Earlier in the year when most of our normal lives were basically shut down I wondered what that would mean for all our important events throughout the year.

Being November, for me it means covering high school formals and graduations, then as November draws to a close all the Christmas events start to kick off.

Judging by the number of glamorous high school formal photos I have seen floating around Facebook recently and our five pages of Christmas News in this edition (pages 22-27), apparently I shouldn’t have worried about events

Sunshine Coast election wrap up

By Greg Brown All seats across Queensland have finally been formally declared by the Electoral Commission of Queensland, with the Australian Labor Party (ALP) able to form a majority government with 52 seats (up from 48).

The Liberal-National Party (LNP) won 34 seats (down from 38), Katter’s Australia Party three seats, Pauline Hanson’s One Nation Party one seat and the independent Sandy Bolton in Noosa held her seat.

Annastacia Palaszczuk has been returned as the Premier, while the LNP has had a leadership change with Deb Frecklington standing down and David Crisafulli taking the reins of leader of the opposition.

Prior to the recent election, of the seven Sunshine Coast electorates, six were held by the LNP (Ninderry, Nicklin, Maroochydore, Kawana, Caloundra and Glass House) with Noosa held by the independent Sandy Bolton. And just to the south, the seat of Pumicestone was also held by the LNP. However, the local political environment changed significantly after

Glasshouse Country & Maleny News

October 31, with the ALP capturing two Sunshine Coast seats from the LNP, plus Pumicestone.

In all the seats held by the LNP, except for Maroochydore, there were considerable swings away from the conservatives towards the ALP in the two-party preferred results.

Moving down the coast, the political landscape now looks like this: • Noosa – independent, Sandy Bolton • Ninderry – LNP, Dan Purdie • Nicklin – ALP, Robert Skelton • Glass House – LNP, Andrew Powell • Maroochydore – LNP, Fiona Simpson • Buderim – LNP, Brent Mickelberg • Kawana – LNP, Jarrod Bleijie • Caloundra – ALP, Jason Hunt • Pumicestone – ALP, Ali King Locally, Andrew Powell (LNP) held onto Glass House by a reduced margin from the ALP’s Brent Hampstead. In the end the two-party preferred figures were Andrew Powell 15,706 votes (51.58%) to Brent Hampstead 14,741 (48.42%). The margin is now only 1.58%, down from 3.4% after the 2017 election.

Member for Caloundra, Jason Hunt

Member for Glass House, Andrew Powell

Mr Powell suffered another blow when the shadow cabinet positions were announced by new leader David Crusifulli and he was overlooked for any position. In the previous opposition he was the shadow minister for State Development, Manufacturing, Infrastructure and Planning.

In Caloundra, the ALP’s Jason Hunt captured the most two-party preferred votes (17,040 or 52.51%) over Stuart Coward (LNP) with 15,409 votes (47.49%). This reverses a previous margin of 3.4% to the LNP and gives Mr Hunt a 2.51% margin, equating to a 5.91% swing towards the ALP. In one of the closest results across the state, the ALP candidate in Nicklin

(Robert Skelton) only won the seat by 84 votes (14,866 to Marty Hunt’s 14,782).

With plans progressing for significant (and costly) upgrades to the north coast railway line and the Bruce Highway, the political gradient from south the north will prove to be interesting.

Moving up the railway corridor, the electorates go … ALP (Pumicestone) – LNP (Glass House) – ALP (Caloundra) – ALP (Nicklin) – LNP (Ninderry) – independent (Noosa).

With funding split between the state and federal governments, it will be vital that a collaborative approach be adopted between all local members, regardless of political persuasion.

Maleny State High School formal After what was a very strange year for all students and parents, the year 12 students of Maleny High were happy to celebrate the end of their school days at the Events Centre at Caloundra on Wednesday night, November 18, during their last week of school.

Photos from Beerwah High and Glasshouse Christian College formals will be in our December 9 edition.

Clap out marks end of school Students and staff at the Glasshouse Christian College celebrated the final school day for 75 students from the three year 12 classes on Thursday, November 19. Having the graduating students clapped out of the ceremony provided a memorable and, in some cases, emotional ending to school life for the students. This year the formal was held on the following night at Sandstone Point Hotel at Bribie Island.

Photos from this event will appear in the December 9 edition of GC&M News.

Shebah rideshare available locally Did you know Shebah is Australia’s leading all-women rideshare service? It employs only women drivers and is committed to safely transporting women and families, allowing them to travel with confidence.

With transport options always a bit tricky around the hinterland, this niche service has been welcomed and is growing in popularity since launching three years ago.

Beerwah driver and regional leader for Shebah, Khylie Wood, said the app-based service is like having an “army of aunties” available to support women, with a range of transport options that always put the safety of riders and drivers first.

“Some of the ways we assist include school drop off and pickups, getting kids to after school sports or teenagers home from work, getting family members to medical appointments, and we can even get your pet to the vet,” Khylie said.

Shebah currently employs six local women based around Beerwah, Landsborough, Maleny and Mooloolah. However, the service is always looking for more drivers.

As well as the hinterland area, Khylie looks after the entire Sunshine Coast region and said many of their drivers were women aged over 40 looking for flexible and empowering income opportunities.

“All our women drivers have nationally aligned working-with-children blue cards and Shebah is the only rideshare service in the country authorised to carry unaccompanied minors,” Khylie said.

Kayleen Fleming, Kay Hearne, Liz Harris and Khylie Wood “Drivers can be booked with either single or multiple car seats, pets can be transported at no additional cost and for those busy mums needing to organise children or teenagers to be picked up or dropped off, bookings can be locked in up to two weeks in advance.”

For additional peace of mind, local drivers on regular school runs can meet mums, their children and the schools beforehand if necessary, and all bookings have preferred driver options.

For those not tech-savvy, Khylie suggests having a family member set up the app and online account for the first booking, and then the driver can either assist with future bookings or provide a phone number once set up in the system. For more information visit www.shebah.com.au or you can PM Khylie via www.facebook.com/ShebahDriversSC.

Step towards more openness in council business

In a move that will greatly improve opportunities for community engagement in decision-making processes, the Sunshine Coast Council has announced that agenda reports to be discussed at council meetings will now be made public ten days before the actual meeting.

Until now, the council had only met the minimum standard required, which was to make the agenda reports available two days before the meeting.

This short amount of time made it very difficult for locals (and the local media) to have adequate time to read and digest the reports, let alone make enquiries about the reports and receive a response before the council meeting got under way.

According to a brief council media release, the reason for increasing the timeframe is because it has to under recent legislative changes.

The agenda reports will now be available to view by 5pm on the Monday ten days before the scheduled meeting.

Unfortunately, minuted decisions of a council meeting aren’t published until at least ten days after the meeting. Let’s hope the council sees the need to improve openness and transparency by reducing that timeframe as well.

Maple Street Co-op set to expand

By Sonia Isaacs Clark The heart of Maleny is expanding, with community retailer Maple Street Co-operative set to unveil a fabulous extension of their premises into what was formally The Maleny Food Co’s ice cream shop and fromagerie.

Manager Charlotte Fogarty-Henderson said that while the much-loved community owned retailer had been operating from the current position for four decades, with more than 4,000 product lines, space was getting tight.

So, when the neighbouring premises became available, the time was right to finally realise their desire to expand.

“We have a 90-year lease so we are not going anywhere soon, and plans for a suitable expansion had been in the pipeline for a number of years,” Charlotte said.

“On behalf of the team here at Maple Street Co-op, I can say we are really excited to be able to offer more organic food, more sustainable products and more options to shop local and keep jobs and money within our community.”

With a focus on community collaboration, the team at Maple Street

Co-op was keen to seek feedback from members about how they wanted the expansion to look and feel.

Responses to a member-focussed survey

from $505,000

included a desire to retain the feel, aroma and coziness of the original store while also allowing for more light and space.

“Members said they wanted to keep the unique rustic atmosphere and warmth but with more natural light and space,” Charlotte said.

“They also asked for better access for prams and wheelchairs, and more bulk self-serve options, so we listened and did it.”

In keeping with their local community and sustainability ethos, work on the expansion involved local tradespeople, organisations, businesses and artisans using locally sourced and sustainable products.

The history of the building and surrounding area has also been incorporated, with thoughtful inclusions such as making the window display benches from a local bunya pine saved from the mulcher and milled, kiln dried and stored for many years by the Blackall Range Woodcrafters Guild before being supplied to the co-op.

The expansion project has taken around 12 months to come to fruition,

Builder Richard (Dickie) Hood peeling off layers of history at 37 Maple Street with plans to open the space in early December with the new ramp accessible entrance next to the old front door.

Currently the co-op has more than 1,000 members. However, all community members and visitors are welcome to shop at the co-op. To find out more visit www.facebook.com/ MapleStreetCoop.

Sundale’s limited new unit release at Coolum Waters combines the best of outdoor living and entertaining with a low-maintenance lifestyle.

The new build blends space and flow, with generous bedrooms, large open living, dining and alfresco spaces and a chef’s kitchen, complete with waterfall stone bench tops.

The master suite, complete with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe is perfectly positioned at the rear of each home for privacy and seclusion, while the airy bathrooms feature floor to ceiling tiles and luxe features.

Business News Mooloolah tavern plans on-hold for childcare centre Plans for the long talked about tavern in Mooloolah seem to have taken a back seat, with an application made to Sunshine Coast Council for a childcare centre on most of the Mooloolah Road land where the tavern was originally earmarked.

