ACHIEVING EXCELLENCE

The power of music prevails Moorambilla has worked its magic yet again, with founder and artistic director of Moorambilla Voices, Michelle Leonard, named the winner of the 2023 NSW/ACT AgriFutures Rural Women’s Award for her work with the multi-arts education program that connects regional youth to creative arts.

by LIZ CUTTS S i n c e 2 0 0 5 Moorambilla Voices has delivered life-changing learning, laughter and creativity to the young people f rom schools throughout north-west NSW. M ichel le , who g r ew up i n C o on a mble a nd trained at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, said the award is a tribute to the many people and communities who have

supported the program for eighteen years. “ The thing that is rea l ly u nusua l a nd i mp or t a nt a b out t h i s awa rd is that a n a r ts or g a n i s at ion i s b ei n g recognised for something that is valuable to the future of reg ional and remote Australia,” Ms Leonard said.

Ms L eonard said Moorambilla is all about shining the spotlight on the talents of regional youth. “ I wa nt the you ng people on stage to shine – this is my greatest joy,” Ms Leonard added.

“Maybe this award can help people understand t h at y o u c a n h av e a full-time job in the arts, that you can create real change and really help c ommu n it ies va lue add culturally and

In August and September each year, over 300 students attend the Moorambilla residency camp in Baradine, where they dance, sing, compose, create, play drums and learn about the cultural

traditions and stories of their landscape. “ We h ave t he mo s t glorious music planned for Moorambilla 2023, as we link the river system f r om t he he ad o f t he Castlereagh right through to the Narren Lakes.

Drones discover Coolah Tops koalas The major discovery of koalas in the Coolah Tops and adjoining bushland has been hailed an “exceptional outcome” by researchers from the National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS).

by GEORGIA SPENCE A lack of koala sightings at Coolah Tops over the years had had left many people questioning the presence of the unique marsupial species in the elevated forest.

However, during the spring last year scientists were drawn to an area of the National Park after hearing the sound of koala bellows.

It was not until NPWS conducted a full survey of the area that they realised the extent of the koala population.

NPWS has recently spent 24 days searching the area with thermal drones, sound devices and conse r vation detection dogs.

Canvassing more than 1000 sites, the new technology proved beneficial in helping identify the endangered species.

Understanding the size and location of the koala population is important t o e n s u r e s p e c i e s s u r v i va l a n d rehabilitation.

Jacki Roberts, from NPWS, said the organisation’s best efforts had been engaged to ensure the safety of the recent discoveries.

T h e ko a l a h a b i ta t t h ro u g h o u t the Coolah Tops is is “perpetually

conserved”, with measures taken to ensure hazard and fire reduction.

“Due to the high elevation, Coolah Tops is less prone to climate change and severe weather events that can negatively impact koala food and shelter trees,” Ms Roberts said.

“The conservation of the area allows other animals to move freely and protected through the land.”

Ms Roberts explained how thermal drones had also detected another threatened species – Greater Gliders.

“An abundance of arboreal species shows the area has high biodiversity value,” she said. “ T h e n u m b e r o f ko a l a s fo u n d throughout the forest supports the balance and growth of the ecosystem.”

The search was organised through the Depa r tment of Planning and Environment (DPE) as part of the NSW Koala Strategy. Along with a state-wide koala count to establish a population baseline, a first for NSW, the DPE also aims to double the koala population by 2050.

by JIMMY WHALAN Gili is an Eora word meaning ‘to shine’; these a r e aw a r d s g i v e n t o students who do just that, “shine”.

Jayden was nominated by his course teacher, Karen Bliss-Cook, who described him as a passion at e a nd pr oud Gamilaroi man who has undertaken a Certificate I I I i n Tou r i sm , w it h a focus on becoming a cultural tourism guide.

“J ay d e n i s a q u i e t a c h i e v e r wh o s p e a k s quietly and confidently from the heart, and he is dedicated to practicing culture and being a mentor and role model for the younger generation,” Ms Bliss-Cook said.

When undertaking his studies, Ms Bliss-Cook s a id Jayd e n e n g a g e d immediately, showing a great interest and passion for sharing his culture and becoming a cultural tour guide. “ He is a great story teller and whilst always being respectful of cultural protocols, Jayden

would share stories of his experiences of culture, taking the other students on a journey; showc a si n g h i s g r e at ability to take people from being observers to being participants,” Ms BlissCook said.

“Jayden is a wonderful role model and outstanding example of a committed student.”

Speaking with Jayden about what it was like to win a Gili Award, he said he felt surprised when he was nominated, let alone becoming a finalist.

“Going to the awards ceremony was an eyeopening experience and definitely an experience to remember,” Jayden said.

“We were lucky enough to participate in a cultural cruise prior to the awards ceremony and the moment they announced my name, I was shocked!

“I appreciate the help of my TAFE teachers – K aren Bliss-Cook and K atr i na Brow n – who helped me through the course.”

Bush medicine brings beauty to mental wellness A recent Wellness Day was an empowering day for local Indigenous women as they pampered themselves under the guidance of Deb Munson.

For Deb Munson, mechanisms to relieve mental stress emanate from creating beauty and wellness products with native plants and ancestral wisdom.

A s t ro n g G o m e ro i woman who hails from Coonabarabran, Mrs Munson was in town on Thursday, 15 June, to share her knowledge f o r W e l l n e s s D a y, which was organised

by Kodi Brady through an outreach program with O range Land Services.

S PAC E G a l l e r y was filled with mostly Indigenous women pamper ing themselves w ith M r s Munson’s products.

The day highlighted the importance of connecting to community and Countr y through nou r i s h i ng se l f- ca re treatments.

Mrs Munson travels al l over the countr y as communities cal l o n h e r to s h a re h e r treatments.

“It is not about sa l es, but to sha re the wonders of bush medicine and the best applications,” she sa id.

The potency of he r t rad itiona l bush medicine was evident

th roughout Wellness Day as the women became more comfor table and co n n ected to each other.

