By Margie TIERNEY DRIVING rain and a high tide didn’t deter MidCoast Council from starting the mammoth job of replenishing sand onto Jimmy’s Beach last week.

“The plan is to undertake the sand replenishment in two stages, placing 5,000 cubic metres each time onto the beach along the Boulevarde at Winda Woppa” Council’s Coastal Management Coordinator, Andrew Staniland said.

to protecting the environment, that’s why we’re eliminating single-use plastic bags by 30 June,” said Mr Trappel.

“The decision to go plastic bag free was an easy one to make,” Peter said.

“Early access to CPR and defibrillation can influence survival rates by up to 75 percent.”

As part of the Government program, staff took part in a free training session last week.

“These units are very easy to use with the machine talking you through the whole process,” Alan told News Of The Area.

Myall Lakes MP Stephen Bromhead said 10 sporting

clubs in the electorate had been allocated funding in the first round of the program.

“The MidCoast has a rich history of enjoying community sport and we look forward to the installation of more of these portable life-saving devices in our region,” he said.

More than 2,500 defibrillators will be installed at community sporting facilities throughout NSW over the next four years.

It is possible to split the superannuation entitlements of married (and de facto couples, except in Western Australia) as part of a property settlement adjustment ? Such splits need to be the subject of a Court order or a Superannuation Agreement entered into strictly in accordance with the Family Law Act.

Superannuation assets increased 6.8% in aggregate from March 2017 and were $2,606.2 billion at 31 March 2018. These assets were contained in SMSF, Industry Funds, Public and Private Sector schemes and Statutory Funds. The nature, form and characteristics of these funds differ and different rules apply to different types of funds, even after a splitting order has been made.

This is so for adjustments made to base amounts that a non member spouse (NMS) might receive in a SMSF and most Defined Benefit Funds. When a splitting order is served on the trustee of these funds, the trustee generally holds the base amount for payment to the NMS until the member satisfies a condition of release.

In the interim the trustee adds interest to the base amount pending payment in accordance with determinations of the Government Actuary. The Family Law (Superannuation) (Interest Rate for Adjustment Period) Determination 2018 was recently released and an interest rate of 4.9% per annum will be added to the relevant base amounts in the financial year beginning 1 July 2018.

Helen, Barbara and Louis (middle), Sue (front row).

Young Graffiti Busters STUDENTS at Bulahdelah Central School have had a lesson in removing graffiti from the regions well-known Graffiti Buster, Ted Bickford.

Commonly known as ‘Mr Graffiti’, Ted has been voluntarily removing graffiti since retiring in the Great

News Of The Area

Lakes area more than 20 years ago.

“In the beginning I just went around and removed the graffiti using my own equipment,” he said.

“The Council found out what I was doing and supplied a car and the

chemicals to remove it.”

After a process of trial and error to find the most suitable products to use on different surfaces, Mr Bickford can now proudly boast there is nothing he cannot remove.

During last week’s workshop at Bulahdelah, 20 community-minded students from Years 5-11 were taught the ropes in preparation for ridding the school of graffiti.

Relieving Principal Mrs Deb Gilbert, said the school is “very fortunate” to have partnered with Mr Bickford, who is known for his “generosity’ and “expertise”.

“We have had a couple of situations where people have come in on a weekend and graffitied, and that is something we want to address,” she said.

By Margie TIERNEY IN these days of very fast trains, planes and automobiles, it’s often the case that many families are spread out all over the country and only come together for the big occasions, such as weddings and sadly funerals.

The ‘Parish’ clan is a classic example.

Not so long ago, the Parish siblings, cousins, uncles and aunties all got together for the funeral of an elderly relative in Lismore, in the State’s Northern Rivers.

“We’d come from all over for Uncle John’s farewell, he was the last of my father’s brothers and aged 96,” Liz Cullen ‘nee Parish’ told News Of The Area.

“We hadn’t seen our cousins for years and what followed shortly after was a sign that our family was destined to have more regular get togethers when I bumped into a cousin again

in Sydney a short time later.”

As it happened some of the Parish clan were already holding regular get-togethers at Bulahdelah and the Sydney connection decided to join in.

“The first time we headed off from Sydney bound for Bulahdelah we never made it.”

“A rock on the highway tore our tyre to shreds and being a Sunday the only place that could replace the tyre was on the Central Coast,” Liz said A tow truck ride and two tyres made for a $900 trip.

But it was second time lucky, with Liz, sister Sue and brothers Geoffrey and Jonathon making it to Bulahdelah last weekend for a great catch-up with their extended family at the local Bowling Club.

“There was Helen from Port Macquarie, Louis from Toronto, Barbara from the Central Coast, Eric from Farley and Phillip from Vacy,” Liz said.

