residential treatment program where the clients reside for three to twelve months and undergo intensive counselling and recovery sessions.

For the past ten years, at any one time, the Moonee Beach facility has assisted up to 20 men who are recovering from drug and alcohol addiction.

The new Moonee Beach facility will include twenty client bedrooms and one staff bedroom, kitchen/dining facilities, a small gym, a yoga centre, an office, therapy and counselling rooms, gardens and an enclosed outdoor recreation area.

It will be staffed 24/7 and

no client will be able to drive or have a vehicle while they are at Adele House.

The new development will be used for residential rehabilitation programs for women recovering from drug and alcohol problems.

Onsite services to be provided at the group home include therapy, counselling, gardening, exercise, cooking, reading, and computer work.

The development application for the group home was unanimously approved by the Northern Regional Planning Panel in December, 2020.

The DA was referred to the Northern Regional Planning Panel for assessment because it

www.newsofthearea.com.au was deemed a ‘regionally significant development’ and had a capital investment value of more than $5 million.

In coming to its decision, the panel considered four written submissions made during public exhibition of the development application last year and heard from those wishing to address the panel.

Issues of concern relating to the development included Aboriginal heritage, privacy, noise and concerns of runoff from wastewater treatment.

The panel stated in its determination that the concerns raised by the community had been adequately addressed in Coffs Harbour City Council’s assessment report on the development application, which recommended approval of the DA.

C.ex Group proposes $44m highrise for Coffs CBD

By Emma DARBIN A $44 million thirteen-storey residential and retail highrise has been proposed for Coffs Harbour’s central business district in Harbour Drive, on behalf of the C.ex Group.

The proposed development will be located opposite C.ex Coffs at 1531 Harbour Drive and involves the demolition of existing buildings and the construction of a thirteenstorey tower including ground floor retail, loading dock and car parking, Levels One to Three car parking and residential apartments, Levels Four to Twelve residential apartments, 735 square metres of retail

space including seven retail premises, 95 residential apartments, 154 car parking spaces, two lifts, communal open space and a six-metre wide pedestrian laneway between Harbour Drive and Vernon Street.

The laneway will be a publicly accessible space which will be open day and night.

The site has dual frontage to Harbour Drive and Vernon Street, and the building will occupy three existing properties including the City Boulevard Arcade and adjoining retail premises.

The site is located within the Coffs Harbour CBD and adjoins a two-storey vacant commercial building (formerly The Kitchen Shop), the Cinema Walk Arcade, Jack Simmons Centre, Harbour

Drive and Vernon Street.

The proposed development is also located to the west of the approved twelve-storey Gowings Hotel development located above Coffs Central Shopping Centre.

The development is expected to encourage further redevelopment in the City Centre in response to expected district growth, the Pacific Highway bypass, and City Centre developer incentives for employment generation and residential projects.

The development application for the highrise will be determined by the Northern Regional Planning Panel due to the development’s high cost of more than $44 million, which sees it classed as ‘Regional Development’.

Coffs Harbour City Council will receive and process the development application and prepare an assessment report to assist the Planning Panel in its decision.

Coffs Harbour Community Corrections staff celebrated wouldn’t be in the mess he’s in today,” Stuart said.

“He is an example of someone who’s been in and out of the system, fighting addiction and responsible for domestic violence incidents.

“Now he’s turning his life around.”

The West High Street office employs 18 staff, including manager Kathy Moloney, three Unit Leaders, nine Community Corrections Officers, three administrative assistants, three field officers and a community volunteer.

The team works with offenders on community service, State Parole Authority and court issued orders and with inmates serving custodial sentences transitioning into the community.

Successfully managing an offender’s reintegration reduces their likelihood of committing another crime

working face-to-face with complex cases, in people’s homes, with their families and all the surprises and chaos that come with turning up unannounced,” Amy says.

“We do that because we

want to get to the source of their reoffending, not just considering how an offender did what they did, but why and what were the circumstances.”

ASK the Coffs Harbour Community Corrections team to describe their work with offenders on parole and they’ll say it’s like juggling eggs while walking on a tightrope.

If you can keep them all up in the air at once you know you’re doing your job right.

Unit leaders Stuart Davidson, Amy Riddle and Chantel Smith are among 10,000 Corrective Services NSW staff being celebrated on National Corrections Day, Friday 15 January for their commitment to community safety and reducing reoffending.

CSNSW 15-year veteran Stuart Davidson says a shift over the years towards prioritising access to programs and services is paying off.

“An offender we supervise said he wished he’d met our team decades ago because he

With a degree in social welfare and psychology, Chantel Smith knows success isn’t clear-cut.

“For some offenders change does happen overnight, but for most it is gradual and dotted with small wins, which are important to acknowledge,” Chantel says.

“I had an offender apologise to me the other day, regretful for his behaviour four years ago when I was his case manager.

“That recognition is the first step towards rehabilitation.”

As a Coffs Harbour local of 25 years Amy Riddle agrees, saying the focus on the cycle of change and why reoffending happens has made a huge difference.

“Most can’t believe we do unscheduled home visits with offenders in the community.

Chief Executive Stewart Dowrick, Mid North Coast Local Health District (MNCLHD) facilities, said, “After the challenges of 2020, many clinical staff including doctors and nurses will take the opportunity to spend some welldeserved time with their families so it makes sense to have a low activity period for surgery.

“The deferring of elective surgery at this time is accepted by the majority of our patients as many do not want to be in hospital over the festive season,” he continued.

According to Mr Dowrick, unscheduled or emergency surgery will continue to be performed across the holiday period, as will essential procedures such as renal dialysis.

“I urge all of our community to get tested for COVID-19 even with the mildest of symptoms, such as a sore or scratchy throat, runny nose, cough and fever.

“Testing clinics are open across the Christmas break, you can find your closest one on the NSW Health website at: https:// www.health.nsw.gov.au/ Infectious/covid-19/ Pages/clinics.aspx” In acknowledging the efforts of medical staff last year and over the break so far, Mr Dowrick gave his personal thanks.

“I would like to thank the medical, hospital, community health and administration staff at our many facilities who continue to provide quality care in support of better health and quality of life for our community,” Mr Dowrick said.

NSW may soon legalise voluntary euthanasia with independent MP Alex Greenwich announcing last month the drafting of a bill that will be ready for debate in mid2021.

The proposed bill is expected to follow the Western Australian model which would allow terminally ill patients with a diagnosis of less than six months before death to receive a voluntary euthanasia.

Not-for-profit organisation Dying With Dignity launched a petition on the back of Mr Greenwich’s announcement, with Coffs Harbour organiser

Dr Max Brinsmead calling for locals to show their support.

“We will be setting up booths in shopping centres where we can provide information and provide a place for people to sign the petition,” he said.

Dr Brinsmead said he was motivated to take on the role of organiser after seeing terminally ill family members and because of his experience as a doctor.

“I think it’s a fundamental right and a choice.”

Detractors of the bill such as Family Voice Australia’s Director Greg Bondar said they would be protesting the move to legalise euthanasia.

“We believe quite frankly to put life before death, in particular over euthanasia (sic) there’s every opportunity under good palliative care for people to resume a normal or a less painful lifestyle,” said Mr Bondar.

