Art explains and preserves our culture and our values, and in this issue I look at two different cultures on display recently.

One was the City of Salisbury Watershed Creative Art Exhibition. It was a modern, elegant event in a beautiful gallery with delicate canapés and speeches from the Mayor. This year the theme was sustainability and Northern Living took delight in selecting an Editor’s Choice Award. Nicole and I were looking for a painting that would grace the cover of this month’s magazine.

PUBLISHER Northern Living is independently owned, produced and published by Avery Magazines.

As soon as we saw the koala we knew this was it. It is a species that is slowly dying out and one that has received a lot of attention this year as the country fretted over injured and starving animals.

Another form of art reflecting an ancient culture was on display last month at the UniSA Mawson Lakes campus during National Reconciliation Week.

This event started with a smoking ceremony conducted by aboriginal elder Uncle Dookie draped in a kangaroo skin. Northern Living was there to engage with aboriginal art and artefacts, paint our own boomerang, eat yams cooked over a fire pit and enjoy stories from the elders. I took a few photos to show you.

COMMUNITY CONVERSATIONS Population control In 1937 when I was born, the world’s population was 2.3 billion people, carbon in the atmosphere was 280 parts per million and the wilderness was 66 percent coverage. In 2020 the world’s population was 7.8 billion, carbon was 415 parts per million and wilderness covered 35 percent. Before we tackle climate change we need to control the world’s population explosion. Gabriel Politt From 4 to 17 kids Peter Jenkins died last month at the age of 70. From his marriage he had 4 children. When he died he boasted he had 17 grandchildren. This exponential growth of population is selfish and unsustainable for our planet. If this generation wants to safeguard the planet for future generations they should be only reproducing themselves if they wish to have kids (ie 2 children only.) Having more should be shameful, not boastfull. Stephan Mullighane Hoon Crackdown Back in the NL/March issue, Betty Brindly wrote that the cars of hoon drivers should be crushed. Well, Betty, seems like your wish has come true. In SA from this month, dangerous and irresponsible drivers will have their impounded vehicles crushed, sold and melted for scrap if they fail to pay in-full a release fee of $1,135. That should take a few hoons off the road. Luca Pepowyn Parking is chronic I have lived in Mawson Lakes for 20 years. When we built our house in Shoalhaven it was a quiet, green area, but today it is constantly noisy and congested. Most houses have one garage but most residents have 2 or more 4 northern

cars so they park them on the street. Parking is chronic. There are too many apartments, and getting onto Salisbury Highway is dangerous; no wonder there are so many accidents. Elder Smith Road is a nightmare, carrying far more traffic than it was designed for. For these reasons, we are leaving Mawson Lakes. Christine, Shoalhaven Harry Everybody in the Royal Family does their best to support the global community, while Harry is doing the best he can to undermine the Royal Family. If he wants to leave and become a private citizen that’s ok but he needs to take his grievances with him and leave behind his loyalty. Wendy Riessend Modifying behaviour in a vehicle Using a mobile phone while driving is a dangerous activity. Driving a car needs undivided attention, so instead of issuing fines to offenders I suggest manufacturers modify iphones and/or vehicles so that phones cannot function in a vehicle while the engine is switched on. Lindsay McCarthy

From Holden to Hyundai It came as a devastating surprise to us when Holden closed in Australia. It has taken Peter Page Holden many years to adjust and change from Holden to Hyundai, but through all the challenges we never lost sight of the automotive opportunities in the North. I have learnt that when challenges arise, you can work your butt off, but it is people who are the pillars of our success and if you look after your staff, things can turn around. Paul Page, Dealer Principal of Peter Page Hyundai, talking at the Northern Business Breakfast Illegal parking Thank you for informing readers about illegal trespass and parking on council property. I push a pram and often have to walk on the road because cars are parked right across the footpath. I have called the council and they have issued fines. If you see infringements take a photo and send it to the council at city@salisbury.sa.gov.au Sara Frangood

I missed MLL badly during the pandemic. I was so excited to see it back in circulation as Northern Living. I work in the city and always take copies in for my colleagues to read - they all love it too and wish there was a similar community magazine in their suburbs. I’ve collected and kept every copy of the magazine since I moved to Mawson Lakes over 5 years ago.” Loretta Schar with Ziggy

A walk in Mawson Lakes on a winter’s day is a great way to spend time with friends. We stopped off for breakfast at a cafe, then strolled around the main lake before heading off along the railway wetlands where we visited the Northern Living office and picked up copies of the magazine. The sun was out, the water was glistening and the birds were singing - a perfect place to be. Denise from Hillbank, Christine from Mawson Lakes and Lynda from Salisbury

City foxes I often see foxes out hunting for ducklings and scavenging for food. I also see residents leaving household food in the parklands, maybe for the birds. This attracks foxes, rats and cockroaches. Martine Rawson Migratory birds in danger The story about the migratory birds that rest in the Adelaide International Bird Sanctuary (NL/

The St Kilda Mangroves Alliances says mismanagement of the Dry Creek salt field has caused hyper salinity in the water which is a threat to the feeding grounds of the birds. Where else can they go?

