COVER - A ONE STOP SHOP FOR ALL YOUR FINANCIAL NEEDS The Mount Gambier & District Community Bank® has been building a strong reputation in the finance industry in this region over the best part of the past two decades. Turning 18 this year, the Mount Gambier branch is looking to continue to lift its profile, not only continuing to promote its retail banking services but the expertise it has in house in business banking and agribusiness. Branch manager Tracy Koop is flanked by business banking expert Lachlan Wookey, who has been part of the Mount Gambier & District Community Bank® team for the past 14 months, and agribusiness guru Simon O’Leary, who has been with the branch for three years. “We want the business community to know we offer competitive products,” Lachlan said. “We can take care of all their financial needs, from the smaller day to day to large loans and big picture decisions.” Lachlan comes with almost a decade of experience in the financial sector including six years with a major bank and holds a Bachelor of Commerce through Deakin University. The past three and a half years have been spent in commercial banking where he believes that the key is communication and making business personal. “I think being a local is a real strength,” Lachie said. “We understand what’s going on in this community, we understand what you need, and we are always accessible, either in branch or, more often than not, meeting you, at your convenience, on site.”
Simon brings 25 years of experience to Mount Gambier & District Community Bank® across South Australia, Northern Territory and New South Wales, having lived locally for 15 of those years. From livestock and mixed farming enterprises to irrigation, horticulture and viticulture sectors, Simon has a genuine passion for both finance and the agriculture sector. “From established and expanding operators to families who are wanting to transition to the next generation, we have the time and experience to add some form of value to assist with your business,” Simon said. “We look for ways and means to identify the best possible solutions to meet client needs and complement each other in an ever changing and sometimes challenging finance environment. We love getting out on farm so that we can understand and appreciate best, what clients experience. We tailor solutions for cashflow, equipment purchases, property purchases and also livestock purchases.” It makes the Mount Gambier & District Community Bank® a one stop shop for all your financial needs given its expertise in the retail, business and agribusiness sectors and given the bank pours up to 80 percent of its profits back into the local community, handing your financial future over to the Mount Gambier & District Community Bank® is a win-win for you and the community. “We are as competitive as anyone in the marketplace and the three different entities – retail, business and
agribusiness - all work together as one,” branch manager Tracy Koop said. “We have given $870,000 back to the local community to sporting clubs, local schools and through scholarships to individuals.” And Tracy, Lachie and Simon all love being part of this region, not just working in the community but getting involved in the many opportunities living in this region presents. “The South East has provided me with fantastic opportunities not only with banking & finance but the wider community also with sport and various community and business groups,” Simon said. So drop into the Mount Gambier & District Community Bank® to discuss your financial needs to day at 16 James Street, Mount Gambier or call (08)8726 3200 to make an appointment to meet with Tracy, Lachlan, Simon or any of the Mount Gambier & District Community Bank® team.

FINDING HER NICHE “This would be the best community I’ve been a part of in my life.” That’s the sentiment of artist Chrissy Pudney, as Mount Gambier looks set to be the place she will spend the most time in her life. The army wife spent her childhood in Queensland but since marrying has moved from posting to posting until now. “This is where we have chosen to make our home – this is where we will be forever,” Chrissy said. It is also the place where she finally took the plunge to pursue her dream of becoming an artist. It was back in 1983 when she first tried her hand at basket weaving and three years later, she started working with clay at a Puckapunyal craft club, and so the pattern continued. “It was my way of making friends and finding a social life each place we moved to,” Chrissy said. “I wasn’t a typical army wife, I had unusual interests. People used to say I was a square peg in a round hole. That I was born in the wrong century as I gravitated towards unusual interests. I was always seeking out the craft groups and things like that wherever we moved.” And pursuing those interests became much more of a full time mission once the couple moved to Mount Gambier in 2000 and by 2003, the textile and ceramic artist was enrolled at TAFE completing a Certificate IV in those disciplines. “I enjoyed my time studying at TAFE but I do feel I’ve learned a lot
more away from formal education,” Chrissy said. “Life experience and experimentation is what has improved my art.” She also credits her time working in administration at Riddoch Art Gallery as a pivotal time in her development as an artist, putting her into contact with two people who have significantly influenced her artistic career. She worked alongside long serving gallery director Lucia Pichler and the two forged a strong friendship based in their love of the arts. “I am still friends

with her today,” Chrissy said. It was also through the Riddoch Art Gallery that Chrissy was exposed to the work of Portland artist Carmel Wallace. “I was spoiled to be surrounded by her work while I was working there,” Chrissy said. “I often wondered how she created her work and then one day it twigged and it’s the sort of work I’ve tried to do myself.” Chrissy is a former member of the South East Art Society and is currently part of the Gallery 54 collective and the Limestone Coast art community has
certainly been part of her remaining committed to life as an artist. “It is certainly the most vibrant and supportive arts community I have been involved with,” Chrissy said. “There are more opportunities, people put in more effort and it’s across all the arts – not just the visual arts but the performing arts as well.” Chrissy’s new focus is sustainable art practice and the use of debris from beaches and materials found in the natural world – she is basically committed to using recyclable material wherever possible in her creations. “I’ve used recycled clay from TAFE and things I find in my garden or the bush,” she said. “I am very passionate about the environment and I have really tried to focus on the debris on our beaches – it just shouldn’t be there.” Chrissy realises she is in a privileged position. “I don’t have to work so I am lucky that I can pursue my art and don’t have to worry about selling things,” Chrissy said. It also gives her time to travel, which has long been an inspiration for her work. Outback Queensland is the plan for 2019, which Chrissy knows will test her commitment to sourcing material from her surrounds. Her most recent exhibition was, in fact, called Surroundings, as a homage to the inspiration for her works and the source of her material to create the pieces. That exhibition was in conjunction with Glenys Hughes – the pair have formed a partnership and every summer holidays they take over the foyer of the Port MacDonnell Community Complex with their latest

