LETTER TO THE EDITOR  editor@coonabarabrantimes.com Percy Worrell – league legend I am compelled to write and comment on one of the legends of Group 14 Rugby League and, of course, I’m talking of the late ‘Percy’ Worrell from Baradine.

I was in awe of the Baradine Magpies back in the 70s. I played under 18s for two years and was always excited to play Baradine, as I got to watch Percy play in the first-grade side.

H e w a s v e r y approachable and I spoke to him as much

as I could at the footy.

I particularly asked questions on his tackling technique – Ioved it!

An incredibly hard man the field, he was like the emu or kangaroo – he ne v e r st e p p e d backwards, always up to the challenge.

My first game in first grade I played on the wing and I was delighted to know we were to play the Magpies in a trial game at Baradine.

I still vividly remember watching Percy run out of the dressing shed and realising I was about

to face one of my local heroes.

I don’t remember if we won the game or not, it didn’t matter then and it doesn’t matter now.

I got home after the game and told Dad, “I played against Percy Worrell.”

Dad said, “You’re still alive, so he couldn’t have tackled you!”

I have great memories of a great Magpie and an even better man.

RIP Percy Worrell.

AAT celebrates 50 years with events for all The Anglo-Australia Telescope (AAT) and Siding Spring Observatory are celebrating 50 years in October, with a range of activities catering for scientists, academics, and community alike.

by ELEANOR RAPLEY AAT’s astronomer-incharge from 1995 to 2015, Professor Fred Watson is chair of the three-day science symposium, which is under way at Siding Spring Observatory this week.

Prof. Watson said the event, which runs from 2 - 4 O cto b e r, w i l l b e attended by members of the astronomy community who have been associated with the telescope over its history.

“O n th e af te r n oo n of Thursday, 3 October, there will be a VIP tour of the telescope followed by a 50th birthday cake cutting, to which several VIPs have been invited,” he said.

“The symposium will be fo l l owed by the annual StarFest, to which ever yone is welcome, kicking off on Friday, 4 October, with Science in the Pub, and then the Open Day on the Saturday.”

P r o f . Wa t s o n s a i d th e pa s t 5 0 yea r s at Siding Spring had been f i l led w ith notable achievements and historic breakthroughs in the field of astronomy,

which has successfully earned Coonabarabran its title of ‘Astronomy Capital of Australia’.

“The AAT was the first telescope to detect the red hot surface of Venus through its thick cloud layers, and was one of the first to spot the flashes of light from spinning stars we call pulsars – usually only seen by radio astronomers.”

The A AT was made fa m o u s i n t h e 1970 s a n d 19 8 0 s t h r o u g h the work of David Malin, the telescope’s photographic specialist, who developed a technique that allowed ast ronome r s to see galaxies and nebulae in their true colours, making him – and the telescope – world famous.

Images from the telescope have appea red in book s, magazines and even on album covers.

Later in its career, the A AT p i o n e e r e d n e w techniques that allowed astronomers to capture the details of stars and galaxies hundreds at a time rather than s i n g u l a r l y, a l l o w i n g the motions of stars in space to be sur veyed

and precise maps of the Universe to be drawn.

“It remains in the forefront of this kind of work, as well as in the study of planets orbiting other stars,” Prof. Watson explained.

Looking to the future of Siding Spring Obser vato r y and the A AT, P r o fe s s o r C h r i s Lidman, SSO director, confirmed it “was very bright!”

“There is a strong interest from organisations inside and outside of Aust ral ia to establ ish new telescopes at Siding Spr ings Obser vator y,” Prof. Lidman said. “ Re c e n t a d d i t i o n s include GOTO-South, a joint project between the University of Warwick and Monash University, and POLSA; a project led by the Polish Space Agency.

“The interest comes f r o m S i d i n g S p r i n g’s location on the planet.

“There is also strong interest from the Australian astronomical community to continue running the AAT to at l ea s t th e en d of th e decade.”

Operation of the A AT beyond 203 0 will be discussed at the

Symposium this week.

Zoe Holcombe, Siding Sp r i ng O bse r vato r y administration and WHS officer, has encouraged the community to get involved in the Open D a y t h i s S at u rd a y, 5 October, which will run from 9.30am to 4pm.

“Is is a great way to come and explore what Siding Spring does, as you get to access areas that are usually off limits to visitors,” Ms Holcombe said.

“We have five tel escopes open th i s year, which gives you access up close – and w ith staf f who can answer all the questions about it. “ We w i l l h a ve t wo areas for talks – these a re s h o r t, 2 0 - m i n ute talks about everything to d o w i t h r e s e a rc h what happens on the mountain.

“The planeta r ium is back and we have a v i r t ua l rea l it y ( VR) experience. Many u n i ve r s it i es th at a l so do research at Siding Spr ing w i l l also be in attendance.

“All the info is on the webpage – www.starfest. com.au.”

Aliens have decended on Siding Spring Observatory, ahead of this weekend’s annual Starfest event.

Million-star survey: unlocking the galaxy’s origins On the 50th anniversary of the Anglo Australian Telescope at Siding Spring Observatory, data from a stellar mapping survey that analysed nearly one million stars will be released, providing intel into the origins and development of our galaxy.

The data is a result of a decade of hard work gathered by astronomers from Australia’s ARC Centre of Excellence in All sky astrophysics in three dimensions (ASTRO 3D), and is part of the Galactic Archaeology with HERMES (GALAH) project.

“GALAH has shown us which chemical elements make up the stars of the Milky Way,” said Dr Sven Buder, a research fellow at the Australian National University.

“This dataset now helps further our ability to accurately age the stars in our neighbourhood and understand where they came from.

“This data becomes a powerful tool for astronomers to test new theories and make new scientific discoveries about the Universe.”

The elements within almost one millions stars were measured, such as the carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen, to better understand the ‘building blocks off life’ and understand how the elements are produced in stars.

Beyond the significant scientific insights, the GALAH dataset will serve as valuable training for the next generation of artificial intelligence tools in astronomy.

As the field increasingly relies on machine learning to analyse

vast datasets, this Australianled survey is helping to lay the groundwork for the future of the discipline around the world.

“Australia is leading the pack for the future of all of astronomy looking to tackle Big Data,” said Professor Daniel Zucker, from Macquarie University.

“This dataset will serve as a one of the leading textbooks for training these AIs.” Professor Emma Ryan-Weber, the director of ASTRO 3D, said that GALAH and the research the survey enables speaks directly to ASTRO 3D’s mission.

“It helps us understand how galaxies build mass over time,” said Professor Ryan-Weber.

“The chemical information the research team has gathered is like stellar DNA – we can use it to tell where each star has come from.

“We can also determine their ages and movements and gain a deeper understanding of how the Milky Way and other galaxies formed and have evolved.”

Hundreds of scientists from all around the world collaborated on this project, and all are looking forward to an exciting future of Australian-based astronomy.