COVER STORY

WINNER

EDITOR’S CHOICE WATERSHED CREATIVE PRIZE 2021 Everyone loves a koala with their soft round heads, big furry ears and black leathery noses. Sustainability of koala populations is of concern following devastating bushfires and the destruction of their habitat. Sadly the species is sliding towards extinction. It is the reason I was drawn to this beautiful painting of the koala for the cover of Northern Living this month. This painting won my Editor’s Choice Award. It was an entry in the 2021 Watershed Creative Prize. The paining titled 'Home Among The Gumtrees’ was entered by artist Carol Scholich. She said she decided to paint a koala because it represents a national emblem and there is strong community concern for koala livelihood and habitat protection. The cuddly little animal is a native to Australia and can only be found in small pockets where

the gum leaves are just right for its fussy diet. Surprisingly, I have spotted koalas in trees in Mawson Lakes. Carol's koala has an adorable face with expressive eyes. She says she is always experimenting with new techniques for her paintings.

“On this canvas I used a layering technique starting with a kitchen paper towel for texture, then adding layers of acrylic paint and experimenting with different colours." Carol exhibits in art shows around SA. She particularly likes painting animals and her work is for sale. She can be contacted on 0420 296 903. ED

SHIFT FROM BLUE COLLAR WORKERS TO HIGH TECH IN THE NORTH State government modelling says that 95 percent of land earmarked for further industrial rezoning is located in the outer north region. This is expected to account for 22 percent of new jobs created in industrial areas over the next decade. Affordable land and the new road networks are creating massive demand, according to real estate agents. The recently completed Northern Expressway and Northern Connector are critical pieces of freight infrastructure and trade gateways. Much of the outer north suitable for industrial zoning lies in the Greater Edinburgh Parks precinct near Edinburgh RAAF base.CHAIRMAN’S LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

The former Holden site, now known as Lionsgate, is seeing a shift from blue collar jobs to a more diverse range of work including advanced manufacturing and high tech industries.

High tech industries are expanding. For example, Mawson Lakes company, Codan, has just bought US-based technology provider, Domo Tactical Communications (DTC) for more than $100 million. SA Minister for Innovation and Skills, David Pisoni, says that opportunities for business to employ apprentices and trainers has never been better with many government incentives and wage subsidies available to employers. “Good training is the biggest key to success,” he said. ED

Manufacturers in the region are developing and producing goods as diverse as water recycling equipment, solar panels, cars and automotive parts, agricultural equipment, health and medical devices, defence equipment, consumer electronics, building materials and mining supplies. COVID-19 has impacted our business in many ways but I don’t intend to dwell on this issue. Rather, we are focussing on adjusting our business to ensure that we continue to deliver strong results. We will have a much better view on the year ahead by the time the AGM comes around. Donald has provided some real insights into each of our business units in his report. From the board’s perspective, the most pleasing aspect of our result is that it was the most balanced that we have ever achieved.

Within Minelab, Recreation and Countermine are making steady progress towards achieving $100 million in turnover in these two markets alone. The days of our Minelab business being completely dominated by Gold Mining sales are now distant. That said, the Minelab Gold Mining business had another outstanding year as we again extended our product offering. Product range and geographic market extensions will continue to be the cornerstones of success for Minelab. High levels of investment in R&D and new product development to ensure that Minelab remains the global market leader in metal detection products is an easy decision. It was really pleasing to see that the hard work put into reshaping our Tactical Communications business paid off during the year. We are now very much a communications solutions provider with a strong focus on interoperability. The record sales achieved in this division meant that Tactical Communications was a strong contributor to our results. Next year we fully expect that our LMR division will further deliver on its systems sales strategy, so that it too will become an important part of a balanced portfolio of businesses that is Codan today.

You will note that we have revised the content of our Remuneration Report this year. Hopefully this will help shareholders to better understand this important but complex area of our business. Given that the FY21 year will present a number of unique challenges, we will be taking a slightly different approach to short-term incentives for the executive team this year. I will provide further details at the AGM.

MINDSET FOR LIFE PROGRAM

Arturo and Mary Jimenea, of Parafield Gardens, completed the Mindset for Life program in 2020.