Each individual had the oppor tunity to apply the wellness products as each sense was awakened through smells, textures and laughter.

Weekly cattle and sheep market wrap • Most cattle indicators remained firm, with a steady yarding week-on-week.

• Yardings continue to tighten in the sheep market and the Restocker Lamb indicator strengthened 60¢.

• Slaughter numbers have come back across all species as some processing plants may be heading into their maintenance periods.

Cattle Cattle yardings remained relatively firm at just over 33,000 head.

Most indicators had very little price movement week-on-week. Roma numbers lifted 2,400 head, mostly drawn from the local area. Some cattle from Alice Springs were also at the sale, with good quality and buyer activity.

Dalby had a slightly smaller yarding but there was good buyer activity from exporters and processors. Weight and quality drove the market here.

Feeder steer prices eased 4¢ week-onweek, with Roma only trading 2¢ above the national average and contributing 16%, and Gracemere trading 26¢ under with a 13% contribution. Gracemere had an increase of 1,796 head at the saleyard with cattle drawn from a large area and a large proportion of feeder steers.

The Western Young Cattle Indicator (WYCI) continues to trade at a premium to the Eastern Young Cattle Indicator

(EYCI) with a relatively firm market at Mount Barker. The WYCI currently sits at 644.01¢/kg carcase weight (cwt) with feeders paying the highest premium.

The EYCI strengthened slightly to 567.77¢/kg cwt. Restocker prices improved by 13¢ and are the buyers paying the premium.

Sheep and lambs Yardings have tightened again this week in sheep and lambs to 37,823 and 135,037 head respectively. NSW had a drop of nearly 50% of sheep yarded.

Some grain-finished lambs came through large markets such as Wagga Wagga, which helped to improve the condition of heavier lambs. Lamb numbers at the saleyard increased by nearly 11,000 head with shorn lambs fetching better prices.

T he R estocker L amb ind icator strengthened in price 60¢ week-onweek after a strong increase in price at the top contributing saleyards. Ballarat contributed 28% of throughput, with

restocker lambs at 577¢/kg cwt (78¢ above the national average).

As the older season lambs are sold off, mixed quality through the saleyards is driving price in a less active market.

Slaughter Cattle slaughter came back 2.9% to 120,362 head. This is still 24% above year-ago levels and is the second highest weekly cattle slaughter for the last three years.

Sheep and lamb slaughter have also eased this week, with lambs now only 12,000 head above numbers recorded this time last year. Sheep slaughter eased 1% week-on-week and remains 88% higher year-on-year.

Goat slaughter reached 41,298 head this week, up 173% year-on-year.

Some plants may be going into their winter maintenance periods, which could have an impact on slaughter numbers in the coming weeks. © Meat & Livestock Australia Limited

Baradine LALC opens COONABARABRAN LIBRARY under new CEO The Baradine Local Aboriginal Land Council office is open, with a new chief executive officer (CEO) and plans to elect a new board.

by LIZ CUTTS Months on from the Baradine Local Aboriginal L a nd C ounci l ( L A L C ) being placed in limbo and doors closed, it is once ag a i n op en a nd f u l ly operational.

A nd r ew B owcher, a partner in the accounting a nd consu lti ng f i rm RSM, has been appointed administrator and has been working with the Abor ig inal community to reopen the facility and ensure there is alignment with expectations and needs.

“I have been working with the Baradine LALC members to get operations back up and running,” Mr Bowcher said. “ T hey appoi nt ed a reference group who have been working with me.

“We advertised locally and nationally for the chief executive of f icer position and had numerous applications. “ There was a culling process followed by i nt e r v i e w s , w i t h t h e selection committee choosing Michael Ross as the successful candidate.

“As some would be aware, Michael was a previous Baradine LALC CEO and he has a good knowledge of, and connection to the community.”

Mr Bowcher said the establishment of a new board for the LALC will be the next step.

“Now that the Baradine L A L C of f ic e i s op en , Michael will be working with the members and myself until such time a board is elected,” Mr Bowcher added.

“It makes sense to have

everything in place and working before the board appointment.

“New board members will be given the necessary training and then I will then retire as administrator.

“However, the L A LC has already done a number of things during my time as administrator so far.

Andrew Bowcher has been appointed administrator of Baradine Local Aboriginal Land Council.

“ Members have been working with Inland Rail and also obtained funding assistance for the houses owned by the organisation.

“We have been sending newsletters to members to keep them informed and we are having regular meetings. “ T he whole, w ider c o m mu n i t y h a s b e e n

embracing of the LALC and members have been encouraging and engaged.

“As the only Aboriginal organisation in Baradine, we want the LALC to move forward and be involved in the community.

“I believe the community loses out if they do not have a functioning land council.”

Michael Ross, who has previously held the position, has been appointed CEO of the Baradine LALC.

Times to say goodbye Jayne Murphy, Jimmy Whalan and Emma Harvey have been an integral part of the Coonabarabran Times team for the past nine months.

That’s 37 newspapers, hundreds of stories, and at least a couple of takeaway coffees! Their positions were made possible by Meta and The Walkley Foundation through the Australian Facebook News Fund. As we say farewell to (some of) our colleagues and friends and embrace the notion that “next week will definitely be different”, we decided to sit down for one last Q&A to reflect on our time together.

Indigenous Affairs Reporter

What was the most interesting story you worked on during your time at the paper?

I enjoyed the history stories and learning about the amazing people and events that shaped the town.

What will you miss most about working with the Coona Times team?

The chatter and laughter in the office.

Who out of your colleagues do you think is most likely to end up on the news themselves, and why?

I think Emma will be a foreign correspondent or presenter on a travel show.

What’s something you’re looking forward to?

Wattle 3.0

What was the most interesting stor y you worked on during your time at the paper?