The recent application, made on behalf of the land owners Darryl Jennings (from Mooloolah Mitre 10) and Bridgeman Enterprises Pty Ltd (local landlord Vince Ferraro the sole director), will see a childcare centre built at 4-6 Mooloolah Road to cater for 79 children and 12 contact staff.

According to planning documents submitted in support of the application, the centre is proposed to operate Monday-Friday, 6.30am-6.30pm.

The centre will be positioned next to the residential lot at 10 Mooloolah Road, taking up about half the vacant land back towards Way Street. The driveway onto Mooloolah Road from the 25-bay carpark will be directly opposite the house at 5 Mooloolah Road.

The application acknowledges that there is an existing childcare centre (Little Munchkins) located just over 100m from the proposed centre, as well as C&K Kindergarten adjacent to the Mooloolah Valley Community Centre.

In a childcare needs assessment report commissioned in support of the application, consultants Business Geographics Pty Ltd analysed the current and future childcare trends and regional demographics to determine the long-term demand for childcare services in the Mooloolah Valley area.

They determined that there was a definite need for future growth in childcare places locally and noted that the existing Little Munchkins centre is situated on lands earmarked for resumption to accommodate the future expansion of the railway corridor.

As the land is zoned as a local activity centre, a childcare facility is an acceptable use and the application has been deemed as code assessable, meaning no public notification and

no call for community submissions is needed.

To read more about the application go to https://developmenti. sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au and search for MCU20/0317.

For those not be aware of the tavern plans … back in 2008-2009 an application was put to the then Caloundra City Council to build a tavern and motel on the three now vacant blocks heading east from the Way Street and Mooloolah Road intersection.

The tavern proposal created considerable local friction and it was reported at the time that 400 people attended a community meeting on the tavern development. The application received more than 220 public

submissions, for and against, as well as a petition containing 654 signatures in support of the tavern.

The council subsequently refused the application as it was considered to be outside the scope and aims of the town planning scheme at the time. It also noted that a significant number of submissions were received that raised valid concerns about the impact of the proposed development on the character and residential amenity of Mooloolah.

With the new childcare centre application occupying about half the land available, there still remains the opportunity for a tavern development on the residual half – albeit at a rather reduced scale.

New shops for Mooloolah

BiNGo Two new shops are set to be added to the Mooloolah streetscape if Sunshine Coast Council approves a recently submitted development application.

The proposal is for a new free-standing building in front of the existing residential house at 3 Mooloolah Road (next to Mooloolah Family Clinic and Hillside development office).

Built almost to the street front, the structure will have two tenancies totalling 165m2 (83.9 m2 and 81.9m2) and nine car parking spaces at the rear.

The existing residential house will remain and continue to be used.

As the land is in the local centre zone, the construction of the shops is allowable and the application is Glasshouse Country & Maleny News

deemed code assessable, meaning that no public notification is required and there is no call for public submissions.

The property is being developed by the current owners, Allen Jones and Patricia Quinn, under the guidance of Maroochydore town planning consultants Bennett & Bennett.

According to the planning report, the structure will incorporate traditional building materials and “… uses an understated colour scheme and low-reflective roofing and cladding materials, so as to ensure integration within the rural fabric of the Mooloolah Valley Township”.

Lyn McDonald, new principal at Beerwah High

Staff and students at Beerwah State High School recently welcomed their new principal Lyn McDonald, who said she felt extremely privileged to have been appointed to the permanent position and was looking forward to working with the community to support the school, students and staff.

We caught up with Lyn to find out more about her background.

Q: Tell us about yourself I started my teaching career on the Sunshine Coast at Burnside State High School over 30 years ago. Since then, I have taught at various locations across the state including Ayr SHS, Morayfield SHS, Narangba Valley SHS, Queensland Academy of Creative Industries and Dysart SHS. My teaching background is in the area of business and ICT digital technologies. In 2015 I completed a Masters of Education (Research) where I analysed the impact that professional development has on experienced teachers’ use of ICTs in their classrooms.

I am a mum to two adult children and a very proud GG (grandma) to one little cherub.

Q: How would you describe your leadership style?

I’m a relational leader and I look forward to meeting new people and talking to staff, students, parents and the community to understand how I can

10

best lead and support the vision and improvement agenda of the school.

Q: How was your introduction to Beerwah SHS and the community?

I’ve received a very warm welcome into the community and was privileged to be the MC at the recent Remembrance Day service in Beerwah on November 11. The service had over 20 student leaders in attendance from Beerwah SHS, who

represented our school at the highest standard. I have also enjoyed visiting the primary schools in the region to meet the principals and staff as well as introduce myself to the year 6 students.

Q: Is there anything else you would like our community to know?

I would love to meet and greet with community members, local businesses and community organisations. Please

Remembrance Day service in Beerwah with more than 20 Beerwah student leaders

feel free to make contact at any time with the school or through my email at principal@beerwahshs.eq.edu.au if you would like to visit the school, work with our staff or students or if you would like to discuss how we can work together to support the students.

Q: What were some of your first impressions of Beerwah SHS? I’ve been so impressed with the respect that our students have shown to me, the care and commitment that our dedicated, capable and experienced staff show on a continual basis, and the number of interesting and engaging curricular and extracurricular activities that are occurring in the school.

Community News The story behind the photo

By Sonia Isaacs Clark Landsborough local Gwen Davis was one of two hinterland winners in the Sunshine Coast Council 2021 Heritage Calendar photo competition (see GC&M News, October 28). Gwen had submitted a stunning group photo taken around 1916 featuring four siblings of the Hapgood family with three family friends at Cairncross Park Maleny.

Gwen said the photo showed the Hapgood siblings when their family lived and worked at the property of Ted Thynne in Maleny.

Glasshouse Country & Maleny News

She said looking at the photo from left to right, the young man on the far left was Harold White, who was the boyfriend of Dora Hapgood standing next to him. Sadly, Harold was killed in France during World War I. However, before shipping out he had finalised a will, leaving his beloved horse to Dora, which lived on as a family pet for many years.

Next to Dora stands Harry Hapgood who enlisted in December 1916 and spent time in the Middle East with the 11th Light Horse Regiment (Australia), arriving in Egypt in 1917.

Harry recorded his time away through numerous photos and letters to his family back home. Gwen said that nearly 100 years later in 2015, his contribution to the Anzac legend was featured in a World War I centenary exhibition at the Landsborough Museum.

In the photo Harry stands next his sister Edna, who stands next to Harry’s best friend Percy Green who also fought during the war.

Both Harry and Percy returned home, though many of the battle-weary men, including Harry, had to wait several months after the end of the war before ships were made available to return them to Australia. Gwen said documents indicated it wasn’t until the end of August 1919 that Harry was able to finally disembark on home soil.

Ellena Hapgood, known to all as Anne, stands next to Percy and she went on to marry a local man, Tom Fox. The man on the far right is family friend Frank Ford.

Pinocchio at Bankfoot House

Pinocchio, the delightful story of the boy with a wooden heart, will be on show at Bankfoot House on Saturday and Sunday, December 5-6 at 11am and 1pm.

Audiences both young and old will be captivated with The Drama Merchant presentation of this family classic, written in 1883 by Carlo Callodi.

The show is staged as a re-creation of a live 1930s radio broadcast, including music, cheesy ads and news bulletins of the time. It’s a journey back to the golden age of radio as The Drama Merchant brings to life the enchanting story with voices, sound effects and audience participation that will make you want to revisit the Walt Disney animated classic.

Climate change and community action Many in Maleny are hopeful about the future and want to take action on climate change at the local level.

Which is why the next forum to be hosted by Maleny Forums will be on community responses to climate change. It will be held at the Maleny Community Centre on Tuesday, December 1 from 5.30–7.30pm.

Attendance at the forum is free but as a COVID Safe event bookings are required via www.trybooking.com/BMVZJ. Preparation for the forum includes a short survey asking respondents what they already do in response to climate change and what they may consider doing in the future. The short survey

must be completed by November 25 at www.surveymonkey.com/r/RWBY5G3.

Topics by guest speakers include an overview of the Sunshine Coast Council’s policy on climate change and examples of initiatives that have been adopted in other communities.

This is an opportunity to gather with other community members to consider what may be possible in Maleny.

The forum is hot on the heels of a disaster preparedness seminar presented by the Sunshine Coast Council and supported by Maleny Forums. Attendees learnt about developing their ‘what if’ plan ahead of the summer fire and storm season.

Beautiful tribute

School leaders Malakai Pearce, Madelyn Cairns, Jaoxi Cake and Caitlin Thompson proudly raising the flags Staff and students at Glass House Mountains State School gathered for a significant Remembrance Day commemoration on Wednesday, November 11.

As it does every year, the school paused to remember the brave men and women who have fought and served to protect our freedom and to honour those who currently serve. This year the school gathered at its newly completed memorial garden.

The beautiful garden, featuring a Lone Pine and four flag poles, is the result of many years of hard work, negotiation and collaboration between the school and the community.

dIne In...

On The deck!

The P&C worked tirelessly to raise the funds required with their efforts boosted by a grant from the Department of Veterans Affairs, as well as generous support from the Glasshouse Country RSL Sub Branch, the local Men’s Shed and Hanson’s Quarry.

The finishing touches were provided by local federal and state members, Andrew Wallace and Andrew Powell, who provided the flags.

The end result is a tranquil and beautiful tribute from a grateful community. It is the perfect spot to pause a while, pay respects and remember.

