Pool returns with a splash

THE Pines Pool opens for the summer season this week.

The Pines Forest Aquatic Centre opens on 1 November.

Peninsula Leisure CEO Kath Thom said that the organisation was looking forward to welcoming visitors back to the facility. “The pool is looking great for another big outdoor pool season,” she said. “Once again, the seasonal pools will be a great place to cool down and have some fun. There will be lots happening over summer from free community events, learn to swim opportunities and school swimming carnivals. Don’t forget to get your season pass for unlimited access to this award winning facility.”

Frankston Council has been advocat ing for money from other levels of government to upgrade the pool, but has not yet been successful in getting the project funded.

The pool will close again in March 2023.

Public booted after council meeting mayhem

Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au

THE public gallery was thrown out of a tense Frankston Council meeting last week.

Tensions have been running high at council’s recent public meetings. A marathon four-hour meeting last week was stopped on multiple occasions as debate broke down into arguments, and the public gallery made repeated interjections. By the end of the meet

ing the public had been removed and the mayor had threatened to boot one councillor from the room.

The public gallery was kicked out during debate on the future of the trad ers at the base of Olivers Hill. One member of the gallery shouted that councillors were “disgusting” as the mayor closed the meeting. Interrup tions from members of the public at council meetings have increased in frequency throughout the year.

Frankston mayor Nathan Conroy told The Times that the removal of the gallery was justified. “This week is the

first time this council has unfortunate ly needed to ask the public gallery to leave a meeting. While not my prefer ence, this will be the course of action if council deliberations and debate are af fected by the public attendance. How ever, I do encourage residents to attend meetings and respectfully watch our democratic process in action,” he said. “There is of course opportunity for the community to be part of the conversa tion. Residents are able to make sub missions to speak on the items being considered by council and in turn we are able to consider their views.

“It is important all council debate is done respectfully in a fair and balanced manner, and in turn the same is said for community participation. It is my role to be impartial and ensure councillors have the opportunity to be heard. To do this I need to manage interjections from the public gallery and ensure this does not affect or stall council delib erations.”

After being repeatedly called out on points of order throughout the 24 October meeting, councillor Steven Hughes was nearly ejected from the room. Conroy issued him a final warn

ing towards the end of the meeting, telling him he would be sent outside for 15 minutes if he continued to mis behave.

Not for the first time, Steven Hughes compared a law proposed by Frankston Council at its last meeting to those found in North Korea. After a failed attempt to cut him off from speaking on a different matter he was allowed to continue, which he sensationally likened to being “reprieved from death row”.

Olivers Hill license backlash sparks review

Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au

FRANKSTON Council will review its internal processes following community backlash to its plans to boot two mobile vendors from their site at Olivers Hill.

Council has reversed its decision to move on Little Olly’s cafe van and Cripps Fish and Chips from their current site at the base of Olivers Hill. The license to trade handed to the two operators was coming up, and after the conclusion of an expression of interest process council elected to replace them with a mobile Mercettas restaurant. The three businesses have now agreed to share the site for 12 months.

At their last public meeting, councillors Liam Hughes and Steven Hughes proposed that the existing vendors should receive first preference to continue trading for an additional two years if they choose to do so. This proposal was voted down.

Steven Hughes said “when a community builds up a relationship with a vendor, every 12 months they’re going to lose that relationship. They’re going to be torn out. It doesn’t make sense to be continually taking away vendors.”

Discussion on the first preference extension proposal broke down when deputy mayor Su zette Tayler attempted to finish debate before Steven Hughes had delivered a speech and put the proposal to a vote. Members of the public be gan shouting abuse at councillors, and the mayor temporarily stopped the meeting to remove the gallery.

After a short break Steven Hughes was permit ted to continue speaking on the matter. He said “what we’ve seen with this Little Olly’s decision is a bureaucracy that’s not listening to the com munity that it’s supposed to serve. Not once dur ing this process was the community ever consult ed on what business we wanted at Olivers Hill.

Instead we have bureaucrats telling us what food choices are best for us, and we had to accept their decision,” he said.

Council CEO Phil Cantillon told the meet ing that Hughes’ language had caused offence. Hughes had called the Little Ollys decision “ter rible” and “woeful”. Cantillon said has was “sat isfied the organisation has gone through a fair ex pression of interest process and I think the choice of words may give the wrong impression in the community as to the integrity of the process that we have gone through, and the trust we are hop ing to build with the operators and the commu nity.”

The decision to replace the current vendors with Mercettas was made by council officers out side of the council chamber. Frankston Council has agreed to assess its review process for “Do it Outdoors” applications such as those made for the use of Olivers Hill. The review will include the way council consults with the community on those decisions, and will consider other sites which may be used for trading in the future.

