TERELLA BREWING PLANNED UPGRADE Terella Brewing at North Arm has become a popular venue over the past 5 years for locals and visitors to the region. The owners of the venue recently applied for a Material Change of Use (MCU) with Sunshine Coast Council (SCC) to upgrade the venue to include a restaurant, boutique vodka and gin distillery, gazebos, bitumen carparking, infrastructure improvements and acoustic measures. Currently the venue is only approved to sell food from food trucks.

Terella recently released a social media post which indicated that misinformation was being spread about their proposed development application.

The owners of Terella Brewing stressed that the planned changes have not wavered from the founder’s vision – that of a family friendly venue where children can enjoy rural life, time away from screens and provide parents with a place to relax. The MCU aims to enhance the site experience for families.

Cont. from p1 In an online statement from Terella Brewing some of their responses: “The MCU will reduce its current capacity by setting new limits on the number of visitors and parking spaces. We are not expanding beyond our existing footprint. We are simply adding a restaurant and a small distillery while maintaining our family-friendly atmosphere.

“We operate as a working farm and familyfriendly venue, centred around our brewery and petting zoo. Our cattle even consume the spent grain from the brewing process. The brewing process is almost silent, with no noise detectable outside the building, and it produces no offensive odours. Our only emissions are spent grain and steam. Preserving and promoting a rural lifestyle is central to our mission.

environmental stewardship, with plans to plant hundreds of native trees to restore and enrich the natural landscape, aiming to leave the property in a better condition than we found it.

“Our new submission to SCC includes stricter noise controls than before. An acoustic study has been completed, and based on the findings our new noise limits will be even lower than current levels – comparable to the sound of an acoustic guitarist playing outside.

“There are no plans for mezzanines, second floors, or any three-storey buildings.

“A professional traffic management study has been completed, demonstrating that the planned improvements will significantly enhance traffic flow on Bunya Rd, resulting in a smoother, safer experience for all road users.

“The property was originally a cane farm, cleared of most trees decades ago. We are committed to

“We believe our development will benefit the community by creating jobs, offering locally made food and spirits, and providing a safe, welcoming space that celebrates craftsmanship.

We’re proud of our quality beer and look forward to bringing the same dedication to our food and spirits.”

If the proposed MCU is unsuccessful the venue will continue to operate in its current capacity.

Stop Screaming, I’m Scared Too

Mental health first aid

Rod Henderson was a soldier in the Australian Army for 22 years before being medically retired at the age of 40, after injuring his back in a Chinook helicopter crash in Afghanistan. He said the move into civilian life was the hardest thing he’d ever done. At the Royal Commission into Defence and Veteran Suicide he argued that the military did not adequately prepare its members for life after discharge, leaving many struggling.

Noosa Council is holding free training sessions in mental health first aid on 5&12 December.

Funding has been provided from the Australian and Qld Governments through disaster recovery funding arrangements. Both days must be completed to gain a certificate.

Rod wrote Stop Screaming, I’m Scared Too: A soldier’s memory of war, PTSD and transitioning back to civilian life to help him come to terms with his old and new lives. He will be available for book signings at Berkelouw Books, Eumundi on 23 November between 9am and midday.

Visit: berkelouw.com.au.

Attendees will learn how to recognise the signs and symptoms of mental health problems and learn the skills to feel confident to assist. The aim is to increase mental health literacy, increase confidence in providing mental health first aid, decrease stigmatising attitudes and increase support for others. Training will be held at the Noosaville Library from 9am-4pm on both days.

There will also be wellbeing workshops, paint ‘n’ sip events, room hire for private events and even a retail space – making it a place where locals can relax, connect and heal.

Barb Blashki the founder of the Kanyini Collective said, “This isn’t just about business – it’s about building sustainable support systems. Kanyini is about belonging – helping individuals feel connected to themselves, the community, and the natural world.”

Eumundi Voice is a key fundraising project run

by Eumundi Rotary Initiatives Ltd (ERIL) which is a not-for-profit organisation. Funds raised from the production of Eumundi Voice are distributed to local community organisations and groups to support their work. Eumundi Voice has donated over $44,000 back to the community in just over 4 years of operation.

Applications are now open. To apply for a donation visit: eumundivoice.com.au/ fundraising-donations/. Applications close on 30 November.