The couple found the program helpful in planning, ‘what’s Many of us spend years next?’ ahead of a new phase in their lives. fantasising about what we Mindset for Life program and the discussions at the will do when we are retired, “The workshops opened our minds to the multitude of opportunities but in reality it can often be available to people in retirement,” said Mary. challenging to work out what “I am now looking at changing matters to you and what you habits of my life and exploring more should do with your time. A free program, Mindset for Life, has been developed to assist people in navigating retirement and answering these important questions. The program uses a peer model to help people design a successful retirement and to plan the next phase of their lives. On completion, participants will have a greater sense of their own skills, abilities and priorities; a renewed vision of their future; and an achievable plan to get them moving in their chosen direction. Arturo and Mary Jimenea, of Parafield Gardens, completed the program in 2020. Mary has just retired from work and Arturo has transitioned from working full time to part time.

of my interests, that is no longer just sedentary reading of books, but also doing more physical activities such as backyard gardening and participating in group exercises in order to maintain my physical and mental well-being.” The Mindset for Life program was developed by Think Human, The Australian Centre for Social Innovation and the State Government Office of Ageing Well. The program is being delivered across 3 three-hour blocks during August at the Jack Young Centre in Salisbury.

A meet and greet information session is planned for Tuesday, July 13 at 2pm at Jack Young Centre, 2 Orange Avenue, Salisbury.

Rubbish collection adding to council’s costs Demand for hard rubbish collection has more than doubled in the Salisbury Council area, from 380 calls a month to more than 800. Costs for collection have increased dramatically in the last three years to the point where rates may have to go up. Recycling authority NAWMA administered by Salisbury, Playford and Gawler Councils predicted

www.northernliving.info

the figure for collection would increase to $1.3 million next financial year. Councils say that hard rubbish collection is a service that people value and it helps combat illegal dumping. The increase is likely due to population growth and house and yard cleanups when residents were at home during covid restrictions.

HELLO, BUT NO GOODBYE ‘Niinamarni' is the aboriginal word for Hello as told by Uncle Dookie at the National Reconciliation event hosted by UniSA on the Mawson Lakes campus. “Aboriginal people don’t have a word for goodbye, rather they have a word for ‘see you later.’

Aboriginal culture was on display at the event so people could engage with indigenous practices and wisdom. Elders told stories and demonstrated artefacts and how they are made. The event started with a smoking ceremony which Uncle Dookie said brings good spirits together and sends bad spirits away. Kaurna traditional land stretches from Mt Lofty in the Hills to Crystal Brook in the north and Cape Jarvis in the south. ED

PETS CORNER FINDING MY PAWS Hey! I am Ivy the chihuahua, and I am new to Mawson Lakes. My new parents fostered me for a little while, and before I knew it, I was part of the family – I am what they call a “foster fail”. I am 16 years young and have been around for a very long time. I like to say I am retired, and what a beautiful place to do so. Moving to a new home can be overwhelming, and it is always difficult to find your feet. There are specific guidelines that everyone must get used to, even dogs! When walking dogs in the Salisbury and Mawson Lakes area, there are many parks and reserves where we can only be walked on a leash before 8am and after 6:30pm. However, some are available for off-leash activity

by Ivy

between 6:30pm and 8am, for well-behaved dogs who come when they are called! So always remember to check for any park rules and regulations when entering these spaces, and ensure your furry friends play sensibly for their own safety and others around you.

Ivy the “foster fail” is 16 years young & enjoying retirement in Mawson Lakes good to ask before you enter. With an abundance of green open spaces, walking trails, and plenty of canine buddies to play-date with, does one ever need an excuse for an adventure with their favourite furry friend?

My parents take me on lots of pawsome trails and my favourite place to walk to is the lake. The signs say to feed the ducks grapes and lettuce, but we have not had much luck with the lettuce!

So, if you are new to the area, grab the leash and head out for a stroll to explore what Mawson Lakes and Salisbury have to offer.

You will pass lots of cafes and shops on your walks, some embrace us four-legged pals, but it is always

THE NEW MAWSON LAKES FOOTBRIDGE IN SHOALHAVEN

USEFUL NUMBERS

NEW MAWSON LAKES FOOTBRIDGE NOW COMPLETE Council, in partnership with the Department for Infrastructure and Transport (DIT), have been working on the Gawler Greenway project which links Adelaide through to Gawler, north/ south through Salisbury with a network of primarily off road cycle/pedestrian shared use paths. The project in total is joint funded, with the bridge being the last component. The new bridge across Dry Creek is located in the Shoalhaven estate of Mawson Lakes and connects the Mawson Lakes Interchange to the southern side of Dry Creek. It serves a number of purposes: 1. It will ultimately provide a critical link for the Gawler Greenway south, under Port Wakefield Road connecting into the Port Adelaide Bike Network, which currently travels in a less permanent route, and on-road along the Salisbury Highway.

2. It completes a critical link from Council’s own Green Trails to the Mawson Lakes Interchange.
