Newcastle Weekly contents

thursday 27 april 2017

This week... From the editor It's been a whirlwind couple of weeks – short working weeks, at that – thanks to a string of public holidays. I hope you have lapped up the extra time with friends and family, as have I. Around here, short working weeks can be challenging, as we are tasked with producing the same, great content we do every week, in a shorter amount of time. But fear not, loyal readers: this week's edition is no exception. A personal favourite of mine is the story of Zarin Cenna, a local artist whose career is forging ahead in great strides – all because she chose to chase after her dreams. Zarin and I went to high school together, and, even back then, she would doodle on anything she could get her hands on. I truly believe Newcastle Weekly has a place and a purpose to shine a spotlight on local, emerging artists, so it brings me great pleasure and pride to tell Zarin's story. Our news section, this week, is very transport and development-focused, harking back to the basics of 'rates, roads and rubbish' – all of which are big talking points in communities like ours. But, if you're looking for something a little lighter, you can't go past this week's Home flat lay: velvet crush. Enjoy!

bid to improve traffic safety along Hillsborough Road has so far proven fruitless. That’s according to community organiser Michael Nolan, who says residents won’t give up the fight. Mr Nolan claims drivers turning onto Hillsborough Road from Chadwick Street and Higham Road, in Hillsborough, face up to a 15-minute wait until traffic clears at about 9.30am. And, judging by the number of people who showed up to a recent community meeting to discuss the issue, it’s a concern for many. “So many residents, including people who’ve lived here for 40 years, and I’ve been here for 20 years myself, all came to the meeting with stories of near misses and accidents,” Mr Nolan says. The meeting, which Mr Nolan described as “productive”, attracted more than 100 concerned residents, plus the likes of Charlestown MP Jodie Harrison, Lake Macquarie mayor Kay Fraser and councillors. As a result, a working party, consisting of residents, Lake Macquarie councillors

and members of Jodie Harrison’s office, was established. Mr Nolan believes Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) has taken “too long” to deliver an outcome on the issue. He says residents are still waiting on a traffic study that the RMS started back in 2012. “It’s frustrating for us, considering we have so many people who have written emails and made calls,” he says. “We always get correspondence back, but by the time something looks like happening there seems to be a change [in personnel] at the RMS and it gets delayed again.” An RMS spokesperson said the results from its Lake Macquarie traffic study would be released later this year. “[The Lake Macquarie Network Study] will assess the consideration of intersection treatments along Hillsborough Road and help to determine priorities for future improvements,” the spokesperson said. “The community will be invited to comment [on the results of the study] before it is finalised.” - Ben Murphy

news Pool’s construction dives into final stages It has been billed as an exciting and highly-anticipated project for the people of Maitland. And, now, the development of a new 25-metre heated indoor swimming pool is nearing completion. The $8.5 million project will also feature a pool hall and covered walkway, as well as alterations to the existing amenities. It is being built on land at the same site as the current Maitland Aquatics Centre. Maitland City Council’s senior project architect, Aaron Cook, says construction has progressed well. “Currently the contractors are completing works to the interior of the facility including pool tiling and installation of the air conditioning and ventilation equipment,” he says. “Between now and when the facility is scheduled for completion, work will include external glazing, the installation of the pool water treatment equipment, as well as some external works to footpaths, turf and driveways. “We’re on track to finalise the work on time and

are looking at completion of the project in July.” Maitland mayor Peter Blackmore said earlier the indoor pool would be an important facility for the community. “It is great news for families, keen swimmers and people who use the pools for fitness and aqua aerobics,” he said. “Our aquatic centres in Maitland and East Maitland are hugely popular, and the new pool will complement these facilities, providing yearround access and improved aquatic services. “This new pool is an important part of ensuring that our city continues to have the firstclass sporting and recreation facilities that the people of Maitland expect.” The indoor pool has been part of a wider upgrade of sporting facilities in Maitland. It is part of the council’s capital works program, with funding provided through Section 94 development fees. Other projects included the netball building in Maitland Park and the construction of a new grandstand at No.1 Sportsground. - Ben Murphy

Awabakal Aboriginal Land Council will receive $150,000 to stabilise the old post office in Newcastle. Parliamentary Secretary for the Hunter, Scot MacDonald MLC, recently announced the funding for the heritage-listed building. It was awarded under the state government’s heritage grants program. The announcement marks this year’s Australian Heritage Festival, which runs until 21 May. Mr MacDonald said communities played an important role in maintaining and promoting local heritage. “Our local heritage speaks to our history so it is important to protect, promote and celebrate it,” he said. Councils, Aboriginal organisations, peak heritage organisations and owners of heritage items have been awarded a share of $5.4 million in grant funding as part of the program.