This is a tough one. I think out of all the sto r ies I’ve done, some of the most interesting have been cover ing the eve r- evo l v i n g I n d i g e n o u s Vo i ce to Parliament referendum, working with the Local Aboriginal Land Council and Elders’ groups on stories regarding much needed upgrades at Bur ra Bee Dee cemetery after damages due to adverse weather, theft, and vandalism, as well as recently covering our local Sorry Day commemorations.

Some other stories I particularly enjoyed covering were the opening of the coffee area at popular local boutique, The Lighthouse, and the change of hands at Crystal Kingdom to the Newton family after Nola Bredereck went into her wellearned retirement.

Who out of your colleagues do you think is most likely to end up on the news themselves, and why?

Max Estens, after he rises to fame for his role in local short film ‘Paper Boy’. (If you have no idea what I’m talking about, check out the Coona Times Facebook or the @wattlemagazine Instagram).

What will you miss most about working with the Coona Times team?

I’ll definitely miss our Lighthouse coffee runs on Wednesdays and Thursdays (the highlight of my week) and our postdeadline ritual of saying “good paper” about 50 times before our news meeting.

What’s something you’re looking forward to?

Su r p r i se! I’l l n ow b e co nt i n u i n g my contract at the Coonabarabran Times for the remainder of the year, so looking fo r wa rd to many mo re s to r i es (and coffees!) with the Coona Times team.

Emma Harvey Online Content Creator What was the most interesting story you worked on during your time at the paper?

It’s so tough to narrow it down, but I did have a blast writing The Blow-in blog series for our website. It got me out into the community, doing silly things and exploring what the region has to offer – ballroom dancing in Binnaway, my first rodeo in Tooraweenah, a B&S ball in Baradine. If you ever move to a new town with no connections, I would highly recommend also being a journalist! I’ve met so many wonderful people and fast-tracked so many friendships through this job.

What will you miss most about working with the Coona Times team?

I will miss working alongside such brilliant, hilarious, hard-working people. Live in Coona long enough and you’ll hear time and time again just how respected and valued the Estens/Brittons are.

Kait and Lynne work their butts off each week after week to produce a superb local rag and the community is noticeably stronger for it.

Also, launching a BEAUTIFUL print magazine like ‘wattle’, in a small country town, in this economy?

Crazy, amazing people. I’ll miss being a small part of it all.

Who out of your colleagues do you think is most likely to end up on the news themselves?

Lynne Estens, when she inevitably wins the next season of Alone Australia. Surviving months alone in the remote wilderness? Piece of cake compared to producing a newspaper every week for 20+ years. Frankly, she could use the holiday.

What’s something you’re looking forward to?

Big overseas adventures to come! Maybe I’ll write a blog about it – The Blow-in: Europe edition.

“Council sought feedback from the community in relation to the proposed Operational Plan.

“Council appreciated the feedback that was received, this is a good opportunity to understand what the priorities are for the community.”

Included in the 2023/24 Operational Plan is: • Road and bridges flood restoration – ($10.5M) • Water ($4.1M), Sewer ($4.3M) and Waste Services ($50K) capital related improvements • Plant and equipment improvement and renewal – ($2.7M) • Urban Services including town streets related works (includes trees/gardens, footpaths, kerb and gutter, drainage, pavements), ovals, parks, swimming pools and other amenities improvements ($3.4M) • Roads improvement and renewal – Stage 1 – State Forest Road, Coolah – ($1.94M) • Improvements to Council offices and other property, public halls and cemetery equipment improvements – ($1.5M) • Tourism and

development related improvements – ($750K) To fund these works, as well as ongoing services and activities, Council has adopted a small increase in rates, fees and charges in 2023/24.

“We understand the past few years have been difficult for some of our community members and increases have been kept as low as possible, while at the same time recognising the need for necessary works to be carried out to our infrastructure,” Cr Doolan explained.

The new financial year fees and charges for Council were also adopted as part of the 2023/2024 Revenue Policy and they can be found on Council’s website under the Integrated Planning and Reporting Tab at: warrumbungle.nsw.gov.au

FREE MICROCHIPPING DAYS A program to provide dogs and cats w ith free microchipping i s r et u r n i ng i n 2 0 2 3 , g reat news for animal owners throughout the Warrumbungle Shire. “ F ree microchipping days across the towns t h r oug hout t he S h i r e have become an annual program due to the success of previous microchipping events and go a long way to ensuring dogs and cats are able to be identified if lost,” said Warrumbungle S h i r e C ou nc i l m ayor, Ambrose Doolan.

“Council is encouraging pet owners to bring their dogs and cats to any of the clinics that will be set

up in the leash free areas around the Shire to be microchipped.

“Having your animals microchipped not only benefits the animal and pet owner, but also the community. “ W hen an animal escapes, or is missing, the most reliable way to identify the animal is for compliance officers to scan their microchip, allowing the animal to be returned to their owner quickly and safely.”

In NSW, all cats and dogs, other than exempt cats and dogs, must be microchipped by 12 weeks of age or before being sold, whichever happens first.

“ B ook ings a re not r e q u i r e d , however, i f you would like to contact Council and obtain the for m t o b e c omplet e d

prior to the microchipping day please call into the Coonabarabran or Coolah office to pick up a form,” said Cr Doolan.

FREE MICROCHIPPING CLINICS Binnaway – Thursday, 22 June 2023: 10.00am to 11.30am, leash-free area at the Camp Ground.

Coolah – Thursday, 22 June 2023: 2.00pm to 3.30pm, leash-free area at the corner of Charles and Binnia Streets.

Dunedoo – Tuesday, 27 June: 10.00am to 11.30am, leash-free area at Milling Park.

Mendooran – Tuesday, 27 June: 2.00pm to 3.30pm, leash-free area at the Riverside Camp Ground.

MULCHING AT TIPS Reducing landfill and reusing waste products is an important function of Warrumbungle Shire Council’s waste facilities, not only for the obvious environmental benefits, but also to reduce the fire risk of green waste stockpiles.

