DUBBO CITY LIFE Comment by TIM PANKHURST MANAGING EDITOR

The great divide... between us and them

IF you enjoy crunching numbers, last week’s release of the results of the national Same Sex Marriage survey had some fascinating statistics. As has been widely reported since the announcement, while the nationwide vote was 62 per cent ‘yes’ and 38 per cent ‘no’, when you drill down the results to individual electorates, there were a few that had a majority ‘no’ vote.

It was much closer in the seat of Parkes (which includes Dubbo and Narromine) with 52.7 per cent ‘yes’ to 47.3 per cent ‘no’, while in the seat of Calare (which covers Wellington) it was different again with a 60.2 per cent ‘yes’ vote.

I wonder how many of us realised the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) was tracking our votes so closely? The ballot papers carried an identifier so that the ABS could work out how many yesses and how many no votes were cast in each electorate.

The variation in attitudes to same sex marriage from town to town surprised many.

There was another statistic released during the week that hit home that people in different parts of Australia think differently about different issues. The National Farmers Federation (NFF) conducted a poll to find out the attitudes of city-dwellers to farming, and they confirmed what most of us living in this agriculturally important part of NSW already suspected – 83 per cent of Australians are convinced agriculture and farming have no or little relevance to their lives.

The majority describe their connection with farming as “distant” or “non-existent”, and half admitted they don’t have any interest in farming at all.

Only 4 per cent of Australians correctly identified agriculture as the fastest-growing sector of the Australian economy, while fewer than half had met or talked to a farmer in the past year, The Australian reported.

Nowhere is the great divide between city and country more evident than in those numbers.

The agricultural survey results were released in the lead up to National Agriculture Day, which was held on Tuesday this week. Member for Parkes Mark Coulton is one of the “4 per cent”. He pointed out this week that Australian agricultural production exceeded $60 billion for the first time in 2016-17.

“Agriculture and affiliated industries also provide jobs to about 12 million Australians,” Mr Coulton added.

The NFF implemented National Agriculture Day in an effort to highlight to all Australians the huge role that primary producers and their support industries play in this country. Sadly, a single day could well get lost in amongst all the other ‘special days’ held to promote charities or highlight special causes.

Just imagine for a moment if Australia’s agricultural sector decided to go ‘on strike’.

Stop producing for a while. It wouldn’t take very long for the lives of everyone in Sydney to go downhill dramatically. Just about every aspect of their lives would be altered for the worst – not just the food they eat and the clothes they wear, but arguably everything they do and come into contact with in everyday life has farming as its starting point.

That’s why it’s called “primary” production. Primary producers produce the first thing in the supply chain for most of our daily lives.

But it’s not in the typical farmer’s psyche to even contemplate a ‘strike’, so instead each of us needs to be an ambassador for farmers. Tell the world just how vital they are to our everyday lives.

When you consider this final statistic, we should dress our primary producers

in superhero outfits: NFF president Fiona Simson said Australia’s agricultural sector grew at a phenomenal rate of 23 per cent last year and single-handedly prevented the Australian economy from reversing into recession over the previous two quarters.

Thank a farmer for that.

“Twas the Week After Christmas” THERE’S a great afternoon of entertainment happening at the Macquarie Conservatorium this Sunday, November 26, at 4pm.

“Twas the Week After Christmas” offers lots of laughs and is the season finale for the Macquarie Conservatorium’s Youth Musical Theatre. Hang on to your Santa hats for this musical production featuring top performances from all the primary-aged children.

“The North Pole has lost its Christmas spirit. It’s been years since the elves and reindeer have gotten along and this has resulted in only a 60 per cent success rate in present delivery this year,” the blurb for the show goes. “Will a holiday in the sun help remind them what Christmas is really all about?”

Sounds like good fun! Tickets are $5.

Contact the Macquarie Conservatorium for more details.

- Until next week, Keep Smiling!

It was hard to get a good tradie back then I MENTIONED here last week that the floor inside St Brigid’s Church hall has had to be removed. Natalie Holmes has followed this story up and her detailed report is in today’s paper.

She’s even tracked down a brief history of St Brigid’s – apparently it’s early days were marred by not one but two tradespeople shooting through before their work on the building had been done.

Thankfully, the job being done in 2017 is safe and sound in the hands of good tradies who at time of writing were close to completing the job of putting the new floor down.

Share the Dignity

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

SOMETIMES in the noise of Christmas shopping frenzies, it’s easy to forget the real point to the celebration.

Giving and receiving is great but for so many people the pressure to shop, shop and shop is taking the lustre out of the experience.

It’s not going to stop any time soon, but there is something that can lift your spirits knowing you’re making a difference.

Women’s charity “Share the Dignity� is running a national campaign called “It’s In The Bag�. It’s about making life genuinely better for a woman or girl experiencing homelessness or poverty at Christmas.

By simply providing everyday luxuries and personal hygiene products to women at risk, it sends a twofold message: someone cares and be strong.

To participate is simple.

Dubbo has local volunteers who have created donation boxes so keep an eye on these around town.

Take a hand bag in good condition and fill it with items that would make a woman feel special.

The little things. Things you can’t live without. A bit of lippy, some hand moisturiser; whatever you feel takes the edge off a hard day for you will have the same effect for a mum without a roof over her head or money to spend on her kids at Christmas, let alone herself.

Basics like shampoo, conditioner, toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, deodorant, sanitary items.

You probably would think ‘so what’ to get these things at Christmas; they’re so every day, but for thousands of women the basics are all they wish for.

Quotes from recipients include: “Knowing that this bag was put together by a person who cares about me, gives me hope that things will get better in my life one day.�

And another: “It’s not the bag or even the contents, it’s knowing that someone thinks I am worthy.�

Imagine. Genuinely being able to give someone a sense of self-worth for Christmas?

There’s nothing worse than waking on Christmas Day, alone, afraid, destitute. Marketing images of Christmas are so wholesome and family oriented and EVERYWHERE, that if your life or family setting doesn’t align with those images and expectations, it isn’t far to the bottom of despair.

To experience real joy at Christmas, give to someone who actually needs a gift.

You can include a thoughtful note or Christmas card. Though you won’t see or meet the recipient, it is possibly the most meaningful and appreciated gift you will give.

When you can give someone a hairbrush and they don’t just say thanks but tell you they’ll cherish it forever, that’s the moment when you will really feel the Christmas spirit of caring, generosity and, it might sound clichÊ, but love.

At the end of the day, we’re all in this together. feedback@dubbophotonews.com.au

LIVING WITH DIABETES

Dubbo Memory Walk & Jog coordinator sought

Local lady wins state-wide Kellion Medal

By SARAH HARVEY DIABETES is one of Australia’s biggest killers, with more than 100,000 people diagnosed with the disease every year. For local woman Margaret Bonnington, living with diabetes is the norm after being diagnosed at the age of two.

Now, more 60 years on, she has been awarded the 2017 60-year Kellion Award – and this Dubbo lady is the only recipient in NSW/ ACT. The Kellion Awards were named after the late Claude Kellion, who made an admirable contribution towards diabetes in Australia after losing his son John to the disease in 1972. Since then, Mr Kellion has established the Kellion Diabetes Foundation, funding vital research that’s led to many advances in diabetes diagnosis and treatment.

Margaret told Dubbo Photo News that she had setbacks growing up with the disease, with an infertility diagnosis in her teenage years and health struggles over recent years, but despite that she’s managed to take control of her illness and live life the way she wants.

“One of the big problems with any medical condition is people often get depressed and give up, and what happens then is they go ‘oh I can’t cope with this anymore’ and so they don’t worry about what goes on and they don’t seek help,” Margaret explained.

“I’ve had neuropathy problems from the diabetes but I’ve been able to maintain that by using naturopathy processes and remedial massage. You have to take control otherwise it will get you. You don’t let it take your life,” she said.

While Margaret is proud of her achievement of living with the disease for 60 years, she says it’s a shame there weren’t more recipients of the award this year.

“I’m disappointed to see there’s not more. I was really hoping there would be more (60-year survivors) given our medical facilities of the day. Australia-wide there’s not many of us but I’m hoping that, with advancements in medicine and technology, people will live a lot longer.”

To find out more information head to www.diabetesaustralia. com.au.

MEMORY Walk & Jog raises funds to support the work of Dementia Australia which, in turn, provides support, education and resources for people living with dementia, their carers, families and friends.

Event locations in metropolitan centres for 2018 were announced this week, but individuals and groups in the Dubbo region can create their own event to raise funds locally.

There is estimated to be more than 413,106 Australians living with dementia. It is the second leading cause of death in Australia and there is no cure. Your fundraising efforts will enable us to continue to provide much-needed support services, education and social research.

SAME SEX MARRIAGE

Aussies say ‘yes’, pollies yet to decide

By NATALIE HOLMES A ‘YES’ majority vote in the same sex marriage survey does not make it legislation, and the bill is yet to be passed by the Australian parliament.

Following the release of survey results last Wednesday, November 15, Senator Dean Smith formally introduced the Marriage Amendment Bill 2017, but it’s expected to be heavily debated before it is finalised.

With 52.7 per cent of the Parkes electorate voting in favour of same sex marriage in the national postal survey, Federal MP Mark Coulton says he will support the

wishes of his constituents in parliament, even though it goes against his personal opinion.

“I’ll be supporting legislation that reflects the question that the Australian people have asked,” he said. “I respect everything that has been proposed, although I voted ‘no’.”

Mr Coulton explained that the survey was used to seek the views of the Australian people, with the 61 per cent national majority in favour of giving same sex unions legal recognition. But the law will only be passed if there is a majority vote in Federal Parliament, which means the bill has to pass through both the Senate and the

House of Representatives.

“The survey was to get the opinions of the Australian people. The wish for legislation is more complicated than that. There will be a lot of discussion and debate to make sure they get it right.”

Protection of parental rights and religious freedoms are paramount concerns when it comes to ensuring the new marriage bill reflects public sentiment and Mr Coulton said this will take some time.

“There are likely to be amendments and they will be debating it in the Senate, then it will come into the House of Representatives and there may be some more amendments, then it will be vot-

ed on, then it will become law,” he said.

Whatever the final outcome, Mr Coulton believes the matter should be handled with the utmost care and consideration, so that the law reflects the needs of the people.

“I believe the Australian people have answered a straight-forward question and I believe that the legislation should reflect that. There will be a lot of discussion.”

He also thinks it will be finalised by the end of the year.

“My feeling is that this will be law by Christmas.”

For many, that will be a longheld Christmas wish come true.

Sonia’s show of support for troops

IN BRIEF

Cycle Club awarded road safety kit grant A GRANT of $3309 through the Federal Government’s Stronger Communities Programme will cover half the costs of Dubbo Cycle Club’s compulsory purchase of a road racing traffic signage kit, required due to new NSW Roads and Maritime Service (RMS) regulations.

“The use of the signs will be compulsory by 2018,” Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said.

A more complete kit of traffic control signs for hosting regular road racing events held around the region is required.

“This will enable riders to continue a participative culture within the community and contribute to a more vibrant and more viable community,” he said.

DUBBO local Sonia Oldfield has been a living example of the Christmas spirit for years, sending care packages to disadvantaged children as far afield as Africa.

This year, something different came her way and she thought she’d give it a go.

“What I’ve put in my packages is really just about them having a little bit of fun at Christmas,” Sonia told Dubbo Photo News.

“Them” refers to deployed Australian Defence soldiers who will be far from home on Christmas Day and stationed in theatres of war.

“I’ve got Shapes (the biscuit), chocolate, bubbles, some red suspenders and a red wig, so they can just relax and have fun. I’ve also put in a book,” she said.

Some conditions do apply so if you’re planning to send a package they must contain non-perishable

RE-CYCLING

A cool $2500 boost for Paramount Tennis Club

Unclaimed bikes get kids moving

By JOHN RYAN IN the 1960s and ‘70s, most country schools boasted huge bike sheds because so many students cycled to school, but it seems to be an oddity these days for kids to pedal to their lessons.

