sunny day in the Manning Valley, the Bonnie Wingham Festival would have made Bonnie Prince Charlie proud.

Many Scottish food stalls, souvenir stalls and raffles along with Clan tents aligned the Covid-safe common ground in the middle of Wingham.

“There were displays from all the bands, Jacaranda Highland dancers, kilted races, haggis throwing competitions, tug-o-war and a display by Highland Rose Jacobite reenactment group, best dressed Lassie and Best dressed Laddie.”

The day started with the Mass bands marching around the grounds with Coffs

Pipe and Drum in the mass with bands from Manning Valley, Wingham, Port MacquarieHastings, Newcastle and the Newcastle Miners.

Coffs Pipe and Drums band has been playing in the Coffs Coast since 1957, performing at many community events.

The tartan worn is McLeod of Harris tartan.

Some members joined with other country bands in 2005 to form the NSW Highlanders, competing in Scotland at the Glasgow world pipe band championships coming 27th out of 61 grade four bands.

This band has since competed three times in Scotland, twice at the Australia

Zealand Championships.

“We are currently recruiting and practicing to compete at the 2022 New Zealand championships in Auckland.

“The band is always interested in welcoming new members to come along and learn the bagpipes, tenor drums or side drums.

“We have piping lessons on Wednesdays for learners and would be interested in young people to take up snare or tenor drumming.

“Most equipment is supplied along with our kilts,” said Geoff Rogers.

Sleep Out

FROM Page 1

By Andrea FERRARI EVERY night more than 116,000 people in Australia don’t have a safe place to sleep or call home and the number of homeless Australians is a rising issue, with the rate of homelessness increasing by 2.7% each year.

The C.ex Community Crew Sleep Out is an annual community event that raises awareness and funds for local charities that are working to improve these statistics and reduce the number of homeless people and people at risk of homelessness living on the Coffs Coast.

Since its inception in 2014, the C.ex Community Crew Sleep Out has raised and donated $324,820.88 for social welfare charities working to improve the homelessness situation on the Coffs Coast.

This year on June 23 the goal is to raise q

another $70,000.

C.ex Group CEO, John Rafferty said this year’s funds will be evenly distributed to local welfare charity partners: Bridging the Gap Community Services and Warrina Domestic and Family Violence Specialist Services.

John said, “Supporting the community is an integral part of the C.ex Group’s mission and values and we see the Sleep Out as an opportunity to create awareness about homelessness on the Coffs Coast, whilst sleeping out with other businesses in our community to raise funds to assist others.”

John will be sleeping out again in 2021, his sixth year of participating in the event.

Shona Hunter, Marketing Manager C-ex explained the format of the event to News

www.newsofthearea.com.au

C.ex Community Sleep Out.

Of The Area, “Attendees arrive at C.ex Coffs International Stadium at 6pm, cardboard boxes are available for those wishing to use them (donated by Jarod Jones from The Good Guys), dinner is served around 7pm which consists of a bowl of soup and a bread roll, everyone finds a place to set-up the night and most try and get comfy and have an early night.

“In the morning we provide a light breakfast.

“We had heavy rain during the event one year, which was incredibly tough for those that participated, but it definitely made them appreciate a warm bed and safe place to call home.”

OUR ECONOMY IS ON TRACK TO COME BACK Australia’s economy is on track to come back. In fact, our economy outperformed all major advanced economies in 2020. In the second half of 2020, it grew at the fastest pace on record and there are now more people in work than before the pandemic.

CONTINUING OUR COMEBACK To build upon the progress we’ve made, the next steps in the plan provide more support for individuals, families and businesses to help secure the economy and create more jobs.

More homes will be built in more communities thanks to HomeBuilder and the New Home Guarantee.

And there’ll be more opportunities for families to access work with more affordable childcare.

We’re improving employment services so that employers and job seekers are more easily matched.

And our $1.2 billion investment in digital infrastructure, skills, and incentives means that more businesses in communities right across Australia can be part of the thriving digital economy.

Bellingen community signals for safety

By Andrea FERRARI

BELLINGEN residents used Facebook last Tuesday night, June 1, to alert each other for safety as a man allegedly committed theft and dangerous driving on the town’s streets.

While many were shaken up by the events, the Bellingen community rallied for each other signalling the danger, as it unfolded, on the town’s Facebook page.

Bellingen resident Kate* told News Of The Area she posted on FB, “At approx 7:37pm a guy has stolen a caravan at the Bellingen Showground claiming it was his ex’s (which it wasn’t).

“He was ranting and raving angrily saying it was his right to take it.

“It wasn’t hooked up properly to his ute and it

swung off as he’s been driving.

“It is now wedged into the rock garden bed in between the Medical Centre and the Providore.

“The guy continued to drive up Wheatley St, purposely ramming into parked cars.

“Then has headed into Sunset Ridge, into Kenny Close, hitting more cars along the way and has abandoned the ute.

“He’s run off into the nearby dam near Planet Lighting.

“The gentleman who owns the caravan has been notified and is waiting for police before trying to remove it.”

According to locals, some nine cars were damaged in total.

“We were in the car that was just behind him.

“I know this as we have a

doorbell cam.”

Rebecca* told News Of The Area, “There were pieces of the ute at the top of our street

and parts of the car were scraping on the road.

“I guess there is always a reason for these things happening and it’s usually personal.”

On Monday (June 7) Bellingen Police told News Of The Area, “We’re still investigating”. *First names used only.

Kristy’s Cystic Fibrosis event raises almost $10k

By Andrea FERRARI

KRISTY Hodges’s recent Cystic Fibrosis (CF) fundraising and awareness event raised almost $10,000.

Kristy told News Of The Area, “During the week we did a final count of monies raised and all payments and donations amounted to $9,171.05.”

This will help fund Kristy’s campaign to get CF medication, Trikafta on the Australian Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme.

Kristy has a long list of thank-yous starting off with those who shared the Trikafta awareness element of her event.

“Supporting and promoting Trikafta awareness exceeds monetary value as I believe this is a topic which needs to be heard and we need to make people in power listen and see firsthand the results of this amazing drug.

CORAMBA Hotel welcomes Boukabou playing solo on Saturday night, June 12, as part of his Mid North Coast tour.

A staple of the Australian music landscape, Boukabou plays almost every

night somewhere on the road.

“This is my first show in Coramba,” Jamel Boukabou told News Of The Area.

“I have been touring the Mid North Coast for many years and I’m really looking forward to this one.

be a fun night for all.

“I have a great working relationship with an agent there and I think it will be a great fit.

“I’ll feature a few songs from my back catalogue, my latest single 'Did I Come Across That Way', from my latest LP '7' and of course all the classics.

“I also have a request book that floats around at shows, which is quite popular,” he said.

Opening song is not decided, Boukabou goes with the flow.

“Depends on the audience, but probably 'I Won't Back Down' by Tom Petty,” Jamel said.

Performing a solo show on Saturday, Boukabou also plays duo and bands with local musicians in the area.

Boukabou is playing Grafton the night before and Port Macquarie on Sunday.

“I currently live in Byron Bay so as long as there are no more lockdowns, I will continue to tour and play Mid North Coast monthly so be sure to drop in, say g'day and request a song at any of my shows,” said Jamel.

With seven albums under his belt and years of national and worldwide touring, he has performed and worked over the years with the likes of Andy Cichon (Billy Joel), Paul Wheeler (Icehouse, Sneaky Sound System), Warren Trout (Colin Hay) and Dario Bortolin (Bee Gees, Jimmy Barnes).

The resulting experiences make Boukabou a force to be reckoned with - a seasoned master of performance.

Restoration of Bonville Catchment underway THE restoration of native vegetation in Bonville Creek is underway with local environmental restoration organisation Envite working with local landholders to manage riparian areas on their property.

Each of the properties have been accessed under the Land for Wildlife program by a restoration ecologist and provided with a property assessment plan outlining recommendations for property management.

Evite Area Manager Environmental Services

Mick Webb said professional bush regenerators have utilised these plans and worked with landholders to use best practice weed control techniques to firstly undertake weed control activities and secondly revegetate riparian areas.

“The landholders are all committed to conservation and ecological restoration,” Mr Webb said.

Evite Supervisor Jason Page said the revegetation of 700 trees had also been carried out.

“Locally sourced native

tube stock is planted to establish native plants along the riverbank,” Mr Page said.

“Planting will contribute to stable stream bank, erosion reduction, improved water quality and health and connectivity of riparian corridors.”

Mr Page said primary koala food trees have also been included in the planting, providing food for local koalas and other native mammals and birds for many years to come.

The Bonville catchment area lies within a regional

Local NPWS Ranger Martin Smith supports the restoration project and said it is the beginning of a longerterm strategy that will grow and radiate outward, permanently reducing the prevalence of problem weeds especially Camphor Laurel in the remnant forests of Bonville and bring back koalas by replacing weeds with primary koala food trees.

Mr Webb said the Bonville Creek estuary

catchment system represents both visually intact and aesthetically pleasing tributaries in rural residential areas of the Coffs Harbour Local Government Area.

“It provides the catalyst of a healthy estuary system feeding popular recreational use downstream,” Mr Webb said. “Swimming, recreational fishing and boating are the major pursuits undertaken within the estuary.

“Sections of the upper catchment are in poor condition especially along the Advertisement

creek bank which adversely impacts estuary condition including the increase in weed species which readily outcompetes native trees for space, soil nutrients, moisture and sunlight.”

To get involved in the restoration project or to find out about upcoming events in the Bonville Catchment contact Mick Webb at Envite via email mickw@envite.org. au.

This project is an initiative delivered by Coffs Harbour City Council, as part of the Environmental Levy Grants Program.

WITH a week to go before the June 17 deadline, the Coffs Harbour Greens have thrown their support behind the artificial reef initiative that was announced by Member for Coffs Harbour, Gurmesh Singh, in April.

Artificial reefs have become more common in recent years in NSW waters and the NSW Department of Primary Industries has called for expressions of interest (EOI) for two new artificial reef locations.

Mr Singh said, “I’m glad the Greens are supporting my bid to have an artificial reef off Coffs Harbour.”

He pointed out the benefits for diving and recreational fishing of such a reef.

Mr Singh reiterated that the expressions

Greens spokesperson, Jonathan Cassell, a keen spearfisherman, sees the reef as a fantastic opportunity for the Coffs Harbour community.

Mr Cassell said, “Research shows the benefits artificial reefs bring to communities and the coastal environment while minimising ecological impacts.

“As a member of a local spearfishing club, I’m excited that this reef could help protect the health of our ocean as well as bringing lasting benefits to the local fishing community,” he said.

Mr Cassell said the Greens have a history of supporting marine conservation, and consequently see evidence-based artificial reefs as playing an important role in providing habitat and strengthening biodiversity outcomes.

He said that Coffs Harbour is well placed to be chosen as a new location for an artificial reef because of its strong visitor economy, excellent boat ramp facilities, established tourism industry and a suitably flat sandy ocean floor environment.

“This reef could be an important boost for Coffs Harbour’s tourism industry providing more reasons for people to enjoy our wonderful Coffs Coast,” Mr Cassell said.

He said that the Greens see the artificial reef as an opportunity to work together with the National Party to secure better outcomes for the fishing community and the wider environment.

Mr Cassell said, “When 70% of recreational fishers are in support of no-take sanctuary zones it shows that most are aware of the need for sustainable fisheries management.”

He stressed that anyone who hasn’t already done so should get behind this initiative of the State Government.