“Over the last few years Council has implemented an ongoi ng prog ram t o r eu s e g r e en wa st e deposited at landfill and waste transfer stations,” said Warrumbungle Shire Council mayor, councillor Ambrose Doolan. “ T h i s pr o g r a m h a s seen stockpiles of green waste turned into useful, environmentally-friendly product.” “ T he g reen waste is mulched into smaller sized particles, which are used at the transfer stations to cover and re-cap the

old landfill layers. This re-purposed product helps the old landfill to break down naturally and the mulch product poses no harm to the environment,” explained Cr Doolan. “ This is also a great initiative to reduce the risk of fire breaking out within landfill and waste transfer sites.”

WEATHER WATCH The first fortnight of Ju ne wa s not ewor t hy weather wise, because maximum temperatures h av e av e r a g e d t h r e e degrees or more above normal for June across about three-quarters of the nation.

A t Wa nga rat t a , Benalla and Rutherglen, maximum temperatures wer e on ly one t o t wo degrees above the June normal, but the meanminimum temperatures were about four degrees above normal, due mainly to days of overcast skies and above average rainfall.

T he mea n-mi n imum temperature at Wangaratta, Benalla and Rutherglen of 6.5, 7.1 and 6.6, respectively, were all

the highest for the first fortnight in June since 1991. ( Just before my twin grandchildren, Benjamin and Jessica, were born on 20 June 1991).

M a x i m u m temperatures for the first fortnight of June were five degrees above normal at quite a few places in outback Queensland.

At Longreach, the meanmaximum temperature of 28.6 was the highest on record going back to 1897.

A t C h a rlev i l le , t he mean maximum of 25.2 was the highest since 25.6 in 1919.

B oth Blacka l l a nd Ba rca ld i ne recorded their warmest ever first fortnight of June. Previous record highs were in 1919, 1957 and 1991 at both

green waste stock piles at Mendooran, Baradine, Binnaway, Coolah and Dunedoo transfer stations, and the Coonabarabran landfill.

“It is important that Council looks to the future of our communities, reusing and re-purposing products from waste facilities like this has benefits all-round,” concluded Cr Doolan.

these places.

A lice Spr ings has recorded its fourth warmest first fortnight of June in 143 years of records; the warmer ones were 1919, 1953 and 1957.

It h a s b e en a ve r y d i f fer ent sit u at ion i n Per th , wh ich has had nearly 200mms rainfall during the first fortnight of June; the third wettest behind 1934 and 1890.

Two other very wet periods did occur in 192 0 and 1923.

The heavy rain in Perth has resulted in maximum temperatures for the first fortnight of June being 1.5 degrees below normal. It was the coldest for the first fortnight of June since 1973. Other colder first fortnights of June were in 1887, 1898, 1908, 1916, 1917, 1931, 1953, 1955, 1956.

All but 1898 and 1908 certainly led to a wetter than average year in the eastern states, but I have reasons to follow that of 1898 , 19 08 , 1919. T he spring seasons of these three were very dry and much hotter than usual, continuing into December.

DAMAGING INCREASE IN EMERGENCY SERVICES LEVY Warrumbungle Shire Council has called for urgent action from the NS W G over n ment t o r ever s e t he h i g h ly d a mag i ng i ncrease i n the Emergency Services Levy (ESL) that has been imposed on all councils without warning for the 2023/24 financial year. “ T he E S L i s a c o st imposed on councils and insurance policy holders to fund the emergency services budget in NSW,” said Warrumbungle Shire Council mayor, councillor Ambrose Doolan.

“The NSW Government has made a last-minute a n nou ncement that it i s s c r appi n g t he E S L subsidy for councils, which forces councils to wear

significantly higher costs than expected and comes after Council has already publicly advertised its annual budget.”

“The levy increase for the state’s 128 councils in 2023/24 amounts to almost $77 million, or an increase of 53.1 per cent, which completely dwarfs the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) baseline rate peg of 3.7 per cent,” explained Cr Doolan.

“At this stage of the year, with annual budgets a l ready prepa red a nd advertised to the public, NSW councils will have no option other than to make cuts to infrastructure and services expenditure.”

C r D o ol a n sa id , for

Wa r r u m bu n g l e S h i r e C ou nci l , the E S L has increased by $28,778 for the 2 0 2 3 / 2 4 f i na ncia l year, bringing the total Council contribution to $794,468.

“This amounts to 9.15 per cent of the expected increase in rate income for next year,” he said. “ The timing of th is development is particularly challenging; not only coming so late in the local government budgeting cycle, but also placing extra pressure on c ou nci l budgets as they struggle from the combi ned impact of the pandemic, extreme we at her e vent s , h i g h in f lation and wage increases.

“ C ou nci l suppor ts a well-funded emergency services sector and values the critical contribution of emergency ser v ices workers and volunteers, many of whom a re councillors and staff. “ However, these services must be suppor t ed th rough a n equitable, transparent and sustainable funding model.

“Council is calling on the NSW Government to restore the ESL subsidy, separate the ESL from the rate peg and enable councils to recover the full cost, and develop a fairer method of funding cr itica l ly impor ta nt emergency ser v ices,” concluded Cr Doolan.

Much ado about Shakespeare Last week, Coonabarabran High School (CHS) students performed in their annual Shakespeare Festival.

scenes and insights that c a n’t qu it e b e ga i ne d simply by read ing the text.

“Shakespeare is meant t o be per formed a nd that’s when it becomes more engag ing and interesting,” Ms Blazely said.

“I think that sometimes Shakespeare has the risk of be c om i ng mu nd a ne when you forget that it’s meant to be performed.”

Ms Blazely added th at the S h a kespe a r e Festival allows students to get involved, building teamwork and confidence in their speaking. “ We w a n t t o b u i l d l i felon g le a r ner s a nd sometimes it’s the out-ofthe-classroom learning that becomes the most memorable.”

Outstanding performances T h i s ye a r, t h r e e of S h a k e s p e a r e ’s p l a y s were performed at the

Ella Atkinson, Tahni Bowmaker, Amelia Morrison (the ghost of King Duncan appears at a feast).