NSW will become the third state after Western Australia and Victoria to legalise euthanasia if the bill is passed.

Play by COVID Rules

By Sandra MOON BELLINGEN Shire Mayor, Cr Dominic King, is urging locals and visitors alike to play by the rules when it comes to COVID-19 safety.

Mr King said that the Council continues to monitor and follow the advice of NSW Health over the holiday period as the two clusters in Greater Sydney continue to develop and tourist numbers swell over the holiday period by the thousands.

“Our Shire’s own COVID-19 clinic has recorded a recent spike in people being tested for the virus, and while currently there are no positive cases recorded, we all need to play by the rules and practice

good hygiene and follow the appropriate social distancing measures,” he said.

“This also applies to those visiting our Shire, which includes residents of the Northern Beaches who left the Northern Beaches area before 5:02pm on Saturday 19 December, as they are required to comply with the stay-at-home order, even if they are on holidays elsewhere.

“That means if you’re visiting our Shire and are from the Northern Beaches, you must comply with the Public Health (COVID-19 Northern Beaches) Order 2020 directions and not leave your temporary accommodation without a reasonable excuse.”

Cr King said the Public Health (COVID-19

Northern Beaches) Order 2020 identified a reasonable excuse as including obtaining food or other goods and services, travelling for the purpose of work or education, and leaving your temporary accommodation to exercise or for medical or caring reasons.

“These rules aren’t optional because our own local medical and health professionals have worked tirelessly to prevent localised transmission of the virus and avoid the closure of the local medical clinics we rely on and protect local businesses who have done it tough recently,” he continued.

“The rules apply to everybody though, so for those of you in our community who are

Trail Bike Problem At Moonee Moonee Residents With Concern About Dirt Bikes Unhappy With Forestry Corporation

By Andrew VIVIAN

SOME residents at Heritage Park, Moonee Beach, are concerned about trail bikes creating a path within metres of

their properties on land under the control of the Forestry Corporation.

Residents claim that up to twelve bikes at a

time traverse the path at high speed, in an area also used by bush walkers and near to where children often play.

NSW Police Public Site also encouraged anyone who has information regarding individuals or businesses in contravention of a COVID19-related ministerial direction is urged to contact Crime Stoppers online via https://nsw.

They wrote to the Forestry Corporation to outline their concerns about public nuisance, danger to others and possible fire risk.

They feel that the

Basically, the Forestry Corporation reply outlines the steps that are taken to inform users of State Forests about appropriate behaviour, but offers no solutions to the issue, apart from

$1m data centre proposed for Airport A development application for a $1 million ‘data centre’ at Enterprise Park Coffs Harbour’s Airport Enterprise Park has been lodged

By Emma DARBIN

THE development involves construction of an external shell structure around the data centre, known as a solar shield, the installation of associated infrastructure including air conditioning condensers, generators, electrical kiosks, cabling and solar panels, and car parking and landscaping on the Lot 91 site in the Park.

The development application for the telecommunications facility was lodged with Council in December, 2020 by Leading Edge Data Centres, and proposes to use fibre optic cable to create a guided network.

Coffs Harbour City Council general manager Steve McGrath stated at Council’s last meeting on December 10 that Council’s vision for Airport Enterprise Park was to accommodate “high-tech businesses”.

“They’re the sort of businesses that we want to attract to assist the City in its growth,” Mr McGrath stated.

Council is currently seeking to rezone Airport Enterprise Park from SP1 Special Activity (Air Transport Facility) to attract industrial and high-tech businesses into the area.

Council is seeking to lodge a Proponent Led Planning Proposal to request an amendment to the Coffs Harbour Local Environment Plan 2013 for the subdivision, to create three distinct zones within Airport Enterprise Park including retaining areas of SP1 zoning, and creating a B5 (Business Development) precinct and an IN1 (General Industrial) precinct.

The Northern Regional Planning Panel has been delegated by Council to be the planning proposal authority for the rezoning of Airport Enterprise Park, to resolve Council’s conflict of interest in being both the developer of the Park and the regulatory authority, in relation to development of the subdivision.

The development of the proposed Leading Edge Data Centre telecommunications facility is permissible in any zone, with consent under the State Environmental Planning

with Coffs Harbour City Council

q A $1m data centre has been proposed to be established in the new Coffs Harbour Airport Enterprise Park. Photo: Coffs Harbour City Council.

Policy (Infrastructure) 2007 (ISEPP).

Council is currently constructing the 99-lot subdivision at Coffs Harbour Airport which makes up the northern part of the Airport precinct, fronting Hogbin Drive and Christmas Bells Road.

The subdivision was approved by the Joint Regional Planning Panel in 2017, and will deliver a 43-hectare subdivision yielding 23 hectares of leasable land.

Under the recent Coffs Harbour Airport 50-year lease arrangement between Council and Palisade Investment Partners, Council retains responsibility to develop Airport Enterprise Park, with all development applications for businesses within the Park to be lodged with Council for approval.

When the Park has been developed by Council it will become the lessees responsibility.

Leading Edge Data Centres (LEDC) is a

technology company building the first Tier III edge data centres across regional Australia to allow businesses and communities in regional towns and cities to have a greater choice to access a stable, reliable and cost effective network.

LEDC data centres work by adding an additional computing platform between the user and the cloud, allowing for faster data transfer.

LEDC is a licensed telecommunications carrier

which allows customers to safely store data offsite on servers with 24 hour security and power monitoring.

The facility is proposed to operate on a 24 hour seven day a week basis, but it will be a dark site meaning that it is a secure and unoccupied site.

On average, the proposed site will be serviced once weekly during its first three months of operation for installation and maintenance, then once a month for maintenance purposes if it is approved.

Leg Up for Trainees and Apprentices

Trainees and Apprentices Group Training Program Looking for Mature Workers on the Coffs Coast

By Sandra MOON DID you know there is a program in our area that takes the pressure off businesses by employing apprentices and trainees on their behalf?

It also guarantees the apprentice or trainee another business match if their program falls through?

What is this magical unicorn program?

It is a program called Group Training and is offered

by Novaskill Coffs Harbour.

Unlike other trainee and apprenticeship programs the training provider is the employer and this means less work for the business owner.

According to NovaSkill Manager Andrew Simons, “We invoice the employer for the wage.

“For a small employer it is ideal as they don't have to worry about payroll tax, annual leave and award rates.

“We take care of all that and it makes it so much easier for the local electrician and plumber and others to take on an apprentice or trainee,” he said.

“The benefit to the trainee and apprentice is that if it falls through we can deliver

Employment Facilitator Announcement FEDERAL Member for Cowper Pat Conaghan says a newly-appointed Employment Facilitator for the electorate will help job seekers find work as part of the Australian Government’s $62.8 million Local Jobs Program.

The Employment Facilitator will work onthe-ground in Cowper to support employers and job seekers to connect with employment and training opportunities.

Mr Conaghan said the Employment Facilitator will also chair a Local Jobs and Skills Taskforce addressing the needs of the Cowper electorate.

“I’m confident they will come up with local solutions that will benefit the entire community,” he said.