works. It was Chrissy who suggested the area be transformed into another art space, outside the complex’s gallery, and it has been a huge success, not just for Chrissy and Glenys’ exhibitions but many other exhibitions throughout the year. The duo is again set to open their new exhibition in December and in keeping with Chrissy’s sustainability mantra – it is entitled Waste Not and will only feature recycled materials. Chrissy also loves giving back and working with children or those with disabilities is what she treasures the most when running workshops. “They think outside the square and ask questions you wouldn’t have thought of,” Chrissy said. “They are also really good at retaining what you teach them.” Chrissy works mainly from home – her husband having surrendered half his shed as a makeshift studio. Having her annual exhibition to always be working towards, as well as other exhibitions along the way, including the regular Gallery 54 shows, and from time to time, art competitions, is what keeps Chrissy committed to working hard. “I do like to work to a deadline, to have something to aim for,” she said. “But I also like to be organised and the piece I entered in the Open Art Awards had been ready in the box for two months. I think it is a privilege to be able to exhibit in a gallery and you should show the gallery the respect by putting your best foot forward.” Chrissy won the top prize at the South East Art Society Open Art Awards.
FOODBANK WINDFALL Member for Barker Tony Pasin has announced $100,000 in Federal Government Funding to support Foodbank’s Limestone Coast Food Hub in Mount Gambier. The Limestone Coast Food Hub has distributed over 112,000kg of food equating to a quarter of a million meals worth $6200,00 in supermarket value since it’s opening in September 2017. In addition, the Hub provides a further 100,000kgs of food of which almost 40% is fresh fruit and veg, to local charities and community groups in the Limestone Coast to assist those in need. Over the past three years since the opening of the Food Hub in the warehouse, Foodbank has increased its distribution of food by more than 115%. This funding will be used to help purchase the facility from the current owners so Foodbank can expand the building, in particular, the cool room and freezer capacity to accommodate more fresh fruit, vegies and frozen products, including meat, and to help offset operating costs,by installing more solar panels.
COLLECTED STUPIDITY - IT’S A STUPID STUPID WORLD… By ROBBIE TANSEL
For all your custom printing needs!
Ph: 08 8724 7111
We live in a world that gets stupider by the day. There is no other conclusion to draw from what we observe in our day to day activities, what we observe in the media and the overwhelming evidence that we encounter in every facet of our lives. Knowing how stupid people already are, it’s scary to consider that they undoubtedly are becoming less intelligent. Consider a recent example where social media apps Instagram and Facebook crashed. How did people react to this occurrence? Obviously it was an emergency so they rang 000. Emergency services in South Australia and Queensland both posted messages (via Twitter obviously) advising that they knew Instagram and Facebook were down and not to call them. Surely this is the modern equivalent of telling a child not to stick a knife in the powerpoint. Quite clearly this shows the fact that some people don’t understand what constitutes an emergency. To clear this up, an emergency would be something that imminently threatens safety. Lack of access to pictures of people’s meals and attractive young ladies in up your bum bikinis, is not likely to lead to any danger of injury. Just as people don’t understand what an emergency is, I think there are now a large number of people who don’t understand what constitutes news. Watch the news or check out your favourite news website and enjoy extensive analysis of what is going on with Married At First Sight. Find out all about the kookaburra which was found caged up within a United States pet shop. What about the teacher who “stunned” the internet after wearing students’ work? This is not news. Have a good look at that last headline. They claim the internet was stunned. How do you decide if the internet is stunned. I’ll assume they’re not referring to the actual cable and servers and software that constitutes the internet; they’re talking about people who use the internet. I don’t remember being stunned. I don’t recall walking past people staring in shocked wonder at their computer monitors over the last couple of weeks. Put your hand up if you were stunned when you heard about the woman wearing her students’ work. I actually thought that’s exactly the sort of thing a teacher would do. Teachers are unique and unusual creatures. We’ve clearly disproved survival of the fittest and evolution as plausible theories in our modern world. In fact it seems blatantly obvious that the stupidest most moronic members of our society seem to be multiplying exponentially and intelligent reasonable people are actually endangered species. I’ve already highlighted recently that something as simple as ensuring all lifestyle1.net | 06
the correct fast food order items are bagged is consistently stuffed up. There couldn’t be much more of a basic (but vitally important task) so if that can’t be achieved successfully, what hope do we have of curing cancer? You’d think that our leaders should be the best of the best, and maybe they might be a beacon of hope for a brighter future. Surely there’s some intelligence in the halls of our parliaments? I challenge you to name one politician who seems intelligent. Let’s try and forget that they’re completely spineless and don’t stand for anything other than what they think will be popular at a point in time. Have you heard a politician present a new concept or idea recently that had any value? There just doesn’t seem to be one of them who you’d want on your team for a quiz night. I think it all comes back to us as a society and what we value. Guys with big muscles and tattoos chasing, kicking and catching inflated leather. Vapid empty headed (but nice to look at women) who have no discernible talent. Staring at screens. This is where we find our heroes and examples of how to live our lives. This is not the golden era of thinking. The bar has been set low. Let me present one more statistic to prove my point. In 1998 the Collingwood Football Club had 27,000 members. In 2008 there were 42000 members and in 2018 there were 75,000. That’s nearly 50,000 more stupid people in only one tiny section of the world in twenty years. That’s scary. Be careful out there people. It’s a stupid, stupid world. If you’d like to report a stupid related emergency, I think it would be perfectly legitimate to call 000 because this is an emergency, but even better to email me at robbietansel@gmail.com and we can work on this together.