Jack Foster, Riley Fleming, Wyatt Ernest (King Lear shouts at Cordelia and a doctor).

Sha kespea re Festiva l: Romeo and Juliet by Year 9, Macbeth by Year 10, and King Lear by Year 11 Advanced.

Ms Blazely said c on sider i ng the ma ny excellent performances, a standout was Maggie Shannon and Cheyenne Nei lsen’s per forma nce of the famous ba lcony scene in Romeo and Juliet, describing Maggie as “utterly f lawless” as Juliet. “ S he wa s demu r e , innocent, and calm, and brought a presence t o the role where, I think, a lot of other t eenage actors go for the dramatic performance – but Maggie really understood who Juliet was.”

For her performance, M a g g i e w a s aw a r d e d Junior Shakespearean of the Year as well as Best Actor for Year 9.

Maggie and Cheyenne were also awarded Best Scene for Year 9 and the overall Champion Scene.

A nother outstanding performance was d e l i v e r e d by Ye a r 11 student, Cameron Whittall.

Ms Blazely said due to a few students absent on the day, Cameron stood i n at t he l a st m i nut e and despite hav ing no rehearsal time, he was a standout performer in roles he wasn’t supposed to play. “ C a m e r o n ’ s characterisation of the fool in K ing L ear was f l awle s s ,” M s Bl a z ely said.

“In the most complimentary way...he was a fool!”

In his own scene, Cameron played Edgar as he led Gloucester up the hill to jump of a ‘cliff’.

Performing alongside Dustyn Owers and Isaac Menz, this scene earned Cameron and his fellow performers Best Scene for Year 11.

Cameron’s efforts also saw him awarded Senior Sha kespea rea n of the Year as well as the Best Impromptu Award for his improvisation skills.

Ms Blazely also gave c ompl i ment s t o Yea r 11’s Jack Foster, whose rendition of King Lear waking up to see Cordelia she described as “heartbreaking” and “passionate.”

Ja c k ’s p e r fo r m a n c e earned him Best Actor for Year 11.

F r o m Ye a r 10 , M s Blazely said there were two outstanding scenes, both involv ing the witches, with the Best

Our keenly awaited first eggs have arrived!

Our chickens have settled in nicely and are now starting to lay. At present, the free-range eggs will be used in the kitchen garden program, used for canteen and shared with families.

In addition to the feed mix, our school fruit and food scraps are being collected for our chickens.

Ag@Toora With cooking lessons in our Ag @ Toora kicking up a notch, last Thursday students enjoyed making rice paper rolls in class with Mrs Jenkin.

Students peeled, chopped, and grated their

fresh ingredients and greatly enjoyed creating a tasty snack with these healthy foods.

STEM T4L This week will be the last week with the STEM T4L kit here at Tooraweenah before it is returned to the T4L Library.

Students have learned many skills in coding, following step-by-step instructions and visual literacy skills using these Lego Spike Essential Kits.

We look forward to borrowing the kit again in the future. The next kit we are borrowing will arrive early in term three and is a new kit called ‘Aeroponics’.

Coonabarabran Public Dance Festival Despite the frosty, crisp morning departure, the bus to Bathurst got away on time. Aboard were 15 wildly excited and slightly nervous dancers from CPS, Mrs Madi K itchin and Mrs Mel Evans – off to participate in the Western N S W Da nc e Fest iva l , which was held at Bathurst Memorial Entertainment Centre.

The dance festival is an annual event that has been performed for over 20 years. Students across the west from both public primary and high schools have the opportunity to showcase their talent in a matinee and night-time concert. What a thrill for our students to be a part of.

C o st u me s , m a keup, lights and plenty of action were the order of the day.

The girls danced to an upbeat version of the Lion King, which allowed them to perform both hip hop and acrobatical moves. They were outfitted stunningly a s t r iba l wa r r ior s i n animal-print costumes.

Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the experience and were wonder f ul ambassadors for our school;

smiling and being gracious at every opportunity.

Stage 3 had informative and interesting lessons on alcohol use and its

effects on the body and the community under the topic of ‘Think Twice’.

Kindergarten learned about the importance of a healthy body, Year 1 – healthy emotions, and Year

Warrumbungle National Park: Part 4 In regards to establishing a Nat ion a l Pa rk i n t he Warrumbungles, o n s i d e r a bl e p r e s s u r e was brought to bear on the Lands Department and the Minister by the C o on aba r abr a n S h i r e Council, together with various conservation and other interested groups.

Also submitted was an offer by Mr A. J. Pincham by way of gift of an area of approximately 4000 acres, which contained the finest scenery in the area.

On 4 March 1947, Mr J. B. Renshaw, M.L.A., the parliamentary representative for the area, led a deputation to the Premier concerning the establishment of a national park.

M r McKel l stated t h at t h e m at t e r w a s one principally for the Minister for Lands, but said the proclamation of the area as a national park was a number-one priority.

The Lands Department, however, reiterated that owing to work of a higher government priority, the necessary surveys and valuations could not be effected.

T he C o onaba rabra n Shire Council drew attention in April 1948 to the fact that timber cutting licences were still bei ng issued a nd that depr ed at ion s of these operations were seriously deplet i ng the n at u ra l

beauties of the area.

At this time the For e s t r y C om m i s s ion agreed not to issue any further forestry licenses over the area required for the national park.

M r R e n s h aw l e d a f u r t her deput at ion t o the Minister for Lands (Hon. W. F. Sheahan) on 4 May, 1948. Following this meeting the Minister directed the Department t o c a r r y out a l l work necessary to establish the pa rk w ith i n two years from the date of the deputation on 4 May, 1950.

The inspections were carried out late in 1950 and the surveyor reported that M r P incham, the holder of a Crown Lease, agreed to the withdrawal of about 6600 acres from his area and Mr Leo Gale, the holder of a Settlement L e a s e , a g r e e d t o t he surrender of about 2300 acres from his lease.