news Push to cancel rail fleet contract

Roads a top priority

The state government’s decision to outsource the manufacturing of a new intercity rail fleet has left Member for Wallsend Sonia Hornery deeply concerned. The new rail fleet will replace trains carrying people from Sydney to the Central Coast, Newcastle, the Blue Mountains and the South Coast. While the benefits will be felt locally, the government has engaged a South Korean manufacturer to build the new fleet, through a $2.3 billion contract.

Cessnock council is calling on the state government to make roads a priority. Councillors voted unanimously to seek support from various government officials in a bid to work towards a solution for Cessnock’s ageing state road network. The council will pursue an urgent meeting with the NSW Minister for Roads, Maritime and Freight; the NSW Parliamentary Secretary for the Hunter; and the state member for Cessnock. Cessnock mayor Bob Pynsent said the united stance of councillors reflected the current frustration levels in the community. “The safety of our road users is paramount, prompting the decision to pursue new avenues to gain the support of the state government and secure much-needed funding to enable these vital works to take place,” Cr Pynsent said.

In response to this, Ms Hornery has launched a petition, calling on the trains to be built in NSW by local workers.

She claimed hundreds of jobs would be lost at the Downer EDI site in Cardiff. “Spending that money overseas will be seen in the future with higher unemployment and less opportunities,” she said.

“The government needs to be willing to invest in the Hunter; we have two very successful train manufacturers here. “The Victorian state government has recently procured a new fleet of trains from a local manufacturer at a competitive price, demonstrating that local workers and local businesses are well equipped to design and build these new trains. “I am calling on the government to cancel this contract, re-issue the tender for a fit-for-purpose train and ensure the new intercity rail fleet is built here in NSW by local workers.” The new rail fleet will come into service progressively, with the first trains expected to be rolled out in 2019. Some of the mooted features include wider seats, charging stations for mobile devices, digital screens and announcements, and modern air conditioning.

or while stocks last

She’s lived, in her own words, a “very fortunate” life. St Francis Retirement Village Eleebana resident Marj Blakemore celebrated her 100th birthday last Wednesday. Surrounded by family and friends, she told stories and recited a poem before reflecting on her milestone. “I’ve lived a wonderful life,” she said. “My advice is just to be content, make yourself as happy as you can and treat each day as best you can.” Born in Hamilton, Marj has lived in the region her whole life, spending the majority of it in New Lambton. Despite living through The Great Depression, Marj has mostly fond memories of her upbringing.

“I was an only child [and] had a very happy existence in those days; I knew all of my neighbours and was very fortunate,” she said. Marj went on to work as a secretary in Scott Street for a decade and married husband Jesse, who was on his final leave from the army, in January 1944. Following his death in 1975, she spent years taking care of her mother. Now, after residing at the retirement village for the past four years, she has nothing but praise for those who are caring for her.

Palliative care gaps a concern It can make a huge difference to those suffering from a serious illness. Palliative care provides access to effective pain management as well as emotional and social support. But a lack of services available across the state is an issue of great

concern to the Hunter Cancer Action Network (CAN). Though some people with advanced or terminal cancer are able to use palliative care when and where they need it, many others miss out due to a serious shortage

of specialised doctors and nurses. Hunter CAN spokesperson Barbara Gaudry said the network wanted to help change that. “[A] lack of palliative care can put a terrible burden on patients and their families at a time of great need,” she said. “I know that from the sad stories that I hear from affected patients and carers and from personal experience too. “It’s very sad to think that many people in New South Wales, particularly in communities like the Hunter, can’t access specialist palliative care and support. “Although the current palliative care doctors and nurses do a wonderful job, we know they are under great pressure because of the staff shortages. This situation must change.” In order to highlight the

shortage, Cancer Council NSW is calling on cancer patients, carers and families in the Hunter who have been affected by advanced or terminal cancer within the last five years to share their journey. Patients and carers can call the 13 11 20 Information and Support service to answer a short series of questions with a health professional, in confidence, until Sunday 30 April. Alternatively, there is an online questionnaire available at cancercouncil.com.au/ palliativecare The information collected will help paint a picture of the difference palliative care staff make to people’s lives, as well as the impact that gaps in access to services have on the Hunter community. - Ben Murphy

