City of Mount Gambier Manager Riddoch Arts and Cultural Centre Diana Warnes said council was committed to working with local artists to ensure individuals and collectives could continue to grow and create ambitious new work. “Applicants should remember that while developing new work is pivotal, the outcome – where and how the work may be experienced – is just as vital,” Ms Warnes said. Applications for funding should be for projects with a minimum total project cost of $3000. An allocation of $50,000 has been made in Council’s 2022/2023 budget for distribution in this annualProjectsprogram.mayfocus on but are not limited to, performing and visual arts, literature, film, design, multimedia, history and heritage, festivals, performances, and public celebrations.Previousrecipient Henry Wolff was able to develop and create ‘Lachrymal’, a multi-channel moving image, with the assistance of the 2021/2022 Creative Arts Fund.“The Creative Arts Fund supported me to develop ‘Lachrymal’, and engage with technology that I have aspired towards for multiple years,” Henry said.Enjoyed not only locally but on a national stage, ‘Lachrymal’ (pictured above) debuted at the

The forums also provided an opportunity to build awareness about the importance of healthy soils and how to capture carbon in Guidedsoil. by regional Landcare facilitators for the Limestone Coast Landscape Board, the students were able to compare the pH of different soil types. Moorak Primary School teacher Penne Paltridge attended the Mount Gambier session and was impressed with how the day was educational and fun. “The students were on task with each activity and really focussed in their learning. They especially like going up to the Lakes Complex and cutting and swabbing the woody weeds,” Ms Paltridge said.

Envinromental leaders program shines a spotlight on soil health & weeding
“It was great to work with a really enthusiastic group of students demonstrating the hands on weed control techniques we use, and they managed a sizeable impact in just one hour,” he said. “Educating and raising awareness on the scale and type of weeds in the Limestone Coast, and the effect they have on the environment is the key to protecting sites like the Crater Lakes.“The environmental leaders made a huge impact removing two truckloads of weeds that were competing with the native plants at both the Naracoorte Caves and the Crater Lakes sites.”
“The students were amazed with the amount of wild olive trees, which are weeds, growing in the area and are now keen to go back with their class mates to do the weed control again.”
Young Environmental Leaders from 21 primary schools across the region got together for the third time this year to broaden their knowledge of their landscape and make a positive impact to the health of our ecosystems. The Limestone Coast Landscape Board hosted 69 students across two days in Naracoorte and Mount Gambier as part of its Young Environmental Leaders Program (YELP).Thehighlights of the forums included landscape officers sharing their knowledge of pest plant and animal control and guiding the students in a weed removal session. Students removed two declared environmental weeds - boneseed and wild olives using the hand pull and ‘cut and swab’ technique. Senior landscape officer for the Limestone Coast Landscape Board Geoff Bowman highlighted the importance of the interactive learning days with the students.
Creative Arts Fund has also facilitated a number of locally created projects, including the Ripley Arcade mural by local artistic duo Ruth Stephenson and Pariya Ziakas (pictured left - Photos courtesy of Kate Hill). The guidelines and application form for the Creative Arts Fund are available at sa.gov.au/creativeartsfundwww.mountgambier.
Local artists, not-for-profit organisations and community groups can now apply for the 2022/2023 Creative Arts Fund to support the delivery of inspiring, creative and contemporary projects.

Rotary windfall for community it is playing in our community. The kitchen has been serving hot meals for 14 years and in the current circumstances,economictheirservices are needed more than ever before. At the moment they are serving about seventy meals each evening that they are open. Volunteers work at the kitchen each Monday and Wednesday from 4pm. The meals are cooked and packed and the kitchen opens for meals from 6 to 6.30pm. The kitchen needs to be upgraded to a commercial kitchen and one of the major items to be purchased is a commercial oven. This cost will be at least $15,000. Hopefully the money will be raised and the work will be done in January when the kitchen closes for a period. At the conclusion of the presentation, the club thanked Maree and Lorenza and donated $10,000 towards the new kitchen.
Members of the Rotary Club of Mount Gambier recently sought to release surplus funds built up through years of fundraising efforts towards charitable and service organisations in the community of Mount Gambier. The club recently made donations totalling $20,000 to two organisations - Boandik and the Sunset Kitchen. Boandik recently decommissioned a bus that became unreliable but as buses are used on a daily basis to support the residential homes and community clients, ensuring that their residents remain connected to the community and that their clients are supported to participate in their community groups program, a replacemnt was required. The cost of the new Mercedes Sprinter bus is $98,000. This bus is able to accommodate 11 people with better access and extra room for passengers and their mobility support items. The club asked then interim CEO Glenn Rappensberg (pictured above top with president Pat McEwen) to attend a meeting where he accepted a $10,000 donation and spoke about what Boandik is doing in the community along with a very informative insight into what the Federal Government is considering for aged care going forward. The Sunset Community Kitchen provides meals for disadvantaged members of our community on Monday and Wednesday evenings from the John Frew Centre, behind Hungry Jack’s, in Mount Gambier. Maree Thompson and Lorenza McMahon (pictured above bottom) from Sunset Community Kitchen gave an insight into the needs of the

Distinguished stained glass art historian, Dr Hughes OAM, and Dr Inglis AM, Honorary Fellow, Art History Program, University of Melbourne have co-curated this exhibition, working with Orval’s family to recreate his professional achievements and place him within the broader context of Australian Modernism. Hughes and Inglis will not only host the bus tour to local Orval windows in conjunction with the release of a new Orval Catalogue & Stained Glass Map, but also host a public forum on Hamilton Modernism from the 1960s. This is the first time in 60 years these works have been brought together in this fascinating reinterpretation of Orval’s original exhibition, on display until Sunday, October 30.