“They’ll drive innovative ideas to address the unique challenges in Cowper by bringing together local businesses, training providers and job seekers.

“The Taskforce will identify projects that can be funded by the Australian

Government through the Local Recovery Fund, ranging from $10,000 to $200,000.”

Coffs Harbour Chamber of Commerce president Ray Smith says the chamber is supportive of the Federal Government’s initiative.

“We look forward to working with the new Employment Facilitator,” he said.

“The government should be congratulated on being proactive in the creation of this role and working to connect job seekers with employment opportunities on the Coffs Coast.

“I look forward to seeing more local jobs for local people and helping grow the local economy.”

Mr Conaghan said the Employment Facilitator will provide a local presence in Cowper to support employers and job seekers to connect to local employment and training opportunities.

The Employment Facilitator will work with local stakeholders including employers, employment services providers and training organisations to drive the development of a Local Jobs Plan.

The Facilitators will also support local stakeholders

q Coffs Harbour Chamber of Commerce president Ray Smith. to create targeted projects that meet the priorities of the plan.

Facilitators will work with organisations that apply for funding through the Local Recovery Funds to ensure employment opportunities are maximised.

The Mid-North Coast Employment Facilitator, Janine Culnane from Regional Development Australia – Mid North Coast, will start on 18 January 2021.

The interim Employment Facilitator for the region is still available, with further information at https:// www.dese.gov.au/localjobs-program.

Waste levy waived for flood damaged goods

THE NSW Government has waived the waste levy fee for residents disposing of flood generated waste across NSW North Coast areas that have been declared Natural Disaster Areas.

NSW EPA Executive Director Regulatory Operations Steve Beaman said thousands of people in NSW are reeling from the effects of the floods impacting their communities.

“Where the emergency has passed in some areas,

residents will face a hard and painful clean-up process,” Mr Beaman said.

“To help these communities dispose of their flood damaged goods quickly and safely we have waived the NSW Government waste levy, in levy-affected areas.

“Building materials, furniture and any other flood generated waste is included.”

The region experienced a week long deluge of rain in mid December with flood watches issued for Coffs Harbour, and

high rainfall has continued over the school holiday period.

The exemption applies until 31 March on debris and waste created by local flooding.

The levy will be waived at Coffs Harbour City Council and Bellingen Shire Council waste facilities, however local waste facility gate fees may still apply.

“We hope this will ease some of the pressure people are feeling after the floods,” Mr Beaman said.

Centrelink Defends Income Stream Letters

By Andrew VIVIAN

SEVERAL readers contacted News Of The Area after last week’s article about Centrelink letters requiring part pensioners with superannuation income streams to supply information during the Christmas period.

Readers’ experiences varied slightly, but all were confused and annoyed at having to provide information that they felt Centrelink already had, at a time of the year when most offices were

closing for holidays.

One reader wrote that, during a phone call to Centrelink, after asking why they did not have the information from his superannuation fund automatically, he was told, “We haven’t heard from you for a while.”

Another reader said he has been receiving a part pension and income from a superannuation stream for two decades, and had not previously received any such letter.

A reader in Bellingen

received his letter late, because of postal issues, and had only 5 days to comply.

When he was finally able to contact Centrelink, he said he was told that they already had the information.

An 86-year-old reader said that she was away when the letter arrived and had 5 days to respond when she returned home.

She was fortunate to have a financial advisor who helped her during his holidays.

She also said that she had, previously, at considerable inconvenience, attended her

Mask up at Coffs Airport Face masks now mandatory at Coffs Harbour Airport

AS of Tuesday 12 January, it is now mandatory for all travellers over the age of twelve to wear a face mask at Coffs Harbour Airport.

Following the announcement of the new NSW Government public health order, Coffs Harbour Airport is advising people to bring their own mask if they need to enter the terminal to travel, avoid going into the airport terminal if they are picking up or dropping

off passengers, continue to maintain social distancing and hand hygiene practices, check with their airline for flight updates, and refer to the NSW Government for updated information on current travel restrictions.

Under the new regulation, face masks must be worn indoors at all NSW airports and on domestic commercial flights into or out of NSW, including when the flight is landing at or taking off from

the airport or flying in NSW airspace.

Those not wearing a face mask risk a $200 on the spot fine.

Children aged twelve years and under are exempt from the new ruling, but are encouraged to wear masks where practicable.

Masks should not be worn by toddlers under two years of age and babies, as they are a choking and suffocation risk.

local Centrelink office after receiving a letter only to be told that the information had already been provided.

All of the readers who contacted News Of The Area are with NSW State Super.

A Services Australia spokesperson responded to News Of The Area’s queries with, “We became aware of this issue late last year and worked quickly with NSW State Super to resolve it.”

The spokesperson added, “NSW State Super members who have received a letter about this don't need to do

anything unless we get in touch with them.”

Services Australia wrote that it routinely sends an Income Stream Review letter in situations where a provider doesn’t give it the information directly, encouraging customers to check with their provider to update the details.

It stated that, normally, NSW State Super would have already provided this complete information to Services Australia, but it did not happen in this case.

Services Australia did not clarify why Centrelink clients

were contacted, rather than NSW State Super.

It also did not address what readers perceived to be the poor timing of the letters or that follow up letters were not sent out when the problem became apparent.

Services Australia recommends that anyone with further concerns can call NSW State Super on 1300 652 113.

The recorded message at this number informs callers that relevant information has been sent to Services Australia.

Sawtell Sunny Side Babies Meet Up

By Sandra MOON A SOCIAL membership group of old Sawtellians have been friends for sixty years and have been meeting for the last four regularly for coffee.

The group now boasts over two hundred members and was started by Trevor Amos and Robert Wright to gather friends and reminisce of days pre-1960.

Mr Amos spoke with News Of The Area about his motivation to start the group.

“What motivated me was to keep in contact with old friends and reminisce of days gone by.

“You lose these people as time goes by but you have your memories.

“As you go back over these you realise they were the best times of your life and you didn’t realise then that you were making memories.”

Mr Amos is proud to call himself a Sunny Side baby, born in the old Sunny Side Hospital on Maclean Street in Coffs Harbour.

“A lot of the group are Sunny Side babies.

“It means an old world charm,” he said.

CHH

q The 2020 end of year catch up at Sawtell with around thirty or so members gathered.

“We all felt like brothers and sisters where we grew up just after the war and it was all hardship and the community banded together and helped each other out without expectations of anything in return.

“Hence we have been friends for 60 or 70 years.”

Mr Amos’s aunty, Ms Helen Amos, is also part of

the group and as a former teacher of Sawtell School regularly attends the events and enjoys catching up with students of over sixty years ago.

Members of the group now reside all over Australia and New Zealand.

The group currently has about two hundred members.

The group has a closed

Facebook private page and tries to keep close as a family.

“We call ourselves The Old Sawtell Family.

“It is a good feeling.

“You can look back and have shared memories.

“It's what makes us all as people because we are also brought up by our friends as well as our families,” Mr Amos said.

By Andrew VIVIAN

CHANGING COVID-19 restrictions have resulted in several modifications to plans, and, currently, the event will be held with slightly reduced numbers to meet protocols.