Bec Tracey has been overwhlemend by the support she received after a spur of the moment decision to take part in the World’s Greatest Shave saw her raise more than $1000 with donations still rolling in. Bec used facebook to garner the support of a local hairdresser and Tonia Locker, from the Cutting Crew, answered the call. That was six weeks ago and Bec has had a whirlwind few weeks, raising funds and then finally losing her locks for the Leukaemia Foundation. Bec has received donations throughher fundraising page, as well as four donations tins placed at Mount Glass and Glazing, The Cutting Crew, the FACT shop and Foodworks. “I decided to take part in the World’s Greatest Shave as I really enjoy doing my part in the community,” Bec said. “I thought about all the positive things about shaving my hair off and all the
people who have leukaemia that really need these raised funds. My main highlight from this experience was the amount of support I got from friends, family, teachers from school and people I didn’t even know.” Bec had an initial fundraising target of $200 biut blew that and her own expectations out of the water with the current tally sitting at $1109. “I highly recommend anyone who wants to raise money for a charity, to consider shaving or colouring their hair for the Leukaemia Foundation,” Bec said. “I would encourage people who decide to take part, to reach out to friends and family because you will not regret it and you’ll be raising money for an amazing foundation at the same time.” There is still time to donate simply by heading to my.leukaemiafoundation. org.au/bectracey
Grant High School had the privilege of a brief visit from the Governor of South Australia the Honourable Hieu Van Le AC. Having delivered a gift to the school’s sister school Soja Minami in the Prefecture of Okayama, in Japan, on behalf of the Grant High School community, the governor was returning the favour, handing over a return gift. His Excellency spoke to a group of students who are intending on visiting Japan on a cultural exchange, along with two overseas exchange students currently studying at Grant High School and the two school captains. He also got a glimpse of the artwork being worked on by students, depicting the Craitbul Dreaming, for the heritage Blue Lake pumping station, which has been commissioned by SA Water. The students are working with Aunty Michelle Jaqueline-Furr and Belinda Bonney to create the work in conjunction with three other schools in the region.

Member for Barker Tony Pasin has announced a $400,000 funding windfall for the Millicent Parkland Redevelopment project. The development of the Domain precinct into a vibrant community open space has been strategically planned by the Wattle Range Council as a major economic and social activation project, linking established walking running and cycling trails and giving healthy lifestyle choices to a wide range of age groups. The $640,000 redevelopment will involve three main areas: -the rage cage, nature play area and domain playground, as well as solar lighting, surveillance cameras and landscaping, including shade and shelter and bench seating.
“This is a significant project for the Millicent community and I’m pleased that I can help deliver funding to get it moving and see the plans become a reality sooner,” Mr Pasin said. “The council has done a wonderful job in planning what will really bring community together by creating a vibrant open space that the whole community can benefit from.” The funding will be delivered to the Wattle Range Council through the Federal Government’s Community Development Grant fund.

NEW CITY CHIEF APPOINTED Rural City of Murray Bridge General Manager for Sustainable Communities Andrew Meddle has been appointed as the new City of Mount Gambier CEO. Andrew has an Honours degree in Countryside Planning and a joint Masters degree in Urban Planning and Transport Planning, in addition to a Diploma in Countryside Management and professional qualifications in environmental impact assessment and project management. Andrew is originally from the United Kingdom, where he held senior roles in central, regional and local government in the south and east before migrating to Australia in 2012. He began in his current position as General Manager Sustainable Communities at Murray Bridge in January 2013. In this role he is responsible for delivering the Council’s community services (including the regional art gallery, theatre and library), development and regulation services and for Lerwin, the Council’s 75 bed residential aged care facility. Andrew indicated that the lifestyle, location and scenery on offer in Mount Gambier was a drawcard for his interest in Council’s top job. “I’ve been looking for a CEO position within a provincial city for a while and we’d been on holiday in the region and knew that we liked it, so it was a great opportunity,” Andrew said. Andrew said he is looking forward to making a difference within the local community and in particular, working on the delivery of the Mount Gambier Community and Recreation Hub project. “I want to build a team that learns from the experience of this project and applies it to other projects and the delivery of services to the community in general,” he said. City of Mount Gambier Mayor Lynette Martin said Andrew had significant experience in working and engaging with communities to deliver joint aspirations and experience in managing resources efficiently to ensure sustainable performance. “He will see our city with fresh eyes and we look forward to welcoming him into our community,” Maypor Martin said. Andrew’s wife Karen and 13 year old daughter Charlotte will join him in Mount Gambier later this year. The appointment follows the retirement of former CEO Mark McShane in February. Interim CEO Graeme Maxwell will cover the position until Andrew begins in the role on May 27.