The central mission of the Kanyini Collective is to fund Hoofbeats Sanctuary – Qld’s only provider of free equine therapy programs. Located in Doonan, the sanctuary provides a safe space for individuals recovering from trauma, especially those for whom traditional forms of therapy have not been of benefit. Equine therapy helps participants develop emotional resilience, trust and self-awareness – all under the guidance of trained professionals.

SCC Mayor Rosanna Natoli – who has three decades of TV experience – spoke excitedly about the council’s full support for the screen industry.

“The energy that is so creative on the Sunshine Coast drives the passion which will see us attract world attention. The eyes of the world being on us, leading up to the Olympics and the legacy afterwards, is the biggest opportunity for generations,” said Rosanna.

Exciting future for local film industry A cultural Olympiad on the Sunshine Coast to complement the 2032 Brisbane Olympic Games? A thriving film, TV and digital games industry attracting a global audience? Funding already available to unlock opportunities for emerging filmmakers, crews, scriptwriters, actors, producers and directors willing to tell our stories in our incredible locations?

It isn't wishful dreaming. It’s already happening, as the Sunshine Coast strives to be a leading force in the film industry.

The 3rd annual Sunshine Coast Screen Collective Summit attracted a huge attendance this month at the Maroochydore RSL. Actor Lincoln Lewis urged more people to get involved saying, “We already have some outstanding films made here with many more

Jacqui Feeney CEO of Screen Queensland said, “It’s not just our beautiful locations but the richness of our stories which need telling.

Opportunities are now available to get these onto screen, not just for film and TV but also digital gaming, which is the future market for many emerging talents.”

The Sunshine Coast University’s Digital Games Summit on 17 November will also encourage creative and online publishing. The SCC’s new head of Economic Development Chris LeServe said, “Exciting future opportunities include providing talented film crews who are essential in the industry.”

The screen industry in 2023 added $1.2B to Australia's economy with $700M coming from Qld with a 30% share of national production.

The Sunshine Coast Screen Collective hopes to get a huge share in the future with a production hub based right here on the Sunshine Coast.

Tours were offered of the spectacular 35-acre property’s sculptures, ‘Eumundi House’ and gardens.

The lack of fences between house and outbuildings supports the owners’ habitat regeneration project to encourage diversity and free movement of wildlife. Their vision is not a wilderness as such, but a place for wildness.

New structures forge a close relationship with a herd of brumbies that enjoy close to free range among the over 60 magnificent sculptures within the Sanctuary’s contours.

Combined with perhaps the best aspect – the beautiful view of Mt Cooroy known as ‘Moon Mountain’. This all provided visitors with an exceptional experience.

Rapid response housing solution Floods, bushfires, droughts, house fires, financial crises, eviction, family breakdown, domestic violence, community conflicts, homelessness – thousands of Australians face one or more of these each year requiring rapid response accommodation until they can return home or start anew.

The answer could be an Expanda Box, a collapsable unit which converts in minutes into a fully functional, water resistant, strong, fireproof, pre-wired, versatile and affordable pod designed and manufactured by Maroochydore’s Wayne Loane. There is no trade experience needed for assembly.

At a recent presentation to members of the Rotary Club of Eumundi, Wayne explained how Expanda Boxes have already been purchased by several emergency response organisations working in the Northern Rivers region of NSW to provide immediate shelter for flood victims.

Backed by many Rotary districts, the Expanda Boxes can accommodate individuals in need for up to 2 years rent free. This allows peace of mind so mental and financial recovery can take place, while insurance claims are settled, and rebuilding or relocating begins.

The pods flatten down to 0.5m in height. Twelve can be transported on one tray truck. This allows for hundreds that could be stored in a warehouse, ready for immediate deployment to designated

parks, sportsgrounds or other suitable sites with access to water, toilets and electricity.

Wayne said, “These are the answer to all rapid response housing needs because of their quick assembly, size and versatility. Each pod costs $15,000 and can be reused wherever the next emergency happens.”

He hopes councils, charities, community groups and other help organisations will consider purchasing them as an emergency accommodation solution for domestic violence victims and people without a home. Eumundi Rotary is investigating this possibility.

Expanda Boxes are also available for individual purchase to use as camp or holiday accommodation, a granny flat, office space or an extra room. They come in various fully insulated designs and sizes to include ensuite, double glazed doors, even awnings.

