FOOD Week has arrived in Orange for another year! It all gets underway this Friday with the always popular FOOD Week Night Market in Robertson Park. I remember coming as a visitor to Orange and very much enjoying my first Night Market experience. Here’s hoping the weather holds!

On Saturday, I attended the commemoration service in the Orange Cemetery for 107 former soldiers who, until recently, lay forgotten in unmarked graves. Every one of them now has a headstone thanks to the persistence of local family history researcher Sharon Jameson, who has spent years researching and identifying all these men, and then lobbied and bothered enough people to see the job done. I’ve spoken with Sharon about the project for OC Life a number of times over the past few years, and it is an incredible amount of work she has done to find these lost soldiers. An amazing job, Sharon! You can read more inside.

Did you know Orange has a local sailing club? The Carcoar Dam Sailing Club was originally established at Lake Canobolas 65 years ago this year, although then named the Orange Sailing and Canoeing Club. The club moved out to the much bigger waters of the Carcoar Dam in 1973 and then dropped Orange from the name in 1975. This weekend, the club is throwing open the gates for the Carcoar Sailing Club Annual Regatta on Saturday and Sunday, March 29-30 and they would love you to come. It’s a chance to see racing between different types of boats – from Lasers to Maricats and Hobby catamarans. You’ll find the club at 540 Carcoar Dam Road, and more information at: www.sailcarcoar.com.au Until next week!

Support Foodcare for a chance to win tickets to Forage!

M

issed out on tickets for Forage? At this Friday’s Night Market, FOOD Week’s charity partner FoodCare Orange will be raffling two tickets to the sold-out vineyard ramble and eight-course degustation event.

This is the second year FOOD Week has partnered with local food relief charity FoodCare, who will be among the 50 stallholders in Robertson Park for the Night Market on Friday evening.

FoodCare, a charity that provides low-cost grocery staples and free fruit, vegetables and bread to those in need, is continuing to see a growing need within the Orange community.

FoodCare Orange Coordinator Tim Mordue said they are grateful to the FOOD Week committee for the opportunity to not only raise funds but also increase awareness of what it is they do.

In the past 18 months, FoodCare has seen a 40 per cent increase in people using their service, so any chance to raise money is appreciated, Tim said.

“The money we raise we spend on free and healthy food and subsidised meat and fruit and eggs... that’s where FoodCare can help people and help a lot in our society that are really struggling out there,” he said

FOOD Week, Orange’s long-running food festival, gets underway this Friday, March 28, kicking off a ten-day program with the always popular Night Market.

“Having FOOD Week approach us so we can advocate what we are doing and raise funds and maybe recruit more volunteers to help us on that mission of providing a hand up for a lot of people struggling to feed themselves is appreciated.”

An event loved by visitors and locals alike, this year‘s night Market will see nearly 50 new and returning stallholders plying their delicious wares under the autumn canopy of Robertson Park.

At Friday’s Night Market, FoodCare volunteers will be raffling off two great prizes, including two tickets to Forage, the sold-out signature event of FOOD Week.

Enjoy award-winning food from local chefs, cooks, and caterers while sipping cool-climate wines, ciders, spirits, and craft beers from around the region. A full list of stallholders can be found on Pages 10–11.

The other prize is a generous local food and wine hamper provided by Ashcroft’s IGA, which has long been a supporter of FoodCare. Tickets are $5 each or five for $20.

“FOOD Week is all about celebrating food and wine and all the amazing experiences in Orange and people should experience all those beautiful things Orange has, but it also brings home that there are a lot of people who certainly aren’t able to go and spend a huge amount of money on those experiences,” Tim said.

“We will have a stall down at the Night Markets, you can buy a ticket on the night, and the winners will be announced at the end of the evening,” Tim said.

“Food is more expensive, rents are more expensive, electricity – all those costs that everyone is feeling in their households, it has the biggest effect on those that have the least.”

You can also help FoodCare by making a donation when purchasing tickets to the Night Market and other FOOD Week events via the FOOD Week website: orangefoodweek.com.au/all-events

What do you do for a living and what do you love about it.

This is a complex question for me as I wear many hats! I come from an operations and business management background, mostly in financial services. About 12 months ago though, I was in burn out, and so quit my senior, very high stress ops role for a multinational company, and went out on my own. I now contract as a Business Manager for a couple of clients across Australia (working mostly remotely), and I also run a consulting business to help organisations looking to improve or build on their operations, service, or strategy. I also own and run Argyle Australian Saffron, and we produce world class saffron from our property in Lidster, just outside Orange.