LOOKING AFTER YOUR HEALTH & FITNESS FOR 30 YEARS It is a family based business success story that started 30 years ago with five indoor tennis courts. In April 1989 it was known as the Blue Lake Indoor Tennis Centre and in the past three decades it has adapted, developed and expanded to be one of the region’s leading fitness and sports centres offering a diverse range of activities – Active8 Health & Sports Centre, the name it took in 2005 after one of its biggest makeovers. Current owner manager Tara Mullen has worked at the family operation for 20 of those years, with other long serving staff members – Julie Howe, who started the fitness classes at the centre, and Carolyn Gazzard, who is the longest serving personal trainer and gym instructor – still working side by side with the centre’s membership. And it’s a loyal membership with some members having been part of the Active8 family since it opened its doors 30 years ago and more than half the current membership having racked up 10 years or more at the Penola Road facility. “We’ve still got some of our original members, which is just amazing,” Tara said. “And it is a real family centre, with generations of families coming here – we have seen grandmothers, daughters and their daughters all coming her for sport or fitness – or both.” Back when it was a pure tennis
centre, around 30 teams called the centre home – now tennis is a smaller percentage of the business but there is more than 30 netball teams and a raft of other team sports, including volleyball, soccer, hockey and football that utilise the indoor venue. “It is a real multi-sport centre now,” Tara said. “From the sports side of things to the fitness, we have always tried to give the members what they want. Fitness is definitely way bigger now than it was when we first opened. Health and fitness seems to be top of everyone’s mind nowadays.” The early beginnings of the centre will be honoured as part of the 30 year celebrations with a Men’s Tennis
JUNIOR
Reunion on Sunday, April 28, at 11am, and a Ladies Tennis reunion on Thursday, May 1, at 12noon. Those events are open to anyone who has picked up a racquet at the centre in the past 30 years. And there are plenty of other 30 year anniversary offers for members and newcomers alike (see advert opp. page). From fitness classes for over 60s, which continue to build in popularity, to the cardio studio, from the weights room to the new inflatable Jumpzone, from the Mums & Bubs classes to group fitness, and the introduction of the centre’s newest fitness program, Gravity Pilates, a more gentle but effective program – there really is
something for everyone. The newly introduced Jumpzone, which is an inflatable playground for children aged 4-14, has been a huge success, and one of those innovations at Active8 that came about because so many of their members had young families and were looking for active, indoor activities. The centre has also added after hours access for its members, to allow more flexibility, opening from 5am to 11pm. “We do try and cater for everyone,” Tara said. “For people really looking to challenge themselves and for those just trying to keep active and stay in shape.” The centre’s Challenges continue to be popular, as does the personal

GALLERY 54 UNVEILS NEW EXHIBITION A new life drawing exhibition has been unveiled at Penola’s Gallery 54 and will be on show at the Church Street gallery until May 13.

Using different mediums, including charcoal, pencil and pastel, the artists have expressed the human figure in their own distinctive style. The exhibition was opened by guest speaker, artist and teacher April Hague. Exhibiting artists include April Hague, Dagny Strand, Diana Wiseman, Ann Carpenter, Anne Miles, Stephanie Yoannidis, Ron Pollock, Jennie Matthews, Sally O’Connor, Kristie Williams, Jane van Eeten, Jenni Elmes, Peta Cassan, Angela Hann.

