BPW Scholarship Winners Announced FROM Page 1

Professor Benkendorff spoke about the challenges women face to excel in science and that perseverance and the passion to believe in yourself and to get others to believe in you is essential for success.

The Maude Spielvogel Scholarship, worth $1250, was awarded to Demi Spencer-Hirt, who is studying game design and the Wendy Martin Education Encouragement Award of $750 went to Charlotte Wilkins who is studying psychology.

Ms Spencer-Hirt said she was diagnosed with Ross River Virus just over a year ago, which, she said, felt like the start of a series of unfortunate events.

of the National Marine Science Centre at Southern Cross University, inspired the audience by talking about having a passion and believing in it.

She shared about growing up in a rural area on the outskirts of Sydney and developing a passion, from a young age, for observing nature around her.

She said that her time at the University of Wollongong, where she studied marine biology, led to her becoming a world authority in her specialisation related to marine molluscs.

She became easily exhausted as a result of her illness and, soon after, her mother had two major spinal surgeries.

At the same time, Queensland closed its borders to NSW and she was completely unable to see her family, which had her feeling very down.

Ms Spencer-Hirt said she felt very far from finishing her Certificate IV in game design late last year but was given an extension, which allowed her the time she needed to complete her final assessments.

She said, “I was very fortunate to have had so much support from my teachers and felt that they believed in my ability.”

Ms Spencer-Hirt said that she hopes to continue with her studies to complete a bachelor degree.

‘Ball Against DV’ comp 16,000 copies postponed will benefit Warrina Domestic and Family Violence Specialist Services and will be a 3x3 Street Hustle basketball competition featuring two Open Mixed Divisions.

Coffs Harbour Jetty safe in the hands of heritage Don Harwin, the State Heritage Register for said the Jetty once formed FROM Page 1

THE JETTY at Coffs Harbour has been listed by The NSW Government on the State Heritage Register.

This means that the Jetty has been recognised as having particular significance to the people of NSW and enriches an understanding of history among the community.

With her home overlooking the harbour, Val Browning, a past Citizen of the Year, Coffs Harbour Quota Woman of the Year and a local legend in volunteering, has a view of

q

the Jetty “all day, every day”.

“The Jetty has always been a passion of mine and I am very pleased it now has Heritage listing; a few of the fishermen’s cottages down there (Jetty Foreshores) had not been Heritage listed and they’ve been knocked down.

“Our Quota Club has donated a few thousand dollars to its restoration in the past.

“I hope that as Council progresses with the beautification of the Jetty area that they don’t put up a huge commercial development,” said Val. Minister responsible

part of an extensive coastal network of infrastructure that supported the transportation of goods and people along the state’s coast.

“On the beautiful North Coast of NSW, the Coffs Harbour Jetty was the longest coastal timber jetty in the late 19th century during a key period of shipping transportation in NSW,” said Mr Harwin.

Thomas L Lawson’s building firm won the job of constructing the Jetty in 1890 and building is said to have finished in 1893.

Harbour, Gurmesh Singh said, “The Coffs Harbour Jetty is a reminder of Coffs Harbour’s shipping and maritime history.”

The Jetty was nominated

by Coffs Harbour City Council who are responsible for maintaining the structure.

The listing provides protection for the Jetty under the Heritage Act 1977.

“Any change or development to the Jetty must now be undertaken in consultation with the Heritage Council of NSW to ensure its heritage significance is conserved,” a Heritage NSW spokesperson told News Of The Area.

Affordable housing debate continues at Council

By Emma DARBIN THE waiving of fees on the use of public facilities and the development of a policy and direction for affordable housing in the region will be investigated by Coffs Harbour City Council.

Much debate ensued over these two issues at Council’s meeting on Thursday 24 June, while councillors were discussing the adoption of Council’s 2017-2022 Delivery Program (Year 5), 2021/22 Operational Plan, 2021/22 Delivery Program Budgets, and 2021/22 Fees and Charges.

On the use of public facilities, Keelan Birch spoke on behalf of Coffs Harbour Parkrun at the Council meeting and called on Council to consider changing how Parkrun’s annual $520 licence fee for the use of Park Beach Reserve is waived.

The fee is currently

waived each year through Council’s Donations Program.

“Coffs Harbour Parkrun is a free community event; it’s put on for the community by the community with no charge to those participating and has been occurring at Park Beach Reserve for four years now,” Mr Birch said.

“No participant is charged for the event.”

Mr Birch asked for the Parkrun event to be considered as “no charge”.

“If fees are charged our community event can not occur,” Mr Birch said.

“We’re a weekly not for profit community focused event for anyone who’s able to participate.”

On the issue of housing affordability, Cr Sally Townley moved an alternate recommendation at the meeting that Council add $100,000 to the 2021/22 Budget to develop a policy and direction for affordable housing.

“Not that long ago we voted unanimously to agree in principle that local government does have a role to play in affordable and social housing,” Cr Townley stated.

“If we are serious about it we need to resource it.”

Councillors unanimously resolved on 13 May for Council to recognise that local government can play a role in the provision of affordable housing and/or social housing, and for Council to review case studies of other Local Government Areas who have made effective advancements in social and/ or affordable housing.

Cr Keith Rhoades then moved an amendment for a report to be presented to Council to look at the possibility of waiving fees on the use of public facilities, and for a report to be presented to Council on a budget allocation to develop a policy and direction for affordable housing.

“It’s about having the information in front of you to make an informed decision,” Cr Rhoades stated at the meeting.

MUMS BUBS a n d

However, Cr Paul Amos disagreed with the need for further reports on affordable housing.

“My recommendation is that we have already unanimously resolved to do something about the affordable housing issue,” Cr Amos said.

“Rather than asking for another report, we should be a bit more decisive and move forward with a proposal rather than just delaying.

“As long as we just get reports coming back we will not move forward.”

Cr Amos questioned how much it would cost for a report to come back to Council on the matter and whether Council could spend its money on this issue “in a better way”.

He also reaffirmed his belief that the local affordable housing problem was “really a State Government issue”.

that we will get this right.”

After more than half an hour of debate, Cr Rhoades’ amendment was unanimously approved by all councillors present at the meeting.

Council will now adopt its 2017-2022 Delivery Program (Year 5), 2021/22 Operational Plan, 2021/22 Delivery Program Budgets and 2021/22 Fees and Charges, request a report from Council to look at addressing the waiving of fees on the use of public facilities, and request a report from Council on a budget allocation to resource the development of a policy and direction for affordable housing.

The adopted Council documents will be implemented from 1 July and posted on Council’s website by 30 June.

“We can do our own bits and pieces amongst that,” Cr Amos said.

“We can approve affordable housing that comes before this Chamber, if it meets all the requirements.

“In the past we’ve probably not been as diligent there as we could be, in my eyes.”

Cr Michael Adendorff agreed with Cr Rhoades that a further Council report on the affordable housing issue was needed.

“We do need a report, otherwise we are just picking a figure,” Cr Adendorff said.

“It is pretty important that we get it right.”

Cr John Arkan also agreed that councillors needed another Council report.

“We need to have the report come back, it’s a serious matter of affordable housing,” Cr Arkan said.

Johno looks for solutions to Coffs’ dumping issue

By Andrea FERRARI

DUMPING is an issue on the Coffs Coast; an issue that is pushing the patience of local fisho and amateur landscape photographer, Johno to frustration.

Standing by the open tailgate of his vehicle, displaying seven needles, Johno told News Of The Area, “I’ve just picked these needles up from behind the goal posts of the footy pitch here at Rex Hardaker Oval near Toormina.

“The needles were uncapped but I found the caps

and put them on them.

“Everywhere I find a dump there’s needles…heaps of them.”

Johno observed the dumping situation got worse when Coffs Council cancelled its twice-yearly free curbside collection, and began limiting Bulky Goods vouchers to two per household per year.

“You have to pay and it’s quite expensive,” said Johno.

The Council quotes $16 for a load of 40 kilograms or less; and $306 per tonne.

Alarmed at the amount of rubbish “everywhere” he said,

q Johno has been told by Coffs Council to put the dumped goods he finds by a bin and they’ll collect it – this site has been like this for a week.

Johno posted on Facebook that if anyone sees an illegal dump close to a waterway, he would sort it out.

“I got heaps of messages, from Valla Beach to Wooli.

“There was a guy at Woolgoolga who found a dump at the back of Woolgoolga beach, he came down and gave me a hand to finish it off.

“When people see furniture dumped or a pile of rubbish, they add to it.”

Johno has approached Council who have said they want to help “but apparently, they can’t”.

COFFS COASTNews COASTNews Of The Area

“Now I’ve been told to collect the rubbish and leave it near a garbage bin and they’ll pick it up, which means double handling and there’s nothing to stop the brush turkeys and ibis pulling at it and messing it up again.

“This dump is by the kids’ footy ground and rubbish goes all the way down to Boambee Creek and ends up in the ocean.

“This joint (the Coffs Coast) is tourism central because of the ocean.”

Johno decided he’d ring Gurmesh Singh, Member for Coffs to see what solution he might be able to come up with.

A meeting is booked for Friday July 2. q Discarded fast food wrappings are a common sight on Coffs Coast streets and parks.

q Seven used, dirty needles picked up in a few minutes out the back of the footy goals at Rex Hardaker Oval, Toormina.