Vale Lloyd Larney

Shirley and Lloyd Larney

Over the years, Lloyd was involved in various local organisations, contributing his time and expertise to bring value, leadership and the true essence of community spirit to a wide range of community focussed activities.

As an ex-serviceman with the Royal Australian Air Force and later the RAAF Reserve, Lloyd was involved with the RSL Maleny Sub Branch. On his return to civilian life he contributed to many local organisations including the Maleny State School P&C Association, Maleny Scouts, Maleny Bush Fire Brigade (deputy fire warden), the Maleny Bowls Club, Uniting Church of Maleny, Neighbourhood Watch, Rotary Club of Maleny (president 1992-1993), Maleny Show Society (life member) and Erowal Retirement Village (board president during the construction phase in the 1980s).

Lloyd was also the inaugural group leader of the Maleny SES Group, which officially formed in February 1982. He continued in that role for an impressive 28 years until September 2010.

Over the years Lloyd’s outstanding contribution to his community was also recognised with a number of awards including Rotary Paul Harris Fellow 1989, Centenary Medal 2001, Australia Day Achievement Award 2002, Caloundra Citizen of the Year

2004, SES Meritorious Medal, Medal of the Order of Australia 2009 and in 2019 the Maleny Show awarded him honorary life membership.

Born in Murwillumbah on St Patrick’s Day, March 17, 1929, Lloyd was the third son of Rupert and Kate Larney.

He had four siblings - Terry, Jack, Max and Glad. Max is the only surviving family member today.

The family moved several times before finally settling in Maleny, with Lloyd attending Witta School. The family bought a home in Maleny, which later became the family home of Lloyd and his wife Shirley from 1969.

Lloyd and Shirley were married in 1953 and had a son, Michael, and daughter, Kerry. In later years, the family was blessed with the love of grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Lloyd first joined the RAAF in 1947, serving for 22 years including active service overseas in British Malaya, Korea and Vietnam. He later transferred to the RAAF Reserve for an additional 14 years until his discharge in 1984.

In Maleny, Lloyd bought the school transport business from his father, where he and Shirley gained many friendships. The couple also enjoyed long and happy associations in Maleny including the Rotary Club, RSL Club,

Community stalwart Lloyd Larney

passed away peacefully surrounded by family on October 24

SES and the Show Society.

Shirley said something that might surprise people was that Lloyd loved and enjoyed the music and singing of operas and watching André Rieu concerts. He also loved gardening, a game of bowls, watching cricket, the company of good friends and most certainly a game of bridge.

In paying tribute to her husband, Shirley said a beautiful life had come to an end but Lloyd had died as he lived - everyone’s friend, with a cheerful smile and a heart of gold.

Volunteers go on a famil Maleny Visitors Information Centre volunteers recently had an informative morning at the Maleny Pioneer Village on their local famil.

The history of the village was explained by Desley Malone and included a visit to Priscilla Cottage built in 1906, Lawley House, the doll display in the 1903 Glenferna and an old police lockup.

The Maleny Pioneer Village volunteers provided an enjoyable

Plenty to see at open day

morning tea followed by a visit to the Men’s Shed, which is also located within the village.

The recent open day at the Maleny Pioneer Village was a great success with visitor numbers exceeding all expectations. The incredible new doll collection proved very popular and there was a lot of interest in the local family history. There were also quite a few long admiring glances at the wonderful cars on display.

Landsborough Cub Scouts have been busy working on a project called Messengers of Peace. It’s an international initiative that encourages Scouts to promote peace through work with others, their community and the environment.

The project has seen Landsborough Cubs making possum boxes for the registered wildlife refuge at Rocky Creek Scout Camp Grounds on Old Gympie Road.

Landsborough Cubs Aimee and Chloe said Rocky Creek was a place where injured animals were released when they were healthy and good again.

They said they felt very lucky to have their Scout den located on the grounds.

The Cubs love that their possum boxes are going to provide shelter and a breeding area for local animals.

“Possums and a variety of other animals come here when they are

homeless, and this place provides refuge for any animal that comes here but especially possums,” Aimee and Chloe said.

Landsborough Cubs and Joeys meet on Tuesday nights, and the Scouts and Venturer Scouts meet on Thursday nights.

Aimee and Chloe said that Joeys, Cubs, Scouts and Venturers were able to attend lots of camps and were taught life skills and how to survive in the wild.

They wanted to encourage others to join because they said kids can learn heaps, and if kids are interested they should join Scouts too because the leaders always help out. The group does a lot of fun activities, hikes and camps, and everyone works together as a team. www.facebook.com/ LandsboroughScoutGroup

Energex’s free SMS update service With summer storm season prone to causing power issues, Energex says now’s the time to sign up for their free electricity outage and restoration SMS notifications.

The service also send property owners an SMS five days before any planned maintenance power interruptions in their street.

Energex’s Michael Dart said the SMS service was ideal for helping people plan their lives around unexpected and planned disruptions to power to their house.

“At Energex we know any power interruption can be inconvenient but these SMS texts will allow you to better plan when they occur,” Michael said.

“For example, when our crews have to carry out maintenance and must cut power we’ll always send

Men’s Shed garage sale

a notification via post at least four days beforehand but people who have signed up for the SMS service will also get a text.

“When unexpected outages occur during events such as storms we will SMS affected properties and then send another SMS once power is restored.

“This allows customers to make other arrangements such as go out and return when they receive a text that power has been reconnected.”

To receive outage notifications register at www. energex.com.au/selfservice or phone 13 12 53. You will need your latest electricity bill handy to answer a couple of questions.

Energex customers who want to keep an eye on power issues at near real time can log onto www.energex.com. au/outages.

$2 trips from Peachester to Beerwah Have you tried the Peachester to Beerwah Flexilink transport service? For just $2 residents who live between Peachester and Beerwah can hop on the Sunshine Coast Council’s Flexilink transport service thanks to the council’s transport levy.

Division 1 councillor Rick Baberowski said the service was available Monday to Saturday with three daily return services available for the Peachester to Beerwah service. The route starts at Fortune Avenue/Storrs Road in Peachester and travels along Peachester Road to Simpson Street in Beerwah.

“This fantastic service has been operating since 2010 and provides residents living between Peachester and Beerwah with the convenience of very affordable and reliable transport to Beerwah where they can connect with bus and train services and access many other great services in Beerwah,” Cr Baberowski said.

“It’s very easy to access this Flexilink service. All you need to do is phone 1300 511 163 two hours ahead of departure time or by 9pm the previous night for the first morning services,” he said.

A Peachester resident who regularly uses the service said it was very handy and convenient to use.

Cr Baberowski said passenger numbers needed to increase to ensure the Peachester to Beerwah Flexilink transport service continued.

“Unfortunately, passenger numbers on the Peachester

Driver Glenn Brewster and passengers Eileen and Les Strong to Beerwah service have been declining in recent months. It has to be said that if residents want this service to continue then usage needs to increase or it may not make reasonable sense for it to continue – it’s a case of use it, or lose it.

“We would also like to hear from residents in this area if there is something we can do to improve the service. You can contact council on mail@ sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au.”

The Conondale to Maleny Flexilink service, which also offers three return services a day, six days a week, is still going strong.

COVIDSafe practices are in place for both services.

Contributed by Sandy Woodside The Men’s Shed at Beerwah will hold a garage sale on Saturday, November 28 from 7am in the grounds of Glasshouse Country Care, 352 Peachester Road, Beerwah.

On sale will be great examples of work members have created including leatherwork, woodwork and metalwork as well motor mowers, whipper snippers and a selection of second-hand items. A sausage sizzle and cold drinks will also be available.

The 50 or so mature-age local blokes who are part of the Glasshouse Country Men’s Shed have created a variety of items that will make great Christmas gifts including their leatherwork belts, whips and wallets.

Calorie counting was forgotten as members of the Caloundra Evening VIEW Club finally returned indoors at the Caloundra Power Boat Club for their monthly morning tea.

The friendly club has 110 members and holds regular dinners and a variety of social functions with the important aim of funding educational expenses for nine disadvantaged local students.

The club is one of six on the Sunshine Coast, including the Glasshouse Country VIEW Club, who meet during the day and hold their monthly morning teas and meetings on Wednesdays at the Mooloolah Valley Country Club.

She is not out of the woods yet as she has kindly consented to take on the role of treasurer. Many thanks to Lynda for a job well done.

Congratulations to our new president Margaret Martin, who is another well known identity in Maleny.

Margaret was our former treasurer and we thank her for the hard work she has done in that area.

We all wish her every success in her new role.

Food & Drink Homemade Christmas gifts the sneaky way!

Are you like me and like the idea of sharing real homemade Christmas treats but don’t have the time or, let’s face it, the skills to whip up culinary delights at home?

I reckon I have found the answer. Let the professionals take care of it for you and then pass it off as your own. If anyone asks for the recipe you politely explain that it is a secret family recipe handed down from your nanna, so sadly you can’t pass it on!

Iced Christmas trees and ‘tipsy’ Christmas cakes from Club Glass House the hard work of reading a recipe book and then measuring all the ingredients.

They also have lovely homemade Christmas cakes and will have some beautiful locally made fudge that looks great in any gift box!

The Orangery Maleny is well known for amazing sweets and desserts and it would be hard not to be impressed with what they are selling in their Christmas hamper boxes this year.

Rocky road wreaths, either chocolate and macadamia or white chocolate and pistachio, are available as well as their new brownie bits in raspberry, blueberry or salted caramel macadamias. They are all made in house and are totally gluten free.