Along with that massive drop in daily bike usage, we’ve seen not only an explosion of the obesity epidemic, but also the loss of basic maintenance skills most kids used to pick up by the time they left primary for high school.

Paul Horder volunteers at Narromine Cycle Club and is looking at innovative ways to encourage a generation of kids to get back into the saddle. He’s negotiated with police to get some of the stolen bikes they’ve recovered but haven’t been able to find the rightful owners.

“The police give me these bikes and we use them for kids who can’t afford a bike, and in some cases we use the bits and pieces for parts on other bikes,” Paul told Dubbo Photo News.

“It’s great for kids who haven’t

A GRANT of $2500 from the federal government’s Stronger Communities Programme Round 3 will help serve up cool refreshments for the Paramount Tennis Club in Dubbo.

Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said fridges are an integral part of the club’s daily operations and the funding will assist the club to replace both its existing drink fridge and the kitchen fridge in its clubhouse.

“The existing fridges have both broken down and are unable to be repaired,” Mr Coulton said.

“Improving and modernising the facilities will help to increase the playing numbers, and ensure the club helps contribute to Dubbo and the surrounding community.”

got a bike first off, and we’d also like to see older couch potatoes come down to the (local cycling) track as well.

“We’re getting a few kids coming along now – we need to keep it going but I think we’re gradually winning,” he said.

Paul isn’t out to break any records but hopes this very local program will grow in the future as the community understands what he’s trying to achieve.

“This is really good because we are going at it steady,” Paul said.

“The next step will be giving the kids tips on maintenance. A lot of the kids can’t even mend a puncture. One young chap had a bike that he rode on flat tyres every day because he didn’t know how to fix them – he had a tiny

bike and we got him onto a racing bike and he became a pretty good rider while he was with us.”

Orana Local Area Command inspector Dan Skelly said everyone wins, including police who are continually frustrated when they can’t find the owners of recovered stolen property so they can reunite them with their goods.

“This is a direct return to our community for children who are in a position where they really can’t afford to have a bike,” Inspector Skelly said.

“Ordinarily these bikes would go to scrap metal, we can’t do anything other than basically take them to the tip, so this is a way that the community can benefit from these unclaimed bikes,” he added.

“The community can’t function anywhere near as well without these volunteers. People like Paul are important to the community – they bring such good work into the community and we’d be a lot poorer without them.”

Meantime, Paul Horder is hoping for widespread support from other locals to help out disadvantaged kids.

“The people in the club like it but we have to get out and get this known more widely, like football and cricket are well known activities. We’ve got a pretty good cycling track,” Paul said.

“We’d like to see more kids but also some adults come down to give us a hand. We need a few more things and anyone who can help could call me on 6882 6660.”

INSPIRING YOUTH

WHAT KIDS SAY

Year 11 studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; hard work pays off The students were also treated to a special dinner party where they were given the opportunity to deliver a speech to guests, explaining their education journey, the ongoing support offered and their post-school goals.

Clontarf academy staff members Edward Bates and Michael Daly accompanied the boys on the trip and said they were overall really ecstatic about the trip. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our stay at the Palm Beach household was nothing short of amazing with the hospitality offered by Bill being wonderful. The hosts commended the studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; behaviour, saying that â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;each of the boys were so lovely and should be proud of the way theyy pres present themselvesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;,â&#x20AC;? said Edward.

Ryan Woolfe says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trips like these that keep the boys on track throughout the school year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of the stuff Clontarf does is based around incentives and goal setting. If you can stick to school, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be that light at the end of the tunnel and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something to look forward to, but at the same time youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gott to work hard to get it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With a cohort of 65 students,, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really hard to get on thesee trips so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really for the boyss who have shown a solid effort at school â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not just showing up every day but getting in and getting their work done.

DEDICATION to school work, high attendance and involvement in community activities are just a few of the expectations members of the Dubbo College Clontarf Academies are required to uphold, and for one group of students, it was their commitment to these values that earnt them a place on the Year 11 end-of-year reward trip to Palm Beach last month.

Eight Clontarf students from Dubbo College Senior Campus spent a week living it up in sunny Sydney, staying at the home of Bill Wavish, the former CFO of Woolworths. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bill is a massive supporter of Clontarf with a particular affiliation with Dubbo,â&#x20AC;? Dubbo Senior Campus Academy director Ryan Woolfe told Dubbo Photo News. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He came to us about this time last year and offered to have a group of boys up at his place so we suggested that we go there for the Year 11 boys who are transitioning into year 12. He really liked the idea of having a yarn to those boys as they were about to embark on their final 12 months of school,â&#x20AC;? Ryan said.

During their time away they were fortunate enough to take part in activities such as surfing, paddle boarding, a lighthouse tour, Sydney Harbour Bridge tour and a visit to the set of Home and Away.

Union action restores pre-council merger job numbers in Wellington

Parkinson’s NSW education seminar in Dubbo on December 1

THE Wellington community will receive a vital boost to employment and services as a result of legal action by the union representing local government workers, with Dubbo Regional Council agreeing to restore local employment numbers to pre-merger levels.

“ONE of the greatest fears workers and community members had following this merger was that local jobs would be lost from the Wellington community, hurting the economy and leading to reduced services,” United Services Union general secretary Graeme Kelly said.

“Small regional communities are incredibly vulnerable to the economic impact of job losses, making the significance of this win all the more significant,” he said.

PARKINSON’S NSW will be presenting an education seminar at the Dubbo RSL Club on December 1, 2017.

The seminar is suitable for people affected by Parkinson’s, their families and carers, medical professionals, care workers and anyone wanting more information about Parkinson’s.

There is no cure.

The education seminar will be held at the Dubbo RSL from 9.30am. Please RSVP by November 27 by calling 1800 644 189.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Volunteers wanted for fireworks night of nights

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY THE organiser of this year’s New Year’s Eve fireworks display has revealed to Dubbo Photo News that the show will be even more spectacular than last year.

“I want to keep our opening display, in particular, a surprise and the rest of the show will only get bigger after that,” Peter Judd said, declining permission for us to print a photo he’s keeping closely guarded of that particular “firework” in spectacular action.

It’s breathtaking.

The show is the brainchild of pyrotechnics expert Steve Lee, and is guaranteed to leave the crowd in awe.

Sure to be the best way for families to see out 2017, Peter says it doesn’t happen without the much needNew Year’s Eve Fireworks Night 2017 organiser Peter Judd is calling for volunteers to help at this year’s exciting event.

ed and valued support of volunteers.

“We usually have around 80 volunteers on the night.

The Rotary clubs will be providing food and refreshment for volunteers,” he said.

“We give Rotary a nice big donation for their support.

Volunteers obviously get free entry on the night and free parking inside the venue as well.”

The Fireworks night is not just about entertainment but is the last big community fundraiser to support local organisations for the year.

One of the beneficiaries of the event are volunteers too – the Dubbo NSW Volunteer Rescue Association (VRA) are the primary rescue agency for our area and will also be receiving a wellearned donation from funds raised on the night.

Dubbo Photo News November 23-29, 2017 LITERARY AWARDS

Boldrewoods go from strength to strength

By NATALIE HOLMES WHILE it began in Dubbo, a local writing competition now has international reach, with scribes from around the globe entering the annual Boldrewood Awards.

“Anyone in the world can enter this competition which takes it to a higher level to get more entries,” Outback Writers’ Centre president Val Clark said.

“And the only way to sustain it is by getting entries.”

Now in its 11th year, the competition continues as a collaboration between the Outback Writers’ Centre and Macquarie Regional Library who named the Boldrewoods after the pseudonym of Dubbo-based 19th century magistrate Thomas Browne.

Writing as Rolf Boldrewood, Browne penned a number of stories including his famed novel “Robbery Under Arms”, which is now considered a quintessential part of Australian colonial literature.

Val said the awards were a fitting tribute to the former Dubbo resident.

“Library director John Bayliss and then president of the Outback Writers’ Centre, Peter Dargin, figured that since Rolf Boldrewood had written Robbery Under Arms while he was a magistrate here, it would be good to have the Boldrewood Literary Awards and to have a specific Australian theme central to it. They wanted it to be an

Australian theme,” she told Dubbo Photo News.

Val, who received a high commendation for her story “Montage” in this year’s contest, said the Boldrewoods had really gone ahead in strength and numbers, and now attract the services of award-winning judges “This year (the judges) were Mike Ladd of Poetica fame and an award-winning poet in his own right, and David Reiter who is the brains behind Interactive Press and an award-winning writer as well as publisher.

“What we are trying to do is have a national stamp on it by having highly professional paid judges which is building the kudos, taking it to another level as far as the competition goes and therefore driving entries that are of an incredibly high standard from around Australia and locally.”

2017 Boldrewood winners PROSE First prize – Old woman crazy with the snakes by Phillip M Everett Second prize – Shazza’s sheep by Tegan Van Der Linden Third prize – After the fire by Roxeena Bidgood Highly commended – Montage by Val Clark Vixens by Judy Tait Dresses of light by Jacqueline Trott Commended

Val said locals are also urged to enter the event each year.

“The Outback Writers’ Centre encourages local people to be involved and to be a part of it. And the local writers in this region are entering the competition at a competitive level. And when you put something into a competition, it makes you think more carefully about your writing. It takes you to another level.”

Former Dubbo poets Ellis Campbell and Ron Stevens have led the way in terms of local competition success. Sadly, Ellis passed away in 2015 and Ron has relocated.

“They had over a thousand awards between them for their bush poetry entries around Australia.

“It’s what they did for their retirement.”

Val says that winning a prize in the Boldrewoods or similar The legend of Herman Lockwood by Paul Clarke In the New Land by Caroline Miley The Wall by Kat Pekin POETRY First prize – Carpet Snake Totem by Roger Vickery Second prize – The Man with the Donkey by Jeff Guess Third prize – The Red Kangaroos of the Landsborough Highway by Jenny Pollak Highly commended The 810 Pemulwuy Express by Jenny Pollak

awards adds credibility to a writer’s professional folio of work.

“If you were going to a traditional publisher and they wanted to see a CV, if they see you’ve won an award, your writing is worth looking at,” she said.

Prose judge Dr David Reiter agreed, saying that “entering competitions like this can be valuable to the author, especially if you get a place and/or comments on your work”.

“Of course, it’s always valuable to put any positive outcomes on your CV and include in grant applications,” he said.

David was very impressed by the 58 prose entries and pointed out that this competition, in particular, gives writers an opportunity to have their work judged equally.

“I believe more emphasis should be placed on awards like the Boldrewoods that reward work of ex-

cellence based on a ‘level playing field’.”

Poetry judge Mike Ladd cited the range of subject matter among the 76 submissions, which included convicts, Anzacs, bush fires, droughts, gum trees, Aboriginal dispossession, cockatoos, Holden cars, shearing, dogs, Uluru, grey nomads, road kill, barbecues and thongs.

“There were also a number of biographical poems, including one about Boldrewood himself, Tracker Riley, John Simpson of donkey fame, and portraits of lesser known figures.

“Poems made it onto my short list if they avoided cliché, clunky rhymes, outdated diction, prolixity, or sentimentalising. I was looking for original use of language, vivid imagery, cadence; poems that intrigued me, entertained me and stayed with me after reading them.”

Design contracts for rail project awarded

HISTORIC

Two-cent treasure found beneath ancient floorboards

By NATALIE HOLMES

A TWO-CENT piece made in Australia’s first year of decimal currency was the most interesting discovery to be unearthed when the worn floorboards were removed from Dubbo’s historic St Brigid’s Catholic Church Hall earlier this month. As the original parish church, the beautiful old building was constructed from locally quarried sandstone in the early 1870s and has stood for almost a century and a half.

Badly in need of replacement, Father Greg Kennedy said some of the flooring was as old as the building itself and was very worn.

“Parts of it were the original floor so they would be 150 years

old,” he confirmed.