This is my pride and joy as we built the business from scratch, had to learn through success and failure, and have grown it to be a successful and award-winning business. I love different things about all the hats I wear, but the overarching commonality is that I love to build, create, and watch things grow. Whether that’s a business, or a saffron bulb. There is nothing more satisfying that getting an order on our saffron website, and knowing that what you are packing in that box, you grew from nothing. I also love the flexibility of working remotely to fit around my young family, and that every day is different.

How long have you lived here and what do you love about it?

We quit our corporate jobs and moved to Orange/Lidster in 2016. I love so many things about it, but the top of the list is that we are surrounded by a community of supportive, welcoming, progressive, growth minded, interesting people. We were welcomed into the Nashdale community with open arms, and feel stupidly lucky that our kids get to go to the most amazing school where everyone knows and truly cares for each other. We get to go to social events where kids get to run around in the dark together playing, while the adults socialise, and you know not only is everyone safe, but that really core memories and values are being forged. A very close second to this is the amazing, healthy produce we are surrounded by. We regularly cook dinner with the majority of ingredients from our own backyard, or from neighbours, and that just feels (in this day and age), like some sort of secret, healthy, wholesome fantasy land we are living in. Like, why wouldn’t everyone live here!!

Could Orange become the new Kingdom of Ironfest?

Ironfest, Lithgow’s truly unique, nominally steelthemed arts/history/pop culture festival, is looking for a new home.

Founded in 2000 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the steel industry in Lithgow, Ironfest grew into one of the most eclectic and eccentric festivals in Australia. With a changing annual theme, it brought together artists, blacksmiths, machine enthusiasts, cosplayers, science fiction fans and historical reenactors of all periods.

But like so many other festivals and events, it struggled to reemerge after it was cancelled in 2020 due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

A scaled-down Ironfest took place at Portland in 2024 but the festival has again been cancelled for 2025, in part due to the ill-health of founder and festival director Macgregor Ross.

Mac, as he is better known, is now

looking for someone to take over the festival and he’s even open to finding a new home for Ironfest anywhere in NSW. “I think Ironfest would work pretty much anywhere in the state, but whoever takes it on will be taking on risk, and I don’t want them to fail, so I’d like to keep it in Lithgow or around Lithgow, but it is about finding the people to do it,” Mac said, making clear that it will require someone else to step up and make the festival happen.

“I’m not wanting to bring Ironfest anywhere, I’m wanting to find people who can actually organise it and maybe organise it in their area,” he said.

“They need a skillset and not necessarily even experience, I’m willing to help in the handover for one or possibly two years, depending. I want to make sure that they do a good job of it and that it is a success.”

But even with the right person, putting on a successful festival does require a significant financial commitment. Mac has estimated that it would take at least

$100,000 to bring Ironfest back to life.

“It is not a cheap thing to do! I don’t think many people outside of local government would have that sort of money to put on the event,” he said.

Mac has already had approaches about taking on Ironfest from people in places like Newcastle and Western Sydney, but ideally, he would like to see it remain on this side of the Blue Mountains.

Among the possible new locations suggested in the Ironfest Facebook group, Orange is one Mac can see potential in.

“I think it would be a real success in Orange because Orange has a lot of diversity – the food, the history, the arts… I think Orange would be, over any other area, the next most desirable [to Lithgow], even over the Nepean or Hawkesbury,” Mac said.

“But the Hawkesbury or somewhere around Western Sydney would work.

Bathurst would work. Newcastle or Wollongong would work too.”

Just 400 people attended the very first

Ironfest in 2000, but in the years just prior to Covid, it had grown to attract some 20,000 visitors to the Lithgow Showground, many coming back year after year.

“It’s the quirkiness of it that I was really proud of,” Mac said. “The thing about Ironfest was I used to call myself the festival director, but that assumes direction! Apart from coming up with the theme every year, we didn’t really set any direction. People came and we never said no. Sometimes, we would focus our marketing on a new aspect, so not everything would be all about the jousting or about tanks or steampunk, it would be all about a balance.

“There was wall-to-wall entertainment.

It had a great vibe. We didn’t have alcohol, it was very much about family and all different types of people and all ages… it was brilliant!”

Anyone interested in taking on the organisation of Ironfest can email ironfest@lisp.com.au or text 0432 328 460 to arrange a time to chat with Macgregor Ross.

Once forgotten veterans’ memories now set in stone made by students from Canobolas Rural Technology High School.

est we forget. It is a phrase repeated in RSL Clubs every evening and by the crowds of thousands who turn out to commemorate Anzac Day and Remembrance Day services around Australia every year.

But for 107 former soldiers discovered in unmarked graves at the Orange Cemetery, their memories had been forgotten. Many were foreign-born, migrating to Australia in the years after the war ended. Some were vagrants.