“... he has delivered some spectacular whale shots over the years which have been invaluable to DELWP’s team of researchers...” Cr Anita Rank (Glenelg Shire Mayor)
Legendary local photographer Allen McCauley has fittingly been drawn as the winner of this year’s ‘Spot, Log and Win’ Whale competition, naming the distinctively marked mammal ‘Nessar’ in a moving tribute a young local photographer and whale enthusiast who inspired Alan’s passion for capturing on camera passing whale migrations, the late Vanessa Reid. Mr McCauley officially logged his spotting of a whale through Whalemail, automatically entering him into Glenelg Shire’s Log Spot and Win competition. As well as the rights to name the whale – which he actually captured on camera earlier this year - he also receives a voucher for accommodation at Annesley Apartments and a three-course meal at Clock by the Bay. The annual Whale Watching competition is jointly coordinated by Glenelg Shire Council, Great Ocean Road Regional Tourism and DELWP.Thecompetition was devised to encourage whale watchers to log their sightings, assisting DELWP with their South East Australian Southern Right Whale Photo Identification Catalogue (SEA SRW PIC), and to encourage regional visitors to the spectacular Glenelg coastline. Glenelg Shire Mayor Cr Anita Rank said it was fitting that Allen win the competition this year after contributing so many photographs to the Identification Project over the“Allenyears.is well known for regularly capturing and sharing the unique beauty of our region through his lens, and he has delivered some spectacular whale shots over the years which have been invaluable to DELWP’s team of researchers,” sheCrsaid.Rank said whale watching continues to be a significant drawcard to Glenelg’s coastal communities over the winter months, and sightings this year have been strong. “Winter is the perfect time to get out and explore our spectacular coastline and spot a whale. Come for the day or extend your stay and explore the beauty and many attractions of Portland and surrounds in winter,” she said. Cr Rank thanked DELWP and Great Ocean Road Regional Tourism for partnering with Council on this initiative, as well as local businesses Annesley House and Clock by the Bay for donating the prize.

Substance Misuse Limestone Coast project officer Sophie Bourchier said it was time to remove the stigma, judgement and shame surrounding drug misuse and the impact of overdose.“Thereis a lot of shame attached to drug and alcohol issues so people don’t reach out for support,” Ms Bourchier said. “And we want to encourage families to reach out for support and not put blame and shame into that.” Ms Bourchier’s first port of call with change is language, especially in the media, eliminating the use of terms including junkie and not ‘sexing up’ the name of illicit drugs, including ice, but actually using the technical name for what are damaging substances.Sheisalso championing a change in how we view drug and alcohol addiction – it is an illness, often triggered by trauma. “When it comes to addiction we don’t want to talk about it but we will talk about someone with cancer or another serious illness,” she said. “Families just don’t feel comfortable to talk about it (addiction). We have to change the language we use talking about people who have a lived experience of drug and alcohol use. Language matters.”
ALCOHOL ISSUES: Substance Misuse Limestone
At its core, International Drug Overdose Day is about change – changing attitudes, changing language and changing the impact drug and alcohol misuse has in our Underlyingcommunity.thatcommitment
SUPPORTING
to meaningful change is also providing support for families and friends who have lost loved ones to overdose and that is why the Limestone Coast Drug Action Team and the Rotary Club of Mount Gambier West have joined forces for the second successive year to facilitate the International Overdose Awareness Day Vigil in MountStartingGambier.at5.30pm at the Cactus Garden at the Blue Lake, on August 31, attendees are invited to wear purple and either bring a candle or candle app to remember those who have lost their life to overdose, to support families and friends who have lost a loved one to overdose and to reduce the stigma at this special vigil.Sergeant
Jade Hill, Manager Crime Prevention said the impact of the 2021 event was so profound, it was incumbent on organisers to continue recognising the day and all it is looking to achieve. “It was a really special event last year,” Sgt Hill said. “It was the inaugural event and we want to continue to raise awareness, overdose is preventable and we also want to support those families that have suffered without stigma.”

Aside from facilitating the August 31 vigil, the Limestone Coast Drug Action Team is also working on a number of projects. It has recently produced a Limestone Coast Alcohol and Other Drug Safety Contact Card which outlines all the available hep and services on offer in this region and across South Australia.Thecards have been given to local police officers and anecdotal evidence is, it has already been well received. “The officers hand it out where they think it will be a good fit and they have had a lot of positive responses,” Sgt Hill said. The Limestone Coast Drug Action team has also been conducting a survey on establishing a Memory Tree in Mount Gambier to establish a place families and loved ones can go to honour those they have lost and that continues to eb a work in SAPOL’sprogress.drugdiversion initiative also plays a role, with adults and young people often identified as needing to be linked with the relevant services to prevent them going down a pathway that will result in more issues. “Especially in the youth justice system which is looking to allow young people to learn from their mistakes with second and sometimes third chances,” Sgt Hill said.She said it was important to remember many drug users were highly capable and functioning people with good careers, a home, belongings. And the vigil is about allowing people from the community with no exposure to drug and alcohol addiction to attend and learn more.Along with Ms Bourchier and Sgt Hill, Tim Brennan from Life Without barries and Ray Herbert, from the Rotary Club of Mount Gambier West will be guest speakers at the August 31 event.

“It is also important to highlight that addiction is not a life goal –people don’t set out to become addicts, it’s the result of a while range of “Withoutissues.services and education in the community it is difficult to get out of the cycle and we also need to make those services accessible.”Safetosay, there are not enough of those services at this stage, although the South Australian Government did have a $4.6million allocation for two drug and alcohol detox beds in the Mount Gambier Hospital. Ms Bourchier said the region was crying out for youth specific drug and alcohol workers and more funding for the education side of tackling drug and alcohol issues.
And that language matters message is one Ms Bourchier is also looking to get through to those in the inner circle of an addict. “I hear parents call up talkback radio and talk about ‘my addict’ and yet they would never say ‘my diabetic’ if they were talking about a diabetic child, they are just your child, they are not defined by their medical condition or issues,” she said. “Labelling is a shaming way to talk about people. I also understand that people don’t know what they don’t know and that is why education of the entire community when it comes to addiction is so important.
It is past time for meaningful change

Unfortunately, there has been a recent spike in the installation of shipping containers on land in the Wattle Range region without the required development approvals. “In some cases, people are simply placing them on their properties without knowing that it is unlawful development,” Wattle Range Council building officer Jake Turner said. “Shipping containers and Atco Huts are just like any other building and need to go through the same planning and building approval process.”Council becomes aware of unlawful developments in various ways, including anonymous reporting, routine property compliance inspections, or from