Coffs Council confirms stance on mobile towers COFFS Harbour City Council has affirmed its position against the placement of telecommunications towers within 500 metres of schools and child care facilities in a draft Provision of Telecommunications Infrastructure Policy.

The draft policy was developed by Council to outline Council’s expectations for the appropriate provision of telecommunications infrastructure in situations where Council has a role in the development process.

The draft policy has been created despite Council recently approving the placement of a 25 metre high Optus telecommunications tower at Advocate Park, Coffs Harbour, to service Coffs Harbour Education Campus (CHEC).

The telecommunications tower, which will be situated on the southeast corner of Hogbin Drive and Stadium Drive opposite CHEC, was narrowly approved by councillors four votes

to three following much Council debate.

A telecommunication tower has previously been placed along Beach Street, Woolgoolga, just down the road from Woolgoolga Public School.

Coffs Harbour City councillors discussed the contentious issue at Council’s ordinary meeting on Thursday 27 May with Cr Sally Townley stating it was “a really difficult issue” and Cr George Cecato stating that he supported the Council’s policy to place the towers “500 metres away from schools”.

Cr Michael Adendorff, however, stated that the policy would restrict Council’s decision making ability in regards to the placement of future telecommunications towers.

“There is a general legal principle that decision makers cannot make decisions that interfere with future decisions, unless there is a law that says these things can’t be within 500 metres; there is no such law,” Cr Adendorff said.

“We are limiting or restricting our own decision making.”

Coffs Harbour Mayor Denise Knight said the draft policy would guide the Council in making future decisions on the placement of telecommunications towers in the region.

Council’s General Manager Steve McGrath confirmed this and stated “you are sending a signal that this Council is not supportive of those structures within 500 metres of those facilities”.

Councillors unanimously resolved to amend the draft Provision of Telecommunications Infrastructure Policy and draft Coffs Harbour Development Control Plan 2015 (Telecommunications Facilities) to reflect the principle that Council is not supportive of telecommunications towers in close proximity (500m) to schools and child care facilities, and to endorse, publicly exhibit and carry out stakeholder consultation on the updated draft Provision of Telecommunications Infrastructure Policy for 28 days.

Council will also endorse and publicly exhibit a

draft amendment to the Coffs Harbour City Council Community Participation and Engagement Plan for 28 days, and endorse, publicly exhibit and carry out stakeholder consultation on the updated draft Coffs

A NEW consent package is being developed for NSW schools, focusing on support for teachers and engagement with parents.

NSW Minister for Education Sarah Mitchell announced the new suite of initiatives on Sunday 30 May as the first major step following the Statement of Intent signed by all three school sectors earlier this year.

“This government has made very clear its intentions to work with the community to combat sexual violence,”

Ms Mitchell said.

“Schools play an important role, side by side with parents, to instil the values in our students and children on what is acceptable behaviour and how to foster respectful relationships.

“To support teaching of respectful relationships, a new range of curriculumaligned teaching and learning resources – aligned with the Personal Development, Health and Physical Education (PDHPE) curriculum – will be created

for teachers.”

Ms Mitchell said the resources will be available on the Department of Education’s Learning Resources Hub. “They will be quality assured and produced by subject-matter experts,” Ms Mitchell said.

“Our consent curriculum content in the PDHPE curriculum is the strongest in Australia and these resources will ensure teachers can deliver it in the best way possible.”

The resources will

include lesson sequences and stage-appropriate teaching activities that teachers can use or adapt to assist them in the classroom.

“We will be able to monitor the uptake of these resources to know which ones are being used most in schools and where more support is needed,” Ms Mitchell said.

The Department of Education has also partnered with the Federation of Parents and Citizens Associations of NSW and, as a first step, will hold the first

A proposal is currently being advertised to install a new Telstra mobile phone base station within

webinar for all public school P&Cs this month.

The webinar will be an opportunity for P&C members to find out more about the Statement of Intent, what students currently learn through the curriculum, and how parents and carers can stay engaged in the discussion.

“Parents are partners in their child’s education,” Ms Mitchell said.

“I want to know they have everything they need to have these important conversations with their children.”

In Term 3, the Department will also invite

the South Coffs Harbour industrial area at O’Keefe Drive, Coffs Harbour, which will consist of a 30m monopole, six 4G panel antennas and three 5G panel antennas.

P&C members and other representative parent groups to participate in a survey.

“Through the survey, we will learn more about parents’ current understanding of consent education and the kind of supports they would find helpful in our collective effort to help young people build healthy and respectful relationships,” Ms Mitchell said.

The resources will be available to all teachers in the coming school term.

Parents will receive more information on the webinar and survey via their P&C or local school.

Free Bushfire Legal Assistance

By Sandra MOON THE LAW Society of New South Wales is encouraging local farmers and small business owners in the Coffs Harbour, Bellingen, Nambucca and Clarence Valley Local Government Areas (LGAs), who still

haven’t resolved legal matters arising from the 2019-20 bushfires, to talk to their local solicitor about accessing free legal advice.

Under the Commonwealth funded Bushfire Legal Aid Scheme primary producers and small business owners who are ineligible for free legal aid, can ask their private solicitor to apply for funding

of two thousand dollars to help resolve legal matters arising from the bushfires and up to five thousand dollars for related expenses.

Co-President of the Coffs Harbour & Clarence River Law Society, Cassandra Banks said legal issues arising from the bushfires can include insurance disputes, commercial leases, contract disputes, banking, planning and employment issues.

However, Ms Banks said, farmers and small business owners in the Coffs Harbour,

q Bushfire affected farmers and business owners are urged to get their free legal advice before the end of June.

q

The program has been well received nationwide.

Bellingen, Nambucca and Clarence Valley LGAs need to be aware that, if they are eligible under the scheme, their solicitor must apply for the grants by 30 June 2021.

“If there are farmers and small business owners that are yet to resolve legal issues arising from the bushfires, they should talk to their solicitor about applying for this funding as soon as possible,” she said.

“After that you can't apply so it's important to get in now and get some advice and if there is an issue you can get funding for you can get your application in now,” she said.

“There is the possibility of extensions and a solicitor can make a case to the grants department who will assess on a case by case basis to consider additional funding.

“This process doesn’t involve a lot of red tape and solicitors don’t need to jump through hoops to apply for these grants.

“Solicitors just need to register once via Legal Aid’s Grants Online Portal (if they are not already registered) and then they can apply for the grants.”

Under the funding eligible businesses or primary producers with more than

+Years

one bushfire related legal matter can receive more than one approval for legal services and related expenses.

The funding is available for items such as insurance disputes, commercial leases, contract disputes, planning and building law, local government disputes, entitlements to government grants and schemes, credit and debt, banking, fencing issues, property law and employment law issues for employers.

The funding is in addition to legal assistance already available for individuals after a disaster.

Hope and Treasures for the Homeless

By David WIGLEY HOPE for the Homeless have combined two of their stores, The Hope Shop and Trendy Treasures to create a new shop called Hope and Treasures which is on the Pacific Highway at 51 Grafton Street, Coffs Harbour.

Home for the Homeless founder Dean Evers explained more about the new shop.

“We have our everyday clothing range, every item is two dollars, there’s some great bargains in that section, DVDs, books and CDs are all one dollar each which are also very popular.

“Then there’s our ticketed item section which has stunning vintage evening wear, dresses you might see in old movies which are no longer available these days.

“We also have bridal wear, gowns, retro and bohemian items, things which are unique.

“Having a place like

this in the centre of town gives us a footprint which is closer to the community so we can help more people,” said Dean.

Bellingen Shop manager, Terese Pittari has been a volunteer with Hope for the Homeless for four years.

“I’ve been helping Dean for four years now, my passion is helping homeless people, I enjoy what I do.

“People are homeless in our neighbourhood for a number of reasons such as domestic violence or people returning from rehabilitation.

“We have women coming here from a domestic violence situation with nothing and we give them whatever we can such as clothes, basically anything we have in the shop.

“We had a lady with five kids who found a new place but had nothing.

“We decked her house out with the essentials she needed.

“I run one of the charity’s stores in Bellingen called A Little Bit Gypsy and we have eight volunteers helping to

make that work.

“The stuff is really nice and is well supported both by the local community and tourists.

“We had a gentleman walk into the Bellingen shop a couple of Friday’s ago, he was sleeping under a tarp with his partner and their dog and it was one of the wettest weekends of the year.

“We gave them warm clothes, sleeping bags, emergency food and some food for the dog, it made me happy we were able to help,“ smiled Terese.

Local lady’s generosity helps the homeless

By David TUNE

JENNY Barnier had an horrendous experience 25 years ago that has led to her regularly supplying baked goods for homeless people in Coffs Harbour.

Her ten-year-old daughter was severely injured in a multi-vehicle car crash and was left unable to walk or care for herself for many weeks, and during this time Jenny found it difficult to provide for her family.

She was grateful for the support of three friends who cooked and delivered meals for them at a time when she wasn’t able to do so.

This experience influenced

her to start cooking for friends and local people who were ill, and a chance encounter with some women who were living in their cars while escaping domestic violence led her to realise that there was an opportunity for her to make a small but meaningful difference in other people’s lives.

Jenny connected with the Ozgroup Co-op who have donated blueberry seconds (fruit that wasn’t of high enough quality for the fresh market) and then spoke to local growers who have supplied excess bananas and she has used the produce to make fresh muffins that she delivers to Pete’s Place at the Community Village for distribution to local homeless

people.

As well as about three dozen muffins she makes and delivers Anzac Biscuits and scones each week.

A cancer survivor herself, Jenny was also involved in recent Cancer Council ‘Biggest Morning Tea’ fundraising events and made sure that any leftover food went to a good cause via Pete’s Place.

Jenny told News Of The Area, “Helping people doesn’t have to cost millions of dollars, a batch of Anzac biscuits only costs a few dollars to make and can help people who are in a difficult time on their lives feel valued and supported, and I find that helping others helps me, and keeps me engaged with our community.”

Flight of many a fancy kite THE first Kite Flying Festival for Coffs Harbour is coming to town on Sunday 27 June 2021.

With a history of five years in Sydney and launched in Canberra in 2020, the big, bright Kite Festival will land at the city’s Brelsford Park.

“Coffs Harbour Council has been very helpful and accommodating,” organiser Bijal Trivedi told News Of The Area.

It’s a fun family day

where kite flying is king for the day.

Entry is free and kites can be purchased at the organisers stall on the day.

“We will be selling the big Chinese-style kites and the traditional Indian kites which are made from paper – they range from about $15 - $50 or up to $80.

“If people bring their own kites they might have sharp threads which can be dangerous in an openground event,” said Bijal.

“This is not a professional kite-flying event – it’s for family fun, and you can just come along and watch if you like.

“On our stall we will help people assemble their kites and provide help with flying if they need it.”

There will be rides for small children and a jumping castle.

“We have food trucks booked from sweet to savory and there’s music, with a DJ.

Kites come in all shapes and sizes – available at the festival.

“Bring your picnic rug and enjoy the spectacle,” said Bijal.

When posed the question, “Do you need wind?”, Bijal replied succinctly, “Yes”.

“I think we’ll be fine with the weather on the Coffs Coast – we don’t want too much wind either.”

So, it’s back to the Goldilocks Principle – not too much and not too little…just the right amount please.

Manga Mania at The National Cartoon Gallery

By Andrea FERRARI MANGA Mania is an extraordinary art exhibition arriving at The National Cartoon Gallery on June 18 running until August 15, 2021.

