Monster black hole devouring one sun every day The discovery of a supermassive black hole by researchers at Siding Spring Observatory has garnered media attention across the globe.

Aus t ra l i a n N at i ona l University (ANU) researchers first detected the b lack hole using the 2.3 metre telescope on top of the Warrumbungles.

T h e re s e a rc h te a m then turned to the largest telescope in the world to confirm the full nature of the black hole and its mass. This telescope was European Southern O b s e r v a t o r y ’s ( E S O ) Ver y Large Telescope, in Chile.

The black hole is of f i ci a l l y k n ow n a s a ‘quasar’.

Quasars are defined as the bright cores of distant galaxies, powered by supe r mas sive b lack holes.

A s soci ate Profes so r C h r i s t i a n Wo l f, l e a d author from ANU, expressed doubt that the record is likely to ever be surpassed.

The black hole devours the equivalent of one sun every day and is the most l uminous k nown object in the universe. Its light has travelled over 12 billion years to reach Earth.

“The incredible rate of growth also means huge releases of light and heat. It is 500 trillion times brighter than our sun,” Professor Wolf said.

“It looks like a gigantic and magnetic storm cell w it h te m p e rat u res of 10,000 degrees Celsius, l i g htn i ng eve r y w he re and winds blowing so fast they would go around Earth in a second.

“This storm cell is seven light years across, which is 50 per cent more than the distance from our solar system to the next star in the Galaxy – alpha

Centauri.”

The intense radiation i s accred ited to an accretion disc around the black hole.

An accretion d i sk holds the matter waiting to be consumed by the black hole and, once there, very little material escapes.

The jou r na l a r ticle, published in Nature Astronomy, found the black hole was 15 to 20

billion times the mass of the sun.

Dr Christopher Onken, co-author and astronomer at ANU, said the object was depicted in images from the ESO Schmidt Southern Sk y Survey, dating back to 1980.

However, it was not recognised as a quasar, until now.

“It was hidden in plain s ig ht – it ha s l ite ra l l y

been staring us in the face,” Dr Onken said. “ I t’s a s u r p r i s e i t remained undetected until now, given what we know about many other, less imp ressive black holes.”

Satellites had previously determined the object too bright to be a quasar, suggesting it to be a star instead.

Finding quasars requires precise

encountered.

This can limit the p ro g ra m a s i t m i g ht re j e ct a q u a s a r, especially if it is more luminous than anything el se obse r ved, and classify it as a star.

Finding and studying supe r ma s s i ve b l ack holes has the potential to shed light on some mysteries of the early universe.

This could include how

observational data from large areas of the sky.

The data is so large, researchers use machine-learning tools to analyse the difference between quasars and other celestial objects.

The machines undergo training us i ng ex i s ti ng data, t y p i ca l l y g ra v i ta t i n g towards data that closely resembles what h a s b e e n p rev i o u s l y

black holes and their host galax ies fo r med and evolved.

Profes so r Wo l f sa i d he l i ked the chase of uncover ing the mysterious objects.

“Fo r a few m i nutes a day, I get to feel like a child again, playing treasure hunt – and now I bring everything to the table that I have learnt since,” he said.

The supermassive black hole was first discovered by researchers from Australian National University at Siding Spring Observatory’s 2.3 metre telescope.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR  editor@coonabarabrantimes.com Boys will be perpetrators Recently, I saw a post on the local Facebook group about the change of operating hours of the Shell service station from 24 hours to closed between 10pm and 5am.

Some commenters cited that Coonabarabran had an increasing drug and violence problem as the reason for the decision to close.

To see i f th is was true I took a look at the NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research ( ht tps: // w w w.b o csa r. nsw.gov.au/) which has various ways of looking at the crime statistics

of the state, LGA, and postcodes.

To check if the claims about “getting worse” were based in reality, I looked at the ‘two years ag o ’ a nd ‘ f ive ye a r s ago’ amounts. In the Warrumbungle Shire, for all crime rates for the last two yea rs, only domestic violence assault rates have gone up – a nd t hey h ave done so at a whopping 61.5 per cent. All other crime rates remained stable, neither going up or down.

C o mp a r e d t o f i v e ye a r s ago, st a l k i ng / harassment and fraud crime rates have gone

up, and marijuana crime rates are down by 25 per cent. A ll other crime rates are stable.

That’s not to say that we have a low violence rate. Assaults in 2357 are almost three times the NS W rat e a nd local domestic violence rates a re double the NSW average. Male p e r p e t r at e d v i o l e n t cr ime is h igh i n ou r town, and this is our actual crime problem.

Which brings us back t o t he S hel l s er v ic e station post. Several commenters said that only males should be used as night staff as a solution to the closure. I

think they believe that males are more likely to be able to combat violence with violence, or be more threatening to other males.

Not one person suggested anything to do with changing how males behave, or how they are parented so they don't grow up to be perpetrators. There were no calls for rejecting models of ma leness that promote violence and male hierarchies, scrapping the “boys will be boys” attitude, or practicing and teaching empathy to boys.

R e m e m b e r, m a l e s between 13 and 25 are a

volatile cocktail of raging hormones without the brain wiring to be able to adequately moderate their behaviour. What they have been wired with is how our part of the world expects males to behave – and that's the crux of the issue.

They have been poisoned from all parts of society saying “a man has to be violent to be a man”.

The commenters were basica l ly rei n forci ng this attitude by pitting men against other men.

There are things that C o on aba rabra n as a community can do to help change the issue. Recent studies ( https://www.

• ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY •

uni-wuerzburg.de/en / news-and-events/news/ detail/news/empathy-issocially-transmitted / ) have confirmed that empathy can be spread by practici ng empat hy. I n st e ad of threatening violence, be understanding, remember what it was like at that age, talk with rather than threaten, stop and think rather t h a n r e a c t . We c a n decide that we deserve more than cynicism and anger, and just be better.