The mayor Nathan Conroy said he was “con fident” about the proposed review, which is set to include “the length of leases, the community element, the social element, and maybe the right of reply.”

“[The review] will include community consul tation as well, and then it will come back to us. Any decision that we make will come back into this chamber for any future licenses.”

Little Ollys and Cripps have been handed li censes to trade at the base of Olivers Hill through until December 2023. They will be joined by Mercettas this December.

‘Strong views’ influence intense debate - mayor

Continued from page 1

The Times asked mayor Nathan Conroy if Frankston Council has a culture issue. He said “at times, strong views are expressed. This has been the case recently where we have debated a number of issues that have been of great interest to councillors and the community. This is part of the passion we have for the roles we carry out – we each look to how we can best serve our community.”

“I believe the community is seeing the results of the work this council is doing – only recently the community satisfaction survey showed satisfac tion with community decisions, and

overall governance and leadership both reached 71 per cent, an increase of over 10 per cent, while consulta tion and engagement also jumped that same percentage to reach 69 per cent,” Conroy said.

Steven Hughes is currently facing the possibility of a 12 month suspen sion from council. Seven of his fellow councillors have agreed to apply for a councillor conduct panel, alleging he has engaged in serious misconduct. Since being elected in 2020 he has been the subject of two arbitration ap plications, and has served a one month suspension.

Earlier this year Hughes applied for

a councillor conduct panel alleg ing former mayor Kris Bolam had bullied him. The allegations were dismissed, and the process ended up costing ratepayers more than $30,000. In 2021, arbitration initiated when Hughes made a Facebook post saying council’s social media policy would “make Kim Jon-Un nod in approval” cost ratepayers more than $11,000. Ratepayers have bore the cost of poor behaviour at council before. The previous Frankston Council had its conduct judged by a state govern ment-appointed monitor for more than a year. The monitor’s stint at council cost ratepayers more than $100,000.

Rosebud business recognised in awards

AFTER-CARE Australia’s ethos is “compassion, kindness and empathy” and the Rosebud-based business has been recognised for achieving these goals.

The family-run service has been awarded the “Business Citizen of the Year Awards” in the South-East Busi ness Awards 2022.

After-Care Australia has successfully operated on the Mornington Peninsula and Melbourne’s South East since 1999.

The company began when founders Shane and Maxine Kelly opted for a career change and noticed a need in the market for in-home care providers.

With family, people and relation ships fundamentally important to them, it seemed a natural progression for them to return to study and become

certified careers.

Once qualified, they gained valuable experience working in aged care facili ties and for various agencies.

Shane and Maxine began After-Care Australia from a spare room in their Rye home.

Now, over 20 years later, the com pany provides in-home, communitybased support for more than 600 cli ents. Its 90 staff provide approximately 8500 hours of support a month.

After-Care’s mission is clear and concise. They are passionate about providing quality in home care with a strong client focus.

They have earned a solid reputation built on honesty, trust, reliability and respect.

They pride themselves with putting the client first with a focus on well-

being, social inclusion and community belongings.

Culturally appropriate services are delivered for LGBTI, residents with disabilities and Indigenous community members.

Manager Adam Kelly celebrated the Business Citizen of the Year award with his parents Shane and Maxine.

“Our aim was and still is to allow people to live at home as indepen dently and as long as possible,” said Mr Kelly.

“All team members are paid above award wages, have access to EAP, mental health first aid and are trained at a minimum in Cert 3 Individualised Support.

“Our team are trained over and above minimum requirements and their number one criteria for employ

ment is compassion, kindness and empathy”.

After-Care Australia are also at the cutting edge of technology in the field with recent innovations allowing staff to have immediate and real-time access to clients’ files to ensure all in formation is “up to date” and the client is receiving the optimal care.

Over the years, After-Care has been recognised for its contribution to the local community by being awarded multiple business services and busi ness excellence awards.

They also proudly support many local sporting and community groups through valuable sponsorship.

After-Care Australia believe in full transparency. When comparing in home care providers, it should be easy to understand all the packages

available, and identify all the costs involved, without any nasty surprises down the track.

After-Care clearly outline all associ ated costs and take the time to discuss every option to determine the most suitable arrangement for you or your loved one.

And best of all, when dealing with After-Care Australia, you are dealing with a local business.

Not only is that great for the local economy, but you don’t have the con cerns of dealing with a big, impersonal call centre based elsewhere.