Digital Student Learner Profile to be developed by NSW Government

By Emma DARBIN

A DIGITAL ‘Education Passport’ for students is being developed by the NSW Government to compile students academic, sporting and extra-curricular achievements to ease and verify the job and tertiary education application process.

The digital learner profile will allow students to store and share the verified story of their academic and personal achievements at school in one digital place.

NSW Education Minister Sarah Mitchell said the digital learner profile would create continuity and ease for students to record their valuable learning experiences while at school.

“We know our students are more than the sum of their exam results and they want a reliable way to display all their experiences and achievements,” Ms Mitchell said.

“I am inviting students and schools to be part of the design process, so that we can help them open doors to further study and employment.”

Customer Services Minister Victor Dominello said the learner profile formed part of a big vision for the establishment of a NSW education passport.

“An education passport would provide a digital record of a student’s achievements and accomplishments throughout their school journey, which can be shared with future employers, licensing authorities and

tertiary institutions,” Mr Dominello said.

“Students graduating from NSW high schools in 2021 and beyond face a rapidly changing labour market, with a growing emphasis on digital skills and micro-credentials.

“Establishing a universal, digital record of educational attainment would assist students, career advisers and employers through a more efficient matching

of skills to employment opportunities.”

The new NSW Student Learner Profile will be a young person’s passport to future education and employment.

It will let school students keep and share a verified record of all their capabilities and achievements in one place such as HSC results and ATAR, vocational education and training (VET) competencies, extracurricular and sporting achievements, work experience, volunteering, caring responsibilities and hobbies.

may be able to share their digital Learner Profile with potential employers or when applying for further education and training.

The profile is aimed to show the full breadth of a student’s experience and capabilities beyond formal assessment results.

Dune Conundrum

By Sandra MOON LOCAL community member and volunteer surf life saver, Steven Kitching, believes a man-made sand dune at Park Beach is placing people’s lives at risk and is calling for its relocation, but the solution is not an easy one.

Mr Kitching spoke with News of The Area about his concerns.

“Sand dredged from the Jetty Marina was placed on the sand dunes in front of the Park Beach Surf Life Saving Club over a year ago.

“This was done despite suggestions to put the sand further up the beach away from the most used area of Park Beach,” he said.

Mr Kitching said it has been a safety concern for a long time.

According to Mr Kitching the state-funded viewing platform in front of the Surf Club no longer affords the views of the beach and water that it previously offered and the lifeguards employed by the council have also stated that it impedes their view from the tower as well.

“This is a Council and volunteer lifeguard patrolled

beach and during the surf club season it is overrun with people of all ages using the beach.

“The excess sand placed here inhibits the lifeguard's view of the water and is a serious safety issue.”

The views are just one of three safety concerns raised

by Mr Kitching.

The dune location means that there is no longer adequate space in some locations to place patrol flags effectively meaning that sometimes the positions were compromised.

The third safety concern is around the dunes and access to them by children who love to jump off them.

Despite signs stating ‘Facilities Closed’ to ward off the public Mt Kitching said this hasn't stopped children jumping off them and with stakes placed below the dunes he fears this is a disaster waiting to happen.

“The stakes are there on the beach under the dune.

“Kids love jumping off them and despite the stakes down on the bottom the kids look at dunes and say ‘wow this is cool'.”

Coffs Harbour City Council described the situation as complex and not easily solved

but one that is definitely being worked on.

In October 2019 Crown Land undertook a dredging program to open up access from the inner to outer harbour and about thirty thousand cubic metres of sand was placed on Crown Land at Park Beach by sub contractor Dredging Solutions as part of a project sponsored by Crown Land and the materials were placed in accordance with the Review of Environmental Factors that needed coapproval by Marine Parks.

Council explained to News Of The Area the current two metre escarpment was not placed there by the company but was wind borne sand pushed up the embankment onto the crest by unusual North Easterly winds.

Council negotiated with Crown Land to get the company back to do some sand shaping at Crown Land’s cost.

The company returned and pushed the sand back into the high tide mark and spent a week doing that in early 2020.

The wind blew it back again and so between the original placing of the sand and now, vegetation on the western side has completely covered the sand dune.

q The stakes placed around the dune are capped but could still pose a danger to children ignoring the “Facilities Closed” signs.

q Steven Kitchingstands, who stands at 187 centimetres tall, is against the dunes obscuring vision and impeding patrol flag positions.

Council was approached again regarding the heights and the views from the Surf Club and existing tower.

They then went back to Crown Land late last year with the assistance of Council Director Mick Raby who approached Crown Lands and Marine Infrastructure Development Office (MIDOformerly Marine Parks).

Crown Land Northern Regions supported reducing the berm height, the build up of unwanted material, and they assisted in having MIDO come to the party and fund council to solve the issue.

In early May Council

proposed water cannoning to blast underneath the berm with ocean water.

This was the preferred method as it didn’t damage the vegetation.

But the plan was unable to go ahead because the foredune required for using the water cannon was eroded later in May. So the Council is trying to find another way to lower the height and save the vegetation so the remaining sand doesn’t become wind borne again.

Any new erosion means there is nothing to protect the Surf Club.

Council explained that

surf life savers can walk out of the tower and can get on the beach with their vehicles to get line of sight.

Council stated the stakes at the base of the dunes that Mr Kitching is concerned about have caps on them.

Council further commented that if we hadn’t had the sand there we would be in a situation like Byron Bay which is suffering great erosion on Main Beach.

When the sand is typically washed into the beaches later on in the year there will be more opportunities for Council to propose other solutions.

Local Health District Awards

By Andrea FERRARI

AFTER hosting a ‘virtual’ event across two sites last year, the Mid North Coast Local Health District (MNCLHD) staged its annual Health Innovation Awards at an evening event in Coffs Harbour in mid-June.

MNCLHD Chief Executive Stewart Dowrick told News Of The Area the annual Health Innovation Awards recognise

innovation and excellence in the delivery of health programs and services to the Mid North Coast communities who use the public health system.

“This year’s awards again showcased innovative ways our dedicated healthcare team and individual workers support better health outcomes for the people of our region,” he said.

Awards were presented

in nine team and three individual categories including: Excellence in the Provision of Mental Health Services, Health Research and Innovation, Keeping People Healthy, Patient Safety First, People and Culture, Transforming Patient Experience, Close the Gap Award, Governing Board Chair’s Award and the Agency for Clinical Innovation’s (ACI) Innovation Award.

Individual awards winners were Coffs Harbourbased Mark Wilson who was named the Collaborative Leader of the Year, Dorrigo’s Lucinda Parker who took out the Staff Member of the Year Award and Helen Mears whose decades of commitment to the Coffs branch of the United Hospital Auxiliaries of NSW earned her the Volunteer of the Year award.

www.newsofthearea.com.au

Other local programs taking home trophies included the Voice Project, an innovative eight-week program which aims to improve voice-related quality of life for people with Parkinson’s Disease.

The online delivery of the program enabled participants to continue to exercise their voices while self-isolating during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The CARE Collaborative is a project initiated by staff from the Coffs Harbour Health Campus and is designed to provide opportunities for all staff to participate in easily accessible activities such as trivia quizzes and fun events as well as weekly meditation and wellbeing sessions.

Unable to meet face-toface last year, the 2020 award winners were recognised with rousing applause on the night and the opportunity to present awards in the category for which they were honoured.

Environmental Levy-Funded Projects SEARCHES for some of the Coffs Coast’s best-known but shy wildlife using water-borne DNA and Dog Detectives are among the 18 projects that will share a total of $366,149 from Council’s Environmental Levy (EL) funds for 2021/2022.

The Jaliigirr Biodiversity Alliance was successful in gaining funding for its ‘Surveying Platypus Populations in the Orara Valley Using eDNA Technology’ project which will use innovative science and citizen scientists to investigate the impacts of bushfires and other threats on platypus populations in the Orara Valley.

Using pre-fire data, around 30 sites will be studied through water sampling to search for platypus DNA in local waterways to help establish the status of the local platypus population.

The Alliance is also behind a plan to use specially trained Canine Scent Detectives to find koala scats for future genetic analysis in the SawtellToormina-Boambee area.

The project will undertake a detailed survey of koala activity in an area known to support an important, but fragmented koala population.

The resulting DNA profiling and population analysis can then be used to establish the comparative

health and genetic diversity of these populations.

Other successful organisations included the Sandy Beach Action Group, Coffs Harbour and District Local Aboriginal Land Council, Nana Glen Landcare Group, Woolgoolga Lake Working Group, Southern Cross University, Coffs Harbour Regional Landcare, Envite, University of New England and Jetty Dunecare.

Council introduced the Environmental Levy (EL) as a means of encouraging local residents and organisations to undertake environmental management and improvement works.

The levy currently raises

around $1.3 million a year at an average cost of $44 per ratepayer, of which approximately $300,000 is available to community groups.

“As always it’s fantastic to see a hugely diverse range of projects being put forward by groups that are passionate about their work and our environment,” said Coffs Harbour Mayor Councillor Denise Knight.

“Some of the key management objectives outlined in the CMP include improving and maintaining water quality, improving community facilities and amenity, preserving and protecting natural and cultural heritage and supporting the ongoing use of the estuary as an educational resource and for research.”