Northstars downed in tough double-header

Ponga leads the field against future NRL side Teen fullback Kalyn Ponga starred against his future NRL club on Saturday as the North Queensland Cowboys claimed a 24-12 win against the Newcastle Knights. After suffering back-to-back defeats to Wests Tigers and St George Illawarra, the Cowboys were struggling early without injured halfback Johnathan Thurston. Tries to winger Nathan Ross and Brendan Elliot saw the Knights take a 12-10 lead into the break. However, North Queensland lifted its intensity in the second period. Kane Linnett charged through some soft defence to score shortly after the restart, and Ponga then completed his double to make it 22-12.

The Australian Ice Hockey League (AIHL)’s defending champions will be chasing their first win of the season this weekend. Newcastle The Newcastle Northstars, Northstars’ winners of the competition in new recruit Felix-Antoine 2015 and 2016, are preparing to Poulin. face Sydney Bears and Canberra Brave after starting the season with two defeats on the road. The Northstars went down 4-3 to Adelaide on Saturday before suffering a 3-2 loss in a wild encounter against Perth. Canadian defenceman and new recruit Felix-Antoine Poulin had a goal and two assists, while fellow import Steve Kuhn also finished with a pair of assists in the defeat to Adelaide. The following day, captain Bert Malloy scored Newcastle’s first and then turned provider, setting up a goal for another new recruit, Matt Marantz, with seven minutes left on the clock. The Northstars pushed hard in the dying stages and appeared to find an equaliser. However, the linesman ruled that a Newcastle player had deliberately kicked the puck across the line.

Growing up in suburban Sydney as a young Muslim girl with Bangladeshi roots, Zarin Cenna often wrestled with her identity. Her parents moved to Australia three years before she was born, and they lived there until she was four. “Being Muslim, that was a big thing, so it was hard to form a clear identity,” she said. “But now, at 23, I’m learning to take the best bits of both [cultures] and use them in my art. When you look closely at the shapes and patterns in my art, you can see they’re inspired by my Bengali culture.” A quick glance at Zarin’s workspace is all it takes to glean just how much creativity courses through

Glass artist Lee Howes inside The Bank Glass Gallery on Hunter Street, Newcastle.

Banking on local talent It’s been a wild ride for Newcastle-based glass artist Lee Howes and her husband, Tim, over the past 18 months, but the couple are finally ready to share with the city their latest project. The Howes sold their family home in Waratah and bought a former bank building in Hunter Street, and have been working tirelessly to transform it. The old building has been reborn as The Bank Glass Gallery

– a contemporary space for Lee to showcase her works, while also supporting the work of other local artists. It took a year to get the gallery up and running, which has culminated in the gallery’s first group exhibition. Bush to Beach opens today (Thursday 27 April), and features several local artists’ work in a range of mediums, including photography, painting, ceramics,

mixed media, textiles, jewellery, and glass. Howes’ own work is widely known both nationally and internationally, with her glass pieces chosen for the prestigious Ranamok and Waterhouse exhibitions in Australia and Emerge in the USA. She said she and her husband understood the challenges of “becoming known” in the field of arts, and they hoped to help Hunter-based artists with this challenge. “There is so much great art sitting in people’s back rooms and studios that is never seen,” Howes said. “It would be great to give it a chance to be viewed by a wider audience.” The Bank Glass Gallery is located at 564 Hunter Street, Newcastle. - Georgia Osland

Aaron has been in the framing industry since he was 16, and has more than 20 years’ experience. He and Samantha frame all types of art – from paintings to photographs to 3D wall art and memorabilia. With some 1200 frames to choose from, there’s no shortage of choice, and, from the moment you step inside the shop, there’s someone to guide you through the entire custom-framing process. Aaron and Samantha have worked with many local artists, some who’ve chosen to frame entire exhibitions with them, and Samantha believes this has helped Aaron Framed It build its positive reputation among the community. “Aaron’s attention to detail is spot on,” Samantha said.