Being a smaller, local provider means After-Care Australia can build genuine relationships with their clients and staff and gives them the flexibility to respond to any changing conditions, ensuring optimised care.

Teenager launches debut album

A LANGWARRIN teenager has released her first album at just 16 years of age.

Kaiyah Mercedes’ debut album Hindsight launched this week. The young singer began writing the album in 2020, drawing from her personal experiences in life.

“When writing this album, I found

a unique sense of calm after so much hurt. I was able to look back and understand all that I’d been through by writing about my experiences and heal ing through the words. I wrote these songs for myself, a kind of therapy, but I hope other people can listen to my songs and relate, and learn to heal too,” she said.

Mercedes’ music has been played on the radio in Australia, Italy, the USA, the UK, Canada, and South Africa. Hindsight released on 31 October.

Gallery residency for First Nations artists

A RESIDENCY program for First Nations artists is being established at Langwarrin’s McClelland Gallery.

The four artists selected to take part in the Bunurong Fieldwork Residency will work on concepts for a public artwork. Successful applicants will receive $17600, plus $2000 in travel expenses, to undertake a maximum three-month residency in the McClel land studio cottage between 2023 and 2024.

McClelland Gallery director Lisa Byrne hopes that the program will address the “scarcity of First Nations cultural markers on the Mornington Peninsula.”

“While the number of public art commissions available to Australian artists increases every year, only a small number of First Nations artists are given the opportunity to realise these. The residency program intends to provide four First Nations artists or artist teams with the time, space, skills and connections required to develop and realise public artworks. It aims to upskill the four artists/artist teams to work in the field of public art practice, which will embed First Nations prac tice within the field of Australian and international public art,” Byrne said.

“Each artist-in-residence will engage with the Bunurong community via McClelland’s First Nations education and public programs manager and the registered Aboriginal party, the Bunurong Land Council Aboriginal Corporation, in the development of a

public artwork that will lead to broader community understanding of the cul ture and history of the Bunurong peo ple. It is envisioned that one of the four major public artwork proposals will be realised by 2025 with support from public and private sectors to a value of up to $1.5 million, to be fabricated and installed at a culturally significant site on the Peninsula Link freeway to mark and celebrate the Bunurong People’s local presence, culture and heritage.”

The program is supported the Bunu rong Land Council Aboriginal Corpo ration and Service Stream. McClelland will also pay cultural engagement fees to the Bunurong Aboriginal Land Council Aboriginal Corporation.

Expressions of interest close at 5pm on 16 November 2022. For more information visit artshub.com.au/ opportunity/the-bunurong-fieldworkresidency-program-at-mcclelland.

Patterson River pollution prevention investigated

Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au

NEW solutions are needed to reduce the amount of litter in Patterson River, a Kingston councillor says.

Kingston Council first voted to look into the possibility of a heavy-duty litter trap upstream on Patterson River in late 2020. Nearly two years on, the litter trap has not been imple mented.

Kingston councillor Cameron Howe says that investment into litter reduction in the river is badly needed. “We need to turn the tide on plas tic pollution with a replacement heavy-duty litter trap, which is an essential step to maintaining healthy waterways, collecting plastics upstream on Patterson River before they hit our popular bay beaches,” he said. “Images of enough plastic bottles to fill a backyard pool collecting on the river’s shoreline, have become the ire of the community and demonstrate that it is irresponsi ble not to fund this overdue solution”.

Current litter collection methods in Patterson

River include gross pollutant traps, grills, and grates.

Patterson River is owned by Melbourne Water.

A spokesperson from Melbourne Water said the best way to address the pollution problem is to “prevent littering at the source”.

“The Patterson River is at the end of a very large catchment system, and as such receives stormwater – and all the litter carried by storm water – from all areas connected to the Dande nong Creek and Eumemmerring Creek and their tributaries. The area covers significant propor tions of the cities of Casey, Greater Dandenong and Kingston, as well as Knox Council. Up wards of 90 per cent of the litter found at the end of stormwater systems like this one come from the streets of our suburbs,” the spokesperson said. “We are investigating the potential benefit of a litter trap within the broader Patterson River, Dandenong Creek and Eumemmerring Creek system as part of a range of actions by the Lower Dandenong Creek Litter Collaboration that ad dress better management of litter at source.”

The Lower Dandenong Litter Collaboration is a partnership between Melbourne Water, King

ston, Greater Dandenong, and Casey councils, the EPA, and Parks Victoria. Melbourne Water says that through that initiative, an action plan is being developed “which does identify several priority asset and non-asset based interventions, recognising that litter management is a shared responsibility – including with the community – and working on the principle that preventing litter entering the stormwater system is more effective than cleaning up at the end of the system.”