Organisers stress that all of the features that have made the breakfast inspiring in the past continue.

The breakfast will be hosted by last year’s Coffs Coast Woman of the Year, Lily Isabella.

The awards include Woman of the Year, the Zonta Young Women In Public Affairs Award Winner and the International Women’s Day Award For A Young Woman In The Performing Arts.

The guest speaker this year is Dr Rosie

Ross, who describes herself as a high school dropout, herbalist, registered nurse, indigenous doctor, Practice Principal of a thriving medical centre, mentor, medical educator and speaker, storyteller and upcoming author.

She will talk about dealing with the discovery of being part of the Stolen Generations in her thirties, being a mother of three and being motivated to go back to high school in her mid-forties and graduating with a medical degree in her early fifties when many of her friends were planning early retirement.

Dr Ross has a long history of choosing to challenge social norms.

She has co-authored an upcoming book with Joanne Vines called ‘Approaching the Pause’.

SCU Staff Return Delay

The emerging situation of further clusters of COVID-19 has impacted the campus return date for staff at Southern Cross University

By Sandra MOON

THE emerging situation of further clusters of COVID-19 has impacted the campus return date for staff at Southern Cross University Originally scheduled to return on Monday 4 January, one month prior to students’ start date, staff will now return to the campus on Monday February 1.

This will coincide with students’ return to campus and the start date for Session One study.

Campuses closed to most student classes and activities in March of 2020 with most staff working from home during the year.

Vice President (Operations) Allan Morris said the sudden COVID-19 outbreak in NSW and the

unpredictable nature of the virus’s spread have forced a delay in University staff returning to work on campus in 2021.

“Southern Cross has always, and will continue to put the health and safety of our students and staff as our first priority,” Mr Morris said.

“We would much rather act with caution and in the context of the current fastchanging environment and not be forced into making lastminute or multiple changes to plans.”

Southern Cross has about 9000 students across its three main campuses at Lismore, Gold Coast and Coffs Harbour and about 5000 online.

“It is important to recognise that COVID-19 remains an active issue,” Mr Morris warned.

When staff do return to the campuses, adherence to the 1.5m ‘physical distancing’ guidelines, as set by the relevant state health departments, will be required.

Student Ambassadors

will be engaged as COVID-19 Marshalls to remind people to maintain ‘physical distancing’, especially in high traffic areas such as the libraries, cafés, building foyers and corridors.

All people on campus will be required to register their attendance each day.

Mr Morris thanked university staff for their patience this year and their ability to successfully work from home, identifying that this could be a more common arrangement in the future.

“We recognise that there is a ‘new norm’ post COVID-19 and we will be flexible in balancing the needs of the institution with the personal needs of staff wherever practical,” he said.

NDIS Double Dip Coffs Coast Local Makes Submission to Parliament on NDIS Double Dip

By Sandra MOON

LOCAL National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) participant Mark Hardy made a submission to the Joint Standing Committee (JSC) on the NDIS regarding a loophole that concerns him.

The loophole could effectively mean that some health practitioners could double dip charging two separate patients for the same appointment time.

Mr Hardy, who self manages his NDIS package has a background in accounting and auditing.

He spoke with News Of The Area about his concerns and what he calls a lack of quality control.

“There is an issue with charging for such things as not turning up for appointments and allowing allied health workers to charge.

“I had a situation where I was unable to turn up for an appointment, because I woke up sick.

“I was advised by q Mr Mark Hardy submitted to the service provider the JSC on the loophole in the that I would not be NDIS. charged, but they sent an invoice to my

financial intermediary for payment.”

Mr Hardy was then advised by the allied health service that when they have a cancellation they can ring someone on their waiting list to come in for a same day appointment.

“If they have someone come in and they charge them and also charge the NDIS then they are committing fraud against the government.”

Mr Hardy, who was approached to make the submission to the Joint Standing Committee, said, “I also consider the audit fees that are being charged to providers are excessive and restrict local registered auditors from being competitive in the marketplace.

“With this on cost reduced then savings can be made for the provider.”

The Joint Standing Committee on the NDIS tabled two reports on General issues relating to the implementation and performance of the NDIS in the House of Representatives and the Senate in December.

The unanimous report includes the National Disability Insurance Agency’s (NDIA) proposal to introduce independent assessments as part of NDIS access and planning processes, and issues arising during the COVID-19 pandemic.

It also considers financial matters related to the NDIS; issues affecting particular cohorts of people with disability; and other key issues relating to the implementation and performance of the scheme.

“The report makes 10 recommendations which aim to improve the NDIS for participants, providers and other key stakeholders,” Committee Chair, the Hon Kevin Andrews MP said.

“Some of the issues reviewed in this report have been more thoroughly examined by the committee in other inquiries or have been considered in inquiries conducted by other bodies.

“Consequently, in a number of instances the committee proposes to maintain a watching brief and encourages the Australian Government to give close consideration to the matters raised in this report,” Mr Andrews said.

The committee thanked all contributors, such as Mr Hardy for expressing their views via submissions.

“The strength of partnerships with local governments and the Return and Earn scheme is evidenced through the number of return

This change in attitude to litter and recycling can be seen across NSW with 64% of NSW residents stating the scheme will increase the amount of recycling they do.

“The remarkable success of the NSW container deposit scheme in its first three years is a result of the joint efforts between State and Local Government, industry and the community,” Ms Smalley said.

Today, 75% of NSW residents have participated in the scheme, and two out of every three drink containers

Koala Supporters Underwhelmed by NSW Government Support

By Andrew VIVIAN

THE NSW Government has released its response to the ‘Inquiry into koala populations and habitat in NSW’ and conservationists are disappointed.

The inquiry found that koala numbers were down to 15,000-20,000 and they could be extinct in NSW before 2050.

The report had 42 recommendations, and the Government has committed to supporting only eleven of them.

Seventeen recommendations are ‘Supported in Principle’ and fourteen are ‘Noted’, which many people understand to mean that it is unlikely to happen in the foreseeable future.

Positive responses included the commitment to continue to prohibit timber harvesting in areas of old growth forest, and rainforest, on both public and private land in NSW and the creation of the Georges River National Park to secure habitat on Sydney's southern fringe.

Of particular concern to conservationists on the Coffs Coast is that the 41st recommendation, “That the NSW Government investigate the establishment of the Great Koala National Park“ is only ‘Noted’.

The Government’s response is as follows, “The Government will continue to work with local communities, councils and industry to investigate a range of options and measures for koala habitat protection across NSW. “This includes consideration of the flow-on effects to communities from changes in land tenure and resource availability (including mineral, timber and construction industry resources).”

The Government declined to reinstate the State Environmental Planning Policy (Koala Habitat Protection) Guideline (that was withdrawn after disagreement within the LNP Coalition) or reinstate legal thresholds in the Local Land Services Act 2013 to improve or maintain environmental outcomes and protect native vegetation.

Cate Faehrmann, Greens MP and Chair of

the Inquiry said, “Like the old Koala Strategy, it won’t be worth the paper it’s written on if it doesn’t address the key threat to the ongoing survival of koalas in NSW which is the ongoing destruction of their habitat.”