October has passed and the festive season is well and truly upon us. Everything gets busier at this time of the year, including policing. The longer, hotter days with more socialising and end of year Christmas parties can often increase our calls for service.

It is also the time when the Qld Police Service focuses on road safety. I uphold the same firm beliefs of the Qld Police Service – to keep the people, place and communities of Qld safe through excellence in policing and community safety services. Blair, Dave, Gary and myself at Eumundi Police Station all want everyone to be safe on our roads. You will see us out in force over the months leading up to Christmas and into the New Year. Do not be alarmed if we pull you over as it will most likely be for a breath test.

During October Eumundi Police Division had 150 calls for service ranging from traffic crashes and intruder alarms to personal and relationship crises. Domestic incidents attended remained steady with 18 matters where police provided assistance. Of significant note was a serious matter that occurred on the Bruce Highway in the early hours of 29 October. A couple of young male adults stopped on the highway to help another motorist who had crashed. The driver of the crashed car threatened them with a gun and then stole their car. Luckily the 2 young male adults were not physically hurt and were smart enough just to hand over the keys to their car. As police, we often say that property can be replaced but lives cannot be given back. After

22

some great police work the male responsible was arrested the next day in Cooroy and remanded in custody.

Finally on a very sad note, a family from the Doonan community lost their 19yo son in a fatal motorcycle crash in Noosa on 25 October.

The police investigation is continuing however from what I have been told, he was a great young man and leaves behind a loving family.

For those that know the family, please support them to help them through this difficult time. It is always timely to have a conversation with your own family and friends about being careful on the roads.

So stay safe and look after yourself and your loved ones.

OUT AND ABOUT

Matso’s launch new refreshment Matso’s Sunshine Coast turned on some fun on 30 October to celebrate the launch of their refreshing new Vodka Lemon Lime Crush drink, which will soon be distilled on the premises right here in Eumundi. Guests enjoyed some giant ‘soft toss’ games, nibbles and samples of the new handcrafted refreshment.

Ginger Factory performance Visitors to the Ginger Factory were recently treated to a performance by the Eumundi State School senior band. Conducted by music teacher Liz Druitt, brass, woodwind and percussion students played a selection of pieces showcasing the culmination of their hard work throughout the year. Liz said the concert celebrated the Yr6 students who would soon be leaving the school.

After their efforts the students were free to enjoy the attractions of the train and boat rides.

Interesting mailboxes Each week our dedicated Eumundi Voice delivery heroes pop a copy of the latest issue into as many mailboxes as we can in the area. One of our deliverers recently snapped a photo of this unique mailbox on his delivery run around the time of the Royal visit to Australia. We get to see a lot of unique letterboxes!

We are always looking for more members to join our volunteer team. If you would like to deliver in your area, please reach out to the team at hello@eumundivoice.com.au. We would love to have more delivery heroes!

YOUTH

Jon Gemmell: Nurturing our future generations

Jon Gemmell: Nurturing our future generations The Enviro Program at Eumundi State School (ESS) is an extraordinary initiative that has been nurtured and led by Jon Gemmell for 29 years.

Incorporating hands-on learning in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics (STEAM), the children at ESS look forward to their Enviro Days, multiple times a year.

The Enviro Program encourages students to be connected to nature, introduces them to the science and environmental features of working with nature, enhances students’ wellbeing and promotes healthy choices. It is truly an immersive practical learning experience.

The extensive gardens are filled with edible berries, fruits and vegetables, citrus, bananas, pecan nuts, mulberries and ice cream bean trees, which are given to Eumunchi Cafe (the school tuck shop), or eaten by the children. The chooks’ eggs are used in the Enviro kitchen, and the compostable waste from the markets is fed to the composting worms. The school also donates boxes of food grown in the Enviro Centre to families in need.

Mr Gemmell not only teaches children in this unique learning space, but also builds connections with teachers and community members as they collaborate on the learning with students. Miss Nat and Mr Ollie, along with Chappy Sam, work together to bring the Enviro experience to life for students, from yoga to 24

gardening and science experiments.

Acting Principal Kelly Jeppesen said, “The Enviro program at Eumundi would not be what it is today without the vision, commitment and dedication of Mr Gemmell and the team who work with him to ensure every student has this very special learning experience.”