This data will be released this weekend at the AAT at Siding Spring, as the base from where this information was sourced.

Bush Fire Danger Period WORD for WORD commences

In this interview series, we sit down with locals for a quickfire chat. Then we ask them, “Who should we talk to next?”

And so the chain continues...

Do you have a nickname? Cal. H o w d i d yo u co m e t o l i ve i n Coonabarabran? I think my great, great grandparents arrived in the early 1900s. I have moved a way a couple of times, but I seem to always come home.

Where would people recognise your face from? Possibly from behind the bar at the show.

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? An Agronomist. Dad told me they get paid forty grand a year to drive around in a Hilux and talk to farmers all day. Sounded pretty good!

What ’s the most interesting job you’ve ever had? Working as an agronomist for the Northern Territory Government in Katherine.

You’ve had a stressful day – what’s your way of winding down? Lighting a barbecue fire on top of one of our hills and watching the sun set.

How would your family and friends describe you in three words? You would have to ask them!

Best thing about living in Coona? The spectacular scenery. Driving home in the afternoon, coming from any direction, you always get a great view of the mountains.

If you could have any superpower what would it be? Probably fly. I spend a lot of time in airports, so it would be good if I could give them a miss.

“Land holders and firefighters have reported significant grass growth from recent rain,” said Sally Turner, NSW Rural Fire Service (RFS) acting area commander.

“This means there will be an increased threat of grass fires as this dries out.

“Grass fires can start easily and spread quickly, not only destroying

homes but also crops and livelihoods.

“While hazard reductions are an important part of preparation, landholders need to be extremely careful as escaped burns can lead to heavy penalties.”

Anyone wishing to light a fire during the Bush Fire Danger Period must obtain a free fire

permit, and notify their local Fire Control Centre and neighbours at least 24 hours in advance.

“If a fire does escape, make sure you call Triple Zero (000) immediately so that emergency services can respond and minimise the damage,” Ms Turner said.

She also stressed the importance of being prepared and having a

plan for the Bush Fire Danger Period.

“Now is the time to update and discuss your bush fire survival plan.

“Have the conversation with your family about what you will do during a fire.

“Talk about when you’ll leave, where you’ll go, what you’ll take and what you’ll do with animals.”

Have you read any good books or watched any good movies lately?

Men Without Country is a good read.

What are the top three items on your bucket list? A lap around Australia, Cambodia/Laos and hiking the Overland Track.

Do you have a hidden talent? Or what is something people might not know about you? I can and will knock up a half-decent pancake.

What are your favourite places to visit on a road trip? Nothing better than hiking into a waterfall on a hot day.

If you could pick a decade to visit in a time machine, what would it be?

1970s in Northern Australia. I grew up watching Malcolm Douglas, Alby Mangels and the Bush Tucker Man.

I f you h a d a n a n i m a l o r p l a n t rena med i n you r honou r, wha t would you want to carry your name?

Probab l y so m e so r t of pa s t u re species, but they haven’t named one after Bob Freebairn yet, so I might be waiting for a while!

If you could have anyone around for dinner who would it be and what would you cook? To be honest, no one famous or “important”, just my family. Maybe a smoked brisket – my kids and my nieces think it is fairly good.

Do you have a favourite community event or group? The Coona Show committee. They are a great group to work with, always a lot of fun.

When was the last time you had a really good laugh? A couple of weeks ago, sitting around a camp fire on top of one of our hills with some great friends.

What’s one totally irrational fear that you have? When I was a kid I used to have nightmares about dinosaurs – thanks Jurassic Park!

The 2024/2025 Bush Fire Danger Period for the Warrumbungle Shire Council and surrounds commenced on Tuesday, 1 October.

What’s the best advice you’ve ever been given? “You should marry that girl,” from my Dad and – I did!

Digital bushfire danger rating signs have been installed at the two main entrances to Coonabarabran.

Roach’s cash splash to support Coona Swimming Club The Coonabarabran Swimming Club recently received a generous $2000 donation from Roach’s Home Hardware which will assist with training new coaches and funding updated swimming equipment.

by ELEANOR RAPLEY The donation will be finalised this month, prior to the commencement of the new Swimming Club season.

Jen Stanifor th, Swimming Club president, said the five new coaches were all parents or carers of existing club swimmers.

“All coaches are experienced in working with children and some of them have been in and around the sport of swimming since they were children themselves,” she said. “ T h e t ra i n i n g co u r s e s fo r t h e co a c h e s h a ve s eve ra l s ta g e s – i nte n s i ve fa ce -to - fa ce s es s i o n s, shadow teaching, observation, and lesson planning under the guidance of a senior coach.”

A s fo r th e eq u i p m ent, M r s Stanifor th said most of the club’s equipment will require upgrades in coming years.

“The committee’s first priority is to replace the stopwatches,” Mrs Staniforth said.

“High quality stopwatches cost over $10 0 each, and we plan to upg rade all eight and purchase several spares before the season begins.

“Additionally, we aim to upgrade the club’s swimming aids as needed, including pool noodles, buoys and kickboards.”

She concluded by saying, “the

Coonaba rab ran Sw imming Club has been a cherished part of our community for many years, operated by community for local kids.

“It’s truly hear tening to witness Roach’s Home Hardware supporting clubs like ours, as it exemplifies the spirit of fostering a strong community culture in Coonabarabran.

“It’s essential for the community to suppo r t ou r l oca l busi nes ses.

Their presence enables generous donations like this, which help sustain c l u b s l i ke t h e C o o n a b a r a b r a n Swimming Club.

“We extend our heartfelt thanks to Amber Bur ton, at Roach’s, for h e r u n w a ve r i n g d e d i c a t i o n t o supporting local clubs, teams and schools.

“Thank you Amber!”

When approached by the Sw i m m i n g C l u b fo r a p ote nt i a l donation, Roach’s Home Hardware manager, Amber Burton was eager to assist in what she recognised as a great initiative.

“Just think, swimming is a pretty important skill that I think most kids need to learn and, locally, there’s no pool that’s open all year round, so supporting a program like this is important.

“We’ve got three young girls and find it pretty hard to get them swim lessons – and it’s a lifeskill every child should learn.”

Coonabarabran Swimming Club members met with the team of Roach’s Home Hardware to thank them for their generous donation.

Footy club initiates mental health care for mates Baradine footballers have participated in a suicide awareness course.

by LIZ CUTTS Members of the Baradine Magpies Rugby League Football Club (RLFC) and supporters rolled up to a mentalhealth skills workshop held at the Baradine Bowling club on Saturday, 28 September.

Presented by the Rural Adversity Mental Health P r o g r a m ( R A M H P ), Baradine Magpies RLFC treasurer, Neil Cooney said the club initiative was an outcome from a mental health fundraising event. “ T he club held a Calcutta auction some time ago, initially with the aim of donating funds to one of the mental health charities,” Mr Cooney said.

