2017 Longman Volunteer Awards
WORDS: Susan Lamb MP
Last month, the Federal Member for Longman, Susan Lamb MP, hosted the 2017 Longman Volunteer Awards Night at Dakabin State High School. The Federal Member for Longman held the event to recognise the outstanding contribution that volunteers have made to the community in Longman. In announcing the 2017 Longman Volunteer of the Year Award, Ms Lamb said, “Awarding just one volunteer is like being asked to pick your favourite child. “However, this year’s Longman Volunteer of the Year Award went to an individual whose tireless work covers many years. Our community regards her as a local leader and champion for the difference that she has made to many people’s lives during difficult times. Congratulations to Nell Baker and thank you for the important work that you do with the Bribie-Moreton Hospice Health Service. “I’d also like to extend my appreciation to Dakabin State High School for generously providing us with the use of their hall and to Teacher Sarah Walsh for assisting with coordination of the event. “Thank you to the wonderful hospitality and music students who volunteered their time to provide catering and entertainment for the event. Some of the students were able to fulfill competencies for their hospitality qualification and others were able to build confidence in the arts by performing for the audience. “Students and staff made every effort to ensure that the event proceedings were carried out in an extremely professional manner,” Ms Lamb concluded.

University Precinct Wins Awards
WORDS AND ARTIST IMPRESSION: Moreton Bay Regional Council
Moreton Bay Region’s University Precinct has been awarded Australia’s Best Planning Idea alongside national recognition for council’s planning department at the 2017 National Planning Excellence Awards. Mayor Allan Sutherland said Moreton Bay Regional Council had secured top honours at the 2017 National Planning Excellence Awards including Australia’s Best Planning Idea - Large Project and Australia’s Best Planner. “The former Petrie paper mill site is being transformed by this council into a bustling new precinct expected to generate up to $950 million in economic benefit, 6,000 ongoing jobs and 10,000 university student placements,” Mayor Sutherland said. “Known as THE MILL at Moreton Bay, this region-building project will feature a major new University of the Sunshine Coast campus, onsite train station at Petrie, and a range of impressive community, sporting and business facilities.”
Council’s spokesperson for Planning and Development, Councillor Mick Gillam, congratulated council’s planning department for winning two national awards at the 2017 National Planning Excellence Awards ceremony held in Sydney on May 3. “Council’s Manager of Strategic Planning and Economic Development, Kate Isles, also took out the Australian Planner of the Year Award for 2017,” Cr Gillam said. “Kate is renowned for her passion, drive and determination to make a difference and get the best possible outcomes for our local community, and we couldn’t be prouder of her receiving this type of national recognition. “She has held a range of positions within the planning industry, most notably as the Queensland President and a board director of the Planning Institute of Australia, and is currently on the board of the Queensland Reconstruction Authority.
“Right now, Kate is spearheading THE MILL at Moreton Bay project alongside council’s Director of Planning and Economic Development, Stewart Pentland, to drive world-class planning outcomes on site for our community.” Cr Gillam said since joining council in 2015, Kate has led a number of significant reforms to make council more customer-focused and encouraged more face-to-face contact between council’s town planners and the community. “She has spearheaded Moreton Bay’s first region-wide planning scheme, a pilot master plan and activation strategy for the Redcliffe foreshore area, reviewing the proposed development of Caboolture West, and new customer service charter for council’s planning department.”

New Affordable Living Development WORDS: Kristine Lane ARTIST IMPRESSIONS: Contributed
When they donated the $2.5 million land in December 2016, it was with the aim to directly assist struggling local families. Ian says, “Initially, we were going to develop the land ourselves, but discovered that it would be more cost effective if we donated it instead. By lowering the cost of the project development, it would make rents more affordable for the disadvantaged.”
Thanks to the generous donation of a two acre piece of land by a local couple, Kallangur’s lowincome residents will soon have access to affordable housing. Ian and Neva Handy are the foresighted philanthropists who have bequeathed a 9,027m² block of land at 117-123 Duffield Road, Kallangur to Churches of Christ Housing Services, to be developed into 50 townhouses for local families and individuals struggling to enter the current rental market. With an expected completion date of October 2017, this much-needed housing project will help boost the need for hard-working and deserving Kallangur residents who wish to stay in the area, but are unable to afford to do so. The $10.5 million development will consist of a mixture of energy efficient and architecturally-designed one, two and three bedroom apartments targeted at ‘key workers employed across the retail, financial and community services, seniors, people living with a disability and those on low to moderate incomes who will receive a discount on the prevailing market rents’, according to Churches of Christ.