If you are looking for more traditional treats such as this beautiful iced Christmas tree, then take a look at the amazing Christmas trees made from iced gingerbread by chef Alec from Club Glass House, or maybe one of his “tipsy” Christmas cakes. Make sure you pop into the club and place your order so you don’t miss out.

Beerwah CWA gets festive The CWA Hall on Simpson Street will be transformed into a fabulous pop-up Christmas shop from Monday to Friday, December 7-11, opening from 8am daily.

The talented CWA members have been busy creating a wonderful array of festive crafts and delicious homebaked treats that can be eaten in the hall while enjoying a cuppa or taken home to share with family.

The week-long initiative is a fantastic opportunity to shop local for handmade and unique Christmas gifts while also supporting our talented local creatives and artists.

At the end of the week, on Saturday, December 12, the Beerwah Tower Green will come alive with a highly anticipated family-friendly event - the festive market extravaganza from 8am-12noon. It will be packed with stalls, Christmas-themed entertainment, locally produced art, craft, jewellery, gifts and homewares, as well as an abundance of traditional home-baked cakes, scones, slices and festive cookies.

There will also be free children’s entertainment, a dance showcase, free festive photos (unfortunately Santa

cannot make a personal appearance this year) and live music by young and talented musicians.

Hosted by the CWA Beerwah branch with the support of the Sunshine Coast Council, this year will be the branch’s 9th Christmas market.

QCWA Beerwah is a not-for-profit organisation supporting the local community for 70 years. Both the pop-up shop and festive market extravaganza are a wonderful way to celebrate the creative community of the Glasshouse Country region while also raising funds for local community groups.

Proceeds from the market this year will be used to support a local family through the Adopt-a-Family Christmas appeal run by the Salvation Army.

Get your tasty Christmas cakes

The Lions boxed Christmas cakes, available in two sizes, are now on sale throughout the hinterland. The delicious traditional fruit cakes are a wonderful way to prepare for your Christmas feasts while supporting the great work of our community clubs.

We’ve had a quick scout around to find some of the places where the local Lions clubs will be selling their cakes, which retail for $13 for a 1kg and $17 for 1.5kg cake, so get in quick before they sell out.

While locals can buy the cakes ready to ice or decorate themselves from local businesses, Maleny Blackall Range Lions Club has gone a little extra with their efforts and are also selling smaller cakes (using the larger cakes cut into quarters) that have been beautifully hand decorated by the ladies of the club at a number of local outlets for $15.

The Blackall Range Lions have also been busy selling specially iced Christmas-themed cakes.

Hinterland Families In conversation with Associate Professor Michael Nagel Associate Professor Michael Nagel is a teacher and academic at the University of the Sunshine Coast. He has delivered hundreds of workshops and seminars, as well as authored and coauthored numerous books and articles related to neurological development in children and adolescents.

Regarded as one of Australia’s foremost experts in child development, we caught up Michael to find out more.

Q: How long have you been working in the field of child development?

I have been in this field for most of my professional life but really began to focus on the developing paediatric brain since 2000. I have always had a sincere interest in child development and in children’s behaviour, and how schools can inadvertently disadvantage students by not understanding how the mind and body work.

Q: In your latest book ‘Educating and Raising Boys’ you have looked to recent advances in neuroscience to examine how the hardwiring in boys’ brains influence the way they learn.

What are some key points?

Both boys and girls learn in similar ways. However, it is how they behave

that can have an impact on their learning. For example, most boys are in perpetual motion and often find themselves having to sit still and ‘not fidget’ in an increasingly sedentary educational system. This puts them at a distinct disadvantage and often sees them in trouble. Simply put, by nature males are designed to move and fidgety behaviour in boys is generally not a behavioural problem.

Movement is so important, so in a classroom environment, for example, giving boys something to hold like a stress ball can be beneficial, or lead them through a series of activities to allow them time to move from high intensity to a lower intensity, especially after running around at lunchtime.

We often hear how boys are easily distracted compared to girls and again there are neurological differences that can underpin this behaviour. In many respects, schools are more hospitable environments for girls.

Q: How can we better support their learning growth?

It is important to know differences in neurophysiology and development to best support the needs of boys.

Again, for example, almost all aspects

Pop-up playgroup in Beerwah Would you like to meet other families in your local community? You are invited to the first pop-up playgroup in Beerwah on Thursday, December 3 from 9.3011.30am at the QCWA Beerwah Hall on Simpson Street, Beerwah.

Early uni offers After dealing with COVID-19 interruptions and a new university entry system, more than 1,300 school leavers have snapped up the chance to secure early offers to the University of the Sunshine Coast – up 83 percent on last year.

USC released its final round of early offers on Friday, November 20, the last day of school for Queensland’s year 12 students.

USC vice-chancellor Professor Helen Bartlett said while USC’s early offer guarantee program had been steadily growing in popularity each year, there had been an influx this year of students seeking security around their future before finishing school.

“It is pleasing to be able to provide 28

certainty and help relieve pressure on the current year 12s who have had to deal with the pandemic disrupting their learning and adapt to the new ATAR (Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank) university entry system,” Professor Bartlett said.

Until recently, USC was the only Queensland university to consistently administer an early offer guaranteed program, with most of the others only implementing similar schemes this year.

There are 300 schools currently registered for USC’s Early Offer Guarantee across Australia, including every eligible high school in its catchment from Brisbane to the Fraser Coast.

For details go to www.usc.edu.au/study.

of development occur earlier in girls than in boys. In the early years girls can be 12 to 18 months ahead of boys in terms of oral language development and therefore to have similar expectations for girls and boys in terms of engaging in literacy is highly problematic and often can lead to much frustration for boys.

Q: What are some tips for better understanding problematic behaviour?

Through advancements in research over the past 20 years or so, we are just now starting to understand how the human brain works. My biggest tip is to consider whether the problematic behaviour is an authentic problem, or a matter of perception and understanding?

Q: What do boys need to allow them to flourish?

A better understanding of how their brains work, of their endless energy and physicality, and plenty of positive male role models. Teen boys also need rites of passage into manhood and a better understanding of positive masculinity. The word ‘toxic’ attached to masculinity is toxic to a boy’s mental health and not helpful. Try to engage in discussion with your

Dr Michael Nagel is an associate professor in child development and learning at the University of the Sunshine Coast child about people they have an interest in (eg, sports, music or media personality) and ask them why they have that interest. Also ask them if that person is a representation of good behaviour and do they think they are a positive role model. There are also a lot of great online resources available by doing a Google search for ‘positive masculinity’.

Harold the hungry toilet Unitywater marked World Toilet Day on November 19 with the launch of a new children’s book that teaches what should and shouldn’t be flushed down the loo.

Unitywater worker and now author, Andrew Hanifin, was inspired to write ‘Harold the Hungry Toilet’, aimed at young children and their parents, during the initial COVID-19 toilet paper shortage.

“I’ve had the book in the pipeline for a while, but the COVID-19 toilet paper shortage and resulting increase in blockages in our sewerage network caused by things like wet wipes, was a real push to publish it,” Andrew said.

In the book, created in collaboration with Unitywater and illustrated

by Sunshine Coast artist Kirstin Gail, Harold teaches a young kid named Billy how to flush responsibly by only putting the three Ps down the loo – pee, poo and (toilet) paper.

Andrew said he hoped the book would encourage both parents and their kids to love their loo. “I’ve

had a great time and a few giggles reading ‘Harold the Hungry Toilet’ to my kids and their friends,” Mr Hanifin said. Story time is not only a wonderful opportunity to bond with kids, but also to sneak in some learning too.

Limited free copies of ‘Harold the Hungry Toilet’ are available for collection at Unitywater offices in Maroochydore and Caboolture.

Email requests for a copy to community@unitywater.com. The book will also be available at a number of public libraries across the region.

Back to School with Beerwah News With another year almost gone, the festive season is upon us and back to school lists for 2021 are being distributed by the various schools.

Beerwah Newsagency will once again be ready to meet all your child’s requirements for 2021.

While they are already suppliers for Beerwah and Peachester State Schools, they can assist with most schools' requirements.

Beerwah Newsagency offers a unique service as your book list items do not have to be paid for until collection. At this busy and expensive time of year they have found this to be a great help for many families. All they ask is that you get your lists to them as early as possible to allow ample time for the packs to be finalised and to minimise the last minute rush that often occurs in the few days before school recommences. Remember, you don’t pay until collection. So simply drop in your lists and they will advise price and discuss collection time.

The newsagency also has an extensive range of slipon book covers to simplify the frustrating covering process. These covers are high quality and last from year to year.

For a number of years Beerwah Newsagency has assisted Beerwah State School, and in the past few years Peachester State School, by donating a percentage of the total book pack sales to them. Over the past nine years this has equated to almost $25,000. This demonstrates the importance of developing a relationship with local businesses that proves beneficial to all. By supporting local business, you in turn reap the rewards of your loyalty through their generosity in giving back to the community.

Les, Merrilyn, Grant and Gabby have 27 years of experience in newsagencies and have been processing school stationery for all that time.

Beerwah Newsagency is a true family business. They have made Beerwah their home and welcome and

appreciate the support of the local community. So, drop in and talk to them and have them price your requirements - you may be surprised at what they can offer.

Together with Jayme, Amber and Ash they will endeavour to make back to school as stress free as possible for you.