“They were wearing out and rotten.”

Fr Greg said the floor had been repaired many times so it was becoming very tired.

“It had been patched and patched, and was falling through in places.” boards comWith the old floorboards pletely removed two weeks ago, ontractors Fr Greg said local contractors have since been ablee to rebuild the underlying strucort the ture which will support lled. new floor, once installed. ding, “They are rebuilding, Father Greg Kennedy: “There was tonnes of soil...”

putting steel piers in concrete and replacing the beams and joists. The new floor should get to go in next week, and hopefully be completed before Christmas.”

In the process of taking out the old materials, workers have also removed a lot of dirt from the area, which now has to be re-purposed. Fortun Fortunately, the original structure remains intact.

“The was tonnes of “There soil,” Fr Greg said. “They used a little digger and a ramp to get in and out.”

A fflooring project as exten extensive as this in one of Dubbo most important Dubbo’s buildin does not come buildings cheap and is costing the pari $120,000. parish

They also have plans to do more renovations in the near future.

“We want to do other work in the hall – the toilets need renovations. The kitchen, which was the original sacristy, also needs some electrical work done.”

Fr Greg said the 1966 coin was the most valuable item found beneath the floorboards.

“There were no great treasures,” he said. “We also found a 1c coin.”

The two coins, which are no longer in currency, may have even been collection plate runaways.

After the many weddings, christenings and funerals witnessed between the walls, the true value lies in maintaining this lovely old gem.

Beautification and boltiness: A brief history of St. Brigid’s ST. Brigid’s sandstone church was designed by Mr Edward Gell, a leading architect in the colony, who had been a pupil to the famous Pugin in Europe. The original plan had to be reduced in size because the Catholic community was unable to afford the original design. The building has a sense of perfect proportions about it. The sandstone walls, local-

ly quarried on the west bank of the Macquarie River, were 12 feet above ground level in May 1870. The building then came to a stand-still because of lack of finance and remained thus for three years.

Fr Chastagnon had come as the second Parish Priest in 1871. On June 23, 1873, he called a meeting at St Aloysius Church/School about

getting a roof on the sandstone walls. He mentioned at the meeting “the boltiness of the contractor” which could have been the reason for the unfinished church. A new contractor began to put the roof on, but halfway through the job asked for an advance payment and then ‘departed for fresh fields and left a number of sorrowing creditors’.

Finally, another con-

tractor completed the roof towards the end of 1873. Pews and windows were beyond the financial reach of the community, so calico took the place of stained glass.

Bishop Matthew Quinn of Bathurst solemnly opened and blessed the church on March 8, 1874.

After 1876, the new stained glass windows were installed at a cost of 700 pounds. The ‘rose

window’ above the choir gallery in the western wall was given by local land-holder Duncan MacKillop, uncle of Saint Mary MacKillop.

The church seated 280 people and cost 2500 pounds. The original building consisted of only the central nave section.

The sanctuary and sacristy (with open fire place) were added in 1880 at a cost of 395 pounds.

CONTRACTS have been awarded to deliver detailed design work for the Parkes to Narromine and Narrabri to North Star sections of the Melbourne to Brisbane Inland Rail project.

Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said the Inland Rail works would stimulate significant development, investment and innovation opportunities for many communities.

He said contracts for both sections have been awarded to WSP Australia Pty Ltd and Mott MacDonald Australia Pty Ltd, with the Parkes to Narromine works valued at approximately $10 million and the Narrabri to North Star works valued around $13 million. The contracts will deliver consulting services to provide engineering, design, environmental assessment and approval activities.

Look! Up on the stage... it’s the “Man of Steel” DUBBO audiences will be enjoying a parody of a popular comic book superhero in June next year when Dubbo College presents its first ever whole-College musical.

“Man of Steel” will be performed at the Dubbo Regional Theatre, telling the story of the superhero and heroine, and their entertaining battle with the evil Countess Olga and her Henchmen.

The producer is creative and performing arts head teacher, Barbara Livingston, who said the musical would present a challenge for students and staff, who will be coming together for rehearsals once a week for the remainder of 2017, before going into a full rehearsal schedule in 2018.

“Man of Steel” will be directed by music teacher Michelle O’Callaghan, assisted by English-drama teacher Kerrie Walters.

Students Phoebe Farrell, David Woods and Maeve Sparrow (pictured) will take the lead roles.

PROFILE

Opportunity is knocking for Samuel

By JOHN RYAN

IF you were looking for an exceptional employee with an incredibly strong work ethic, surely you’d stop interviewing after talking to 21-year-old Samuel Dunn.

He was born in Kenya and spent much of his childhood living in a camp, arriving in Australia as a 15-year-old with his adopted mum, and living in Tottenham for a couple of years.

“I played soccer so I had to come to Dubbo all the time for training.

It was ridiculous because I didn’t drive at that time and so I used to ride a motorbike to come to Dubbo – 150km – after school. I would leave Dubbo at 6pm so I had to ride home to Tottenham at night with all the kangaroos,” Samuel told Dubbo Photo News.

An anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury ended his soccer career with Wanderers and he decided to move to Dubbo to finish his schooling.

“I moved to Dubbo by myself and rented rooms in a share house. I did Years 11 and 12 at the senior campus and I used to work three nightshifts at Fletchers as well to get some money to afford to live,” Samuel explained.

“I used to work in the cold room when I started and did just whatever I was told to do. As the years went by I started doing harder jobs like boning; I enjoyed complicated bonings not many other people could do.

“I’ve been working for Fletch-

ers for almost four years, on and off, including the nightshifts after school. When I finished Year 12, I went to Bathurst for uni for a while.

“I had saved up enough money to go there, and some local people helped me out with a part-scholarship. The course was a combination of TAFE and uni – it was a general maths course that would get me into higher uni courses,” he said.

But Samuel’s life took an

abruptly different direction just recently.

“At the end of last month Fletchers offered me an apprenticeship as an industrial electrician so I’ve taken that and will start doing the course next year through TAFE. So I’ve put my uni aside for that, I’ll be doing the apprenticeship instead. Somehow it just came up,” Samuel said.

“I’ll be an industrial electrician which is more than housing (electrical work). I’ll be able to do any-

thing else, (such as) work in high voltage.”

Samuel’s demonstrated capacity for hard work over the years since being a school student may have had something to do with this apprenticeship ‘just coming up’, and it’s yet another indicator of the giant processing plant on the outskirts of the city being far more than just an abattoir with a production chain.

“You can work here at Fletchers and stay doing one thing, and that’s up to you. (But) I’m a person who always wants to learn more – the more I learn the better, and Fletchers is so flexible if you want to keep learning,” Samuel said.

“Fletchers is very important to the city, there’s no other place like this – doing an apprenticeship here is going to be really good for me,” Samuel said, pointing out that the business’s multicultural nature is another aspect of the workplace he thoroughly enjoys.

“I’m used to having all races around me... for an Australian who’s not used to that, this is a really good place because it expands your circle. You’re not stuck in one group, you learn how to interact which a wide range of people,” he said.

Samuel glossed over his childhood spent in camps in his homeland of Kenya, but more than most Dubbo residents he can surely appreciate just how important it is to grasp opportunities when they’re offered in life.

GOOD LESSON

Dubbo West Primary School gets to work on bush tucker garden

PHOTOS: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

STAFF and students of Dubbo West Primary School gathered on Friday, November 17, for the sod turning of the school’s new bush tucker garden. Principal

NSW Health has released its analysis of the priorities captured through the Palliative Care Roundtables run earlier this year.

NSW Health is asking for comments on the priorities set out in their analysis via an online survey. The survey takes approximately 10 minutes to complete and closes Friday, December 15.

Retired palliative care specialist Dr Yvonne McMaster OAM said: “I am pleased to see that NSW Health is beginning to recognise the need for enhancement of specialist palliative care.

“I would go further than they do in the report and strongly recommend the increased funding for specialist doctors, nurses and allied health across the state.

“Another point I’d like to push is that the somewhat vague ‘suitable spaces for care’ mentioned in the analysis need to be fully staffed palliative care inpatient units – which every community should have access to,” Dr McMaster said.

Palliative care priorities survey closing soon

Eileen Day said it’s taken three years of planning to get the garden underway, and now she’s absolutely thrilled.

“We hope to incorporate the garden with our Aboriginal cultural lessons, teaching the stu-

dents about the different types of plants and about conservation,” she said.

Teacher Matt Dietrich and the schools ‘Garden Club’, consisting of 20 enthusiastic students, will be responsible for the planting

and maintenance of the garden.

The school was overwhelmed with a donation of plants from ICAN and can’t wait for their garden to flourish.

Dubbo Photo News November 23-29, 2017 A LONG ROMANCE

High school sweethearts celebrate 60 years as one

By SARAH HARVEY A PAIR of local high school sweethearts reached a milestone last week as they celebrated 60 years of marriage.

Gerald and Marion Peisley spent their younger years growing up in Dubbo, living in the same street and attending St Mary’s Primary School.

Now, 60 years on, they’ve reflected on their time spent together.

The couple tied the knot with a beautiful ceremony held at St Brigid’s Church on November 16, 1957, surrounded by 100 friends and family. Marion fondly recalls the dresses made by her sister for their special day.

“My sister was a dressmaker and she sewed up all my pants and the bridesmaid’s dresses, and made all of the bouquets, everything was just gorgeous,” Marion told Dubbo Photo News.

Since their wedding day, Gerald and Marion have remained in Dubbo and have had four children, Douglas, John, Sharon and Shane, 12 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren, many of whom live locally.

Over the years the couple say

they’ve had their share of health struggles. In 1985 Gerald underwent open heart surgery at the age of 49, leaving the couple with no choice other than to sell their house. Then, just a few years ago, Mar-ion was diagnosed with h breast cancer and was re-quired to undergo treattment in Orange – but de-spite their setbacks they’vee stuck by one another.

“We’ve had our good od times and our bad but we meet each other halfway. ay..

She’s looked after me now w I’ve got to look after her,” said Gerald.

Dubbo Photo News November 23-29, 2017

OPINION, ANALYSIS, FEATURES, DEPTH. Amazon’s local launch in Australia this week is great news for some consumers – we’re ranked in the top ten countries in the world who love to shop online. Bricks and mortar retailers, however, may not be as impressed.

Will the extra competition from multinationals setting up huge distribution centres in this country just add more pressure to the bottom lines of local stores? YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY reports.

IT’S convenient, cheap and fast.

You can shop ‘til you drop with your feet up in the bath using free apps, at any time of day. Ecommerce literally makes the world your department store. Over 19 million Australians have a smart phone and, according to eMarketer, it’s enhancing the convenience of shopping online.

While online stores are eating into some of the bricks-and-mortar retail sector, it’s still trailing behind, showing that shoppers are still preferring face-to-face experiences.

Last week the National Retail Association (NRA) predicted Christmas this year will net $48 billion nationwide, including $15.9 billion in NSW. Last year, online retail turnover for Christmas 2016 only accounted for $3.3 billion of the $46.5 billion total spend, so shopping locally is clearly still first choice – but all trends point to retailers having some online presence.

NRA CEO Dominique Lamb has told Dubbo Photo News: “Regional SMEs should consider incorporating ecommerce elements to their business if they believe it will add to their profit margins.

“As the internet increases to become more prominent, and with the continued rollout of the NBN, there is no reason as to why regional SMEs can’t potentially benefit from ecommerce in the same way retailers in the cities have.”

Robyn Hicks of Yummy Yarn and Co, Dubbo has a store off Church Street, selling yarn, crochet and knitting supplies locally, but also has an online store attracting national and international clientele.

“Obviously I am in a niche market and, as such, couldn’t do without an online store. It connects me to possible customers all around the country (and overseas). I consider it a growth area but I also have to compete with the already vast amount of online shops in my niche market.

“It is really hard with some people selling wools and cottons from home. They can undercut, and at the same time devalue product, because they do not have overheads to cover such as rent and electricity,” Robyn said.