We can be the change we want to see.

can appear a pretty good place, but we can put more work into being a good neighbour and so have better citizens coming up to buy their slushies at 1am at the servo.

P. S: I know people are going to point out that the police station is not a 24-hour one, and that not all crimes are reported, but as this was also the case five years ago, it does not affect the results.

Funding dries up for river restoration The remaining works for the Castlereagh River Rehabilitation Project will be undertaken throughout March, as funding draws to a close.

by GEORGIA SPENCE P r e v i o u s environmental surveys and assessments have been undertaken and stage one of rehabilitation has been completed.

Rehabilitation consisted of weeding four hectares of woody and soft-stemmed riparian weeds and the revelation of native plants.

Stage two was placed on hold , however, contractors are due to be engaged by the end of the month.

Warrumbungle Shire C ou nci l’s d i rect or of technical services, Nicole Benson said the works would have a positive affect on the community. “ The community in Coonabarabran has come together to work on this project and to restore the ecological health of the Castlereagh River and the Murray-Darling Basin,” Ms Benson said.

“The project has also s upp o r t e d e c o n o m i c development and jobs in our local area because much of the funding is being spent locally.”

Over the last six weeks of the funding period, erosion points are set to be rehabilitated and 310 trees are scheduled to be planted.

The total number of trees planted throughout the pr og ra m w i l l be taken to 6000, following a community event for Clean Up Australia Day and two school-education days.

Clean Up Australia Day w i l l be held in Neilson Park from 10am on Sunday, 3 March, w it h a l l c om mu n it y welcome to attend.

Event plans involve tree planting, family activ ities a nd a f ree sausage si zz le, w ith information available on the rehabilitation project.

T he project also focuses on community access to the river, and a new pathway has recently been constructed. “ T he new pathway a nd sig nage a ims t o pr ov ide c om mu n it y access, facilities and information, enabling residents to enjoy the river as an integral part of their lifestyle,” Ms

Benson said. “ The path has b e e n d e s i g ne d w it h connectivity in mind and provision has been made for improved access for a l l people, includ ing

those with a disability.”

The Castlereagh River Rehabilitation Project will continue improving the health and ecological conditions of the river and riparian habitats

until funding ends on 29 March.

Planning for a mural under Mary Jane Cain Bridge and installation of public art pieces is also in progress.

Warrumbungle Shire Council has been working on the pathway extension along the Castlereagh River at Coonabarabran’s Neilson Park.

Concerns raised for declining kangaroo population Kangaroo numbers have dropped by over two million in NSW, with authorities citing rainfall and flooding as the reasons behind the decline.

The NSW Department of Planning and Environment’s ( DPE) lat est quot a repor t provided an update on ka nga ro o popu lation across the state.

T he department estimated a 19 per cent decline with 9.5 million kangaroos registered through the survey.

Last year’s estimate w a s m o r e h a n 11 . 8 million.

The decline in numbers is based on an aerial survey of 15 management zones across the state.

A spokesperson from the Department o f C l i m at e C h a n g e , Energy, Environment and Water (DCCEEW) said high rainfall and flooding in 2022 likely contr ibuted to the decline. “ The decline in the estimated population may in part, be attributed to environmental and climatic factors, including the impact of

last year’s high rainfall and f lood ing,” the spokesperson said.

W i t h i n C o on a ba r a br a n , t he past 12 months showed a decline in grey kangaroo numbers by 4 31,570, wh i le r e d k a n g a r o o populations increased by 106,173.

The DPE report a lso identi f ied lower quotas for next year’s commercial harvest.

The commercial harvest quota provided the data on the number on kangaroos that can be shot for commercial purposes.

This number had been reduced by 20 per cent since 2022. “ T h e N S W Commercial Kangaroo Management Program has mon it ored and researched NSW kangaroo populations since the 1970s,” said the DCCEEW spokesperson.

“The program aims to maintain sustainable kangaroo

populations by setting harvest quotas based on regular population surveys, utilising the best available science.”

Kangaroo populations are surveyed each year on the Western Plains, and every three years on the tablelands, for each of the four commercially harvested species.”

N i k k i S u t t e r b y, president of the Australian Society for K a nga r o os , sa id she was disturbed by the de c l i ne i n k a n ga r o o populations.

She said the statistics i nd icated the quotas were too h igh and declining numbers of kangaroos were likely the result of over shooting. “ T h e N S W Government has issued killing quotas for the k a n g a r o o m e at a n d skins industry in 2024 at 14-17 per cent of the remaining population – nearly double the rate they c a n bre ed ,” M s

Sutterby said. “ T his is w ithout a doubt, a recipe for extinction”.

“Further data in this repor t revea led that shooters for the meat and skins industry are not even filling these quotas, with shooters

unable to find kangaroos to shoot.”

Despit e the repor t a nd c onc er n s ra i s ed f r o m M s S u t t e r b y, farmers identi f ied he a lt hy p opu l at ion s kangaroos across the Warrumbungle Shire.

Local farmer Callen

Thompson said he had not noticed a decline over the past 12 months. “ O ver the d r ought years numbers de c r e a s e d , but t hey increased as it started t o ra i n aga i n ,” M r Thompson said. “ I h ave no r e a s on

to doubt the numbers gathered f rom the survey, but it does not match with what I am seeing at home.”

T he DPE s a id t he survey was an indication of the population, however, numbers would vary across the state.

Parks turn over a new leaf The benefits of community parks contribute to a town’s identity and the health and wellness of members within the town.

by GEORGIA SPENCE Coonabarabran has multiple parks and recreational spaces, including the skatepark, netball courts and the newly-installed disability access “Stop and Play” park.

The maintenance of these spaces is overseen by Warrumbungle Shire Council, which has confirmed the proposal of multiple upg rades throughout Coonabarabran.

Upgrades to David Bell Park, in Robertson Street, have been proposed under the shire-wide Playgrounds Upg rade Prog ram, as well as the construction of a dog park at the eastern end of Neilson Park.