“Then, Jason Dewson contacted us after the s ad s u i c ide o f M at t Dewson and suggested we do something locally in the way of training

that would help us to spot signs of suicide in others. “ We h e a r d a b o u t a football club in the Northern Territory that had started a suicidepr e ve nt i o n pr o g r a m called Katherine Mental Mates, which has helped players keep an eye on their mates. We decided that we wanted to do something similar and it has progressed from there.

“When you or someone you care about is going through a hard time or are experiencing mentalhealth challenges, finding the right support a nd i n formation ca n make a huge difference.

“We are hoping that some of the other district footy clubs might come on boa rd and do the training as well.

“It can be very difficult to reach out to a friend that may be struggling w it h me nt a l he a lt h and we received a lot of

great information at this session.”

R A M H P work shop f ac i l it at or, G abby S chultz talked about mental health and wellbei ng a nd a n swer ed questions on the service options available to meet individual needs.

“We discussed various aspects of mental health, including common cond itions, brea k i ng stigma, and where to go for help and support,” she said.

“We hear a lot about mental health, especially in our small r ural communities, and it is important to recognise when s ome one ’s not coping well or needing suppor t and what supports are available and how to access them. “ It was a fabu lous group to work with. We had a lot of questions, a lot of input and a lot of people sharing what experiences they’d had.

“ The difference between the suppor t skills workshop and a full mental health first aid course is that this session was a condensed ve r s ion , but it s t i l l provided essential skills and information. It was held in a conversational style with people in the group contributing.

“It was great to see that there were some young people attending as well some older ones, but, of course, mental health can affect anyone at any age and does.

There are a lot of people in our rural communities that are impacted in one way or another and today everyone was keen to find out the best way to offer support.”

Ms Schultz said that the most important way to help someone is to let them know that they are cared for.

“If you are concerned about someone there are a range of interventions available depending on need,” she added.

“Being able to assist them is really important. “ Information on ser v ic es a nd how t o access them can be found on the RAMHP website and we are a funded program, so there are no fees for any of the mentalhealth workshops. We are happy to speak to groups, even a very small number of people.

“If they are keen to find out, we are keen to give them the information.”

Worrying censorship laws T he C oa l it ion w i l l strongly oppose Labor’s new M i s i n for m at ion Bill which is an attack on free speech.

The Bill would impose huge fines on digital platforms, if the G over n ment de c ide s th at they h ave not removed enough of what they consider to be “misinformation”.

To avoid these fines, it’s likely the dig ital platforms will resort t o censor i ng a la rge amount of free speech of everyday Australians who want to have their say online.

AROUND THE SCHOOLS Tooraweenah Preschool It is hard to believe that we have completed term three, and what a busy term it has been!

We h ave aga i n enjoyed our Bush P reschool sessions each week on alternate Wed nesdays a nd Fridays, and thank you to the parent and family helpers for joining us on these fun adventures ‘outside the gate’. The c h i ld r e n h av e l o v e d creating ‘stone cities’, and the addition of our butterf ly nets, which have been perfect for catching tadpoles and some ‘sleepy ’ yabbies at the creek, have sure added another addition to our knowledge and understanding of the natural world and the creek env i r on ment.

Children have noticed how much t he c r e ek has ‘emptied’ and also how mu c h ‘g r a s s ’ i s growing in the creek.

We have seen yabbies, tadpoles, leeches and some beauti f u l bi rds too.

We wel c ome ou r new preschool f r iend

Lottie and her family to Tooraweenah Preschool and have had a fun time pl ay i n g w it h L o t t i e du r i ng her f i r st few days at preschool.

We have been getting ready for the annual Tooraweenah Show that is on in the holidays and we can’t wait to see our Preschool display i n t h e p av i l i o n . We h ave m ade a l l s or t s of amazi ng a r tworks a nd constr uctions t o show our community, i nclud i ng butter f ly pr inting, gol f ball pr inting, painting ourselves, string painting, building constr uctions w ith Mobilo and Duplo, and even decorating a hardboiled egg each for this ‘preschool competition’ using bright coloured textas. We will also have some great phot o s on d i spl ay of our preschool friends being amazing at Tooraweenah Preschool.

O n the last d ay of t e r m t h r e e we we r e very excited to host a combined ‘Tooraweenah

NAIDOC Cultural Day’ w ith To oraweena h Public School friends and our special visitor, M s K a r e n A nd r i s ke from Dubbo. It was so exciting, and the most amazing time was had by everyone.

We learnt a lot about A bor ig i na l Cu ltu re from Aunty Karen, and everyone loved joining in and doing the fun activ ities she had brought with her. We talked and learnt about A bor ig i na l Cu ltu re and customs through stories and also enjoyed doi ng s ome a ma z i ng activ ities, such as making the Aboriginal f lag using collage, rock painting (we had c ol le c t ed some g reat rocks during our Bush Preschool adventures) and we got creative and screen printed animals on calico squares for a special preschool wall hanging.

While we were busy doi n g s ome o f t he s e activities, Aunty Karen c o oke d s ome Joh n ny Cakes and emu sausages

that we t ast e t est ed just before lunch, and many friends went back for seconds – for both the emu sausages and the Johnny Cakes with golden syrup on them!

We painted our very own wooden boomerang using A bor ig ina l a r t styles; made a ‘Sea of Hands’ (all about being f r iend s a nd work i ng together) and made a fun ‘Emu Caller’, which was a h it! I ’m su r e these will get a work out over the scho ol h o l i d ay s ! W h a t a n a m a z i n g d ay a n d a fabulous experience for us a l l! Such a g r e at day of learning and fun – we hope that Aunty K aren will come and visit us again another time for some more amazing learning and fun together.

We wish everyone a safe and happy school hol id ay p er io d a nd look forward to seeing everyone again in term fou r when we come back on Wednesday, 16 October 2024.

Preschool friends making their handprints for our “Sea of Hands” and learning about friendship and unity.

Several members of the Golf Club Unicorns’ darts team, joined by Mel Thompson (absent from photo), successfully contested the final of the Coonabarabran Darts Club Knockout Competition, taking home the Butch Muller Memorial Trophy.

Over the Odds CENTRAL & WESTERN RACING by COL HODGES Come-By-Chance Picnics Saturday, 28 September Foxstorm is on target for the $50,000 NSW Picnic Championship Final at Coonamble in October, after a runaway win before a good crowd on Saturday in the 1400 metres Come-By-Chance Picnic Cup. Ridden by Gilgandrabased Zara Lewis for trainer Ashley Gibson, Foxstorm ($4.60) led throughout to win by over five lengths from Dynastic (Arthur Pollock, $3.50) and Celtic Harp (Leandro Ribeiro, $2.80 favourite).