Within the complex, residents will have access to a community lounge space including a kitchen and an outside play facilities for children, as well as the Churches of Christ in Queensland’s Community Chaplaincy program and home and community care services. The entire project, whilst built by National Construction Management, has been completely funded by the not-
for-profit Churches of Christ, and will be wholly owned and managed by them. Communications and Media Manager, Steven Henderson says, “There will be income thresholds established for applicants to ensure that the new project attracts those who would benefit from an affordable living product, notably those who are paying more than 30% of their income in rent.”
Long-time members and Deacons of Kallangur’s Rivers Church of Christ, owners of Greenstock Nurseries in Elimbah, and running their own charitable organisation, the Handy Family Foundation, it is clear that caring and nurture is very much a part of Ian’s and Neva’s make-up. “We personally know people who have housing difficulties and cannot afford regular rents, so we want to see people in need have cheaper housing.” With their community generosity being recognised by media outlets further afield such as Channel Nine’s Today Show and ABC Radio, these modern day philanthropists are nothing short of local heroes.
New Sports Club Provides Courtesy Bus for Kallangur Members Residents of Kallangur, Dakabin, Petrie, Murrumba Downs and Griffin can now access a doorto-door courtesy bus service for the North Lakes Sports Club - the first licensed club to be constructed on a greenfield site in almost 20 years.
“Banyan Restaurant & Deck provides a dining experience that is a step up from the traditional club fare, with a modern Australian menu that combines ingredients sourced from across the local region,” said Mr Satori.
The service is free for North Lakes Sports Club members and operates seven days a week. Members can also have their guests travel free with them on condition that the address provided is the member’s registered address.
“The menu includes signature steaks from the Sunshine Coast hinterland, seafood from the Moreton Bay region as well as ingredients sourced from some of Australia’s leading producers.
There are two routes for the area, enabling members in Kallangur and surrounding areas to travel on either the West Area service or the All Areas service, with timetables and maps available online via www.northlakessports.com.au/ courtesy-bus. North Lakes Sports Club General Manager, Chris Sartori, revealed details of some of the key food and beverage offers including a full service, casual dining restaurant ‘Banyan’ named after the Moreton Bay fig tree.

“While we offer full table service in our restaurant, we are focused on delivering a relaxed, casual dining experience that is family friendly and caters to our members and guests.” In addition to the Banyan Restaurant & Deck, the Club also operates a café and four bars, including a craft beer offer with six craft beers on tap. The 3,200m² facility also includes 178 of the latest gaming machines, a UBET TAB and sports lounge, fully supervised kids club, entertainment and function facilities.
Music
It’s All About Soul WORDS AND PHOTO: Alex Habilay
There once was a band that played a Blues Brothers tribute show, but what happens when you outshine the ‘tribute’ mantle? Allow me to introduce you to The Soul Men. A big band comprised of four players in the rhythm section, three in the brass section and three dynamic vocalists, The Soul Men energise the stage with a mixture of dance, laughter and the kind of tunes that’ll make you mourn what music once was. Like all great things, it had to start somewhere. Jump back almost two decades, and you may have encountered a young Greg Hill auditioning for Universal Studios’ ‘The Blues Brothers Show’. Rolling into the open audition at Universal Studios Japan in 2001, Greg’s motorcycle and slicked-back hair disguising his performing arts background. His leather jacket and torn jeans couldn’t do much to hide his stellar voice however, and after jolting the judges to life and melting their expectations, Greg was no longer a James-Dean-looking kid from Australia; he was Jake Blues. Two years passed and Greg – failing to suppress his performing arts passion – left Universal Studios filled with the inspiration to, “assemble a big band to bring The Blues Brothers to life.” After a buzz on his phone and a question taken straight from the film, “Have you got the band back together?” Jake and Elwood hit the stage to entertain a huge corporate crowd at the 5-star Sofitel Grand Ballroom in Brisbane. The Blues Brothers had punters shaking their tail feathers, and though it was their debut gig, it was pretty clear these two were on a mission. The brothers quickly earned notches on their belts as they performed at countless charity events and festivals including Kids with Cancer, Flood Relief, and Mitchell Creek Rock ‘N’ Blues Fest. With every gig the band acquired more members, until they reached the full quotient of ten musicians to present The Blues Brothers as faithfully as possible. With Malcom ‘The Major’ Bell leading the band on drums, his son Damian ‘The Minor’ Bell on bass guitar, Andrew ‘The Kid’
Fincher smashing the keys like no other and Travis ‘T.J’ Earsman shredding the lead guitar, this rhythm section has its mojo going on. And with the talented Brad ‘Mad Dog’ Scriven on sax, Dan ‘The Code Breaker’ Brown on trumpet and Andy ‘The Bones’ Troy on trombone, this horn section is really taking care of business. Playing Elwood to Greg’s Jake is renowned singer and harmonicawizard Brent Moetara, and in the role of vocal powerhouse, Mrs Murphy, is the incomparable Asabi Goodman. With the band back together, the choreography spirited and the jokes loaded, the only thing the band needed was a pair of wheels. In true Blues Brothers fashion, Greg acquired a ’77 Fairlane fully-loaded with a Cleveland 351 and transformed it into the Blues Mobile. Greg stayed so true to the beast, that he hid the stereo inside the glove box, just so they could keep it ‘original’ whilst blasting the tunes when cruising. The Soul Men aren’t just a tribute act; they’re a time-machine to an era where dropping the bass actually meant dropping your bass guitar. You won’t find an act like this anywhere, so shake a tail feather and go catch them live. Saturday, June 3 @ 7.30pm, Norths Leagues Club FREE show for members

ASHLEY STODDART Representing Australia in Laser Radial Sailing.