W a r r u m b u n g l e S h i r e m a y o r, councillor Ambrose Doolan said both projects were funded by the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program, with works set to commence in the next financial year.

“David Bell Park will receive an upgrade. The scope of works includes upgrades to play equipment, safety surfacing, picnic furniture, fencing and pathways,” Cr Doolan said.

“Creation of a dog park at the eastern end of Neilson Park is planned through the installation of fencing, wate r poi nts, sig nage and othe r ancillary items, such as shade trees.

“Del ive r y of these upg rade projects will meet the Warrumbungle community’s desire to be a healthy and active community, supported by sport and recreational infrastructure.”

Maintenance However, some community members have questioned if recreational needs are being met for older children and teenagers.

Maintenance of the skatepark and netball courts has also raised concern, after holes in the surface areas were

repaired with bitumen.

Dr Claudia Thalman and her son are avid users of the skate park. She said she was taken aback by risks posed to users of both the skatepark and netball courts, as she felt bitumen was not a safe surface to fall on.

She said more attention to recreational facilities, nearest to the Sport and Recreation Centre (Youth Club), could be beneficial for the community.

“Skating and riding scooters pushes both physical and mental boundaries and are ideal activities for personal development, whilst hanging out with friends,” Dr Thalman said.

“Building a new skatepark accessible for all skill levels would provide kids and teenagers with a fun and safe space to exist in.

“Sport grounds can be a hub for older kids and I feel focusing on what the kids desire would revamp the youth life.”

Concerns have also been raised over the play equipment at Neilson Park, including the height of the slide and flying fox.

C r D o o l a n s a i d w h i l e Co u n c i l endeavoured to meet community requirements through projects and upgrades, challenges often arised.

“We a re chal lenged by spa r se resources, a large geographicallyisolated a rea, and an ageing population,” Cr Doolan said.

“Our community needs access to cultural, community, spor ting and recreational facilities and inclusive services that cater to all residents. “ P ro j e ct s s uch a s o p e n s p a ce and playground upgrades will boost the wellbeing of local communities beca use acces s i s i m po r tant fo r socialising, recreating, celebrating and connecting.”

Keen skater, Dr Claudia Thalman, is an avid user of Coonabarabran Skatepark.

Upheavals and celebrations for future of Lions Club in Coona Despite a district conference of the Lions Club being held in Coonabarabran late last year, local residents have shown little interest in helping to form a local branch.

by GEORGIA SPENCE A f t er lo ca ls fa i led t o at t end a me et i ng held at the beginning o f F e b r u a r y, L i o n s directors reached the conclusion that the town did not express enough interest in a Lions Club.

T he meeting was intended to be the first step in identifying the town’s needs and how the Lions Club could contribute.

Despite the lack of attendance at the meeting, the District Lions remain committed to supporting Coonabarabran.

They intend to demonstrate this support by persisting w ith the Lions Eye Health Program for children.

T h i s pr og ra m was i n it i a l ly ple d g e d at

the conference held in C o on a ba r a br a n l a s t year.

A L ions Club aims to empower community through humanitarian services and grants.

Their reach and ability to provide a service can be more f lexible than local government bodies.

D i s t r i c t g o ve r nor, Geoff Freudenstein has been a part of Lions for 23 years.

He said he was disheartened by the local response to forming a local branch and felt the community was missing o ut o n a w o nd e r f u l opportunity.

“The sad part about it is, you’ve got the core of a very good town and a very solid town, but it is sad to see a lethargic attitude towards this,” Mr Freudenstein said.

“ The Lions can provide a better future.

It is not the dollars they raise, it is the service they can provide to the community. “ This is a big town and there is a place for Rotary, for the CWA and for Lions.”

50 years service However, it is not all bad news for the Lions.

One member of the Shire recently received a badge for 50 years of service with the Binnaway Lions Club.

At 107 years of age, Len Guy is potentially the oldest Lions Club member in Australia.

Mr Guy first joined the service as a charter member when the Binnaway chapter was est abl ished i n 19 74 .

Eventually, he took over as president for a number

of years.

Mr Freudenstein said Mr Guy had a passion for music and was an avid piano, violin and saxophone player.

Mr Guy was involved i n t wo l o c a l b a nd s , including the Railway Dance Band and Rhythm Rascals.

M r F reudenstein said he felt honoured t o sit dow n w ith M r Guy t o celebrate h is life achievements and service to his community.

Regarding the establishment of a Lions Club in C o on aba r abr a n , M r.

Freudenstein expressed cautious optimism, but emphasised that the community ’s interest would be crucial.

He urged those interested to get in touch.

Len Guy recently received his 50 years of service medallion from Lions Club district governor, Geoff Freudenstein.

BINNAWAY SHOW: 23-24 FEBRUARY 2024

Binnaway kicks off local Show season The Binnaway Show held last Friday and Saturday kicked off the start of a promising show season across the Warrumgungle Shire, as community came together to celebrate rural life.

by GEORGIA SPENCE A round 9 0 0 people p a s s e d t h r o u g h t he gates at the Binnaway Showgrounds on Saturday, 24 February, excited to enjoy a day of attractions a nd activities.

As the first show of the season across the Shire, it marked not only the beginning of a series of festivities, but also a testament to the resilience and spirit of the local residents.

From vibrant livestock

d isplays to colou r f ul pavilion displays, the event encapsulated the rich tapestry of rural traditions and values.

Entry numbers across most categories r ema i ned si m i l a r t o previous years, however, a r t entr ies were up, alongside an increase in cattle and sheep on display.

T he best of loca l agriculture and produce, and artistic and artisanal crafts were on show, while there was strong competition

in equestrian and cow and horse events.

Free entertainment was provided through l i v e mu s i c , c o m e d y acts, ‘fizzics’ education, face painting and clay models. Kids were also kept busy with numerous jumping castles.

The Binnaway Show ser ved as a platform for lo c a l bu s i ne s s e s and community organisations to connect with patrons through market stalls and informative exhibitions.