A series of actions and a program for implementation over the next 10 years is included in the Program. It outlines prioritised management actions which aim to achieve ecologically sustainable development for the social, cultural and economic well-being of the people in the catchment area and state.

A long list of management options was initially developed, and then refined to a shortlist of actions post stakeholder and community consultation.

Some of the key management considerations include: ● Estuary Entrance Behaviour Investigation; ● Community Education Program;

The primary purpose

CHH

of the Program is to set out the long-term strategy for coordinated management of the Estuary to meet local community needs in the short term and identify risks in the longer term.

“This is an important estuarine system that has many regular users and plays a key part in the life of the Sawtell and wider Coffs Harbour communities,” said Sally Whitelaw, Council’s Team

● Community Conservation and Restoration Programs; ● Coastal Inundation Monitoring; ● Climate Change Adaptation; ● Bank Stability Projects; ● Condition Assessment of Coastal Protection Works; ● EcoHealth Monitoring Program; ● Stormwater Management Assets; and ● Environmental Protection Works, among others.

Once the CMP is adopted and certified by the State Government, Council will be able to seek funds for the management actions to be implemented from the NSW Government’s Coast and Estuary Grants Program.

New Australian comedy comes to the Jetty Theatre A BRAND new Australian comedy titled ‘In Bed with the Bishops’ is about to open for a limited season at the Jetty Memorial Theatre (JMT).

Produced by CHATS Productions Inc, this play has only been seen on stage three times before, most recently in Armidale.

Written by Professor of Psychiatry at Monash Uni Rob Selzer, this fastpaced comedy features four players and switches from the present to the past and back again.

Betty and Barry Bishop

are a quintessential power couple.

He works as a senior broker in the family stock broking business, and she has a popular and influential lifestyle TV show called ‘Betty Perfect’ which has a huge following.

Everything in their life is ‘perfect’, and now Betty has decided they need a baby to make it all complete.

The problem is, they can’t seem to conceive, and Betty’s physician has referred them to Dr Jack Glass, a psychiatrist specialising in couples

counselling.

The story unfolds as Jack talks to Zelda, his very experienced professional supervisor, about how his interactions with the Bishops over time have led to a very sticky situation.

The play uses flashback scenes of Jack working with the Bishops to tell the tale, and as Jack relates the details to Zelda, we come to the present day, and then things get complicated.

President of CHATS Mr Rex Madigan said, “This show fulfils our commitment to present

Australian content as part of our annual line up, and being able to work on a play that was written in the last couple of years is a great chance to highlight how vibrant Australian theatre is, even with pandemic restrictions.”

The play will open on Friday 9 July and continue until Sunday 18, for more information and tickets go to https://www. jettytheatre.com/in-bedwith-the-bishops/ or visit the box office Tuesday through to Friday 12 noon to 4pm, and Dine and Discover vouchers can be redeemed at the theatre box office only.

Local finds fault with BoM figures Have you ever seen Coffs Harbour’s maximum temperature on the television weather segments and thought “It didn’t seem that hot”?

By David TUNE

HAVE you ever seen Coffs Harbour’s maximum temperature on the television weather segments and thought “It didn’t seem

that hot”?

You could be right.

Local resident Graham Meale often thinks so, prompting him to delve deeply into the Bureau of Meteorology’s (BoM) recent

q Evidence of the incorrect figures on the BoM. Photo:supplied.

records where he found that there have been erroneous readings on a dozen or more days in the last six weeks, due to a malfunctioning sensor at the automatic weather station at the airport.

Graham said that, “The sensor has sporadically caused the reported maximum temperature to be two or three degrees too high each time.”

Graham contacted the BoM early in June, and after about a week they worked through their records, deleting seven of Coffs Harbour’s recorded maximum temperatures and altering several others.

But as of at least June 27, it appeared that the faulty sensor had still not been replaced, as the problem recurred on that day.

Graham said, “I am surprised that these errors have not been picked up by software, so that at the very least the temperatures on the television would be blanked out.”

He believes that if the climate change deniers in

our midst are ever to be convinced, public faith in the BoM needs to be as high as possible.

Decades ago, the BoM operated a staffed office in Coffs, and perhaps faults were noticed and rectified more quickly, but apparently these days it is all remotely controlled from Melbourne.

“That’s progress for you,” said Graham.

SV Mystic sets sail for Legacy veterans

SV MYSTIC was officially launched in Coffs Marina by the Newcastle Permanent Charitable Foundation, whose grant funded the refit work required for its new purpose.

The 50-foot sailing boat is officially supported

by Legacy for the express purpose of taking Coffs Coast veterans and their families out to sea, skippered by Tex O’Grady, a submarine veteran of the Australian Navy.

Tex, who has put his heart and soul into turning his dream into a reality, told News Of The Area, “I’m most proud of the fact that it’s come to fruition – I feel quite emotional.”

Jennifer Lesley, Chair, Newcastle Permanent Building Society addressed veterans in attendance at the launch.

Regional COVID restrictions enforced

By Emma DARBIN

FOR the first time since the COVID-19 outbreak, the wearing of face masks has become mandatory at all indoor non-residential venues in regional areas of NSW. The current Public Health Orders came into force on Saturday 26 June and will stay in place for two weeks until Saturday 10 July.

Under these new regulations: ● Up to five visitors may visit another household at any one time (including children) ● A 20-person limit applies to classes or activities at a gym, and at dance and yoga classes and participants must wear a face mask ● Singing by audiences at indoor shows or by congregants at indoor places of worship is not allowed ● Dancing is not allowed at a hospitality venue or nightclub including casinos, food and drink premises, micro-breweries, small bars, pubs and clubs ● You must be seated when consuming alcohol in an indoor area of a nonresidential premises in NSW (restaurants, pubs and clubs,

nightclubs, stadiums) ● Dancing is allowed at weddings for the bridal party only (no more than 20 people) ● Funerals are permitted provided there are not more than 100 people present ● Theatres, cinemas, and music and concert halls can only hold a maximum of 50% of the seating capacity and face masks must be worn at these venues and when attending outdoor seated events ● At stadiums, showgrounds, theme parks, racecourses and motor racing tracks the maximum number of people at these venues is limited to 50% of the seating capacity and face masks must be worn ● Up to five people may stay in a holiday home or holiday rental (unless those people are from the same household) The wearing of face masks is also now mandatory in all non-residential indoor venues in the Queensland local government areas of Noosa, Sunshine Coast, Ipswich, Logan, Redlands, Morton, Brisbane, Gold Coast, the Scenic Rim, Lockyer Valley, and Somerset until

Monday 12 July.

NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian held a press conference on Monday and spoke in particular about the new regional COVID-19 restrictions placed on NSW residents and businesses.

“Even though you may not have a case in your community, the restrictions are there to make that continue,” the Premier stated.

Ms Berejiklian said, “If everybody does the right thing” there’s no reason why the current Public Health Order should last more than the two weeks currently specified.

“The best advice we get (from NSW Health) is the best advice we can convey to the community, and that is two weeks,” she said.

Woolgoolga’s Bluebottles Brasserie owner Dan Weiss said the business is being severely affected by the new restrictions due to the reinforcement of the one person per four square metre rule.

“We’ve gone back to using only 25 percent of our floor space, so that’s difficult in itself,” Dan said of the new restrictions.

“That will eliminate all my inside dining because given

the square meterage of that I’m only allowed 8 people in there and that includes staff, which is pointless.”

Since the restrictions came into force on Saturday Dan has had to remove all of the business’s inside dining tables and chairs, with diners now only able to dine outdoors.

“If the weather’s inclement then I’m sailing a different boat with half an oar, so that’s trouble,” Dan stated.

“The impact on the floor space is my main concern, but we just have to grit our teeth and get on with it.”

The NSW Government announced a financial relief package for small businesses

“We’re currently developing a Public Realm Strategy for the whole Coffs Harbour local government area,” Council’s Section Leader Local Planning Sharon Smith said.

“What we mean by public realm is all public land that the community uses all the time.

“We’re talking about parks, sports fields, creeks, reserves, walking tracks and paths, streets and any public

space that people either use for recreation, exercise or to get from A to B.” Ms Smith said the aim of the Strategy is to create a connected network of open spaces and streets throughout the whole council area to provide better access and connections to our environments and to strengthen our ties to nature.

To help Council get a clear understanding of how the community moves around

and uses our public places Council is asking people to complete a quick survey and/or add a pin to highlight their favourite places on an interactive map.

The Public Realm Strategy surveys and interactive map can be accessed at Council’s Have Your Say page on its website at https:// haveyoursay.coffsharbour. nsw.gov.au/public-realmstrategy, or community members can come along to

Being Outdoors Benefits Learning

By Andrew VIVIAN

MANY teachers and schools have known for a long time that learning outdoors has a range of benefits for nearly every child.

A recent University of South Australia study has found growing evidence that taking the classroom outdoors may improve physical activity, learning,

mental health and wellbeing, engagement in class and social skills.

Doctoral candidate, Nicole Miller, and her colleagues, have summarised 20 studies of nature-based learning from across the globe over the past 18 years.

Ms Miller said, “The evidence suggests that taking the classroom

outdoors could be a great way to include more incidental physical activities into a child’s day.”