Zara Lewis then climbed aboard the Debbie Prest trained Yet Tobe A Cod for a surprise win in the 1600 metres Class B Handicap.

Saved for a late run by Zara Lewis, Yet Tobe A Cod ($7) reeled in Mean Girls (Leandro Ribeiro, $2.60) to score by three-

quarters of a length, with Kingsway (Izzy Neale, $3.60) in third place.

The grand warrior, 12-year-old Billy Bent Ear made it 19 wins and 42 placings from 154 starts when taking out the 1000 metres ComeBy-Chance Sprint.

In front all the way, the Connie Greig trained Billy Bent Ear (Leandro Ribeiro, $2.50) held on too well for Anini (Todd Bailey, $4) and Sparks (Eloise Drews, $2.50).

Connie Greig also won the 800 metres Class 3 Trophy race with I’m Scarlett.

Better suited over much longer distances, I’m Scarlett (Leandro Ribeiro, $4.20) was nevertheless able to work home from the back of the field and account for Bullaway Creek (Izzy Neale, $6) and Adviser (Eloise Drews, $2.20 favourite).

The other leg of a treble for Leandro Ribeiro was the Jane Clement, Armidale-trained Rainmaker, in the 1000 metres Memorial Plate.

Leading most of the way, Rainmaker ($3) won in a close finish from Shades Of Truth (Arthur Pollock, $6) and Montido (Ashley Boyd, $10).

Scone trainer Nikki Pollock and her son, jockey Arthur Pollock, have combined for several wins on the picnic circuit this season and their success continued at Come-By-Chance with One Command, in the 1200 metres Class B Handicap.

Finishing strongly

from well back, One Command $2.70 fav) won by almost four lengths from Transition (Todd Bailey, $9) and Keep Ya Promise (Izzy Neale, $3.60).

Dubbo Races Sunday, 29 September Hollywood script writers could not have bettered what transpired at Dubbo on Sunday, when Gallant Star and Sneak Preview won the feature races.

David Ringland, who owns Gallant Star in partnership with former Test cricketer Kerry O’Keefe, has long been involved with Dubbo Turf Club and very much wanted to win the Vincent Gordon Flying Handicap, a memorial race for the former manager of the club, who David greatly admired.

A prime candidate for the $2 million Kosciusko at Royal Randwick on 19 October, the Brett Robb, Dubbo-trained Gallant Star took on and defeated an outstanding field in the $75,000 feature sprint over 1100 metres.

Settled midfield by Tyler Schiller, Gallant Star ($3.20 favourite), when allowed more rein in the straight, looked every bit a very classy galloper when winning by a length from the Cameron Crockett trained Lonhro’s Queen (Ashley Morgan, $4.20), which ran on well to cut the speedy stablemate Custo (Jake PraceyHolmes, $7) out of second place.

There were incredibly

emotional scenes when jockey Kody Nestor returned to a wildly cheering crowd after nine-year-old gelding Sneak Preview won the $150,000 Dubbo Gold Cup – not the reception normally expected for a $71 outsider in a feature race.

Only a fortnight before Dubbo, Kody Nestor, after a lengthy time out of the saddle, had made a comeback to ride a Maiden Handicap winner, The Answer Man, at a non-TAB meeting at Collarenebri.

To then produce such a brilliant ride in a 16-horse field against a top flight line up of jockeys in a major country race was truly remarkable.

Positioned further back than midfield and saving ground near the inside, Sneak Preview gradually worked in to the race, but was briefly blocked for a run in the straight.

Keeping his mount balanced, Nestor drove Sneak Preview through a narrow gap and the veteran galloper responded gamely to win by a neck from High Dandy (Alysha Collett, $9), with Hollywood Hero (Ashley Morgan, $5) a length away, third.

For Kody Nestor, the wheel had gone full circle as he had ridden over 600 winners and then become a trainer at Dubbo, with Sneak Preview one of his best performers, with several wins including the Western Racing Association Country

Championship Qualifier at Coonamble in 2020.

The following year he stepped aside as a trainer and Sneak Preview was transferred to Queensland to become the winner of several races for trainer David Vandyke.

Recently, Sneak Preview came back to Dubbo to be trained by Peter Nestor, the uncle of Kody Nestor..

Widely regarded as a master trainer, Peter Nestor, who has prepared a host of top gallopers, has also recently made a comeback and the big group of owners including Mick Nestor, the father of Kody and brother of Peter, are thrilled to have their horse back home again.

High-profile trainers and jockeys from the country and city were in big numbers at Dubbo, however, a local galloper, Taormina Sailor, won the opening event, the 1000 metres Country Boosted Showcase Maiden Plate.

Trained by Myron Cooper, owned by his wife Corrine Cooper and well ridden by their daughter Angela Cooper, Taormina Sailor, against a 14-horse field, started a $41 outsider despite some good runs during the initial campaign.

Racing in the leading three, Taormina Sailor broke clear in the straight and won by nearly a length from Now Voyager (Ashley Morgan, $5.50) and Trust A Kitty (Siena Grima, $31).

AROUND THE TRAPS WEDNESDAY GOLF Doreen Searle played well again on Wednesday, 25 September, returning another good score of 36 points, along with Lou Coulton, who also scored 36. There was no need for a count back – Doreen had 23 points on the back nine.

The handicapper was straight onto Doreen’s card, busting to reduce her handicap before the next competition.

Doreen won the club voucher, while Lou won a new golf ball.

Yesterday we competed in another stableford –

results in next week’s Times.

Coming up Saturday, 5 October – Astronomy Cup. Wednesday, 9 October – stableford.

Saturday, 12 October – Coonabarabran Bakery Monthly Medal.

Humour A friend drove me to see some people who lived about 80 kilometres away.

We had a nice visit, but when it was time to leave we discovered that the keys were locked in the car. None of us knew

what to do, so my friend had to call her husband who had a spare key – understandably, he was quite annoyed.

A few minutes later I de c ided t o t r y the back doors of the car.

Sure enough, one was unlocked.

My friend rushed back into the house, hoping to reach her husband before he left – but it was

Peter Nelson’s too late.

“Wait till he sees this,” I said. “He’ll be more than upset. What are you going to do?” “ W hat any sensible w i fe wou ld do ,” s he replied, grinning.

Then she walked out to the car, opened the back door, pushed down the lock button and slammed the door shut!

Minnie and her mate

WEEKEND GOLF It was a regular day on the Coonabarabran golf course last Saturday, 28 September.

Something to report before I get into the results – Neal Percival had 5/3 on the first. On first look ,nothing special there, however, he did put his first shot out of bounds and scored an eagle with second go!

The winner was John Dawson, with 38 on a count back from Trish Lithgow.

Ball winners were Trish Lithgow, Steve Morrissey 36, Neal Percival 35 and Elaine Gardiner 34.

Coming up this weekend is the Astronomy Cup 4BBB (stableford), on Saturday, 5 October, with some great prizes and sponsorship from the Australian National University.