T reasurer of the

Binnaway Show Society, Jim L a rk i n sa id the weekend was a great success. “ We are ver y thankful. Community events don’t run without people giving up their time to make it happen,” Mr Larkin said. “ We a re a not -forprofit committee and a lthough show r ides were an issue due to availability, we made su re t o pr ov ide f re e entertainment for all ages.

“It was a great social

opportunity for everyone involved.”

Young Judges In the lead up to show day, over 200 students gathered to experience the opportunities pr o v ide d i n v a r iou s agricultural sectors.

O n Yo u n g J u d g e s Day, students judged cattle, sheep and poultry and were provided with information regarding ag r icultural careers, i nclud i ng ag d rones, auc t ione er i ng a nd a motivational speaker from AgStar Projects.

AROUND THE SCHOOLS Coonabarabran Public The week at CPS started with a bang, as Mrs Jenner announced that the swimming team had a cracker of day at the zone carnival in Coolah.

Almost all competitors came home with a ribbon and many with multiple ribbons. The new towel emblazoned with the school logo and the student’s name were a huge hit in the cheer squads and with competitors alike. The blue-and-white stripes reigned supreme on the day.

At assembly on Monday morning, Mrs Evans proudly presented the house sports captains

with their badges and certificates. It was a proud line up of enthusiastic sportspeople.

Comets: Captains – Gabe Trajkovski, Ruby Mahon. Vice captains – Tallis Thompson, Isabelle Marlin.

Satellites: Captains – Kaidyn Bragg, Kerry Chatfield. Vice captains – Luke Rutland-Davey, Phoebe Holder.

Meteorites: Captains – Harry White, Adelaide Evans. Vice captains – Josh Romans, Malayla French.

Asteroids: Captains – Jayce McDonough, Matilda Graham. Vice captains – Jacob Parker,

Lucy Hayman.

Mrs Evans then presented the school captains and prefects with a copy of their pledge to serve the school.

It was a beautiful, clear morning which radiated the smiling and proud faces of Year 6, 2024.

Loving where you learn is in full swing at CPS. As part of a Warrumbungle Shire Council initiative, we have been participating in the Resilience Project.

In a recent study by Adelie University, it was found that 40-50 per cent of all students in Australia, regardless of

Tooraweenah Public Small Schools’ Swimming Carnival A hot, sunny day welcomed all who attended the Small Schools’ Swimming Carnival last Friday.

Students in K-2 participated in a range of tabloids and novelty races in the shallow pool, while 3-6 students competed in the swimming carnival.

Proud swimmers Hamish Jenkin and Bonnie Alison had a successful day at the carnival, winning the Handicap Points Trophy for the school with the most points per student.

This trophy allows all schools to compete on a level playing field regardless of their size.

Congratulations Hamish and Bonnie on a great day in the pool.

Hamish Jenkin has qualified for Dubbo District swimming for the boys 9-years 50m freestyle and we wish

him luck representing the school and Small Schools at the carnival next week.

We are very thankful to the parents and grandparents who assisted with transport,

supervision and cheering on our students at the Small Schools Carnival.

It is always great to have such strong family support at these events.

Warrumbungle Children’s Services Yuluwirri’s junior and senior preschool rooms had an exciting week, with lots of discussion and focus on getting ready for the Coonabarabran Show. The children have been busy creating art pieces, talking about other categories to enter and wanting to create a scarecrow together.

Along with this, the educators have been teaching the children about feelings and emotions and how it’s important to recognise our feelings and talk about the things that can cause these emotions.

We are learning how to identify and seek assistance so that everyone can enjoy play routines, build friendships and maintain meaningful relationships within our learning environments.

Tiny River Guardians At the Robertson Street Campus, the preschoolers have begun a learning project to discover more about river ecology as part of the Castlereagh River Rehabilitation Project.

The children have been learning about some of the native fish in the Castlereagh River and

the school they attended, reported high levels of disengagement and low levels of hope. This combined with one in four primary students reporting high levels of anxiety, depression, or both.

The Resilience Project is an engaging, weekly program with builds gratitude, empathy, and mindfulness to help students. These are wonderful lessons in creating these very important social skills for our students.

On 4 March parents are invited to learn more about these very valuable attributes which will equip students to deal with all the curve balls life throws at them. To help parents understand the program and support their child embrace these skills we are participating in a Webinar. We are urging all parents to sign up and listen to the invaluable advice Hugh gives for helping your child.

discussed what the word ‘endangered’ means as well as the impacts humans have on our ecosystem’s health.

After a robust conversation and many different interpretations

of the questions, the children agreed upon a single definition, “It means we have to save them”.

An excursion to the river is planned for early March.

Ag plot news The sheep have arrived!

A f t e r m u c h anticipation, the poll dorset and dorset-horned sheep have arrived in the ag plot.

Mrs McGoldrick has been working with Years 5 and 6 as they choose their sheep and learn how to place a headstall on their animal. The next step is teaching the students and the sheep how to lead and to be led.

The children and the sheep attended the Binnaway Show last Saturday and will be looking forward to the Coonabarabran show taking place on 8 and 9 March, followed by the Baradine on 16 March.

We are hoping the grand finale of the show circuit will be the Bathurst Royal show on 12-14 April. More news on this coming soon!

This then becomes the issue that can prevent them from rising.

The fever that occurs can cause abortions in pregnant females and can also result in bulls becoming temporarily infertile for three to six months.

Most animals will recover with supp or t ive c a r e a nd the administration of a nti-i n f lammat or ies, although in large outbreaks significant production losses may occur.

WEATHER WATCH A s the month of February draws to close, Alice Springs is heading t owa r d s it ’s hot t e s t February in 146 years.

The mean maximum temperature at A lice Spr i ngs t o dat e is 38 .3 deg rees, w ith temperatures nudging 40 degrees the last days of this February. The prev ious 10 hott est Februaries occurred in 1884, 1886, 1889, 1900, 1965, 1983, 1986, 1998, 2007 and 2018.