The link between learning in nature and lower obesity rates is not new, but it is significant because only 19 per cent of Australian children are meeting the World Health Organization’s recommended levels of 60 minutes of moderate

q Learning outdoors has a wide range of benefits for children. Photo: supplied.

Rescue Tubes to be Rolled Out SURF rescue tubes that members of the public can use in an emergency are to be rolled out at ten local beaches over the next 12 months in the first stage of a three-year program to install them at 37 locations along our coastline following a successful trial.

Rescue tubes are specially designed flotation devices, normally used by lifeguards or lifesavers to assist in water rescues, that can help support the victim’s and rescuer’s weight to make a rescue easier.

“With most drownings occurring either outside patrolled areas or outside patrol times, it was vital that we looked at all options when looking for ways to prevent more deaths,” said Greg Hackfath, Council’s Lifeguard Services Team Leader.

“It’s also an unfortunate fact that ‘bystander’ rescuers can often be among the fatalities in a drowning incident, so providing a flotation device they can easily access is extremely important.”

With the assistance and cooperation of the project partner Sawtell Surf Life Saving Club, Council’s Lifeguards undertook a trial of the tubes at Sawtell Beach over five months that included the 2019-2020 surf season.

“The trial was evaluated through a survey of local and visitor beach-users, a post-trial workshop and face-to-face interviews with key participants and found to have been very successful in terms of developing community confidence,” said Enzo Accadia, Council’s

Section Leader Community Programs.

“In the past four years since July 2016, 11 people have drowned at beaches within the Coffs Harbour local government area.

“While none of these tragedies happened between the flags at a patrolled beach they highlight the need to provide rescue equipment at as many locations as we are feasibly able.”

A list of ten priority beaches has been drawn up to receive rescue tubes over the coming financial year, if funding becomes available.

They are Corindi Beach (Darlington/Lorikeet), Emerald Beach, Murrays Beach/Boambee Headland, Fiddamans Beach, Campbells Beach – (North) Riecks Point, Diggers Beach, Moonee Beach North (Shelleys), Red Rock, Woolgoolga Beach, and Moonee Beach South.

The total cost of completing the three-year

exercise a day.

Ms Miller said, “Globally, the figures are even worse, with a recent study of 12 countries showing that just 4.8 per cent of children aged between 5-19 years are doing moderate to vigorous exercise for an hour each day.”

Nature-based learning can range from holding normal classes outdoors, to more strenuous activities such as constructing shelters, and group games.

Apart from the physical benefits, the evidence suggests that nature-based learning is more enjoyable and hands-on than in a traditional classroom, so children may be more likely to retain their understanding and stay focused throughout the lesson.

Learning about the environment while in nature is an obvious benefit, but the researchers also referenced studies showing the mental health benefits in adults who had spent significant time in nature in their childhood.

“Previous research has found links that suggest adults with a low exposure to nature in childhood had significantly poorer mental health and a greater risk of psychiatric disorders,” Ms Miller said.

Elsbeth Haenggi, the Principal of the Casuarina Steiner School in Coffs Harbour, supports the findings of the study.

She told News Of The Area that learning outdoors is a consciously-planned cornerstone of the school curriculum.

Ms Haenggi said the school has two school gardens, one for younger children and one for upper primary, which are regularly used for lessons.

The school integrates its subjects and Ms Haenggi said that its bush-type setting and adjacent Crown Land provides plants and habitat for smaller animals for children to observe and study.

The school also runs camps, mainly set outdoors, that are tailored to what each class is learning.

For example, grade 3 usually have a farming camp, while grade 5 go to a Gibraltar Ranges bush camp.

Grade 6 head west to Coonabarabran for their camp to study geology and astronomy.

Apart from the social aspects of being in a group to pitch a tent and cook meals, being in nature provides multi-sensory learning of such things as how to make a fire or indigenous perspectives and leads to children following up their own open-ended inquiries and being much more engaged in school.

Ms Haenggi said that learning outdoors benefits academic learning (graduates have performed very well in secondary school) and teamwork, collaboration and selfdirected learning also helps social and emotional wellbeing.

“Learning in nature encourages curiosity, which is at the heart of learning,” she said.

program is estimated to be $100,000.

“Council has been very generously provided with an initial $20,000 grant for the initial roll-out that was successfully applied for by the Rotary Club of Coffs Harbour and they have also indicated that members with businesses may be

interested in also sponsoring some rescue tubes,” added Mr Accadia.

“The grant from the Rotary Club is for the Cowper electorate only, but there is strong community and tourist industry interest in this project and we’re hopeful that this will translate into positive

external support through further grants, donations and sponsorship for the beaches outside the Cowper boundaries.

“We’re also going to work with the other bodies that manage some of our local beaches to introduce rescue tubes at those places too as part of this same strategy.”

New Police podcast to protect kids from predators THE Australian Federal Police (AFP) has released a new podcast about online child sexual exploitation which brings some hard-to-tell stories out from the shadows and into the public consciousness in order to help prevent this horrendous crime.

The Australian Federal Police-led Australian Centre to Counter Child Exploitation (ACCCE) podcast explores the scale of the issue, victim experiences, the psychology behind offender behaviour, advocacy, prevention and government intervention.

In an AFP first, this podcast provides the Australian community with behindthe-scenes access to the men and women who work tirelessly to end the exploitation of children.

AFP Commissioner Reece P Kershaw recently launched the series alongside Minister for Home Affairs Karen Andrews and father and Australian actor Rodger Corser.

"Although some listeners may find parts of the content confronting, these are stories that need to be told," Commissioner Kershaw said.

"The issues raised throughout the series need to be acknowledged and talked about by the Australian community.”

Last year, the ACCCE received more than 21,000 reports of online child sexual exploitation.

“It's important that we raise awareness about this crime type and normalise discussion," Commissioner Kershaw said.

The series provides listeners with an understanding of what constitutes online exploitation and just how easily children can be targeted by anyone, from anywhere.

Episodes will give parents, guardians and carers tips and advice on how to protect kids online, as well as how to identify and report offensive online behaviour.

"We hope this podcast gives listeners the tools to equip them to educate themselves and others, speak up and report online child sexual exploitation – help us put an end to this crime type,” Commissioner Kershaw said.

'Closing The Net' is available now from the ACCCE website at http://www.accce. gov.au/closingthenet and all major podcast platforms.

If you know of a child that is being contacted inappropriately or groomed by an adult online, or have been affected by online child sexual exploitation visit the ACCCE website for advice and support at http://www.accce.gov.au/.

Concept Plan for the Community Hub and Active Youth Space at Sandy Beach Reserve THE community is invited to comment on the draft concept plan for the Sandy Beach Reserve Community Hub and Active Youth Space, one of the key components of the Sandy Beach Reserve Masterplan developed with the community in 2017.

Sandy Beach Reserve forms part of the Coffs Coast Regional Park.

The Regional Park is managed by Coffs Harbour City Council and the National Parks and Wildlife Service, under the guidance of the Coffs Coast Regional Park Trust Board, which is appointed by the NSW Government.

Chairman of the Coffs Coast Regional Park Trust Board, Rod McKelvey, said the concept plan had been developed in response to community input on priorities for a new playground, skate park, multi-purpose court, picnic facilities, shelters, connecting pathways and new car park.

“The Trust Board has allocated $900,000 for design and construction of the Community Hub and

Active Youth Space, with funding provided by the NSW Government, Council and the Coffs Coast Regional Park,” Mr McKelvey said.

“The concept plan responds to community input we have received during the first stages of consultations, including preferences for play equipment, a multipurpose court and a flowtype skate plaza design.

“We are also investigating costs and options for CCTV and car parking, to be provided in the future as funding becomes available.

“Community priorities and expectations were identified in 2017 when developing the overall Masterplan for Sandy Beach Reserve.

“We began working with the community and key stakeholders in March and April this year to prepare a detailed concept plan for the Community Hub and Active Youth Space.

“As a result of these consultations, the proposed concept plan provides a diverse range of active and passive recreational

opportunities, maximises security and community safety, and achieves the broader community needs and aspirations for the Reserve as presented in the overall Masterplan.”

The $900,000 project is financed by the Coffs Coast Regional Park for $250,000, a NSW Government Stronger Country Communities Fund grant of $150,000, a NSW

Government Anyone Can Play grant of $300,000, with the Council funding $200,000.

Coffs Coast Regional Park covers 562 hectares.

The park includes 27 kilometres of coastline and the Solitary Islands Marine Park adjoins the entire length of the park.

SCU’s COVID Hiatus Broken

By Sandra MOON

ONGOING and emerging COVID safety measures have affected the university sector and Southern Cross University has been responding with careful consideration.

This has included the announcement to welcome international students back on campus, the recent return to graduation ceremonies as per usual and this week returning to online learning till July.

It has been two years since the last graduation event so the honoured guests, lecturers and graduates themselves were pleased to be able to attend one of the largest graduations last week on Saturday June 26.

One thousand two hundred graduates attended and celebrated the achievements of close to three hundred graduates who received awards across three ceremonies.

Among them was Gurpreet Singh who was awarded a University Medal recognising his high academic achievement of First Class Honours graduating in a

to measure their core body temperature with an accuracy to within one-tenth of a degree Celsius.