The Bakery October Monthly Medal will be played on 12 October.

Please also put in your diaries or tell your secretary that the Coona Open Tournament will be played on 1 December.

This Friday there will be no raffles, as we are holding the annual Science in the Pub event. So have a night at home and see you Sunday – we are open all day for the footy finals.

WEATHER WATCH As this month draws to a close, it can be seen that almost the whole of the continent was notably warmer than normal.

Darwin, with a mean-maximum temperature of 34.4 degrees at the airport site, had its warmest September on record, surpassing the previous warmest Septembers of 34.1 degrees in 2010, 2017 and 2021. At the old post office site there were warmer Septembers in 1882, and 1892.

Last month Broome recorded a mean-maximum temperature of 34.4 degrees, the second warmest behind the 34.6 degrees in 2015.

Other very warm Septembers at Broome were in were in 1910, 1914, 1989, and 2008.

T here was no shor tage of sig ni f icant rain falls from late October to end of December in our region.

Despite Daly Waters having a near-record-highest temperature for September it was the wettest September there since 1978.

The mean-maximum temperatu re last month i n Coonabarabran was 21.8 degrees, more than a deg ree above the September normal. The highest t e mp e r at u r e o f 2 7. 3 d e g r e e s occurred during the first week of September. This followed quickly after a maximum temperature of 27.8 degrees on 30 August.

In 1982 there was a maximum temperature of 28.5 degrees on 31 August and then 29.6 degrees on 2 September 1982 in Coonabarabran.

From the records back to 1880, the 1982 event was the only other case with this year’s case. In 1982 we had 35 degrees by the end of October and 40 degrees during the fourth week of November in our region - it was very dry, with extreme fire danger up to early March of 1983.

There were many other towns across the nation that recorded a high temperature near the end of August and then the highest temperature for September during the first week of that month as well.

Heavy rain swamped the far North Coast of NSW over the last week of September.

Yamba recorded over 100mms the last three days. This followed a very wet May with 228mms, a dry June with only 13mms, high rainfall of 140mms in July, a near record 234mms in August, then 126mms in September.

F rom the rainfall records at Yamba, which go back to 1877, there was only one similar rainfall profile which happened –that was in 1954.

We had a very wet period from the third week of October 1954 right through to early December, w ith ma x i mum t emperatu res slightly above normal to well into the summer – 38 degrees in late November 1954 and 40 degrees the first and third week of January 1955.

Going, going...gone!

It took just one tap with an excavator to topple the former canteen at Number Three Oval in Coonabarabran last week, with work soon to commence on the establishment of new amenities.

Country paper confidence This week’s sale of North Western community newspapers, The Courier, Narrabri, Gunnedah Times, Wee Waa News and the regional North West Magazine has emphatically underlined confidence in local, country papers.

North-western business group Collective Media Pty Ltd has bought the mastheads.

The vendors, Ian and Wanda Dunnet OAM, Narrabri, are retiring after decades of successful newspaper operations.

“A good local paper is the best advertisement a town can have, it is the beating heart of its community and we are absolutely delighted that the new owners so strongly share our beliefs and commitment to the communities the papers serve,” Mrs Dunnet said.

The principals of Collective Media, Mark and Susie Slack-Smith, are passionate advocates of newspapers in country communities.

The newspapers will continue in their current format and staffing as successful weekly print

publications complemented in the future by an expanded digital offering.

“We are committed to maintaining the important role of the mastheads as truly local, printed newspapers,” said Mr Slack-Smith.

“We are proud to continue the local newspaper tradition and build on the 104 year foundation of the previous owners of The Courier, the Dunnet family.”

“We are completely confident the newspapers have an exciting future of growth and innovation under the leadership of Mark and Susie Slack-Smith with the support of the fantastic and experienced team members who produce the papers so professionally each week,” said Mrs Dunnet.

Mark and Susie Slack-Smith see a promising future for North West NSW and its dynamic urban business centres, agriculture and energy industries.

The couple have consistently backed their confidence with significant and

ongoing business investment in the NSW north and north west over the years.

“We firmly believe that a great future is in the regions,” said Mr Slack-Smith, who grew up in Moree and nowadays is based in Tamworth.

“Migration from metropolitan to country areas is growing as people increasingly recognise the lifestyle and business opportunities.

“And local newspapers have such an important role to play as part of the fabric of their local communities.”

In 2007 John retired and Ian and Wanda Dunnet (nee Druce) bought his shares in North Western Courier Pty Ltd in 2007.

“We recognised that it was time for us to step down,” said Mrs Dunnet.

“It has been an absolute privilege and pleasure to serve the community through the local newspapers.”

Bowel cancer can strike the young Bowel cancer is Australia’s second biggest cause of cancer deaths - and bowel cancer does not discriminate in terms of age or sex, social status or occupation.

Each year more than 1700 young Australians are diagnosed with bowel cancer.

Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel Sydney marked its 11th annual charity fundraising Gala Dinner on Friday, September 20 with bowel cancer the target.

This year’s gala raised over $105,000 for Bowel Cancer Australia a cause deeply personal to the hotel’s general manager, Peter Tudehope and his wife Tena.

Their eldest daughter, Beth, tragically passed away from bowel cancer at the young age of 38 earlier this year.

“This is the eleventh year that Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel Sydney has held the gala dinner.

“It is our major fundraising opportunity and a way to honour my beautiful daughter while giving back to the community who support us.” said Mr Tudehope.

Mr Tudehope made a heartfelt commitment to Beth to raise

awareness and assist in preventing this disease from continuing to take any further young people’s lives.

Bowel cancer claims the lives of 103 Australians every week - 5350 people a year - but it’s one of the most treatable types of cancer when detected early.

A panel speaker at the fundraiser, specialist colorectal and general surgeon Dr Penelope de Lacavalerie told the audience that bowel cancer did not discriminate on the age or sex of sufferers.

Dr de Lacavalerie has treated bowel cancer patients as young as 18.

“It’s a common misconception that bowel cancer is ’an old person’s disease, but the reality is that you should never be told you are ‘too young’ to have bowel cancer,” she said.

“Although the majority of newly diagnosed bowel cancer cases occur in people 50 years and over, 11 per cent of Australians diagnosed with bowel cancer are under 50 years of age.”

Dr de Lacavalerie urged people to monitor their own health and

Radisson Blu staff donated their time and services for the evening to support the bowel cancer awareness fundraiser at the hotel. All services for the evening, including food, wine, audio visual support, entertainment, room design and prizes, were generously donated by the hotel and its partners, ensuring that every dollar raised went directly to the charity.

take appropriate action, including seeking more than one medical opinion, if they were experiencing worrying symptoms out of the ordinary and not satisfied with a diagnosis.

A colonoscopy is the surest way to be sure.