Keeping an eye on the future of the free little pantries
Funds on offer
Several community pantries in Portland have been hit repeatedly by vandals this winter, frustrating the school communities who look afterOverthem.the past two years, the pantries have been serving families and individuals who are struggling to put food on the table, and are utilised now more than ever with the cost of food becoming increasingly unaffordable. “It’s frustrating because in the past it always seemed somewhat random but now it’s been the same repeated thing happening,”
United Way Glenelg executive officer Nicole Carr said. “The plastic perspex is being punched out of the door, glass bottles of pasta sauce smashed on the ground and tin food opened and smeared over the pantry. “These small acts of vandalism are very disheartening. “It is left up to the schools to clean up the mess.” While United Way Glenelg and the schools have no intentions of closing the pantries, instead they’re approaching the community to help to curb the vandalism. “We’re asking neighbours or those driving past the pantries to report any suspicious or anti-social behaviour immediately to police,” Ms Carr “There’ssaid.agood chance a patrol car can go quickly to the area and deter behaviour leading to vandalism.”Community members are also being encouraged to assist with cleaning up the area, particularly over weekends and school holidays when the pantries cannot be monitored exclusively by the school.“Ifyou’re walking past the pantries take the time to clean any mess you see,” she said. “Even picking up an empty tin or broken glass will stop further damage from occurring. “There is less incentive for ongoing vandalism if they can see the pantries are being cared for.”
Parents and caregivers are also asked to talk to their children about the importance of the pantries and the consequences if the pantries could no longer provide food for vulnerable residents.“Thegood from the pantries well and truly outweighs the vandalism,” Ms Carr said.
conveyancer checks associated with transfer of property ownership. The maximum penalty for an unlawful development is $120,000. “Getting the right approvals ensures that development is appropriate for where it is proposed, constructed in a way that is safe and compliant with the Building Code and Australian Standards,” Wattle Range Council director development services Emma Clay said. “Council wants to ensure that the use of shipping containers does not detrimentally affect the quality and amenity of our local community.”Localresidents who are considering using a shipping container on their properties are strongly encouraged to contact the Ccouncil prior to purchasing. “We have a team of planners and builders who are happy to provide some preliminary advice about the planning process, if there will be any issues with zoning and where on the property a proposed shipping container can be situated,” Ms Clay said. “Getting this information at the start will avoid unnecessary headaches down the track, including possible enforcement action by the Council.”
Member for Barker, Tony Pasin is encouraging volunteer organisations in his electorate to apply to the 2022/23 Round of Families and Communities Volunteer Grants Program. “Volunteers are the lifeblood of our communities across Barker. From the local footy club to soup kitchens, op shops and men’s sheds, our communities are better places for the time our volunteers give to them,” Mr Pasin said. In Barker, a total pool of almost $70,000 has been made available through the program to support eligible not-for-profit community organisations to support the efforts of their volunteers. Grants of $1000 to $5000 will help volunteers and volunteer groups to buy small equipment, to reimburse volunteers for fuel, to assist with training costs or support promotional activities. “I am pleased to be able to support the terrific work that community groups do to support our local communities,” Mr Pasin said. “Together we are making them even better places to live, work and raise a family.”

Study and career opportunities were in the spotlight at Tenison Woods College earlier this month when students and their families attended the 2023 Pathways & CareersStudentsExpo.given wonderful opportunity to explore both Curriculum and Career offerings forThere2023 were more than 50 exhibitors from across South Australia, including universities and higher education facilities, employment agencies, local businesses, city-based student accommodation providers and the Tenison Woods College curriculum and learning area experts. The Pathways & Careers Expo was also an opportunity for Tenison Woods College to launch the 2023 Curriculum. Learning area coordinators were available to discuss their subjects and learning pathways, assisting students with their choices to best suit their learning journey. Some exciting new subjects were also launched on the evening including Agriculture, High Performance Dance Program, Exploring Identities & Futures, and Activating Identities & Futures. Agriculture is going to be delivered by well-known teacher Brad Maney, who worked in the agricultural industry prior, as well as having an extensive family background in Primary Industries. The High Performance Dance Program will be developed and taught by Samara Hough. Samara has more than 20 years of dance experience and has helped students thrive with their SACE results over the past six years. Exploring Identities & Futures is a Year 10 subject designed for students to understand who they are through the exploration of values, personality traits, interests and skills, leading to career exploration, work placement, and job search skill development. Activating Identities & Futures is a new SACE Subject, revitalising the Stage 2 Research Project, allowing students to take greater ownership and agency over their learning, as they select relevant strategies to explore, create and/or plan to progress an area of personal interest towards a learning output. Careers counsellor Jody Elliott said the expo was an outstanding opportunity for students to engage with industry and higher learning institutions to better understand the connection between subject selections and career pathways. “Speaking to industry and other learning providers enables students to learn about a potential career path that best speaks to them, or perhaps discover a career path that they may not have otherwise considered,” she said.