An influential Japanese art subculture, Manga is growing in popularity around the world.

It’s a style many of us would recognise while not knowing its name.

Cartoon-like, it is a way of expressing a story, an adventure or an issue.

q

With a resurgence of interest across social media, Manga art is celebrated internationally on TikTok and in Japan, the online platform for artists, PIXIV. Chris Durham, Manager, National Cartoon Gallery told News Of The Area, “The Japanese Embassy approached the National Cartoon Gallery in 2020 about hosting an exhibition of winning entries from the 14th International Manga Awards.

“These awards attract entries from Manga artists

from all over Southeast Asia.

“The gallery was interested in putting on another Manga exhibition, the first one since 1996.

“The growing interest in Manga, particularly amongst children and young adults has spread worldwide, so we were delighted with this opportunity to bring Manga to the Coffs Coast region.”

The Gallery has invited Australian Manga artists to contribute their own works to add to the exhibition with over 60 works, making this an international collaboration.

“We have teamed with the Coffs Harbour chapter of the Australia-Japan Society to make this a special exhibition and are

On Saturday, Russell hosted a private memorial service for his beloved father in a chapel on his Nana Glen property which he said his dad had loved.

“He was fascinated by it,” Russell stated on his Facebook page before the

memorial.

“Pretty sure he’d be pleased.”

The chapel has held weddings (including Russell’s 2003 wedding to Danielle Spencer), string quartets, soloists, opera singers, meditation, prayer, and yoga over the years, and now it’s first funeral/ memorial.

Russell posted footage

“Don’t hang out with glass half full, glass half empty people… hang out with people who know the

Story Dog making reading fun at Bonville Primary School q

By David WIGLEY NITRO the Story Dog has been visiting Bonville Primary School with handler Jill Evans making reading fun for children and improving literacy.

Jill Evans explained some of the benefits of reading with Nitro.

“Reading to a dog provides a calm, relaxed environment which is conducive to learning in a fun atmosphere.

“Many children don’t feel comfortable reading in public, reading to Nitro removes that apprehension, the kids look forward to seeing him on Friday mornings and Nitro loves children, they enjoy reading to him.

“Nitro listens patiently and the children’s confidence increases, it is a nonjudgemental setting, the children's focus improves, their literacy skills increase and their love of learning grows.

Jill said it’s the accepting, loving nature of dogs which provides the magic.

“The children relax, open up, try harder and have fun while reading to a friendly, calm dog. Woof!”

And it seems like Nitro gets a lot out of it as well.

"When I reach for Nitro's Story Dog jacket, his whole body wriggles with joy and he races to the car and waits excitedly by the door.

“He really looks forward to going to volunteer at Bonville Primary School.

“Sometimes when children read to an adult they stop when they can’t read a difficult word and the adult instinctively comes to the rescue, whereas Nitro just tilts his head and the child has a good go at reading the word and overcomes the obstacle

by themselves, it’s a subtle way of improving resilience,” said Jill.

Jill explained the three year old Koolie purebred is the only Story Dog in Coffs Harbour and the organisation is looking for more Story Dogs and sponsors of Story Dogs.

“Nitro is the only Story Dog in the Coffs Harbour region so if there’s any volunteers who have a calm dog with a good temperament that would like to help children improve their reading and want more information then let us know, either through the website at www.storydogs.org.au/.”

Mixed Fortunes With Bypass Tunnels SUSAN Kerridge had plans for her family banana farm when she took it over.

After studying Environmental Science, she decided to implement strategies that included wildlife refuges as part of a sustainable farming plan.

When the initial plan for the bypass was released, Ms Kerridge said it had no land bridges, tunnels or land links, not even for humans.

She went to many meetings and proposed more land crossings and links.

According to Ms Kerridge, the planners decided on tunnels, north of her property, and, naturally, she was delighted with that.

Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) wanted to buy the northern area of almost 3000m2 and also wanted access to her property.

Because the bypass would be approximately 100m from Ms Kerridge’s western boundary, a

valuation was carried out to determine an amount of compensation as a result of the disturbances and the subsequent devaluation of her property value.

However, when the plans were altered to include tunnels, the land was not needed.

Unfortunately for Ms Kerridge, she was informed over the phone that RMS had also withdrawn the environmental compensation assessment, which, in her opinion, was not related to the tunnels.

She feels that the impacts will still cause a drop in income from ecotourism/camping options, and Ms Kerridge may have to relocate her livestock.

She said that RMS is not approachable or willing to discuss the matter with her.

When approached

by News Of The Area, a Transport for NSW spokesperson said the current design of the bypass alignment through Shephards Lane tunnel no longer impacts Ms Kerridge’s property

as the project can be accommodated within already acquired property.

“Under the Just Terms Land Acquisition Act, compensation is only payable to properties directly impacted and requiring property acquisition,” he said.

The spokesperson said that Transport for NSW is working with residents and stakeholders to mitigate impacts during the building process and a Construction Noise and Vibration Management Plan will be implemented to reduce impacts to residents.

He said that some residents are eligible for at-house noise mitigation including seals to windows and doors, reglazing, installing air conditioning, insulation or relining of exposed walls.

Ms Kerridge said, “I am really happy that there are tunnels that create land bridges for wildlife.”

However, she is not happy that the devaluation of her land and her potential loss of income has, to date, been disregarded.

SIZZLING UP A NEW FUTURE

MEET THE NEW MANAGER OF BARBEQUES GALORE COFFS HARBOUR

A rising star of Australia’s favourite BBQ-ing retailer, Barbeques Galore, Hannah Hales has been appointed as the new manager of Barbeques Galore Coffs Harbour.

23 years old Barbeques Galore staffer, Hannah, joins the store following a rapid rise through the ranks in just four years with Barbeques Galore in other interstate stores.

Starting as a casual worker and quickly becoming 2IC in just under six months at a Queensland operated Barbeques Galore store, Hales has since gone on to become a key member of the Barbeques Galore family – and promises to bring renewed energy to the store.

NAMES L TO R: Phil Braddick, Hannah Hales Advertorial: Barbeques Galore promises to welcome back the community with passion, friendly service, and an exciting range of products.

Barbeques Galore Regional Manager, Kathy Jennings said Hannah is well equipped to welcome locals back with her team, having supported other teams nationally in other capacities.

“Hannah has been instrumental in leadership and coaching, as well as stepping up in other roles within the national team, including the country wide stocktake and merchandising team.

“I’m really passionate about barbequing – there’s something about connecting experiences over the flame that gets me excited, so there’s no better place to love what you do and call it “work,” said Hales.

“When it comes to excelling in customer service and giving everyone who walks through the doors a helping hand, Hannah is ideal for the job,” added Hannah’s first manager, Apsley store manager, John Manley.

“I can’t wait to reintroduce locals to just how exciting barbequing is, with a warm and friendly team alongside me,” added Hales.

To meet Hannah and the team plus enjoy a delicious free snack from the barbie, head along to Barbeques Galore Coffs Harbour Community Barbeque on Saturday, 19th June from 10am – 2pm.

Hailing from Queensland and making the move to NSW for the role, Hales is looking forward to cooking up an experience locals will savour.

The brand continues to scale nationally and invest in the future to create unrivalled customer experiences, with the rolling-out of new company owned and franchise stores across Australia.

From its humble beginnings 45 years ago, Barbeques Galore continues to lead the industry with the best range, best brands, best value and best experience; and the new team can’t wait to help the Coffs Harbour community barbeque better.

“As a newcomer to Coffs Harbour, I am so excited to meet everyone and, with my dedicated team, give each customer a fresh barbequing experience to really get them excited.”

“We have a team eager to help our customers with any of their barbequing needs – this team is incredible, and nothing is too big or too small to help with, so come in and say g’day,” added Hales.

STILL Finalists revealed COFFS Harbour Regional Gallery has unveiled its shortlist of finalists from a record number of entries by artists across Australia, all vying for the $30,000 prize, Still: National Still Life Award 2021.

Attracting artworks in the genre of still life, this year’s Still: National Still Life Award, has set a new standard in the diversity of mediums, subject matter and still life expressions.

Over 1000 entries were received for the biennial award, a massive 40% increase over the previous Still in 2019.

This didn’t make the selection panel’s job easy according to Coffs Harbour Regional Gallery’s Catherine Fogarty.

“It was a tough job to narrow down to the 59 finalists, as there was so much great work from every state and territory, with artists at varying stages of their careers,” said Ms Fogarty.

“The ever increasing number of entries to this award demonstrates the still life genre resonates with contemporary artists regardless of what medium they work in.”

The panel also featured avid art collector Lisa

Paulsen and Katina Davidson, Curator Indigenous Australian Art, Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art. Ms Davidson said she was energised to see such diverse practices across the entries which was reflected in the final selection.

“Still life can represent so much more than just objects and extends from notions of life and death through to contemporary existence and existential crisis,” said Ms Davidson.

“An impressive level of innovation was applied to traditional still life

materials, including using things like floristry foam (oasis), digital coding and even everyday plastics.

“This was complemented by stunning oil paintings and lush photographs that will no doubt be familiar to visitors when considering still life.”

Paramedic industrial action

By Andrea FERRARI

FAIR PAY for NSW paramedics is the motive for the day of industrial action on 10 June.

The Health Services Union (HSU) paramedics will take this historic, state-wide stand against New South Wales Treasurer, Dominic Perrottet’s proposal to cut their pay, by only attending the most urgent, life threatening emergencies.

Steve Fraser, VP Northern Rivers/Mid North Coast HSU and an Operational Paramedic, told News Of The Area, “The NSW paramedics are the lowest paid in Australia.

“Paramedics in all states are held to the same standards q

across the nation but we’re paid less that our colleagues in other states.”

Last year paramedics were awarded a 0.3 per cent rise.

This year, the Government’s proposed 1.5 per cent pay increase offer is again less than inflation, which NSW Treasury currently forecasts at 2.2 per cent for the coming year.

In the last year paramedics were exposed to COVID-19, floods, and before that, the bushfires.

“Paramedics have had enough,” said Steve.

“We’re just seeking equality with the other states as we have the same registration fees and general costs to keep

up with the times – we’re grossly underpaid and falling backwards.

“Paramedics are making life-saving decisions every day and getting $38 per hour – that’s after four years of uni and ongoing education costs.

“Our paramedics were required to transport

COVID-positive patients, without adequate protective equipment,” said Gerard Hayes, HSU NSW Secretary.

“NSW paramedics are already the worst paid in the country and personally carry the cost of their professional registration and education,” Gerard reiterated.

www.newsofthearea.com.au q The graph shows pay comparisons with NSW at the lowest.

“We are flagging this action well in advance and have designed it to avoid impacting life threatening emergencies.”

The HSU executive predicts there will, however, be significant disruption on the day.

Steve added, “The trouble

with us is that we care about what we do - we will be attending life threatening incidents…car accidents and heart attacks but not minor injuries.” “(Treasurer) Dominic Perrottet can avert all of this by coming to the table with a fair pay offer.”

Paramedics take action for fair pay.

100th birthday for First Fleet ancestor

By Andrea FERRARI

HISTORY in the making as Olive Wade celebrates her 100th birthday on June 5, 2021 in Coffs Harbour.

The great, great, grandmother has an abundance of living relatives and remarkable ancestry.

Olive is related to Ann Forbes, who as a sixteen-yearold landed in Australia on the first fleet in 1788.

“Mum is a full member of the Fellowship of First Fleeters,” Jean Innes, Olive’s daughter, told News Of The

q

Area.