Local Greens spokesperson, Jonathan Cassell, told News Of The Area that he was very disappointed.

He said, “The Government has just gone for ‘low-hanging fruit’ and has done little to ensure the long-term survival of koalas.”

According to Kate Washington, the Shadow Minister for Environment and Heritage, “Somehow, the Government has found a way to weasel out of almost every recommendation.”

She added that, “The Government’s lamentable response to this important inquiry spells danger for koalas in NSW.”

Bellingen Ceramicists on Fire for Arts Week

By Sandra MOON GET on down this weekend to catch the Bellingen Shire Arts Week and all it has to offer.

Arts, music, performance and workshops are all on offer as Dorrigo, Bellingen and Urunga’s finest artists share what they do best.

Usually at this time of year one of Bellingen’s main events, Camp Creative is held but due to COVID-19 has been postponed to 2022 so the

Expect to find 2D and 3D artwork around the town’s galleries, shopfronts, libraries, information centres and cafes.

There will be workshops for adults and children, performances, open studios, street art, music, drama, poetry readings and concerts.

You will also be able to see some of Bellingen’s ceramic artists and their wares on display at the Carriageway Emporium.

Kylie Loebel, of Yellow Robin Studio, invites visitors to check out the beautiful ceramic surfaces.

Free diary informs seniors of Legal Aid NSW have produced a free diary that their informs seniors of their legal rights that covers range of topics including finances, aged rights a widecare, elder abuse and avoiding scams

By David TUNE

LEGAL Aid NSW have produced a free diary that informs seniors of their legal rights that covers a wide range of topics including finances, aged care, elder abuse and avoiding scams.

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) reported that over 65s submitted more than 26,400 reports to Scamwatch in 2018 (a five per cent rise), which included losses of over $21.4 million (a 22 per cent increase).

Member for Coffs Harbour Gurmesh Singh encourages local seniors to pick up a free copy of the ‘Legal topics for older people’ 2021 diary to help them plan for the year ahead.

They are available from his electorate office at Suite 1/9 Park Avenue, Coffs Harbour.

“Older people are the backbone of the Coffs Coast community,” Mr Singh said.

“This free diary is an amazing resource for seniors in our community.

“It provides a one-stopshop for information about

everything from retirement villages, family finances and the pension, to elder abuse and scams.”

Acting Minister for Seniors Geoff Lee said the 2021 diary will support seniors in countering the scourge of elder abuse.

“Older Australians across our State have a right to feel safe and to be treated with dignity.

“That’s why this year’s diary contains important information about how to identify elder abuse, and details about where you or your family can get help,” Dr

The diary will keep readers up to date with events like the NSW Seniors Festival, NSW Grandparents Day and 2021 school holiday period,.importantly, it will also provide referral details to relevant legal and nonlegal services that can assist older people with their concerns and provide them with avenues for support.

Online orders for the diary and calendar can be made at https://www.legalaid.nsw. gov.au/publications/order-apublication from 11 January 2021.

Lovebites Charity Ball raising funds for Family and Domestic Violence program

ON Saturday 6 March the C.ex Group will host the Lovebites Charity Ball to raise funds to support the Love Bites Program through the Coffs Coast Committee Against Family and Domestic Violence.

The Love Bites and Love Bites Junior programs are educational programs that focus on the development of respectful relationships and violence prevention for Years 7-10, in schools and other settings about healthy relationships.

The program helps shift attitudes, norms and behaviours that enable, excuse, or minimise the extent and impact of violence.

The overall aims of the program are to equip young people with the knowledge

needed to have respectful relationships, encourage and develop their skills in critical thinking and assist them in being able to problem solve and communicate effectively.

The Love Bites Charity Ball aims to raise awareness and vital funds to support the Love Bites program on the Coffs Coast with 100% of ticket proceeds going directly to the Love Bites Program through the Coffs Coast Committee Against Family and Domestic Violence.

The event is proudly

media@newsofthearea.com.au

sponsored by C.ex Group and National Association for Prevention of Child abuse and Neglect (NAPCAN); and supported by NSW Police and Regional NSW. C.ex Group Marketing Manager Shona Hunter said, "The C.ex Group has long been a supporter of local initiatives that are important to our community and the Lovebites Programs is a fantastic way for us to give back to our community.

“We heard about the Lovebites Program, via Kiah

Bowen, Region Domestic Violence Coordinator of NSW Police Force and Meena Johnson, President of the Coffs Coast Committee Against Domestic and Family Violence, and immediately wanted to get involved and contribute in any way we could to assist with getting the Program awareness and funds that it needs.

“We envisage that this program will be run at every high school in the Coffs Coast electorate which can only be beneficial for our children and community.”

STILL National Still Life Award is back for 2021!

Coffs Harbour’s place on the national arts map.

The contemporary art prize is open to all mediums and artists at all stages of their career, with the genre of still life offering fertile ground for

the exploration of themes that pertain to our very existence.

“STILL National Still Life Award enables artists to dig deep into themes of life and death, the passage of time, the nature of objects and

ENJOY 50 years of Bruce Mathiske’s best in one jam packed afternoon of musical excellence.

Celebrating the release of his very first “Best Of” CD, the renowned guitar virtuoso brings his live show to the Coffs Coast.

Leaving no stone unturned, the night will feature solo/band, past/ present and originals/ classics.

This chameleon of the guitar is also the only virtuoso guitarist/didgeridoo player in the world and Bruce will perform his outback anthem “Toward Horizons” using this unique combination to paint musical pictures of the Australian landscape.

All blending beautifully with the colours and tones of percussionist Adam Manning who will join Mathiske and draw on the inspiration of his Indigenous heritage, by creating a painting live on stage which will evolve over the evening and will be given away at the end of the concert.

Bruce’s performances and workshops demonstrate the diversity of his chosen

instrument.

His use of the guitar to become its own orchestra, and his unique style of playing bass, rhythm and melody simultaneously has led to standing ovations and sell-out concerts all over the world.

“Displays technical brilliance and mastery of genres with an admirable absence of ostentation.

Mathiske is the finest allround guitarist this country has produced” - Tony Hillier, The Australian.

“The notes explode from both hands leaving you to wonder if there is another Mathiske in the wings. By the time he had added the didgeridoo and wowed us with outrageous harmonics from far flung corners of his guitar, we were all his” - The Scotsman Edinburgh Festival His live shows are a renowned experience, one that he continues to bring to major concert and festival stages world-wide including the Edinburgh Festival, Glasgow International Jazz Festival, Nashville Guitar Festival, France’s International Guitar Festival, the London Music

Festival, and in his homeland at the Sydney Festival, Bellingen Global Carnival and the Woodford, Port Fairy and National Folk Festivals plus many more. Bruce is among the few Australian musicians to have been invited to

perform and host workshops and a concert at America’s prestigious Yale University.

He has overcome many obstacles during his career, from left sided paralysis after being shot in the head, to breaking a finger a few days

Artists are invited to enter the STILL National Still Life Award 2021 as Coffs Harbour Regional Gallery announces its call for entries for the biennial, acquisitive award of $30,000 for the major winner and $5,000 for the People’s Choice

to select the 50-60 finalists who make up the exhibition and it’s always a wonderful surprise to see the works entered for consideration.