Birthing services return
Welcome news announced for community
Portland District Health (PDH) is pleased to announce that birthing services have reopened at the health facilty. The announcement follows an exhaustive search to recruit midwives to the health service in the face of workforce shortage across Australia and the world. This welcome news builds on the work of the specialist rural maternity consultant Fiona Faulks and the newly established Maternity Services Community Advisory Group, as they continue to develop a service model customised to best meet the needs of Portland and the region for the long-term.PDHinterim CEO Karena Prevett said PDH was always determined to bring back birthing services as soon as it was safe to do so and the reopening was testament to the work of PDH staff. “We’re really excited to reopen our birthing services and I know our midwives and obstetrician are too,” Ms Prevett said. “We’re passionate about the delivery of birthing services here in Portland and we’re pleased that we have overcome PDH’s rostering challenges.“Iwantto thank our staff, neighbouring health services and the Department of Health for their assistance in navigating this difficult period. I also thank and acknowledge the patience and support of women and families impacted by the temporary diversion. We owe you a debt of gratitude.”Birthingservices at PDH will now run alongside all the other services that have continued throughout the diversion, such as antenatal clinics, birthing classes and domiciliary care. PDH has already contacted all mothers to discuss their individual care plans now that birthing services have reopened. Ms Prevett also said that while the reopening was very good news, it was important to acknowledge that the long-term challenges facing maternity services in the region remain. “We need to be clear with our community, this is not a permanent solution,” Ms Prevett said. “We remain vulnerable to short-term challenges caused by unforeseen sick leave and other rostering disruptions.“That’swhy we are continuing to explore new models tailored to our region that are consistent with the recommendations of the Hillis Review.“I’vebeen pleased to see firsthand the important work of Fiona Faulks and her team, as they work closely with the community, neighbouring health services and people across the health system to develop a model tailored to our region’s geography, population, workforce and community needs. “The Maternity Services Community Advisory Group met for the first time last month and I’m excited about what they’ll develop for the future, and the possibilities for maternity services in Portland and district, alongside our colleagues in the region. “In the meantime, we’re getting on with the job of reopening the birthing services. It’s wonderful that we can again offer a full maternity service at PDH, and provide safe, high-quality, women-centred care.”

Story Dogs is an amazing program with a simple goal - to make reading fun for children, so they become confident lifelong readers.InMount Gambier there are five teams in operation but, as with all the, almost, 3000 teams across Australia, they need funding support and that fundraising campaign is supported by National Story Dogs Giving Day this Friday. It will see the Mount Gambier teams set up at Bunnings, as part of the fundraising effort, from 10am -2pm on both Friday and Saturday in a bid to garner some financial support for the program in this region.Helen Williams and Maggie are one of the newest teams in the Limestone Coast and they are loving every minute of being part of the Story Dogs program. “I am retired and Maggie became my therapy dog when my husband died in December 2018, I got her in September 2019,” Helen said. “The main reason I wanted another Border Collie was that I knew I would have to take her for exercise, this would get me out and help me with the grief of my husband’s death. I was heavily involved with dog obedience 30 years ago and decided that I would return to this sport so I could have something meaningful in my life once again.” And life with Maggie has done just that, especially since they passed their assessment to become a bonafide Story Dogs team.Ofcourse, like so many stories of the past couple of years, no sooner had Helen and Maggie become accredited then COVID hit and so school visits were not on the cards but tat has all changed now and they regular volunteer at Melaleuca Park School.“Thejoy Maggie brings to the children is remarkable, the children are always so excited,” Helen said. “It is very good exposure for children who have a fear of dogs, as Story dogs are very well behaved and wear a bright orange vest, so when a child with a fear of a dog see other children gathering around Maggie it helps them to look at Maggie who is a bigger dog - this on its own helps the child from a Maggiedistance.”isalsomaking her own mark in agility competition. “Our Miss Maggie helped me so much, she has completed all grades in dog obedience and has just gained her Community Companion Dog (CCD) in trialling which is competition work,” Helen said.“Maggie also does agility and is extremely fast on the circuit, so fast that I can’t run her at my age
Vital program looking to raise much needed funds this weekend
Mt
Helen Williams Back in April 2019, Lifestyle1 first profiled the Story Dogs program, showcasing its benefits for students, staff and volunteers alike. Back then, the routine was simple - every Thursday morning, then seven year old TeKani was collected from her classroom by Janine Feil and her labradoodle Paddington and they headed to the library for 20 minutes of reading. Not only did TeKani love this special one on one time she gets but her classmates loved seeing Paddington on his weekly visits to the school. Each dog and volunteer work with four students each in a 20 minute sessions that involves the child reading, the volunteer reading and just generally spending some time together. It was teacher librarian Suzanne Harding who discovered the program and contacted then Mount Gambier coordinators Des & Chris Schwarz, who founded the local program. The Mount Gambier program is currently without a coordinator. “I am always looking for things that connect to reading,” Mrs Harding said. “At the time they did not have any dogs but I left my number in case things changed and at the beginning of 2017 I thought I would give it another go and it has been running in the school ever since.” It is a program aimed at Year 2 and 3 students, who are generally seven or eight years old, that need support with reading and/or confidence building. “At the start of every year I contact the classroom teachers and see which students they would like to recommend for the program,” Mrs Harding said. As casual and relaxed as the Story Dog sessions are, they are carefully constructed. Not only do only a small percentage of dogs pass the stringent training to become part of the program but the ensuring the students read to the volunteer, as well as listening to the volunteer read is also critical. “It is just as important for children to listen to adults reading so they can learn how Mt Gambier Pick Ave Mt Gambier Rosaville Deli Mt Gambier Swallow Drive Gambier Roadhouse BP Nangwarry General Store Ampol Naracoorte Foodland Naracoorte Newsagency Naracoorte Plaza Kiosk Naracoorte Woolworths Nelson Roadhouse Penola Australia Post Penola IGA Penola Shell Port MacDonnell General Store Portland IGA Portland Woolworths Robe BJ’s Newsagency Robe Foodland South End General Store Tantanoola Road House Tarpeena Australia Post well as

words are pronounced, as it is for them to do the reading. It is not the volunteers job to teach the children to read but just to support and encourage them,” Mrs Harding said. Not surprisingly as a teacher librarian, Mrs Harding is passionate about literacy and getting kids to read and this is just one program that supports her“Somemission.students are not exposed to books at home and therefore don’t know about the fabulous opportunities that exist with reading,” she said. “And some students don’t think they like reading but it is often just a matter of finding the genre that is right for them.” With each students the experience is different. “Sometimes they are a bit frightened of the dog when they first start but it is wonderful to see how their confidence grows, as well as the improvement in their reading,” volunteer Janine Feil said. Janine loves being part of the program. “I wanted to do some volunteer work and I really enjoy this,” she said. “I saw so much improvement in the children. And it is really good for the dog asLeeannewell.” Martin-Brown is also part of the McDonald Park School Story Dog program since its inception – first with her beloved German Shepherd Shara, who passed away, and now with her Staffordshire Terrier Chester.“Iwas friends with Des & Chris and they told me they were going to introduce Story Dogs in Mount Gambier and I was lucky that Shara, who was a beautiful natured dog, was accepted,” Leeanne said. “Story Dogs was a good fit for me because I am a great believer in reading.” Leeanne finds the program so rewarding and her new Story Dog – Chester – loves it. “He knows when it is Story Dog day and even when I try and get the bag ready quietly, he always seems to know and comes bounding up to me ready to leave,” Leeanne said. Aside from the dog, Leeanne also believes it is the nature of the sessions that really helps the kids. “I think they love the one on one time, whether they are there for reading or social skills, and there is no pressure and they feel special,” she said.