Forty-five family members joined Olive on her birthday including five great great grandchildren and “God knows how many great grandchildren,” said Jean.

Born Olive Ellen into her family’s farm at Kyogle, “they all had their jobs to do”.

This period brings with it many memories.

“When her sister May teased her youngest sister, Dulcie, about not dusting properly in the corners, Dulcie would say, ‘I’ll have a round house, so I don’t have to dust

the corners’…a family saying that has stuck to this day,” laughed Jean.

When World War Two broke out, Olive told her dad she would join the Nursing Corps or get married, well the latter was the case and she “followed Dad (Franklyn) around the country”.

The passing of Olive’s mother after the War saw the growing family move back to the farm in Kyogle.

“My granddad went off to live in Byron – a very different place in the 1950s to what it is today, there was the whaling station and the abattoir,” said Jean.

In 1972, in the process

of selling the farm, Olive’s husband passed.

“Mum moved to Woolgoolga where her eldest son, Bob lived – he built her a house.

“She lived in that house independently until she was 98.

“She had a beautiful garden but after a fall and her eye-sight failing she moved into the nursing home where she is today.

“Mum drove a tractor as soon as her legs were long enough to reach the clutch; she cooked good homegrown food, and always made beautiful crochet coat hangers.

“I always said, ‘treasure them because the day will come when she can’t do any more’.”

QBD Books Opening in Coffs

By Sandra MOON QBD Books, Australia’s largest Australian-owned and operated book retailer, are expanding into Coffs Harbour and opening their new store this weekend.

The store will be the only QBD Books store located between the Gold Coast and Newcastle.

The investment in regional Australia reflects QBD Books’ ongoing growth which will bring the total number of QBD Books stores nationally to eighty one.

CEO of QBD Books, Mr Nicholas Croydon, said QBD’s expansion is bucking the trend of a decline in bricks and mortar bookstores and online shopping with the Book Depository, Amazon and Booktopia.

“In regional Australia we find when we open a bookstore, just like in Hervey Bay, shoppers flock back in store because they had no choice except to buy online.

“People want to talk to someone who loves books and they want to meet like minded people,” Mr Croydon said.

“We visited Park Beach

Plaza four times to ensure there was high traffic and it made sense to me that we could do a viable trade there with no other bookstore on site to

compete with,” he added.

All the QBD stores are company owned so don’t rely on franchise investment.

Mr Croydon said he hopes to have continued

q Michael Robotham will be signing books at the opening at 2pm at Shop T27, Park Beach Plaza, 253 Pacific Highway.

q A limited number of signed advanced copies of ‘When You Are Mine’ will be given away.

QBD’s expansion by up to one hundred stores by Christmas.

Special guest and award-winning author of ‘The Secrets She Keeps’, Michael Robotham, will be in attendance to officially open the store on Saturday 12 June at 2 pm, and to sign copies of his books.

QBD will also be giving away a limited number of signed advance copies of his new book ‘When You Are

Mine’.

QBD Books CEO and well-known children’s author, Nick Croydon, will also be present.

Mr Croydon told News of The Area, “It’s fortuitous that we will have Michael Robotham opening the store in between his events at the Bellingen Readers and Writers Festival.

“We are lucky to have an A-lister like him so if anyone wants to come and get some

Michael Robotham books signed, come down.”

“I am looking forward to coming down there from Brisbane on Saturday and looking forward to seeing all the people of Coffs Harbour and showing them a beautiful new QBD store.

The store will be trading from 9 am - 6 pm and will offer discount vouchers to any book lover who purchases an item on the day.

Saltwater Freshwater Arts 2021 comes to Coffs Harbour STORIES of culture and connection are woven into works exhibiting extraordinary talent, in this celebration of First Nations’ artists from the NSW Mid North Coast, coming to Coffs Harbour Regional Gallery from June 12.

The 2021 Saltwater Freshwater Aboriginal Art Award and Contemporary Cultural Objects Exhibition, features work by artists spanning the Worimi, Biripi, Dunghutti and Gumbaynggirr nations that make up the Saltwater Freshwater region.

This year the exhibition is curated by Alison Williams of Wadjar Regional Indigenous Gallery, who says creating a work connects first nation creatives to their heritage, ancestry and lands.

“It represents the culmination of history and the continuation of story, whether it be through painting, dance, song, film and crafts,” Alison said.

“Because health and wellbeing within a First Nation context extends beyond that of an individual, it is important to recognise the social, spiritual,

emotional and cultural wellbeing of the entire community is supported through the arts and this biennial art award.”

This year’s exhibition includes a stunning showcase of fibre art fashion created by eight weavers from across the Saltwater Freshwater region.

Developing their design concepts between the four nations over 6 months in 2020, the weavers overcame distance during COVID-19 restrictions by meeting regularly online to share ideas and provide support.

The resulting woven garments showcase refined skills and diversity of expression with materials chosen for their cultural significance including possum skin, paperbark and lomandra.

The winner of this year’s Saltwater Freshwater Aboriginal Art Award is Gus Kelly, for his work titled Narra Dhalayi (Sad Girl), 2020.

Using dark and sombre tones, Kelly’s depiction of an Aboriginal child in portraiture echoes fear, loss and stolen generations.

Mr Pryce has commented on several platforms that he has several ideas about the proposed new Cultural and Civic Space and if elected as Mayor, will pursue those ideas in consultation with other members of the Council and the building contractors.

He believes the Cultural and Civic Space can be changed around, depending at what stage the construction is at by September.

“Personally, I would

Kelly’s unusual caricature-style portraiture reflects the crude perception of First Nation people by early European settlers.

Also exhibited are the three highly commended works by Nicolle Duncan, Y.O.W.A and Danielle Burford.

Coffs Harbour Regional Gallery has been a touring partner since the award was established in 2017 as a biennial event. Saltwater Freshwater Arts Alliance aims to encourage a sense of ownership of mainstream gallery spaces by local Aboriginal people, instilling pride in having their culture

promoted and celebrated by the wider community.

The 2021 exhibition is open to the public at Coffs Harbour Regional Gallery from 12 June to 7 August, launching the gallery’s 20th Anniversary celebrations. The tour then continues on to Sydney’s Boomalli Aboriginal Art Gallery, Taree’s Manning Regional Art Gallery, before finishing at Wadjar Regional Indigenous Gallery, in Corindi Beach.

The Saltwater Freshwater Aboriginal Art Award & Contemporary Cultural Objects Exhibition runs from 12 June – 7 August at Coffs Harbour Regional Gallery and is proudly supported by the Saltwater Freshwater Arts Alliance Aboriginal Corporation. Also supported through the Australian Government’s Indigenous Languages and Arts program and the NSW Government through Create NSW, in collaboration with gallery partners.

Mr Pryce said housing is one of the biggest challenges we face.

“The housing crisis has been exacerbated by the slow release of residential land onto the market.

“The land is there, it is just locked up due to the slowness of processes.

“An urgent deployment of either existing staff and/or engagement of qualified temporary staff to fast track the process is warranted.”

There are some longer term initiatives that Mr Pryce says he intends to release closer to September 4.

Nana Glen Bale Out!

By Andrea FERRARI THOUSANDS and thousands was the precise figure quoted by parking volunteers directing incoming traffic, for numbers attending the Nana Glen Bale Out!.

Suffice to say a lot of locals and beyond came to enjoy the sunny winter’s afternoon-into-evening on Saturday June 5 at Nana Glen Equestrian Centre.

Fiona Barden, Section Leader of Industry and Destination Development at Coffs Harbour City Council was running the MyCoffs stand.

“We’ve run a number of Bale Out! events around the region - the idea is to bring q

communities together after a lot of disconnection,” Fiona told News Of The Area.

“We’re running this one in conjunction with Orara Valley Progress Association.

“There’s a series of music performances topped off with Creedence and Friends, the tribute band; there’s things for the kids, pony rides, food trucks and a bonfire looked after by the Rural Fire Service.”

Jane Ormsby, Deputy Captain of the Rural Fire Service at Nana Glen was hoisting children into the cab of the fire truck for them to get a feeling of what it’s like inside the vehicle and what the trucks can do for them.

Jane told News Of The

Teachers Protest Casual Teacher Shortages

By Andrew VIVIAN

TEACHERS at high schools across the Coffs Coast have taken industrial action in recent weeks to highlight staffing shortages.

Ian Watson, the Regional Coordinator for the NSW Teachers’ Federation told News Of The Area that one local high school has already had 40 days this year when classes where the teacher was on leave were not covered.

A spokesperson for the Department of Education told News Of The Area, “On May 26 teachers at Toormina High School held a 20-minute stop-work meeting from 11:50am.

“On June 1, 43 teachers at Coffs Harbour High School held a ten minute stop-work meeting from 11.30am during recess just outside the school boundary.”

The spokesperson said that there is one teacher vacancy at Toormina High School which is currently in the process of being filled and that every class at the school is staffed by qualified teachers.

He said that Coffs Harbour High School

has no permanent teacher vacancies.

Mr Watson said that the issue is not how many permanent teacher vacancies there are, but about personnel planning and the availability of casual teachers.

He said that there are 1000 permanent teacher vacancies across the state.

“This means that, every day, there are at least 1000 classes without a qualified permanent teacher in front of them,” he said.

“The government has no plan to solve the current crisis let alone cope with increased enrolments in the future.”

He pointed out that the recent Gallup report into the work of teachers indicated that salaries and conditions are not attracting people to become teachers.

The Teachers’ Federation says that there has not been any reduction in face to face teaching in NSW high schools in 60 years, despite significant increases in nonclassroom responsibilities.

Dr Gallup’s report recommended an increase in the entitlement of all schools so that the schools have the capacity to cope

Mr Watson cited the Rorris Report, commissioned by the Teachers’ Federation, which said that a further 11,000 public school teachers are needed for projected enrolment

increases but, if class sizes were to be at the national average, the figure becomes 14,000.

These figures do not take into account increases in children with additional educational needs.

The Department of Education spokesperson said that a new staffing agreement between the Department and the New South Wales Teachers’ Federation will enhance mobility and ensure there is a sufficient supply of well-trained, skilled and knowledgeable teachers across our system.

He also said that the Department is developing a 10-year staffing strategy to address the current and emerging needs of our system.

However, it is unclear how the immediate issues of teacher workload and student supervision are being addressed.

Wildlife feeding project inspires take up of $50,000 bushfire recovery grants COFFS Harbour nature lovers giving bushfire impacted animals a precious second chance is encouraging volunteer groups to apply for new $50,000 Landcare Led Bushfire Recovery Grants.

Scoring funding from Landcare last year, Nana Glen Landcare used the financial boost to supplement food projects for fauna affected by the Liberation Trail fire in November 2019.

Installing food and water stations, the project has assisted native species of Nana Glen including goannas, eastern grey kangaroos, pretty faced wallabies, land mullets, water dragons, bearded dragons, sea eagles and Wonga pigeons.

Nest boxes also benefited birds like cockatoos, small parrots, brushtail and ringtail possums, bats, kingfishers, kookaburras and the Powerful Owl. “With funding assistance

from Landcare, the goal of our project was to provide supplementary food and install nest boxes for wildlife across 172 hectares of fire-impacted area of Nana Glen, NSW (not including State Forest), until natural food resources recover,” said Adam Rees, Nana Glen Landcare.

“COVID restraints for group activities made the project coordination challenging, but over the course of 6 months, we installed 72 nesting boxes, and in the initial months, coordinated the collection and distribution of food.