One of the project’s findings was that while the synthetic grass surface did not elicit any physiological changes to the athletes in cloudy conditions compared to the natural grass field, air temperatures above the synthetic surface were higher than the natural grass field, which may be exacerbated in hot conditions.

“Achieving First Class Honours is unexpected yet exciting.

“I was never an academic student during high school,” Mr Singh said.

“But having good support at Southern Cross University, particularly my supervisor Dr Chris Stevens who has guided and mentored me on how to go about research in general, that’s really helped.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my degree.”

On the announcement of the state government’s plan for the return of international students Mr Ben Roche, Vice President (Engagement) at Southern Cross University told News of The Area, “We would welcome their return at the earliest safe moment.

“We, of course, still have significant numbers of onshore International students completing their degrees and will continue to support them and our growing domestic student population with the very best university education to equip them for meaningful careers after graduating,” he said.

The return to delivering onshore to international students is still some time off however.

“We also acknowledge this work is at an early stage and requires a range of approvals yet to be secured,” Mr Roche said.

“Striking the balance between health considerations, the repatriation of Australian citizens and the impact of the loss of international students is the key outcome we all seek.”

And the juggling of the

uncertainty of the recent emerging Greater Sydney COVID-19 cluster has this week seen the university make the decision to return to work from home and online learning while keeping the libraries and student hubs open in a reduced capacity.

At this stage the University expects normal activity to resume on Monday 12 July, subject to NSW Health Department advice at the time.

“Since COVID-19 first appeared last year, the University has always put the safety of our students and staff as the highest priority,” said Mr Allan Morris, Vice President (Operations).

“With that in mind, and given the escalating situation with COVID in NSW and QLD, the university has decided to revert to a ‘study/work from home’ environment for students and staff at the Lismore, Coffs Harbour and Gold Coast campuses, with attendance on campus limited to essential activity only.

Mr Morris said, “We appreciate the flexibility of students and staff as we respond to this situation.

“Please take care and always follow the relevant state health department advice.”

Housing Action Group Pose Hosting Solution

By Sandra MOON

WITH Bellingen Shire Council recently declaring a housing crisis in the shire, local community members in the Bellingen’s Housing Matters Action Group (HMAG) are actively working to solve the problem.

HMAG is launching a hosting and lodging initiative partnering with flatmate.com.

The Community Hosting project will have homeowners with a spare room take in lodgers.

This could also help homeowners who could use some extra income, help around the house or who would welcome some company.

Hosts and lodgers will be supported by the Housing Matters Hub to register on flatmate.com and look for a suitable match, based

on things like age, gender, interests and location.

Police checks will be mandatory for all participants.

The Hub will support both hosts and lodgers during an initial 3-month trial which is long enough for both parties to be confident that they are a good match.

Once the Community Hosting Program has been piloted it could be rolled out by other communities.

Chair of the Housing Matters Action Group Kerry Pearse explained, “We have a regional housing crisis and it’s getting worse.

“Rents have skyrocketed and there are very few houses available for rent.

“The cost of real estate has also increased significantly.

“People have been leaving the Bellingen Shire because they can’t find anywhere to

live locally and others who want to return home just can’t.”

“This is evident in many Bellingen Facebook groups where people share posts looking for places to live be they returning to the town where they grew up or are looking to move into the area.

“At the same time, there are people across the Shire who live in large houses and want to downsize but can’t because there are so few smaller dwellings available.

“Some of these people have said that they would welcome a lodger and benefit from extra income or help around the house.”

John Stericker of flatmate. com said, “The flatmate.com team is proud to work with Housing Matters in Bellingen to support this important community initiative.

“We are providing the

q Members of the Housing Matters Action Group Dorin, Vanessa and Vicki. platform to allow members of the community to register their interest in the initiative and make the process of connecting as easy and trouble free as possible.”

To be a lodger requires meeting eligibility of living in the Bellingen Shire currently, be in precarious housing and

be responsible, independent and are happy to live in a shared situation as a lodger.

If you would like to know more about being a potential host, the HMAG invites you to join them for an information session on Saturday July 3 from 10am to 11am at St Margaret’s Church Hall, 100

Hyde Street Bellingen.

Council candidate calls for better footpaths

often restricted by the absence of footpaths, poor maintenance or the lack of a safe way to cross a kerb at an intersection,” he said.

“Projections show that the number of people in our area who are over 75 years of age will double in the next 20 years.

“Many of those people will have mobility problems and we should be planning the right sort of infrastructure for them in advance to allow them to have the best possible quality of life.”

Mr Judge also notes that the lack of footpaths in some parts of the Council area is a serious road safety issue.

“Provision of footpaths has not kept up with the growth in population and increased development in some areas like the Northern Beaches,” he said.

“This often results in pedestrians sharing narrow roads with increasingly busy traffic flows.

“The safety issues arising from that

COFFS Harbour Mayoral candidate Tony Judge and the Labor Council Team have called for a greater focus on footpaths in the local government area to improve pedestrian safety and increase mobility for elderly and disabled residents.

“There is a tendency in political campaigns to focus on big, new policies and developments, but often the greatest benefits in local government come from fixing the smaller problems that are an everyday concern for residents and ratepayers,” Mr Judge said.

“Footpaths are one of those areas where good planning and consistent investment would improve the safety and quality of life of so many people in our Council area.

“All of us rely on footpaths to some extent for convenience and safety, but they are an even greater priority for people who are unsteady on their feet or in need of access for a mobility scooter.”

Mr Judge said in their case a wellmaintained footpath can be the difference between being able to safely access their neighbourhood and being restricted to their home. q Coffs Harbour Mayoral candidate Tony Judge has “However, their called for a greater Council focus on the improvement attempts to remain of footpaths in the region.

“At a time when we should be encouraging more walking for the health and environmental benefits, many people are being unnecessarily forced to use a car for short journeys,” he added.

According to Mr Judge, the answer to the problem lies in planning, building and maintaining good quality footpaths across the Council area.

“At a time when we are both growing in population and ageing, good footpaths are not just desirable, they are essential,” he said.

“If we are elected to Council, this will be a big area of focus for us.”

When asked how he planned to enjoy his Keno fun money, the overjoyed dad said he had one thing in mind.

“It means we will be able to buy some land to build our dream home,” he shared.

HYPOTHETICAL Taking a Legal Look

By Manny WOOD

Financial manager’s hands tied SALLY and William have been married for 30 years.

They own their matrimonial home jointly.

At the age of 75, William is diagnosed with dementia and soon loses the ability to manage his affairs.

Unfortunately, William had not executed a power of attorney or an appointment of enduring guardian, so Sally makes an application to the Guardianship Division of NCAT, seeking orders granting her the power to manage her husband’s affairs.

Sally is appointed as William’s guardian, giving her the power to make arrangements for William to obtain a placement in a nursing home and to make other decisions regarding his personal care and medical treatment.

However, in considering whether to make orders regarding the management of William’s financial affairs, the Tribunal hears that Sally wishes to sell their home and downsize on the basis that she is having difficulty maintaining the property on her own and meeting the expenses.

The Tribunal informs Sally that if she wishes to sell the property as his financial manager, she will only be permitted to use half of the proceeds of sale to purchase another property, because William is entitled to the other half of the proceeds of sale.

Sally is also informed that as William’s financial manager, she would also have to submit accounts to the NSW Trustee and Guardian as part of a regular audit process.

Accordingly, Sally withdraws her application and has no alternative but to continue living in the house.

If William had executed a power of attorney while he had the capacity to do so, these issues could have been avoided and the involvement of the Tribunal and the NSW Trustee and Guardian would not have been necessary.

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

PLEASE be advised that given recent developments in Greater Sydney and NSW Health’s most recent Public Health Order, Council has made the decision to transition to a hybrid operational environment for what is anticipated will be a two-week period commencing from today, Monday 28 June 2021.

NSW Health’s most recent Public Health Order states that: ● People who have been in the Greater Sydney region (including the Blue Mountains, Central Coast and Wollongong) on or after June 21 should follow the stayat-home orders for a period of 14 days after they left Greater Sydney.

DEAR Jasminda,

Done it again DEAR News Of The Area,

W DUESBURY has done it again.

Cherry-picked testimony of a known human-induced climate change denier (John Christy) to further claims that humans have no bearing on climate change.

Christy testified before the US House Committee on Science, Space and Technology.

He was one of a number of hand-picked deniers who would provide this Republican-led committee with the "evidence" it wanted to hear.

Only one scientist,

Michael Mann, was picked who had a differing message.

Christy's evidence has been disputed by a number of climate scientists, including that of Michael MacCracken (Chief Scientist for climate change programs at the Climate Institute). MacCracken has said of Christy's testimony, “[John] Christy complains about how atmospheric models are representing …the effects of changing atmospheric composition on climate.

“But the computer algorithms used to estimate tropospheric temperature

“The inconsistencies he has found…have been the result of his failure to properly correct for changes in the orbital height of the satellite, its time of passage, and so on.”

I do, however, think that I am able to detect bias in the evidence supplied to the readers of News Of The Area.

● Masks will be compulsory in all indoor non-residential settings, including workplaces, and at organised outdoor events.

Consequently, Bellingen Shire Council is working with all affected personnel to make the most practical arrangements possible to ensure Council can continue to deliver the essential services our community relies on in parallel with protecting their safety and wellbeing.