Some people struggle with working up the courage or finding the time to make the important doctor’s appointment, and this delay only increases the worry and fear.

One of the speakers at the fundraiser, NSW parliamentarian Matt Cross, recounted his experience with bowel cancer.

He was alerted to the life-changing diagnosis during a routine

His haemoglobin levels were flagged as being too low to donate, and it was recommended he see a GP. He thought some iron supplements and iron-rich foods would be the end of it — but the doctor suggested he have a colonoscopy.

“I thank my wife, Gessika, for encouraging me to make sure that I had a colonoscopy in a timely manner, and it was there that I discovered my cancer diagnosis,” Mr Cross said. He had been experiencing fatigue before his diagnosis, one of the symptoms which may signal bowel cancer, but had chalked it up to long hours on the job.

Personal health awareness, ‘listening to your body’ is very important.

The $105,000 raised for Bowel Cancer Australia will aid in the research, prevention and quality treatment and care for those affected by bowel cancer.

The fundraising gala event was held in the Marble Room at Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel and was

hosted by MC Gareth McCray OAM, a familiar voice from 2UE radio, and featured entertainment from professional performer Meredith O’Reilly.

The Radisson Blu is a long term sponsor of The Courier and Gunnedah Times NRL tipping competitions and representatives of the papers, Ian and Wanda Dunnet OAM, attended to support the fundraiser.

All services for the evening, including food, wine, audio visual support, entertainment, room design and prizes, were generously donated by the hotel and its partners, ensuring that every dollar raised went directly to the charity.

Beth’s best friend Justine Schofield one of Australia’s most recognisable culinary figures, collaborated with the team to create the evening’s entrée, while celebrity chefs, Matteo Zamboni (Civico 47) and Aiden Stevens (The Bentley Group) worked alongside the hotel’s team, all donating their skills and time to support the event.

Nation’s supermarket giants on notice Australia’s supermarket giants are using their dominance to extract huge profits from farmers and families, a report from Australia’s competition watchdog has found.

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) released its interim report into the nation’s major supermarkets, uncovering a worsening pattern of “excessive” prices and market power misuse in the sector. NSW Farmers principal economist Samuel Miller said the findings had come as no surprise, with farmers and families having long suffered at the hands of the nation’s supermarket duopoly.

“Prices are rock bottom at the farm gate, and sky high at the checkout – it’s clear these supermarket superpowers are pushing up profits and leaving farmers and families to foot the bill,” Mr Miller said.

“For years, farmers and families have suffered as our supermarket profits have soared, and there has been a total lack of accountability or penalties for any unconscionable behaviour impacting the

supply chain to date.

“Farmers have been unable to speak out for fear of retribution, and families have been left with no choice but to hand over their hard-earned money to this monopoly – and that must stop.”

Mr Miller said farmers had a short window to get perishable agricultural goods – such as fruits and vegetables – to consumers, and supermarkets had often used this fact to pressure farmers into either taking lower prices or leaving food to rot.

As the ACCC continued its investigations, and with legal action underway on a ‘fake discount’ scandal, Mr Miller said tough penalties and expanded powers for the competition watchdog were vital to bring Australia’s grocery giants to account.

“A mandatory, enforceable Food and Grocery Code is a positive step, and will go some of the way to address this culture of unconscionable behaviour we’re seeing within Australian supermarkets, but it’s not the end of the road for competition reform,” he said.

New northern fallow weed control option hits the spot MARKETPLACE

Northern croppers have a lot to think about when applying broadleaf herbicides on winter and summer fallows – of course, their effectiveness on weeds, particularly from some traditional options; plantback intervals; one-pass applications with brews containing grass herbicides and any related antagonism and volatility; application restrictions in sensitive cropping areas; and, weather conditions after spraying.

Fortunately, the recent registration of a dual mode of action broadleaf herbicide, including for the popular optical spot spraying of winter and summer fallow weeds, is set to simplify the decision-making for growers and they can take advantage of it leading into summer cropping programs this season.

Monsoon®, developed by ADAMA Australia, is a unique co-formulation of two proven active ingredients, bromoxynil (Group 6) and fluroxypyr (Group 4), that has demonstrated excellent control of a wide range of difficult broadleaf weeds, vines and woody weeds.

It also can be combined with a range of compatible tank-mix partners, with minimal impact on the efficacy of grass herbicides and without the volatility concerns or re-cropping limitations of some alternative options.

Market development manager with ADAMA Australia in Southern Queensland, Jim O’Connor, said trials with Monsoon in Northern New South Wales and the Darling Downs region in Queensland had shown strong activity on volunteer cotton, fleabane and saltbush, and he expected it would become another important tool in weed control programs with optical spot sprayers.

He said growers were keen to apply grass herbicides with broadleaf knockdowns for one-pass weed control, and the trials also demonstrated the physical and biological compatibility of Monsoon with grass control chemistry, hence it could be applied in tank mixes with glufosinate, Group 1 herbicides and glyphosate.

“There can be some antagonism when using Group 4 chemistry with grass control herbicides, however it is reduced when using fluroxypyr in combination with bromoxynil. There was no major antagonism,” Jim said.

There is also reduced carryover risk associated with these active ingredients, with the re-cropping periods following Monsoon application set at seven days through to 28 days according to application rate and rotation crop type.

“It has a nice rate range with optical spot sprayers up to 4 litres per hectare, so growers can go

Trials with Monsoon herbicide against a range of broadleaf weeds, including this weed mix on the Darling Downs in Queensland, have clearly demonstrated its effectiveness, in this case applied at 4 litres per hectare in a tank mix with 330 millilitres/ha of Platinum XTRA, containing clethodim, as well as Hasten at one per cent.

with a high dose if needed or use a lower rate to further reduce the recropping interval,” Jim said.

“Growers will be able to spray in front of upcoming plantings of major summer crops including cotton, sorghum and mung beans.

“In addition to volunteer cotton and fleabane, Monsoon will also help target hard-to-control broadleaf weeds on summer fallows using optical spot sprayers, and it will be ideal in areas where there are use restrictions on 2,4-D herbicides, including where there are summer plantings of cotton and other crops like grapevines and tree crops. However, growers will still need to employ excellent

spray application practices.”

He said the combination of the two active ingredients also had demonstrated success against saltbush, sowthistle and ipomoea vine species, while bromoxynil (Group 6) chemistry was not often used on northern fallows, which would help maximise herbicide efficacy.

“It presents an opportunity to get a different chemical group involved in fallow programs.”

“Monsoon applications are also robust in a range of suitable meteorological conditions, whereas alternative herbicide efficacy can vary depending upon conditions.”

Jim said growers were having to decide over the use of traditional

herbicides, different brews and various products under permit with their fallow weed control applications, so the registration of Monsoon for use with optical spot sprayers was timely.

Monsoon is also registered to be applied in winter cereals, targeting broadleaf weeds in post-emergent applications, and work is under way to add use patterns in sugarcane and sorghum to the product label.