Kingston Council wrote to Carrum MP Sonya Kilkenny in June last year asking for the state government to stump up the cash for a new litter trap. Kilkenny did not respond to questions from The Times asking her thoughts on the proposal.

In April this year, Kingston Council once again called for state government investment into Patterson River (“Funding wanted to fix urgent issues at Patterson River” The Times 20/4/2022).

In May the state government committed to spending $3 million on upgrades at the upper precinct, which encompasses the National Water Sports Centre in Bangholme, and $3.5 million on the Launching Way area.

Consultation ‘essential’ before building new bridges

Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au

CONSULTATION with the community is “vi tal” to completing the planned level crossing removals along the Frankston line, Kingston Council says.

Earlier this month, the state government an nounced that it would remove all level cross ings on the Frankston line by 2029. Rail over road will be built to replace the level crossings at Wickham Road and Highett Road in Highett, McDonald Street in Mordialloc, and Station Street in Aspendale.

Previous level crossing removals along the Frankston line have drawn backlash from the community, especially in Parkdale. The state government’s plans to build sky rail at Parkdale were opposed by 76 per cent of residents polled

by Kingston Council in a survey.

Before work begins to remove the remaining level crossings, Kingston Council has called on the LXRP to comprehensively consult with the community. The mayor Steve Staikos said “each level crossing project is unique, and it is essen tial that the community is actively consulted, and that local knowledge and expertise informs the planning process. We are keen to receive further information from the Level Crossing Removal Project on their plans and how they aim to engage with the community, and with the council.”

The LXRP says that consultation will take place in 2023. A spokesperson for the LXRP said “community consultation is key to devel oping all level crossing removal projects. Like we have already done with communities on the Frankston line, we’ll engage with locals during the planning and construction phases. Commu

nity consultation will begin next year.

“We look forward to working with communi ties to make the Frankston line level crossing free, ensuring the busiest sections of the rail net work are safer and less congested and delivering great outcomes for locals.”

Kingston councillor Jenna Davey-Burns says that consultation with Kingston residents im proved the suburban rail loop project, and that the feedback gathered for this project should be seri ously considered too. “We want to ensure these projects are a catalyst for enhancing our muchloved shopping strips, lead to public safety im provements, develop vibrant community spaces, and importantly, improved pedestrian and cycling links,” she said. “Kingston is an active and en gaged community with a lot of expertise to offer to the planning process and we saw how the com munity positively impacted elements of plans for the Suburban Rail Loop.”

Sex act on bus

A MAN who allegedly committed a sex act on a bus in front of a teenage girl is wanted by police.

The alleged incident took place on a bus travelling between Greenbor ough and Frankston, 9.35am on 22 September. Both the victim and of fender boarded the bus at Greenbor ough Station, and the incident took place around Lower Plenty.

We really want to hear from you. Consultation with the community forms an important part of what we do. Through Engage Frankston, we’ve seen just how pas sionate and proud the community can be about Frankston City.”

TOP PICKS OF THE WEEK

SATURDAY JUMANJI: WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE

NINE, 7.30pm

More than 20 years after the hit original starring Robin Williams and Kirsten Dunst, it’s debatable as to whether a Jumanji sequel was necessary. Starring Dwayne Johnson, Karen Gillan (Doctor Who, left), Jack Black and popstar Nick Jonas, this spirited re-imagining of the tale is full of laughs and goofy entertainment. This time, four teenagers are trapped in a ’90s video game, complete with hilarious and awkward new bodies.

FRIDAY

THE GRAHAM NORTON SHOW

TEN, 8.30pm

The past two years of Graham Norton’s (right) show via Zoom, and then with his guests sitting forlornly on chairs spaced 1.5m apart, it just wasn’t the same … It was honestly a depressing sight. Now, as season 30 kicks into gear it feels celebratory: the big red couch is back! It’s a joy to watch the diverse guests rub shoulders again. Tonight, Kate Hudson chats about her new whodunnit Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery

SATURDAY DOC MARTIN

ABC TV, 7.30pm

This final season picks up a year after season nine, with Dr Martin Ellingham (Clunes) now a father of two, struggling to find his place in the world. Flush with comedic situations, quirky characters and, of course, one of the most picturesque seaside locations in Britain, there’s one question begging: will the cantankerous old doctor return to his medical roots?