This includes introducing reduced operating hours between 10am and 2pm Monday to Friday, at Council’s Bellingen Administration Centre during this period, to provide customers with face-to-face access to the majority of council related transactions traditionally available.

Subsequently, Council is also encouraging our community to continue to take advantage of the broad range of online and over the phone customer service transactions that remain available during regular business hours, Monday to Friday, inclusive of Council’s building and planning inquiry services.

Further, to ensure best practice social

I'm in a relatively new relationship (six weeks) and last week my new love interest brought his toiletries bag and left it in my bathroom.

I'm not sure whether to tell him he forgot it, or whether he's put it there for when he visits.

I don't really like it on my cabinet because it looks weird next to the pot plant and candles.

Mrs Jenny K. Dear Jenny, JUST this week, my dog went into season which means I have to keep her away from all male dogs, particularly the very amorous fox terrier that lives a few houses away and who drops by to mark his territory by urinating on my outdoor plants, the front door, the cashmere sweater drying in the sun, and any other surface he can cock his tiny little leg over.

How one animal can hold so much fluid is beyond me.

When I take my dog for a walk, she now rubs her body over the grass, no doubt spreading her pheromones to alert every mutt that there's a pedigree in town.

It's hard work.

Bear with me, Jenny, this is leading somewhere.

When a male leaves his toiletry bag, it's a not-so-subtle sign that he's marking his territory (admittedly in a far more gracious way than a rabid hound.

Next, you'll find a pair of his shoes at the door, or a spare phone charger in the wall.

Soon, he'll keep a carton of full-cream milk in the fridge because he doesn't like the way your almond milk tastes, and then, before you know it, you'll both be 27 with a kid on the way, and you'll wonder how it all stemmed from a rather innocent looking bag containing a toothbrush, some mouthwash, anti-fungal cream (what the?), tweezers, a shaving brush and some deodorant (at least he has reasonable hygiene -- don't even pretend you didn't have a sneaky look at the contents).

Now, where you go from here is entirely up to you.

If you aren't ready to move into this next phase, then you need to let him know he's accidentally left his bag behind.

If you're more than happy for him to start taking over your personal space, one item at a time, until he's on the lease agreement, then just say nothing and enjoy the slow slide from independence to cohabitation.

Carpe diem, Jasminda.

it is appropriate, arrange to be tested for COVID-19 at one of several regional testing facilities.

Further, Council would also like to remind visitors to our Shire to observe NSW health guidelines on social distancing, self-isolation and testing procedures, handwashing and personal hygiene practices to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Finally, look after yourselves and each other and we will keep you up to date on any changes that may occur and please continue to do your best to keep everyone safe by helping to stop the spread of COVID-19.

Bellingen Shire Shines at North Coast Tourism Awards

By Andrea FERRARI

BELLINGEN Shire Council hosted the North Coast Tourism Symposium and Awards on Thursday June 24 at C.ex Urunga.

The event was attended by over 120 industry representatives from across the North Coast.

Keynote Speaker for the event was Gus Balbontin who had delegates in stitches from the minute he took to the stage, according to Michael Grieve, Manager Economic and Business Development at Bellingen

Shire Council.

“Originally from the wilds of Patagonia, he is a true, intrepid traveller and has worked as Executive Director of Lonely Planet and has presented to audiences across the world.”

“His high energy take on tourism and life brought some refreshing insights to the event,” said Council General Manager Liz Jeremy.

The Symposium covered some of the great work Destination North Coast is delivering and included presentations on

Bellingen Council showcased some of its Destination Development projects including upgrades to Dangar Falls, development of its Inclusive Tourism Strategy and featured presentations on the Great Koala National Park and the Shire’s new Branding Strategy.

outlined some of the work he’d been involved in with the branding strategy saying it stacked up as some of the best work he’s been involved in throughout his career.

The latest COVID outbreak in Sydney caused a quick adaptation meaning some speakers could still contribute via Zoom.

“The Tourism Awards in the evening were opened by local Gumbaynggirr Elder, Micklo Jarrett who had the audience spellbound with his unique Welcome to Country,” said Michael.

“In his welcome address, Mayor Dominic King, thanked all the local sponsors who included, Reflections Holiday Parks, Riverside Holiday Resort Urunga, National Parks and Wildlife, Affirmations Bellingen, C.ex Group and Waves to Wilderness.

“The event was topped off with Raleigh Winery offering guests a generous dose of their Brandy Crème Liqueur complemented by some delicious chocolates and with music provided by young, local artist Hannah Harlen.”

Competitors ranged from preschoolers to nans and pops.

Runners headed out of the Woolgoolga Beach Reserve, north to Woolgoolga Lakeside Holiday Park.

“Our overall male and female 2.4km winners were Jahmal Moncada with a time of 10:20.10 and Willow Nuttall with a time of 11:51.69,” said Charlotte.

The Woolgoolga Running

Festival will be back in 2022 with plans to expand the current event program to include a beach sprint and trail run.

“This event could not have happened without our event partners the Woolgoolga Little Athletics Club, NRMA Parks and Resorts, Coffs Harbour City Council, NEXUS Gym Woolgoolga, Boots Concreting and Ace Sunglasses.”

WOOLGOOLGA Running Festival launched onto the running calendar with its first annual event, in Woolgoolga on Sunday 27 June 2021.

This inaugural event consisted of 2.4km, 5km and 10km fun runs.

Each course left the Event Village in Woolgoolga Beach Reserve and followed the coastline around the

The overall male and female 10km winners were Chris Giffin, with a time of 46:13.17 and Jennifer Porra running a respectable 56:53.61.

Next up was the 5km fun run that took competitors along the coastline and lakeside. q

This course was designed for its accessibility for prams and wheelchairs with the event encouraging greater diversity amongst participants in 2022.

Taking out the 5km overall male and female first place podiums were Shane Brown with a time of 17:35.24 and Rebecca Otto with a time of 25:31.78.

The final event of the day was the hotly contested 2.4km run.

DESPICABLE ME 2

GO!, 7.30pm

By the time they made the sequel, the folks behind Despicable Me had clearly realised the goldmine they had in the Minions, so they’ve got an expanded role here, which should please fans of their madcap mischief. One-time supervillain turned super dad Gru (voiced by Steve Carell, above) is back, and this time he’s fighting evil, not masterminding it. Every bit as enjoyable as the original.

What could go wrong when five comedians compete in an off-the-wall game show? Well, as it turns out, nothing. Everything goes spectacularly, hilariously well in Taskmaster. A huge success in Britain, the panel show panel boasting some very batty banter has since spawned offshoots in Belgium, Sweden, Spain, Denmark, Norway, Finland and New Zealand. Hosted by Greg Davies (right) and Alex Horne, it’s the sort of show that can make Monday a joyous affair.

Tonight, settle in for a raucous double episode.

In “This Is Trevor”, The Inbetweeners star Joe Thomas grapples with awkward hand-wear. Then, in “Aquatic Sewing Machine”, coffee pots aren’t his friend.

WOULD I LIE TO YOU?

ABC TV PLUS, 8.30pm

A person’s ability to nonchalantly spin lies isn’t usually a source of pride or honour, but the tables are turned in this cheerfully silly game show. Those who are skilled at telling fibs score the points, as two teams compete to see who can pull the wool over the other team’s eyes. Everything from facial expressions, to hand movements and the veracity of the story are under the microscope as host Rob Brydon (above) plays mediator. Tonight, the celebrity guests who are hoping to forge their way to victory are radio presenter Maya Jama, comedian and actor Roisin Conaty, TV personality Roman Kemp and kids’ show host and doctor Dr Xand van Tulleken.

Woolgoolga community campaign supported by Council

By Emma DARBIN THE Woolgoolga community has had a win with a community campaign by local residents against a new service station and takeaway store in the town supported unanimously by Coffs Harbour City councillors.

The new Mobil service station and takeway food and drink premises was proposed to be established at the site of the current Pine Lodge Motel on the corner of Solitary Islands Way and Clarence Street, Woolgoolga, on a busy roundabout.

The service station was proposed to operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The proposed development attracted 136 community submissions during its public exhibition, with only three of these in support of the development.

Council staff had recommended approval of the development at Council’s recent meeting on Thursday 24 June.

Kath Puddey spoke passionately against the development on behalf of the Northern Beaches Residents Association and called on councillors to reject the development application.

“We totally reject the Council staff recommendation that this development is suitable for the site,” Ms Puddey said.

“This development is in conflict with the aspirations of the community on many levels.

“This is a cornerstone site, development on this site should complement the unique characteristics of Woolgoolga and establish a welcome gateway to town; the proposed development does neither.”

Ms Puddy said the development was in conflict with the Woolgoolga Town Centre Masterplan, and also listed traffic and safety concerns, environmental impacts and social conflicts as the major reasons to reject the development.

“Traffic movement is a major concern,” she said.

“The community fought hard for a bypass to take heavy vehicles away from the town centre.”

Ms Puddey likened the development to “an elephant in a shoebox”, due to the site’s small size.

“You might squeeze it in but it will bust out and fall apart,” she said.

“Everything about this development is squeezed in; there is no room for error.”

Project developer Steve Jones spoke for the development and of the benefits a 24-hour service station would bring to the Northern Beaches community.

“I’m really excited about this development,” Mr Jones said.