WORDS: Melina Simpson PHOTO: Contributed by World Sailing
10
Feature As a young girl, Ashley Stoddart would beg her parents, Scott and Debbie, to let her go sailing. Her older brother was competing, and there was no way she wanted to miss out. Fast forward to 2017 and Ashley is one of Australia’s best – and one of three recipients of this year’s Dickson Youth Sports Achievement Awards. Each year on Australia Day, the federal electorate of Dickson presents its annual Dickson Community Awards. The awards recognise people who, through volunteer work or contributions above and beyond their normal activities, have made our community a better place. Ashley received her award for her continued efforts in representing Australia in the Olympic sport of Laser Radial sailing. With sailing a focal point of her family’s weekends, it wasn’t long before it became Ashley’s passion. “I jumped into Laser Radial in 2007,” said Ashley. “In 2008, I competed in the Radial Youth World Championships in New Zealand. I came away as Under 17 World Champion.” Her success as a junior continued with top finishes in Brazil in 2008. She completed her first Open European circuit in 2011 and went on to qualify for her first Open World Cup Event – a promising lead up to Olympic Class racing, a dream Ashley was inspired to chase after watching Australian girls bring home gold at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. “I was so excited to see them win,” she recalled, “and I knew I had it in me to go after it for myself. So when Rio was selected as the host for the 2016 Olympics, I knew I wanted to be there.” Not only did Ashley qualify for the Rio Olympics, she finished ninth overall, with a strong third place in the medal race. Like other Olympic boat events, Laser Radial consists of up to 15 races in a series. The aim is to test athletes under a wide variety of conditions, culminating in the top 10 battling it out in the medal race, which is worth double points and makes for an exciting finish to the event.
While the courses in Rio and also France provided Ashley with diverse conditions and spectacular backdrops, it’s ultimately the warm waters of Australia where she is most comfortable, and after years of travelling overseas, nothing beats being in her home country doing what she loves. To attain and maintain an elite level requires a high level of commitment, and Ashley realises that while it’s one thing to have passion, another level is needed to turn goals into reality. “You have to wake up every single day and make a choice to work hard and be smart with your training,” she explained. “For me, I do hours on the water each week, and then many hours in the gym. Sailing a Laser is a highly physical boat, and sailing has been compared to a chess game. However, it’s like a next level chess game, where you are making tactical decisions under a physical load.” Ashley values every member of her support staff, spanning a network of family and friends, coaches and the local community. Without them, her road to success would be infinitely tougher, which makes winning a Dickson Youth Sport Award even more special. “It was an honour to receive the Dickson Youth Sports Award,” Ashley enthused. “It’s a lovely way to be recognised, but what I enjoyed even more was seeing my parents receive the award on my behalf and have some much-deserved recognition of their own!” With more women than ever before competing at elite level sport, Ashley is very excited to inspire other girls to achieve their sporting goals. She is very supportive of women pushing for equal Olympic representation, and is particularly encouraged by the number of girls loving their sailing. “I enjoy getting out on the water coaching, talking and inspiring them with my experiences and journey so far.”

Simple Ways to Makeover Your Bathroom this Season
The bathroom is a very important part of your home. You spend a lot more time in this room than you might realise, and it is probably one of the first things you pay attention to when you start your morning routine every day. Why not make your bathroom something you enjoy looking at so often? Try out these tips to makeover your bathroom and give it a fresh appearance at the start of the new season.
