DUBBO CITY LIFE Comment by TIM PANKHURST MANAGING EDITOR

There was an elephant in the room...

BUT no-one seemed to want to explain why. That’s a rough description of Monday night’s Dubbo Regional Council meeting which, according to our reporter who attended, Yvette Aubusson-Foley, had standing room only in the public gallery, not to mention an unusually large number of media on hand.

Most were there to find out more about last Thursday’s shock resignation of Council general manager Mark Riley. But most left the meeting disappointed by the distinct lack of detail, Yvette reports.

By the time our deadline arrived this week, there was still no great detail on ‘why’.

See today’s “Council Watch” column in Dubbo Photo News for Yvette’s description of the events of the meeting.

The hapless NBN: our phones have been down

THE poor old NBN seems to be the culprit of a number of Dubbo businesses having their phone services interrupted this month – including the Dubbo Photo News office.

To date I haven’t had much reason to criticise the NBN since it arrived in Dubbo, which seems to be at odds with many other areas of Australia where complaints of slow connections speeds have been common. The only problems we’ve experience or have been told about have been the occasional NBN drop-out which, unfortunately, also takes your phone offline if you’re using one of those VOIP or Netphone services.

But this week, our main phone lines

went offline, and we soon discovered the same had happened to at least two other businesses close to the Dubbo Photo News office.

I generally feel as though I can deal with most common IT problems, but when the helpdesk at our phone company tried to explain what had happened, it went over my head. All I heard was “NBN” and “phone lines not working”.

At time of writing we still hadn’t regained full services. So, if you’re having trouble phoning Dubbo Photo News, it might be better to email us, or fax us (in a quirky twist the fax line is still working!) or, better still, drop in and talk to us face to face like the good old days!

Pointing to a bigger potential problem with the NBN THE problem with our phone lines has me wondering how many other Dubbo businesses have had problems with this new technology. I am aware of at least two that had a lot of problems getting the NBN connected properly in the first place, including losing their main phone number for a while. Most businesses spent a lot of time and money marketing their phone number to the world, so to lose that number and potentially have to start from scratch, is a costly problem.

Criticism was heaped on Kevin Rudd for the pink batts scheme – a lot of money wasted and, sadly, the deaths of four tradies were blamed on the scheme. I’m concerned an unreliable NBN and phone services could also create life-threatening situations, and potentially become Malcolm Turnbull’s equivalent of the “pink batts scheme”.

Granted, the NBN was originally the brainchild of a former Labor Government, then downscaled by Turnbull for cost reasons, but whatever the reason and whichever government is to blame, if someone doesn’t have a landline phone when they need it in an emergency, it could quite possibly create a life-threatening situation.

Supporting the groovy pink message: The boys at Maccas Auto were happy to show their support for the Groovy Booby Bus when it pulled in there last week.

Chief groover and Dubbo Photo News sales guru Donna Falconer snapped this photo of Mick, Tom and Shane. Well done boys!

The haves and the have nots IT’S been one of society’s greatest questions for centuries. Why do so few have so much, and so many have so little?

An article caught my eye last week which listed the 100 largest urban areas by income, according to the latest census data.

The Australian reported that 31 per cent of all Australians belong to “high-income households”, that is households where the combined income is more than $130,000 a year.

At the other end of the scale, 25 per cent of Aussies – or about five million people – live in a household with income of $52,000 a year or less.

That leaves 44 per cent in so-called “middle class Australia”.

Dubbo is listed, somewhere in the middle of the list. Before you read the next paragraph, see if you can guess any of the five urban areas that rank in the top five, that is, the cities that have the highest proportion of high income earners.

The answer is...

Karratha, WA topped the list with 59 per cent of households earning over $130,000 per year, followed by Port Hedland, Darwin, Canberra-Queanbeyan, and Mount Isa. Yes, the mining towns continue to do

pretty well for themselves.

The stats for Dubbo were: 24 per cent high income, 48 per cent middle income, and 28 per cent low income households – which placed us ahead of Parkes, Tamworth and Albury-Wodonga, but below Wagga, Bathurst, Orange and Mudgee.

Before you pack your bags and move to Karratha, keep in mind the cost of living in those higher income-earning towns is also higher.

But these numbers do provide food for thought... what can Dubbo collectively do to not only increase our overall income, but lessen the divide between the haves and the have nots.