Today the Coffs Harbour Regional Gallery continues to attract high profile judges for the award.

“Our upcoming judge in 2021 is Elizabeth Ann Macgregor OBE, Director of Sydney’s Museum of Contemporary Art. “We are thrilled to be able to welcome her to Coffs Harbour in August for the judging and exhibition opening,” adds Ms Fogarty.

Ms Macgregor is renowned for her ongoing commitment to engaging new audiences for the work of living artists, successfully transforming the MCA into a thriving public

gallery and securing major redevelopment including a National Centre for Creative Learning.

Her contribution to the arts was recognised with the Veuve Clicquot Business Woman Award in 2008 and an OBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours in 2011.

A signature event in the cultural calendar of the region, STILL National Still Life Award has a wide ranging audience demographic from curious community members to avid art lovers.

Entries are accepted online from 18 January and close 12 April.

NOW in its third year and coinciding with the Gallery’s 20th Anniversary, STILL has developed a strong profile despite being a relative newcomer on the arts landscape, cementing

observations of our personal environments,” explains Coffs Harbour Regional Gallery’s Cath Fogarty.

“After a year of fires, floods, pandemics and time indoors during lockdown, we anticipate that this year’s finalists will be offering up some very interesting reflections on still life through their art making.”

As in 2017 and 2019, the gallery team is confident the award will attract hundreds of entries from around the country and will include sculpture, printmaking, installation, painting, ceramics, photography and video – all highlighting the diversity and vitality of still life in Australian contemporary art practice.

HYPOTHETICAL Taking a Legal Look

Email Jasminda: media@newsofthearea.com.au

D

By Manny WOOD

Unconscionable exploitation claim PETER, 75, is suffering from poor eyesight and lives alone on a large rural property.

Peter informs an acquaintance, David, that he has eye surgery scheduled and that he is concerned about his future and his finances.

They agree that Peter will sell David 50% of the property for $400,000 and that David can move into one of the two houses on the property.

David prepares a document purporting to record the sale of 50% of Peter’s property to David.

Peter signs the document and accepts a $100 deposit. He does not obtain legal advice.

When Peter recovers from the eye surgery, he is angered when he discovers that the document that he signed states that the purchase price is only $300,000 and that settlement is in 12 months’ time.

David moves onto the property and Peter serves him with a notice to vacate.

Peter commences action in the Supreme Court, seeking a declaration that the document be set aside for unconscionability and an order that David be removed from the property.

David relies on the written document and further submits that he has improved the property by cleaning, landscaping and maintenance. David claims that at the time of the hearing, he had worked thousands of hours on the property and that he is entitled to $100,000 in compensation for improving the property.

The Court states that Peter was “duped” and that David was aware of Peter’s vulnerability.

The Court views the $100 deposit as farcical and ultimately accepts Peter’s evidence that David bullied his way onto the property.

The Court sets aside the agreement and orders that David vacate the property.

The Court orders that Peter pays David compensation of only $100, being the return of the deposit.

If YOU would like a particular issue addressed please email Manny at manny.wood@ticliblaxland.com.au or call him on (02) 6648 7487.

Trees need CO2 DEAR News Of The Area,

I FIND it ironic that the Climate Change Committee stresses the importance of trees and plants for public health (NOTA 30/12/20) but ignores the importance of carbon dioxide to the health of plants.

They want more trees but wish to reduce the carbon

dioxide they and all life need to thrive.

At the moment atmospheric carbon dioxide is close to its lowest level in the planet's history.

During previous geological periods when carbon dioxide levels were far higher than today, plant (and animal) life thrived to such an extent that it

Dear Heidi,

resulted in the formation of (dare I use that four letter word) COAL. I agree that more trees are good but don’t deprive them of the essence of life, carbon.

Regards, W Duesbury, Boambee.

Road safety misconceptions

By Chief Inspector Brendan Gorman A MESSAGE from Chief Inspector Brendan Gorman about road safety: There is often a misconception when it comes to bad driver behaviour and we need to talk about it.

More often than not, we hear people say that the people breaking the road rules are visitors and tourists who aren’t familiar with the roads and surrounds.

This simply is not true.

During our most recent road operation over the Christmas and New Year period, more than half of traffic infringements issued to motorists were given to

people who reside within the district.

Same goes for all other legal processes, such as field and future court attendance notices for traffic offences – around three quarters of all these infringements were issued to locals.

Specifically, 21 out of 31 of those charged with alleged drink-driving live within the Coffs/Clarence PD; and out of the 667 infringements issued, 330 of those were to people who live in the Coffs/ Clarence region.

This is unacceptable behaviour, with locals simply brushing off the road rules, saying it’s visitors who are the rule breakers.

These stats clearly show this is not the case.

Road safety is everyone’s responsibility – drivers must be aware of everyone surrounding them and their environment to ensure their own safety and the safety of those inside their vehicles.

The number of drinkdriving offences – including those who are on their second offence – is startling. Getting behind the wheel of a vehicle after drinking is irresponsible on every level.

Let’s all work together to stop this misconception that it’s the tourists who are breaking the traffic rules – it’s our friends, our family members, our neighbours.

We all need to remind each other that it is all of our responsibilities to protect lives on the road.

I GUESS it all depends on what type of teenages you want to produce. If it’s ones that sit on the lounge eating Cheezels with a blankie over their legs while you

sweep around them, then wash away.

If, however, you’d like children who can show initiative and leadership, then

perhaps just leave their dirty washing on the basket or strewn across the floor until they discover they need it. That will result

in the perfect opportunity to give them a

quick run down in Module B of Adulting:

‘Learn to do your own washing or smell like a wet sock’.

I hope this helps you sort the issue

out. PS: I bet your husband doesn’t do his

washing. Don’t make a clone of him for the next generation.

Carpe diem, Jasminda

Australia the Lucky Country

DEAR News Of The Area,

I HAVE in the past made reference to the fact that we here in Australia arguably live in the best country on the planet.

This has certainly been reinforced when we look at the Covid 19 infection rates and loss of life throughout the world.

We can be a country

which can be critical of our leaders and their decisions at times but that is our right when you live in a democracy.

I do not see a problem with this as long as it is done in an orderly and peaceful manner.

We only need to look at what has happened and still occurring in the USA to realise how lucky we are.

Donald Trump has been an embarrassment and a disgrace to the position of the US Presidency. He is a megalomaniac who has shown he will do anything to maintain power. He has placed his personal egotistical concerns over the welfare of his nation and even currently is fueling the unrest that exists in the country. I

believe he has lost all credibility with many world leaders including his own Republican party and probably most Australians. I, like many from our country that is " One & Free" wonder in amazement how someone who is in his position and often referred to as the "Leader of the Free World" can behave in such an

News Of The Area

abhorrent and bizarre manner with total disregard to the democratic process.

Perhaps we should put the US experience in the "drawer" and be thankful for what we have here in Australia. It is unrealistic to believe or expect to get everything you want but rest assured there are avenues in place here to have your opinions heard.