On all these occasion, there was significant hot, dry conditions during nearly all of March over most of Victor ia and through all of NSW and right up to the Warrego and Maranoa district, away from the coast, where heavy rainfalls occurred.

The latter part of those years at Alice Springs

virus is endemic. The most common time of year we see this disease i n the C ent ra l West i s l at e s u m me r a nd autumn.

Clinical signs in cattle consist of fever, d rool i ng, d ischa rge from the eyes and nose, stiffness and lameness, a nd dow ner a n i ma ls t h at g ener a l ly l a s t s a few d ays . He av ier animals such as bulls

T he cu r r ent significant hot and dry conditions will continue to well into April, until heav y ra i n a r r ives a round Satu rday, 2 0 April.

Cocos Keeling Island has had its wa rmest December to February period in 72 years of records. The previous record was 66 years ago.

It has also been very dry from last September to February – the driest also in 66 years. This may suggest that this year will follow that of 1958, which did see a warm, dry March and April and early May in our regions.

A very wet August to November did occur in 1958..

Coona cricketers secure home game victory Coonabarabran’s cricket team won their last home game of the season, defeating Marthaguy (Warren) at Coona’s No. 3 Oval last Saturday, 24 February.

Marthaguy won the t oss a nd ele c t ed to bat, on what was a beautiful day for cricket.

Unfortunately for the visitors, they lost their first wicket without a run on the board and never recovered from the bad start.

A f ter 19 of thei r

allotted 40 overs they had slumped to 8 -39 and, while there was a late rally, the side was bowled out in the 29th over for 61.

Top scorers were the father-a nd-son combination of Mark and James Glasson with 18 and 10 respectively.

Successf u l bowlers for Coona were Anthony Harris (6-16), Cameron Whittall (3-8) and Nick Willoughby (1-13).

While they only had to score at a little over 1.5 runs an over to win the game, Coona batted briskly and scored the necessary runs in the

14th over for the loss of two wickets.

Nick Willoughby (43 n o t o ut) a nd K o o p a T homp s on (11) wer e the main contributors with the bat.

Doug F r ieth (1-12) and Ben Storer (1-21) were the wicket takers for Marthaguy.

Coona’s next scheduled game, wh i c h w i l l b e t he i r last of the season, is against Tooraweenah at Tooraweena h th is Saturday. The boys are hopi ng t o f i n ish the season w ith a nother win.

At his first race ride at Bedgerabong Picnics in early 2021, the wellrespected and talented Will Stanley (20) won on Dot The Eye. He has since made a

successful transition to the professional ranks.

Apprenticed to Alison Smith, Stanley kicked off at Orange aboard the Sharon Jeffries trained Sepea rl, in the 10 0 0 metres Maiden Plate.

Investigating the launch of parkrun FROM BACK PAGE Mr Rehwinkel has firsthand experience to the benefits a parkrun can foster in a community.

He has participated in more than 30 0 runs a nd vo l untee red at more than 50 events.

“I can see the benefits to t h e co m m u n i t y i n bringing it here. There are many physical and mental health benefits to running, walking and volunteering,” he said. “ C u r r e n t l y, I a m trying to get the course

approved. When a p p rove d, I h o p e to raise the start-up funds with the assistance from the 2357 Development Group and the Rotar y Club.

“There are many examples of people who have joined parkrun without the ability to even walk the entire distance at first, a n d a f te r 12 m o nt h s they are r unning it in well under an hour!

“A s we l l a s of f i ci a l pa r k r un m i lestones,

there are also many ‘unofficial’ parkrun challenges that connects the community to the rest of the world.”

T h e f i ve k i l o m et re distance appeals to the majority of participants and can be r un or w a l k e d s o c i a l l y, a s a t ra i n i ng ses s ion, o r semi-competitively.

It is also not mandatory for par ticipatants to co m p l ete t h e f u l l course.

AROUND THE TRAPS WEDNESDAY GOLF The lady golfers are being very cautious in rega rd t o the retu r n of hot weather. Even though we have been t eei ng of f at 8 .0 0 or 8.30am, by the time we get to holes 15 and 16 we are looking for the shade offered by the trees with, hopefully, well-placed shots.

It do e sn’t s e em t o worry the boys, as they are out there regardless of the heat, rain, hail, t hu nder st or ms a nd whatever the weather man decides to throw at them.

Inclusivity starts with recognising that everyone's voice matters, through emphasising the importance of amplifying the voices of diverse communities and individuals, some of whom have been overlooked or silenced.

By actively seeking out their perspectives and involving them in decision-making processes, council is ensuring that policies and initiatives reflect the needs and aspirations of the entire community.

One of the key factors driving the success of diversity and inclusion efforts in Narrabri Shire Council is the collaborative

approach council takes in engaging with its diverse workforce.

By leading with inclusivity and diversity, they are inspiring others to believe in their own abilities and pursue leadership positions.

These trailblazers are breaking down barriers and dismantling gender stereotypes, serving as role models for future generations.

It requires continuous effort, open dialogue, and a commitment to challenging biases and systemic barriers.

The women of Narrabri Shire Council understand this and are undeterred in their pursuit of a truly inclusive community.

They are not afraid to ask difficult questions, seek out uncomfortable truths, and take necessary actions to create lasting change.

PK Podiatry gives thanks for support PK Podiatry, a leading provider of podiatric services in Gunnedah, expressed its gratitude to the community for the continuous support it has received over the years.

“We love our patients, our community and referrers and think Gunnedah is very fortunate with the high standard of health professionals we have,” PK Podiatry proprietor Alissa Haywood said.

The support of the local community has been instrumental in helping the Gunnedah clinic achieve its mission of improving the health and well-being of its residents, and we take pride in creating and maintaining a warm and welcoming clinic environment, supported by practice manager Leesa Adamson and receptionist Debbie Steele.