IN THE GARDEN With Autumn firmly in our grip and nice cool morning with us, it’s time to take a sigh of relief in the hope that the hot weather is past us now. This Sunday sees the biggest Rose Open Day in Mount Gambier with huge half price Roses at Limestone Coast Roses, in Mount Gambier, also last chances to order 2019 new release roses and find out about all the new releases and the early bird pricing on them. Located at 167, Bay Road , at the foot of Mount Gambier’s iconic Blue Lake, the nursery is located within the well established Gardenarium Nursery, of which Limestone Coast Roses is a sister company. Autumn is a great time for planting roses, as the soil is still warm from summer, allowing the plants to transition in from their pots and settle before the cold of winter. You purchase a year older rose, at half the price of those available, and they also have a more established branching structure and maturity rather than a young thin plant in winter. In addition you can see the roses in full bloom and see the real colour of the roses. April is going to be a great month for gardening , with the Easter long weekend being a great time to get in the garden and plant some roses
By Calum Haygarth Landscape Architect & Horticultural Consultant followed by the Anzac Day holiday mid week which maybe an opportunity to reflect and plant one of the many roses of Remberance, including the Gallipoli Rose, We will Remember Them, Veterans Honour and the many more associated with Anzacs. The proceeds from the sale of the charity roses will go to our diggers and also restoration and upkeep of the Australian War Graves at Villeurs Brettoneux, in France. The massive rose spectacular will commence at 10am and go right through until 5pm, so be braced for some amazing bargains across Limestone Coast Rose (see facing page). Many bush roses will be half price, with standard roses in several sizes, weeping standard roses, Delbard French Roses and, of course, David Austin’s perfumed English roses, that thrive so well in our climate. Also, if you missed the 2018 new release roses such as the very popular Sugar Moon and Unconventional Lady, which was chosen to raise funds 2021 World Rose Convention to be held in Adelaide, it certainly is a remarkable rose and may even be a great gift idea for an unconventional lady in your life. If you wish to do some research before calling in to the Rose Day then you can go to www.limestonecoastroses. com.au and have a look at the massive
range we grow. Being one of the largest suppliers of roses within Australia, not many people know what goes on behind the scenes from the Limestone Coast and we are great ambassadors for Brand SA sending most of our roses to southern Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and, of course, South Australia, especially around the Adelaide region where it is now so hard to find a good range of roses. For this reason all of the 2019 new release roses are on our website already with the 2019 new release charity roses or roses for a cause placed in their respective categories or about to be added by the time this goes to print, a timely reminder to get your rose orders in for new season’s dormant (bare rooted ) stock that can be ordered online at any time or take advantage of the Early Bird Specials (see facing page) that will be offered on Sunday only for the 2019 new releases ,or ring your order through. The two new David Austin English Roses for 2019 are Olivia Rose, one that has been long awaited by Austin fans in Australia, as it was released in the UK some years ago, to much acclaim, its pure pink blooms have great appeal on the bush which is laden with flowers and it has the most stunning tea fragrance (see opposite page). There is also the The Poets Wife named of course as so many David Austins roses are after Shakespeare, Poets and the like. A new golden yellow introduction to the range which hasn’t seen a new yellow in many years. As with all Austins this is very highly perfumed with a hint of citrus. It is important to order early as our website (www.limestonecoastroses.com.au) has been receiving online orders since last
November for interstate and local orders and many varieties are already close to being sold out. Winx will grab all the attention this year with no stopping this amazing offspring of Black Caviar and having just won another race as I type this edition of In the Garden. Cut flower enthusiasts will love the long stem and highly, musky perfumed crisp white blooms, fit for any wedding bouquet, as will the South Australian Country Women’s Association release ,celebrating their 90th Birthday, and funds raised from the sale will support programs that support Rural Aid for farmers across Australia. SACWA Rose is a rich, dark velvety red with sweet perfume and are rain resistant and therefore long lasting on the bush or as a cut flower. One of my favourites for this year is Dear Father, a bush smothered in rich red blooms with ruffled edges. Its mass flowering is hard to beat against lush green foliage and is perfect in a pot or for hedging and mass planting also. Great gift idea for dads or as a memorial to fathers. Love Song is a new large cluster flowered rose in shades of lavender to lilac and strongly fragrant and will be popular with lovers of the Rose Angel Face which can be a bit tempremantal. A tall bush, with fast repeat flowering synonomous with the
modern breeds of roses we have seen over the past 20 years or so. Ideal in pots also. Make it your Love Song for someone special or for Elton John fans. A Daughter’s Gift has sort of had a re-release for us as it didn’t really get off the ground when it was released by us a few years ago, as we could not get grafting material to get any great numbers. Now we have good stocks and it has been our largest ordered variety for this season only slightly beating Winx for top spot, of course all that could change by the time the rose orders close in a few weeks time as we run down into digging all of these lovely roses from the paddock. If you are looking for hot colours then you cant go past Ketchup & Mustard, an interesting name similar to the new food condiment that has the two in the one bottle. Not my cup of tea but fortunately the rose is a stunner. Glamourpuss, too, will delight lovers of striped roses which have become so popular in recent times, yellow and red stripes with pink and cream stripes with a zesty citrus fragrance has given this top spot on our sales list for 2019 in the striped rose orders even beating the like of Red Intuition which seems old hat these days. Whatever your preference in the 2019 new releases be sure to get in and order early as orders have been open at Limestone Coast Roses since November 1 last year and many local people miss out to the online orders we receive from interstate. Limestone Coast Roses is located within Gardenarium Nursery at 167, Bay Road Mount Gambier just 1.3 kms south of the Blue lake on the Riddoch Highway (B66) and and is an easy drive from Western Victoria as well as all areas of the Limestone Coast. Look forward to seeing you on Sunday.
A NEW ERA IN EDUCATION The changing face of education means our education facilities also need to develop their learning spaces and Grant High School unveiled its new $2.5million hub last week. The STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) Maker Space, which is a major part of the new hub space, was officially opened by Member for Mount Gambier Troy Bell, who was representing the South Australian Education Minister John Gardner, who was unable to attend. Project partners Dycer Constructions, represented by Cath Dycer, and Grieve, Gillett and Andersen Architects, represented by David McLeod also assisted with the official ribbon cutting ceremony. The State Government funded project was financed under the former Labor Government and the space has already been well utilised by a raft of students and staff across a variety of subjects. “It certainly is a new STEM space but the new hub is basically about more flexible learning spaces to use for multi purposes,” principal Fleur Roachock. lifestyle1.net | 26
“The Breakfast Club uses the space and the Homework Club, which also uses the space, is massive. There is a lot more room for students to collaborate with each other and the teachers.” It is also the perfect space for classroom projects that are not suited to the traditional classroom – a recent English class that was studying the Bridge of Terabithia, was able to transform the space into a 3-D fantasy world with their dioramas. “It is even a more inviting space since we removed the walls as it has made it such a light space to work in,” Mrs Roachock said. “The booths have been very popular, allowing students to work quietly in groups in a private space.” A
multimedia lab is also part of the new space, housing the photography and film making aspirations for students and special option students have also been gifted a new space with a sensory room. In a world where more individualised learning plans are favoured, the new space is part of implementing those values. “Grant High is really focussed on each young person and delivering the best education for their chosen pathway,” Mrs Roachock said. “We are always trying to respond to what those needs are and part of that is encouraging young people to think outside their year level and pursue subjects related to their passion.” And the new hub is just the tip of the iceberg for upgrades at Grant High School. The transition to being Year 7 ready when South Australia adopts the national model of Year levels will see a $7million dollar upgrade that is being currently in the planning stages.

WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE FOR SUTTONTOWN It was all about celebrating the past last month at Suttontown Primary School as past and present staff and students and their families celebrated the school’s 150th anniversary. The March 22 celebrations were a throwback to the school’s beginnings, complete with an appearance from longest serving principal Mr Haddy (Glen Tilley in disguise), who was principal from 1883-1922, to run the school assembly. Staff and students were decked out in period costume as old fashioned games and school rituals of times gone by took centre stage. Staff and students also made the trek to and from the Suttontown Chapel, which was once the site of the school. The strains of God Save The Queen rang out from assembly and the students recited the Ode to Allegiance as the current school population paid homage to how things were for the pioneers who established and developed the 150 year old educational institution. From marbles to riding in a horse and cart, from elastics to careful handwriting lessons, the school was a snapshot of the 19th century. A time capsule, that was buried in 1993 at a
100 year school reunion was opened and an anniversary cake was enjoyed. The March 23 celebrations still had walks down memory lane but also included school tours by current students and a glimpse into what the school is doing today and going forward. The photographic displays and memorabilia in the school gym were a highlight, after months of work collating and sourcing the information, while a school history book, compiled and created by Glen Tilley and a school cookbook, the seventh edition of the recipe collection, were also launched as part of the anniversary event. Five murals, that have been a work in progress with artist in residence John lifestyle1.net | 28
Whitney and the staff and students, were also unveiled. Visitors travelled from Western Australia, Townsville, Byron Bay and Mildura to attend, as well as great support from the local community. The weekend concluded with a dinner at Commodore on the Park.