Our local members are readily available and can follow a "chain of command" to ensure our concerns are passed on to the relevant departments.

In 2021 with the replacement of Donald Trump the US can confidently say "God bless these United States of America."

Regards, Bob Kennedy Toormina

Lowanna waste management Outbreak of DEAR News Of The Area,

SO the citizens of Lowanna are disgusted at the Coffs Harbour Council who fenced the local tip and started charging fees for rubbish.

The Council I believe has no legal right to fence off the local tip.

After talking with older residents of Lowanna I soon discovered that the land the tip is on was donated to Lowanna people so they had a place to take their rubbish.

As a resident of Lowanna, I am really annoyed at Coffs Council for blocking Lowanna people from land that is not even theirs.

The people of Lowanna pay rates like everyone else in the Coffs Harbour district but unlike everyone else we get no consideration.

After the bushfires came the torrential rain that made the mountain road hard to drive due to the flash flooding across the road but residents

took it in their stride after realising the council did not care about their road.

So what do we get for our rates?

Nothing!

Everyone has to arrange their own water, they have no curb and guttering, they take care of their own sewage with septics.

The park was there from years and years ago so the residents of Lowanna get nothing for their rates while the Council takes the local tip

that was donated to the citizens of Lowanna.

I'd say this is illegal and morally wrong.

It seems the Council is putting up rates and claiming land than charging citizens one has to ask why? Maybe it's to raise funds for new Council quarters that no local wants.

Regards, F Fokes, Lowanna.

banana panama DEAR News Of The Area, I HAVE been directed to you as I need to voice my serious concern over a problem that is capable of destroying my business and the viability of my industry. Just above the last roundabout, leaving town on Coramba Rd Coffs Harbour, is an uncontrolled rampant outbreak of banana panama disease "Race 1".

This disease has no cure and destroys the lucrative lady finger and ducasse banana varieties.

The spores of this disease travel in soil and water and the likelihood of a rapid spread by traffic using Coramba Rd and the fruit stall below the diseased bananas is extremely high.

Regards, Joshua Tate

56 Joeliza Drive, Repton Price: $780,000-$790,000 Open For Inspection: Saturday 16 January, 11.00am-11.30am THIS big, private residence has been home to the same family for about 18 years and is being offered for sale for the first time.

Those wanting to stretch out, work from home or those with larger families will love the flexible floor plan, as will people who want rural-style living with easy, level access and room to breathe (or space to keep extra vehicles, boats, camper trailers etc).

Positioned on the block to take advantage of both the sunlight and the tranquil, towering gums, the home also has wide wraparound verandahs, which really suit the Aussie bush lifestyle.

Entry is into the spacious

Friday, 15 January, 2021

open plan living area, which fits a large lounge suite and square eight-seater dining table with ease.

There's also a Eureka wood fire.

The adjoining galley kitchen with walk-in-pantry has a lovely aspect out to the gardens and there's a family room beyond to set up a kids' play area or perhaps a homework station, to supervise the kids while you're preparing dinner.

Those who work from home will love the fact the fifth bedroom is just beyond this space, allowing the ideal office zone while keeping the other bedrooms more private (the family bathroom is conveniently also on this level).

While not having to share a bedroom is bound to keep the kids of bigger families happy, the parents haven't been forgotten

either, with a serene retreat upstairs.

A bay-style window is the ideal spot to enjoy the tranquil tree-lined outlook, and there's a deck off here large enough for a bistro setting for your morning cup of tea.

An ensuite and walk-in-robe complete the picture.

Back downstairs and a spacious covered outdoor entertaining area is perfect for barbecues or entertaining friends, and the largely gravel driveway to the double lock up garage provides easy access to this area and beyond.

Bring your van, trailer and perhaps kayaks for Sunday morning trips down to the Bellinger River at Mylestom.

the garage, there are two drinking water tanks of approximately 24,500 litres (6,500 gallons) and approximately 32,500 litres (8,500 gallons) along with a third tank for watering the garden which also has a fire pump.

Go for a stroll down the block (or drive your ride-on mower) beyond the bush and out into another open paddock at the rear.

You're bound to be surprised.

There's a lot more easily accessible space than you might imagine.

Designed to suit the block, this home still has plenty of scope to add your own personal touches, or simply move in, stretch out and enjoy the easy family living as is!

FRIDAY

PLANET OF TREASURES

SBS, 7.30pm

Lately, when we talk about humans’ effects on the Earth, it’s in terms of deforestation, pollution and climate change. This six-part series looks on the bright side of history, highlighting some of the planet’s greatest testaments to human ingenuity. The tour of man-made masterpieces is led by Sir Christopher Clark, an Australian historian who divides his time between England and Germany. Tonight, he’s in South-East Asia, uncovering the cultural wealth of Cambodia’s Angkor Wat temple complex, the old royal cities of Hue in Vietnam and Luang Prabang in Laos. In Ha Long Bay, the world’s biggest cave, Clark learns how nature and culture often go hand-in-hand.

If your own lockdown-inspired renovation projects sit around you half-finished, you’d be best to tune into this new <i>Grand Designs</i> four-part series to get the boost to finish the job, if for nothing more than to put things into perspective.

Host Kevin McCloud (pictured) ais in his element here as he visits contenders for Royal Institute of British Architects House of the Year Award. In his trademark manner, which teeters on the edge of supportive and dismissive, McCloud won’t hold back his critiques as he tours homes in the ‘experimental’ category tonight, of which all the builders aim to stand out of the crowd.

WEDNESDAY

I’M A CELEBRITY… GET ME OUT OF HERE!

WIN, 7.30pm

They might not utter it, but surely there are moments when the well-known, once-known or littleknown celebrities on this show are thinking, “But don’t you know who I think I am?” And that is one of the reasons this show – now in its seventh iteration – is so fun to watch. Us mere mortals get to giggle a little as the uncomfortable contestants squirm.

Tonight, ever-energetic hosts Dr Chris Brown and Julia Morris set the celebrities a challenge with the incentive of a roast dinner. But if they can’t find the keys before the clock strikes, their meal might explode.

Saints put out the call for help in 2021

By Aiden BURGESS

THEY are the best club in AFL North Coast history.

With their ten premierships since 1997, the Sawtell/Toormina Saints are the most successful club in the 38-year history

of the AFL North Coast competition.

Now the Saints are calling on former players and members to help one of the region’s great sporting clubs.

The Saints are desperately seeking people

36 COFFS COAST NEWS OF THE AREA

within the club or extended community to assist with small roles within the committee for the 2021 season and beyond.

The Saints are looking for anyone to fill a number of vital positions; including President, Junior Vice-

President (17-25yrs), Player Welfare/Head Medical Officer, Football Operations Manager, Match Day Manager, Junior Representative at meetings, coaching roles, Assistant Coach, and Team Manager.

Anyone interested

media@newsofthearea.com.au

in helping the Saints in 2021 is urged to attend an emergency meeting at 2pm on Sunday, 17 January at the Sawtell RSL. If you can attend please contact the Saints via social media by Friday, January 15 as numbers are needed to be provided to Sawtell RSL to comply with COVID limits.