“Additional achievements include the installation of 3 koala watering stations donated by the Port Macquarie Koala Hospital - which provided (both on ground and on raised platforms) water sources for a variety of native animals.”

And with applications

open for the Landcare Led Bushfire Recovery Grants, offering $50,000 for Black Summer habitat restoration work, the group encourages other environment organisations to apply.

“Eighteen months after the fires, there is still so much more to do, so the funds from Landcare can go a long way to preserving our unique species and biodiversity.”

The Landcare Led Bushfire Recovery Grants program funding is now available with up to $50,000 grants accessible for groups and organisations in regions, including the NSW North Coast and Tablelands, impacted by the Black Summer bushfires, along with $300,000 for partnership projects.

To apply and for more information visit www. landcareledbushfiregrants. org.au.

Tech Help for Older Gen

By Sandra MOON A RECENT social impact report by Swinburne University of Technology found that Be Connected, a government initiative to improve digital literacy, has created significant value for people in its target age group.

Be Connected is an Australian Government initiative aimed at engaging people over the age of fifty to improve their digital skills and gain confidence online.

Between 2016 and February 2020, the total number of people engaged by the program rose to over 880,000, which is more

than double the anticipated amount.

The Swinburne report also found the program boosted social connection creating a social return on investment of $4.01 for every $1 invested.

The results have been made possible by the three thousand plus Be Connected network partners all over Australia, who deliver the program.

New South Wales alone has approximately one thousand community organisations which have engaged older Australians, spanning a diverse range of cultural and educational backgrounds.

The free digital skills help will continue to be offered in Coffs Harbour and the surrounding area

and facilitated in the Coffs Harbour region by Tony Rothacker at Youngster.co.

Mr Rothacker is the cofounder of the start up that connects seniors with techsavvy young people, living in and around the NSW North Coast, to learn digital skills.

Youngster.co is registered as a Be Connected network partner and uses the funding it receives from the program to employ young people as digital mentors.

One of these young people is sixteen yearold Sienna Biggs, who has worked with Ruth Holmes from Dorrigo, to improve the 80-year-old’s digital literacy and teach her to use technology to enhance her day-to-day life.

Ms Holmes has a keen

Ms Biggs also taught Ms Holmes to use QR-codes so she could sign in to venues.

The program, which is

funded by the Department of Social Services (DSS) and delivered by The eSafety Commissioner (eSafety) and Good Things Foundation.

line from the ‘Whale Tail’ sculpture to the railway station and is currently being used informally as a car park.

The funding will allow the Council to purchase the land from the Transport Department and to open it up as a public space.

In welcoming the funding announcement Coffs Harbour Mayor Denise Knight said, “This land will be a part of the planned gateway to the Jetty Foreshores and will tie in with our Jetty Strip Structure plan.

“I would particularly like to thank our local member Gurmesh Singh for his work in making this a reality, we have been working to secure this block

for a very long time, and he has helped immensely to get it through.”

Council has already allocated $1 million towards a detailed design and have until the end of June this year to lock in the funding, with an aim of starting construction in the near future.

The block will be used to increase both parking and open public green space that will tie in with the Jetty Foreshores.

Local member Gurmesh Singh said that the funding was part of up to $250 million in the NSW Public Spaces Legacy Program being spent across the state to create a legacy of quality green and accessible public spaces for the future.

Trees Planted On World Environment Day

By Andrew VIVIAN

OUR Living Coast, a joint project of the Coffs Harbour, Bellingen and Nambucca Councils, organised the planting of 130 trees at events at Coramba and Nana Glen, last Saturday, the 5 of June.

The plantings were conducted on World Environment Day, as part of the Sustainable Living Program and Bale Out! Festivals.

The international theme for this year’s World Environment Day was to reimagine, recreate and restore our urban and natural worlds so the Coffs Harbour Greens joined 15 other participants to plant 80 of the trees outside Nana Glen.

Friday, 11 June, 2021

Coffs Harbour Greens spokesperson, Jonathan Cassell, said, “The area planted out was on a major tributary within the Orara River catchment on largely degraded farm land and funded as part of the Orara River Rehabilitation Project.

“This planting of 80 native trees will create habitat for animals but also protect the waterway from further degradation including issues with erosion, upstream pollution and flood waters,” he said.

Mr Cassell said he was impressed by the community’s spirit of unity and their expertise.

“What stood out was how the community came together to volunteer their time so a section of

degraded land could be restored.

“You might think it's easy to go and plant out

a section of land with trees but the knowledge and expertise in the team behind the day made our

job very easy,” he said.

Mr Cassell said participants got their hands dirty and now better

understand what’s required to make sure young trees get the best chance at a new life.

“But the key to this event, for me, was not only the direct participation of the volunteers to restore the environment but also the vast non-use values that we all take for granted.”

According to Mr Cassell, the most important outcome is habitat support but there is also flood control, pollution control and erosion protection.

“The Coffs Harbour Greens know how much our entire community values the natural environment and we clearly need more events like this one to support that interest.”

Three Wins For TAFE Apprentice

q Trades apprentice Mr Craig Barry is up for his fourth award at TAFE NSW.

GUMBAYNGGIRR man Craig Barry from Bellingen has almost completed his cabinet-making apprenticeship through TAFE, is in full employment, and has gained multiple awards and accolades.

As well as receiving a Hunter TAFE Foundation scholarship in 2018, Mr Barry has recently won three awards in the regional TAFE NSW Excellence Awards and is a finalist in the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Student of the Year category at the North Coast Training Awards to be presented on June 11.

“I have always been interested in making and building things with my hands,” said Mr Barry.

“However, I never believed I could become a tradesperson, because my whole life I have been told I would not achieve anything.”

Mr Barry was working as a labourer at Infracraft Detailed Joinery in Toormina where he met TAFE NSW teacher Cameron Hainsworth, who was conducting workplace assessments of the apprentices at Infracraft.

Mr Hainsworth said he saw that Craig had potential and encouraged him to do an apprenticeship, but Craig

always laughed it off saying “as if they would ever put me on”.

After a discussion between Cameron Hainsworth and the employer, Craig was offered an apprenticeship.

“Craig has become a real asset to his employer and shows great leadership qualities,” said Mr Hainsworth.

“Cameron was the first teacher who actually believed in me,” said Mr Barry.

“I will be forever grateful to him - most of all for giving me the confidence and support to successfully complete the Cabinet Making trade course and achieve the dream I always had of becoming a tradesperson.”

Mr Barry told News of

The Area, “I have thanked the teacher that many times.

“He is an awesome TAFE teacher and he was at my awards ceremonies.

“It's a really good achievement and I get signed off on June 22 as a qualified cabinet maker,” he said.

“I love the work mainly because I have been able to show family members who are coming through the ranks how to do the job.

“I have always been hands-on with bikes and so on but getting into timber was a whole new ball game for me.”

The timber work Mr Barry is doing includes building cabinets and fit outs made in Coffs, which are often sent off to Sydney.

DETECTIVES are appealing for assistance as they continue to investigate a stabbing in Coffs Harbour last week.

Just before 9.30pm on Saturday 29 May 2021, a 32-year-old man was walking south on Grafton Street when

he was approached by a man – not known to him.

After a brief interaction, he was stabbed in the back before the armed man fled on foot along Park Avenue.

The injured man was treated by NSW Ambulance paramedics before being

taken to Coffs Harbour Health Campus in a stable condition, he has since been released.

Detectives from Coffs/ Clarence Police District have commenced an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident.

As inquiries continue, police would like to speak to the driver of a white coloured sedan which was seen at the intersection of Park Avenue and Grafton Street around the time of the alleged incident.

LOCAL student Emily Mitchell is one of 66 students across the state to be awarded a Royal Agricultural Society Foundation (RASF) Rural Scholarship to help her with tertiary studies.

Emily graduated from Saint John Paul College in Coffs Harbour last year and submitted a written application to the RASF, which then led to a telephone interview which covered her study plans and future career aspirations.

Currently in the first year of her Bachelor of Psychology degree at the University of NSW, Emily hopes to move on to the Honours course and if successful pursue her Master's degree, enabling

her to become a registered practising Psychologist in the future.

The $6000 scholarship has allowed Emily to follow her dream, which would have otherwise been out of reach for her financially.

“I am so grateful to the RASF for this support, without it I wouldn’t have been able to afford a place to live and be able to commit to my studies full time,” she said.

With no family or connections in Sydney, Emily has secured accommodation on campus and has settled into a busy routine of study and being active on voluntary event subcommittees including Save The Children Action Group and Women in Science Society.

As a volunteer ARC Wellness Warrior, she is also able to use the skills that she is learning in her courses to help other students with mental health and wellness issues.

At the end of her studies Emily says she, “Would like to return to Coffs Harbour or another regional environment to practice as a Psychologist dealing with youth and young people, particularly in the areas of trauma and complex grief, which would be my way of giving back to regional communities.”

Applications for the 2022 RASF Rural Scholarships program and 2022 RASF VET Scholarships open July 01, 2021. For further information, please visit www.rasf.org.au.

Claim on estate after 30 year estrangement

RAY and his wife adopt a child named Edward, who is 6 months old.

When Edward is 14 years old, Ray and his wife separate.

Ray’s relationship with Edward diminishes from minimal to nonexistent contact until Ray passes away, 30 years later.

Edward discovers that Ray made a Will, leaving the whole of his estate to charity. Ray’s estate is valued at $600,000.

Edward makes a family provision claim against Ray’s estate, seeking half of Ray’s estate.

The Court notes that an adopted child is eligible to make a claim.

In defence of Edward’s claim, it is submitted to the Court that Edward never attempted to maintain a meaningful relationship with Ray and that he bore some responsibility for the poor state of the relationship.

An examination of Edward’s financial circumstances, reveals that he owns a home with only a small mortgage owing on the property, earns $100,000 per year, has $200,000 in superannuation, $50,000 in savings and no dependents.

The defence argues that Edward does not have sufficient financial needs to warrant the making of an order of anything more than enough to pay out his mortgage of $60,000.

The Court also hears that during his lifetime, Ray performed volunteer work for the charity and donated regularly, and on this basis accepts that it was understandable for Ray to leave the whole of his estate to the charity.

Nonetheless, the Court also accepts that despite an estrangement of some 30 years, in the circumstances, Edward had a moral claim on Ray’s estate.

Ultimately, the Court makes an order that Edward receive the sum of $160,000 from Ray’s estate and that the estate pay the bulk of his legal costs.

Dear Jasminda,

I recently gave a friend some clothes and shoes that no longer fit my children. A few days later I saw the same clothes posted for sale on a social media site.

If she only took them to sell them, shouldn't I get the money?

Elizabeth R. Dear Elizabeth,

Scientists Are Not Infallible DEAR News Of The Area, P MEIN’S response (‘Dollar Savings Galore’, p30, NOTA 4/6/21) to my letter (‘What Climate Emergency’, p33, NOTA 28/5/21) is a perfect illustration of the point I wished to make.

It is irrelevant to P Mein that the Intergovernmental

Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) model’s predicted temperatures are well in excess of reality observed by meteorological balloons and NASA satellites.

What appears important to P Mein, is that the IPCC model appears to receive the most votes from scientists and scientific bodies and this validates it.

Mainstream science does not always get it right.

For example in 1928,

Alfred Wegener, with a PhD in astronomy, was bitterly ridiculed by geologists for his theory on continental drift, even though it was based on very sound evidence. It was not until the 1960s that it became generally accepted.