As a locally-owned and operated business, PK Podiatry understands the importance of community support and takes pride in being able to give back to the people who have placed their trust in its services.

“We are truly grateful to the people of Gunnedah for their unwavering support of our clinic,” Alissa said.

PK Podiatry offers a comprehensive range of services, including management of foot pain, gait assessment and orthotic provision, peripheral vascular assessment, general and diabetic foot care and permanent ingrown toenail management.

The team of experienced Podiatrists is dedicated to staying up-to-date with the latest advancements in the field of Podiatry

to ensure that patients receive the best possible care. In addition to providing treatment, the clinic also emphasises the importance of preventive care and educates patients on effective foot and lower limb care practices to promote long-term health.

The clinic expressed its apologies for the limited appointment availability over 2024 and wished Pia well on her maternity leave, but said it was committed to continue to offer high-quality podiatric care to the patients.

“People experiencing pain or with higher risk status are triaged so it is always encouraged to make contact with our clinic to discuss your needs and we will do all that’s possible to help,” Alissa said.

“I just want to focus on providing the best possible care to the person sitting in front of me at the time, not all the potential people we might be letting down with wait times”.

She said exhaustive attempts are made at supplementing additional clinicians into locum roles but it is difficult.

“Emma Martin, an experienced highrisk Podiatrist is assisting over the February-April period, and we’re in conversations with an experienced registered nurse who may have a role to play in a foot care nurse capacity,” she said.

Alissa also encouraged school leavers, those seeking work placement and people seeking a career change to consider the Podiatry profession.

when I did 14 years ago and just over a dozen did from the same university last year,” she said.

“It is a worthwhile and rewarding career, so I encourage people to think of it as a real

contender in their allied health career considerations.

“The only real way can address the shortage is to have more considering a career in Podiatry.”

Three generations now at C&D Electronics It’ll be 30 years for C&D Electronics in July next year, and 30 years that women have been running the game in supplying electronics to the Narrabri community.

The family-run business is now up to its third generation helping out in the store, and proud grandma and owner Chris Cunningham has seen the store survive a lot over the years.

“We’ve dealt with fires, floods, and lockdowns,” said Chris.

“Today we’re faced with more challenges like inflation, a labour crisis, cyber threats, and digital disruption.

“Getting your head around the fast-changing industry trends and technologies can be a lot of people in a small town, and we’ve done our best to help our customers navigate through them.”

So, was Chris Cunningham an electronics nerd before purchasing the store? No, it was her friend and boss whom she ended up buying the store from in 1995.

“No, I wasn’t a nerd, my boss was a programmer and I learned a lot from him,” said Chris.

“Now if there’s anything I don’t know, I can generally figure it out, or I’m lucky that I have my daughter Tash, and Jay who started with us last year.

Over the years the store has been recognised with national retail awards as well as being one of the first recipients of The Courier retail award before it became the Narrabri Chamber of Commerce Awards.

“Not many electronic shops have a music shop combined, so it’s unusual but they go

well together,” said Chris.

Music has been the backbone for C&D, and they are passionate about providing service, tuning, and sourcing of any instrument of music equipment for locals.

“We love it. It’s good for our town and our kids, up and coming musos, and I’ve watched them all grow and go on to America and so forth.”

Working alongside her daughter Tash – whom she refers to as “the love of her life” has also been a rewarding experience, “Tash is my backbone, she brought over a lot of knowledge from the Telstra shop before working here, and she makes everything run smoothly,” said Chris.

Above all, Chris thanks her loyal local customers for continuing to come back to her and support small businesses and even remembers her very first customer.

“You never forget your first customer, and he still comes in here to this day,” said Chris.

“Everyone knows me, they have known me for 30 years and maybe even my whole life, and we wouldn’t be here without them.”

We thank you for your understanding as we negotiate 2024 and wish Pia all the best for her upcoming maternity leave.

We envision resuming usual appointment availability in 2025.

Q&A with Olivia - an environmental advisor at Whitehaven Environmental Advisor, Olivia Hulbert from Whitehaven Coal recently shared an insight into her mining life.

Who are you and what do you do?

My name is Olivia Hulbert, I am 26 years old and an environmental advisor working for Whitehaven Coal Mine Closure Unit. The unit undertakes the rehabilitation of historic and closed mines, and supports rehabilitation for our Gunnedah Open Cut coal mines.

When did you start in the mining industry and what was your first job?

I joined the Whitehaven Mine Closure team in January 2022 as mine closure and rehabilitation officer after completing Bachelor studies in Environmental Science and Management at the University of Newcastle. This was my first job in the mining industry.

How different is your job now to what you wanted to be when you were a kid?

I have always been passionate

about the environment from a young age, however, I thought my work would be more focused on animals. It wasn’t until university that I realised the significant opportunities that exist within the mining industry to support environmental management.

What does a usual day at work entail?

As I work across multiple sites in various stages of closure, my days are very different depending on what site I am attending that day. The day generally begins with a catch-up with the production/operations team, then can consist of several different tasks ranging from compliance reporting, environmental monitoring and management, improving environmental awareness through presentations to crews, and working on rehabilitation projects and programs aimed at progressing sites towards closure objectives.

What’s the best thing about your job?

Working with a like-minded and passionate team who have a wealth of knowledge and experience.

What’s something about your job that would surprise people to know?

In mine rehabilitation, we work to a strict criterion as to what we are required to achieve to meet closure targets. This includes the types of vegetation seeded and planted. We source seed and tube stock that has a local provenance and the species that are selected are based on a specific plant community type. It is a thorough and detailed process.

The mining industry gets more than its fair share of criticism.

What is your view of our industry and the impact it has?

The mining industry does a lot of work to upskill employees through regular training opportunities. It offers a range of new-to-mining programs where people have the opportunity to gain qualifications while they work. Mining companies also invest a lot in the local community and support a number of community organisations. I’m proud of the work we do at Whitehaven.

Workplace employing 12 women Owner of two A team of 12 women make up Focus on Function where occupational therapy, case management and dietitian services are just the start of how clients are supported.