Some took their own lives. More than half had been inmates of the Bloomfield Hospital, suffering from what was then termed “Shell Shock” but now we would recognise as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

Now, thanks to the dedication of one local family history researcher, these soldiers are no longer forgotten, the names of each now engraved in a monument marking their final resting place in the Orange Cemetery.

On Saturday, March 22, a commemoration service was held at the cemetery to mark the end of a seven-year project to see headstones placed on every one of the former soldiers’ graves.

It began when Sharon Jameson, who was researching local servicemen ahead of the centenary of the First World War in 2018, discovered a number of veterans were lying in unmarked graves.

Moved by their stories, Sharon was determined to see a headstone on every grave and has doggedly pursued that goal over the past few years.

“But I thought, then it’s not finished, is it?” Sharon said. “So I decided to just see what we can do about getting normal little headstones for them… not big posh headstones, but proper long-lasting headstones.”

Sharon approached local businesses and raised more than $30,000 to have permanent grave markers made, getting contributions from Cadia Newmont, Orange Ex-Services Club, Orange City Council and the Department of Veteran Affairs.

Orange RSL Vice President Brad Bliss, Forgotten Soldiers founder John Thomspon, Sharon Jameson, Orange RSL President Chris Colvin, Orange Mayry Tony Mileto, State Member for Orange Phil Donato, Federal Member for Calare Andrew Gee, Lieutenant-Colonel Jason Stott, Commanding Officer 1st/19th RNSWR, and Warrant Officer Class One Dane Farquhar.

“It feels magnificent! It really does… and it’s such a sense of achievement,” Sharon said following Saturday’s commemoration service.

were made to the Office of Australian War Graves, and 40 soldiers who died as a direct result of war injuries were granted an official headstone.

The service, organised by the City of Orange RSL sub-branch, was attended

by Orange Mayor Tony Mileto, Federal Member for Calare Andrew Gee, State Member for Orange Phil Donato and representatives of the Australian Army.

Seventeen soldiers’ burial places could not be located in the cemetery so the Orange RSL sub-branch worked with Orange City Council to construct a memorial wall at the cemetery with their names engraved on it.

Also in attendance was John Thomas from Forgotten Diggers, an organisation dedicated to providing headstones for unmarked graves of WWI soldiers. It was with their assistance that applications

For the remaining 50 men who, for one reason or another, could not have an official war grave, white wooden crosses were originally erected by the Orange RSL sub-branch, who had them

Ben and Rebecca Crombie of McMurtrie & Co Stonemasons manufactured the headstones and installed them free of charge.

“I’m always one of these people to start something and not finish it, and so there’s a real sense of achievement,” Sharon said, proud to have got recognition for the men she has come to know personally through her extensive research.

“I know these guys! I do, especially the ones that have got remarkable stories,” she said, although too many of them are tinged with tragedy.

“It’s the ones that committed suicide that I mainly feel sorry for because it was not necessary, but they had nothing...

I can remember when I was a kid, the swaggies walking along the street, and now I think they were probably exsoldiers looking for their something to do.

“It’s given me a good appreciation for what these soldiers did in the war and what it did.”

Our goal is to provide quality Australian builds on time and on budget...

began ensuring every Bloomfield resident received a card at Christmas and Easter.

“Then it escalated to gifts, and now gift vouchers — $50 each Christmas,” Tania said.

The small, dedicated groups of fundraisers continue that work today, although they have big shoes to fill following the retirement of Auxiliary stalwart, the muchloved and respected Sister Mary Trainor OAM.

Bloomfield Auxiliary’s continuing work honouring decadeslong example set by Sr Mary Trainor

Sr Mary, who turns 93 this year, entered the Sisters of Mercy in 1951 and has given more than 70 years of service to the Bathurst Diocese. From teaching and organising parish music at local services, she moved into pastoral care at Bloomfield Hospital, where she became Chaplain, the first woman to do so.

“And they’ve agreed to include a plaque in the garden as a tribute to Sr Mary and her work out at Bloomfield,” Tania said, adding that Sr Mary herself may think the money better spent elsewhere.

“Sr Mary… she was the anchor, she had been a member of the Auxiliary for 40 years.

She was it,” Bloomfield Hospital Auxiliary president Tania O’Donohue said.

Andrew Gee MP

The Bloomfield Hospital Auxiliary is continuing the work of Sr Mary and is holding a fundraising book sale at the 2nd Orange Scout Hall in Kite Street this weekend.

The proceeds of the sale, Tania said, will be used to buy new seating and plants for the hospital grounds.