By this time Mr J. B. R en s h aw h ad b e c ome Minister for Lands and directed expedition i n getti ng the pa rk established.

Finally, on 4 September, 1952, the Minister agreed to the taking of action to w ithd raw a nd reser ve lands, this action being required before the park could be by Government Gazette Notification of 19 December, 1952.

So, not only was Myles Dunphy responsible for maintaining an interest

i n the Wa r r u mbu ngle Nationa l Pa rk, a nd preparing the submission for its establishment to the State Government, he was also responsible for placing strange druidic names onto many of the park’s mountains.

And, rather than having an Aboriginal name for the highest mountain, Wambelong, he misnamed it Mt Exmouth – when Mt Bullaway was the original Mt Exmouth.

O n c e t he p a rk wa s gazetted, four other people were mainly responsible for its preliminary development , n a mely, Alan Strom, Alec Gould, Keith Blackman and Roy Quinton.

1953 – creation of the Park Reserves Further complications delayed the f inal reser vation for publ ic recreation for some 12 months, but ultimately, late in 1953, the following reservations appeared in issues of the Government Gazette: • R eser ve 76 ,357 o f a b o ut 8 3 0 0 a c r e s , Parishes of Caraghnan and Naman, County of Gowen, notified in the Government Gazette of 4 December, 1953.

• R eser ve 76 ,359 of about 1400 acres, Parish of Caraghnan, County of Gowen, notified in the Government Gazette of 30 October, 1953.

• R eser ve 76 ,36 0 of about 4285 acres, Parishes

of L esl ie, U kerba rley, Wheoh, Nandi and Timor, C ou nt ie s of B a r ad i ne and Gowen, notified in Government Gazette of 30 October, 1953.

Total a rea, about 13,985 acres.

It was approved that the area reserved would be known as the Warrumbungle National Park. Therefore, after a patient wait of 17 years, the hopes and dreams of the National Parks and Primitive Areas Council were realised.

T he T r u s t h ad t he following areas for future development as early as 1973. The service may have had these in mind; however, the following a reas in genera l were recommended: a. P roperty between Top Walga and Yootha. b. Extension to include Mt Bullaway. c. Extension to include Mt Urangery and Fossil beds nearby. d. Extension to include all Bugaldie Mountains. e . M c B e t h ’s w h o l e property. f. Extension of southern and eastern boundaries between Spire, TV Tower and Weston’s mountain by appr ox i mat ely one kilometre to include whole of tops of Mt Naman.

All of these areas are now included in the park, except McBeth’s whole property.

An area of about 14,700 acres was temporar ily

reserved and exempted from sale by Reservation No. 75,526. T he lands i nv ol v e d we r e i n t he Parishes of Caraghnan, Naman, T imor, Nandi, Leslie, W heoh and Ukerbarley Summary A proposal to reserve the more scenic parts of the Warrumbungle Range as the Wa r r u mbu ngle Nationa l Monument was f i rst i n itiat ed by

the National Parks and Primitive Areas Council in 1936.

A national park was not declared until 1953 when 3360 hectares of privately owned land were reserved a s Wa r r u mbu n g le National Park.

In 1961, a reassessment of the park led to revocation of the original reserve and renotification of about 3240 hectares as a Reserve for

Public Recreation.

T he Nationa l Pa rks and Wildlife Act 1967 reestablished the reserve as a national park and added a further 2995 hectares to the park, making a total of about 6235 hectares.

Since then, additional lands on the boundary of the park have been added, resulting in a present park area of 23,312 hectares.

John Whitehead

Jack Renshaw indicated one of his approvals as Minister, urging “early action”.

Kookas score rare win at Wellington The Coonabarabran Kookaburras rugby union team remain undefeated in this this year’s premiership following a scratchy performance against Wellington on Saturday, where the result was in doubt up until the 70th minute

RUGBY UNION A fter some research I can con f i rm that Coonabarabran has now defeated Wellington for only the second time in 24 years at the Redbacks’ home ground, since moving from Western Plains to

joi n the Centra l West competition in 1999 – with the only other win being in 2020.

M o s t o f S at u r d ay ’s game was evenly poised, as both teams played well in patches. Coonabarabran had lineout trouble most of the game and also allowed Wellington to steal some

of their ball at the break down. But our local boys stood up when they had to and scored four tries to two in a very physical match – particularly in the second ha l f when Wel l i ng t on held onto the ball for long periods and were well on top.

A ll credit to the Kookaburras’ defence to withstand the Redbacks’ hard-hitting clean outs and dogged runs, in particular, Luke Michael, who was inspi rational w ith his backline defence.

W hen the Kookas were leading 19-12, John Milgate made a determined run and managed to put in a delightful well-weighted grubber kick 20 metres out.

Heavy traffic then rolled the ball one metre in goal and one metre from touch for Matt Walton to clutch onto and score – putting the game out of reach for Wellington.

I don’t know who, apart from his mother, would k n ow J oh n’s a g e but whatever it is he certainly gets better every year! If he can play long enough, Wallaby selectors will be asking for his phone number one day in the future.

This weekend will be an intriguing game at Coolah, who had a surprise loss to Molong last Saturday. Now, with four clubs within five points of each on the ladder, a loss to the Kookaburras

could see Coolah drop from second place to fifth, so I am sure it will be worth the petrol to travel to Coolah this Saturday to witness a very competitive game.

AROUND THE TRAPS LADIES’ GOLF Apologies for missing last week’s publication of the ladies golfing results.

Public holidays always catch me off guard.

As was printed in last week’s Times, the magical combination of Michelle Johnston and Jane McWhirter brought them into the winning circle once again, when they won the Open Foursomes Championships from a field of 82 players at the N & NW District Ladies Golf Association Annual Tournament.

It was a lovely photo and great golf.

Congratulations, we are very proud of you both.