Green is the new black WITH FASHION & BEAUTY EDITOR, GEORGIA OSLAND

Fast fashion is a buzz phrase we are hearing more and more of these days, often with negative connotations. So much so, that many people are leaning into the ‘conscious fashion’ trend, choosing to pay a little extra for ethicallymade clothing. If you fancy a shopping spree without the hefty social and environmental footprint, and are searching for something unique; locally and responsibly made, then keep Sunday 30 April free for the next instalment of the annual Eco Chic Fashion Pop-Up event at Foghorn Brewhouse. The brainchild of Rachel Prest, who brought the Raid My Wardrobe phenomenon to Newcastle, Eco Chic features upcycled and fair trade fashion at the cutting edge of style and sustainable living. “It’s about ethical practices and ecologically responsible production,” Rachel said. “It feels good knowing that your

purchase pays fair wages to designers and creatives and has a less harmful impact on the environment [than cheap, fast fashion]. “Green is the new black.” The event falls during Fashion Revolution Week (24 to 30 April), which is all about promoting to consumers that being fashion-conscious and ecoconscious go hand in hand. Eight exhibitors, including Aware The Social Design Project, Recycled Bags & Co, Hause of Glassborow and Akatonbo, will provide a boutique shopping experience. Eco Chic Fashion Pop-Up is on Sunday 30 April at Foghorn Brewhouse in Newcastle from 5pm to 8pm. Entry is free, but dinner bookings are recommended as tables are limited. Phone 4929 4721 to reserve your spot at this evening of fashion, food and fun; or visit raidmywardrobe.com.au/ecochic for more information. - Georgia Osland

in the garden Battle of the grasses Today’s garden designs rely heavily on grasses – not lawns, but ornamental species like Purple Fountain Grass and cordylines. Where did the battle of the grasses begin? It all began with the humble mondo grass, and progressed to Liriope muscari, better known as Evergreen Giant. This hardy plant bears spikes of purple flowers and looks great in a pot or planted out in clumps to provide accents.

Cordylines are frequently used as a garden specimen; their colours provide a strong feature amongst green. A wonderful example is Cordyline Nigra, which will grow to 1.8 metres, featuring rich black-green, strap-like leaves. It will grow in full sun or part shade and looks great in a tropical garden with palms and Zanadus. Some cordyline varities become unsightly when they grow tall. They look great when small in a pot.

IN THE GARDEN JUDY SHARPE

This week • Gardenias developing yellow leaves require an application of cow manure and treatment with chelated iron. • Lift corms of gladioli that have finished flowering. • Freshen cyclamen up in a sheltered spot outside at night. • Plant spring bulbs before May.

Region on track to reach housing benchmarks A “significant” increase in newhome building approvals across sections of the Lower Hunter has been hailed by the Housing Industry Association (HIA). The latest figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) indicate that activity in some outer fringes of the region have been performing well. In the year to February 2017, 3,760 approvals were issued for new dwellings in the Hunter region, with Maitland, Cessnock and Singleton accounting for 1,333 or 35% of those approvals. This is an increase of 23% year-on-year. HIA Hunter director Craig Jennion said, should this upward trend continue, the region would do well to reach the housing benchmarks outlined in the Hunter Regional Plan 2036. “[If] the average Hunter region building approvals of the last five

calendar years continue for the life of the plan, then the aim of 70,000 additional dwellings will be exceeded by 10%,” Mr Jennion said. The Cessnock local government area, in particular, appears to exceed housing projections by 29%. Mr Jennion said the new Huntlee project had been a hotspot for Cessnock, with an estimated 106 dwelling approvals last year. “The approval of this, and other greenfield projects in recent years, has ensured there is not as large a problem of land supply bottlenecks that occurs in other locations in the Hunter, ensuring better outcomes in this area,” he said. “A key component of the Hunter’s success will be how well local government areas away from the coast can deliver increased dwellings in both green field and urban renewal locations.”

PICK OF THE WEEK Spy Kids Friday, GO!, 6pm, PG (2001) Writer/director Robert Rodriguez, better known for the high-calibre action blood-letting of Desperado and From Dusk Till Dawn, makes an about-face and aims his latest effort squarely at the kids. Rodriguez’s imaginative visual flare helps tell the story of two children (Alexa Vega, above and Daryl Sabara) who must rescue their parents (Antonio Banderas and Carla Cugino) after finding out that their mum and dad are less boring than they imagined.

Friday

Iron Man 2

Saving Mr Banks Saturday, 7TWO, 8.30pm, PG (2013) A star-studded cast join ranks to tell the “based on a true story” tale of how much-loved movie Mary Poppins came to the big screen. Essentially a character study, we follow author P.L. Travers (Emma Thompson, above) as she clashes with a determined Walt Disney (Tom Hanks) over the adaptation of her book Mary Poppins. Thompson is a delight as the tense and terse Travers, and in a series of moody flashbacks to her childhood in rural Australia with her drunken father (Colin Farrell), we come to learn how personal her book really was.