Mixed fortunes for the Pioneers at the weekend, when they hosted Norwood at the Icehouse, with the women holding on for a narrow four point victory and the men going down in a tense overtime battle. Cold from the perimeter, the Pioneers women got the better of the scoreboard in the paint and converted at a healthy 46 percent from the floor, led again by skipper Amanda Frost, who finished with a game high 23 points, adding to her four rebounds and four assists. The victory marked the debut of newly signed import Pachis Roberts, for the home side, who finished with 15 points, nine rebounds and six assists in a promising debut outing for the Pioneers, playing almost the full game time and bringing another physical presence to the line-up. “She (Roberts) was missing a bit of match fitness – she hasn’t played a full game since December but she fitted in perfectly,” head coach Matt Sutton said. “She is unselfish and strong at the hoop.” Frost was critical again as well. “It’s not just her shooting, she controls the ball, does a lot at both ends and is the vocal leader on the court.” Melissa Russell and Emily Winter continue to be consistent performers with solid numbers and good leadership on court, while Maddy Wormald and Olivia Wormald are also becoming key pieces in the puzzle as the newly formed women’s line-up continues to find its feet in the Premier League competition. Teenager Emily Dawe also continues to make the most of her limited minutes with her tenacious defence and scrapping abilities. The women led by as many as 15 points during the contest with their ability to score off the turnover and also use their pace for some easy fast break scores other key areas where the home side dominated. “Going into the season we re unproven at this level, making us quite dangerous in the first round of games,” Sutton said. “We weren’t sure how it would go but after the practice games and first round we realised we could be competitive and we were just missing a piece and hopefully that piece is Pachis (Roberts).” The Pioneers men looked to have broken their game with the Flames open with a dominant third quarter where the home side scored 27-15 to take a 10 point lead into the final stanza. That was by no means a winning lead but the momentum shift in the contest was palpable and all pointing to a typical strong final quarter onslaught. But the Flames had other ideas, forcing the game into overtime when star US import James Legan scored 15 of Norwood’s 20 points to see the Flames secure a 10 point victory. Legan was hitting shots falling out of court and with some strong Pioneers defence but he was on fire and his game high 42 points was critical. Kentrell Barkley announced he’s arrived and showed exactly why head coach Richard Hill was so keen to sign the US player. He hit a season high 40 points, pulled in 16 rebounds and had the crowd on their feet with a stunning dunk that had to be seen to be believed. It was a match full of niggle with plenty of heated exchanges and in the end, the Pioneers would rue getting involved in the Flames’ byplay, rather than just attacking lifestyle1.net | 31
QUESTIONABLE BEHAVIOUR The ugly side of sport revealed itself in a recent cricket twenty20 IPL match with Indian bowler (& team captain) Ravi Ashwin pulling up in his delivery stride to ‘mankad’ dangerous batsman Jos Buttler to help secure a win. Must be a lot of money and pressure involved to perform such an unsportsmanlike action. English cricket legend Darren Gough summed up the feelings of many calling on Ashwin to be sacked as captain of Punjab, “I would rather lose than do what Ashwin did, I really would,” Gough said. In another IPL match Indian Ishant Sharma had to be pulled away by a teammate after a Shane Watson sledge appeared to get under his skin during a heated mid-pitch confrontation.

While on questionable behaviour controversial UFC fighter Conor McGregor has announced his retirement. McGregor’s last fight in the octagon back in October 2018 resulted in a heavy defeat at the hands of Khabib Nurmagomedov, the current UFC lightweight champ. But the bout is as much remembered for what happened after the fight when Nurmagomedov jumped into the crowd and attacked McGregor’s training partner Dillon Danis, later alleging that Danis made religious slurs against him.
LUCK STILL PLAYS A PART The start of the AFL season quickly reminded me that, no matter how well a team prepares they still need luck on their side to compete. Look no further than Richmond who was in back to back weeks has seen their premiership chances hurt by the long term losses of firstly five time all Australian defender Alex Rance and then multiple league leading goal kicker Jack Riewoldt. Clubs try to adopt the ‘next man up’ policy but some players are irreplaceable.

WINDFALL FOR SAINTS Member for Barker Tony Pasin has announced $200,000 in Federal Government Funding that will support the rebuild of the Nangwarry Football Clubrooms. “The devastating fire that saw the Nangwarry clubrooms destroyed saw the club left without a home,” Mr Pasin said. “The club and its 54 year history really is the heart of the Nangwarry community and I think I speak for everyone in the South East when saying I want to see it rebuilt as quickly as possible. That’s why I approached the Prime Minister to advocate for funding to help with the rebuild, and deliver that funding, fully budgeted, before we go into election mode. I’m thrilled that my advocacy has been successful and this funding will rollout, guaranteed, before the Government goes into caretaker mode.” The funding will be delivered to the Nangwarry Football Club through the Federal Government’s Community Development Grant fund.
Adelaide based cyclist Angus Maddern, who learned his trade in Mount Gambier, returned to the region for the weekend and headed to Victoria as part of the Mount Gambier Cycling Club contingent contesting race three of the South West Series – the Doug Pettingill Memroial Hamilton to Port Fairy race. The 84km journey was a testing one, with Maddern (above right) tasting victory. The other three senior Mount Gambier club riders – Spek Peake, Sean Angus and Matthew Opperman, found the going a little tougher in the gusty winds. Great results in the juniors, though, with Freya Miller, who was riding in the Under 11/13 category taking her first ever line honours in a road race, in what was only her third attempt on the road as a competitive rider. Freya (pictured above left crossing the finish line) launched her solo attack with kilometres to go in the race to secure line honours ahead of rival Asha Graham. Freya is now placed equal first on the South West Series leaderboard with Molly Opperman, who is also racing well, sitting sixth. The under Under 15/17 category saw Jessica McLaren, from the Hamilton Cycling Club, hold out her much stronger competition, with Harry Opperman finishing just outside the major placings, and Cadel Howie (fastest time) and Jono Taynton rounding out the podium.