Sr Mary was the Bloomfield Hospital Chaplain for 22 years and continued to remain with the auxiliary for a total of 40 years, only recently moving into care at St Catherine’s in Bathurst.

Tania said it was Sister Mary who first

Sister Mary, she said, was the stalwart of their annual Mega Raffles, which funded their gift-giving and the purchase of things for the hospital.

“No, she is very modest,” Tania said. “Sr Mary was even modest about receiving The Order Of Australia Medal.”

Central West Tractor-thon assisting sick kids get the help they need

F

or 24 hours, an amazing team of more than 60 volunteers kept four little tractors driving laps of the Canowindra Showground on the weekend to raise money for the not-for-profit children’s charity, Little Wings.

The Central-West Tractor Trek Group have been a

supporter of Little Wings for the past six years, raising money through their annual tractor treks and the 24hour ‘Tractor-thon’.

With their help, and the help of incredible volunteer pilots and drivers, the charity is able to provide free, safe

It is through the support of the Central West Tractor Trek Group that Little Wings is able to help kids like 10-year-old Louis travel from Orange to Westmead Children’s Hospital for treatment of intracranial hypertension.

air and ground transportation for seriously ill and injured children in rural and remote NSW, Queensland and the ACT. Over Saturday and Sunday, March 22-23, the tractors completed 1728 laps around the Canowindra Showground, totalling 1382 kilometres. That’s the equivalent of driving from Sydney to Broken Hill!

Money raised from the Tractor-thon supports local families such as 10-year-old Louis.

Louis travels from Orange to Westmead Children’s Hospital with Little Wings for Paediatric neurologist monitoring and treatment of intracranial hypertension,

meaning a buildup of pressure around the brain. It is through the support of the Central West Tractor Trek Group that these journeys with Little Wings are made possible for Louis.

“Partnerships such as that with Tractor Trek are so, so critical for Little Wings.” CEO Clare Pearson said.

“Not only because they help us fuel missions, which is a critical part of our work, but they help us raise awareness, making sure that when families need us, they know about us… It’s an amazing community group that come together so selflessly to make a difference in the Central West.”

CRIME & COMMUNITY SAFETY I backed tougher bail laws for repeat young offenders committing serious crimes such as car theft and aggravated break and enters, while also pushing for greater investment in early intervention programs.

RAPID RESPONSE UNIT The NSW Government has launched a new rapid response unit made up of up to 60 dedicated police officers to tackle serious and violent youth crime in regional hotspots — including Orange. An additional 20 officers will boost the unit each week through surge operations, bringing the total to 80 officers on the ground over the next three months. This is about prevention, disruption, and fast response; Focused on serious youth crime; Aims to reduce fear in the community and restore confidence. I welcome this move and will continue advocating for more police resources and support to keep our regional communities safe.

ROYAL FAR WEST TURNS 100 I acknowledged the century of incredible work Royal Far West has done in supporting the health and wellbeing of country kids — celebrated with a moving photographic exhibition and commemorative book.

A moving service at Orange Cemetery honoured 107 previously unmarked WWI graves, now properly recognised thanks to Sharon Jameson and the Orange RSL Sub Branch. Their service will never be forgotten.

COST OF LIVING RELIEF I called on the Government to urgently deliver support for families, pensioners and small businesses struggling with soaring prices for essentials like food, fuel, rent and power. No one should have to choose between heating and eating.

FLOOD RECOVERY I questioned the Minister on the slow recovery progress in Eugowra, Forbes and surrounding areas, where many residents remain in temporary housing more than two years on. I continue to work with local councils to ensure our communities get the support they deserve.

Career-building opportunity for local musos to get out on the road

M

usicNSW is looking for local solo artists, duos and bands ready to take that next step and hit the

road on a regional tour.

It’s an opportunity for tour-ready original acts to connect with other artists, grow new audiences, and learn more about touring, says Sophie Jones, the MusicNSW Regional Coordinator for the Central West, Outback and West Darling regions.

“We are looking for tour-ready artists that are performing all of their own original music,” Sophie said.

members) of all genres are invited to submit an EOI to join one of five regional touring opportunities being run by MusicNSW in 2025.

you work with venues and with other bands, so a lot of this is about capacity building and professional development,” Sophie said.

“This year there is a metal tour because there are a lot of metal bands that feel a bit unrepresented that live out in the regions, so we are doing a metal-specific tour that’s going to the Riverina, Dubbo and Newcastle,” Sophie said.

“But the thing that’s really special about these tours is they are doing all their own original music… they’re not doing covers in the corner of a pub, but they get to go somewhere and play all their own original music, which is really, really special.”