Blind faith may have its place in religion but in science, as in everyday life, an enquiring and questioning mind is far more beneficial.

Regards, W DUESBURY, Boambee.

Vandalism at Sandy Beach

DEAR News Of The Area,

I AM currently attending a TAFE course studying Bush Regeneration and Revegetation.

Last Tuesday we visited a site at Sandy Beach, bordered by the walking path and sand dunes.

Work had been carried out there two to three years ago by a previous TAFE class, to help stabilise the dunes and create an understory, as the dunes had been devastated by storms.

Included in our class of eight, are several members of Landcare groups, operating in and around the Coffs Harbour region.

Our teacher is also a keen Landcare participant.

After tidying the area delegated for the day, weeding it and planting out some 100 plants to help with the stabilising and understory growth, we moved to the area behind the fence, adjacent to

the beach.

Cutting away strangling vines, we found 90% of the trees and shrubs, some two metres tall, had been either broken down, cut off, snapped in half or pulled completely out, then thrown back into the bush.

We were all devastated and wondered what mindless morons would do such a thing. The shrubs/trees had been planted to slow erosion of the dunes and protect the grass area.

Revegetation and natural regeneration benefits every person that comes to the area. Nature is forever growing and changing so views change, but noone owns a view, it is for everyone.

From the location of the vandalism you can easily see that certain people believe (wrongly) that they have special entitlements.

This is not the case and they have NO right to

damage property belonging to everyone.

I am calling out to local residents, to watch what goes on in your community reserve. This was no accident but a definite act of vandalism which would attract a very hefty fine to perpetrators.

Open your eyes Sandy Beach residents, you have some very unsavoury people living in your community, ones who wish to see your reserve without shade, eroded and with no walking track, as it will be undermined by the advancing ocean.

Report any sightings of vandalism or suspicious behaviour to the police who need to know about the vandalism and would be interested to learn how these events are occurring.

Regards, Liz Philpott, A very saddened Bush Regenerating TAFE student and Landcare Coordinator in Boambee East.

At face value, I can see your point. You have given the clothes to your friend out of the goodness of your heart, and you would expect that little Timmy would be happy to receive the Ninja Turtle singlet and Samantha would be thrilled with those faux leather boots, but alas they are now there for the world to see, along with a catchy sales pitch: 'Vintage singlet and vegan boots in great used condition' which is certainly not the description you would have given them.

The thing is, Elizabeth, there is actually zero monetary advantage in selling secondhand clothes to social media communities. I tell you, those people are savvier than any nanna at a Garage Sale. They are as cunning as Victor Lustig (Google him). As relentless as rodents. As tight as a fish's . . . you get the idea.

I discovered this the hard way when I tried to sell my seven-year-old son's soccer boots.

They were in immaculate condition because, let's be honest, he spent half the season on the bench and even when on the field he wasn't too keen on getting his boots scuffed. They cost me $100, so I put them on the local marketplace site for $10, complete with photos from various angles and a detailed sizing chart with European conversions. That probably took me about half an hour, so I was already on slavelabour rates. Well, then the queries started.

Would I accept $5? Ah, no. Would I drive the boots to the purchaser who lived half an hour away? Nope. Would I arrange for free postage (which would be more than the asking price)?

Negative. Would I take some more pictures including one of the shoe next to a ruler? Nein, du nerviger Dummkopf. Trying to sell that one pair of soccer boots became a full-time job. I had to take annual leave to keep up with the enquiries.

I never sold those boots, Elizabeth. They are still in the wardrobe. My son is now sixteen and playing rugby. His feet have grown another ten centimetres. The boots are still listed on the site, waiting patiently for someone to pay me a measly ten bucks so I can put it towards the therapy surrounding my lacklustre sales career.

So, the point is, let your friend try to sell those items. She will be burdened by the tactics of people who do this for a living. They grind you down until you end up offering to pay them just so they'll shut up and take the goods off your hands.

Carpe diem, Jasminda.

Why is it that Australians are encouraged to be critical of China?

DEAR News Of The Area,

WHY is it that Australians are encouraged to be critical of China?

It seems ridiculous to act this way with our largest trading partner.

China recently imposed tariffs on two of Australia’s exports, namely wine

and barley.

They obviously did this to protect their own wine and barley producers.

It wasn’t mentioned that Australia imposes an import duty on all food products coming into our

38 COFFS COAST NEWS OF THE AREA

country.

Of course the main reason for this tax is a finance resource for our government.

The logical way for Australia to stop China or any other country imposing these tariffs would be to increase the price of wine and barley

either at the growers end or as a government measure.

It is quite obvious that while China is extremely efficient in producing most manufactured commodities, Australia is even more efficient in the agricultural sector, especially the wine producing area as our wine

media@newsofthearea.com.au

is the cheapest in the world.

By far the best approach to China by our people is not to follow our Prime Minister and others in constant criticism but recognize it as friendly and efficient and deserving of our friendship.

Times gone by go

By Karen FILEWOOD FOLLOWING recommendations from another interested land investor, William Sare, Jorgan ‘John’ Peterson, Robert Fuller, George Shepherd and William Wingfield teamed up to apply for their conditional purchase of land. The four of them travelled together to Kempsey to arrange their conditional purchases on 3 February 1881, the government gazette recording them according to the order in which they applied. First in line at the Kempsey Land Office, Peterson requested portion 6, comprising 120 acres located on the northern side of Coffs Creek, opposite James Marles.

Born in Copenhagen, Denmark, Jorgan emigrated to Sydney in 1872 aged 25 years, his occupation being a tailor.

He arrived in Grafton a few years later, marrying Louisa ‘Rosie’ Kleindeinst in 1877, establishing himself as a ‘Tailor and Clothier’ in Prince Street, Grafton and becoming a naturalised Australian.

After their 7-week-old daughter passed away in 1879, they had another daughter the following year before closing their Grafton business and moving to Coffs Harbour.

They established an accommodation house, growing ‘vines’ and numerous fruit trees.

The couple then had twin boys, though lost one before having their second twins (a boy and girl) followed by another two children.

Jorgan also became the local agent for Davey and Co.’s ‘Patent Tree and Stump Extractor’ and attended a number of meetings to establish a local mail service and school.

On one unforgettable occasion in July 1885, a bag was found out the front of their hotel containing the lower half of a man’s leg, still wearing a boot!

That, however, is another story.

In June 1887 he attended one of the largest meetings in the area to help form the Coffs Harbour Progress Association, accepting the position of vice president and signing a petition to the government to have the jetty constructed.

By October of that year and with no sign of government action on the jetty, Jorgan’s patience had run out and he and his family returned to Grafton, reestablishing his original business as a tailor.

Thanks David!

Housing Emergency DEAR News Of The Area,

WITHOUT any consultation, approximately 15 years ago, Bellingen Council rezoned all private land upstream from Thora 24 klm and also the Kalang valley upstream from Moody's bridge to E4 (environmental living).

This allowed existing activities to remain, but prohibited any expansion or development, and even a dog kennel or cubby house would constitute a development.

Any landholder who had resisted the temptation to convert to multiple occupancies and continue farming were gutted, having anticipated as their operations became nonviable, possibly the odd subdivision or allowed some secondary dwellings to meet the demand for affordable rentals, allowing them to continue to farm in a reduced capacity, but more importantly remain on home base and maintain their property and assist in retaining the aesthetic beauty of the valley.

But not surprising to hear our Mayor crying out, help, we have a housing

emergency.

Council has as claimed rezoned some areas closer to town with limited uptake.

Few have volunteered to endure the cost, time factor and mental stress jumping the obstacles constructed by the hierarchy in Council.

To their credit, Council are reviewing their E4 zoning and we await the outcome.

The little once rural town of Bellingen is consuming itself, lacking the infrastructure and capacity to expand to cope with the influx of cashed up southern yuppies with their millions displacing the locals who can't compete with ballooning house prices and rent.

Looking at this housing crisis outside the Bello bubble, I offer as an example the Thora Darkwood valley where I have lived for 52 years and still operate and maintain a small farm.

Described by all visitors as a beautiful valley, there is plenty of land on the valley floor for boutique small-scale farming and strategically located small acre residential

Groundhog day?

DEAR News Of The Area,

LISTENING to ABC Breakfast radio last Friday we were intrigued to hear our Local Member discussing the discovery of two new plant species right under our very noses.

Coffs was on the map and making national headlines.

While it has been an opportunity to showcase our unique local natural environment, it is also a reminder of what we stand to lose.

The proposed logging of our very own Compartments 26 and 27 in Pine Creek State Forest on Gleniffer Road Bonville

by Forestry Corporation should be a major concern to all of us living in the Coffs LGA, including our Local Member.

It has a history that many seem to be unaware of, or have forgotten.

When our local Koala Plan of Management was developed in response to government and local community concerns about declining koala numbers back in the

1990s, the remnant native forests in Pine Creek SF were recognized as some of the best remaining populated koala habitat in the LGA. As State Forest did not come under local Council jurisdiction, a separate SF/NPWS joint Koala Plan of Management oversaw forestry operations and monitored which portions of the SF could be safely logged.

Compliance issues with this agreement, plus persistent local community opposition and bad publicity eventually led to several planned logging operations being abandoned and in 2003, a portion of the SF handed over to Bongil Bongil N.P. Since that time, and of major concern, is the fact that the joint SF/NPWS koala plan of management has been scrapped, intensive harvesting (clear felling) and removal of ‘forest waste’ has been ‘legalized’, and pre harvest surveys diminished to the point of being token.

Forestry Corporation controls approximately 30% of the land in our LGA and apart from managing timber production

development.

Steep mountains to the north and the south crisscrossed by the river numerous times.

Never, contrary to ignorance, was a residence lost to a bush fire.

The area features three schools of approximately 300 kids plus large numbers of staff mostly travelling from outside.

Three options are available; subdivision which boost Councils coffers plus annual rates; secondary dwellings which provide affordable rentals but no revenue for Council; community title, with multiple shares on a holding but each rateable for Council, contrary to multiple occupancies.

There is unprecedented demand from young families to exit suburbia and rear their kids in a natural healthy environment close to school, maybe own a dog, grow a vegetable patch, pick from fruit trees and even meet your neighbour.

The ball is in Council’s court, disconnect from google and engage that grey matter.

Apart from the known presence of several threatened animal species, independent on-ground and online searches show five native vegetation types within the area, including remnant rainforest species and at least one critically endangered plant.

At least three other endangered and critically endangered plants potentially exist within the area.

And of course, who knows what other yet to be discovered species may also be hidden within its 239 hectares?

This proposed harvesting is a cynical move by Forestry Corporation and will be a travesty on our very doorstep if it proceeds.

We implore our local Member to intervene and ensure it does not happen.

In the meantime we can all make our wishes known by contacting the minister responsible for the Forestry Corporation, Deputy Premier and leader of the Nationals in NSW, the Hon. John Barilaro.

Sincerely, Dave WOOD, Boambee East. is virtually nil whereas the risk of dying from the virus itself is much higher. Yes, some 10% of people may get some mild sideeffects for up to four days after the jab (not in my case, though) but it’s still so much better than getting Covid-19 itself.

Help keep our communities virus-free by getting your Covid-19 jab as soon as possible.

Regards, P A DENNIS, Coffs Harbour.

Advice for future leaders DEAR News Of The Area,

DEAR News Of The Area,

THUMBS down to Woolworths for leaving these trollies in this drain after several reminders of their whereabouts and thumbs up to David Ellis who voluntarily pulled them out.