When local retailers have expenses like wages, utilities, leases or rents and marketing, the reliance on shoppers walking through the door is essential.

“I think it’s something very hard to understand unless you’re in it, or know someone who is. I’d say that there is a lot of consumers don’t understand the link – especially the younger demographic who have grown up with technology and online shopping as the norm,” said Alex&Ria digital communication director Alex Kelly.

“While the encouragement is there, the reason isn’t necessarily.

Who benefits from me shopping local? What can it cost to run a retail store and staff? Is there a percentage of local transactions lost to online sales? How is my $50 going to help? Simply, people want to know they’re making a difference – show them that they can.

“Personally I think it’s also not only about educating, but in a lot

of cases breaking the ‘habit’ of online shopping and to do that shopping almost needs to become an event. A point of difference needs to be created between online shopping and retail shopping and that’s where quality customer service and atmosphere come in to play,” Alex said.

“The DREAM Festival Markets is an example. You create such a vibrant atmosphere that people want to be a part of, and they’re naturally drawn to support the stalls run by small businesses. You can buy things online, you can’t buy an experience,” she said.

Robin of Yummy Yarn and Co. added: “My store directly competes with a local major yarn supplier that also sells online. I cannot hold as much stock as they do and cannot offer all the discounts they do, but hopefully over time I can win customers with excellent

customer service.”

Customer service is still king.

“Consumers are after a service, and whilst “shop local” campaigns serve a purpose in this space to inform and educate on the benefits of shopping locally, such as the ‘My Dubbo’ Shopping card and other local marketing approaches, it is important to offer information to further develop the practises of the retail owners,” Dubbo Regional Council Economic Development and Marketing manager Josie Howard said.

“Consumers ultimately will look for what is enjoyable and convenient and fulfils their need. To help meet those requirements of the consumer, Council has worked with businesses on visual merchandising for online and instore.

The Ignite Program has worked with several owners, as has the Great Business Program and the

former Your Dubbo Program, to educate business people about the importance of their online presence and the full online environment in which their business, and ultimately the consumer now operates,” she said.

“Retail trade is a global market and the online economy needs to be a consideration of all business development, the impact is a consideration along with all other aspects involved in competitive marketing and business practise,” Josie said.

“There is a level of education required to move into online trade, just as there is to open the doors to a physical shopfront – and they are not necessarily independent of one another. “With low overheads and great connectivity, this could present as an opportunity for regional locations such as Dubbo and Wellington. Online shopping is an extension of the traditional market place and retailers need to make a decision based on their type of business, marketing plans and succession plans on what role they want to play in that market.

“Providing quality service, product and price, and supporting that service through online platforms, are all parts of the puzzle that attract consumers to make the decision to ultimately part with their money in support of one store over another,” said Josie.

Alex Kelly agrees that taking advantage of what the online space has to offer can be exciting – and profitable.

“Working with local business across a range of sectors I can see that it has made an impact, and I think part of that comes down to location. While somewhere like Dubbo is a real hub for the Central West, people seem to turn to online shopping out of convenience – if they can’t get something they want locally, they head online.

“I think it places a lot of pressure on businesses to be current, competitive and keep up with the trends.

“You can take a lot of negatives from the situation no doubt, but the flip side is that I see a lot of clients making the best of technology and using online shopping and e-commerce to further their own business. There are so many local business selling online, not only to Dubbo but to NSW, to Australia and beyond,” Alex said.

Car crash horror

I DON’T go to many car smashes these days and I reckon I’ve seen enough horror and tragedy to last me a lifetime, but I shot some pictures and video of the single vehicle crash just south of town on the Old Dubbo Road on Saturday afternoon.

Touch wood and hope I never need their assistance, but if I’m ever trapped in a wrecked car I hope it’s near Dubbo, because the emergency services here are literally second to none.

If you want to put in some incredibly valuable community service, why not put your hand up for the local branch of the Volunteer Rescue Association (VRA), the crew is always quick on the scene and have as good a skill-set as any in the state.

Well done also to the RFS volunteers and local police who assisted in the rescue – it’s a horrible situation, but made far more bearable because we have so many great people who live by the mantra of service above self.

Despite the rain, there were plenty of rainbows on display as people took to the streets on Saturday morning for the Central West Pride March. The event was held later than usual this year so that it could be held after the announcement of the result of the same sex marriage survey.

$30,000 damage at Dubbo business DUBBO Police are investigating a break and enter at Western Plains Windows and Glass on Douglas Mawson Drive in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

“About 2.30am the alarm was activated at the location with the owner arriving a short time later to find his premises ransacked,” Inspector Dan Skelly said.

Police believe a motor vehicle was used to drive into and smash open the front doors of the premises. The interior of the business was then ransacked.

“It has not been confirmed what, if anything, has been taken but the damage caused has been estimated to be in excess of $30,000,” Insp Skelly said.

“A white utility was seen to leave the area around the time of

the break-in. Several hours after the incident a utility was found burnt out on the Golden Highway a few kilometres east of Dubbo. It has not been confirmed that the burnt out utility is the same one seen on Douglas Mawson Drive.

Police are appealing to the community for any information that could assist in this investigation.

Pride in self, family and community? Yes! BY all accounts about 500 people turned up to participate in the Gay Pride March down Macquarie Street last Saturday and there was

plenty of excitement coming hard on the heels of the “YES” case winning in the Same Sex Marriage postal vote.

I wasn’t able to make it to the march but went down to the celebrations on the riverbank a couple of hours later in between jobs and the first person I ran into was Kev Saul, cooking a barby in his front-rower pink socks.

“These guys can really party,” were his first words to me, and it’s great to see that such a large group of people who’ve been pretty marginalised in the past are feeling a much broader acceptance.

I had plenty of discussions on the

same-sex marriage debate during the enormously expensive postal vote and, while I disagreed many times with various viewpoints (I voted YES), I had no vitriol at all directed at me personally.

When I saw how many mates and people I respect were having a great time at the celebrations, I wondered just how significant it is that we as a nation have now got the written proof that we just have to get on with it, rather than being constantly divided on such an important social and human rights issue.

This is despite many conservative commentators trivialising SSM as a fringe issue because it doesn’t meet their criteria of needing to present a financial case that stacks up as the only reason we need to do things.

We have enough other “pressing” social problems to worry

about, I’m just glad that this debate can now finally be put to rest, with all the positive outcomes the peoples’ vote brings with it.

Live and let live.

Happy hemp IT didn’t receive nearly the same public profile but we as Australians are now legally allowed to eat hemp food products.

I spent three years working on this after the hemp industry, such as it dysfunctionally is, couldn’t make it happen in three decades.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, all Australians have much to thank Member for Parkes Mark Coulton for on this issue. He drove it relentlessly through the bureaucratic process and if he never does anything else, the nation will owe him a great debt.

Halloween baby: Another Rare Black Rhino calf Taronga Western Plains Zoo continues to make its mark as a world leader. It’s the only zoo in Australia to have successfully bred three species of rhino – the Black Rhino and White Rhino from Africa, and the Greater Onehorned Rhino from Asia.

The latest rhino arrival was born on Halloween to mother Bakhita and father Kwanzaa and is the 14th Black Rhino calf to be born at the Dubbo zoo.

“We are very happy with the arrival of a healthy male calf born overnight on October 31.

Every birth is special but to have two Black Rhino calves born in one year is particularly exciting. We’re thrilled,” Keeper Scott Smith said.

The yet-to-be-named male calf is the second Black Rhino calf to be born at the Zoo this year. It was a 15-month gestation period for Bakhita. It was a smooth delivery and the calf is strong, healthy and well, Scott said.

making this happen, so it’s a bit unfair she was forced out of the senate before this came to fruition.

Farmers have understood the importance of creating a market for hemp grain from the outset.

It’s great to see hemp food for sale at local outlets like Majo’s Daily Scoop. Proprietor Adam Campbell said hemp has been flying of the shelves in the short time it’s been legal, so once people know they can eat it, and understand the myriad of amazing health benefits, I’d say he’ll be having to keep a whole lot more foodstuffs in stock.

We’ve got plenty of local farmers having a crack at growing hemp for food, and as it uses far less water and chemicals than many other crops, it will be a welcome addition to their enterprises.

Family protection THIS is a subject that’s enormously raised its profile locally in recent times.

I spoke to Dubbo MP Troy Grant about the success stories being generated by the Family Investment Model (FIM) program he helped conceive, and which he drove through cabinet when he

was Deputy Premier – and it’s an incredibly positive initiative.

If we don’t innovate, if we keep government agencies locked in their bureaucratic, empire-building silos, then we’ll continue to have so much waste with so few good outcomes.

FIM ticks all those bureaucratic boxes but, far more importantly, it’s actually working. It’s helping some dysfunctional families to develop the skills, resilience and will to lead better lives and create better futures for their kids.

Troy Grant writes on this issue in today’s Dubbo Photo News: page 25

Hats off to this one.

OVER the next two days (November 24-25), Dubbo plays host to the Aboriginal Legal Service’s “Aboriginal Children and the Law” Symposium.

This will bring a vast wealth of experience to our city and hopefully work out ways forward in regards to what needs to change, how to better keep children with their families by early interventions and prevention strategies,

and also look at consultation and cultural planning for Koori kids.

Finally it seems we’re moving towards far more long term strategies with holistic overviews looking to better inform policy – let’s hope everyone in this space is learning from each other – as a society we all deserve it.

Science high fliers CONGRATS to Dubbo College’s Lauren Cook and Wellington High School’s Kuhailan Jones for winning Victor Chang School Science Awards for outstanding achievements in the scientific field.

Named after the late cardiac surgeon and pioneer of modern heart transplantation, the Victor Chang School Science Awards were established to celebrate young, gifted students and to foster growth in scientific studies.

34 students from across the Dubbo and Orange region received their awards yesterday at the senior campus.

No goat jokes please NO joke, the great goat theft has been solved.

Back in February police were called to investigate the theft of

150 goats from a Cobar property over a number of days.

Just this month a Nyngan landholder told police he’d had nine goats stolen, and then a week later police arrested a 21-year-old man in Nyngan.

Seeing as the NSW Police have just pledged to put new resources into solving rural crimes, this has to be a good sign.

Police marching to the beat ORANA Police are again appealing to the community to keep their property secure after a spate of steal from motor vehicle offences that occurred in Dubbo last weekend.

On Friday night a car in Jack William Street was broken into and an amount of money and other valuables were taken.

On Saturday night a number of offences occurred with a car in Robinson Avenue getting one of its windows smashed and property stolen.

A car in Lawson Street likewise, followed by a similar offence in Hazelwood Drive.

Sunday night was a similar story; two cars were broken into, the

first in the Cobra Street McDonalds’ carpark, the second in Trafalgar Place.

Inspector Dan Skelly said it’s frustrating. He’s asking for people to try and secure their vehicles if possible, not to leave valuables in your car, and also to source any CCTV footage from neighbours which may help police identify the offenders.

“Park your car in a garage, driveway, or well-lit area of a night,” Inspector Skelly said.

“Don’t leave valuables in your unattended car, thieves take any opportunity to steal so don’t given them a chance – make it as hard as possible.

“If anyone can assist us with information about the mentioned offences, or any other matter they believe the police would be interested in, please ring Dubbo Police on 6883 1599, or Crimestoppers on 1800 333 000,” he said. z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best z Additional reporting by Dubbo Photo News staff. z Note: John Ryan is also a councillor on Dubbo Regional Council.

Engage with one another during Social Inclusion Week Dear Editor, Social Inclusion Week runs from November 25 to December 3 and encourages communities to reconnect with one another and give people the opportunity to feel valued and connected to society.

Social isolation can often lead young people to engage in negative behaviour. As a community we need to join together to combat marginalisation and ensure that young people feel included in society.

Social Inclusion Week is a good starting point, providing us with the opportunity to get involved in community events and gatherings for the benefit of young disaffected people.