“The tour I’m working on this year is called the ‘Songbird Sessions’ and we are looking for singer/songwriters, solos, duos and trios to tour through Central West cafes, which is really exciting!”

In 2024, Orange singer-songwriter Megan Woods joined Bathurst band Liquid Culture and Cobar’s Baeden Faint on an outback tour to Cobar, Wilcannia and Broken Hill.

As well as the opportunity for artists to play their music in front of new audiences, being part of the program means getting to learn the ins and outs of the touring business and building the skills they need to plan and book tours of their own.

“We are looking for artists that are emerging but also in that mid-career level, so emerging and established artists… artists who have maybe started to do a bit of touring around the region but want a little more support to be able to do so.”

“They work closely with us and get to look at how you would book a tour, how

Megan said the experience was a real eye-opener.

“Not only to go so far out west but just to experience what it would be like being on the road day-in-day-out living the music dream,” Megan said.

“To get up and do three shows, three

One thing Megan learned was the advantages of reaching out to local musos while on the road.

“We are all doing this because we love the music, so why not lean on each other for support? If you need something, there is someone who can help you with that, whether you need a PA or a microphone or help finding a venue,” Megan said, adding that she has already been able to organise future gigs thanks to people she met on the tour.

“That was one of the biggest takeaways I had, to reach out to other musos, and chat with them and see what magic can come from it, which was really cool.”

Anyone interested in taking part in a tour with MusicNSW must submit an application by April 9. For more information, visit: www.musicnsw.com

Schools Unite for

Harmony Day CELEBRATION — by EMILY THOMPSON — Spring Terrace and Spring Hill Public Schools joined forces last week to celebrate cultural diversity on Harmony Day, marking the occasion with a shared lunch and festivities.

Spring Terrace Public School hosted the event, welcoming students, families, and friends to enjoy a feast of traditional foods from various cultures. Stage Three students prepared spanakopita at school, which was served alongside popular dishes such as sushi, spring rolls, and fairy bread. Students gathered around a large communal table, sharing food and conversation in a spirit of unity.

Harmony Day, celebrated in schools across the country, is a time to recognise, respect, and embrace the diverse cultural backgrounds of students. As part of the celebration, some children and staff dressed in orange—symbolising harmony and inclusivity—or wore clothing representing their heritage. The day provided an opportunity to foster a sense of belonging and strengthen connections within the school community.

Spring Terrace Public School Principal Melanie Winters described the event as a great success, highlighting the fun and enjoyment shared by all involved.

The event showcased the power of inclusivity, reminding students and families of the richness that cultural diversity brings to their school and beyond.

OFFICAL OPENING OF THE YARNING CIRCLE AT ST MARY’S CATHOLIC SCHOOL Photos by CEC TILBURG

St Mary’s Catholic School recently celebrated the official opening of their new Yarning Circle—a dedicated space for storytelling and cultural exchange. The ceremony featured a traditional smoking ritual led by an Aboriginal elder, symbolising purification and the welcoming of positive energies.

Father Greg Bellamy blessed the area, emphasising its significance as a communal gathering spot.

This project was made possible through the dedicated efforts of Ben Benton and Chrissy Burgess, with support from TAFE. TAFE teacher Scott Edwards also played a pivotal role in organising the signage, adding an educational touch to the space. The Yarning Circle stands as a testament to the school’s commitment to embracing and honouring Indigenous traditions, providing students and community members with a meaningful place for reflection and connection.

Cadia Flicks The Switch On Real-Time Noise Monitoring For Greater Transparency

R

eal-time noise data at Newmont Cadia will be available to the public around the clock, thanks to a new state-of-the-art monitoring and reporting system designed to further enhance transparency and

accountability.

Operating 24/7, the program provides continuous noise monitoring from a network of specialised monitors positioned around the site perimeter. These capture real-time noise levels, including A-weighted (LAeq) and low frequency levels – as well as wind speed – at the monitoring location.

Data is then transmitted via the Telstra mobile network in five-minute increments to the Cadia website for the public to access.

Newmont Cadia’s Director of Environment David Coe said the program is another step forward in enhancing

environmental transparency and strengthening Cadia’s relationship with the local community.

“Cadia is proud to implement disclosure of noise monitoring data, responding to our neighbours’ requests for real-time access to the same data that we use to manage our operations,” Mr Coe said.

“We want the community to stay informed in order to partner with us as we seek to minimise the impacts of our operations.

“This initiative goes beyond our statutory compliance obligations to set a higher standard for responsible mining in Australia.”

The real-time noise monitoring system will operate continuously, analysing noise and weather conditions to meet the highest Australian and New Zealand standards. The system captures all environmental noise, including natural sounds, community noise and mining operations.