WORDS: Oxmar Properties
Hang a Bigger Mirror A big mirror can make any space look larger, and if you have enough room on your bathroom wall, changing your mirror to something larger can really make the room seem light and airy. Since most bathrooms do not have much of any window lighting, this can do wonders for a dark, cramped room. Change the Towels Do you keep your towels hanging on a towel rack or otherwise displayed in your bathroom? If so, all you need to do is make a simple towel switch and pick different colors to bring about a change. If you do not feel like devoting the time or money to repainting the whole room, a color swap for your bathroom accessories can freshen up the area significantly.
Bring in Storage If your bathroom does not have a lot of storage space, you can bring in small wicker baskets or other unique storage containers to keep items from cluttering up the sink and other areas around the room. Although this may not change the design of the bathroom too much, it can help you clean up the space and make it look nicer overall. Use Glass Jars Store your bathroom items like soap, cotton, and other essentials in pretty glass jars. Set them on your bathroom counter or on a small table to keep them safe from the humidity that tends to build up in bathrooms, and make them work as part of the dĂŠcor at the same time. If you have a spare jar, use it to house a small plant to help liven up the space even more. When your bathroom needs sprucing up, these tips can give you a great head start toward making it look like the bathroom of your dreams. You do not have to spend a lot of money to make your bathroom look beautiful, and you are sure to be satisfied with your new creation when you keep these suggestions in mind.

Ageing Wisely
Seniors
WORDS: Kerri-Anne Dooley
As we age, there are plenty of opportunities and challenges presented with the ageing process. Our bodies aren’t created to live forever, and they start to fade or break down. Eyesight, hearing, bone aches and pains, arthritis, heart disease, back pains and the list goes on. To help take the focus off our ailing bodies, it’s good to turn our focus onto others. Whether retired or semi-retired or still working, giving back to the community by volunteering or mentoring is a wonderful way to channel experience and life skills learnt along the journey of life. I recently attended a Breakfast of Champions where
community issues were raised and then solutions brainstormed. One issue raised was the growing number of young boys living without strong positive male role models in their lives due to family breakdown or absent fathers due to various reasons. Finding positive role models is so important in life, whether male or female. How do we marry the experience and wisdom of our senior Australians with gaps in positive role models for our younger ones? This creates a beautiful opportunity for casual or formal mentoring. Look for these opportunities in your community and your neighbourhood.

Furniture Specialist Celebrates! Local and independent family business, A1 New Furniture and Bedding, celebrates their sixth birthday this year. Established in 2011 as A1 Furniture Clearance Centre, this iconic Kallangur brand has transformed from a small ‘clearance line’ store to a reputable stockist with a large, quality selection at great prices. With over thirty years combined experience in the furniture and bedding industry, the A1 team have served thousands of customers within the local area, Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast and out towards Toowoomba. “We felt there was a need for a store with a large range of quality timber furniture at affordable prices,” said Owner/Manager, Mr Brian Cutajar. “Our team are experts in all aspects of mattresses, bedding and furniture, and provide a high level of personal customer service and experience.” The business was motivated to expand into larger premises due to the growth experienced from 2011-2013. The old Mitre 10 Hardware store was an ideal venue, and after a little upgrade, now houses thousands of items of furniture. “With over 800m² of floor space, it is easy to view a great range of furniture, bedding and mattresses on our showroom floor,” said Mr Cutajar.
14
“If you can’t find what you are looking for on the floor, we have many more options in our suppliers’ catalogues that can be custom ordered. We also now stock a selection of whitegoods making the store a one stop furniture shop.” With ample parking, interest free payments via Certegy Ezi-Pay and a friendly, experienced team consisting of local residents, A1 Furniture and Bedding do not shy away from competing with the larger chain stores as they pride themselves on repeat customers and referrals. They even provide a delivery service! If you are in the market for larger household items, make sure you stop by to view the vast range at this local provider and say happy birthday to the team.
Real Estate Water Charging and Investment Properties When you can and can’t charge your tenants for water usage WORDS: Lisa Black, Ray White Kallangur
A lot of investors are confused about water charging or don’t understand how they can go about it, and so miss out on the opportunity for additional revenue. You can charge your tenants if your property is individually metered, the rental premises are water efficient, and if the tenancy agreement states that the tenant must pay for their water consumption. To find out if your property is water efficient, you can appoint a licensed plumber to attend your property and conduct a water efficiency test in line with the Residential Tenancies Act requirements. The total cost for your plumbing report should be around $110.00. If your property complies with water efficiency standards, it will have a minimum of three stars or more as a Water Efficiency Labelling (WELS) rating and meet the following criteria:
If your property does not meet WELS standards, you can ask a plumber to quote and upgrade your facilities before you make your decision to charge water usage or not.