Mr Gemmell has recently accepted the Acting Deputy Principal role at Cunnamulla School in western Qld until the end of this year with his future yet to be decided. We wish him luck in his new endeavour. Robyn Simpson

The 1960s Menzies government considered that married women could not manage both home and work. In addition, a husband could provide for his wife and she was taking a job that should go to either a man or a spinster who needed an income. The marriage bar had the full support of the unions.

ON THIS DAY

Lifting of the marriage bar

Things have improved enormously for women’s employment but anniversaries such as the lifting of the marriage bar are not just vague historical facts. They had a real impact on women and their families and lives.

An important anniversary likely to pass by unnoticed on 18 November was the lifting of the marriage bar on that day in 1966. For the first time in Australia, married women could work in the Commonwealth Public Service. The marriage bar was inherited from Britain and even though the UK abolished it after WWII, it remained in place in Australia. State governments and many private sector employers followed the commonwealth’s example. Many women hid their marriages but were fired if their pregnancy became apparent.

My mother had to resign from a job she loved in the NSW Forestry Department when she married in 1954. I also worked with women in the Commonwealth Public Service in the 1980s who had been forced to resign as permanent employees upon their marriage in the 1960s.

They resumed work as temporary employees but never caught up to the career path progression of their peers. Today’s advances were made off the back of hard choices for women not that long ago.

HISTORY

The Qld Country Women’s Association was founded by Ruth Beatrice Fairfax in 1922 to improve the living conditions of women in regional areas, helping to provide community, education, health services, entertainment, and a sense of empowerment.

The Eumundi branch of the QCWA began in 1927 largely thanks to the efforts of Mrs Candy, Irene Ball and Eleanor Trundle. At first, meetings were held in the School of Arts Hall where membership grew to over 50 ladies. Their fundraising efforts were very impressive and they decided to build a Eumundi CWA “rest room”.

Eumundi Museum: Convict tokens Eumundi CWA Hall c1929 Railway donated a small portion of land next to the train station.

The “rest room” was designed by J Lamb and built

by A Caplick at a cost of £205. The savings of the branch were just £30 short of this figure. At the official opening in October 1929 the attending crowd donated a further £11 towards the rooms.

The CWA have contributed so much to Eumundi since then and continue to do so today.

Joe Hextall – Curator Eumundi Museum

Eumundi Museum is delighted to present a touring exhibition, on loan from the National Museum of Australia, about the love tokens that many convicts left behind before they were shipped off to the other side of the world.

There are 40 tokens on display with an accompanying touch screen presentation that provide information about the tokens, their makers and the convict system that played a large role in creating modern Australia.

Entry is free and the exhibition is open until 8 January 2025.

HEALTH

Stressed, anxious or have chronic pain?

There seems to be – from my experience – an increase in people struggling with stress and anxiety. Everyone will have their own story as to why, however living in a world that values busyness and pushing boundaries to achieve more, accompanied by a high proportion of negative bias stories in the media, this struggle is not entirely surprising.

30

Your nervous system controls a vast number of functions in your body. These range from those that are conscious, such as sight, hearing and movement, through to vital unconscious functions – breathing, hormone regulation and digestion. Your nervous system also bears the brunt of stressors, which is what it was designed for – to keep you safe.

The issue is when your nervous system gets caught in a “fight, flight or freeze” state and does not come back into “rest and digest” once the perceived threat is over. In this heightened state your nervous system has less resources to control the functions of your body that occur when your nervous system is relaxed, such as digestion, hormone regulation and quality sleep. This is a key reason why there are increased dietary issues, lower fertility rates and autoimmune disease in our population.

Through this busyness we become disconnected from listening to our bodies. You might think, “That pain in my neck will go away in a couple of days. I don’t have time to do anything about it. I have all these things I must get done.” Your

The key is interoception – a process of connecting with your body and being aware of what you are feeling. There are many ways to do this, from hands-on therapy like craniosacral therapy, massage therapy, or yoga, breath work, Qi Gong, nervous system modifying exercises, dancing and gentle exercise. I urge you to take the time and find what works for your nervous system to help it come back to its agile selfregulating state.