But we must not stop there. Education is the key factor to breaking down the cycle of social isolation. Youth Off The Streets invests heavily in our education programs and activities, creating opportunities for young people to learn valuable skills and engage with one another.

Our dedication to Education saw my organisation opening two new school sites in 2017. Reaching communities in need to ensure young people not

only get a quality education, but have a place to feel welcome is paramount to enacting social inclusion.

Our Outreach programs engage and connect young people, giving them access to fun activities and programs including sports, music and dance, education, volunteering and community projects. These programs are all about connecting with local communities, building relationships and networks, and addressing social isolation and exclusion.

I believe that all young people should be given the chance to achieve their full potential. That is why we continue to work so hard to develop programs within our services to ensure that our young people feel included and valued, providing them with opportunities to engage in their local communities and society.

You too can do your part in the community, so get involved, volunteer, and connect with your local community, friends and family to support our young people during Social Inclusion Week.

The Postal Survey we did not need to have Greg Smart OPINION

ARE Christian fundamentalist bakers an oppressed underclass?

Given the amount of attention given to them by opponents of Same Sex Marriage during the Postal Survey saga, you would think there was one on every main street, having their religious faith put under duress by same sex couples demanding a wedding cake.

This was one of the more tenuous arguments raised by equal marriage opponents, framed as a threat to the freedom of speech, conscience and faith, and championed by the hard-right conservatives of the Coalition government.

The same political party that champions the role of the free enterprise in the market place. The prospect of a same sex couple bypassing a baker taking advantage of new opportunities to buy from a baker of faith is miniscule at best, and a flimsy point to argue so stridently.

After the results of the survey were announced, the hard-right conservatives conceded the out-

come as “Australians having their say”, but continued on message by demanding individual rights to faith and conscience be protected – much like a Bill Of Rights (previously opposed by the conservative government) would protect individual civil rights.

Remember, these hard-right conservatives in government held Prime Minister Turnbull hostage and demanded the hurtful and wasteful survey in the first place.

It didn’t help that Turnbull is and continues to be the embodiment of a “shiver in search of spine”. The Christian cabal is small in number but wields disproportionate influence in the halls of government.

Two days before the release of the Same Sex Marriage Survey results, Liberal Senator James Patterson released a same sex marriage bill that was designed to increase protection of religious freedoms. Initially reported to have been drafted by a “dozen” conservatives, it has now been revealed that the bill was drafted by the Australian Christian Lobby – the leader of the religious pushback against marriage equality.

This Bill included amendments such as allowing “conscientious objection” to same sex marriage as a defence against refusing ser-

vices to a same sex couple, and allowing parents to remove their children from classes which discuss “non-traditional” marriage.

The mission creep of the religious zealots is obvious. It appears exposing children to anything other than religious dogma is not acceptable for their children, but the government-funded school chaplaincy program, which wasted hours of my children’s schooling and defies the convention of no direct school funding by Canberra, is acceptable pastoral care.

The church has a lot invested in the outcome of the survey. Same Sex Marriage presented a fundamental shift in the fabric of Aus-

` What this postal survey has done is activate the Christian Soldiers.

Now that Australians have had their say, the champions of the No Campaign are painting themselves as the silent oppressed minority... a

tralian society. It was enough to warrant the Sydney Diocese of Anglican Sydney Church to donate $1 million to the No campaign, money it felt was better spent resisting marriage equality than serving the needs of the underprivileged.

Without a hint of awareness of the activities of his church, the Sydney Catholic Archbishop Anthony Fisher sermonised that the government should “keep out of the bedroom” whilst urging people to vote against same sex marriage.

“The state has no business telling us who we should love and how, sexually or otherwise.”

These declarations come from a church which is exempt from paying tax, but will skirt around the separation of church and state, and insert itself into the debate about public policy.

What this postal survey has done is activate the Christian Soldiers. Now that Australians have had their say, the champions of the No Campaign are painting themselves as the silent oppressed minority. I don’t recall the Australian Christian Lobby (along with the Anglican and Catholic leaders mentioned above) being silent during the postal survey period. And now we have Conservatives such as Senator Cory

Bernardi and LNP Senator Matt Canavan rallying the faithful at the Australian Christian Lobby conference last weekend with phrases such as “fighting to avoid becoming a persecuted minority” and “leading into battle”.

Senator Bernardi told the conference that change in politics could be driven if No voters elected “decent Senate candidates”.

“We can no longer be silent, we can no longer sit back and rely on prayer to change earthly events.”

The enlightened amongst us know that the church does not have the monopoly on morals.

We easily identify the thirst for control Bernardi and his acolytes wish to wield over the moral direction of government. We also accept that we have sufficient laws allowing free speech and the practice of religion.

We just ask that religious views be left at the door of parliament – freedom from religion and freedom of religion must co-exist.

And all this because John Howard changed the marriage act to define marriage as only between a Man and Woman, one afternoon in 2004. * Greg Smart lives and works in Dubbo, and is keen observer of current affairs.

OPINION & ANALYSIS

Troy Grant: Dubbo must be open to all options before hanging our hopes on a drug court Troy Grant OPINION WHEN recently asked what I love most about being the State Member for Dubbo, I couldn’t help but answer honestly. I love where I live. I love our region. I love the resilience of our people and without sounding corny, it is a tremendous privilege to serve our community in this role, no matter how tough or unfair some days can be.

Since 2011, I have secured historic and unprecedented levels of funding for the Dubbo electorate.

State Government investment in roads, hospitals, schools, policing, community infrastructure, and local justice services for this period exceeds $1.2 billion. Today, Dubbo is a regional powerhouse, and our best years are still to come.

Obviously, the job has its challenges. If you were to ask my wife Toni, she would say the amount of time I spend away from home, our kids, and even our dog Buster, takes its toll. Toni is right and we pay a heavy price as a family.

However, the time away from our region gives me the opportunity to fulfil one of the most important parts of my job as an elected representative, and that is the promotion of the Dubbo electorate.

I am immensely proud of how far the electorate has come in nearly seven years, and I take every chance to encourage people all over the state to pay attention to our region, plan a visit, or to tell them about our latest achievements as a community.

I would like to think all our elected representatives take a similar approach when they’re travelling, and on the ground in our towns and villages too.

There is a strong sense of civic duty in our region. We take great pride in all Dubbo has to offer, but we are also acutely aware of and honest in the areas in which we need to improve.

In the lead up to the recent Council elections, an article was published in a local paper about my relationship with then coun-

Dubbo is one of two regional centres where a pilot program called the “Family Investment Model” (FIM) is being run to tackle social issues head-on. In this column, Member for Dubbo Troy Grant argues that FIM is “the epitome of justice-reinvestment”.

It acknowledges that many factors can contribute to the social problems facing families, and so a solution requires detailed information sharing and planning between government agencies. cil candidate, now Councillor Stephen Lawrence.

In this article, Mr Lawrence is quoted as saying, “But one thing impressed me about Troy. He doesn’t try to pretend that complex issues are simple, he sets about trying to communicate complex truths. That to me is a real marker of political integrity and leadership and I want to acknowledge it despite our differences.”

I remembered this article when asked about the progress of the Dubbo Drug Court by local media recently, as well as claims made locally that my tenure has been devoid of any ‘social policy’, and thought I would do my best to uphold Councillor Lawrence’s very generous assessment.

Of course, we must explore the suitability of Dubbo’s existing infrastructure to support a drug court. As the person who initiated the body of work to assess the feasibility of its establishment in Dubbo, I remain a supporter of the concept.

However, we need to have a frank conversation about what such an investment means and its potential to make a real and

` Of course, we must explore the suitability of Dubbo’s existing infrastructure to support a drug court. As the person who initiated the body of work to assess the feasibility of its establishment in Dubbo, I remain a supporter of the concept... a

lasting difference. Is this merely another investment in treating the symptoms of the drug problem that afflicts our region, rather than the disease itself?

Mayor Shields voiced his concerns in his acceptance speech about getting caught in such a pattern. Justice re-investment is paramount, as Mayor Shields stated.

I fundamentally agree with this premise. As community representatives, it is our responsibility to tackle social problems head-on, rather than investing in band-aid solutions.

While Dubbo is experiencing such economic growth and prosperity, we can’t afford to be short-sighted when it comes to local investment. For instance, $250 million for the new hospital isn’t just about providing better health services. It’s a catalyst for further investments by government and the private sector.

This investment creates jobs, therefore lowering unemployment; it builds community confidence; and it supports the establishment of complementary infrastructure and services. It lifts education standards, provides more opportunity for professional development, and boosts the standard of living. This is all about improving social outcomes.

The pilot Family Investment Model (FIM) currently running in Dubbo is evidence of my commitment to tackling social issues head-on rather than managing the inevitable consequences instead.

This month, I had the opportunity to brief the new Council in detail, and the community more broadly on the progress of this pilot program at its halfway point. The FIM is the epitome of justice-reinvestment. It is a model

that focuses on the most complex and entrenched disadvantaged families in order to reduce immediate risks, while simultaneously addressing key family indicators of criminality. The FIM acknowledges that numerous factors contribute to these families’ circumstances, which calls for detailed information sharing and planning between government agencies.

The FIM evolved from the Ministers’ Action Group (MAG), a key group that I formed in 2012 to overcome some serious social issues originally in Apollo Estate and then more widely in our community. The MAG tackled the perennial social dislocation and compounding crime problems that were severely impacting Dubbo City’s reputation and functionality. Much was achieved through the great, collaborative work on the ground by many government agencies and groups, but there is still a lot to be done.

The FIM pilot is currently running in Dubbo and Kempsey, and at the conclusion of the 24-month trial period, it will be assessed and evaluated by the Australian Institute of Criminology. At the halfway mark, I’m pleased to report that the FIM model is already seeing real results.

We now have key government agencies working side-by-side, day in and day out, making a real and tangible difference. The FIM has broken down bureaucratic silos, and put the focus back on those in our community who really need help to keep their families on track and out of the justice sys-

` We need to have a frank conversation about what (a drug court) means and its potential to make a real and lasting difference. Is this merely another investment in treating the symptoms of the drug problem that afflicts our region, rather than the disease itself? a

tem. This is a significant change from the previous arrangement of un-productive inter-agency meetings where the only tangible outcome was the consumption of coffee and biscuits.

My sincere hope is that the FIM will be adopted across the state, and become the norm for government provision of social services.

We can’t afford to put all our eggs in one basket in solving the drug epidemic and its associated impacts. I remain a fierce advocate for any service that will make a difference, but the reality is Dubbo is part of a much bigger picture. Let’s be open to considering all options before hanging all our hopes on a drug court.

The FIM is just one part of a broader and ongoing effort to improve social outcomes for Dubbo residents. With the re-engineered police force, for the first time we have a country cop at the executive decision-making table. Dubbo continues to benefit from other community safety and crime reduction investments, including but not limited to the $532,680 Extra Offender Management Service, the $669,000 per year Youth on Track program, the $171,000 Eternity Aid project, and smaller programs such as Midnight basketball. All these initiatives play a very important part in addressing the many facets of this very complex issue.

Anyone advocating for a single initiative as some sort of magic bullet is pretending.

So when I talk about funding for roads, schools and hospitals, I don’t just see bricks and mortar.

I know that every dollar invested in essential infrastructure and services in our region means more jobs, better education for our kids, and a healthier community and better human outcomes. Surely we can all agree, these are the three tenets of a productive and happy life.

Most importantly, I can give every member of our community an assurance that I will continue to work with all relevant government agencies to give our region even more to be proud of. * Troy Grant MP is the Member for the Dubbo Electorate.

look at both sides of this coin,” said Josie. “While we cannot stop the way consumers shop, what we can do is educate and influence practise in our own region. There is opportunity to bring money into the economy from ecommerce business, or leveraging the store front business marketplace with an e-commerce element,” Josie Howard said.

“Some sales can be made simply through Facebook or simple web templates; with development and support, the shop front and the e-Store can support the success of each other within one business model.