SUNDAY THE BLOCK

NINE, 7pm

The final moment the teams have all been doggedly working towards is here: auction night. Will the idyllic acreage blocks and generous homes weather the storm of the economic downturn and command huge profits? Fans have seen it all during The Block’s 20-year history, with some contestants earning enormous profits and others barely a piggy bank for their toils. After a dramatic season, host Scott Cam is likely to be as nervous as the viewers. Will we see jubilation or turmoil … or

Rate your hearing at Nepean Hearing

FOUR million Australians have a hearing loss. Nepean Hearing is offering free hearing tests and rating your Hearing for Your Age (for the over 40’s).

The number of Australians who are hearing impaired is increasing because of • the ageing population - we are living longer • excessive noise - in the workplace and high level music Hearing loss is often described as the ‘invisible disability. People often wait for 5-10 years before they seek help. Hearing loss may also be a contributing factor in the speed of onset of dementia. The degree of loss is also correlated to the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. It is important to know about your hearing. Many people ignore the signs of hearing loss, which include; turning the TV or stereo up so loud that others complain, frequently needing to ask others to repeat themselves, and not being able to hear properly on the telephone. Constant ringing is also another warning sign of hearing loss.

As technology advances, many people with hearing loss benefit from hearing aids. These innovations have made a positive difference in the way they can communicate and enjoy their lives. Nepean Hearing is an independently owned clinic and the audiologists are University of Melbourne trained.

Take advantage of the free hearing test offered by Nepean Hearing to ensure your hearing is at its optimum. For hearing screenings our main office is located at 30 Foot Street, Frankston, phone: 9783 7520 We are also located at: 171 Camms Road, Cranbourne, phone: 5966 1117, and Hastings Community Health 185 High Street Hastings, phone: 97837520.

FROM THE SKIES TO SEAS, FRONT BEACH, BACK BEACH TAKES THE PENINSULA

THIS November, Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery together with Deakin University’s Public Art Commission will present Front Beach, Back Beach (FBBB) at fifteen different locations across the Peninsula.

Designed as a road-trip for art lovers, FBBB will feature the work of eighteen local and national artists and collectives who have been invited to respond to key sites, stories and communities which have shaped this unique region of Victoria.

Flinders-based artist Vera Möller’s 'Submarine Gardens' is on display at Flinders Pier from November 4th to November 27th.

So much that makes the submarine ecosystem so rich at Flinders Pier remains hidden for most visitors. With Möller’s ‘Submarine Gardens’, she hopes to make the invisible visible.

"By commissioning two local divers, Myra Kelly and Paolo Bottari, to take underwater photos of the area under the pier, I wanted make visible to visitors the beauty and complexity of the ‘Submarine Gardens’ that exist directly under the pier."

After training as a biologist in Germany, Möller migrated to Australia in 1986. She later completed a Bachelor of Fine Art at the Victorian College of the Arts and a PhD at Monash University. Her work has been exhibited in the USA, Japan, Finland, France, Germany and the UK, as well as throughout Australia.

She spent two decades working in the fields of Microbiology and Limnology (Freshwater Ecology) before turning her attention to art where she discovers and creates new ecosystems.

Her previous projects focused on the marine environments of the Great Barrier Reef and here along the Victorian coast, in Port Phillip and Western Port Bays.

Now, she's looking to her own backyard at Flinders.

"I hope my project attracts attention to some of the special underwater spaces and creatures that can be found not just around Flinders but also countless other areas along the coast of the Mornington Peninsula. This larger area continues to be of great significance to the Bunurong people."

Working across diverse mediums, Möller creates art that imagines a meeting between real and other-worldly ecosystems.

"On the wooden pylons, under the waterline at end of the pier, grow wonderfully complex and very beautiful ‘Submarine Garden’, as I refer to them. These are made up of a dizzying array of seaweed, sponges, algae and many other interesting species."

The fictional environments she creates in response are home to hybrid zoological and botanical specimens, and borrows from familiar and natural terrains to make totally new worlds.

"My past training as a biologist has contributed to my ever increasing fascination with this coast and its extraordinary beauty and richness."

Artist talks with the divers and photographers are happening on Sunday 6th November and Sunday 13th November. For those more adventurous, BYO snorkel and see the underwater gardens for yourself.

Fruitgrowers urged to join an association

by Cameron McCullough

IN a reply to Mr. Prendergast, leader, of the Opposition, Mr. MacPherson, State Treasurer, stated that he had been approached by representatives from a certain fruitgrowing district supporting over 2000 growers.

Their request was for monetary assistance to help them organise the sale of their produce.

He had made enquiries and found that out of the 2000 growers only 150 of these were willing to help themselves by joining and support ing the growers’ organisation.

The district was not the Penin sula, but growers in this part of the country could well take the lesson to heart.