Low-flow shower heads using a maximum of 9 litres per minute Dual flush toilet not exceeding approximately 6.5 litres on full flush and 3.5 litres on half flush. Internal cold water taps with a flow rate of 9 litres per minute (excluding bath tub)
With relation to tenant invoicing, landlords are not able to pass on the costs for sewerage access and fixed access charges. These costs must be borne by the property owner. You can charge tenants for the cost of state bulk water and add that to the cost of the variable usage charges. These two expenses added together equate to your cost per kilolitre (kL) which is billable to your tenant.
Once your property is deemed to be water efficient and you have met all other obligations, you can now charge water usage by the kilolitre (kL) as per the current Unitywater rate. The plumber will have read and recorded the current water meter reading for you, and this is your starting point for your first invoice to the tenant.
Your tenant will have 30 days to make payment of their water invoice in full, either to your rental agent or into your account as the private landlord/property owner. It is not uncommon for tenants to request a copy of your Unitywater bill, and it is best practice to do so as it will minimise any disputes regarding water usage calculations.

10 Tips for Nailing Your Resume WORDS: Trish Evans, Solution Focused Consulting
While your resume isn’t going to get you a job, it goes a long way towards getting you that interview. Resume writing has changed a lot over the years, and what would have been perfectly acceptable 10 years ago, no longer works.
Trish Evans is a professional Career Adviser and CEO of Solution Focused Consulting. She can help with all your work related challenges – from resume and cover letter writing to interview coaching and career advice. Ph. 0408 732 579 or visit www. solutions4work. com.au.
1.
Type your name in a large bold font – 18-20 works well – make it stand out.
2.
Include your mobile number and email address (street address not required – unless applying for a job about five minutes from home, then put the suburb).
3.
Profile/Summary/Overview: this is the most important paragraph of the document – it’s the first thing employers will read, and it’s what will encourage them to read the rest of the document. This is where you “sell” yourself.
4.
Add a section below the profile for your key skills in bullet points – make sure these align with the job being applied for.
5.
Education/Qualifications: most relevant first – if not relevant to the job, there isn’t much point adding them e.g. if you are applying for a job as an administration officer, your Certificate III in child care has no value at all.
6.
Employment history: most recent first – state the name of the company, your position and the dates (months and years) you were employed.
7.
There’s no need to list every little thing you did at the company – just half a dozen of the most important tasks – particularly those relevant to the job you’re applying for.
8.
Achievements: employers love achievements – the idea being that whatever wonderful thing you did for a previous employer, you will do for the next one. If you’ve saved time/money/streamlined processes/got great feedback etc. this is the time to let them know. For example: through my sourcing of less expensive stationery items, the company saved $20 per month.
9.
Additional information: if you’ve volunteered list that in this section – employers like to know if you are a community-minded person. If you have a blue card, positive police check, driver’s licence, own vehicle etc. let them know here.
10. Referees: two or three referees are ideal. Ensure you have checked that the referees listed are still happy to be used as a referee. If you haven’t worked in a while (or never), consider asking a place where you’ve volunteered if they are happy to act as a referee – maybe someone at the school tuckshop etc. If you attend a local church, would the pastor be a character referee? If you’ve done a course, how about asking your trainer? You could even ask your Job Active consultant if they would give you a reference. That at least shows you turn up on time and do what’s asked of you.
Parents Returning to Work WORDS: Trish Evans, Solution Focused Consulting Burpengary
It’s the day you have been dreaming of (or dreading). Your youngest child has started school and you’re ready to take the plunge back into the workforce. For some, this is an exciting time as they begin the job-hunting journey, while for others it’s the start of a nightmare. Feeling fear is completely understandable. We’ve all heard how tough the labour market is, but the good news is that as a parent, you will have many transferable skills. Parenting requires time management, budgeting, problem solving and conflict management – valuable skills to any employer. Some industries offer greater flexibility than others for working parents. These include aged, disability or child care and personal training. There are also unusual sounding jobs that offer flexible hours, such as merchandising and lead generating. By looking online for part time jobs with no other search criteria other than the location, you may find many jobs you haven’t previously considered. While waiting for the right job, why not consider doing a course? There are many Certificate III courses available at minimal cost to approved applicants, and by upskilling, you will gain an advantage over your competitors. If you’re thinking of doing a course, it’s a good idea to check out reviews of the college. There are also
16
a lot of free online courses you could do to upskill in certain areas, and YouTube is a mine of information about how to do almost anything! Volunteering can be a great way to find employment, meet new people, grow your networks, get back into the swing of work, meet potential referees, update your skills and make new friends. Volunteers are often offered paid work when vacancies arise, or you may hear of a vacancy elsewhere through your contacts. Most employers won’t let you take leave for the entire holidays so make a school holiday care plan for your children. Also make contingency plans for if your kids are unwell. It’s okay to take some days off, but if your kids are prone to being sick, it can make things awkward at work. If you haven’t applied for work in a while, have a look at your resume and decide whether it’s up to scratch. It must be modern and current. Cover letters are vital these days, and it’s important to have a well-written one that demonstrates enthusiasm.