“One of the big pluses we see in this development is the 24/7 convenience of being able to go and buy a loaf of bread and some milk, to get a packet of panadol in the middle of the night.

“We see that as something that’s lacking in the community at the moment.”

Cr John Arkan and Cr Sally Townley moved an alternate motion at the Council meeting to refuse the development due to its unacceptable impact on the amenity of the local area, unacceptable impacts on traffic, and inconsistency with the Woolgoolga Town Centre Masterplan and zoning of the site.

“This is an important DA,” Cr Arkan said.

“It’s been talked about alot within the community.

“What we’ve seen here is the community working together with Council, in that the lobby groups, residents’ association and the people of Woolgoolga have been speaking loud and clear.”

Cr Arkan said if approved the development would detrimentally affect the local amenity of Woolgoolga.

“The amenity now will be affected, and it will be affected in the future for a long time,” Cr Arkan said.

“It will be affected in a detrimental way that won’t help the township develop in an appropriate way.”

However, Cr Arkan stressed to councillors the need to do something in “that gateway area” to Woolgoolga.

“The northern beaches do get left behind, we are not putting infrastructure in for the future in the Northern Beaches,” he stated.

“That’s really important that we get infrastructure right before the development.

“Council have a responsibility, as well as the developers, in making sure the infrastructure is up to date.”

Cr Keith Rhoades chose not to support the development once he was informed that the developer would not be amenable to decreasing the service stations’s 24 hours of operation.

“I am of the view that none of our villages or major town centres off the Pacific Highway need a 24 hour operation such as this,” Cr Rhoades said.

“I cannot support that on the basis that it is a 24 hour operation business.”

Cr Rhoades said 24 hour service stations need to be based on a “major road network”.

Cr Sally Townley highlighted the similarities between the development and the Moonee Service Station development that was refused by Council and the Land and Environment Court following another community campaign by local residents.

“I think perhaps a lot of councillors are having a sense of dejavu with this particular development application and its similarity to the proposed service station at Moonee a while ago,” Cr Townley said.

“It’s got so many similarities, an absolute prime piece of commercial real estate right there in the middle of town, the entry to town, the street frontage and a huge range of commercial possibilities that could take place on that site.”

Cr Townley said she supported refusal of this development due to a “really fundamental flaw that it just

doesn't fit on that site”.

She questioned how young service station staff would traffic control large reversing semi trailers and fuel tankers on such a small site.

“It’s just a recipe for disaster,” Cr Townley stressed to councillors.

“It’s not a fit, there’s too many things going on on that small space, it’s a really busy street.

“I actually find that there’s quite a few things wrong with this development.”

Cr Tegan Swan also supported refusal of the development.

“The potential for something like a service station is actually north of that (site), in the Town Masterplan it’s not even actually a recommended development for that site,” Cr Swan stated.

“It’s not the perfect development to welcome people into our town, given that the desire of the Masterplan is to retain the beautiful feel of our coastal

village.

“It’s pretty important that we look to the long term future of Woolgoolga and the importance of this site and ensure that we do refuse this application.”

Cr Arkan and Cr Townley’s motion to refuse the development application was unanimously supported by all councillors present at the meeting.

Council refused the development application for a service station and takeaway food and drink premises, including the demolition of existing structures at Clarence Street, Woolgoolga as the development will have an unacceptable impact on the amenity of the locality, unacceptable impacts on traffic, inconsistency with the Woolgoolga Town Centre Masterplan objectives and inconsistency with objectives of the B4 zone.

Mayor Denise Knight and Cr Paul Amos did not vote on the matter due to a conflict of interest.

Bombers Blitz Sawtell 5-1

By David Wigley

THE Boambee Bombers blitzed Sawtell FC 5-1 in the Coastal Premier League last Saturday at Toormina Oval.

It was another commanding display in the middle of the park for midfield talisman and Boambee captain Mitchell Brewster who intercepted Sawtell attacks, kept possession and attacked with measured passes in transition play.

“Compared to previous games this season today’s performance was by far one of the better we’ve put out all year and that’s filled the team with a lot of confidence going forward,” he said.

“We were able to move the ball around well today and we weren’t really troubled by much in defence which is a credit to our efforts in defence all over the pitch.

“We put a lot of

q

emphasis on minimising our mistakes by not being wasteful in possession and by doing that we were able to comfortably see out the match,” said Mitchell.

The three points gives Boambee a four point cushion from their closest rivals in third position.

Boambee coach Adrian Pickup gave News Of The Area his assessment of the local derby.

“Boambee came to Toormina Oval with a plan to take control of the ball and play some good football for 90 minutes,” Adrian said.

“Well it played out in the first 45 minutes, our control in the first 45 minutes was outstanding, our passing and the movement of players created many chances.

“We knew that if Sawtell took control of the ball they could be dangerous, when they had the ball we defended well and won the

ball back to create chances.”

Adrian said that elements of the game which his side had worked on at training contributed to the first two goals.

“Tyh Murphy won the ball in his own half and a determined run saw him pass the Sawtell players into the Sawtell penalty area gliding his shot into the net.

“We then controlled the possession with Luke France, Tom Frewen and Kyan Page causing the Sawtell defence all sorts of trouble.

“With a play out from the back right full back Brad Clancy was sent away down the right to supply Luke France with a great team goal slotting in from six metres out.”

Sawtell kept pushing however, forcing a sharp save from the Boambee shotstopper.

“To Sawtells credit they continued to play football

q The match was finely poised at halftime with a scoreline of 2-1. when they had the ball, the only time young Kyle Wood in goal was tested was from a good combination play that Kyle stopped with a diving save.”

Sawtell’s persistence then paid off, bringing them right back into the contest.

“Sawtell found a play down the right and our midfield allowed the Sawtell midfield to slip the ball to Juan Medus who turned the defender inside out and finished with a great shot,” Adrian said.

“Half time 2-1 to Boambee with a deserved lead that could have been more.

As the second half began, Boambee controlled the ball better, creating several chances.

Sawtell wouldn't go away however, creating a few chances for themselves, before the game changed when a Sawtell defender was sent off for a confrontation inside the penalty area on Kyan Page.

“Luke France sent the keeper the wrong way 3-1,

Boambee then created many more chances but Sawtell continued playing football once they had the ball,” Adrian said.

“The Boambee defence slipped up on a few occasions only to see Sawtell squandering their chances, two more great goals from Jack Martin and Brad Clancy sealed a vital and deserved win for Boambee.

“With the game won we were able to see two injuries return to the first squad with Brad Parker and Adam Pickup showing they could soon be ready.

“100% effort and some great possession saw Boambee see off a spirited Sawtell team 5-1,” concluded Adrian.

Sawtell coach Joe Skyrtic is seeking to increase his team’s intensity in coming weeks.

“We needed a bit more intensity in the first half, we stayed in the game but didn’t create many chances,” Joe said.

Northern Beaches Blues first to beat Coffs Harbour Breakers

By Aiden BURGESS THE Northern Beaches Blues have proven to be genuine premiership contenders after passing their ultimate test with flying colours, becoming the first team to beat the Coffs Harbour Breakers this AFL North Coast season.

The Blues emerged victorious by 20 points winning 14.7 (91) to 10.11 (71) against the undefeated ladder ladders away from home at Fitzroy Oval.

The Blues kicked the opening goal of the match which seemed to spark the Breakers into action, as they kicked the next four straight goals to take a 10-point lead into quarter time.

Both heavyweight sides traded blows in a backand-forth battle, as one side would hit straight back constantly when the other

team scored, with the match living up to its billing of a top of the table clash.

A goal to the Breakers just on half-time saw both teams head into the sheds locked at 41-41.

A dominant third quarter from the Blues would be pivotal, with a 4 goal to 1 period from the visitors proving to be decisive as they took an 18-point lead into three-quarter time.

The Blues locked down defensively against the ladder leaders in the premiership quarter, as their relentless pressure shut down the Breakers free-flowing run and carry game.

An early fourth quarter goal to the Blues all but sealed the match.

The Northern Beaches Blues women’s side also beat the ladder leading Coffs Harbour Breakers winning

by one goal in a thrilling contest.

The Blues became the first team to beat the Breakers this season in the women’s competition.

Blues coach Adrian Roberts emphasised the key aspect which led to his side beating the ladder leaders.

“We have the speed and skill we just needed to match their physicality, which we did,” he said.

“Contested possession was key and our midfield matched them which led to the attack.”

Roberts said his side had been building towards the performance needed to beat the reigning premiers.

“We played them in the grand final last year and we’ve been gradually improving since,” he said.

“I said to the girls we’ve been improving each week

and the next hurdle was being physical with them and beating them.”

“We started off well in the second half until an incident in the box had us down to 10 men, that was the turning point of the game.

Sawtell Hosts State Croquet Championships

By Andrew VIVIAN

The tournament consisted of two days of doubles and three days of singles.

All games were played for two hours, with most

competitors playing three games each day.

Those players who competed in both the singles and the doubles faced a real test of stamina and concentration as they played as many as a dozen games over the five days, The doubles were won by Peter Deeth and Wayne Gadke from the Coutts Crossing Croquet Club who defeated locals Gary Urquhart and Graeme Marshall in a hotlycontested competition.

Several doubles games were decided by a golden hoop when both teams were on the same score at the end of the two hours.