With more than 500 people already serviced in communities centering Gunnedah, Tamworth and Armidale, these women have enhanced the quality of life for people with disabilities.

They do this by always looking to improve upon their work, a recent example being staff member Kate Moffatt working toward a Diploma of Rural Generalist. A physical addition has been the local equipment pool, which allows people to trial equipment options to enhance participation and safety in everyday tasks.

While there is plenty to acknowledge in the team’s quest to support clients, it is also a case of how staff can have a successful career while practising healthy and practical work arrangements.

“We are very proud to provide a flexible workplace that allows women to return to the workplace and contribute to communities while juggling family, relationships and kids,” business owner, Louise Whitton said.

Work from home, flexible start and finish dates, movement for a school assembly or a doctor’s appointment, life happens and

Staff absent from photo, Alina Roper (senior OT), Sharon, Borchardt (senior OT) and Kate Kirkness (OT). New members joining the team, Megan Press (dietitian) and Lila Juwayed (dietitian).

Louise believes work should be accommodating.

The staff now benefit from wellness leave, another week off each year for a better work life balance.

“We do a lot of team celebrations, like celebrating milestones and achievements and wins with participants,” Louise said.

The team recognises that each job plays a critical role, with the customer service staff supporting the clinical team to do what is needed. The business opened in Gunnedah in 2021 and despite opening a Tamworth location last month and plans to open Armidale’s next, there are no signs of slowing down in the future.

“We would love to expand our

occupational therapy team and would really welcome another occupational therapist to serve our communities and join our great team,” Louise said.

“We recently started providing therapy assistance services. We did that because the demand is very huge and not going away.

So, we are just trying to think creatively on how we can serve more people with the resources that we have got.”

They are also helping tomorrow’s occupational therapists by hosting university and work experience students with the aim of providing them with a good experience in the industry and hopefully add a return to rural areas.

Karina Davidson is the face behind Gunnedah’s new Ella Baché store, but her story of becoming an owner is a reminder for anyone to start a career they are passionate about at any age.

The owner is self-described as a “late starter” to the beauty industry, entering the world in her late 30s.

It was her dream to help people with skin solutions however the diploma needed to get her foot in the door was not offered in her area and prolonged making it a reality.

“I have always loved pleasing people and making them feel good about themselves, so the beauty industry is the best way to do that.

I have loved learning about the skin and being able to help clients learn to love the skin they are in,” Karina said.

She excelled into leadership fast, going from doing her work placement at the Tamworth location before offering to purchase it two years into working there.

Opening a second location in Gunnedah seven years later was not something Karina had ever dreamed she would do but can now say it is something she proudly achieved.

The salon revealed in November last year is the first of a new

design concept, which Karina was passionate to be involved in when introduced to her.

Taking over an existing store and opening a new one both came with varying challenges, including working out the kinks of being the first with the new concept, but fortunately she was supported by the Ella Baché team.

“The marketing provided has been great as it is one thing I don’t have to concern myself with,” she said Both stores have four cubicles and a tan room with therapists at both salons highly skilled and trained in Ella Baché treatments and products Her staff are encouraged to deliver a tailored customer service experience and to build relationships with clients for individual skin solutions rather than working fast to serve more clients.

Our aim is to maximise participation in the daily lives of our clients and help them achieve their goals.

We provide high quality occupational therapy, dietician and case management services for adults with a variety of disabilities, including physical, mental health, neurological and cognitive. We do this work as we love to problem solve, celebrate great outcomes with participants, their families and the community.

We service Tamworth, Armidale, Gunnedah, Narrabri and all towns in between.

We have office sites in Armidale and Tamworth. We love traveling our beautiful countryside to serve our participants and communities in their homes.

Our greatest challenge is having enough team members to assist with the great work we do.

Sue Duncan leading the way in the world of dog training It’ll be ten years this September since Sue Duncan took the leap and started her own dog training business.

As the only trainer in Narrabri, she has been leading the pack, teaching obedience to all the good boys and girls, and can’t believe there was ever a time she was doing anything else.

“I’ve always loved working with dogs and horses, I’ve had horses all through my life, and dog training is very similar to horse training, so I decided to get into the dog training, and I’ve loved it,” said Sue. “I wanted to do something that I really enjoyed and get away from computers because I’d worked in an office all my life.

“I wish I had started years ago but I think there is a time for everything.”

It’s hard to believe that she started with small classes at the back of The Crossing Theatre, before moving to the gloriously kitted-out canine kingdom in the backyard on her property, where she has recently been joined by new trainer, Isobella Revell.

Her classes have grown to include one-on-one training, obedience training classes progressing through different levels, a professional kennel, and behaviour modification training, not to mention her newly implemented scent detection classes.

“Basic obedience training will stop 90 per cent of behaviour issues in dogs,” said Sue. “We could only start with basic obedience and puppy classes, as we needed the dogs to go up through the levels.

“Socialisation is also very important – I do free play in all my classes; dogs have to learn to play and be around other dogs.”

Sue completed her own 12-month training 10 years ago, over eight-day stints– through the National Dog Training Federation, and Precise Training in Melbourne.

“When we graduated, one of our teachers said to us - now you’re all going out there thinking you’re

going to be dog trainers but you’re actually people trainers,” said Sue. “If you don’t train the people, you can’t train the dogs – I spend hours with owners – because if dogs do commands here for the owner – then owners will have the confidence that they can do it at home.”

Sue’s number one advice for dog training could also be a lesson in how to be assertive in all fields of life.

“There has to be a leader of the pack.”

“People don’t like to hear the word alpha, but it works in dog training, you’re reinforcing that you are the alpha, and the dog needs to follow someone, it doesn’t rule the house.

“There are rules and boundaries that need to be in place, the same as with your children, that’s how I’m the alpha.”

According to Sue, once you’ve established the alpha mentality, no matter what dog or puppy you adopt, the three most important things to remember in order are; exercise first, then rules and boundaries, and third (for good reason) love and affection.