You Said It E: Beerwah regional centre redevelopment

I would like to congratulate and support James Aitken on his letter about the proposed regional centre development on Roys Road (GC&M News, November 11).

As James mentioned, it is becoming increasingly impossible to jump in the car and duck into Caloundra to do the shopping or go to the specialty shops we don’t have in the hinterland centres. Surely a new business development that will bring those specialty shops to the local area would be good business.

The re-branding and re-vamping of what was the Coochin Creek Co-op is proof of what can be done to keep up, and what a brilliant job they have done. Along with The Bunker’s new premises and their great pricing, I shop there for all my timber products rather than drive to Bunnings.

However, I still believe we need a Bunnings store in the Beerwah Glass House area because they will offer many items we have difficulty finding in our smaller local stores, not because the local businesses don’t offer good service but simply because they don’t have the space to carry the stock that a Bunnings store can carry.

Beerwah, Glass House and Landsborough are no longer the sleepy little railway towns they once were.

They have become vibrant business areas and will continue to grow, and if our current business centres don’t keep up with the rapidly growing population, we will get left behind. People who seem to think the introduction of another business centre would split the town in half and endanger the livelihood of current businesses are very wrong. A bit of competition is good for everybody and will enhance the area rather than diminish it.

However, if the new centre is approved, we don’t need McDonald’s.

There is already a Macca’s only ten minutes away at the twin servos on the

Glass House, can I help you?

Thank you for the support when I ran for Glass House over the past six months. I’m deeply committed to making politics work for ordinary people and not just for the politicians and billionaires.

I am involved in many groups in my home town of Maleny.

If there is anything I can do for other towns across the electorate of Glass House, I offer you my assistance.

I’d be happy to speak to your group, or help with a social, economic, justice or environmental problem in your area, or facilitate town hall meetings in your town.

Government at all levels has stopped listening to its citizens. It’s not easy being human but our unjust structures make it harder.

It was a very successful campaign for us. We doubled our supporter and volunteer base and increased our membership by 30%.

We got an extra seat and had more people vote for the Greens ever. When COVID subsides as the number one issue, voters will start to look at what politics can actually deliver for them.

I’m not satisfied with a world that allows billionaires to pay less tax than you. I’m not satisfied with corporates buying influence by ‘donating’ to governments. I’m not satisfied that Murdoch media controls our public narrative. If you aren’t either, please contact me on andrew.mclean@qld.greens.org.au.

it when he said: “With the allocation of preferences, a higher percentage of voters subsequently preferred Labor over the LNP …”

The voter alone has control over where preferences flow (as in, parties cannot ‘give’ their preferences to anyone).

The best way to vote is to put a minor party first and then your choice of major party (Labor or LNP). If you vote for a major first, they get stronger and more corrupt.

Voting a minor party first and then a major, gives the minor party strength to “keep the bastards honest”. Close to three quarters of a million people voted minor parties first this election - let’s have more next time!

Weed workshop

I recently attended an invasive weeds workshop run by Jeanette Nobes at Maleny RSL. Jeanette is a consultant on invasive weeds and is passionate about dealing with these invaders before they completely overtake the beautiful environment on the Blackall Range.

There were handouts available showing how to deal effectively with these pests.

Many of the woody weeds such as privet and camphor are overwhelming our native plants. As a consequence, the natural foods that wildlife prefer, are squeezed out.

Jeanette pointed out that these weeds are successful because they seed prolifically every year whereas our indigenous fruit-bearing plants often only seed once every 5-20 years, putting them at a distinct disadvantage. Because of this many of our native birds and animals are compelled to eat the fruits of the

weeds, compounding the problem by further spreading them.

Our wildlife is under enormous pressure with our expanding population and increased demand for housing.

Many of us plant nectar producing garden plants that do not produce fruit for our rainforest dwellers, thereby encouraging nectar eaters, such as noisy miners and rainbow lorikeets, to the detriment of our fruit eaters.

I would encourage all residents to learn more about the impact of invasive weeds and attend workshops, if offered again, to learn why and how to deal with these weeds. Sunshine Coast Council has resources on their website under environment to assist weed identification and native plants best suited to replacing woody weeds.

There are many lovely native plants such as blueberry ash, lilly pillies and sandpaper figs that will enhance the environment and provide native fruits for our wildlife.

Maleny High School formal

The Maleny High staff and the Caloundra Events Centre did an incredible job of putting together a fantastic event for our kids.

There were so many extra rules and regulations that needed to be followed and there was obviously a lot of extra organisation going on behind the scenes to make the night flow so beautifully.

It was a very special night for everyone and such a joy to watch them all dancing together at the end.

Hinterland Heritage

With Sonia Clark

Maleny Soldiers Memorial Hospital The official centenary celebrations for the Maleny Soldiers Memorial Hospital, which was originally established as a private hospital to serve the returned servicemen and women of the district, was highlighted in the GC&M News October 28 edition.

While COVID-19 meant that plans for a large community celebration were unable to go ahead this year, staff and community members involved with the much-loved rural institution hope they can come together in 2021 to celebrate on May 21, the date the hospital was gazetted in 1920 as a general public hospital.

We caught up with Pam Porter who has been an enrolled nurse at the facility for more than 45 years. She generously shared her memories of

Maleny Soldiers Memorial Hospital soon after opening 1920 (Image: Picture Sunshine Coast, Sunshine Coast

her time at both the original hospital site (located near the new Maleny Ambulance Station) and the current building, which opened in 1987.

Pam said that like many from the area she was born at the hospital. In her early married life she started work at the hospital, providing six weeks leave relief in 1969.

A few years later in May 1975, Pam was called in to provide holiday leave relief again but ended up swapping her relief work for a permanent position.

In December that year she started fulltime work at the hospital.

Pam remembers that when she started, a couple of staff would care for 10-12 patients at a time. Although it could get quite busy at times, staff were always able to manage the workload.

“It was a lot different then. There were no after-hours visits and once we shut the doors it was rare to have people come at night,” Pam said.

“Patient reports were written up three times a day in one big book.

“We also had the best parties with a wonderful spread of food for any staff who were leaving to get married or retiring.

“There was always wonderful rapport Pam Porter around between all the 1980 staff and the kitchen ladies and helpers. Cook made wonderful meals and we all shared a lot of laughs as well as sadness when we lost a patient we had cared for,” Pam said.

She has fond memories of the town centenary in 1978 when staff made up a hospital float and everyone dressed up, including wardsman Bill Penney who dressed as Dr Parer, the longserving medical superintendent of the hospital who was Maleny’s doctor from the 1930s to the 1950s.

Pam remembers that after the new facility was built, the old hospital was dismantled in 1988 with the various buildings relocated across the district.

“It was interesting for both staff and locals to watch the old hospital being taken away. I think the old maternity ward was taken at 11 o’clock at night, and a few trucks over time got bogged after heavy rain trying to do the removals,” Pam said.

She recalls that the private end of the old hospital was taken to Corks Pocket Road in Reesville, and the kitchen, domestic dining and the wards were relocated to another property at Reesville.

The maternity section was moved to Samford and the nurses quarters moved to Avocado Lane in Maleny.

Pam said that while many things had changed over the years, the sense of caring for the community and patient care were still priorities. She has loved being part of such a special country hospital that holds fond memories for many in the district.

Living - Arts Exquisite nature photography at Vianta

Hall offering exhibition space

A new exhibition of beautiful nature photography by Graeme Toft will be on show during December at Vianta Arts in Beerwah.

Graeme is a dedicated nature photographer who specialises in landscapes and Australian birds. A lover of our flora and fauna since he was a child, discovering photography more than ten years ago gave added inspiration to his main passion of birds.

He has travelled extensively throughout Asia and other parts of the world photographing nature and exotic bird species.

Graeme has sold his images in North America and Europe and has taught photography on the Sunshine Coast.

He has also had a weekly talkback radio show on the ABC discussing local birds and photography with interested Sunshine Coast and Brisbane residents.

Although the images to be displayed at this exhibition at Vianta Arts represent just a fraction of those he has taken over the years, they give an insight into his passion and the patience required to get the right shot.

The Landsborough School of the Arts Memorial Hall has opened its doors to artists, offering the venue for their works to be put on public display.

Artists have the choice of their art being for sale or just for display.

The offer is at no cost to the artists who want to showcase their art in the hall.

The concept is to have a rotation of artists throughout the year. The first artist will be Britta Kuttner from Mount Mellum.

Britta describes painting as her language for passing on positive feelings about happiness, freedom and harmony.

“When I work with colour I feel in touch with nature and when people see my work, they feel peaceful and relaxed,” Britta said.

“My work encompasses a range of styles from landscapes and seascapes, to the human form and still life combined with fantasy.”

A meet-the-artist time slot will be included at the Landsborough Markets so artists can engage with visitors.

The times and artists attending will

Graeme’s exquisite large format photographs are a must see for any lover of nature. The official opening night for the exhibition will be held on Friday, December 4 at 6.30pm. Vianta Arts is located at 70 Simpson Street, Beerwah.

be posted on the Facebook pages of both the Landsborough School of Arts Memorial Hall Assoc Inc and the Landsborough Markets.

To find out more contact the hall booking officer via email at bookings@landsboroughhall.org.au.

Britta and her current exhibition

Healing catcher exhibition Hinterland artist Ayca Gulgec will be showcasing her unique and colourful vision of creating a healing future with her second exhibition of Healing Catchers.

The exhibition will run from Friday to Sunday, December 4-6, at the Crystal Waters Village Green deck area located next to the Flowerpot Coffee Shop.