Noise levels are measured in decibels (dB) using a logarithmic scale to reflect human hearing sensitivity.

LAeq represents the average noise level over time, while low-frequency noise relates to the industrial noise frequency range.

Cadia’s noise monitoring aligns with its broader environmental management strategy, which includes routine noise surveys as well as independent assessments to ensure ongoing improvements in environmental performance.

This system is the second in a series of real-time monitoring programs which have been developed and made available to the public, with real-time disclosure of air quality monitoring data launched in 2024.

TUNING IN WITH MICHAEL KEMP

When I moved into my current house, to my great surprise there was no TV antenna on the roof. So we used a small inside antenna as a stop gap. It was so delicate! Opening the curtains could disrupt it; even people walking around. So when we turned on the TV you could tell there was supposed to be signal – but the picture was poor and intermittent. We have since swapped to a smart TV and just use the internet to get a high quality picture.

God is trying to send us a message too. Looking at the world around us is like my dodgy antenna. The amazing beauty of nature and the spectacular details point to something really special about the God who made it all. However, it misses out lots of information. The picture is unclear.

Thankfully God has come into this world in a way that gives a crystal clear image. He came into this world as Jesus. Through Jesus we learn that God deeply cares for us and wants us to live for him. The event is written down for us. Tune in via your internet to ‘gospel of Mark’ for a clear picture.

Ingredients: • 1 cup self-raising flour I grew up in Wollongong, and we had a family “weekender” at Coalcliff (my how the economy has changed!). We spent weekends and school holidays at this tiny cliff top shack with my grandparents. There was a large frangipani tree in the front yard, and the backyard had a lookout over the beach, but it was overgrown with a crazy passionfruit vine. To this day, I can’t smell passionfruit without thinking of ocean spray and my grandmother’s passionfruit slice. She also made a lovely passionfruit sponge cake (in a star shaped tin of course) and everyone’s favourite vanilla slice topped with passionfruit icing that was made with the good old lattice bikkies!

COMMEMORATIVE SERVICE – FORGOTTEN DIGGERS OF WORLD WAR ONE

Suicide, may our nation re-commit itself to the care and welfare of our veterans, their families, and the men and women who serve Australia so faithfully in uniform.

Lest We Forget.

Their service is part of our Australian story and this commemoration symbolised our country belatedly honouring all that those Diggers went through for us.

Tragically when they returned home, many carried the physical and mental scars of that conflict. Some fell on hard times as they struggled with the horrors they experienced. Many lives were cut short and when they passed away, many of their graves were not permanently marked. Their service and their stories were lost to history.

The men and women who serve our country never ask for much. In the end it comes down to one simple thing: that we remember them.

GOVERNOR PRESENTS BRAVERY AWARDS TO LOCAL HEROES – EUGOWRA

T

he heroic efforts of the Eugowra community were formally acknowledged recently at the Royal Humane Society’s prestigious Awards for Bravery.

“On the Hardest Days” captured the tragic events of the Eugowra Flood. On Monday, November 14, 2022, over 80% of Eugowra’s buildings and businesses were destroyed, and two lives were tragically lost.

Her Excellency the Honourable Margaret Beazley AC KC, Governor of NSW, visited Eugowra to officially open the Eugowra Community Centre and present the Awards for Bravery Investiture. This was a historic, first of its kind event. Never before in Australia’s history has such a significant bravery ceremony been held outside Government House.

The event featured a performance by the children of St. Joseph’s Catholic Primary School, led by their music teacher, Mrs. Nerida Cuddy. Their beautiful singing,

FACT CHECK

E

Our thoughts remain with the residents of all communities affected by that tragic day, especially the friends and family of those who lost loved ones.

Here’s to the many good times ahead in which the Eugowra Community Centre will stand proudly as both a shelter and wonderful venue for future celebrations!

In 2020 I was able to secure federal funding for the construction of the centre

which should be above politics.

The claim that I voted against this Bill is utterly FALSE.

If you’re campaigning for Parliament on transparency it really does help to not only get your facts straight, but also understand how the Parliament actually works.

ORANGE ELECTORATE OFFICE 1/179A Anson Street PO Box 673 ORANGE NSW 2800

I offer my deepest gratitude to everyone, both locally and across the nation, who have contributed to the recovery and rebuilding efforts. To the ordinary citizens who performed extraordinary acts of bravery that day and thereafter, we commend you all.