Michelle is an exCoonabarabran resident, being the daughter of Val and Ron Gardiner, who were also great golfers.

Wednesday 7th, Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th June the girls competed in a stableford event and the overall winner was Michelle Murphy with 38 points.

Judy Williams picked up a new ball with 36 points.

On Wednesday 14th and Saturday 17th June a par event was played, round three, sponsored by Dafter’s Butchery.

Wednesday’s winner was Michelle Murphy, scoring -5, but was rounded up by Lou Dowsett on Saturday with a score of -2.

Cis Bruce won a nearest the pin prize on the Wednesday on the 4/13th hole, and Jane McWhirter followed suit on the same hole on Saturday.

Sandra McCaw also collected a ball on the 17th hole with a mighty shot to finish a metre from the

hole and sinking the putt.

Well done Sandra.

The lady golfers sincerely thank Wall and Emma Dafter for their generous sponsorship each year. There is always solid competition to win this coveted trophy.

A stableford event, round three, for the Betty Forbes Memorial commenced on Wednesday, 21st June, and continues on Saturday and Sunday 24-25th June, sponsored by the Forbes family.

To date the weather has been very kind so, hopefully, it will remain so for this event.

On Saturday, 24th

June, a matchplay, round two, will be played in conjunction with the stableford event.

Monday, 26th June – Pennants, round 4, against Narrabri at Gunnedah. We wish our team the best of luck.

Humour Two cows, Dolly and Daisy, are standing next to each other in a field.

Dolly says, “I was artificially inseminated this morning.”

“I don’t believe you” says Daisy.

“It’s absolutely true” insists Dolly, “No bull.”

It is history now that they achieved neither, with the green and whites taking the honours in both games, beginning with a thrilling defence of the Skinner Cup in the opening match.

Both these teams were undefeated and on equal footing at the top of the table going into the highly-anticipated clash. And what a game it turned out to be, with

League golden era reunion On August 18, 1973, a game of junior rugby league made headlines...

By BILL POULOS

Players, coaching staff and supporters from a golden era of rugby league will converge on Moree in August to remember and celebrate one of the town’s most cherished sporting achievements.

On August 18, 1973, a game of junior rugby league made headlines around the country when Moree High School’s open-weight football team defeated Forbes High School in the coveted University Shield grand-final.

This group of mates who became lifelong blood brothers were catapulted to the top of schoolboy rugby league’s food chain when, amid unparalleled pomp and pageantry, the prized University Shield was brought home to Moree for the first time.

Moree High School was one of 184 schools competing in an elite knock-out competition steeped in tradition.

Captained by the late Terry Quinn, who in later years would become CEO of NSW Country Rugby League, Moree High’s openweight squad took on all-comers and soundly defeated them.

Mungindi OAM:

Distinguished service to RFS recognised in King’s Honours Mungindi’s Senior Deputy Captain Linda Mary Riley, Namoi-Gwydir District, is one of eight Rural Fire Service members awarded Australian Fire Service Medals (AFSM) to recognise their dedication and hard work.

The Australian Fire Service Medal is awarded as part of the King’s Birthday Honours List for distinguished service by a member of an Australian fire service and is the highest RFS award.

Mrs Riley joined the Mungindi Brigade in 1992, taking on the role of deputy captain that same year, and became captain a few years later.

She remained in that position until 2001 when she assumed the role of Senior Deputy Captain which she has held to this day.

In 2022 she shared in the Rural Fire Service Commissioner’s Unit Citation for Service awarded to the Mungindi Brigade for their efforts during shop fires in Mungindi in September 2020.

The major fire destroyed the

Her actions and those of the Mungindi Brigade prevented a major loss becoming catastrophic town’s supermarket and had a significant impact on business and the community.

“Mrs Riley was instrumental in supporting her captain and brigade through her personal actions which are credited with limiting the spread of fire to adjoining businesses” the award citation said.

“Her actions and those of the Mungindi Brigade prevented a major loss becoming catastrophic for that community.

“In addition to Mrs Riley’s long-standing commitment to operational activities and senior

leadership roles, she has contributed more broadly to the work of RFS in her roles as a Permit Officer, Brigade Treasurer, Secretary and Training Officer.

She helped establish breathing apparatus and rescue capabilities within her Brigade.

“One of Mrs Riley’s most distinguishing and admirable traits is related to her profession as a nurse.

“She is acknowledged as being a source of calm reassurance and unwavering support for her captain and the brigade in all their challenges and endeavours.

“She is known for being a quiet achiever especially during medical emergencies.

Coonabarabran OAM:

Astronomer Donna Burton, OAM.

Coonabarabran’s Siding Springs Observatory astronomer Donna Burton was recognised in the 2023 King’s Birthday Honours list, awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia for her service to science, particularly astronomy.

“I am totally blown away and humbled by it because I’m getting an award for doing what I love to do – I love to talk about the sky and astronomy,” she said.

Known locally as “Donna the Astronomer”, Ms Burton has shown thousands of people the wonders of the southern sky, but is also the chair of the Chamber of Commerce and an Australia Day Ambassador among other roles.

Among her interests are long term climate change as related to solar activity cycles, the formation and evolution of our solar system, space missions and the study of those solar system objects beyond Neptune.

She is also a commercial pilot, flying instructor and self employed Computer Technician.

Cracker night goes off with a bang in Rowena The small but mighty village of Rowena punches well above its weight, hosting one of the North West region’s most spectacular events.

The famous June long weekend cracker night went off with a bang again attracting a large crowd and entertaining locals, tourists, friends, and families on Sunday June 11.

“The night was amazing, around 1700 through the gate,” said one of the committee members and organisers Zoe Palmer.

“People came from just everywhere - we have never seen so many caravans in Rowena at one

time.

“Our supper table was a hit again with the famous Wendy (Burrell) sponge cakes.

The fireworks show was absolutely brilliant, so many ‘aaawww’ moments that could be heard from the huge crowd.