“We all had a great time and they plan on making it a regular get-together every three months.”

“The kids are very keen to learn from Mr Bickford and make our school look fantastic.”

The group of young ‘Graffiti Busters’ have already conducted an audit of the school grounds and buildings and identified

areas that need to be cleaned.

Mrs Gilbert said the students are now ready to roll up their sleeves and get stuck into the task.

While graffiti is an ongoing issue for some local Councils, costing millions

of dollars to remove, Mr Bickford said since expanding his program into schools, “there is now practically no graffiti in our area”.

“It’s about having a sense of pride in the area around you,” he said.

MYALL COAST

Accountants National Accolade MEGAN Faraday-Bensley has been named as a national finalist in the prestigious 2018 Australian Accounting Awards.

The awards recognise excellence across all sectors of the accounting industry and acknowledge the profession’s most senior ranks through to its rising stars.

Megan has been honoured in the Partner of the Year category in recognition of her work with Prosperity Advisers Group.

“I was humbled to receive this recognition amongst my industry peers,” Megan said.

“The award recognises my commitment to my client and business relationships as well as my drive for our business to continue

to innovate and adopt technological change to stay at the forefront of our profession.”

Megan, a former Bulahdelah Central School Captain, said she was attracted to a career in accounting through the opportunity to work fulltime while studying parttime at university and furthering her education.

“I was fortunate to start working with Prosperity a week after my last HSC exam,” she said.

“I didn’t know anything about Prosperity when I joined the company, but soon learned that it is an organisation where hard work and outcomes are recognised irrespective of age and gender.”

Now an experienced

Chartered Accountant who leads the firm’s Tax Business Advisory team across three offices, Megan said she was offered the opportunity to become an equity partner at just 26 years of age.

“I am one of 13 shareholders in the business and we have 150 staff across Sydney, Brisbane and Newcastle offices,” she said.

Megan told News Of The Area the experiences she gained growing up in Markwell and completing her school education at Bulahdelah laid the foundations for her successful career.

“The values of a strong work ethic, getting involved in extracurricular activities and recognising the importance of relationships were embedded in my thinking from an early age.

These have been paramount to my career success,” she said.

Iconic Reserve Stays Open FEARS that O’Sullivan’s Gap Reserve could be permanently closed to the public have been laid to rest, with National Parks and Wildlife Services (NPWS) assuring the community that the area will remain open.

Wootton Community Network (WCN) member Pat Tate said the group raised concerns after being informed that the reserve, located between Bulahdelah and Wootton, “was facing likely closure due to costs and lack of use”.

“We were planning on lobbying to get some improvements made to the picnic area and walking trail, but we were told that the preference of NPWS was to close the area,” she said.

Addressing a crowd of residents at a recent public meeting called by the WCN, group member Craig Tate said the reserve is an important area of unique flora and fauna.

“We need to keep it open because people are never going to see these species together in any other place,” he said.

“We need to have that recognised and published right across NSW as we are sitting on something that is essentially an iconic thing.”

News Of The Area contacted NPWS for comment and received a statement confirming, “The O’Sullivan’s Gap Picnic area will not be closed”.

“Given the strong support within the Wootton community, NPWS will consult if any changes are proposed for the site,” Senior Public Affairs Officer from the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage Stuart Cohen stated.

Pat said the WCN will continue to negotiate with NPWS to ensure the public can enjoy the unique area well into the future.

Tea Gardens Mens Bowling Club

By The JAFFA

20 JUNE: The usual Wednesday Nominated Triples looked very much in doubt today but the rain disappeared early in the morning after flooding the greens overnight.

How lucky we are to have a synthetic green to rely on.

When play got underway, 37 players competed over 2 games of 12 ends.

Only two teams were successful in winning both games with the money winners comprising; Keith Smith, Rob Young and John Younghusband. They compiled 57 points.

The winner of the Bistro voucher was Peter Gurney.

22 June: As expected, numbers are down for Friday Open Pairs but it is nice to see players turning up and having a competitive roll.

Once the Pennant season is completed Friday Open Pairs will get back on to an even keel.

23 June: Round 7 of the Newcastle District Saturday Pennant competition resumed today with the Pelican Pest Control sponsored Grade 4 side playing at home to Karuah and the Pelican Pest Control sponsored Grade 6 side playing away at Karuah In Grade 4 one home side was successful.

The Keith Smith four had a great win 24-19 and the Barry Drayton side were narrowly beaten but the remaining game was disappointing losing by a mammoth 23 shots.

Karuah winning the Master Board 68-46.

The Grade 6 side fared no better, playing on a rain affected green which was running at about 11-12 seconds.

Only one Tea Gardens team put in a good showing with the Danny Johnson team going down by one shot 19-20 and the remaining two teams comprehensively beaten.