Thankyou David for saving the Coffs Creek from the ugly presence and environmental pollution of yet more shopping trollies.

‘HEREWITH is an attempt to ‘define an approach’ for those who place their name forward for Local Government Election, and Mayoral Leadership.

Rather than ambition or ego driven achievements, their representation is ‘exclusively’ for the ‘citizens’, and the ‘long-term good’, value, and benefits to the people.

Consensus, cooperation and compromise are primary principles worth pursuing.

The good of the people is above party politics and factions.

Longer-term consideration is superior to creating deep and long-term divisions.

Long-term and immense debt requires ‘very serious’ consideration for those who follow; especially in a City where Council rates are already high and when ‘national financial corrections’ are imminent.

www.newsofthearea.com.au

The excessive and indulgent spending of ratepayers annual contributions is negligent.

First and foremost, the decisions of Council are for the ‘quality of life and enjoyment’ of the people ‘who live within its boundaries’.

Finally – for the good of the people – the city’s administration must quickly and seriously consider this city’s population growth and manageable numbers.

Parking is already a companion problem!

Even now and during times of population build-up, city traffic is a problem.

This, the bypass WILL NOT FIX! For the Council electoral aspirants, please try to get your priorities right!

GARDENING AUSTRALIA

ABC, 7.30pm

There are myriad ways to ring in the weekend, but unless you are tuning into Gardening Australia with a vino in hand, you are probably doing it the wrong way. Is there anything more life affirming and relaxing than learning about nature with a group of can-do folk from the comfort of your couch – or bed? Not really.

Anchored by Costa Georgiadis, this long-running series is a lesson in finding joy and purpose with nature, and it’s all very laidback. Tonight, Costa meets city gardeners who are utilising the street.

Handsome and oozing charisma, Rob Lowe leads the cast of this ostentatious and cheesy procedural disaster drama. Arguably one of the most underrated actors of his generation, many will find it difficult to forget his goofball role on cult satire Parks and Recreation, but his turn here as Owen, a perfectionist Manhattan firefighter relocated to Texas, is unique and entertaining – often accidentally. Season two kicks off tonight, with the coronavirus pandemic embedded into the narrative.

But a global health crisis still has nothing on the series’ overthe-top emergencies.

Sadly, female lead Liv Tyler doesn’t return, but excitement awaits with a 9-1-1 crossover in two weeks.

BLUE BLOODS

WIN, 10.40pm

Just like Tom Selleck (right) and his perpetual chevron moustache, this crime procedural is standing the test of time.

Now in its 11th season, the New York-set drama has stuck to its conservative storylines, ensuring it stands out from its flashier counterparts. The trials and tribulations of the Irish-Catholic Reagan family, who have law enforcement in their blood, is diverting enough, but it is family patriarch Frank (Selleck) who steals the show as the family member who has all the pearls of wisdom. Tonight, in “In Too Deep”, after Danny (Donnie Wahlberg) witnesses a drive-by shooting, he locks horns with the detective assigned to the case.

Three generations of dentistry comes to a close

By David TUNE IN 1930, Mark Spencer's grandfather began his dentistry practice in Sydney, and was followed by his son, Norman Spencer practicing in a dental surgery at Top Ryde, with Mark becoming the third generation of the family to become a dentist and worked in Sydney’s Macquarie Street before moving to Coffs Harbour 16 years ago.

Mark’s retirement in July from Coffs Coast Dental and Facial Clinic closes out a distinguished career as a dental surgeon which includes recognition as a Fellow of the Pierre Fauchard Academy and of the International College of Dentists, both prestigious international organisations dedicated to recognising and promoting excellence in dentistry.

His other passion has been underwater photography, particularly in conjunction

Victorious North Coast Special Olympics Team

By Andrea FERRARI THE NORTH Coast Special Olympics Swimming team has returned victorious from the Kurri Kurri Regional carnival on 31 May 2021.

“These amazing five athletes were nervous entering the competition but quickly overcame their jitters with the support of their coach Kim Roach, families, carers and fellow athletes cheering them on from the sidelines,” Kate Pollard, Sports Coordinator, Special Olympics North Coast told News Of The Area.

“All five swimmers smashed personal best times in the carnival.”

These athletes are now eligible to progress to the State Swimming Championship which is scheduled for 21 November 2021 at Warringah Aquatic Centre in Sydney.

“They’ll be going to the Championships with their eyes firmly on the prize of selection for the National Team,” said Kate.

Kim Roach, the team’s coach, and a poolside legend, told News Of The Area, “These young adults are committed

to their swimming, showing up every week to our Thursday training at Sawtell Pool.

“Our program is varied, challenging and fun; the athletes always give it their best.

“They have not had a competitive swim for over eighteen months and took on the swim meet with a wonderful approach, ‘Have fun, do your best, enjoy the moment’.

“They all did what was asked of them and they reaped the rewards.”

“Hard work pays off.

q Coach Kim Roach, preparing the team to give their best…and they do.

with deep diving, and his dental connections helped him to be part of a historic undersea expedition.

Mark led the first Australian expedition to Turkey’s Sea of Marmara in 1997/98 to bring back documented evidence of the Turkish discovery of Australia’s WW1 submarine AE2, an expedition that was made possible through connections he had within the Government as a result of his dental practice.

He returned to Turkey in 2010 with much of his original team to assist maritime archaeologist Tim Smith in the documentation and surveying of the maritime heritage off Gallipoli as part of “Project Beneath Gallipoli”.

A keen Rotarian, Mark is also concluding his term as President of the Coffs Harbour Daybreak Rotary club but will continue to be an active member and remain involved in providing service to the community.

Mark reflected on his retirement, “I see this as an opportunity for a bit of a reality check, and while I feel I am at the top of my game as a dental surgeon it is the right time for me to take the time to enjoy life for what it is and to be an open book for new adventures.”

Open week at the North Coast Regional Botanic Gardens - A Great Success ESTEEMED local Botanists, Dr Alex Flloyd (OA Medal) and Dr Gwen Harden (OAM) shared the job of cutting the red ribbon at the entrance to the newest attraction at the North Coast Regional Botanic Gardens, known as The Botanist Walk, on Saturday May 29.

The Botanist Walk recognises the contribution of 16 botanists past and present who have contributed to our knowledge and naming of the amazing Australian flora we know so well today.

Some examples are Banksias (Joseph Banks), the dainty Daisies of the Dampieria family (William Dampier); Common Tussock Grass / Poa labillardierei (Jacques Labillardiere); Acacia floydii (Alex Floyd) to name but a few.

Dr Gwen Harden coordinated The Flora of NSW Project which was a uniquely comprehensive survey to identify all known plants from a particular region.

This Garden was financed by a substantial grant from the Australian Maritime Museums

q Esteemed local Botanists, Dr Alex Flloyd (OA Medal) and Dr Gwen Harden (OAM).

Council and also The Friends of the Coffs Harbour Botanic Garden.

Much of the labour was by Volunteers and Members of the ‘Friends’.

In particular, experienced horticulturalist Larry Corbett, designed the layout and selected suitable plants for this special Walk.

Coffs Harbour City Council employees who work at the Garden, are to be commended for their substantial contribution in implementing and supervising this work.

The Opening Ceremony was attended by Mr Peter Rout, representing the Australian Maritime Museums Council; The Hon. Mr Gurmesh Singh MP; Mr George Cecato, Deputy Mayor of Coffs City Council; Dr Alex Floyd; Dr Gwen Harden; Mr Barry Kemp; and Mr Robb Watt, Deputy President of the Friends of the Coffs Harbour Botanic Garden.

The proceedings were also attended by about 35 members of the public.

Athletics community refute Bill Harrigan’s RAC claims

By Emma DARBIN COFFS Harbour athletics community representative Nicola Johnstone has criticised well-known former NRL referee Bill Harrigan’s recent calls not to place Coffs Harbour’s future Regional Athletics Centre (RAC) within the Coffs Coast Sport and Leisure Park.

Mr Harrigan stated on Prime News recently that he didn’t want the proposed Regional Athletics Centre positioned at Bruce Barnier Oval, within the Coffs Harbour Sports Precinct, as he believes it will interfere with the holding of State Oztag and touch football tournaments there.

Coffs Harbour City Councillors have debated on two separate occasions whether to place the future Regional Athletics Centre at Bruce Barnier Oval or York Street Oval, Coffs Harbour.

Council staff have twice recommended the placement of the centre at York Street Oval, and councillors have been unable to make a decision on the issue on both occasions.

Ms Johnstone stated that representations were made to Mr Harrigan in December 2020 and again in late April 2021 that the RAC’s placement at Bruce Barnier Oval would not impact on the Oztag tournaments he hosts in Coffs

Harbour.

“Athletes pointed out on both occasions there are over 40 fields available to Oztag in the sports precinct with the RAC in place,” Ms Johnstone said.

“In fact, the RAC’s construction at Bruce Barnier Oval will see the fields elevated by a fill pad to reduce any impact from flooding in wet weather events, therefore providing Oztag with six flood free fields during competition, which is more than they have access to now.”

Ms Johnstone questioned why Mr Harrigan, who hires the fields for ten days a year for Oztag championships, “has a say in Coffs Harbour town planning matters and why the consensus views of the local community are being ignored”.

“The athletics community is unanimous in its preference for the RAC to be placed at Bruce Barnier Oval,” Ms Johnstone said.

A Regional Athletics Workshop was held by Council on 27 April with fifteen key stakeholders, with nine strongly advocating for the Regional Athletics Centre to be placed at Bruce Barnier

www.newsofthearea.com.au

Oval, three willing to place it at either Bruce Barnier Oval or York Street Oval, and two stakeholders willing to work with athletes regarding the centre’s placement.

“Only Oztag was strongly opposed to the RAC being established at Bruce Barnier Oval,” Ms Johnstone stated.

Ms Johnstone said the benefits of the RAC to other sports if placed at Bruce Barnier Oval are numerous and include a state of the art training and sport testing facility for all sporting codes.

“Placed at Bruce Barnier Oval, with all its existing infrastructure such as adequate car parks,

bus bays, footpaths, cafe, administration building etc, the RAC can attract State and National competitions and host a state of origin track and field series,” she stated.

“These athletic competitions will bring in substantial economic benefits to the region, with many championships attracting over 1000 competitors over a threefive day period.

“It can provide a base for international track and field teams to train in the ideal climate prior to the Brisbane Olympics in 2032 (if the bid is successful).”

Lions edge the Tigers to go top

By David WIGLEY

THE Coffs United Lions edged past the Coffs Coast Tigers 1-0 to go top of the Coastal Premier League last Saturday at Polwarth Drive.

A clinical first half finish from Mabior Garang put the Lions ahead at half time but they had to survive a second half onslaught from the Tigers which included a penalty that ricocheted off the crossbar.

In a game of slim margins it was Mabior’s work rate and high press that got the Lions over the line.

“It was definitely a tight game and really physical, I had heaps of chances to put a couple more away but I wasn’t successful.

“The high press up the field I reckon played a big part in my goal and us scoring a goal definitely lifted our team to push us through to the end

without conceding a goal,” said Mabior.

The three points sent the Lions to the top of the CPL as they swapped places with Boambee who went down to Macleay Valley Rangers 2-1 on Sunday.

Coach Glen Williams was happy to walk away with the points in a game of slim margins.

“The night started with a speed bump after Jake

Mahoney had been struck down with gastro, so Will Goodwin made another first grade appearance and played very well between the sticks.