Five Essentials for Job Hunters 1 Up-to-date resume This needs to be tweaked for every job you apply for.
2
Well-written cover letter A badly written one will ensure that your application goes straight in the trash.
3
Alternative childcare arrangements If your little one is sick on a work day, the last thing you need is to be rushing around frantically trying to find last minute care.
4
A schedule Juggling work with home duties is difficult for anyone.
5
Develop your networks Often it’s not what you know but who you know when it comes to the job market.

Importance of Parent Teacher Interviews
WORDS: Kristine Lane
How much do you really know about your child? And what they are like in a classroom?
swapped child-rearing stories and wisdom? Through experience and conversation, you learn things.
Parent-teacher interviews can be looked upon by many parents eagerly or with hesitation, particularly after looking at their child’s school report.
Use the same premise with teachers. Many of our educators have fountains of knowledge and experience which can be to your advantage. If there are issues that you are seeing at home, then talking to the teacher can cement these concerns, put them into perspective, but most importantly of all, offer strategies and advice. Conversations between teachers and parents also improve communication, creating that shared journey which is so important in the development of the child. And if problems arise in the future, then you have already built that rapport with them.
Having taught for over 18 years in a high school, I’ve certainly seen my fair share of earnest, awkward, cranky and unsuspecting parents. But the one thing that they all walk away with after a 15 minute consultation about how their child is (or is not) progressing is a better insight into their child’s ability and personality, and a shared interest regarding the development of the child (not to mention their strengths and weaknesses). With the advent of technology these days taking over so much of teenagers’ spare time, parents can often feel as though they have lost contact with their son or daughter, especially once they hit high school. Distance can mean problems are hidden, both socially and academically. So it is imperative that parents try to gain an insight into how they are doing at school. As a parent, you may well deservedly consider yourself hard-working, astute and somewhat involved – confident even when imparting advice to others. How many times in the past few months have you sat with a friend or two over a cuppa and
Children who see their parents rock up to parent-teacher interviews feel more encouraged to do well, and like the fact that their parents care. And perversely, students do eventually appreciate guidelines and boundaries after being caught out for doing something wrong. And finally, just remember, you don’t know everything about your child – you will always learn something new about them by talking to a teacher. And they might even surprise you.

Health
Local Adventures WORDS: Mel Toraya
We are very lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world with some fabulous running, walking and riding tracks on our doorstep. One of my favourite local spots for some outdoor time is Sheepstation Creek Conservation Park off Williamson Road, Upper Caboolture. Only a 10 minute drive from Narangba, this location offers three easy walking trails, parking at the entrance, signs along the way and usually a kangaroo or two. Grey Gum Circuit offers a 4.4km loop, Spotted Gum Trail is 1.2km one way and Ironbark Ridge Trail just 1.1km one way. All are suitable for walking, running and riding mountain bikes, however bear in mind that horse riders share some of the trails. We are also close to the spectacular Glass House Mountains which offer a range of climbs from beginner and youngsters to those a little more experienced. Mt Ngungun (a personal favourite) is classed as a medium level activity and is fairly suitable for most fitness levels. With a well-defined, graded track with some steep sections, it is suitable for all ages and abilities, and offers some amazing views at the top particularly at sunrise and sunset on a clear day. The 2.8km return track can take as short as 20 minutes or a leisurely 90 minutes, and you will usually find company on the climb with weekends being pretty
popular. Access is just over 30 minutes away via the carpark on Fullertons Road. There are two other short but steep climbs all in the same area. Wild Horse Mountain, whilst only a mere 700m, consists of a steep, paved track, with superb views across to Mt Ngungun, Tibrogargan, Mt Beerwah and more at the summit. You can always challenge yourself and go for time, or tackle it more than once in the one visit. At Mt Beerburum (also a short but steep 700m uphill climb) you will travel through a small area of rainforest before being rewarded with amazing views from the fire tower at the top. Mt Tibrogargan is probably the most challenging of the Glass House Mountains, and requires a little bit of skill and fitness to reach the top. For first timers I would recommend going with a friend or someone who has climbed it before. For those who don’t want to brave the uphill climb, you can always opt for the circuit around the base of the mountain which is still a great walk with some beautiful scenery. So next time you are looking for a weekend walk, check some of our local haunts out. Remember to take water and sunscreen, and it’s always handy to have some insect repellent on hand. Happy climbing and I look forward to seeing you on a mountain!