As well as lighting up the beautiful big bush sky, the popular event is a fundraiser for the Rowena Preschool and Public School.

The committee members said they were “absolutely blown away” with the support and turnout at this year’s event, receiving so many “wonderful and warm” comments about the night.

Golden era revisited Continued from page 1

The team – ranging in ages from 15 to 18 – defied the odds and united a town as the quest for schoolboy rugby league’s holy grail edged closer.

Moree delivered hidings to Warialda (48-6), Tenterfield (59-2), Armidale (20-6), Tamworth (14-2) Maitland (275), Lismore (44-10) and Newcastle (2610) to set up a date with Forbes High School on the central coast.

The University Shield grand-final at Gosford’s Graham Park on August 18, 1973 was the day of the underdog, and a defining moment in Moree’s sporting and civic pride.

An 8000-strong crowd filed through the turnstiles to watch the game, at the time a record for the venue.

Moree High School came from behind to snatch a 13-12 win and cement a permanent place in NSW rugby

league history books.

Now, 50 years later, surviving members of the University Shield squad as well as players who wore the Moree jersey with pride at different levels of competition during the 1970s – long regarded as a golden age of rugby league in Moree – will scrum down on August 18-19-20 to reunite and remember.

Organiser Mike Hadfield expects hundreds of people to roll into town for the 50-year reunion.

“We’ve had several reunions over the years, but I’m sure this will be the biggest – it’s an important milestone in Moree’s history,” Mr Hadfield said.

“And it’s not just about the Moree High School University Shield team, but about all the players and families from that era – the 1970s was an incredible decade of sport in Moree,

especially rugby league.”

Organisers want the three-day reunion to be about returning to where it all started, and a chance for former ‘Moree-ites’ to come home and catch up with family and friends.

“The focus, of course, will be rugby league, especially the University Shield-winning team, but it’s also about Moree people getting together for a weekend of memories,” Mr Hadfield said.

(Former Moree residents wishing to return for the three-day reunion can contact Mike Hadfield on 0417 482 359 or emailing mike. hadfield5@bigpond.com.)

June 22-28, 2023

National torch relay marks the centenary of Legacy A round the world relay to promote the centenary of Legacy is now underway.

The Legacy Centenary Torch Relay 2023 started on April 23 in Pozières France and the Centenary Torch is now traveling, stopping at all 44 Legacy Clubs in Australia.

The torch will arrive in Tamworth, the nearest Legacy centre in the North West on July 4 where a celebration will be held.

While Tamworth will be the regional epicentre for centenary commemoration events, encompassing Narrabri, Boggabri and Gunnedah with Moree Legacy under the Sydney umbrella, there will be a community awareness function in some local centres at the same time.

The Legacy Centenary Torch is making a six month journey around Australia. The torch arrived in Toowoomba on June 14.

In 1923, Legacy made a promise to help veterans’ families carry on with their lives after the loss

or injury of their loved one in wars, long time Narrabri Legacy supporter Helen Stoltenberg said.

“It was a promise that Legacy keeps today, providing the same stability, guidance and assistance that a partner would normally provide to his or her family.”

King Charles gave The Legacy Centenary Torch Relay a royal welcome when it visited Buckingham Palace, marking the start of its journey though London before landing in Australia. His Majesty attended the event to watch the Torch bearers light the flame outside Buckingham Palace to mark the start of the relay in London. He was joined by veterans, widows and children from the London Legacy Club as well as volunteers who help support these families His Majesty was presented with a Legacy commemorative torch in the Quadrangle by Australian Victoria Cross recipient Daniel Keighran.

Long serving Narrabri Legacy supporter Helen Stoltenberg.

Scammers innovative and always active Phone and text scammers are always ramping up their criminal activities and introducing new scams.

Scamwatch, operated by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, is a valuable service for consumers.

Scamwatch keeps a running tally of the millions of dollars phone and online scammers steal from people and offers advice on self protection.

“Scams target people of all backgrounds, ages and income levels across Australia” Scamwatch warns.

“There’s no one group of people who are more likely to become a victim of a scam, all of us may be vulnerable to a scam at some time.

“Scams succeed because they

look like the real thing and catch you off guard when you’re not expecting it.

“Scammers are getting smarter and taking advantage of new technology, new products or services and major events to create believable stories that will convince you to give them your money or personal details.

“Be alert to the fact that scams exist.

“When dealing with uninvited contacts from people or businesses, whether it’s over the phone, by mail, email, in person or on a social networking site, always consider the possibility that the approach may be a scam.

“Remember, if it looks too good to be true, it probably is.”

A Narrabri man has highlighted

his recent experience and offered a reminder that people be alert to scams.

He received a phone call enquiring about $300 cash he had just taken out of his account, and the caller mentioned an alleged overseas transfer of a much larger amount.

“I had actually withdrawn the same amount just a few hours previously at an ATM. “The following Monday at 10.30pm I got a phone call from my brother in Perth.

“He wanted to know if I had been text messaging him about a transfer of the larger amount on Facebook.

“He said it had my photo and details on the Facebook page and information about a transfer which I

hadn’t done.

“They evidently have access to my information and they knew I had made a withdrawal from the ATM within two hours after I did it.”

He reported the scam to authorities.

“How did the scammers get that information?” he wonders.

“I just want to remind people to be aware.

“It is frightening what scammers can do.”

“If you’ve lost money to a scam or given out your personal details to a scammer, you’re unlikely to get your money back” Scam Watch advises.

“However there are steps you can take straight away to limit the damage and protect yourself.”

The more people are aware, the better protection they have There is comprehensive information on scams and things to be alert for on the Scamwatch website.

Among the warnings, Scamwatch lists and details ‘the 12 Latest Scams You Need To Know: . The “pig butchering” scam. . Student loan forgiveness scams. . Damaged used cars sales. . Google Voice verification code scams. . Zelle, Venmo, and Cash App Scams. . Robocalls attempting to steal 2FA codes. . Work-from-home scams. . Amazon imposter scams.