“Most people give their love and affection first, but it’s exercising their minds and body, then establishing the rules within house and yard – like they should walk behind you, basic obedience, and not jumping on the furniture,” said Sue. “Love and affection need to come third, otherwise you’re going to have this spoilt naughty little dog because you don’t have the other things in place.”

Sue is passionate about figuring out each dog, and what motivates them to do the work, which she does by studying their behaviourism and body language.

She can tell when a dog is out of its comfort zone, anxious, frightened, or if and why they don’t want to do something.

“What’s so fascinating about dog psychology is that they are all so different, and I get such satisfaction out of helping them,”

Dog trainer Sue Duncan with some of her students.

said Sue. “Their body language tells me everything if we are trying to get them to do a particular obedience exercise.

“Most anxiety in dogs is created through fear of the unknown or the known, they have experienced something to make it frightened.”

At the end of the day, all dogs want is to keep us happy, which is why finding what works for them is the key to successful training.

Choosing the right dog for your situation is another factor that sometimes puts a new owner in a tight spot.

So, Sue recommends doing some deep soul-searching regarding what you want to get out of the relationship with your new best friend, whether it’s a companion dog, a running buddy, a work dog, or a pal to chill on the couch with.

“Often people will get a high-energy working dog and put it in a little backyard and that doesn’t work – unless the owner takes them out,” said Sue. “Dogs like Kelpies and Cattle dogs are quite energetic and need to be kept stimulated.

“This can cause problems for owners as dogs start looking for something to do – like digging or chewing, things that are natural as a puppy but it escalates, as the dog gets older and the desire to work isn’t being met, so they look for more things to occupy themselves, more things to chew, more things to dig, or jump out of the yard, or barking at birds…”

While Sue knew it would take time to establish herself as a trainer, she can’t believe how the community trust and business has grown. Sue is also working on perfecting her doggy confidence

course with the help of her husband and stepfather, which is something she loves to see owners and their companions complete together.

“I have the dream job, I come to work and I’m able to play with all these puppies and work with them, and the adult dogs as well, just seeing all these people come through the classes improve on the agility classes, it’s amazing,” said Sue. “I always say to people, that dogs want to make us happy, you’ve got to keep rules and boundaries with your dog, and use a firm voice, but the dog’s ultimate goal is to keep us happy, so they are just trying to figure out what we want.”

That’s where Sue comes in, and we can all say that our Narrabri pups couldn’t be led by a better alpha.

Premier in Moree for law and order talks Member for Northern Tablelands Adam Marshall has used a visit to Moree by Premier Chris Minns to again highlight the need for immediate action to address a fast-rising tide of youth crime in the region.

Mr Marshall welcomed the Premier on Thursday for his first trip to Moree, where they together met with local civic leaders, police, business owners, victims of crime, a youth group, local school students and the team at Moree PCYC. “I never miss a chance to invite the Premier and his sinisters to our region, so I was pleased to be able to welcome him to our part of the world yesterday, amid rising

pressure from community leaders and residents wanting urgent action to tackle the growing trend of violent, anti-social behaviour,” Mr Marshall said in a statement on Friday, following the Premier’s visit.

“It was good to be able to show the Premier Moree first-hand and for him to hear from locals and experts on the youth crime issues plaguing our region.

“We discussed a range of matters specific to Moree and those common to almost every community in our region, specifically the need for adequate policing numbers, the weak decisions of the local courts letting down the community and police and the need to

better co-ordinate the efforts of various organisations already funded in the community to work with youth and divert them from anti-social and criminal behaviour.

“The Premier listened and was receptive to all the matters raised directly with him, asked lots of questions and was left in no doubt about the range and seriousness of the issues our region is facing at the moment in relation to youth crime. The Premier heard the same messages throughout the day, from every group and individual he met with, and he committed to helping us develop and implement solutions tailored to our region’s needs.”

Gig invited to judge artworks at Sydney Royal

By BILL POULOS

Moree gallery owner Gig Moses has been invited to judge artworks at the 2024 Royal Agricultural Show.

Mrs Moses acquired The Moree Gallery in 1996 and exhibits contemporary, emerging and mid-career Australian artists four times a year. She was late last year approached by Sydney Royal Arts and Crafts Show chief steward James Dorahy and officially invited to judge the Birds and Flowers section.

“I was absolutely stunned,” Mrs Moses said.

“It is an honour, and an acknowledgement of the high standard of work presented in The Moree Gallery.

“I have never had any previous dealings with the RAS and I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity, as well as hopefully being an ambassador for Moree,” she said.

The RAS Arts and Crafts

competition is recognised as the biggest of its type in Australia.

The competition draws more than 4900 entries across nearly 300 categories and has featured at the show since 1869, when there was a need to “improve taste and develop the artistic faculty” of the fledgling colony.

Judging takes place over two days in early March, prior to the show’s officially opening later in the month.

“I have no idea how many artworks I will be looking at – there could be up to 200 pieces,” Mrs Moses said. “It’s rather daunting, but I am very excited about seeing all the artworks.”

Mrs Moses’s curatorial eye and reputation for sourcing significant, emerging talent means artists and collectors are in safe hands.

Since the mid-1990s, an inspiring list of emerging artists have exhibited at The Moree Gallery, regarded as one of the most highly respected in regional NSW. “Artists can be discovered

straight from art school but I am lucky enough that artists now tend to approach me about exhibiting their work,” Mrs Moses said.

“Not every artist that approaches the gallery is accepted, but I always make sure I respond to every email

with great encouragement and positivity.”

The Moree Gallery has a series of exhibitions planned for 2024.

Birds of a Feather, a group exhibition featuring five significant, emerging Australian artists, opens

on March 22.

“This is followed by an exhibition in conjunction with Moree on a Plate, featuring artist Jamilia Hume and local ceramicist Maisie Johnson,” Mrs Moses said.