“In the same vein, if product and service is available locally the importance of shopping locally is a key persuasion point for consumers. Residents, I believe, are keen to

see their money stay local, and by doing so grow as it moves through the economy,” Josie said.

“While shoppers might be keen to get the job done swiftly, personalised service will still be high on the agenda. Experiential shoppers won’t just be looking to walk into a store, grab the product they want and leave. They will be looking for a more individualised service that provides a more immersive retail experience, rather than simply a Christmas shopping chore.”

For Robyn from Yummy Yarn and Co, experiences get her vote. “I am not an online shopper myself, I like to see things in the flesh before I purchase.”

Does today’s consumer care? “I don’t know – like I said, I think money talks. This is where you have to make a personal connection to the customer by offering

“The reality is there is a lot that you’ll never get from an online shopping experience – quality customer service, relationships, the touch and feel of a product, the convenience of having it then and there, trust in what you’re seeing is what you’re getting – and I think there’s still a lot to be said for loyalty in regional communities...” – Alex Kelly

“We’re living in an age where information is so readily available because of technology that it’s a few clicks of a button to find a competitor’s price. It keeps businesses honest which is great, but the reality is it’s near impossible for a local business to compete with the buying power of a national company.

But wouldn’t it be great if people looked at it from a different angle – what is the cost of not shopping local?” Alex said.

“Dubbo has great connectivity, a strong retail labour force, well educated workforce and an established retail centre. Many businesses in our local economy are already operating in this space, through traditional websites and social media e-trade,” said Josie.

“We have many local businesses that successfully trade online and in store. The promotion available online helps to drive in store sales, and expand sales beyond the local boundaries.

Drug rehabilitation centre on new council’s agenda

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY COUNCILLOR Stephen Lawrence has approached committee members of an Upper House inquiry into drug rehabilitation services in regional, rural and remote NSW, to invite them to visit Dubbo.

Members of the Legislative Council, Greg Donnelly and Courtney Houssos, are on the Health and Community Services committee tasked with reporting on services currently available and what’s needed.

“I’m hopeful that it will occur and, if that does occur, that the Mayor will attend as a witness before the inquiry and talk about the pressing need we have in the region, and I hope that organisations and citizens will also attend. That will make it all the more effective,” Cr Lawrence (pictured, inset) told Dubbo Photo News.

“I can indicate that council will be presenting a submission to the upper house inquiry

` When people need to get off drugs, it’s their social network and environment they also need to get away from...a – Nguumambiny Indigenous Corporation CEO Lyn Fields

into the rehabilitation services,” he said.

One of the first motions passed by the new Dubbo Regional Council was to charter a way forward to deal with the range of social justice issues the community is confronted with. “One of those goals is for a residential rehabilitation centre and for council to arrange its policies and programs toward that outcome, as a matter of principle.

We have formed a working group of councillors to develop a draft policy,” said Cr Lawrence.

“We haven’t set a deadline for that in the motion as we have set out to explore and develop a range of policy areas which are new for Council, so we didn’t want to set a confined time frame,” he said.

Mayor Ben Shields has supported the charge on Dubbo getting a rehabilitation centre since his election as Mayor on September 28, and that it was something council could implement in cooperation with other levels of government and the private and/or community sector.

“We are the grassroots level of government; with a broad range of powers under our legislation. We have the ability to assist our community achieve sustainable solutions to complex social problems,”

Planting scheme to replace Bultje Street trees THE useful life expectancy of eleven trees and one stump in Bultje Street (between Darling Street and Brisbane Street) have well exceeded their 2012 limit and are stunted with low canopy volumes, according to council.

A planting scheme has been designed to plant an equal number of trees on each side of the street. The selected tree for Bultje Street is the Zelkova serrata (Japanese Elm), and where overhead powerlines exist, the smaller Zelkova serrata ‘wireless’ will be used.

Council must demonstrate increased canopy coverage (200 per cent) over a 10year period. Plantings will be completed

by March 2018.

Council considering Boundary Road supermarket THE Maas Group Properties has sought to amend the Dubbo Local Environmental Plan 2011 which affects land located east of the existing Southlakes Estate.

Amendments include rezoning parts of the land from R2 Low Density Residential to R1 General Residential to facilitate further residential development types.

Rezoning of land along the future Boundary Road extension to B1 Neighbourhood Centre would facilitate a future supermarket and specialty stores.

Council endorsed the amendments and limited total retail floor space to 5000 square metres and permitted an indoor recreational facility. The Committee’s rec-

Cr Shields said.

“Accordingly, during this term of Council we should aim to work cooperatively with government and the community to put in place innovative solutions for the community.”

For some however, the promises and inquiries are not coming soon enough.

Since 2015, when she and a group of advocates gathered 9000 names for a petition for Dubbo to get a drug rehabilitation facility, Nguumambiny Indigenous Corporation CEO Lyn Fields has waited in vain for action.

“The thing that is frustrating when we first brought it up is, that it’s not just rehab that’s needed. It’s also the fact most rehabilitation is run after you’ve detoxed, so we need detox beds in our local hospital and we won’t have any.

“The reason we need detox beds and rehabilitation is that when people need to get off drugs, it’s their social network and environment they also need to get away from,” Lyn said.

“It’s necessary to have a rehab where they can remove themselves. Most people are trying to get off it after years of using. This is not something they can sit at home and wait for a councillor to come and make them better.

COUNCIL NEWS...

IN BRIEF ommendation will now be considered at Council’s Ordinary Meeting.

Multi-dwelling housing on Wingewarra Street refused COUNCIL’S Planning, Development and Environment Committee recommended a Development Application for two lot subdivision, multi dwelling housing and four lot strata subdivision be refused.

Committee chair Councillor Stephen Lawrence said the recommendation to refuse the Development Application is based on an assessment which deemed the proposed development to not represent the orderly development of the land and could pose a traffic safety threat.

“Varying reasons have been provided for recommending refusal including failure to meet minimum lot size requirements, the proximity of proposed driveways to existing power poles, failure to meet minimum requirements for private open space, and dangers related to vehicle access and public safety,” Councillor Lawrence said.

QUESTIONS FOR COUNCIL Do you have a question for Dubbo Regional Council? Send it to Dubbo Photo News and we will put your question to council then publish the response here. Email feedback@dubbophotonews.com.au, post to our office, or phone Dubbo Photo News on 6885 4433 ••• What guarantees can council give that trees being chopped down or replaced have no community heritage attached to them, such as the trees in Darling Street which were planted to commemorate returned soldiers – now gone?

Council’s Manager Recreation and Open Space, Ian McAlister advised: Council respects that trees are an integral part of the urban area and has in place a range of procedures for their protection and management.

Removing trees for any Council project is only permitted following consultation with Council’s Community and Recreation Division and in accordance with Council’s policies and procedures for protecting significant trees and heritage items.

Each year Council reviews and updates a Significant Tree Register. This register and the associated Tree Preservation Order expressly prohibits the ringbarking, cutting down, topping, lopping, and removing, injuring or wilful destruction of any tree or groups of trees listed in the Significant Tree Register or the Interim List associated with that Register.

Members of the public can nominate trees that they believe should be included on the Significant Tree Register. Nominations are formally assessed and a recommendation made to Council for their inclusion if deemed appropriate.

In specific regard to Darling Street, this work included extensive consultation with the Dubbo RSL Sub-branch who were fully supportive of the work to beautify the area around the Cenotaph and the replacement of the avenue of trees which was formally re-dedicated as the Darling Street Memorial Avenue of Trees in June 2016.

••• Will rate payers be given an extension to pay their November rates which have been bundled together with the previous rates notice after council experienced a printing problem, just prior to the council election in September?

Director Corporate Services Craig Giffin responded: Both the first and second rate instalments for 2017/2018 are payable by November 30, 2017.

An extension has already been provided for the first rate instalment for 2017/2018 which was originally due and payable in August 2017.

As a result, no further extensions will be provided however if ratepayers are experiencing difficulties with the instalments payment they should contact Council’s customer service centre on 6801 4000.

••• Will the third bin definitely happen? And if yes, then when, or is there a chance the newly elected councillors might stop it happening?

Mayor Councillor Ben Shields provided this response: Like many members of the community I am angry that Council entered a contract, which includes the weekly collection of organics in the Dubbo and Wellington urban area, during the Administration period with no elected representatives scrutinising the contract. This contract is legally binding so we are stuck with it.

Organics collection will be introduced for 2018/2019. However, I have had discussions with Council staff and have requested the General Manager to ascertain the cost of a weekly general waste collection service being provided compared to the fortnightly general waste collection which was included in the contract.

When a review of costs is received there will be further discussions with staff, Councillors and ultimately the matter will be raised in a Council meeting to determine if weekly general waste services could be retained.

The community can rest assured I am doing my best within my legal constraints to try and soften the blow of this bad policy.

THE Charity Fundraising event held in August that featured Dr Brendan Nelson AO as an extraordinary guest speaker has raised $21,177.90, to be divided between Can Assist ‘Cancer Assistance Network’ and the RSL programme Homes for Heroes ‘Vets in Need’.

Dr Nelson is the Director of the Australian War Memorial in Canberra and gave a fascinating talk about the institution, intertwining personal stories of individuals who went to war, including some for the Dubbo region.

“We are extremely happy with the final figure raised,” event organiser Mike Blake said.

“I have had the pleasure on behalf of the Parkes Electoral Council of the Nationals NSW to present cheques to both organisations,” he said.

“We are so grateful to all those who made the fundraising function so successful, including the

donations from individuals covering all our costs, and the outstanding choir of 55 members from Dubbo Christian School, St Johns College and St Brigid’s Adult Choir.”

Mr Blake also acknowledged “the outstanding performance of the Dubbo and District Pipe Band, The Dubbo RSL Club’s exceptional co-operation, the function team, and of course the unbelievable Dr Brendan Nelson AO who had the audience spellbound”.

“And a special thanks to Dubbo Photo News for their great support,” Mr Blake said.

“Dr Nelson was so impressed with the Pipe Band he has arranged for them to perform at the Australian War Memorial evening service in Canberra on Saturday, December 9.”

Given the success of the event, Mr Blake said there’s a good chance it will be repeated in 2018.

WELLINGTON NEWS Huge solar farm would bring more than just power

By JOHN RYAN A GIANT solar farm covering about the same area as Wellington’s urban area could be built near the local jail, and locals are being urged to provide input to AGL, the company behind the project.

The project could power up to 98,000 average sized homes.

Mid-Macquarie Landcare’s chair Cameron Tomkins is urging anyone interested to attend a community drop-in afternoon at Wellington Civic Centre on November 28, from 3-6pm.

“The sleepy sub-station located on the road out to the jail has generated a hub of renewable energy interest in recent times, but you do not have to live on that road to take a passing interest in the solar field that will be two and a half times bigger than (AGL’s solar farm at) Nyngan,” Mr Tompkins said, pointing to other major alternative energy projects that have sited near that sub-station to get power into the grid as easily and cheaply as possible.

“A 33-tower wind farm and an 800-acre solar panel farm will both be fully operational in two years on the town’s doorstep as NSW decommissions coal-fired power plants.

“This is another big pro-

ject on the door step and it is important in the early stages that the community can insist on attracting some benefit for itself,” he said.

AGL is currently conducting feasibility studies with a view to submitting a project application for a 300MW solar plant off Goolma Road, near Wellington, that would size it at twice as large as the massive solar farm the company built at Nyngan in 2015-2016.

Project Manager for the Wellington North Solar Plant, Jonathan Ambler, said AGL is considering the proposed solar plant as part of its commitment to reliably meet the energy needs of the future in a cost effective and sustainable way.

“The high levels of solar irradiance in the central west, the strong transmission network in the region and the declining cost of solar power over the last decade means that projects like this one are an important source of new power generation,” Mr Ambler said.

AGL estimates benefits for the Wellington community from the solar project would be similar to those achieved for the local economy in Nyngan.