The ceremony celebrated the selfless acts of bravery displayed by members of the SES, RFS, Police, the Eugowra community, and even two young children, Amber 7 and Braydon 10, who acted with extraordinary courage. More rescues occurred on that day than any other in Australia’s history. As Her Excellency listened to each story and presented over 50 awards, she was visibly moved by the profound acts of heroism.

arlier this week another candidate for Calare, Kate Hook, put up a post falsely claiming that I voted against the Wage Justice for Early Childhood Education and Care Bill which was about much deserved pay rises for early education workers.

What I voted against was a very political Liberal/National AMENDMENT to the Bill which served no useful purpose except point scoring on a topic

with $498,000 which was then topped up with funding from Cabonne Council and more recently disaster recovery funding.

When the actual Bill was put to a vote there was nobody opposing it and it passed easily through the House of Representatives with “the ayes have it”. I was one of the members in the chamber proudly supporting the Bill.

To state that I voted against this Bill is false, ludicrous and very disappointing.

YOURSPACE reception@oclife.com.au Have something of interest to share?

Have you ever been approached to join a choir??

Did you roll your eyes and the colour drain from your face as you recall vividly being told to lyp sync in the school choir. Worse still you were unceremoniously relegated to the back row so no one could hear you!! Sadly, this is such a common experience, and it could be so different.

Music, better still, community singing, sets us apart as humans, and is showcased in choirs.

Around the world, community choir numbers are growing, as people discover the benefits of singing together, how it impacts their wellbeing and improves their mood. Choral music in the 21st century is undergoing a cultural renaissance; the choral world one of the most accessible avenues to the public to stay connected and preserve cultural heritage.

For me personally, choir has offered me so many unique experiences and friendships, a sense of belonging, taken me into cathedrals, and nursing homes, into shopping malls and festivals. It has made me listen harder, given me space to pause, to breath; it has brought me to tears way to often to admit; it has offered me expression for those unspoken emotions.

Cantar Community Choir members have for over 20 years now, known the value and joy of making music together – of coming together,

28 ORANGE CITY LIFE | MARCH 27 — APRIL 2, 2025

to rehearse “bringing our combined energy and imagination to one point” (Ed Ayres, Whole Notes, 2021). We know the joy and wellbeing that comes from performance, from blending voices, from developing good vocal technique, listening to one another, aiming for one unified beautiful sound, for sharing with audiences.

All this cannot happen though, without the guidance of a musical director. Over the years I have attended Cantar, I have played this role, chiefly in a part time capacity, sharing the role with our past MD, Gabe Rae. Gabe brought a wealth of experience and passion to our ensemble, but in 2024, she hung up her baton to pursue other interests. Sharing the role of Music Director provides light and shade to a vocal group – means both persons can enjoy the experience of singing as well as leading.

As Cantar comes to the end of Term 1, we are seeking to hire a second Music Director, a part time role, as we only rehearse on a Monday night. If considering applying for this role, applicants need proven choral conducting experience, a sense of enthusiasm and fun, patience, a clear vision for musical interpretation and great communication skills.

Cantar looks forward to hearing from you!

also provide a taxi service, where Alison can arrange to pick up animals for grooming at a small additional cost.

Her pet care services have welcomed dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles like snakes and lizards, guinea pigs, chickens and alpacas to name a few.

Alison, a former full-time nurse who still works casually in the industry, initially started the business at the end of 2019 primarily as a dog-walking service.

“I’m not afraid to deal with whatever animal people have as their pets,” she said.

Despite COVID-19 being just a few months away in March 2020, Alison stuck at it through the pandemic and within 12 months was able to obtain a sizeable client base.

“Some of the jobs I have had across the last couple of years have had six or seven species on the one property. It always keeps it interesting for me too.”

After originally walking the dogs of many customers, some have stayed on for Alison’s grooming and pet care services now called On the Go Grooming and Pet Care.

Aunty Alison

Within pet care, Alison can visit pets twice a day to feed and care for animals while people are away with work, personal or other commitments.

“A few owners would say to their dogs: ‘aunty Alison is coming for a walk’,” Alison said.

She transitioned towards more grooming and pet care late last year when knee and arm injuries made the walking side of things more difficult.

“I had always thought when the walking

“I always try to be professional with people but also friendly.

“The pet’s welfare is always my first priority.

“I do what I say I’m going to do.”

That caring nature and a little extra love is another key part of the business.

CROSSWORD

THUMBS EMAIL: reception@oclife.com.au | 6361 3575

THUMBS UP to the cleaning lady at North Orange Shopping Centre. I think her name is Dee. I do my shopping every Friday, and I always notice her working so hard and her attention to detail. She is also very friendly and helpful towards people.

The ladies’ amenities are so spotless. I appreciate you, as I’m certain many do.