Zealand, Destiny moved to Australia with his family in 1998. The second youngest of seven children, Queensland was originally home for the then nine year old before a move to Millicent and then Mount Gambier in August 2008. “We lived a very hard life in New Zealand and my parents wanted something better for us – more opportunities,” Destiny said. “So they saved up, sold their cars and moved over here and the rest is history. I think it was harder for my older siblings, they struggled a bit with the move, but I loved it.”
And it was in 2009 that Destiny’s relationship with TAFE SA started as he looked to find a career path. “I originally went to TAFE to look into a retail course,” Destiny said. “I was just finding it really hard to get into any kind of work when you are not from the community.”
“Every since I moved here in what was a cold winter in 2008, I have just loved it here – I think this region is incredible and anyone who comes into the hotel I tell them about the great places to visit, the landmarks, the best places to eat, tell them everything about how great this region is,” Destiny said.The TAFE SA Honour Awards recognise success in all its diversity – we want to honour the rising stars and the established industry leaders.Youcan nominate a friend, a work colleague, a former student, a family member, or yourself –because it’s also important to recognise your own achievements.

Selected finalists will be invited to a prestigious award ceremony where they will have the opportunity to network with the TAFE SA Chief Executive David Coltman, TAFE SA Board, government and industry leaders, and other distinguished guests. Winners may be profiled across both media and digital media platforms.Thenomination process is quick, easy, and accessible. To submit a nomination, please fill in the online form. Nominees must have completed a Certificate II or higher TAFE SA qualification or a WSET® course delivered by TAFE SA. Once you submit your nomination, you’ll receive a digital postcard to send to your nominee to let them know that you think they deserve to be honoured. The Awards celebrate success across career levels, industries, and communities. From tradies to health workers, artists to IT professionals, defence experts to hospitality connoisseurs – TAFE SA alumni make outstanding contributions to local, national, and international communities.
Award winning mentor
When you talk building resilience, there are few better examples than Destiny Rangi-Punua Dela’mere-Gage and at the end of last year, the affable Mac’s Hotel gaming manager was honoured for his resilience as part of the 2022 TAFE SA Honour Awards. Destiny was named one of two finalists and went to Government House – a lone regional nominee, outside of the Regional Trailblazer category, which saw another Mount Gambier based leader, Belinda Tilley, share the award. Belinda is the founder of I-Myself, a personal development program, and the ‘Herself’ Project, which trains community mentors and empowers women affected by domestic violence and disadvantage. Nominations for the 2022 awards open this week. To be narrowed down as a finalist from 237 nominations last year, Destiny was overwhelmed that his impact was being recognised.BorninNew

Destiny headed to TAFE with an artist friend from Millicent and early discussions identified that perhaps hospitality would be the best fit. It turned out to be a masterstroke. “I do think it suits my personality,” Destiny said. And since completing the course, Destiny has been part of the team at The Mac’s Hotel in Mount Gambier, taking on the gaming manager role five years ago. But Destiny never really left TAFE behind, mentoring hospitality students, not realising the impact he was having on that program until his nomination for the Resilience Award last year, when the award blurb said it all“Destiny is held in high esteem by his colleagues and peers and has been described as an excellent mentor. As a supervisor, Destiny nurtures his staff to achieve their full potential.”Andthat nurturing came to the fore over the past two years when COVID really hit the sector. “We know it was really, really hard for everyone in hospitality –we thought we would lose our jobs, then Jobkeeper kicked in – and now it looks like things have settled down again,” Destiny said. Destiny not only has care for his staff but also customers and that is where one of his personal projects was“Wegenerated.hadanolder customer in the pokies who I was worried about sort of spiralling but I knew he was a bit of an amateur writer so I tried to find a writers guild for him to get involved with,” Destiny said. In his search for that group, which did not exist, he found other writers in that older age bracket and set up a local writers’ guild and they now meet monthly. He is now working in tandem with Lifeline to help the Burmese community.“Thereare quite a lot of young Burmese people coming through and having issues because they are not surrounded by what they know and they are facing things they never faced in their own country, like drinking and gambling and we need to find something for them to do - a centre or a program - so they don’t end up having problems and issues,” Destiny said. His care for others is definitely a trait developed by his family and Destiny has been a huge part of the upbringing of his nieces and nephews – a role he backgroundfrom“Itreasures.docomeapoorbut have always been taught that doesn’t make you a bad person or that you can’t achieve things and I have tried to be the best I can and be a good model,”rolehesaid.Asfor Destiny’s visit to Government House, it was a memorable day. “Me and my partner were kind of bit on our own – a lot of the other finalists seemed to know each other but the Governor’s husband took us under his wing and gave us a tour of Government House – even some rooms the public don’t get to see – he was just so welcoming and it was a very humbling experience,” heButsaid.since then, it has been back to business as usual in his hospitality role, which so often doubles as a tourism ambassadorial role.