Karuah were the easy winners 71-36.

News Of The Area

Bowling Club President Noel Jackson.

had something to crow about after their home ground experience a day later.

It was a white-wash win to Tea Gardens with all teams having comfortable wins.

The Danny Johnson lead team won 32-11; the Anthony Green four won 24-17 and the Ron James four completed the set winning 3713.

Tea Gardens winning the match 93-41.

In other News: The Club Annual General Meeting was held today with a new Management Committee being elected for the coming financial year.

Noel Jackson will lead the new team as President.

He will have some new blood with him and enough old hands to ensure continuity.

It was pleasing to see all positions filled and even some competition for positions on the Committee.

All bowlers wish them well.

The draw for the triples has been done but due to the commitment of pennants the first game will now start 1st July with 10 teams (30 players) competing.

q B Grade winner Rob Simmons.

I have taken on the plastic free challenge in the lead up to Plastic Free July, but when I go to the supermarket everything is wrapped in plastic packaging. Also, I keep forgetting to take my reusable bags with me and I’m spending a small fortune on new ones each time.

Mrs HQ, Salamander Bay Dear Mrs PA, I’M very pleased you brought this up, because although supermarkets are responding to the backlash from their plastic bag use and phasing them out, there is still plastic everywhere.

Cucumbers are wrapped in plastic, chopped up pieces of pumpkin and potato are wrapped in plastic (because apparently we’ve not only lost our minds, but also our ability to chop things up), mushrooms are pre-sliced and wrapped in plastic, and all this before we even leave the fruit and veg aisle. From there it’s just plastic city.

Given that our beautiful waterways are in a right old mess at the moment from the shipping container spill, plastic is on the public’s radar more than ever.

Now, the last line in your conundrum is easily solved. Since you probably have close to 50 reusable bags due to your forgetfulness, you just need to go to the pantry (right now, Mrs HQ, I want you to go right after you’ve finished reading this sentence; you can come back to me later) and put at least half your reusable bags in the boot of your car, in fact all readers do it now. I’m about to do the same.

Back so soon? Wasn’t too difficult was it?

Now for the next dilemma, you can pop your fruit and vegies into one of your reusable bags, thereby saving the need to put them into the grotty trolley or another plastic bag. Don’t buy the prechopped rubbish. It’s heaps more expensive per kilo anyway. Or, you can do what they did on that vigilante YouTube video and gather with fellow rebels, discard all your plastic as you shop, make a big pile of plastic at the checkout, and maybe join together in a flash mob dance where you pretend to be happy little cauliflowers, carrots and cucumbers. Alternatively, shop at one of the many farmers’ markets where they use string bags or baskets. I hope this helps. Good on you for trying to make a difference.

Carpe diem, Jasminda

ADMINISTRATOR OF THE YEAR: Maxine Cook.

Thursday, 28 June, 2018

THE flags may be down at Bennetts Beach, but our local Surf Life Savers recently received some well-earned recognition for their efforts both in and out of the water last season.

Last week, the Hunter Surf Life Saving Branch held their 2017/2018 season Award of Excellence Presentation Night.

Tea Gardens Hawks Nest Surf Life Saving Club (TGHN SLSC) again figured prominently as a club of excellence in the categories of competition, administration, and life-saving skills.

Long time member, Peter Rogers told News Of The Area, “Maxine Cook walked away as the Administrator of the Year.”

“No-one in the Newcastle Branch gets near to in her efforts to achieve this and keep Tea Gardens Hawks Nest heading in the right direction.”

“Maxine is the main reason that TGHN SLSC is the only Gold Medal accredited

q

HIGH DISTINCTION: Chris Sando.

Surf Life Saving Club in NSW.” Not to be outdone Chris ‘Turtle’ Sando received the High Distinction Life Saver of the Year Award.

“When you think of everyone who patrols the beaches from Tea Gardens Hawks Nest north of Newcastle to Caves Beach south of Newcastle, 13 clubs in the branch, it is awesome that someone from our beach is recognised as the elite lifesaver in the branch.”

The Club was also recognised for the saving of a life at the Surf Carnival

NewsOfTheArea.com.au

held at Bennett’s Beach in December.

The skills of Linda Stubbs, Sharron Taylor, Catrina Hellicar, Kelly Pietsch and Steve Tranter were recognised as ‘Heroes of the Surf ‘for the life saving resuscitation of 45 year old Anthony Duggan who had suffered a heart attack while competing for The Entrance male masters boat crew.

Both Surf Life Saving and the Paramedics were in praise of their skills on the day.

“The community of Tea

Gardens and Hawks Nest is so lucky to have such skilled and dedicated people looking after them on our fabulous beach,” Peter Rogers said.

“The community is indeed in safe hands both in and out of the water.”