THUMBS UP to Katie and staff at Katie’s Kafe Molong. We had a very delicious takeaway there last week. Very efficient and friendly service. We will be back. If you live in Molong – or passing through – check out Katie’s Kafe, you won’t be disappointed.

THUMBS UP to Sandee’s Snack

THUMBS UP There are no words

Shack, the staff cafeteria at the Orange Health Service. Sandee goes over and beyond for us to ease us all into a blissful calmness when we get the ‘hangeries’ in our very interesting working environment.

to describe the Orange Regional Music Conservatorium Music Marathon. How amazing are the team that worked tirelessly to showcase their incredible musical abilities and how passionate they are working towards our new conservatorium. Thank you – Orange is lucky to have you all.

THUMBS UP to Zoe and Emily and all staff at Canobolas Vet clinic.

THUMBS DOWN to Orange City

Council for only donating $2000 to the Royal Flying Doctor Service, with the excuse that they are not in our LGA. I have always believed that the RFDS were a regional Australian entity who were always there to help you no matter what LGA you were from. I sincerely hope that neither any of the councillors and/or their families have an accident or serious illness outside of our LGA.

THUMBS UP to the true gentleman (driving a Domino’s delivery car) who offered help while I was putting air in my tyre at the Shell service station Summer St, March 18.

THUMBS UPand thank you to the young tradies who came to help me in the car park of a well-known hardware store.

The store no longer offers the service of cutting timber for customers. I was attempting to cut a piece of flooring in two so I could get it into my ute, and these two young men stopped to help and had the job done in no time. There are some great young blokes out there!

THUMBS DOWN to the ground staff at our very nearby golf club who seem to think it’s OK to start up noisy power tools at 4.30am onwards, including Saturday and Sundays. Please have some consideration for residents.

THUMBS UP to Paul and the crew from Orange Pest Control Services for the great job done to fix my problem with wasp nests. Prompt response and service at a very reasonable price.

THUMBS DOWN to the people

and their wandering dogs that attacked the geese out at Blayney recently. Surely the remaining geese can be taken away to somewhere safe to live.

THUMBS DOWN to the man in the black car who was doing well over the 50km/h speed limit going into Spring Hill (Monday, March 17). When a couple out walking gently waved for him to slow down, he stopped his car in the middle of the road, got out and yelled obscenties.

What’s making you so angry? Probably time you got some help.

THUMBS UP Many thanks to the very pleasant staff member at Harris Farms who went out of her way to help me organise a Singapore orchid. It was most appreciated.

THUMBS UP to Jo and staff at Millthorpe Post Office who went above and beyond to help a confused older customer out of a difficult predicament. It is a pleasure to go to both the post office and pharmacy at Millthorpe.

THUMBS UP to the person who gave the Thumbs Down to Orange Taxi Service, or lack thereof. We’ve had a few experiences where drivers haven’t turned up. Too bad if it was an emergency!

THUMBS UP and a big thank you to a small group of very young children and their tutor who sang and moved – with enthusiasm – parts of their bodies around to the accompanying music last Saturday afternoon as part of their act to support the conservatorium’s 24-hour non-stop music programme. They were really great and were one of the highlights of the event.

THUMBS UP to the three people seen recently at Gosling Creek Reserve restaking fallen saplings. Inspiring to see such care and commitment on a voluntary basis. Well done!

THUMBS UP to the locals of Spring Hill who do such a great job to keep the Spring Hill Recreation Ground and the village itself so neat and tidy. So good to see such care.

THUMBS UP to the inaugural P&C, who in 1967, tasked with naming the new high school under construction in Icely Road voted unanimously for ‘The Canobolas High School’ to be the official name. This decision was agreed to by Charles Cutler the then-MP for Orange, Deputy Premier and Minister for Education.

The Orange Netball Association’s annual Gala Day marked the pre season of the netball, bringing together the junior teams for a day of spirited competition and camaraderie. This year’s event was particularly notable with the introduction of the Under 18 division, allowing older juniors to participate in the junior competition.

Teams from various clubs, including Vipers, OPS, Waratahs, Hawks, Life Studio, & Cyms netball showcased their talents in a round-robin format. The day concluded with the following results across the divisions: • Under 8/9s: A tie between Hawks MJD and OPS Nuggets • Under 10s: Hawks GJ Gardiner emerged victorious • Under 11/12s: Hawks BnB Made Easy clinched the title • Under 13/14s: The Blue Yets took the top spot • Under 15s: Vipers secured the win • Under 16/18s: Vipers U18s Black dominated their division The Gala Day not only highlighted the players’ skills but also fostered community spirit, setting a positive tone for the upcoming netball season.