I think we all suffer a little from email fatigue. I got this one recently though. “Dear Robbie, What’s wrong with the youth of today? If you’re wondering, recently I’ve come up with a comprehensive list that I’d like to share with you.
went through a phase where we sent him with sultanas. Now, he didn’t actually eat sultanas, but we’d tried every other fruit we could so thought we’d give them a go. The teachers would insist that he put one sultana in his mouth. When his mother would pick him up from kindy/school, the teacher would proudly tell Donna that they had gotten him to eat his sultana. When mother and child would reach the car, Donna would find that the sultana was still in his mouth, in liquid form after being chewed on for the previous two or three hours. He wasn’t prepared to swallow that muck and would promptly spit it out. So you’re right, Duncan. The youth of today are no good, but instead of grizzling about it, you need to do something about it. Let them know. Write your list of complaints down on a piece of paper and pin it up on the wall in your workplace. Remind them regularly of how inadequate they are as human beings. …hang on a minute. I just got another email. “Dear Robbie, Strewth. Can you get that Duncan bloke to come and be my mate. Alf Stewart from Summer Bay” If you’d like to contact me, send me an email to robbietansel@ gmail.com
TVWEDNESDAY,
1) Lack of tolerance – Too quick to judge and dismiss. 2) Often suffer from severe cases of smartarseism. 3) Too often see menial tasks as beneath them. 4) Too sensitive. Way too sensitive. They should think of the diggers more!! 5) Lack of respect for more experienced members of society. They think they know everything. 6) They can be seriously demanding of others. Maybe caused by a superiority complex? 7) RUDE! Interrupt others. 8) No stamina – weak and insipid. Like to write their rules to suit them. 9) Full of themselves (eg. Their hair cuts). 10) Citizen police officers – annoying as hell! 11) Lack of manners. 12) Fussy! Ask yourself, ‘Would Burke and Wills have enjoyed this?!’ 13) Ahead of themselves. What do you think of my list? Do you have difficulties with young people as well? Duncan from Dunkeld”It’snot often that you receive an email from 1932, so thanks for that Duncan. I’m a bit disappointed that you didn’t express your frustration at sheilas getting to vote, and all those foreigners taking over the country. Reading your email, I felt like I was at Christmas lunch listening to my grandpa. Duncan, I’m assuming you’re either a taxi driver, a hairdresser, or possibly a seasoned old-school PE teacher, surrounded by a bunch of young colleagues with new ideas, toned physiques and barber shaped hairstyles.I’mnot saying I disagree with you, Duncan. think we’d all be a bit more grateful for our miserable lives if we considered how Burke and Wills would view our circumstances. I’m just saying that you’re not allowed to have opinions like this anymore. Reminiscing and romanticising the good old days is not politically correct. You can’t say negative things about the young people as you might dent their delicate selfesteem. Heaven help us all if they were given some feedback that might actually help them reflect on their performance and try to improve it. Everyone needs to get a trophy now so they feel good about themselves. Back in my day, if my performance in some task or area wasn’t up to scratch, I’d cop a spray and that would actually be a spur to improve what I was doing. We’ve actually taken away an incentive for people to get good at what they’re doing. While we’re talking about the problems of the youth today, recently my partner Donna cooked the peas to be served with the family’s dinner in a different way than usual, with a few different ingredients. After revealing honey and orange pulp as being part of the mystery, she queried our youngest Lebron as to what other mystery ingredients he could taste. His guesses included, sultanas, zucchinis, apples, bananas, and barbecue shapes. Obviously none of these options made sense in any way. It was also absurd of him to be suggesting these as the flavour he was trying to identify, as he’s never eaten any of them. It’s pretty hard to work out what a mystery flavour is when the only flavours your taste buds have ever experienced are chips, cheese pizza, toast with Nutella and chicken noodles. Now when I say he’s never eaten any of the other flavours, I do need to explain the story of when he used to eat sultanas. When at kindy, and during his Junior Primary years, we were expected to send him with fruit in his lunch box. We

The NBL1 South finals got underway on Friday night at The Ice House with the second and third ranked teams locking horns with a chance to host next week’s preliminary final at stake. Kilsyth was able to get off to a flying start but steadiedGambierMountsoonandusing the vocal home crowd behind them, ended up prevailing 94-84. They will now host a preliminary final next Sunday at 2.30pm back at The Ice House with a spot in the grand final on the line while the Cobras will now host a semi-final to earn a spot in the other preliminary final. Precious little separated the Mount Gambier Pioneers and Kilsyth Cobras during the NBL1 South regular season and as a result it was no surprise to see them play out such a hard fought qualifying final match up on Friday night - both ending up on identical 16-6 records It was the visiting Kilsyth who got off to an impressive start with Corey Jeffs scoring seven straight points to help them to a 12-6 lead before Mount Gambier were able to steady and work their way on top. By the time Michael Harris pulled off a steal on Jamie Ahale and got it out to a breaking Tom Kubank for a dunk, the Pioneers had regained the lead at 14-12 which soon became 19-12 on the back of their run of scoring 13 consecutive points.
The Mount Gambier Golf Club female golfers participated in a Three Person Medley Stableford Competition last Wednesday, generously sponsored by former captain Faye Mainwaring. The field faced a very cold, windy morning, with heavy rain early afternoon, heavy conditions making high scoring very difficult. The winning combination for the day was Di O’Donnell (33 points), Helen McIntyre (31 points) and Carol Davis (29 points). The format of the competition was to record on a separate scorecard, the best two highest scores of each hole, and the winning team recorded 75 points. Collecting 7 points on the 3rd hole enabled the winners to just get over the line by 1 point. Second position went to Jess Parsons (30 points), Jan Shanahan (38 points) and Vicki Clark (18 points). This team had a wonderful 42 points on the front nine racking up 7 points on the 8th and two 6 pointers on holes 5 and 6. Captain Jan Shanahan (19 handicap) had the best score of the day playing two under her handicap. Third placing of the day was the team of Kathy Ewer (28 points), Di Norman (30 points) and Helen Gregory (31 points). Playing to the format they had 72 points. They played very consistent golf, their split being 36/36=72 points. Six balls given out to 4th and 5th placegetters and went to Jane Lamont, Libby Altschwager, Jennette Braun, Andrea Pegler, Lois Harvey and Jill Johnson. Jess Parsons had a lovely shot on the 8th par 3 hole, measuring 28cms and registered a birdie and collecting 4 points and three balls for the pro shot. Second shots on the par 3 6th hole and collecting a ball each were A grade Kathy Ewer, B grade Di O’Donnell and C grade Lizzie Clements.OnWednesday, August 31, a 4 BBB stableford sponsored by Kerry Pedlar will be contested. A reminder to all players and other clubs that Mount Gambier’s Open Day will be held on Friday, September 23, in the format of A grade stroke and nett, off the stick for the SE Championship trophy and stableford for B and C grade and D grade. A Veterans competition will be played in conjunction with all other competitions.Toenterring manager Matthew Plummer on (08)87257739. Flyers have been sent to South East and western district clubs.