Corporate papers close, independents start up This is not just

New life for 125 year old Manilla Express Taking over a 125-year-old regional newspaper might sound like a daunting task, but for Monica Nash it felt more like a productive retirement project.

After all, who could resist the charm of a local paper that has kept the township of Manilla and the surrounding communities connected for generations?

When Monica first learned that the Manilla Express had closed, her love for local history and community kicked in.

"I couldn’t bear the thought of such an historic icon disappearing," she said.

"So, I decided on the spot to offer to buy it. What’s retirement without a challenge?"

The Manilla Express is no ordinary publication – it’s a living record of the town’s stories, both past and present.

For Monica, it’s not just about keeping the paper going, but about reviving its place as the heart of the community.

"I see this paper as a ‘living treasure’," Monica says.

"It belongs to the people, and my job is to make sure that continues."

Since taking on the Manilla Express, Monica has set about expanding the paper’s reach, with more pages planned before Christmas.

“She’s even got her eye on next year for further growth.

"It’s amazing how many stories

my project – it belongs to the community.

Local community newspapers are being launched across eastern Australia, filling the void left by the closure of local papers, or their replacement by ‘digital only’ versions.

The evidence, proven by the success of independent printed local newspapers, is that the printed product is alive and well when it is operated by committed and enthusiastic people backed by enthusiastic and committed management.

Independent local newspapers have stepped into the vacuum

we’ve yet to uncover," she adds.

"Every issue brings something new – from local heroes to forgotten history."

With the support of dedicated volunteers and contributors, the future looks bright.

"We’re all in this together," Monica says.

"This is not just my project – it started in this community and it belongs to the community."

However, some corporate titles were not supported by staffing and management well ahead of the alleged pandemic effect.

The fact that independent newspapers continue to emerge, either through purchase of the former corporate mastheads or starting anew, is a testament to the fact that people want local, printed community newspapers, whether in conjunction with online platforms or as stand alone ‘hard’ copies.

As World News Day was marked on September 28, it’s a fitting moment to highlight the critical role that local journalism plays in sustaining our regional, rural, and local communities.

While global headlines often dominate attention, it is the local stories that matter most to the day-to-day lives of people across Australia.

Public interest journalism in small towns, rural areas, and local communities acts as a lifeline, connecting residents with their local councils, businesses, and neighbours in ways that larger media outlets often overlook.

Country Press Australia represents over 230 member newspapers, each of which serves as an essential voice in its community.

These publications don’t just report the news—they are embedded in the fabric of local life.

Whether it’s covering local elections, holding regional authorities to account, or celebrating community achievements, local papers ensure that the concerns and aspirations of their readers are brought to the forefront.

This role is even more crucial as regional, rural, and local communities face their own unique challenges, from economic pressures to infrastructure needs.

Public interest journalism is the cornerstone of a healthy democracy.

In a world increasingly overwhelmed by misinformation and sensationalism, local newspapers stand out as bastions of factbased, reliable news.

At Country Press Australia, our mission is to uphold the highest standards of journalism while reflecting the true character of the communities we serve.

The rise of social media has undoubtedly revolutionised how we share and access information, but it has also brought with it a

troubling surge in disinformation.

From deep fakes to viral conspiracy theories, the digital age has made it easier for falsehoods to spread and harder for people to trust the news they consume.

Social media’s often unregulated content flow leaves many questioning what is real and what isn’t, which can harm the very foundations of informed public discourse.

In contrast, the newspapers that make up Country Press Australia continue to provide a much-needed antidote to this information chaos.

Our journalists work tirelessly to ensure that the news we deliver is accurate, balanced, and rooted in the realities of the communities we cover.

These local stories are vital, offering context and insight that reflect the true needs and interests of regional, rural, and local Australia.

While media and technology are constantly evolving, the core mission of local journalism remains unchanged: to inform, to hold the powerful to account, and to serve the public good.

The 230-plus member newspapers of Country Press Australia are committed to this mission, ensuring that the stories and concerns of regional, rural, and local communities are not just heard but taken seriously.

In an era of increasing digital noise, local newspapers remain a trusted source of truth.

By supporting your local newspaper, you are not only helping to keep your community informed but also supporting the crucial role of public interest journalism in upholding democracy.

Together, we can ensure that facts, fairness, and community spirit continue to guide our regional, rural, and local towns towards a brighter future.

Georgia empowering rural women to embark on career in medicine Former Narrabri High School student, now medical student, Georgia Goodhew understands embarking on studies in medicine is a daunting process sometimes with little information available.

Her first-hand experience was the catalyst in co-founding the Boots to Scrubs initiative which inspires, empowers and supports rural women to pursue a career as a doctor.

Georgia recently returned home to share her medical school journey, and forming the organisation, with the Rotary Club of Narrabri. The links between Rotary and Georgia run deep, with the service club previously supporting her aspirations.

Georgia, a fourth year medical student at Charles Sturt University, is the daughter of Darren and Jacqui Goodhew.

A Narrabri High School 2019 graduate, Georgia didn’t consider medicine as a possibility until she was in year nine.

“I was so obsessed with what the human body was doing,” she said.

“I didn’t realise becoming a doctor was a possibility.

“When I think back to my time at high school, no one else at the time wanted to go into medicine.”

Reflecting on her education and community support in Narrabri, she has nothing but praise.

“The school was very supportive,” Georgia said.

Georgia found support through Rotary which assisted her to attend the International Youth Science Forum in Michigan, USA. Georgia also attended Rotary Youth Studying Astronomy and Related Science and the National Youth Science Forum.

Support also came from her family, friends and local GP Dr Ojah.

“All of the experiences and science camps confirmed my love of medicine,” Georgia said.

Georgia succeeded in her high school studies and secured her placement in the Doctor of Medicine program. At university, she met Chloe – friend and co-founder of Boots to Scrubs – who experienced similar challenges.

“People find they don’t understand the process of getting into medicine,” Georgia said.

“Others in our course had others in their year level wanting to study medicine.”

Georgia and Chloe initially dedicated their time to develop branding and social media, and the response has been

overwhelmingly positive.

“Every time we spoke, it was just getting bigger and bigger,” she said.

The group organised information sessions in communities in southern and eastern NSW and were met with keen interest from the participants. They hope to do the same in the North West at some stage.

From the original two co-founders, the organisation now boasts a committee of 12. At the end of this year, the organisation will become fully fledged in its own right as a non-government organisation run by a board of directors.

“We can now take a bit of a breath,” Georgia said.

Being able to share the workload has helped enormously as Georgia enters the final stage of her studies and juggles full-time hospital placement as well as exams.

Her time in hospital is spent scrubbing into surgeries as well as taking on patients of her own.

Stand-out surgical experiences so far have been in the fields of plastics, joint replacements and trauma.