A technical glitch with social events LASTLY, an apology from the Dubbo Photo News team that some social events we’ve attended over the past 4-6 weeks haven’t been published as yet. Yes, we do sometimes fall behind a bit when there’s lots happening around town, but in this case we’ve had a technical glitch which meant some events weren’t making it to our Design team. We’re doing our best to get these events in the paper this week and next.

- Until next week, Keep Smiling!

A window on the world of butts

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

LET’S start by asking the question, what are windows in a car for?

There are a few obvious answers like ‘stop grasshoppers from lodging in our hair’ or ‘keep us dry during downpours’.

When a stone flicks up from a passing car, it’s far better a windscreen is chipped than your front teeth and... it’s been that line of thinking in the auto manufacturing world since 1904.

Like any invention, its trial and error, and the first windscreens were literally fashioned out of house windows then modified to fit.

Before windscreen wipers, some windscreens were split in two, horizontally, so if the top section got dirty, you could fold it down and see the road, saving lives in the process.

Windshields weren’t sold as standard until 1915 after which the phrase ‘wearing a glass necklace’ came into vogue as car accidents gave momentum to nasty injuries and were the impetus for the invention of seat belts.

Henry Ford led the charge on creating laminated glass, then shatter-proof glass arrived, followed in 1924 – just in time for the violin case-toting Roaring ‘20s – by bullet proof glass which instantly became standard on American police cars.

By how much windscreens decimated the driving goggle industry possibly hasn’t been measured because it would be a waste of taxpayers’ money, but it spawned other features on a car we take for granted today.

No, not electric engines or driverless vehicles.

Side windows.

These have evolved from bi-cep building, handcranked glass, to today’s multimedia screens which can go up or down with a push of a button or voice activation.

Ironically, the first drive-through restaurant in America opened in 1947 and, one year later, Daimler introduced electric windows in their cars.

They were on to something.

Who would have thought the humble side window could spark a drive-through revolution and become portals to our fast food dreams?

Whether we realise it or not, side windows give us privacy, a sound stage, or peace and quiet and, importantly, protection from the roadside smells we’d rather not smell.

When the window goes down however, it’s transformative.

We get wind in our hair and, as long as the safety-conscious design engineers haven’t positioned that window ledge level with our chin, we can lean our elbow beyond the safety zone, nudge freedom and tell the world, “Hey baby, I’m cool.� (Well, in the ‘70s maybe, while lapping the main).

These days a window that is down can connect the world around us to our playlist and, yes, there are specific lists available for blasting with the windows rolled down, or playing with the window so you look like you’re in a music video.

What that rolled down window doesn’t mean, however, is this: it is not for tossing your dirty, toxic cigarette butt onto the road.

A BIG ISSUE

IN BRIEF

Support groups being hit by 2017 problems

Skate park vandalism jeopardising the amenity

By NATALIE HOLMES

SOME of Dubbo’s support groups are bleeding, with an abundance of online resources said to be contributing to dwindling memberships. Numbers have dropped so much for the Dubbo Diabetes Support Group and the Dubbo Support Group of Arthritis NSW that they have decided to join forces and form one united body.

John Lampard has lived with Type 1 diabetes for 51 years and is a recipient of the Kellion Victory Medal which is presented to long-term sufferers. As secretary of the Dubbo Diabetes Support Group, he says the union is the best solution for both groups.

“There are some members who have both arthritis and diabetes.

A lot of our group suffer from arthritis. The arthritis group has 5-7 members, our group has dropped to as low as nine.

“But there is nothing we can do about it. People are choosing not to join because a lot of the population is still working. We’ve tried night meetings but that didn’t work.”

With everyone in the group getting on in years and the severe lack of new members, they are limited by what they can do.

“The trouble with the support

group is they are all getting older,” John said.

“Diabetes NSW used to rely on them for fundraising but our members are getting too old to go out and do it. They keep members updated through electronic media but a lot of our members don’t have that.”

But John says he doesn’t want the support group to close because there is still much to learn.

“I feel there is a need there for diabetes education. I ask my GP about certain things but there are matters that come up at meetings. We have guest speakers, social outings and mixing with others. We haven’t officially merged but next year, all meetings will have alternating topic areas such as podiatry, dental, optical and diet.

“All these little things help if it’s going to keep the group together. It is going to help us move forward. If we tried to keep going on our own, it would be a problem.”