There are three Associations –Somerville, Tyabb and Red Hill– but the membership of these far from includes all growers in the district.

Then, at the important fruit centre of Hastings there is no Association.

One prominent grower there was even heard to remark that he would not join the Association to help keep some fellows in good billets in town. Perhaps the reference was to the secretary of the Central Association, who receives a princely salary of £100 per annum.

The Association, however, helps hammering away with every little concession is hard fought for and thoroughly appreciated by its mem bers.

Enjoyed also by non-members and such communities as Hastings. Is it a fair thing that they should sit back while the faithful few do all the

battling?

And with every grower a member of the organisation not only would the battling be reduced but the ben efits to the industry and each grower would increase in leaps and bounds.

When the man who grows the apple ponders over the fact that he keeps alive half a dozen industriescase, spray material and implement manufacturers, commission agents, retailers–and considers that each and every one of these is thoroughly organised, even to the extent of hav ing the power to crush out units who refuse to support them, surely, then, he will admit that it is time he did something to protect himself, and the only way he can do so is by identify ing himself with his organisation and supporting it in every way possible.

And now, especially, in view of the campaign which in being undertaken by different departments of the Government and the efforts being put forward by those growers who are organised, should he consider it a bounden duty to link up and do his bit of pushing.

THE fast electric train service to Frankston has given an impetus to the seaside resorts along this popular line, and among the most favored is the delightful district of Seaford, with its lovely sandy beach, shady ti tree walks, etc.

Mr. C. Hunter, the past President of the Seaford Progress Association having left the district, the whole of his properties, comprising 2 compact houses, 5 rooms each, bungalow, sleep-out, all in good order will be

offered for sale.

Land, 50 x 139 each; also boathouse and boat, and 2 vacant lots in Mackenzie Street.

The boat is 14 ft., centreplate, car bon built, sails and all gear, is well known and a pleasure to own.

The boat-shed is 20 x .12 and in splendid condition.

The terms are easy and the proper ties are for positive sale.

A QUIET but pretty wedding took place at the Methodist Church, Church Street, Richmond, on Sat urday, October 28, when Miss T. L. Stott, youngest daughter of Mrs. and the late Mr. H. T. Stott, of “Lucka,” Baxter, was married to Mr. C. W. Banfield (late A.I.F.), of Marybor ough.

The bride who was given away by her brother, Mr. Val. Stott, wore a very dainty dress of grey crepe de chene, trimmed with henna, and hat to match.

Her bridesmaid, Miss V. Banfield, sister of the bridegroom, wore a dress of cream crepe de chene, with hat to match.

The bridegroom was supported by Mr. D. Anderson, as best man.

After the ceremony the guests were entertained at a wedding tea by Mrs. Anderson, aunt of the bridegroom. Mr. and Mrs. Banfield left by motor for Ballarat, where they will reside.

SEVERAL deserving cases for char ity have recently been brought under notice in Frankston.

Although assistance has been forthcoming from individual sources no organised effort has been made to render adequate relief.

With the idea of giving a start to what may later develop into a more comprehensive effort, Mr. Ray Cox all is advertising a benefit dance to take place in the Frankston Hall on Thursday night, 16th inst.

Music will be supplied by the Tasma orchestra and a good night’s amusement is assured.

The proceeds will be handed to Mr. E. Barrett for distribution.

THE Church of England Girls’ Club last Thursday night gave a very fair display of physical culture and gym nastics in the Hastings Hall.

Under the able training of Miss D. Young of Tyabb, the girls have made splendid progress since the last dis play given some twelve months ago.

During the evening Miss Young was presented with a handsome xy lonite brush and comb and mirror.

Rev. Alfred Craig, the Vicar, made the presentation on behalf of the club.

Mr. Day, from Melbourne, gave a very clever series of conjuring tricks, thoroughly mystifying his audience and certainly amusing them.

The proceeds, which are most gratifying, are to help to endow, in the name of the club, a cot in the Austin Hospital.

***

A START was made this week with

the erection of the new Picture The atre in Playne Street, Frankston.

A small army of workmen is employed taking out excavations for the foundations–a task rendered very difficult owing to the wet nature of the land.

The building which is to be con structed of brick, has already been described in the columns of “The Standard.”

***

A SWEEPSTAKE will be shot off to morrow (Saturday) afternoon by the members of the Frankston Gun Club on the grounds at Mr. O’Grady’s.

***

STARTING from next Sunday night, the Methodist Church and the Church of England will commence their services at 7.30 instead, of 7 p.m. as hitherto.

The same applies to the Presbyte rian service at Somerville.

