A world of unique treasures awaits Looking for a locally-made memento of your trip to the Fraser Coast or a unique gift to bring back to family and friends?

You can’t go any further than World Treasure Designs, a jewellery studio in Urangan focused on making jewellery with a difference.

Their exclusive designs are locally inspired and locally made, featuring Australian gemstones and sustainably sourced metals. Everything is carefully handcrafted, from design sketch to final stone setting, right here in their Hervey Bay workshop.

Inspired by the abundant marine life of our beautiful Fraser Coast, World Treasure’s unique Ocean Collection features humpback whales, dolphins, sea turtles, sharks, rays and more. Several of the designs feature Nala, Hervey Bay’s very own and much loved iconic humpback whale. Recognizable by her distinctive tail,

Nala has been sighted in the Bay for over 20 years now and her life journey is celebrated throughout the range of jewellery.

With three tradequalified jewellers, designers and specialty setters on premises, the workshop also specialises in custom handmade jewellery, special orders and jewellery and watch repairs.

A special commitment to the environment is shown through the use of recycled precious metals, ecofriendly packaging and their new solar-powered workshop.

A portion of every sale is donated towards environmental causes meaning your purchase helps to protect and preserve our beautiful planet for future generations.

This is jewellery you can feel good about wearing.

Located at 32 King St, near the Urangan pier, shop hours are Mon-Fri from 9:30 am - 4:00 pm and Saturdays from 9:30 am - 12:30 pm.

Our Local State MP retires Our sincere appreciation! from Ted & Jenny

There hasn’t been a day in my 26 years of public life, that I didn’t want to go to work. I am well aware of how lucky I have been to do something that I have enjoyed so much. I could not have done any of this without the loving support of my wife Jenny, and the people of Hervey Bay who returned me with trust, at each election. It really has been the most humbling experience. The most enjoyable aspect of my career , by far, was meeting and working with local volunteers and community groups, whose aim was to contribute to Hervey Bay’s growth and security. This of course started when I was a local councillor to mayor and state politician. I still remember when the land where the cinema complex is, on Boat Harbour Drive, was being cleared for shops. Now look at it today! I’ve seen a lot of changes to our great city and I’m proud that I have influenced some of that progress.

Developing communities do come with some significant

challenges and while the challenges in Hervey Bay have changed considerably in the last 30 years or so, there is always a need to progress and ‘be the best you can be’. My proudest achievements are often the ones you cannot see. They are the achievements of making sure someone’s life is a little better or easier, through improved support and infrastructure / services. These are the achievements I will hold close to my heart. Jenny and I really do look forward to having a break from the busy diary of commitments. A trip without a deadline, not having to get up and get going each and every day and replacing it with leisurely week days and week-ends, catching up with grandchildren and great grandchildren. Thanks to everyone for your continued support throughout my career.

We will see you around the Bay! Ted & Jenny Sorensen!

True Meaning of Christmas Once again it's Christmas Time, time for us to be, Busy wrapping presents and setting up the tree.

It seems we have so many things, to think of and to do, We may forget that Christmas, has a deeper meaning too.

A meaning that goes far beyond, the things the eye can see, Such as Holly wreaths, Mistletoe, and Gifts beneath the tree.

For these are only Symbols, of what happened Christmas morn, When in a little manger, GOD's only Son was born.

GOD put HIM here upon this Earth, with one idea in mind. To put New Hope around the World, and LOVE in all Mankind.

So even though we're busy, and have many things to do, Let's not forget that Christmas, has a deeper Meaning too. Eugene W. Miller

education

PUBLISHING

Attitude of excellence Xavier Catholic College opened in 2003 with 90 students in Year 8. In this short time Xavier has grown to a K-12 facility recognised throughout Wide Bay for its outstanding achievements across key areas of Academia, Vocational Education, Cultural activities and Sporting participation.

Xavier is a Jesuit Partner school owned and administered

by Brisbane Catholic Education. The college takes its name from St Francis Xavier, a Jesuit priest who evangelised Asia and the Pacific. Xavier College is a member of a world-wide network of over 2000 Jesuit Universities and Schools.

St Francis Xavier studied at the University of Paris where he met St Ignatius of Loyola and became one of the seven who founded the Society of Jesus (The Jesuits). The Jesuits believed that God was to be found in all things and that the world must be stayed in, not withdrawn from and that all human endeavour could be sanctified for the greater glory of God. The mission for the College is to provide a high quality education within the Catholic tradition where all are engaged in their learning, challenged to be better people and motivated to do their best.

Xavier College aims to assist the formation of thier students to become young men and women of competence, conscience, and compassion with an attitude of excellence and service.

A brief history of Fraser • Known for thousands of years as K’gari, or Paradise • Fraser Island located just south of the Great Barrier Reef.

• Fraser Island is about 120 kilometres long and ranges between 22 km at its widest point to 5 km wide.

• Captain James Cook first noted the island in 1770 and presumed it to be part of the main land and named it the Great Sandy Peninsula.

• Matthew Flinders came ashore over 200 years ago at Sandy Cape.

• Captain William Edwardson navigated the passage from Tin Can Bay to Hervey Bay determining that Great Sandy Peninsula was an Island.

• A new name was given to the island in 1836 after the survivors of a shipwreck of the Stirling Castle found their way ashore and the death for Captain J. Fraser.

• 1863 The first Kauri logs were punted to the mills at Maryborough and Dundathu.

• Red Satinay was used around the world, including sidings on the Suez Canel and the docks in London. It was also used locally on the Urangan Jetty, with the bark left intact for protection against marine borers.

• Marloo was shipwrecked on Orchid Beach in 1914.

• Maheno beached north of Happy Valley in 1935.

• A fine layer of decomposing vegetation seals the basins formed by the sand dunes and creates its many perched lakes some as much as 70 metres above sea level.

Roundabout quiz Who gives way at a roundabout?

Do you signal at roundabouts when?

$

$

Going Straight ahead. You can approach without signalling. But:

$

Some people think you should give way to vehicles approaching from the right on a roundabout, but:

Make sure you signal left as you exit and turn your indicator off after you've left the roundabout.

Turning left. Here's the way to do it.

Approach the roundabout in the left lane or line of traffic. Then:

Signal left as you approach the roundabout. Continue to signal left as you exit the roundabout and turn your indicator off after you've exited.

www.manofsteelcaravans.com.au Page 54. Hervey Bay & Fraser Island Tourist Guide No. 121.

Turning Right. Approach the roundabout in the right lane or line of traffic, then signal right as you approach the roundabout and continue to signal right until you're ready to exit. Then:

Signal left before you exit the roundabout. The same rule applies if you intend driving beyond the right turn exit.

That's not the rule. You must give way to any vehicles already on the roundabout before you enter. It doesn't matter if a car is on your left or on your right.