These include: z Approximately 250 full time jobs during its construc-

tion phase. At Nyngan, approximately 20 per cent of workers were sourced from the local region, and AGL anticipates this number to be similar for the Wellington North Solar Plant. z On average, AGL’s Nyngan Solar Plant saw a monthly spend of between $350,000 to $500,000 in local communities on indirect costs, including accommodation, food, petrol and other suppliers to support the project’s construction. z Over the operation phase of the Nyngan Solar Plant, it is anticipated around $137 million will flow into the region through employment and direct maintenance service requirements such as plant and infrastructure upgrades.

Mr Tomkins said the success of the community fund set-up by the Bodangora wind farm shows how important it is for locals to learn about these energy projects and have their say while they’re still at the concept stage. Community input has played a major role in the Bodangora fund which will see $50,000 invested into local organisations each year for the next 25 years.

“Regulation makes Infigen (wind) and AGL (solar) contribute to the community and I am imploring people to voice an opinion on where the money flows from these pro-

jects of state significance,” Mr Tomkins said.

“Before Christmas the first community benefit funding round from the wind farm will be finalised to local groups and it is important to note that residents of Wellington vote on that money on a voluntary basis to keep the money in town.

“The same structures will be in place for the solar farm – these initiatives continue for the life of each project,” he said.

Mr Tomkins said he’s keen for Wellington locals to understand that individuals can get on a committee to direct the fund monies and that these sorts of state significant projects will happen whether the local community gets involved or not.

“Let’s capitalise on the event instead of being negative,” Mr Tomkins said.

“There are many shortterm and some long-term jobs in these projects.”

Those who are unable to attend but are interested in the Wellington North Solar Plant are encouraged to get in touch with AGL, phone 1800 039 600, email aglcommunity@agl.com.au or online www.agl.com.au/ wellingtonnorthsolar * John Ryan is employed part-time by Mid-Macquarie Landcare.

Love your Lungs... Wellington Health Service walks for COPD Contributed by WELLINGTON HEALTH SERVICE NOVEMBER 15 was World Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (COPD) Day and Wellington Health Service hosted a walking event in Cameron Park to raise awareness about the role of physical activity as part of a management plan for the disease.

COPD is a long-term disease of the lungs which

causes shortness of breath.

COPD covers conditions such as emphysema, chronic bronchitis and chronic asthma which is irreversible.

Participating community members walked along a marked lap through the park and covered a collective total distance of 133km during the three-hour event.

Western NSW Local Health District would like to extend a special thank you to the students from

Wellington Public School and their teachers who participated in the event and contributed to the total distance.

LOCAL CHERRY INDUSTRY SET FOR BOOM AFTER YEARS OF SETBACKS! New export access agreements with China, Indonesia and Vietnam for cherries, peaches, plums and apricots are a game changer for the region’s orchardists with the local cherry industry set for particularly strong growth. China is the big one. Our growers have been locked out of this market for years.

I said in my inaugural speech that one of my top priorities was improving export market access for local fruit growers and we have now achieved this.

These new agreement are going to make it much easier and faster to get our cherries and other stone fruit into mainland China, Vietnam and Indonesia.

The number of local orchards has been declining here in recent years and the local growers and I have been working very hard to change that.

For years we’ve been watching the Tasmanian cherry industry go ahead in leaps and bounds because they are free of fruit fly and can sell anywhere, but this new protocol allows our orchardists to compete on a more level playing field.

I’m now expecting a significant expansion of the local cherry industry. I think for the first time, young orchardists will now be seeing a future on the land locally. I also think you’re going to see more orchardists planting fruit trees now, which will be an amazing achievement, especially considering many have

pulled trees out in recent years.

Make no mistake, this breakthrough has been driven by our area.

The local orchardists and I made it our point of not only lobbying Barnaby Joyce but we also insisted on meeting the Australian Government officers who actually sit down at the table with their foreign counterparts and do the negotiations. I think this was the difference, after they initially told us cherries were not a priority.

They could see firsthand how passionate our local growers were and the importance of this issue to them. I think it put a real human dimension to the argument, and to their credit, they listened to us. Cherries finally became a top priority for negotiators after years of delays and frustration.

] Andrew pictured with Bruce Reynolds, Peter West, Myles Parker and Guy Gaeta who visited Canberra in March to lobby for greater access to export markets.

At one point we were all planning to go over to China to keep pushing for it but the speed at which this has been made possible has been very gratifying.

Exports of cherries, citrus and table grapes to China were worth over $230 million in 2016-17. The improvements in the protocols for these products will allow Australian producers and exporters to export more fruit to China in the upcoming season.

My message to orchardists is: start planting trees!

GOOLMA PHONE TOWER SWITCHED ON!

The same sex marriage survey gave all Australians the opportunity to have their say on this issue. And now the results are in, I believe that Australia needs to come together and unify.

This unity needs to occur across both city and country communities.

I’ll therefore be voting in favour of the samesex marriage legislation and I would encourage everyone in our area to accept and respect the outcome of the survey and come together in the best traditions of country Australia. Everyone, no matter how they voted, should now unite.

This week the Goolma mobile phone tower was switched on after undergoing a testing by Telstra.

I think that the debate has for the most part been respectful in our part of the world and I would hope that this will continue as the legislation passes through the Parliament.

It is one of the 499 new and improved base stations funded under Round 1 of the Federal Government’s Mobile Black Spot Program.

Nationwide, the new base stations are delivering new and improved coverage to 25,500 homes and businesses across 68,600 sq km of handheld coverage and 5,700 kilometres of major transport route coverage.

Debate on the same sex marriage legislation is scheduled to begin in the Senate very soon.

I would encourage Senators from all parties to conduct this discussion with respect and sensitivity and to not adopt combative approaches. There are same sex couples now waiting to be married and they should have that opportunity without delay or bitterness.

Having been through the survey process where everyone got to express an opinion, this should now be the moment for Australians to see their national Parliament at its best.

The Parliament now needs to legislate the will of the Australian people and it should do this promptly and in a way that unites our nation.

The long-awaited tower will deliver 3G and 4G mobile coverage to Goolma and the surrounding region – terrific news for residents, businesses, farmers, motorists and Goolma Public School! ] Andrew pictured with Tracey Hardie-Jones.

The Dubbo Regional Sports Awards were held last week, and I was honoured to present an award to Geurie’s Tracey Hardie-Jones for representing New South Wales and Australia in hockey.

MUDGEE BOOK LAUNCH

CELEBRATING AGRICULTURE IN CALARE. THANK YOU FARMERS! This week marked the inaugural National Agriculture Day a day to celebrate our agricultural industries across Calare and acknowledge the significant contribution they make.

Here in Calare the mixed farming, fruit, vineyards, meat and wool processing industries are vital to our local economy and it is important to acknowledge the role farmers and agricultural industries have played in bringing prosperity to our area and building a unique Australian culture.

Agriculture is a sector that continues to perform year after year and is one of the cornerstones of the Australian economy, with the value of Australian agricultural production exceeding $60 billion for the first time in 2016–17.

] Andrew pictured with Judy Kurtz, Diane de St Hilaire Simmonds and some of the fairies at the book launch.

On Saturday I attended the book launch for Australian Fairy Poems in Mudgee. ] Andrew pictured with staff members from Gulgong Pre-School who won the overall Gold Nugget award.

This included Best Accommodation which was awarded to Owl Head Lodge, Tradie of the Year which went to Matt Hogden from Matt Hogden Plumbing and Apprentice of the Year which went to Richie Nicholls from Nicholls Machinery.

Gulgong is a thriving community and has many successful businesses.

Congratulations to all of the nominees and award recipients!

EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST EXTENDED FOR ARMISTICE CENTENARY GRANTS PROGRAM Next year Australians will pause and reflect on the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War. From a population of fewer than five million people, 416,809 men enlisted, of whom more than 60,000 were killed and 156,000 wounded, gassed, or taken prisoner.

Every year on Anzac Day we mark the anniversary of the day the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) landed on Gallipoli in Turkey.

The book was produced by Mudgee’s Judy Kurtz who did the illustrations and Diane de St Hilaire Simmonds who wrote the wonderful fairy poems.

The exhibition also featured an exhibition of Judy’s illustrations.

IS THE NEXT BIG SMART FARMS IDEA IN CALARE? Local farmers, and community and industry groups in Calare are encouraged to apply for funding under the Smart Farms Small Grants program, though the Federal Government’s National Landcare Program.

Grants of between $5,000 and $100,000 are available to assist in protecting and improving the condition of soil, vegetation and biodiversity and support agricultural systems to adapt to change.

Grants can also help to develop and extend new tools, methods and technology for farmers to continue to be at the forefront of land management.

Round One of the Smart Farms Small Grants program closes on 7 December 2017.

For more information on the grant and how to apply visit www. nrm.gov.au

WHITE RIBBON DAY This Saturday, 25 November, marks White Ribbon Day – the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.

Domestic violence is a serious issue in regional communities, including here in the Central West where the rates are unacceptably high.

It can be extraordinarily difficult for victims of domestic violence to speak out and get help. We, as a community, need to provide them with as much support as we can.

We are fortunate to have a number of different organisations working hard in our local area to assist victims and bring perpetrators of domestic violence to justice. I’d like to thank and acknowledge them for their efforts.

I recently had the opportunity to recognise the Wellington Domestic Violence Collective – a team dedicated to raising awareness for White Ribbon Day and community events related to the cause.

Domestic violence is not a private matter. It’s criminal behaviour. It’s not pleasant to talk about but we need to shine a light on this issue in order to bring it to a stop.

DO YOU HAVE AN EVENT THAT NEEDS FUNDING?

To mark this important milestone in Australia’s history, community groups in the Calare electorate can apply for funding under the Federal Government’s Armistice Centenary Grants Program. Grants between $3,000 and $50,000 are available for projects or activities that commemorate the end of WWI.

A consultative committee will review all proposals and develop a short list of applicants to be invited to submit a formal application to the Department of Veterans’ Affairs.

Agriculture is the fastest growing sector of the economy, and provides jobs to about 12 million Australians. It was recently responsible for keeping Australia out of recession.

Well done to everyone involved!

It is the day we honour the service and sacrifice of every Australian who served in the First World War and all those who have subsequently served.

The deadline for the submission of the Expression of Interest form, Project Plan and Budget Form has been extended to 5pm Tuesday, November 28th, 2017.

The total value of Australian farm exports increased by $7 billion over the past six years—from $38 billion in 2012-13 to a forecast $45.2 billion in 2017–18.

I’m encouraging organisations in Calare to apply for Round Two of the Australian Government’s Building Better Regions Fund (BBRF).

] Andrew pictured with Chris Pearson at the Holtermann Museum on the weekend.

On Saturday I was given a tour of the Holtermann Museum in Gulgong by Committee Chairman Chris Pearson.

The museum is a work in progress, and the plan is to restore two iconic buildings that will house the Holtermann Collection of photos that feature the gold miners in Gulgong and surrounding areas.

Under the Community Investments Stream grants are available for community activities such as festivals, expos, new or expanded local events, strategic regional plans, and leadership and capability strengthening activities Submissions close on 19 December 2017.

For more information on the program, or to submit an application, visit www.business.gov.au/assistance/buildingbetter-regions-fund Remember, if we don’t apply for the funding here, the money will go to somewhere else in Australia!

I can’t wait to see the end result!

SUDOKU EXTRA

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small 9-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.

Dubbo Regional Sports Awards: November 17, 2017 Setting goals and using stepping stones are key to success Story by GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL

Left: Emcee for the night, Geoff Mann, in a Q&A sesssion with cricketer Jordan Moran

COUNTRY Cricketer of the Year Jordan Moran was the perfect role model for aspiring athletes at the Dubbo Regional Sports Awards on Friday night, November 17. Addressing a record number of athletes of all ages, Jordan recalled his journey to the top, from beginnings on the green coastal pitches to the hard, true surfaces in Dubbo and the west.

