senate Estimates revealed the number of Pacific Australia Labour Mobility (PALM) workers in agriculture has fallen by more than 20 per cent, from 21,915 in July 2023 to 16,705 workers in September 2024, because Labor made the scheme unworkable.

“When supply goes down, prices go up, so families are also feeling the pain of what Labor is doing to our ag industry at the checkout.”

Mr Chaffey said National Agriculture Day should be a day of celebrating the wonderful agriculture industry, but farmers are under siege.

“This Labor government has proven time and time again that they don’t care about our farmers or frankly understand our agricultural industry,” Mr Chaffey said.

“From banning the live sheep export trade to water buybacks and funding cuts to roads and regional infrastructure, Labor’s policies are bad for our farmers and are hurting regional, rural and remote communities.

“Only The Nationals, as part of a future Coalition government, will help our farmers on National Agriculture Day and each and every other day of the year.”

The Nationals, as part of a future Coalition government, plan to reinstate the live sheep export trade, bring back the Agriculture Visa and fix Labor’s PALM scheme, stop Labor’s changes to the Murray-Darling Basin, introduce an import container levy so farmers don’t pay for the biosecurity risk created by international competitors, reverse Labor’s cuts to regional infrastructure, stop Labor’s truckie tax and vehicle efficiency standard, create a mix of energy, scrap harmful emissions profiles (or Scope 3), stop Labor’s proposed taxes on superannuation, and ensure the 88-day backpacker work visa remains in place for the agriculture sector.

Your wife is...HOT!!!

The Nationals candidate for Parkes Jamie Chaffey, Leader of The Nationals David Littleproud and federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton have pledged to fix Labor policies that they say are harming agriculture.