Artistically inspired by Marcia Starck’s book ‘Healing with Astrology’, Ayca’s creative journey focusses on creating a peaceful and harmonious world.

Inspiration for her current exhibition evolved during lockdown and Ayca’s desire to show beauty instead of fear.

Ayca said COVID-19 was not just about fear and negativity, it was also a chance for change. She believes that this time has provided positive outcomes for the world and our way of life.

“The Healing Catchers offer health, vitality, abundance, joy, exuberance and love. All our desires meet with clarity, we raise our vibration and create a better world,” Ayca said.

“My dream is a world full of people who will embrace each other again and live in harmony, and to create a beautiful and healing future for us all.” www.facebook.com/ CrystalWatersEcoVillage

Horoscopes

Week beginning November 29

SAGITTARIUS November 23 – December 21 You might want to put some space between you and a barrage of conflicting opinions. Be smarter in your decision making, especially when it comes to business or purchases. To maintain stability at work and home, stay patient and remain receptive to alternate viewpoints. Honest discussion beats hostility any time.

GEMINI May 21 – June 21 You have a reputation for conquering your competition with words.

Wry, quirky humour is Gemini’s style but your words can be quite cutting. If making light of others’ characteristics, don’t expect an appreciative audience. Sure, there are times when the world deserves ridicule, but not everyone will get the joke. Play nice.

SAGITTARIUS November 23 – December 21 This birthday season coincides with a major turning point – a time when you’re free to attract whatever you please. For some, new business or travel opportunities arise. Others enjoy the pleasures of requited romance. Just be wary of overly dependent companions, particularly those who happily fritter away your hard-earned cash.

GEMINI May 21 – June 21 Geminis live the paradox of being people oriented but are easily stifled when confined. So, if someone tries to bolt a ball and chain around your thoughts or actions, you may be tempted to make a run for it.

Truth is, some consider your plans to be unrealistic but don’t forget these are your dreams. So go make them happen.

CAPRICORN December 22 – January 20 For some time now, you’ve suffered upheaval. Still, the experience hasn’t been all bad as you’ve gained the gifts of wisdom, tenacity and tolerance. The planets now announce a major change and growing confidence. Socially you sizzle. Romance wins a generous time slot, with enough allure to conjure up an enigmatic new love.

CANCER June 22 - July 22 A secret could be exposed Cancer.

While you may feel a tad indignant at having your psyche placed on such public display, avoid any temptation to retaliate. This is not a time to shoot whatever grace you have left in the foot. The trouble with confronting bullies is that you risk acting the same way. Be the better person.

CAPRICORN December 22 – January 20 It’s OK Capricorn. We know all about those darker passions that lurk beneath your sometimes overly pragmatic veneer. Last week offered the chance to free up some of that hidden intensity but many of you kept a handle on things. This week pushes even harder for inner desires to be set free. Such daring has been a long time coming.

CANCER June 22 - July 22 Expect an all-or-nothing kind of week, with little middle ground. The highs can bring a surge of action, the lows an overly-confident or aggressive attitude. If feeling energetic, immerse yourself in demanding activity, especially if you’re stuck at home.

Yes, you’re feeling frustrated but so is everyone else. Chill Cancer.

AQUARIUS January 21 – February 18 Just when you thought everything was going well, yet another new setback tests you. Don’t panic. You have the tenacity to get through this. Most Aquarians work too long and too hard to even consider surrender.

You’re prepared to take all necessary measures to maintain peace of mind – and that’s what counts.

LEO July 23 – August 23 If recent efforts have felt like all pain and no gain, don’t lose heart. This isn’t the first time you’ve battled against the odds.

File mistakes under forget and keep trying for that breakthrough. Take comfort in the fact there’s a planetary support team assembling this week just for you. A relationship may benefit from an honest heart-to-heart.

AQUARIUS January 21 – February 18 If trouble flares, act with diplomacy. The trick lies in distancing yourself from this week’s emotional inferno rather than getting caught up in it. As soon as Aquarians buy into any over-hyped drama you lose your natural objectivity and could make some ill-considered decisions. This isn’t the time for that. Don’t overreact.

LEO July 23 – August 23 The world’s getting smaller but it can still seem like a big, lonely place when you start to question how much you really have in common with those around you. Major planets are in the same boat right now, feeling very distant. Perhaps it’s time to find new solutions to old problems. There’s little point sticking to the tried and true if it’s not working.

PISCES February 19 – March 20 After walking on financial quicksand for so long, this week brings you comfortably back on solid ground. You’re also better able to appreciate how previous setbacks served you. With hindsight, you can turn past mistakes into future triumphs. Even recent health issues should start to ease. Find what you love doing and enjoy it.

VIRGO August 24 – September 22 You have the enviable ability to catch hold of yourself in times of chaos and do a quick reality check. Just as well, as life’s been a busy blur of activity recently and you’ve probably made more changes than usual. Unnerving but certainly exhilarating.

Just don’t be guilted or seduced into following another’s dreams.

PISCES February 19 – March 20 Pisceans are known for their wistful ways. It’s fine to have the occasional daydream but don’t let fantasy replace reality. A hard ask, I know. In order not to be exploited you really must be able to deal with the cold, hard facts of life – and there may be a few to contend with this week. Know who your true allies are.

VIRGO August 24 – September 22 Change doesn’t come easily to Virgos. This week, however, you start to learn new ways of dealing with life. It won’t be easy to make certain changes but letting go is exactly what you should do. Stop worrying about the things that you may leave behind and instead focus on everything waiting in the future.

ARIES March 21 – April 20 Stand by for a reshuffle of values that could see love and friendship take on a new tone. You’ll be surprised who volunteers when you need help, and be equally startled at who will let you down.

This week brings a crash course in what you need from relationships. If a certain love is unsalvageable, take courage and say goodbye.

LIBRA September 23 – October 23 Most Librans can expect a better week. You’ve managed to shake off recent problems and the forces that previously prevented progress have moved on to plague other less fortunate signs. This leaves you with optimism and the benefit of hindsight.

You also increasingly look and feel fantastic – a fabulous bonus.

ARIES March 21 – April 20 Steady as she goes Aries. You’re sailing into a week that requires tact and patience. For one thing, pushy behaviour won’t open doors as effectively as a courteous request. At worst, beg to differ and walk away with your integrity intact. Your absence will ensure that you won’t be taken for granted again.

LIBRA September 23 – October 23 Dust off recent confusion and pull your self-esteem out of its tailspin. With inspiration and drive steering the way, it’s time to regain control. Romance encourages intimacy and warmth, although it’s a week for tenderness rather than torrid passion.

The planets also inspire imaginative ways to improve your income.

TAURUS April 21 – May 20 Half the world is talking about cutting their workload. According to social futurists, we’re all meant to be downsizing.

We’re supposed to value our leisure time more, especially during these difficult times.

Seems you haven’t taken this message to heart as you continue to slog through the workload. Get off the treadmill Taurus.

SCORPIO

TAURUS April 21 – May 20 Networking is an excellent way to share your talents and this week you might find yourself in the right place at the right time. Similarly, it’s knowledge that creates success, so impress others with your intellect.

If love’s on your mind, it shouldn’t be too difficult to deliver a knockout sales pitch.

After all, it’s a commodity you believe in.

SCORPIO October 24 – November 22 Help can often come from mysterious quarters and we don’t always know who’s pulling the strings on our behalf, or why. If this is happening, don’t question it. Finances improve as the week progresses. So when the cosmos signals it’s time for a spend-up, don’t argue. Half of life’s negatives are due to our failure to act on the positives.

October 24 – November 22 This week’s spirited sassiness can’t help but turn heads. Business could mix with pleasure. Or perhaps a higher-up is instrumental in pushing you towards success. Whatever the case, right now you’re ambitious and talented enough to triumph. If others resent your moment of glory, ignore them. Push your aims skyward.

High-powered Sunshine Coast couple Barbara and Allan Pease are known around the world for their work in the field of body language, communications and relationship resilience.

They have stepped into the role of ambassadors for the charity ‘no more fake smiles’ with gusto. They have declared that Australia should be mortified by statistics showing almost 15,000 Australian children under the age of 19 reported sexual abuse last year.

When Barbara met ‘no more fake smiles’ co-founder Tracey Morris and heard the heart-breaking story of her daughter Annie Jones’s two years of sexual abuse at the hands of her stepfather, all of that changed.

In fact, as Barbara came to know Tracey as a friend and witnessed the bravery, resilience and authenticity behind the charity, it was Barbara who offered to step into the role as ambassador alongside Allan.

The Sunshine Coast-based organisation recently celebrated its first birthday, marking five years since Annie had the courage to disclose the abuse to

her mother, prompting Tracey to take decisive and immediate action to keep her daughter safe and ensure the offender – her husband at the time was brought to justice.

The charity also facilitates appropriate therapeutic services for victims of child sexual abuse and secondary victims – the family members who are as affected but most often overlooked by other support services.

The charity is looking for support in every capacity, from volunteers for committees through to people wanting to include ‘no more fake smiles’ as the beneficiary of their fundraising events or simply giving monetary donations to allow them to support more families.

Charity ambassadors for ‘no more fake smiles’

We all know older people in our community. However, it is likely we don’t know if they are hiding some form of abuse, not necessarily physical. They may not be sure if the people entrusted with their care are overstepping their responsibilities.

Perhaps we could be subjected to abuse in the future and not know how to deal with it, or how to retain our rights as we age.