Physiotherapy and the Pelvic Floor WORDS: Moreton All Body Care
Women can experience many issues associated with childbearing and birth some of which don’t become apparent until years after the children have left the nest. But, did you know that physiotherapy may be able to help? Some of the issues that may arise during or after childbearing usually involve a dysfunction of the pelvic floor muscles. The pelvic floor is a complex network of muscle and fascia tissue that forms a ‘sling’ underneath the pelvis. This structure acts like a hammock to hold up the pelvic organs and maintain closure of the openings. This is one of the main structures involved with maintaining the position of the pelvic organs and maintaining continence. With time, the pelvic floor can become stretched and weak. This can be aggravated by childbearing and birth due to the extra strain on the pelvic floor. Hormones also can exacerbate pelvic floor issues, particularly due to low oestrogen levels (i.e. when breastfeeding and in postmenopause). However, women who haven’t had children can also experience pelvic floor dysfunction. Activities such as repetitive heavy lifting, chronic lung conditions with repetitive coughing and even chronic constipation can eventually lead to lengthening and weakness of the pelvic floor. Weakness and dysfunction of the pelvic floor muscles can lead to issues with bladder and bowel function. These issues can include:
18
•
Stress incontinence: the leakage of urine when performing high pressure activities such as coughing, sneezing, lifting and laughing.
•
Urgency: the sudden onset of a strong urge to go to the bathroom - an urge that you cannot delay.
•
Constipation: normal frequency of passing a bowel motion can range anywhere from three times a day to once every three days. However, strain should be minimal.
•
Faecal/wind incontinence: this is the inability to control when you pass a bowel motion or wind. This is the issue that people feel least comfortable with explaining to their health practitioner, but it is a common problem that can be managed effectively with strengthening exercises.
•
Prolapse: this is when the pelvic floor is unable to hold up the weight of the pelvic organs.
These problems that women experience can be prevented managed with physiotherapy.
may and
How Can Physio Help?
Just like any muscle, pelvic floor muscles need to have adequate power and endurance-strength to do their job probably. A physiotherapist trained in Women’s health will take a thorough history of your symptoms and perform an examination to assess the strength and tone of your pelvic floor muscles. They will then prescribe an exercise program that is tailored to address issues you may be having. Your physiotherapist will also provide lifestyle advice on good bladder and bowel habits to manage pelvic floor dysfunction. If you would like to speak to a Women’s Health Physiotherapist, please call us at Moreton All Body Care on 07 3888 6699 to book an appointment today. Appointments are available Monday and Friday.
Nutrition for Birds
Pets
WORDS: Greencross Vets
Because there are many species of pet birds, there is no single diet that can be used. Some are seed-eaters, some are nectar feeders (e.g. lorikeets), while some eat mainly fruit. It is important to establish exactly what your bird can and will eat. The main mistake birdkeepers make is not feeding a balanced diet. For example, vets often see cockatoos fed solely on sunflower seed, leading to obesity, fatty tumours and liver disorders. Poor nutrition is responsible for many common problems such as moulting disorders, respiratory disease, growth abnormalities, poor reproduction, egg binding and a poor immune system. Rather than go into detail on protein, fat, carbohydrate, vitamin and mineral levels in diets, an owner needs to know how to feed the pet bird. Most pet outlets sell bird seed in the correct ratio of various seeds, but if this is fed as the sole diet, birds will develop vitamin and mineral deficiencies and protein will be too low. There are a few ways to achieve a balanced diet in seed-eating birds: • Offer seed for 10-20 minutes twice a day or overnight then take it away and leave fresh vegetables (carrot, broccoli, silverbeet and spinach), fruits (apple and paw paw) and native nutrients. Please note avocado and cabbage may be toxic. • Feed commercially prepared pellets or diets, which are fully balanced in nutrients. • If birds absolutely refuse to eat new foods, at least ensure that a daily vitamin supplement is given, and try offering a hand-rearing food along with the seed. Several factors to consider: • Birds often fail to recognise new foods as something they can eat. Unlike cats and dogs, texture, shape and size of foods are more important to a bird than smell or taste. New foods need to be introduced gradually, and at a place where the bird expects food to be. • Birds have different food requirements for breeding, moulting, growing and feeding young. • The main diet problem seen in seed-eaters is vitamin A deficiency from having an all seed diet. This leads to many diseases commonly seen in pet birds. • Calcium is a very important mineral to birds, and should always be available in some form e.g. cuttlefish, liquid drops in drinking water or calcium blocks. • Grit and water must be available at all times. • Always note if birds are eating daily. A sick bird will often pretend to eat, and will stay at the food bowl without actually eating its food. With a good diet and a clean cage, at least 50 percent of bird diseases seen by us can be prevented.