***

ARRANGEMENTS in connection with the formation of a Brass Band at Carrum are proceeding satisfacto rily, and it is probable that next week will see the movement an accom plished fact.

At a meeting of those interested held on Wednesday evening last, a big Step forward was taken, and a preliminary practice arranged for.

All intending members are invited to communicate with Mr. E. Hawk ing, who is anxious to enrol volun teers without further loss of time.

FOR the third week running, rain threatened to ruin a weekend of cricket on the Mornington Peninsula. Despite the bad weather, players re ported to their grounds on Saturday to play at least a few overs.

PROVINCIAL

AN excellent bowling performance secured Red Hill the victory last weekend.

Red Hill batted first on their home deck against Old Peninsula. They set their opponents a target of 141 to score to win the match.

A middle order knock of 32 from Brent Martin proved vital. He dug in after a top order collapse which saw Red Hill lose 5/27.

Old Peninsula struggled to make an impact with the bat. They ended up bowled out for just 99.

Martin impressed with the ball as well. He posted his side’s best figures of the match - 2/11 off seven overs.

All other matches in the Provincial division ended up abandoned due to bad weather on Sat urday.

PENINSULA

A STUNNING knock from opener Kierran Voe lkl was the difference between Dromana and Heatherhill last Saturday.

Voelkl was awesome at the crease. He scored an unbeaten 98 for Dromana, helping his side reach a big total of 197.

Arthur McKenzie also contributed for Droma na. He scored 45 before being run out.

Heatherhill’s run chase got off to a disastrous start. They were struggling badly at 5/37 before the middle order steadied things.

Despite a good recovery Heatherhill ended up all out for 173, 25 short of victory. Dale Irving's 3/12 off five overs gave Heatherhill headaches.

The match was the only one completed last weekend in the Peninsula division.

DISTRICT

A CENTURY from opener Devlin Webb wasn’t enough for Hastings to get the win against Rose bud on Saturday.

Rosebud was sent in to bat first at Olympic Park, and they proved up to the task. The home side smashed 216 runs, with almost all of their batters making handy contributions.

Liam Collett top scored for Rosebud with a well-taken half century.

Hastings had a lot to do to catch up to their op ponents. Webb was the standout, smashing 109 runs from 121 balls. Unfortunately for him he ran out of partners.

Hastings' middle order collapsed. They were dismissed for scores of 6, 6, 3, 0, 2, and 3 re spectively.

Webb’s efforts were valiant but they weren’t

enough. Hastings ended up all out for 176.

At Kananook Reserve, Carrum was dismantled by Carrum Downs. Carrum was dismissed for just 62, falling 96 runs short of the win.

Crib Point and Main Ridge had their match abandoned. Seaford and Delacombe Park were able to play plenty of cricket, but the match was eventually called a draw.

SUB DISTRICT

Red Hill grab a win in rain-interrupted round Ryder signs with Panthers

TYABB snatched a narrow two-wicket win over Rye on Saturday.

Rye chose to bat first, and suffered some diffi culties at the crease. None of their batsmen were able to make big scores, and they ended up fin ishing their innings at 9/120 after a reduced 35 overs.

Tyabb proved up to the challenge thanks to opener Nick Taranto. He scored 52 runs, which proved to be a match winning effort.

Tyabb battled with some tough weather condi tions late, losing 5/11 before finally hitting the winning runs. They survived the late scare with two wickets in hand.

Balnarring joined the winner’s list on Saturday with a comprehensive victory over Tootgarook. Mt Martha also impressed with a dominant win over Pearcedale.

Skye were able to chase down a total of 132 to beat Frankston YCW, and Boneo chased down 105 to beat Ballam Park.

MPNFL

DEVON Meadows has secured the signature of ex-AFL ruckman Paddy Ryder.

The MPNFL club made the huge announce ment last week. 34-year-old Ryder retired from the AFL this year after 281 games across three clubs.

Ryder started his career at Essendon before moving to Port Adelaide in the wake of the

club’s drug scandal. He played his final sea sons at St Kilda, and made a big impact.

Ryder was named in the AFL’s All-Austral ian squad in 2017. He was the ANZAC Day medalist in 2009.

In a statement on Facebook, the club said it was “thrilled” to have signed Ryder. “We welcome Paddy and his three children Liliana, Harlan, and Sage to the Panther family,” the club said.

Delaney, Strikers eye title tilt

SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie

A CRASH course in coping with senior football this year bodes well for Peninsula Strikers’ assault on the 2023 State 2 South-East champion ship.

That’s the belief of Strikers’ defen sive midfielder Calvin Delaney.