“First half we played some great football with high intensity and some pressure put on their defence gave Mabior Garang a half chance that he calmly slotted away.

at half time, however the Lions seemed to sit back and let the Tigers come at them.

“The Tigers kept going attack after attack and it paid off with a run through the middle resulting in young Will (Goodwin) bringing down the attacker in the box.

“The resulting penalty hit the crossbar and went sailing over the top, the result ended

1-0, the second half was not one of our best but we have the points,” said Glen.

The Lions’ next match is against Lake Macquarie City in the sixth round of the FFA Cup on Saturday 12 June at Lake Macquarie.

end with Allstars walking away with the win,” said Chris.

In the senior B grade competition the match was tied at 9-9.

“B grade was a tight

tussle with a 9-9 draw after a great team hitting performance to start led by a Chris Catchpool double and Brock Wilson’s pitching kept the Bluesox’s bats quiet .

“With Bluesox’s Micheal Perret return to the mound, the runs dried up for the Allstars and defence was tested on great gap hitting from the Sox lineup,” said Chris.

Get ready for Carnival Baseball

By David WIGLEY COFFS Harbour’s junior baseball players raised their game in preparation for ‘carnival baseball’ at an upcoming tournament in Lismore.

during the trip.

“There were some quality hits coming from all across the field with highlights being hits from Lincoln Wilson and a centre field catch from Ethan Hunt that turned into a double play.

“Both catchers Ethan Cameron and Flynn Thompson led their teams well from behind the dish and supported their pitchers well,” said Chris.

Sawtell/Toormina Saints women win their first game of season

www.newsofthearea.com.au

q Sawtell/Toormina Saints women celebrate their first win of the season.

By Aiden BURGESS

IT’S always a good feeling to get your first win of the sporting season.

And the Sawtell/Toormina Saints women experienced this emotion last weekend, as they recorded their first win of their AFL North Coast season.

The Sains triumphed at home beating the Grafton Tigers 4.6 (30) to 1.3 (9) at Richardson Park.

Leading by 15 points at half-time, a three goal third quarter sealed the match for the Saints as they broke through for their first win of 2021 after three straight losses to start the season.

Saints vice-captain Rhianon Taylor said it was an awesome feeling to sing the team song after their first victory of the season.

“It’s amazing and I think we really need that,'' she said.

“We sang the team song with a lot of oomph and we delayed the start of the song (vocally) because we’ve waited a long time to sing it.

“I said let’s not rush this and we had a social night tonight, so it’s good to head there with a win.”

Playing in her fourth season, Taylor has been with the Saints since the introduction of the women’s competition in 2018.

She explained the importance of her side’s win against the Tigers.

“It was special to win today, being Indigenous round and having three Indigenous players,” she said.

“And it was also a chance to celebrate how far we have come as a team.”

Taylor told News Of The

Area her Saints side would look to build on their recent form.

“We were so close to beating Port Macquarie two weeks ago and we only lost by a goal,” she said.

“We’ve got some big games coming up, and we’ve shown we can put some good passages of play together, we just need to do it against the better teams.”

Saints coach Bec Minichilli said she felt relieved to break through for the first win.

“It's more relief to be honest, and it feels amazing,” she said.

“It’s great to see all the girls' hard work they put in at training pay off.”

She said it was a true team effort against the Tigers.

“It was more of a team effort and having someone to grab a hard pass and backing

them up,” she said.

“Our transition from defence to attack was also good.”

in the first half by young Charlie was at an important stage of the first half.

“He only got called up to play firsts around lunch time due to current number one, Mitch Weeding’s wife going into labour.

“He’s an outstanding talent and again showed why he’s so important to our campaign and the squad.

“Our ability to take back control of the game after conceding early was pleasing, especially in the second half, I thought we controlled the game and created some well constructed goals,” said Craig.

Sawtell coach Joe Skyrtic summed up the match.

“We started well creating chances with a goal in the first five minutes.

“Storm turned it around and scored two quick goals through defensive mistakes

and kept pressure on our backs.

“We had some goal scoring opportunities but couldn’t find the back of the net, we struggled to keep possession and create

chances in the second half and found ourselves defending for most of the game.

“Storm was a tough opponent and deserved the win,” concluded Joe.

Storm Take Back Control

By David WIGLEY

THE Northern Storm defeated Sawtell 5-1 in an impressive performance last Saturday in the Coastal Premier League at Korova Oval.

Sawtell came out all guns blazing and scored in the first five minutes and had a penalty saved by the in-form Storm goalkeeper, Charlie Shipperlie shortly after.

As the game progressed the Storm stamped their authority on the match to take six points from their last two matches to the delight of co-coach Craig Caruana.

“Sawtell came out of the blocks and caught us by surprise with a goal in the opening minutes with pace and a well worked goal.

“We had to work hard to take control of the game.

“The save from the spot

The Saints coach praised the character of her side.

“They are the most competitive and loving group

Coffs Harbour Snappers celebrate Old Boys day

By Aiden BURGESS

COFFS Harbour Snappers have honoured past players by holding an ‘Old Boys’ day during the Coffs Harbour Snappers and SCU Marlins local derby day.

Paul Butcher was one of the Snappers Old Boys in attendance who saw the Marlins prevail by one-point.

Butcher played for the Snappers from 2002 to 2014, and said the Old Boys day was a chance to catch up with familiar faces.

“We all reminisce about what we did in the past, and what we’re up to now,” he said.

“It's good catching up with them all and talking about our time on the field.

“Premierships are always good and Swappers can pride themselves on that, but I guess the mateship is the best part as we’re all still friends 10 years after playing together.

“We have former players who played together 40 years ago and are still mates.”

Butcher told News of the Area it was this mateship and sense of family which made the Snappers a special club.

“The family atmosphere is the best part as I’ve got children who are playing

and all their teammates are friends,” he said.

“Win, lose, or draw we’re happy and they just enjoy themselves.

“Today’s a local derby and it's good to see both Snappers and Marlins families enjoying the day.”

Butcher said Old Boys day honoured the history of Coffs Harbour rugby.

“We have five generations of players here today,and it’s 50 years of rugby in Coffs Harbour represented today through the Old Boys as well as coaches. Managers, and administrators who put in just as much as the players.”

THE Macleay Valley Rangers have become the first side to beat the Boambee Bombers this season, after a 2-1 win during Round 9 of the Coastal Premier League.

Two second half goals in the space of a few minutes saw the Rangers overcome a 1-0 deficit to earn the valuable three points at Ayrshire Park.

Luke France gave the Bombers the lead in the 20th minute heading home the opening goal from a beautiful cross into the goal square.

The Bombers would dominate possession and chances throughout the match, but a second goal proved elusive as the Rangers remained resolute in the face of waves of Bombers attacks.

The Rangers equalised with 20 minutes remaining after converting a header from a corner, with the visitors scoring the match winner just minutes later.

Bombers captain Mitchell Brewster lamented his side's missed chances and defensive lapses.

“In front of goal we needed to take our chances, and it’s just the same thing

every week giving away stupid penalties and it came back to haunt us,” he said.

“It was poor making on set pieces which lead to goals, and we shot ourselves in the foot.”

Brewster said his side was looking forward to the return of key personnel.

“The last couple of weeks we have been down on numbers, so hopefully we get some players back soon.”

The second placed Bombers are scheduled to play the third placed Port United in the match of the round this weekend.

Michelle has also improved out of sight with a strong finishing fourth in the Elite Half Marathon in Austria with a PB of 1.14.44.

Both are now highly ranked in their distance running events in Australia and will endeavour to

lower these times before returning to Australia at the end of their working visa period.

They will look forward to supporting the 2022 Bendigo Bank Half Marathon and wish all competitors the best this year.

q The10th annual Bendigo Bank Coffs Harbour Running Festival is set to be run in September. prior to Covid-19 hitting in early 2020 to have a working and running holiday based in London.

Whilst they have been able to work in their professions in the NHS in London during Covid, their running and travel plans were halted.

They have come back stronger in early 2021 with Reece running a 2.14.44 at the Cheshire Elite Marathon Wrexham UK and then only last week he ran another personal best at the S7 Marathon in Austria finishing third in 2.13.26.

“We needed that win to keep us in the hunt for both the Des Hoy cup and Pottsy shield, the crowd definitely got their money's worth yesterday,” said AJ.

Snappers coach Brendan Hoy saw room for improvement in what he thinks is the tightest competition in years.

“We were below our best, there’s room for improvement, we were a little bit one dimensional and that played into their hands and we lacked discipline.

“Kempsey also had a win

at the weekend so this comp is very close, it’s going to take a few more wins than normal this year to make the finals, every team is struggling with injuries,I think this is the closest comp in years,” said Brendan.

Whilst the intensity was high on the field there was an overwhelming camaraderie after the matches as the teams

lined up to shake hands and congratulate their opponents as Snappers spokesperson Tim Chapman explained to News Of The Area.

“From senior rugby right through to our juniors(14 to 18 years) and Whipper Snappers (8 to 12 years) rugby games have an ingrained set of values and never was it more evident than in our games on

“Our 14s were on the end of a rugby lesson from the Marlins and they won graciously and we accepted the defeat with improvement needed.

“Snappers 16s were looking to turn around a couple of losses and picked up this week in our home game.

“They toppled the most

consistent team and ladder leaders in a dominant display setting a mental and physical benchmark for next week,” said Tim.

C.EX Coffs Women’s Bowling Club 4 A Side Pennant Winners C.ex Coffs Women’s Bowling Club had another win during the 2021 Pennant season with their District 4 A Side Pennant team.

As the Mid North Coast District Women’s Bowls Pennants Championships

were being played, there was another Championship underway called the “4 A Side Pennants” Championships.

The aim of this competition is to give bowlers the feel and rigor of Pennants under the care and experience of a competent Skip.

C.ex Coffs Women’s Bowling Club won this Championship under the leadership of Dot Heron.

Dot has been playing

with C.ex Coffs Women’s Bowls for over 40 years and has won plenty of Championships, including State Pennants.

Dot’s team won all their games and were so far ahead that they did not have to play their final few games.

Congratulations to Dot and her team.

All members of C.ex Coffs Women’s Bowling Club are very proud and thrilled for you.

LAST weekend Coffs Harbour had sixteen players playing in the Country Championships at Niagara Stadium, Gosford.

There were a total of 64 teams participating in ten divisions with three players (minimum) in each team.

Urunga Ladies Open Day

By Lois MILHAM

URUNGA Ladies Open Day two person Ambrose was held on 4 June with 64 players attending from Tallwoods, South West Rocks, Crescent Head, Nambucca, Bellingen, Dorrigo, Bonville, Sawtell, Coffs Harbour, Woolgoolga, and Urunga.

The weather was glorious, and I wish to thank every player for supporting Urunga Ladies Golf.

Open Days are a very important part of each club’s golfing calendar, and it is equally as important that each of our clubs support our neighbouring golf clubs to establish a strong

July.

Whilst the field will be extremely hot Daley and Clarke are expected to perform well during the 5 day carnival.

Daley is a former State Champion and a multiple winner of the Park Beach Club Championships, whilst Clarke is an outstanding young talent and a member of the NSW State Junior squad.

In addition to the main tournament the carnival will feature three sponsored skill competitions with “Drawing”, “Driving” and a “Dash for Cash”.

A “Phoenix Pairs Calcutta“will be conducted on Monday evening enabling everyone to be involved in the tournament.