The Pioneers were on top at home 52-38 at half-time and while they did maintain a double-figure lead for most of the second half, the Cobras did continue to fight hard to keep things interesting and threatened a fight back on multiple occasions. However, it wasn’t to be and the Pioneers proved too strong to end up winning 94-84 to move straight into a home preliminary final.

Sporting and recreation clubs in Mount Gambier are invited to apply for up to $50,000 to assist with capital works or upgrades in the City of Mount Gambier 2022/2023 Sport and Recreation Capital Works Program. Projects considered under the funding program include capital renewal of existing infrastructure, capital upgrades, and new capital assets or projects aimed at increasing the community usage of specific sport or recreation facilities. The funding is available to assist with projects with a minimum total cost of $10,000 and a maximum total cost of $50,000, with an allocation $100,000 on offer under the 2022/2023 Sport and Recreation Capital Works Program. City of Mount Gambier General Manager City Infrastructure Barbara Cernovskis said the program encourages sporting and recreation clubs to partner with Council to deliver capital works projects and improvements to their facilities. “Since its inception in 2010, the program has provided over $900,000 towards local sport and recreation facilities through this fund,” Ms Cernovskis said. Last year, council provided South Gambier Football Club with $18,000 under the Major Capital Works Program to assist the installation of a 30kW solar system.South Gambier Football Club president Wayne Glynn said the support of the council made the project possible. “The Sport and Recreation Capital Works Program enabled our club to install a solar system which will benefit the club and the environment for many years. We installed a 30kW solar system which has dramatically reduced our reliance on fossil fuels and significantly lowered our short and long term club running costs,” Glynn said, Further information about the program including the program guidelines and application form can be found at

3-rubber winners:
Wins to Bremner, Doug Megaw and Alex McGregor saw Dukes And Nukes wrestle their way back into the contest, the match remaining tightly fought thereafter. The Bachman’s both proved too strong, winning their last singles rubbers to guide Rennick Raiders to a 6-5 victory. Rayelene Hutchesson’s team, Rays Mob, had a much more decisive 7-4 victory over David Fox’s War Dogs, Chris Turner remaining undefeated for the victors while Hutchesson and Fox also performed strongly for their respective teams. Andrew and Stuart Telford both posted clean sheets and Hailee Barnes also performed strongly to give the Rose Between Thorns a near prefect 10-1 rout over Maddie McGregor’s Moss Boss. In the C Grade, Tracey Rawlings’ Tricksters posted a comfortable 7-4 victory over Andrew Schubert’s Comeback Kids. Schubert kept his sheet clean but was unable to match the team effort of Rawlings, Deakin Lofthouse and Heather McGregor. Comeback Kids young player Caitlin Barry, playing in just her second ever week of competition, remarkably managed to take a game off seasoned campaigner Lofthouse. In the final matchup of the night, Demolition and Hard Knox were both reduced to two players, Mark Devaney keeping his singles sheet clean to guide Demolition to a slender 5-4 victory over Tom Horrigan’s Hard Knox.Mount Gambier Table Tennis Club is always welcoming of new players of all ages, experience, and capability. Practice is held at 7pm on Monday nights and competition is at 7pm on Wednesday nights at the Mount Gambier Showgrounds Hall.

WEEK FOUR ACTION: BJ Watson
SPORT THEDOWNLOADAPPAT MT GAMBIER MT GAMBIER Week 4 of the Mount Gambier table Tennis Winter Season served up an exhilarating display of tightly contested matchups last week, with some quality skills on show in all grades. Sirinat Sweet’s Knight Owls overcame Leigh Barry’s Chop Block by the barest of margins in the first A Grade contest, Robin Pellen and Ian Conlin both performing strongly for the victors while Barry’s clean sheet, including a dominant win over Sweet in the last rubber of the night, wasn’t enough to save his team from defeat. In what was undoubtedly the highlight of the match, Conlin triumphed in an epic battle for the ages against Chop Block’s young star Rowan Hardcastle early in the night. After Hardcastle raced through the first game to take a 1-0 lead, Conlin found his feet in the second claiming it after a tight seesawing tussle. Hardcastle once again gained the upper hand, taking out the third game as both players began to feel the tension. Sensing the urgency of the moment, Conlin drew on all his experience and determination to compose himself, desperately chasing down and lunging for every ball, eventually taking the fourth game to send the battle to a decider. Indicative of the whole contest, absolutely nothing could separate the two combatants in the fifth. Conlin’s powerful groundstrokes and deft placement was countered by Hardcastle’s rangy reach and fleet footwork time and again, neither able to gain any advantage throughout the game. With scores locked away at 13-apiece and teammates from camps biting their lips on the sidelines, a tentative backhand poke from Hardcastle allowed Conlin to assertively whisk the ball across the table, wrongfooting his opponent who could only helplessly watch as it skipped out of reach. From there, Conlin was able to control the final point with a brisk topspin serve that Hardcastle was unable to control, sending his return long past the table to give Conlin the game 15-13 and the overall win. The match continued in this vein throughout the night, The Knight Owls eventually coming out on top by 6 rubbers to 5. The other two A Grade matches were unfortunately more one-sided, Travis Sweet keeping his singles sheet clean to propel Sweet Enough to a comprehensive 8-3 win over Ronald Reid’s JK Ronald, while Kevin Patzel was unfortunately forced to play a lone hand, the rest of his Kennel Mates team unavailable to play against Sunny’sPatzel’sGuns.resolve could never be questioned, he kept his sheet clean and recorded the entirety of his team’s score, including two marathon wins against Scott Davies and Sanith Ghetia respectively, but his herculean effort was never going to be enough, the Guns romping to an 8-3 win. The first B Grade encounter saw Dale and Mark Bachmann give Rennick Raiders the perfect start against Luke Bremner’s Dukes and Nukes, winning their respective opening singles rubbers and pairing up in the doubles to have their team leading 4-1 lead in the blink of an eye.