The 20-year-old (he turns 21 on 30 November) was part of a major squad makeover overseen by his father and senior coach Donn during last preseason and early signs drew derisive commentary from many onlookers.

“Of course we heard the criticism but it was way too harsh,” Calvin De laney said.

“Anyway we were too excited about the season and we didn’t care about the negativity.

“A lot of us were playing our first year of senior football so we just had to get used to it.

“We were being judged after liter ally our first game together so it didn’t make sense for people to be so mean.

“We just trained hard and we were able to shut out that noise.

“We liked each other and we wanted to show that we could play quick foot ball and we did.”

Quick yes. And skilful and effec tive. So much so that Strikers topped the table for much of the season only faltering in the back half of a stunning campaign.

“I don’t even know why that hap pened and we didn’t really figure it out to be honest.

“I don’t think we can blame it on injuries and I didn’t notice any differ ence in the way we were playing.

“It was just five or 10 minutes where we would lose it and that really was the difference.”

It definitely wasn’t a fitness issue.

Strength and conditioning coach Kosta Drakoulakos had seen to that and right now the senior squad is working with him in preparation for next season.

“We do a two-hour team session in his gym every Saturday morning then it’s up to the individual about (gym) sessions through the week – I try and do Mondays and Wednesdays.”

New players have been brought in –Campbell Steedman, Steve Elliott and Jamie Davidson from Mornington –and have seamlessly assimilated into the playing group.

“The new players are already in volved and you can tell we like them – it’s really good team bonding.”

Delaney is confident that the speed hump Strikers struck on the promo tion trail this season won’t be repeat

ed next season.

“I’m honestly really excited about next season,” he said.

“We can only improve as last season was our first together and we’re young so we’ll only get stronger physically and we’ll read the game better.

“We’ve already talked about going to the next league (State 1) and I don’t see why we can’t.

“I would love it if we won the league and that’s what we’re hoping to achieve.

“And there’s going to be more der bies next season (with Skye United and Frankston Pines in State 2).

“I’m really looking forward to those games.

“I love the tough games – it makes it so much better when you win them.”

In other news Lawton Park will again be the venue for the annual Steve Wallace Cup and Saturday 21 January has been pencilled in for the 2023 version of the event.

Steve Wallace was a Langwarrin

life-member and former club presi dent, committeeman, coach, player and Bayside League referee.

He died on 19 July 2011 at the age of 54.

This year’s Cup was hit by COV ID-19 and forced to change to one-off 90-minute games but will revert to its traditional two-group round-robin format with the top two teams in each group advancing to the semi-finals.

“I’m hoping to kick-off later in the afternoon and run a twilight session from 3pm to around 7pm,” tourna ment organiser Tanya Wallace said.

“I’m also keen to showcase a wom en’s NPL game featuring Southern United with a junior boys NPL game between Langwarrin and Mornington as a curtain raiser.”

Long-serving Southern United coach Emma Bracken is assisting Wallace in arranging the women’s game and Bayside United has been mentioned as a possible opponent.

So far Langwarrin, Mornington,

Seaford United is expected to make a decision about competing at a later date.

Meanwhile former Seaford Unit ed, Bentleigh Greens, Langwarrin and Frankston Pines coach Kevin

“Squizzy” Taylor is the new senior assistant at recently promoted NPL3 club Beaumaris.

Taylor resigned as Pines head coach in August and joined Baxter’s coach ing group over a fortnight ago.

“I’ll still work as a mentor to the coaches at Baxter because ‘Beauy’ is Mondays and Wednesdays,” Taylor said.

For Beaumaris senior coach Dave Gibson it’s a case of fourth time lucky.

“I know ‘Gibbo’ well – that’s why I went there,” Taylor added.

“The assistant he had last year

couldn’t recommit and ‘Gibbo’ asked if I was interested so I went and spoke and everything’s sorted.

“He’d approached me three times before but the circumstances were different.”

Taylor knows some of the current Beaumaris senior squad who came through the NPL junior system and he will talk to Gibson about possible recruiting targets.

“They’re very happy with the squad they’ve got so it’ll just be a matter of whether we can improve that squad.”

One player certain to be on the ‘Beauy’ radar is talented Fijian mid fielder Thomas Dunn who joined Frankston Pines last January but Tay lor was non-committal when ques tioned about his interest in signing the 19-year-old.

“We’ll just have to wait and see but I know Tommy is keen to play at a higher level,” he said.

Peninsula Strikers, Skye United, Frankston Pines, Baxter, Somerville Eagles, Mount Martha and Rosebud have signed up for January’s tourna ment.