MORE SUCCESS FOR ANGUS MADDERN Adelaide based Mount Gambier cyclist Angus Maddern returned to th region in style with a win of the latest round of the Mount Gambier Cycling Club ‘s Summer Series. Maddern (pictured) finished the race a blistering first with an average speed of 43 kmh, with newcomer Josh Waters holding on to second and regular scratch rider, Sean Angus showing consistent form with a close third. This was a back to back win for Angus Maddern with a victory on Saturday in the Hamilton to Port Fairy Doug Pettingill Memorial 80km race, which is part of the South West series.

LOCAL SPORT MAGPIES STILL THE TEAM TO BEAT
Kalangadoo Netball Club has not only built a proud and unrivalled tradition of success, it has also been a family club, with multi generations of some of the club’s most long serving families playing side by side. Nothing about the 2019 lineup for the reigning champions suggest anything will change on that front. While Sarah and Jazzy Croser have moved away and sisters Leah Ousey and Narelle Ryan have hung up the sandshoes, the club has managed to boost its stocks with the return of Lauren Duncan, from Western Border duties over the past few seasons, and Ebony McDiarmid, from, most recently, Glencoe, who has been playing football with the Kalangadoo girls and has decided to be a Magpie in netball season as well. Lauren Duncan joins sisters Abbey and Georgia – the first time all three will have played in the same team, although Abbey and Lauren have joined forces before at the Magpies for premiership success. Ironically both the new recruits, who have spent most of their netball careers playing other roles – Lauren in the mid court and Ebony in goals – look set to be the new look Magpies defensive combination, with Jayde Peacock leading the mid court and Abbey Duncan and Melissa Russell still on hand in the shooting circle. And while the two older Croser siblings might have flown the coop, younger sister Chelsea is the junior most likely to get a taste of A Grade action in 2019. Last season’s runners-up Tantanoola look set to again challenge, despite the Tigers also facing player personnel changes with Olivia Fuller heading off to university and a pregnant Kate Varcoe. Fortunately the core group that really gave the 2018 title a shake remains, with Emma Gould and Jami Walker in goals, Casey Walker and Victoria Lucas patrolling the mid court and Kate Bromley and Simone Little getting the job done at
the defensive end. The Tigers have been fortunate to add the speed and smarts of Kristy Neale to the mid court and also have promising juniors Brianna Scanlon and Georgia Clarke to call on if required. Hatherleigh is another side who has been knocking on the door of a successful premiership campaign and there are certainly some new challenging personnel changes fort he Eagles as well with Keston Green and Kelsey Wight not suiting up, robbing Hatherleigh of two quality players, as well as on court leaders. The return of Melissa McGrath certainly helps on that front, while Sarah Faulkner will conitnue her hard running through the mid court, Helen Hamilton will continue to be her tenacious best and Maddie Pulmer and Maddie Redman will hold up each end of the court – Pulmer taking the lead in the shooting circle and Redman, as always, the anchor of the defensive unit. The versatility of Lara McGregor will be critical, while Demi Smith and Cate Lepley are great role players. Young gun Lacey Haines could also find herself in senior company should the opportunity arise. Not too many clubs could lose their two starting goalers from the previous couple of seasons and still look like a genuine threat but that is what Glencoe has managed to achieve. With Chantelle Cocks pregnant and Ebony McDiarmid now a Magpie, Glencoe has been able to recruit sharp shooter Malinda Markiewicz, and look to send experienced campaigner and premiership goalie Jenna Paproth back to the shooting circle. The defensive end remains stable with Caitlin Liebich and Sarah Edwards, while the mid court has the injection of talent and experience of sisters Donna Jaeschke and Ashlea Edwards, with April Von Duve and Jordy Jones adding plenty of pace and tenacity to the centre court roles. Nothing
suggests the Murphies won’t still be serious finals contenders, especially given Liebich and Paproth can swap roles and Jaeschke could also hold down a defensive role. The big movers of 2019 could well be Port MacDonnell after a disappointing 2018 the club would be keen to quickly rectify. Sophie Roach is back in permanent action, with Marie Lewis, Kirby Carrison, Ash Allen (Heald) and Lisa McGregor also returning to the court after a hiatus. Add to that reigning A Reserve and former A Grade association best & fairest Toni-Lee Gilmore and all of a sudden, the Demons look a quality, experienced and versatile line-up. They have lost Steph Taylor and Darcie Kuhl from the 2018 team but with Jess Trench, who showed great consistency last season, remaining and Megan Hein still part of the Demons plans, Port MacDonnell should again be a force to be reckoned with and should be staking a claim for a return to finals action. Kongorong has been hit hard with departures in 2019 with Jessie Little, Kaylah Earl, Sam Loughhead and Roxy Gibson all no longer Hawks but the pick up of former North Gambier goaler Renee Henke will add some part to the attack line, while Brittany McEvoy remains the star around which the Hawks will build, whether she stays in the shooting circle or looks to sure up the defensive end. Ashleigh Sturges, Shannon Scheidl, Emma Rathjen, Sarah Eustace and Georgia Bald are all hard working players who can play multiple roles, while young gun Emily Lightbody will bring some athleticism to the defensive end and Sarah Lucas will be critical as an on court leader. Robe has also suffered its share of losses with Kim Ross, who is only coaching the 2019 Roosters, Sarah Laurie, Georgia Hunter and Laura Hawkins not playing at the seaside this season, but with talented youngsters including Halle Carter and Tara Nicolle at the club, there is certainly plenty of talent to step into the top line-up. Georgia Perkins’ return will be critical in support of on court experience of Alannah Campbell, Camille Tucker, Lucy Perkins and Kimberly Austin, while the return
lifestyle1.net | 33
of Ash Hunt is also a boost. Robe has also picked up Annie Hunter from Naracoorte in what looms as another tough season. Mt Burr has been able to keep the majority of its talented young group together but has made a change at the top with Nadine Long taking the coaching reins. The return of Heidi Clark is huge for the Mossies as she teams with young guns Laura Schultz, Ebony Clark, Sophie Wallis and Layla Baker. Hayley Agnew is the rock around which this side has been built for many a season, while Anne Guyett is arguably one of the most consistent defenders in the competition, while new youngster Lucy Corman will only add to the speed and versatility of the young Mossies line-up. The loss of Malinda Markiewicz certainly doesn’t help Nangwarry and neither does the departure of Chloe Vaderhorst but the club is running with a large squad that has a mix of youth and experience. Michelle Richardson returns to Nangwarry after a long stint in the Mount Gambier Netball Association and she adds a physical presence and plenty of netball smarts to the group that still boasts the ever reliable Cassie Dinnison and hard working Carly Ploenges. Emmalee Stokker, Demi Gray and Tahlia Wilson bring some much needed height to the table, while teenager Hayley Vanderhorst will only get better as she enjoys another season in the top grade and Ebony Lawson, Hannah Coon, and Taysha James add some pace and determination to the mid court. The finals race looks a tougher fight in 2019 with five or six teams genuinely in the mix but the premiership race is the same - who can plot the demise of Kalangadoo. Above (from left) - Lauren Duncan (centre) has joined her sisters Georgia & Abbey back at Kalangadoo for 2019; key Tantanoola defender Kate Bromley; returning Port MacDonnell star Toni-Lee Gilmore and Glencoe utility & 2019 coach Jenna Paproth.