The Speak Up Now Maleny and Blackall Range committee will host an elder abuse forum in the Maleny RSL Hall on Tuesday, December 1, at 10.30am.

The forum is open to all and will start with a complimentary morning tea provided by the CWA and Lions before the forum starts at 11am.

A group spokesperson said that as well as physical and emotional abuse, elders often suffered abuse of power by their carers, which could include family members.

Staff at the Suncoast Community Legal Service have written the play ‘Piano

Free Elder Abuse Forum

Forte’ that raises issues of elder abuse and the pitfalls involved with wills and enduring power of attorney.

A video of the 40-minute play will be shown at the forum to provide a fun and easily accessible way of introducing these issues to older people.

“We were keen to bring it to the attention of anyone who cares for older people and also for the elders in our community,” the spokesperson said.

Julian Porter, from Suncoast Community Legal Service, and Tove Easton, from Easton Lawyers, will also speak on the day and answer questions from the audience following the forum, which should close by 12.30pm.

The committee must comply with COVID-19 restrictions including the number of attendees. Attendance is free but registration is essentail via email at combinedserviceclubsmaleny@gmail. com as soon as possible or phone the event coordinator Val France on 0419 599 042.

Carers deserve a break

Free breast cancer screening in Beerwah

Caring for a family member comes with many rewards. Equally, it can come with challenges, which have been highlighted throughout this pandemic.

The family-owned business McKenzie Aged Care understands the difficulties faced by family members who are unpaid carers.

Carers can feel that no one else can do what they do. They often put the needs of the person they care for before their own and can feel guilty when taking a break from their caring role.

However, at Mackenzie they understand it is vitally important for carers to look after themselves.

McKenzie encourages carers to feel assured that while they take some time for themselves, their loved one can be well cared for by professional and experienced staff in short-term respite care.

A McKenzie home keeps your loved one safe, healthy and in a secure environment where they are cared for and cared about.

The staff work with the carer to develop an individualised care plan that incorporates their loved one’s current routine and what they may

Breast cancer is so common it is likely you have a friend or relative who has had it. After all, one in seven Queensland women have been diagnosed with breast cancer.

To ensure breast cancer is detected as early as possible, it’s important that women have regular breast screens.

Until December 16, the BreastScreen Queensland’s mobile service is at the Beerwah Community Hall providing free breast screening.

Kelly Hart, health promotion officer at BreastScreen Queensland Sunshine Coast, says mammograms or breast screens are the most effective, proven method of detecting breast cancer early.

“Screening brings forward the time at which breast cancer can be diagnosed, so that the cancer can be found when it’s small, confined to the breast and hasn’t spread to the lymph nodes,” she said.

Women aged 50-74 years are strongly encouraged to have regular two-yearly breast screens.

The BreastScreen Queensland program is provided free to women aged 40 and over.

want from the care they receive.

McKenzie respite care is available when it is needed and can be organised for planned holidays, while recuperating from an illness or hospital stay, or when a carer just needs some time to rest and rejuvenate. McKenzie emphasises that it is okay for carers to take that time.

If you are a carer who needs a break call 1300 899 222 to speak with one of the dedicated team to discuss how they can support you and your loved one. You can also visit www.mckenzieacg.com.

Makenzie Aged Care has facilities at Beerwah, Buderim, Bribie and Deception Bay.

“It’s not just women who receive a letter from BreastScreen Queensland who can make an appointment at this free service,” Kelly said.

“Women who have not received a letter but who would like to make an appointment at the BreastScreen mobile can call 13 20 50 or they can book online at www.breastscreen.qld. gov.au,” she said.

Referrals are not required.

Get online and be connected!

In any community, and especially in a region like ours, some of our older residents find it difficult to access the services they need. Others can become socially isolated. The internet can make a big difference to both challenges but it is not without risks of its own. People aged over 70 can be vulnerable online and they are sometimes understandably concerned about getting involved.

However, it does not need to be that way. I recently joined a group of older residents in the hinterland who are supporting each other, with the federal government’s help, to make the most of what the digital world can offer.

At Twin Cedars Lifestyle Community, hinterland local and all-round top bloke John Pozzey leads a group of 20 residents who meet for computer classes every Friday morning. I recently went along to celebrate the new addition to their group.

They applied for a federal government grant to celebrate Get Online Week through the Morrison government’s BeConnected program. The group received $1,500 and used the money to buy new iPads and a new monitor to help develop their skills. It was fantastic to see how much they have learnt and to hear about how this knowledge is helping Twin Cedars residents stay connected with their families and friends during this difficult time.

Congratulations to John and everyone involved!

If you would like to find out more about how to get online and stay safe, you can find great resources at www.aus.getonlineweek.com.

John Pozzey with Andrew Wallace MP

First of all, thank you for putting your faith in me.

As part of the Palaszczuk government I’ll work with everyone and for everyone in Beerwah, Landsborough and throughout the electorate of Caloundra.

Jobs, education, roads and quality public services, including health and public transport, remain my top priorities.

We need to put down solid foundations so we can build stronger communities for everyone. Your quality of life is my priority.

As I promised before the election, I’ll organise mobile offices so I can regularly visit and meet with residents in Beerwah and Landsborough. I want to listen to you and your issues and act on them for you.

My office contact details are: Phone: 5329 4100 Email: caloundra@parliament.qld.gov.au In the weeks leading up to Christmas, the Queensland Government’s schedule is to get to work implementing our COVID-19 recovery plan. It starts with the opening of Parliament, when I’ll give my maiden parliamentary speech, and will be followed up with the state budget.

The parliamentary frenzy of the final weeks of 2020 seems to fit with a year most would agree has been crazy.

Like everyone else, I’m hoping we will see the border with NSW and Victoria opened before Christmas but that will depend on the Chief Health Officer’s expert advice.

Lastly, I want to extend my thanks to my predecessor, Mark McArdle. I trust Mark, his wife Judy and their family will enjoy a well-earned rest after representing the people of Caloundra for the past 17 years.

with Andrew Powell State Member for Glass House

Thank you Glass House I’m so humbled to be returned as your Member for Glass House for the next four years, and since there is still so much to be done for our area, it’s time to get straight back to work!

For starters, a state budget is just weeks away and I’ll be checking the government is true to its word and has allocated funding for projects like the upgrades on Maleny-Kenilworth Road at Cambroon.

Since the election, I’ve also been privileged to speak at the combined Maleny and Montville Chambers of Commerce breakfast. It was great to personally thank outgoing president Nicole Hilton for her years of service to Maleny. At Range Care’s AGM I was honoured to again be asked to serve as patron of this extraordinary organisation. It’s great to get stuck back into working with and for the community.

Andrew with Thea Caffin and Pat Habner, Life Members of Blackall Range Care Group New leadership team While I was a huge fan of the LNP’s leadership team of Deb Frecklington and Tim Mander during the last Parliament, with their departure I welcome our new team of David Crisafulli (Member for Broadwater on the Gold Coast) and David Janetzki (Member for Toowoomba South). I’ve had the privilege of working alongside both men for many years. They are hard working and passionate about Queensland and Queenslanders. I look forward to serving with them as part of the LNP state team.

Cribb Street update The Cribb Street upgrade in Landsborough is now revealing the shape and scope of the revamped streetscape and we’re pushing hard for major construction works to be completed by late this month. Minor works such as street furniture will continue into early December. A huge shout out to the traders and the community for supporting each other throughout the changes of the construction works.

Have your say on Landsborough planning scheme amendment Feedback on proposed Sunshine Coast Planning Scheme 2014 amendments, which include changes in Landsborough, will close on December 4. The proposed amendment from rural to low density residential relates to approximately 16 hectares of land located on the south-eastern edge of Landsborough’s existing urban area.

Submit feedback via council’s https://haveyoursay. sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au/seqrp-sites.

The Friends of Mary Cairncross Association (FMCA) publication ‘The Magic of Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve – A Celebration of Art and Nature’, edited by Les Hall, has won the prestigious 2020 Whitley Award in the Local Zoology category from the Royal Zoological Society (NSW).

This cements the reputation of this exquisite (much more than just a coffee table) book and acknowledges the many hours of dedicated work by the editor, the many artists and scientists, and the executive members of FMCA. All are to be congratulated.

The FMCA recently reached a significant milestone. Members celebrated our 21st birthday with a delightfully decadent morning tea at The Orangery Maleny.

In other news, a new exhibition theme has been unveiled at the Mary Cairncross Discovery Centre named Operation Botanica – Undercover in the Rainforest. The displays highlight some of the commonly unknown dangers for rainforest trees that lurk in our midst. These conditions threaten the very livelihood of the forest and deserve to be more generally known in the community. Come and explore the exhibits and learn how to help protect the magnificent rainforest trees. The exhibition theme will run until April 2021.

FMCA is always on the lookout for new members. Please consider signing up ($10 a year) to become active in a friendly, local association that is passionate about the natural environment.

Information can be obtained at the Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve or from fmcasec@gmail.com.

with Winston Johnston Project update Council previously purchased 65 hectares of land adjoining the Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve and is in the early stages of developing a plan for its future use.

Before further planning is undertaken, we need to fully understand the attributes, values and constraints of the site and determine if establishing an ecological park is feasible and how it may function.

This comprehensive assessment will take place during the next 12 months and future planning is proposed to involve a broad range of stakeholders. I will continue to keep you updated.

Recycling tips National Recycling Week was held recently. Here are five simple steps to help you recycle right: • Keep it clean, empty of food, drink and other contents.