Fish of the Month
Native ‘Little Aussies’: The Australian Rainbowfish WORDS: Peter Hansler PHOTOS: Gunther Schmida
Being a “fish enthusiast” from a young age who fished, dove, snorkelled and explored the creeks, rivers and reefs of Central and South East Queensland, I developed a passion (some could and do say an addiction) for the native fish, wildlife and fishing in this region. I now spend my spare time fishing and filming underwater videos of fish and wildlife around the greater Brisbane area, and I look forward to sharing with readers some great local species for the anglers along with some of my favourite native fish in the Greater Brisbane area. The first famous Brisbane local I would like to introduce is “The Crimson Spot Rainbowfish”. There are many types of Rainbowfish in Australia and Papua New Guinea but this is my favourite. A stunning and peaceful addition to any aquarium or outdoor pond, these fish are frog friendly and eat mosquito larvae. These little Aussies are loved throughout the world and kept in aquariums in many countries including Germany, The Netherlands, Austria and USA.
most probably in your favourite swimming hole or duck pond. Their biggest threats are introduced species, pollution and destruction of their habitat. So please remember that protecting our waterways begins at home. A few Crimson Spot Rainbowfish in a pond is all you need to get started as they breed very well in the warmer months. They are easily caught in traps baited with bread and vegemite, and if you are quick enough with a dip net.
Photo: Brisbane’s local Rainbowfish the “Crimson Spot Rainbowfish (Pink Ear) Melanotaenia duboulayi”.
Rainbowfish are found east of the Great Dividing Range in Northern NSW up to Baffle Creek just north of Bundaberg, and can be found in many of our local waterways including the Caboolture River, Pine River, Coochin Creek, Burpengary Creek and

Are You Okay?
WORDS Alex Habilay and Rebecca Fawcett-Smith
He Says: I find peace in the alpaca. The males of the
species have a flawless waste disposal system; defecating in the exact same place, essentially creating a tower of alpaca poop. Meanwhile, the female alpaca will spread her scat from the mountains to the sea. Though we’re not alpacas, we as humans certainly manage our emotions the same way they do their poop. Much like the stoic male alpaca, we men have a tremendous tendency to hoard every emotional ordeal in one place – usually our heads. It usually works, but the tower of scat inevitably topples over into a mess on the floor. Men’s Health Week is the time for all those stoic men out there to make like a female alpaca, and share your problems with the entire paddock. Nobody should be lost because their pile of excrement got too big. This is the week to get the doctor to look at that weird spot, to bring up that one thing that’s been eroding your mind or to just have a brew with a mate. Though I find peace with the alpaca, we shouldn’t match their pooping habits. Use your words humans, talk about it.
The Flipside She Says: Currently, eight people take their life in Australia every day,
and the suicide rate for men is three times higher than for women. All across our lucky country, fathers, husbands, sons, brothers and mates are making the heartbreaking decision that the world is better off without them. This statistic struck painfully close to home only a few months ago when the husband of one of my best friends took his life. He had depression and was being treated for it, was receiving counselling, and suicide had been discussed openly. It was not a taboo subject in their household. Never in her wildest dreams did my friend ever think suicide was a real possibility. They were a team. And yet now, she and their two children find themselves in a world that will never be the same, complete or able to answer the big, burning question, why? How do we reach those who need reaching? A male suicide attempt survivor who featured in an episode of the ABC series ‘You Can’t Ask That’, said that one of the most powerful things someone has said to him since his attempt was a mate simply asking, “How’s your head?” So in the spirit of Men’s Health Week (June 12 – 18) check in with the men in your life. It can be as simple as asking, “How’s your head?” or “Are you okay?” For support call Lifeline on 13 11 14.