The Saints are looking

to build on a strong 2020 season in which they won the AFL North Coast under 17’s premiership and finished runners up in the senior competition.

The Saints have begun preparations for another premiership flag in 2021, with the club holding its first training session of the year this week.

Court owner and Head Coach Peter Saxby summed up the appeal of the game.

“Players were excited to get into full gear this week with a new format for singles and doubles on a Thursday night.

“With a good roll up and some interesting player combinations which either clicked as a team or showed a need for teamwork and communicating on court.

Nippers splash into 2021

By David WIGLEY

NIPPERS splashed back into action at Coffs Harbour Surf Lifesaving Club on Sunday morning and despite the rough conditions their enthusiasm could not be contained as they ran, swam and surfed the waves at Park Beach.

News Of The Area interviewed two parents to find out more about the Surf Lifesaving Nippers program.

Adelle Desir, 10, is enjoying her first year at Nippers and her mother Rachel has been blown away with Adelle’s growth in confidence and how friendly the Surf Club is.

“When you live on the coast it’s just a great idea for kids to learn how conditions

can be dangerous and Nippers has exceeded my expectations as a sport and community,” Rachel said.

“Adelle in her first season has gained so much confidence in the surf, she loves training and the range of activities. We have been so warmly welcomed by the Coffs Nippers club.

“I’m incredibly impressed by the enthusiasm and dedication from the club to ensure the kids are supported and having a great experience out there.”

Sam Carswell started Nippers at the age of four and after eight years is now competing at State and National level. His father Ian Carswell has been a volunteer throughout the journey and gave News Of The Area an

q insight into the Club and the competitions.

“We started Nippers to become water safe but over the years Sam’s enthusiasm has grown and now we go away to State and National events with the Lifesaving Club.

“There’s a great camaraderie on the road trips, I’m looking forward to the next one which is in Swansea (Belmont) at the end of February and this year we are sending 24 kids from the club.

“Because the borders are closed there aren’t any National events at the moment, so we’re focused on the NSW events.”

Building Better Regions Fund MEMBER for Cowper Pat Conaghan says round 5 of the Building Better Regions Fund (BBRF) will target tourismrelated infrastructure along with broader community infrastructure investment.

Applications for the $200 million in funding are now open.

Mr Conaghan said 2020 was a challenging year for our

community, with bushfires, drought and a global pandemic but the BBRF will help to kick-start this new year, bringing support to community driven projects at a time it is most needed.

stream and the infrastructure projects stream to enhance our community facilities, create much-needed jobs and encourage community cohesion through this time.

“Our region has already benefited from previous rounds of the BBRF with investments in projects such as the $950,000 upgrade of the Urunga Riverside SelfContained Accommodation in 2020 and the $6.5m funding for two new grandstands and improvements at the Coffs Harbour International Stadium in 2019.

“These projects were drivers of economic growth in Cowper while delivering lasting benefits to our local communities.”

The first four rounds of the BBRF were highly competitive with more than 3,200 applications received and 995 projects approved for funding, totalling just over $841.6 million.

“This is why I encourage all eligible applicants to apply for funding to ensure the lifeblood of this nation – our regions – continue building strong communities for the future,” Mr Conaghan said.

www.newsofthearea.com.au

Applications are now open and can be submitted through the online portal at www.business.gov.au/bbrf.

If potential applicants have any questions regarding eligibility or delivery of the program, they can contact the AusIndustry Business Grants Hub on 13 28 46 to discuss their individual circumstances.

Prospective applicants

are also encouraged to contact their local Regional Development Australia (RDA) committee to discuss their application.

More information including contact details for your local RDA can be found at www.rda.gov.au.

Applications close on March 5, 2021, with successful applicants expected to be announced in mid-2021.

Sydney Swans legend to host coaches workshop

q Sydney Swans legend Ryan O’Keefe will be hosting a coaches workshop in Coffs Harbour next week.

By Aiden BURGESS

SYDNEY Swans club legend Ryan O’Keefe is set to share his expertise with local coaches when he hosts a coach education workshop in Coffs Harbour next week.

The two-time premiership player is the new Coaching Development and Education Lead for AFL NSW/ACT, and will be running the Coffs Harbour session on Wednesday, 20 January from 6pm till 7.30pm at the C.ex Coffs International Stadium.

O’Keefe had a stellar career playing 286 games for the Swans which included the premiership wins in 2005 and 2012, and the Norm Smith medal as best on ground in the 2012 Grand Final.

O’Keefe was also named to the All-Australian team in 2006, and won the Bob Skilton Medal as the Swans best and fairest in 2009.

O’Keefe brings a wealth of recent coaching experience to the Coffs Harbour workshop.

He was appointed as a midfield development coach for the Adelaide Crows in 2015, before taking over the reins as the club’s South Australian National Football League (SANFL) coach in 2016.

In 2019 he was coach of the Western Jets in the NAB League – the national under 19’s competition.

If you are interested in attending the coach education workshop you can register on the AFL North Coast’s website.

O’Keefe’s former team the Sydney Swans play a pre-season match against the Collingwood Magpies on Wednesday, 3 March at the C.ex Coffs International Stadium.

By Bruce WORBOYS MID North Coast Rugby is looking forward to kicking off the 2021 season in style with the Crescent Head 7’s set down for 27 February with all Mid North Coast Clubs expected to participate.

Organised by the Kempsey Cannonballs the Crescent Head 7’s have become a traditional opener for most Clubs on the Coast and strong men’s and women’s competitions are expected again this year.

The Lower Mid North Coast competition is to commence on 24 April with a 6 Club competition with Kempsey, Port Macquarie, Hastings Valley, Bowraville, Coffs Harbour and SCU Marlins all nominating teams for the 2021 season.

A boost to the competition is the addition of the BDC Barracudas Sports Club in the Under 14 and Under 16 competitions. The Club has been formed after a number of successful seasons in the Coffs Crusaders Friday night juniors competitions.

The draw is expected to be finalised in the next few weeks and will be published by 31 January 2021.

New players are welcome and can make contact with local clubs through their Facebook sites.

By David WIGLEY

SUMMER Squash is back in full swing and the players are excited about a new format which mixes competitive singles with social doubles Coffs Harbour Squash and Swim Club in the Thursday night comp.

Players are split into two person teams and play a singles match followed by a doubles match and the points from each rubber are combined.

Former comp winner Mark Kirstein applauded the social nature of the new format.

“Finishing with doubles is great socially as it gives us a chance to catch up after the Christmas Break.”

But do things get a little crowded with four players on a squash court?

“Ha, you might think so but it’s surprising how big a squash court feels when you have to stretch down low into the front corners or dig the ball out of the back corners.

“The key to the game is keep the ball tight to the wall and in the corners, to make your opponent run!” Mark chuckled.

Club stalwart John Sambrook is a big fan of the family nature of the format.

“It’s the first time I’ve played in the same team as my son Ethan and we’ve had a good start to the competition.

“We normally play in different grades, so

Squash is back into court

q Anthony Eden and Paul Hozjan lunging at the front with Andy Proust and Dean Thomson covering the back of the court.