• Keep it simple - bottles and containers only when it comes to plastics.

• Keep it safe for our workers and people sorting your recycling.

• Size does matter (nothing smaller than the size of a yogurt pot).

• Keep rethinking about reusing, reducing and avoiding waste.

For more information visit www.sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au and search for ‘Learn how to recycle right’.

New CEO begins work On November 23, Sunshine Coast Council’s new chief executive officer Emma Thomas started work.

She is extremely well qualified, with many strengths that will benefit the future of our region.

Both councillors and staff are looking forward to welcoming her and working with her to deliver great results for our community.

The long spells of dry weather can make your soils water repellent.

Use soil wetting granules to make the most of any storm rainfall. Wet humid weather is heaven for vegetable caterpillars and grasshoppers.

Hand remove or spray with a natural spray (such as Dipel or Success) every couple of days. Remember that water washes any sprays off, so repeat after rain or overhead irrigation.

Paw paw trees that have grown too tall can cut be cut back now.

Cut the stem to 1m off the ground and cover the cut top with a large can.

Prune back your grevilleas by a third and feed them with a low phosphorus fertiliser.

This simulates being burnt back in a bushfire and stimulates them to grow more branches – more branches means more flowers.

Don’t forget to slip-slop-slap when you go out in the garden, even if it is for a short period. Try to do most of the work in the early mornings or

the late afternoons so you miss the heat of the day. Take a water bottle with you too keeping well hydrated is important.

Nutgrass will be actively growing now. If you want to dig them out, you’ll have to be like an archaeologist and carefully excavate along the fine underground stems to uncover and remove the ‘nuts’, otherwise they will just regrow. Or you can carefully brush a strong glyphosate and water mixture onto the leaves and repeat when the remaining nuts shoot. If you have a lot of the weeds, spray with a special nutgrass herbicide containing halosulfuron (most common brand is called Sempra). It’s expensive but effective.

Hygiene is terribly important in the control of black spot on roses. On a regular basis gather up any diseased leaves that have fallen on the ground and dispose of them in the bin.

Don’t put them in the compost heap.

Lawn grubs are about from now on.

At the first sign spray with one of the commercial lawn grub products. If you have magpies feeding their young, steer clear of a chemical treatment (as they will feed the treated grubs to the chicks) and use soapy water to bring the grubs to the surface for the magpies to clean up for you.

Protect your tomatoes from fruit flies by using an exclusion net or spraying with one of the insecticides registered for the job. I bag all of my tomatoes when they are small using a paper bag held on with a peg. Tip: Freeze tomatoes whole in plastic bags to use in cooking later. When you want to use then, run them under a tap while frozen and their skins come right off.

Tunnelling ants are active and can cause headaches in pot plants.

Drown them by watering with soapy water, maybe with a few drops of a garden insecticide.

Tidy up the garden for Santa. He doesn’t think too highly of a messy garden.

YOU GET SO MUCH MORE. FOR SO MUCH LESS. NOW THAT’S SOMETHING TO SMILE ABOUT. Meandering along the South Mooloolah River bend in picturesque Mooloolah Valley, Hillside is designed for life with spacious allotments, landscaped streetscapes and 40 hectares* of nature, open space and waterway corridors.

Relaxed and friendly, Mooloolah Valley is a welcoming town with a community that you can really be part of. It has everything you need in life including shops, a school, recreation reserve, riding centre, community hall and country bakery.

Hillside is your chance to make a savvy property choice and build your brand new dream home on a spacious block, connected to all of life’s necessities.

Being such a peaceful country town, it’s hard to believe that Hillside is so close to everything else. Sunshine Coast beaches are only 25 minutes away and Brisbane is only 80 kilometres away. Not that you’ll ever want to leave.

Glasshouse Country & Maleny News

Trades & Services Directory Talking trades with Patten Earthmoving Over the years, many locals have had the pleasure of talking with Glenview business owner Robert Patten. Robert has been operating his earthmoving business Patten Earthmoving for the past 28 years and he’s real-life proof that if you love what you do, you never work a day in your life.

“I can honestly say I’ve enjoyed every day I’ve worked and have never had a customer who wasn’t happy with the end result,” Robert said.

Patten Earthmoving covers all aspects of major earthmoving and provides good,

honest and reliable service. With a team of operators and large fleet of machinery, they’re able to complete jobs of all sizes.

In the 1990s, Robert gained his expertise in earthmoving from several more experienced operators across a range of projects and areas of construction. This stuck with him throughout projects large and small, and Robert has continued to grow his business over the years.

Knowledgeable and practical, early business days saw Robert design a mulcher head suitable for anything

a tractor couldn’t manage. You have probably seen him along the main roads of Maleny, Mapleton and surrounds clearing vegetation.

Whether it’s a rock wall, road works, landscaping, a dam clean or something else entirely, make sure you pick up the phone to have a chat to Robert about how he can help with your earthmoving needs.

“Seeing the finished product of projects of all sizes really is unreal and I love being able to help my customers with their projects,” he said.

Beerwah Swimming Club Contributed by Karli Pearson The club is proud of our fantastic swim team. We recently took nine swimmers to the Gympie long course swimming meet and came away with 23 PBs, 17 medals, one pool record and one age champion.

Iris broke the Gympie pool record for 13-year-old girls in the 50m breaststroke with a time of 38.38

seconds and Kael was awarded the multiclass girls 14 year age champion.

Our swimmers try their hardest, support each other and have fun.

We pass on our thanks to Charlie, our awesome coach, whose expertise, support, encouragement and advice is so appreciated by us and the time he gives to these kids means the world.

Well done all round.

U14 boys premiers and Col Pringle team award Charlie, Josh, Dalton, Indi, Iris, Seanna, Grace, Ella and Kael

Witta Tennis

U12 premiers

Contributed by Pauline Fraley Friday, November 6: The Wildcats had a forfeit win.

The Whistlers enjoyed a match against the Caloundra Racquettes.

Witta won 8-0 sets, 48-10 games.

The score line did not really indicate the competitive match. Team was Brenda Warner, Donna Kuskopf, Paula Cudmore and Maree Hooley.

Wednesday, November 11: Eumundi Miss Gems have done it again! Witta Wagtails had a slow start but improved in the second half but unfortunately not enough to secure a win. Congratulations to Eumundi Miss Gems. Thanks to Gerry Gabriel, Jan Maguire, Cynthia Garvie and Sonia Douglas.

Friday, November 13: Wildcats lost

to Coolum. It was nice tennis. The Whistlers had the bye.

Wednesday, November 18: Witta Wagtail girls enjoyed their day of tennis against Cooroy Aces. However, the Wagtails were outclassed. Good luck to Cooroy Aces in the finals.

Players were Gerry Gabriel, Cynthia Garvie, Jan Maguire and Sonia Douglas.

Sport The Range Croquet Club Contributed by Ken Barker On Thursday, November 12, in pictureperfect conditions, Donna Manning and Ken Barker were beaten in a game of doubles 20–9 by Vince and Val Carbery, who played brilliantly. On lawn two Gillian Bradley and Janelle Wilson beat Helen Andrews and Bev Sockhill 10-8 while Sarah Widin and Lynette Evans beat Wallace Roy 15-7.

Sunday, November 15 saw fewer players on the lawns because of the predicted hot weather. Fortunately, a persistent cool southerly kept conditions reasonable. Ken and Janelle squeaked ahead of Donna and Wallace 5-4 at the same time as Stuart Craig and Val managed a 5-all draw with Vince.

Croquet is best played in an upright position. Only rolls tend to move most good players away from this stance, which allows the best view of the line for a shot. In the attached photo Greg Whymark, from Bribie club, playing in the first division section of our recent tournament, abandons the normal and drops to the ground to line up an

important peel through rover. He made the peel and went on to win the game.

Thursday, November 19 saw pleasant conditions on the lawn. Kath Smith and Donna played a 7-all draw. Vince and Sarah were behind for most of their game against Ken and Val until, with stumps about to be drawn, Vince made a game winning break to take the presidential team ahead 18–17.

Well done Vince. Helen and Wallace scored 16 against Bev Sockhill and Janelle 7 with Wallace pegging out his ball.

Our excellent lawns are at the Maleny Showground.

Play days are on Thursdays and Sundays at 2pm for 2.30pm. Contact Sarah for other days.

Coaching is available on Saturdays at 8am.

For details contact president Sarah Widin on 0417 640 704, vice president Vince Carbery on 5494 2193, or secretary Priscilla Vickers on 5494 3555. www.rangecroquetatmaleny.org.au

Dangerous territory

A big school of tuna used to go right up to Cape York and spawn but now they only go as far as Townsville, do a U-turn and come back. They’re worried that if they go further north than Townsville they could end up in Cairns.

Identity crisis

I went to the doctor and told him: “Doc, I think I’m a moth”. The doc replied: “I think you need a psychiatrist.” I said: “Yeah, I thought so. I was on my way to see one and I saw your light on.”

Is it serious?

I used to have a Shetland pony and he developed a cough. The vet examined him and I asked: “Is it serious?”

The vet replied: “I don’t think so. I think he’s just a little hoarse.”

How’s your maths?

You enter a room. Two dogs, four horses, one giraffe and a duck are lying on the bed. Three chickens are flying over a chair. How many legs are on the ground?

The answer is 10.

For those of you who can’t work this one out …. You have 2 legs and both the bed and the chair have 4 legs so the total is 10.