Dubbo Support Group of Arthritis NSW convenor Heather Exelby is looking forward to the merger and believes the diminishment of such groups is a sign of the times.

“In this digital age, some people are looking for support on-

line. With both people working (in a household), it’s easier to grab their support online. Groups are struggling, it’s definitely a generational thing.

“We are disappointed because we want to keep supporting them...with both of us having diminishing numbers because of changes in society, we thought we’d join forces. It will make it easier if we have a bigger pool to pull from.

“Both arthritis and diabetes are prevalent in the community and some people have both. We feel this is a viable solution.”

The two groups haven’t final-

ised any formal details yet such as a new name but they held a joint Christmas party this week.

Their first official meeting will be held in February.

“It’s a bit experimental at this stage, for the last couple of meetings, but we plan to be bigger and better,” Heather said.

“We are hoping that it’s going to go well next year. It could open up a generation of health support and be a way of keeping support groups going into the future.”

❱❱ IN DEPTH: Help for carers is vital for our future: see Dubbo Weekender.

A REPLACEMENT shade cloth installed three weeks ago over the Victoria Park skate park has again been vandalised.

Council’s Manager of Recreation and Open Space Ian McAlister said it is disappointing that the cost of repairing damage done by vandals is jeopardising the amenity of one of Dubbo’s most popular parks for youth.

“This is the second vandalism attack on this very important piece of park infrastructure in the past eight months,” he said.

“Thankfully, CCTV cameras were installed recently and the incident has been reported to police,” he said.

Clinic of the Year!

Dubbo Acupuncture has won the prestigious Clinic of the Year award granted by the Australian Traditional Medicine Society (ATMS) Nature and Health, at a glamourous event held in Sydney, on Saturday, November 18, 2017.

“

“This award is very much about natural therapy in Australia. The ATMS was established 33 years ago, and is the biggest natural medicine associations with 11,500 members.

Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine treats so many health conditions.

If you do not have a diagnoses and no one knows what is wrong with you, and you’ve tried everything but nothing’s worked, now is the time to try Chinese medicine. You will have an amazing experience that you will never forget because you will feel better!

Established in 2004, Dubbo Acupuncture has 10 purpose built treatment rooms with a large reception area holding 20 seats. Designed by an interior decorator, the clinic is modern, clean, fresh and relaxing.

Ɉ

Acupuncturist, Chinese medicine herbalist and owner of Dubbo Acupuncture, Raisa, said she was thrilled and honoured to have been nominated as a finalist alongside practitioners from around the country and to have her clinic recognised as Clinic of the Year, is a dream come true.

“It puts Dubbo on the map. Dubbo is now officially home to the best traditional medicine clinic in Australia.

Other finalists are from Brisbane and Melbourne, but we have proven Dubbo isn’t just as good, but the best in the country,” Raisa said.

“The treatment rooms are calm, with privacy, dim lights, soft music, electric blankets and warm lamps for the winter and air conditioning all year around!

Uniformed staff are well trained, polite and friendly. All our patients get acknowledged immediately as they walk into the reception area.

“All incoming phone calls are answered within three rings. We provide excellent professional services and we want our patients to feel special; not just OK, but WOW! That is what we call a good service!

“Obviously there is always room to improve, so we have staff meetings regularly to discuss how we can improve to constantly provide the best services.”

“I have excellent staff who are friendly to every patient who walks into to our clinic. They are made to feel welcomed and special and are addressed by name.

Raisa was informed in September this year, that Dubbo Acupuncture had become a finalist in the Clinic of the Year category.

“On the awards night, I was holding my breath and waiting for each category to be announced. I did not hear my name and business name until last, when they said ‘The Clinic of the Year Winner: Carter Chiropractic and Dubbo Acupuncture,” said Raisa.

“I was thrilled and excited and could not believe it is me going up to the stage to collect the award. I was speechless and almost in tears. I could not stop smiling. It is a big reward and a very big deal to a practitioner who gives 100 percent of herself to help others who are not well.

“Since opening Dubbo Acupuncture almost 15 years ago, I have been able to help thousands of unwell people, Most of them had tried everything to solve their health issues but nothing has worked.

“I have endless stories about getting people on the move again, stopping some who were suicidal because of their chronic pain and depression. I could write a book,” Raisa said.