While Georgia is yet to determine her path once her studies are complete, she enjoys the

For those interested in a path in medicine, Georgia encourages people to seek as much information and advice as possible as

For Georgia, her medical experience will come full circle when she returns to Narrabri next year for a six-week GP placement with Dr Ojah.

'Invisible' magic of nation’s 2100 small schools When severe drought turned farmland to dust, the children at Bellata Public School could escape to an oasis under the lilac haze of a jacaranda tree.

The school community in the northern NSW village banded together during the years of devastating dry to carefully preserve a patch of grass for the students in the playground.

"We wanted them to be able to come and have a bit of a safe haven away from all the brown, drying grass," parent Zara Lowien told AAP of the drought, which broke in 2020.

"That's a critical part of an agricultural community, particularly if people are doing it tough.

"They can have a break from whatever is happening on the farm and come to an open, fun, green space, which is what the school is able to provide."

Ms Lowien's son Patrick and daughter Amelia are among 24 students at the school, learning in the same red brick building as their dad did.

"My husband was pretty adamant that we send our children there so he could walk them through the gate, just as he was walked through the gate."

The school on Friday marked 125 years at the heart of the community, having educated generations of local families.

It celebrated its history and unique environment, where children learn everything from coding to growing vegetables, can play on a killer soccer team and even occasionally take charge of their own canteen.

But, like many small schools, it faces challenges.

Having once educated more than 100 students at a time, its numbers have dwindled over the decades amid droughts, floods and the evolution of agriculture.

Workers and their families come and go with the fortunes of a season, while women increasingly earn off-farm income in neighbouring towns and take their children to schools there, Ms Lowien said.

Bellata Public has the student numbers to keep two full-time teachers employed, something the village is determined to retain for its own longevity and community spirit.

"Having a school is so essential for keeping a vibrancy around the town," Ms Lowien said.

"It helps us attract workers ... it makes it a really appealing place to move."

Despite being central to the social fabric and workforce in rural communities, small schools are often "invisible" to policymakers, according to research by the Gonski Institute for Education at the University of NSW. There are more than 2100 schools across rural and urban Australia with 100 or fewer students, representing nearly a quarter of all schools.

But their small student cohorts mean they do not meet minimum thresholds for data collection, leaving their nuance lost in the big policy picture, UNSW professor Scott Eacott's research paper said.

At least 50 small schools have

closed in NSW since 2010, with similar trends across Tasmania, Western Australia and South Australia.

Small schools often serve vulnerable or marginalised populations in a close-knit atmosphere, with tailored classes and strong bonds between teachers, families and their towns.

"Small schools are more than educational institutions, they are fundamental to what we have come to know as community," Prof Eacott wrote.

Some of Australia's smallest schools are in Queensland, educating families from cattle stations, on the coast and the vast expanse in between.

At Hayman Island State School, where children learn in a small yellow schoolhouse overlooking crystal waters, enrolments fluctuate with the tourist season, educating between two and eight children at a time.

Since 2021, there have been between two and 10 students at Birdsville State School in one of Australia's most remote towns on the edge of the Simpson Desert.

Theodore State School, in the Banana Shire, educates 146 students from preschool to Year 10, with the school at nearby Cracow closing in 1997 due to falling enrolments.

Isolated Children's Parents

Association council member Nikki Mahony's four children went to the Theodore school, waiting for the bus at the end of their 6km driveway and travelling 40km to town each day.

"If there is an opportunity to access a bus and get to those schools, that's really the only socialisation for for kids out here," Ms Mahony told AAP. Theodore runs a trail bike ride each year to raise money for playground equipment and teaching resources.

"It's a massive community effort and it's vital that the school stays vibrant," she said.

"There's a lot of fundraising that happens ... because we just don't get the funds we need."

Something as simple as a change to a bus route can affect enrolments at a small school, along with funding shortfalls, teacher shortages and availability of subjects.

The association is holding a national awareness day on October 9 to highlight the challenges in rural and remote education.

Members are lobbying for rural and remote financial incentives for teachers, along with changes to work visas that would allow overseas-trained educators to stay longer in Australia.

Put simply, the future of small schools is the future of small communities, Ms Mahony said.

"Your shopkeepers, police, nurses, doctors need that education on the doorstep, let alone the farming families.

"You need those schools to keep the township going."

Parkes MP strongly opposed to Labor’s Misinformation Bill Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton has confirmed that the Coalition will strongly oppose Labor’s new Misinformation Bill, which he described as an attack on free speech.

When the government released its first Misinformation Bill last year, more than 20,000 people put in submissions and comments opposing it, and so it was withdrawn in disgrace.

Mr Coulton said that with this latest attempt, Labor has again demonstrated a failure to respect the fundamental right of Australians to free speech.

“I agree that this is a Bill which has no place in Australia,” Mr Coulton said.

“Already I am hearing from constituents about the Labor government’s planned laws.

“People in the Parkes electorate just don’t trust Mr Albanese or his government to speak the truth on their censorship laws.

“We saw it during the Voice debate, when Labor labelled any view it didn’t like or agree with as ‘misinformation’.”

The Nationals’ candidate for Parkes Jamie Chaffey said this legislation is worrying and could have significant consequences.

“Misinformation is inherently subjective and the idea that a government regulator is going to tell Australians what they can and cannot say is concerning,” Mr Chaffey said.

“Australia is one of the greatest democracies and this bill could change that.”

Shadow Communications Minister David Coleman said the Bill gives digital platforms an enormous financial incentive to censor statements made by everyday Australians.

“If the government decides that they have not censored enough ‘misinformation’, they can face large fines,” Mr Coleman said.

“Digital platforms don’t care about the

free speech of Australians – but they do care about their profits. So they will censor large amounts of material to avoid the risk of fines. The provisions of the Bill are extremely broad and would capture many things said by Australians every day.

“Labor’s planned laws would also give the Communications Minister the powers to personally order Misinformation Investigations and Misinformation Hearings.

This is wide open to abuse and an extraordinary power for a Minister to hold in a democracy.”

Mr Coulton said the Coalition will strongly oppose this dangerous legislation, and will always stand up to protect the free speech of Australians.

Speaking about the legislation, Minister for Communications, Michelle Rowland said misinformation and disinformation pose a serious threat to the safety and wellbeing of Australians, as well as to democracy, society and economy.

“Doing nothing and allowing this problem to fester is not an option, Ms Rowland said.

“The government is committed to keeping Australians safe online, and that includes ensuring the ACMA has the powers it needs to hold digital platforms to account for misinformation and disinformation on their services.

“Following public consultation on the draft bill last year, revisions have been made that carefully balance the public interest in combatting seriously harmful misinformation and disinformation with the freedom of expression that is so fundamental to our democracy.

“These revisions reflect that feedback and I look forward to seeing the Bill become law as we combat the threat of misinformation and disinformation.”