Michael Hastings of Sawtell was runner up in the singles.

The singles were won by Ray Chapman representing Ballina Cherry Street from Michael Hastings of Sawtell in the best of three final, which went to three games.

The Knockout Plate event was won by Peter Deeth of Coutts Crossing from Rod Munro of Sawtell.

The Sawtell Croquet Club considers hosting this year’s event to be a big vote of confidence from Croquet NSW. Visitors all said they enjoyed playing in the beautiful and quiet parkland setting of the Club.

Perfect Panthers continue brilliant season

By Aiden BURGESS THE Sawtell Panthers under 13s are having a brilliant season.

And their domination of their Group 2 Junior Rugby League competition was on full display in their 46-6 victory against Smithtown during the latest round of matches at Rex Hardaker Oval.

As they have done all season, the Panthers dominated their opponents as they carved the Smithtown defence to shreds, seemingly having the potential to score every time a player touched

the ball.

The Panthers sit at the top of the ladder undefeated with seven wins and an amazing for and against of 297.

Panthers under 13s coach Steve Moore said it was each young Panther playing their role which led to their dominance and individual brilliance.

“The boys are good at doing the simple things, and the way we do things is that every player plays their role,” he said.

“We have a lot of talented players, big forwards, talented halves, and our

backs are good finishers.

“We have a lot of attacking options.”

Moore highlighted the main aspect which had led to their great record this season.

“Defensively our team works well, and today was the first try we had allowed in five games,” he said.

The Panthers coach shared with News Of The Area what it was like to coach such a talented young team.

“They are pretty good kids and a good bunch of boys,” he said.

“They get to that age where they test you, but the most pleasing thing is they are good at implementing what you tell them when

they play, especially defensively as our defensive record speaks for itself.”

“Things like trying to get younger all girl comps and building the skills of those younger players has made a huge difference to the quality of the girls teams at our club.

will represent NSW at the interstate teams event and compete against New Zealand in the 2021 Tasman Challenge.

After three days of doubles and singles squash the North Coast finished in fourth position in both the boys and girls team event.

North Coast’s Team Manager Col Hocking gave News Of The Area some insights into the competition.

“This competition is a good pathway into the New South Wales Combined High School team, the first couple of days are team events followed by the individual events.

“In previous years we’ve had players make the NSW squad and go onto make the national team and travel to New Zealand to play in the

Trans-Tasman Challenge.

“The facilities at Coffs Harbour Squash Club are world class, teams enjoy travelling up here and playing on the courts.

“The competition spans over three days so many families also take the opportunity to have a mini break whilst up here,” said Col.

“Second half was Lions all the way with Mabior Garang terrorising the storm defence, paying off with superbly taken chances and then a penalty to finish his hat-trick, two more goals by Jemila Oko and Chris Dooley ended the score 5-0,” said Glen.

Northern Storm coach Eric McCarthy commented, “We were outclassed across

the park and made it hard for ourselves with too many loose passes and playing balls down blind alleys.

“We're a better side than that and need to take a good hard look at ourselves after that result.

“Take nothing away from Coffs, they were faultless in their play and game plan but our group of players when they follow

a plan and play to their potential shouldn't be losing a game by that score line,” said Eric.

The Lions are on the road to the Macleay Valley Rangers on Saturday 3 July at 3pm whilst the Northern Storm have a home fixture against the Taree Wildcats on Saturday 3 July with a 2:30pm kick off at Korora Oval.

Coffs United Lions Roar to 5-0 Win

By David WIGLEY

THE Coffs United Lions roared to a 5-0 win over the Northern Storm last Sunday to remain four points clear at the top of the CPL ladder.

A hat-trick from 18 year old Mabior Garang with goals from Jemila Oko and Chris Dooley sealed the points which made Mabior the marksman ‘happy’ after a difficult first half.

“It was a very difficult first half for us, even though we were putting them under the pump we didn’t put away our chances which made us frustrated and we didn’t play our best football,” Mabior said.

“In the second half we came out with very high intensity putting their backline under pressure and putting away our chances.

“I’m happy to help out the team with a hat-trick and continue our good form in the CPL,” said Mabior.

Lions coach Glen Williams praised his players’ hard work.

“Mclean Street showed it’s hard and bumpy self for the clash between the Lions and Storm, first grade started at quite a pace with q Hat-trick hero Mabior Garang with Storm captain Nathan Skinner.

“Our senior women were brilliant helping the

Local lawn bowler is a national junior champion

By Aiden BURGESS LOCAL lawn bowls phenom Joseph Clarke is a newly crowned Australian junior champion, after winning the Australian Open Under-18 title on the Gold Coast last week.

The 16-year-old won the national title with a 21-15 victory in the final against Central Coast bowler Bailey Meti.

The Park Beach Bowls Club member qualified for the final in dramatic fashion, having to come back from a 20-12 deficit in the semi-final before winning 21-20.

The NSW Junior squad member had a good lead in the final, leading 20-15 in the final end only to be down 3 shots with 1 bowl remaining.

A perfectly waited shot saw Clarke take the jack and followed it into the ditch to take the 1 shot he

needed to win the title.

The new junior national champion was watched on by his father and fellow Park Beach Bowls Club member Peter, who emphasised the great young bowlers his son overcame to claim the title.

“He went up there a big underdog, as the guy he beat in the semi-final was one of the top two favourites to win the tournament, and the kid he beat in the final was number one in NSW,” he said.

“And out of the top 8 finalists he was the only one that wasn’t sponsored.

“He was definitely the underdog going against guys with more experience and older than him, so it was a huge feat and pretty special.”

The proud father told News Of The Area of the nerve-wracking moments spent watching his son as he fought back from the

brink of defeat to win his semi-final.

“It was 10-all at one stage and then the other guy got out to a lead, and we were so nervous,” he said.

“It was very stressful and I’d say nervous was an understatement.

“But if you know Joe he never gives up, and while we were stressing,he had this calm look on his face and he just clicked into gear and took it up a level.

Hockey Coffs Coast’s under 15 girls win state title

By Aiden BURGESS HOCKEY Coffs Coast have claimed a rare double at the Hockey NSW Field State Championships, after the under 15 girls took out their division at the state championships in Lithgow.

The state title followed Hockey Coffs Coast’s under 15 boys taking out their own state title in Armidale just three weeks prior.

The under 15 girls got their campaign off to a flying start with a 3-0 victory over Hunter with Jess Zweirs scoring a double.

Hockey Coffs Coast won their second match of the opening day with a Molly Williams goal proving to be the difference in a 1-0 victory against Parkes 2.

The Coffs girls won their third straight match with a 2-0 win against Sydney East 2 on day two, with Jess Zweirs scoring her second double of the championships.

The girls finished 0-0 with Orange 2 in their final game before the semi-finals.

Hockey Coffs Coast finished top of their pool and played off against Central Coast 2 in their semi-final, which would see the Coffs team progress to

the final after a 0-0 result, by virtue of their higher position.

The Hockey Coffs Coast girls would then win the state title in dramatic fashion.

Facing Orange 2 for the state championship, the title would be decided by a penalty shootout after finishing 0-0 at full-time.

And it would be the Hockey Coffs Coast girls who would step up when it mattered most, especially goalie Ella-Ruth BeynonWhitelaw.

As she had been all tournament, Ella-Ruth Beynon-Whitelaw was an absolute powerhouse in goal, saving every one of the opposition one-on-one’s.

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately?

Ever Heard Of A Sacrificial Anode?

A sacrificial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efficiently working system and a costly replacement.

Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion. After its 5th birthday – warranty expires.

At a Reasonable Price.

Friday, 2 July 2021

By David WIGLEY

THE Super W round two series opened with a thrilling 17-17 draw between the Western Force and the Presidents XV at C.ex International Stadium.

The Western Force dominated the scrum and opened the scoring through powerful running in the centre piercing the Presidents XV backline.

As the match progressed the Presidents XV imposed their running game spreading the ball out wide stretching their opponents and exploiting the space to score three tries and level the match 17-17.

Four days later on Sunday 30 June, the President’s XV backed up from their grueling 17-17 draw to defeat title contenders the Brumbies 19-13.

In the second match of the day at C.ex International Stadium, the Queensland Reds survived a flurry of attacks in the last ten minutes to defeat the Melbourne Rebels 17- 12 to chalk up their first win of the competition.

The third match of the day between the NSW Waratahs and Western Force was cancelled when the Force returned to Perth as COVID-19 restrictions

Rugby Australia General Manager Women’s Rugby Jilly Collins explained, “It is obviously very disappointing to be in this position, but we had to consider the welfare of our players and staff based in Western Australia.

“These programs are not fulltime, players and management take time away from family and off work to compete in this tournament. "Given the new restrictions implemented, our priority was to ensure the minimum of further disruption to their lives outside of the sport.

“The situation for our other teams is slightly different but we will continue to manage that on a day-to-day basis," said Jilly.

The Round Three matchup between Western Force Women and the Melbourne Rebels Women scheduled for June 30 was then cancelled.

Later that day, the Queensland Reds Women beat President's XV 54-5 in a powerful display, before the NSW Waratahs Women were too strong for the Brumbies Women, coming away 24-3 winners.

Super W competition comes to Coffs Harbour q Western Force opened the scoring through powerful runs in the centre.