Sunday, 7MATE, 8.45pm, M (2010) Robert Downey Jr once again injects his legendary screen charisma into the title role of this blockbuster sequel that’s just as bold and fun as the iron-clad 2008 original. Still basking in the public’s adulation after revealing his armour-plated superhero alter-ego, billionaire Tony Stark (Downey Jr) is being pressured by the government to hand over the technology used to power his rocket suit. But Stark soon has bigger worries when his rival Justin Hammer (Sam Rockwell) enlists an electric whip-wielding Russian (Mickey Rourke) to knock him off his perch.

DIANNA AGRON

STARS STARS WITH FRANCIS BEVAN

www.francisbevan.com

For personal readings, phone Francis on 9673 6321. Credit cards welcome. Francis Bevan direct 1902 264 063 or 24 hour line 1902 267 040 $5.50 per minute (higher pay-phone or mobile)..

Dianna has energy, power and drive in spades throughout the year ahead. It’s time for the Glee graduate to cultivate her creative powers. Through hard work, success will be won. She is much stronger than she has been for some time and emotionally she will become detached from situations that once used to tie her down or may have been difficult to deal with. It’s time for her to plan, branch out and direct all her affairs as they are under her control.

ARIES MAR 21 – APR 20

CANCER JUNE 22 – JULY 22

LIBRA SEP 24 – OCT 23

CAPRICORN DEC 22 – JAN 20

The Sun continues to speed its way through Aries and daily life will be busy. You've probably taken on a little too much, but knowing you, you'll handle it very well. Communications with your partner will improve owing to passionate Venus turning direct in Pisces.

Time to step up to the plate and discuss issues in order to draw your partner or loved ones closer. You have the opportunity to see vulnerable sides of your psyche revealed and although it’s easy not to look at them, in the long term it’s best for all concerned.

Getting co-operation at home and at work may be difficult. It seems as though everyone has their own sense of priorities and what is important. Being with the right people can be a great inspiration, so do what you can to surround yourself with positive people.

TAURUS APR 21 – MAY 21

LEO JUL 23 – AUG 23

SCORPIO OCT 24 – NOV 22

Avoid signing on the dotted line if possible and make allowances for delays dealing with anything important. You and your colleagues will be eager to move forward with projects that are already underway, but one important project might be put on hold. It’s possible something better could arise.

Taurus is a stubborn and fixed sign, but the planets offer an opportunity to transform unnecessary aspects of your life and make it better. Focus on sorting out financial affairs and joint assets. If you don’t understand something, read it twice, as the devil is in the detail.

You may have to re-evaluate plans, so try to get a broader and clearer picture before committing yourself to a schedule that is being dictated by friends. You can sidestep conflicts and have good time with some foresight. A secret rendezvous with a lover or stranger is on the cards.

Your communication skills are going to be put to the test, so be certain to engage your brain before you open your mouth. Everything you say is likely to come out wrong. Also don't be surprised if expartners are all of a sudden back in touch.

If you have any health issues that require a second opinion there will be plenty of people only too willing to guide you in the right direction. Stress could be an issue both at work and at home. Do your best to prioritise and not to overload your schedule.

GEMINI MAY 22 – JUNE 21

VIRGO AUG 24 – SEPT 23

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 – DEC 21

PISCES FEB 20 – MAR 20

Change is in the air and not everyone will be able to cope with the new and better you. To avoid arguments and misunderstandings, be certain to be clear in your communication with others. Be open to seeing criticism as a constructive means of improving your relationships.

As far as relationships are generally concerned, try to avoid spending too much money on partying or making loans that might never be repaid. Try not to be a sucker for a hard luck story. Disruptions to travel plans and miscommunications with others is likely.

You’ll feel more focused in your workplace and routine. If you have taken control of your professional activities, this won't be a problem. You’ll have to delegate if you’re in a position to call the shots, if not you’ll have to find a way to prioritise tasks.

With Venus in your sign your passions are rising. This placement also indicates that you will be getting excited in other directions too, suggesting you could get yourself into a lather over a sporting matter or a political issue. You will be busy playing peacemaker.

Barnardos Australia urgently needs shortterm foster carers for local children in need. We provide support, training and a generous tax free allowance of $1050 per fortnight. Call us today.