Last week at the Millicent Bowls Club 28 players took part in the 2-4-2 game. During the game the weather turned a little wet which stopped play for about 15 minutes, allowing players to retire to the clubroom for a nice warm tea or coffee before recommencing the game. The tournament committee introduced a power play for one end of the 20 ends game. The power play for each team had to be nominated before the end commenced and if that team won the end, then the score for that end only was doubled. The winning team for the day went to Sam Schofield and Andre Reinders with a score of 33+16. Runners up for the day with a score of 33+10 went to Denis Clifford and Carl Schapel with a score of 33+10. Other winning teams for the day were, Adriana Ross, Ian Ross 33+8. Frank Cooper, Steve Carnellor 33+7. Brian Goode, Garth Baker 33+1. Eddie Hann, Neil Whelan 32+9 and Derrick Lindh, Bill Burdon 30+3. Players were reminded of the club events that are coming up and are posted on the website in coming events, so please register if you intend playing in these events.

Blue Lake golf ladies battle the wintry conditions in a stableford round winter weather, SEAC action returned with the 2022 Motorkhana Series Round 3 being held in fine conditions at the Glenburnie Saleyards complex earlier this month.Team Sims put together a very interesting and quite different set of tests to keep the lucky entrants on their toes for the day. Those that have been doing motorkhanas for many, many years, were tested with the different tests, that had not been used for many years, if at all. Test Layout 1, titled Overcross, is a mirrored layout to the popular Crossover and did not cause any problems with the drivers, apart from the odd cone penalty. Quickest on the first outing, Ken Trimnell, pipped Tony Wallis for line honours, with Phil Wilson, Damien Wilson and Jason Sims following. Second attempt and Tony Wallis improved by some three seconds in the family Volkswagen Coupe to pip Trimnell with his Suzuki Swift a little quicker than his first outing. Damien Wilson also trimmed a couple of seconds off the previous run to get third spot from Phil Wilson’s Soarer, Jason Sims holding in at fifth. Dale Tucker, having a go for the first time in many years put in tidy runs for sixth spot both times in his tidy Nissan S14. Layout 2, titled Garages Twin, is a simple layout with some Slalom forward motion into a garage, then reversing into a second garage, then forward is a ‘U’ turn to the finish box. Phil Wilson proved to be the quickest by 3/100ths of a second couple of seconds back for third, Damien Wilson fourth, Jason Sims fifth and Geoff Wilson sixth. Same Test, second attempt, Tony Wallis got home by 3/100ths from Phil Wilson with both drivers improving on the first test time. Damien Wilson found a shorter way home and improved his time by some three seconds for third, Ken Trimnell fourth, Dale Tucker fifth and Jason Sims sixth. East End layout, titled Eyes Big, is a variation to the Big Eyes test and caught out quite a few with the layout having a mirror difference each side that resulted in six WD entries on the first outing and four on the second run. Of those that did read the map correctly, Tony Wallis made it two from two for this test from Phil Wilson and Jason Sims swapping places, Ken Trimnell getting a third and a fourth. Ashton Slotegraaf did it right on the first time for fifth and Josh Munn fifth on his second attempt.Heather Parker, sharing the Volkswagen with Tony Wallis, drove well in the earlier tests, got a sixth spot for her first go at this one. At the Western End, Twin Garages had been set up – a mirror image of the previous test at thatThereend.were a couple of WDs due to missing a turning point or similar error, but Tony Wallis continued to collect Fastest times, but only on the first test attempt. Ken Trimnell took second spot from Jason Sims, Josh Munn, Damien Wilson and Geoff Wilson. The second pass saw Jason Sims knock it out of the park from Phil Wilson, Ken Trimnell, Ashton Slotegraaf, Dion Becker and Bruce Hamilton.Aftera short lunch break and some course layout changes made, Drivers were presented with Half Dozen Gates at the East end and Renno Diamond at the West End.Half Dozen Gates is six openings in a rectangle with two to be entered from the inside of the box, two from outside the box and two to be reversed through. Of the 15 competitors to front for this test, there were 12 different executions. Ken Trimnell got Quickest time on the first go, with Will Argoon next, Damien Wilson, Jason Sims, Phil Wilson and Geoff Wilson. Second pass, Will Argoon took the chocky box from Trimnell, Sims J, Wilson D, Dale Tucker and Wilson P. Renno Diamond is a diamond shape with three double gates and a turn through between two cones.Being a simple and fast test, some people got caught in the wrong gate entry – resulting in five WDs in the first run and three for the secondDamiengo.Wilson stole the show on the first run with Dale Tucker nipping at his heels, Jason Sims, Dion Becker, Ken Trimnell and GeoffSecondWilson.pass went to Phil Wilson from Dale Tucker, Geoff Wilson (this time missing all the cones) in third, Ashton Slotegraaf, Dion Becker and Bruce Hamilton. Last test layouts were Four Leaf Clover and Dollar. Four Leaf Clover is the same layout as Half Dozen Gates but driven in a series of four loops.Phil Wilson cranked up the Soarer and set the pace from Dale Tucker, Ken Trimnell, Jason Sims, Damien Wilson and Ashton Slotegraaf. Pushing hard, Jason Sims got the top spot in the second run, from Ken Trimnell, Phil Wilson, all three competitors on 34 seconds, Sims +.05, Trimnell +.10 and Wilson +.41. Damien Wilson 4th, Dale Tucker fifth and Lindsay Beare getting in a good run for sixth. Dollar is a good test for those that push the limits and Ken Trimnell took top honours for the first attempt, from Jason Sims, Dale Tucker, Geoff Wilson, Ashton Slotegraaf and Phil Wilson. Pass number two and Trimnell made it two fromtwo, as did Jason Sims, with Phil Wilson heading Dale Tucker, Geoff Wilson and Will Argoon.