Amanda Fincham body compensates for the dysfunction which is causing the pain or discomfort and the compensation spiral continues. Once you reach your 50s, 60s or 70s you assume the pain is ‘just part of ageing’.

The great news is that in most cases you can do something to help your nervous system become agile, keeping you safe when it genuinely needs to, and then settling back down and efficiently performing its other vital functions when you are safe.

If you walk or ride near nests, move quickly but don’t run; walk-in groups or avoid the area if you can; wear a wide-brimmed hat or carry an umbrella; hop off your bike and walk. Be kind to the birds and leave the nests alone – they have a long memory –and this will help reduce future defensive behaviour. See Council's website for more.

Meet Marie Robins: A remarkable life Marie Robins has been a part of Eumundi for 43 years and is an active member of the Rotary Club of Eumundi. Her life has been full of variety and adventure. At a recent Rotary meeting we were privileged to hear some of her life story.

This is an abridged version of Marie’s story …

I never thought much about what I was going to do when I grew up, until one day I saw a fellow typing on an ancient typewriter. I was mesmerised and instantly knew I wanted to be a typist. At 16yo I joined the Bank of NSW as a shorthand-typist where I worked for 5 years before marrying a “bank Johnny” in 1963. We had 3 children and became part of the floating population, moving between Brisbane, Boonah, Oakey, Cairns, Biloela, Mackay, Noosa, Cairns and Kingaroy. For 10 years I was a stay-at-home mum which I loved – playing lots of tennis, squash, morning teas and outings with other bank wives and kids.

In Biloela I was ready to look for a job. I became a typist for a solicitor. There were no electric typewriters in those days, making it a mammoth task to type long documents without a mistake.

My job lasted 3 years until our next transfer.

My wage was $3/hour and I always finished at 3pm to be home for the kids. During that time I became a Justice of the Peace.

In Mackay I then worked for the Education Department in Special Education as a teacher aide.

Next was Noosa. I worked for solicitors and learnt how to use an electric typewriter. It was heaven!

Computers had also just come on the scene. I became interested in body corporates and we

bought our block of land in Eumundi.

After 5 years in Noosa, it was back to Cairns where I again worked for solicitors until I realised no one in Cairns knew anything about body corporates. After introducing myself to solicitors and developers, Cairns Body Corporate Services was born. My first office was our bedroom.

It was ‘boom-time’ in Cairns due to many units being built. Six months later, I took a business partner and we moved into an office in town.

When my husband was transferred again, my partner bought the business. Next was Kingaroy where I sold real estate for 5 years.

My husband retired in 1990 and we acquired a gold mine between Georgetown and Forsayth. I spent a lot of time in Brisbane and only drove up every couple of months to help.

In Brisbane I worked for a body corporate until I set up my own business at Yeronga with a partner. In December our real estate agent rang to say our tenants in our Eumundi home had shot through, leaving behind all their cooking equipment. So began our next venture, Sunrise Cookies …

Our speciality was very large biscuits with nuts and chocolate chips on top. They were the first of the large cookies you buy today. We also made gingerbread loaves and ginger biscuits for the Buderim Ginger Factory.

Early Monday morning we would pack the car and drive to Brisbane delivering boxes of cookies to hospitals, universities and speciality cafes. Once a month I delivered to Toowoomba and then down the range to Brisbane. After my deliveries I worked at the body corporate in

Yeronga until Wednesday before driving home to Eumundi.

The 3 days I was away, my husband cooked for the Ginger Factory. On my return we would bake all the biscuits needed for the following week’s delivery. We cooked over 70,000 biscuits.

We sold both the cookie and body corporate business to relocate to Mataranka in the Northern Territory for 6 months to help look after our newly born triplet grandchildren plus their older sister. We stayed for 12 years.

In December 1995, we moved near Katherine Gorge. I worked at the Nitmiluk Visitors Centre for the next 5 years, while looking after our beautiful grandchildren.

During this time, we built 2 coach camps and leased them out to a tour company catering for overseas backpackers.

In 2002, we acquired Heli-Muster – an aviation helicopter business based on Victoria River Downs Station. In May 2006, we sold it and returned home to Eumundi.

When I look back on my life, it amazes me how things turned out. My proudest achievements are my family and writing a book called The Augathella Story: Through the Years about the history of Augathella.

By the way, I still love typing! Marie Robins