Jordan engaged the audience in our Q&A before receiving his own recognition award from Sports Council Chair Neil Webster.

Federal Members Mark Coulson (Parkes) and Andrew Gee (Calare) were energised in their praise or those who have trained and supported young and more mature athletes across a plethora of sports.

Kate and Susan McGrath were special guests, on hand to present the award named in honour of their parents. Neil Milgate (Rugby League) was the recipient of the inaugural John and Nita McGrath Community Contribution trophy. Neil spoke emotionally of his pride in receiving the honour from the McGrath girls following the death of Nita just days after she presented the John McGrath Award last year.

An actionpacked day at Disability League Tag Knockout

By SARAH HARVEY IT was a day of inclusion at Caltex Park on Thursday, October 19, as Building Kinnections hosted their 3rd annual Disability League Tag Knockout competition.

A total of 28 teams travelled from near and far to be a part of the competition, battling it out in hope of being crowned this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s champions.

Teams played brilliantly throughout the day, but in the end ICANâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team was too strong and secured the win against BREAKTHRU in the grand final.

Building Connections would like to extend a thanks to all of their sponsors and volunteers for helping to make the day such a success.

Club Dubbo turns Bowls into diamonds!

Don Bates: the passing of one of a kind

Diamond celebrations on the green

THE West Dubbo Men’s President’s Day was a huge success with NSW State President Vince Beard a special guest representing Bowls NSW. “We had 26 teams from across the Zone including Trangie, Molong, Nyngan, Coonamble, Peak Hill, Yeoval, Gulargambone, and locally from Dubbo City, Macquarie, Railway and of course, West Dubbo,” Bowls Manager Anthony Brown told Dubbo Photo News.

During the lunchtime formalities, Bowls NSW Merit Badges were pinned on West Dubbo Bowling Club members for their services to the club over the last 12 months.

Vince Beard acknowledged the following men for their outstanding contributions: z Steve Robinson – for his work coaching juniors and assisting in their tournaments; z James Robinson – one of the club’s promising juniors, who has had a great year, winning the Minor Singles, runner-up in the Far West President’s Singles, fourth in the State Junior 7-a-side Championships, and more recently selected in the NSW Country Junior

team against City.

Bowls NSW Ladies’ brooches were presented to: z Bev Goss and Mary Ney – for their efforts umpiring and marking men’s pennants and championships and “Far West Emu badges were presented by Vice-President Alex Rae to Wayne Herd and Warren Brown reflecting their commitments throughout the year, playing all levels of bowls and also assisting in general duties for bowls at West Dubbo,” Anthony continued.

He said the bowling was outstanding as the diamond “celebratees” sparkled on the greens.

Results: 1st: Garry Stanford, Trevor Edwards & Ron Davis (Peak Hill $180); Richard Carpenter, Roger Simpson & Ron Oxenham, Wellington (2nd, $120) and Wayne Thompson, Ian Hobson & Phil Knight, Dubbo City (third, $90).

Best Card in the morning: Dan Smith, Lyndsay Burden & Ben Sullivan (West Dubbo $60).

Best Card in the afternoon: Andrew Barber, Luke Coffee, Geoff Kolhnberg (Trangie $60).

Runners up Richard Carpenter, Ron Oxehasm and Roger Simpson from Wellington were delighted to receive their prize from Brian Jones and Vince Beard.

Lawn bowler to carry baton!

DUBBO City Bowls “legend” Annette McMillan received a pleasant surprise when she returned from the Masters tournament on the north coast recently.

Annette was one of a number of local residents who received letters advising of their selection to carry the baton on its way around our nation towards the Gold Coast for next year’s Commonwealth Games.

“Annette has been a prominent lawn bowler at club, dis-

trict, regional and state level for more than 25 years. She has won many State titles and in 2015 won the inaugural NSW Senior Bowler of the year,” wrote Merrill O’Sullivan, President of Dubbo City Women’s Bowling Club.

“Recently she played in state singles and skipped our Fours team in state championships and came runner-up. All of our club members believe she is very worthy of the honour

of bestowed on her and would just like to acknowledge this through Dubbo Photo News,” Merrill said.

Annette will carry the baton proudly alongside other citizens when it passes through Dubbo and on to Wellington at the end of January. Over the next few weeks we will bring news of others who will be acknowledged at a community event once more details become Annette McMillan available.

CRICKET

Jason Ryan and his Outlaws set to raid the SCG – again!

FOLLOWING last week’s deluge across the west, there was very little cricket played.

Despite the wet wickets, the moisture from above still had a silver lining for the Orana Outlaws T20 team.

The defending Country NSW Plan B Big Bash champions were primed for a showdown with the Central

West Wranglers, ACT Aces and the South Coast Crew in Orange on the weekend as part of a remodelled competition format. No longer a knockout, the round robin was planned to decide semi-finalists.

As defending premiers and therefore the top seeds in the group, coach Jason Ryan and his squad were granted automatic entry to

the finals series on the famous SCG next month.

While it was not the desired result, “we would have preferred to win our way through over three matches”, coach Ryan was nevertheless philosophical.

“We play all our competitions under conditions set down to cover things like the rain in Orange. Sometimes it disadvantages you,

other times you get the benefits of having performed well in previous matches,” Jason said.

“We will take our best game to the famous ground on Sunday, December 10, and hope there is plenty of support from cricket fans who will travel down or be in the crowd from their home bases closer to the city,” he added.

DON BATES, Science Master, Volleyball devotee, Astley Cup Sports Manager and all-round good bloke, passed quietly last week after a brave, but typically private battle with illness.

Mister Bates, as he was known to thousands of students at Dubbo High School, St John’s College and more recently, the School of Distance Education, will be remembered for his absolute dedication to detail, his determination to provide the best environment for his students to obtain their full potential, and the supportive, behind-the-scenes roles he played at school and in community sport.

Don was one of the founding members of the Dubbo Volleyball Association in the early 1970s, warming to the task as an administrator, taking on the challenge of umpiring and then managing representative teams to State level.

One of his great protégés was Mark Barnard, a champion player who went on to coach at national level. Don was instrumental in bringing Mark home to Dubbo with his Australian team for an exhibition match at Sports World.

The former took great pride in “young Mark’s” progress; the latter, ecstatic that his old mentor had maintained a keen interest in his career. Both are recognised on the NSW School Volleyball Roll of Honour.

Don acted as stats man, manager, sometimes strapper and always “motivational guy” for the late Ken Eggleton for over 15 years in Astley Cup and University Shield. He transported school students to various representative trails and carnivals and weekends were never his own as he delivered boys and girls safely to their homes following other events.

Don’s wonderful service to sport in our community may not have been broadcast widely.

That was the nature of this generous, caring man.

Gone, but forever remembered.

Vale Don Bates

Jim Oriel, the last man to whistle up a Johnny Walker Challenge match THIS week we lost another great contributor.

Jim Oriel was well known in many spheres for his commitment to our city, the west and its people. He passed early in the week and was farewelled by friends who knew him as a loving father, outstanding businessman and extremely benevolent citizen.

Jim was also a league player who took on the hardest job on the field when he retired.

His stories of the great battles between Dubbo, Narromine, Warren, Wellington and other towns as they fought to retain or to snatch the coveted Johnny Walker Cup in the 1940s will be a feature in next week’s Sports section.

Maya’s deeds celebrated by club mates at special presentation

By GEOFF MANN MAYA Piras was unable to receive her Sports Recognition Awards on Friday night so her teammates gathered around on Saturday at the Regional Championships in Narromine to bring a broad smile to her face.

Maya is a gifted all-rounder who specialises in the hurdles. The teenager is regarded by Athletics NSW as a real up-and-comer, and she has been selected to train at the AIS in Canberra under specialist coaches.

Another Sally Pearson on the way!

Support for athletes heading to Adelaide for Nationals OVER the past few weeks we have highlighted the excellent results of local competitors on the track and in the field at State Championships and this Saturday night supporters are gathering to raise funds to offset costs for four of them as they fly down to Adelaide for the National Championships.

The quartet were amongst a host of Dubbo Athletics Club members who joined nearly 200 others across a range of sports who were recognised at the annual Sports Awards last Friday night – see our photos Inside Sport today.

“Well done mate!” Millie Gooch, Brooke Galley, Lockie Townsend, Jess Farraro and Mikala Bender are all smiles as Maya shows off her Award. PHOTO: COURTESY OF JENNY CUDMORE

TROTS

Gilgandra Windmill finalists decided at Dubbo Harness Racing track THREE great heats of the Gilgandra Windmill last Wednesday night under the ribbon of light.

According to Graham Phipps, one of the key organisers, horses travelled from Tamworth, Peak Hill, Parkes, Young, Bathurst Dubbo “and points in between”.

“We have some tremendous qualifiers for the final to be held on a gala day, Sunday week, December 3,” Graham said.

“Siotada, driven by Michael Munro and trained by Steve Jones in Bathurst, defeated Flyingretna (Brett Hutch-

ings, Parkes) and Jogalong Dee (Jason Turnbull; Brad Peisley, Dubbo) in the first heat.

Mat Rue drove Big Bill (trained by Peter Gavin in Dubbo) over trainer/driver Brett Hutchings’ Red Hot Jerry and the Michael Munro/Steve Jones Boyzinblue from Bathurst in the second, and then brilliant harness-woman Amanda Turnbull piloted Taihape Sunset from her stables to a win in the third. She backed up to win with her horse at the Blayney Carnival of Cups on Sunday and will take some beating.

Nicky’s Beau (Nathan Hurst/ Mathew McCarthy, Perth-

ville) finished second and Ruby’s Shadow (Nic Dewar/Peter Schiller, Young) third.

“There will also be another runner, the fastest fourth,” Graham added.

“Bossy Alec (Jacqui Ingham/ Lester Hoy, Dubbo) or Coralie Joy (Tom Ison/Richard Williams, Tamworth) will make up the ten runners for what will be a keenly contested race.”

The Gilgandra Cup and Gilgandra Windmill are the feature races on the inaugural carnival set down for next Sunday and money raised on the day will be donated to the Gilgandra Charity Fundraisers.

Ducks dive in for the hams!

DUBBO’S Sunday morning swimmers, aka the Dubbo Ducks, were up early this week with the smell of Christmas hams in the air.

In a pleasing return of the numbers, 22 dived in at the RSL. Most with the incentive of the special treats, some to set themselves for this Sunday’s annual Clive Roots Relay.

This event celebrates the outstanding contribution Clive made to the Digger’s Swimming Club. He was one of the pioneers of the club who was reputed to have taken up swimming after taking a bet on a challenge race and winning!

The inner club relay Clive established was renamed in his honour after his passing in 1975, The late Clive Roots just 12 months after he whose dedication inhad been named only spired one of the longest the second Life member. running sporting events The Clive Roots event in the west. dives off at 9.00 this Sunday morning.

Golfers first to represent Dubbo at State Fourball since 1989!

HELEN LAFFEY and Toni Brown (pictured) achieved what many of our talented ladies had been trying to do for nearly 30 years when they claimed the Western Division Four Ball Best Ball (FBBB) shield at Parkes recently.

This week they are striving to go one better by taking out the NSW Championships played on the beautiful but challenging Bonville Course at Coffs Harbour.

AMAZING VALUE

Toni and Helen began their journey with a convincing win in the Dubbo Ladies BB and then took on all-comers to be crowned Western Division Champions.

SPORT Bowlers sparkle on true blue greens!

LAWN bowlers travelled from all parts of NSW to celebrate with the West Dubbo bowlers last weekend. The club has racked up 60 years and millions of ends since inception in 1957.

The bowlers enjoy their post-match â&#x20AC;&#x153;summariesâ&#x20AC;? in a well-appointed club house, a far cry from the humble wooden shed all

those years ago.

It is a leader in junior development and has a vibrant membership of female and male bowlers who are eager to demonstrate their bias on the greens.

See more Inside Sport and next week we will have a full page of action shots from the Diamond Jubilee.