Tigers started off well scoring within the first 10 minutes, and had the bulk of play in their attacking half, but Redbacks defence made them work hard, and scoring was still hard to come by until the shackles were broken by striker Brooke Marcus, who had a stand out game scoring three, along with other striker Dana Jones, who bagged two goals. Redbacks managed to win a short corner and convert it thanks to an Angela Kain hit, but unfortunately for Redbacks this was their only shot on goal. Strengthened by the return of Olivia Turner, who also scored a goal herself, the Tigers midfield linked up very well for a round one match and showed why they are a Division One side. Kaitlyn Nisbet rounded out the scoring with a bullet short corner hit that Redbacks keeper Neave Delaney had no chance of reaching, despite Delaney having a good game and saving many shots for her side in their 1-7 loss. In the Division One Men’s match it was a rematch of last year’s grand final, with Tigers taking on West. First blood went to West, with Daniel Kestle scoring the first in open play. Tigers then converted a short corner, thanks to a deflected hit from Lochie Nisbet to even things up at quarter time. In the second quarter Tigers’ Connor Bartlett took advantage of a fast break, when the ball went end to end and he finished it off to take the lead for Tigers. West then had a goal disallowed in the third quarter for an incorrectly taken short corner, which spurred West on, but Greg Doll controlled the game from the back line for Tigers and true goal opportunities were hard to come back. Tigers then scored a further goal right on time, by Bartlett again, for final score 3-1.

A more even season with up to half a dozen teams genuinely challenging for the 2019 premiership – that is Mid South East Football League president Peter Mitchell’s hopes for the season ahead and also his genuine belief. The season kicks off this weekend on the back of the announcement that the Bendigo Bank Community® Bank Branches of the South East have signed a three year deal as major sponsors of the family league, meaning the Bendigo Bank now sponsors all three major Limestone Coast leagues. “It is great for us and it is what we are about as a league as well – the community, families,” Mitchell said. “I am sure this sponsorship deal will be a beneficial relationship for us and for them.” Robe & Districts Community Bank® branch manager Tracey Long was also excited about the new partnership. “Football is an important part of our rural communities and to be able to provide financial support at this level is something to be proud, and it’s all made possible by the power of local banking,” she said. The focus is very much what happens on the field now with the president predicting reigning premiers Robe, runners-up Mount Burr, and fellow finalists Kalangadoo and Hatherleigh will again be amongst the front runners, with big improvements expected from Glencoe, with star South and Penola key position player Brodie Foster, leading their list of new recruits, and Kongorong, who continues to develop the club’s young talent. Mitchell also touted Port MacDonnell as somewhat of an unknown but also one of those clubs that would be pushing hard for a return to finals. “Tantanoola looks to have lost more than they have gained but you would still expect them to be competitive and be not too far from the mark,” Mitchell said. And while Nangwarry looks to rebound from the loss of its clubrooms to fire, Mitchell says while the Saints should improve, wins will still be hard to come by for the competition clear dweller.

Barring injury, Mitchell has identified Hatherleigh as perhaps the biggest improver out of the 2018 top four. “I think they (Hatherleigh) will be better than last year and could end up in the top two,” he said. “Robe has lost a few nut have also picked up a couple and still have a good core group from their premiership team, while Mt Burr is always around the mark and Kalangadoo have a really stable list.” What the early signs show, though, is what every competition dreams of – an even, competitive season with a negligible gap between the haves and have nots. “It is much more exciting for everyone if there’s some uncertainty leading into the finals as to just who will make them,” Mitchell said. He was also looking forward to the Good Friday fixture between Robe and Tantanoola – a return to the fixture at the seaside, which was introduced in 2015 but has not been played for three seasons. “Credit to Tantanoola for putting their hand up to be involved,” Mitchell said. “And Robe have been great, continuing to push for the Good Friday game. I went back in 2015 and there was a great crowd and it was a great atmosphere so we would be expecting the same again this year. Robe has an influx of 10,000-12,000 over the Easter weekend and they are always looking for something to do.” Above - SANFL Football Operations Coordinator - South East, Michael Mourbey, MSEFL president Peter Mitchell & Robe & Districts Community Bank® branch manager Tracey Long.