Chinese Medicine requires five years undergrad study in university and requires a lot of clinical practice. Most students go to China in their final year and work in a hospital for 12 months.

“It is not a weekend course. I spent six years studying at RMIT Melbourne. Acupuncture is an art and science combination. Patients feel very relaxed and often fall asleep and they always look forward to their next visit.

“Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine treats so many diseases. If you do not have a diagnoses and no one knows what is wrong with you, and you’ve tried

everything but nothing’s worked, now is the time to try Chinese medicine. You will have an amazing experience that you will never forget - because you will feel better!

Raisa has a nursing background and after raising three children, twin daughters and a son, with her husband, Adam, she began to think about a new career.

“I was always interested in health and when my husband suggested I study acupuncture, I thought yes, that was a great idea. I come from China, and acupuncture is no stranger to me at all.

For three years Raisa travelled regularly to Melbourne RMIT University to do post graduate study.

“It was a very busy household but with my husband’s support, I decided to pursue my dream! My study time was 9pm to 1 am, every night, but I never thought about giving it up. Dubbo needed an acupuncturist!

Raisa opened her clinic in 2004 and got a good response immediately.

“I juggled home life with fully booked days with my patients so I could give them all the best care. Then I decided to take a further three years study of Chinese Herbal Medicine, to help people who could not receive regular acupuncture treatments because they live far from Dubbo, but could still take herbs home and continue the treatment. It worked very well.”

Raisa obtained her two master degrees with distinction while running her very busy, successful clinic.

“It is a dream come true for me but most importantly I have helped many people change their life for the better. When many patients come to see me, they have already tried everything and nothing’s worked. Most of them have suffered for a long time and are very depressed.

“The acupuncture and herbal medicine combination has helped so many patients who travel from all over the region to Dubbo, from even as far as Broken Hill.

“Winning the Clinic of the Year Award means a lot to me. It shows if you have a dream, pursue it, it will come true if you going to be dedicated, persistent and work hard for it!

“Now I have put Carter Chiropractic and Dubbo Acupuncture on the map of Australian Natural Medicine. I will try harder to do my best to help as many people as I can, I often say to my husband, ‘I will never retire’. To change the life for people so they can be happy and healthy again. That is my passion!”

A HERITAGE centre to commemorate the life and times of the Anglican Brotherhood of the Good Shepherd in Dubbo, was officially opened on Thursday, November 23.

Also known as the ‘Bush Brothers’, the early members were mostly recruited from the UK and ministered on horseback into rural and remote NSW from their Dubbo hub.

One brother, Ronald Erskine, initiated ministry to Aboriginal reserves, riding a bicycle thousands of miles. A replica of his bike is on display at the new centre, along with his photograph and story.

The centre consists of two rooms and includes items such as bound copies of the Bush Brother Magazine from 1903 to 1980, a collection of original keys from Brotherhood House in Dubbo, and even an antique set of bone-handled silver cutlery.

“Many of the Brothers came to

Australia from well-to-do families, so when they ate, they ate well,” said Maurice Campbell, a member of the parish.

Maurice is also a military historian. Behind the museum is a small monument to two of the Brothers who died in WWI, Wilfrid Hartridge and Douglas Jackson.

Their photographs and stories, researched by Maurice, are included in the heritage centre.

An unveiling was held on the verandah of the former home of the ‘Bush Brothers’ which they occupied from 1903 and which now houses offices, meeting rooms and the new museum.

Former Bush Brother and Bishop of Rockhampton, the Right Reverend Godfrey Fryar, conducted the unveiling.

YESTERDAY, November 29, marked the 75th anniversary of the death of one of Dubbo’s most celebrated veterans. Rawdon (Ron) Hume Middleton VC was one of the few members of the RAAF to receive a Victoria Cross. He went to Dubbo High School and worked as a jackeroo near Parkes before serving with the RAAF. He enlisted on October 14, 1940, in the Royal Australian Air Force and learned to fly at Narromine and in Canada. By November 28, 1942, he had completed 28 operational flights.

On his last sortie over Italy, a shell exploded in the cockpit.

Mortally wounded, he flew a further four hours so his crew could parachute to safety over England.

To avoid populated areas, he landed his plane in the channel where he died.

Next step for rail maintenance facility

ASSESSMENTS will begin today at the proposed site for the new rail maintenance facility to be based in Dubbo.

Once completed, Dubbo will become a maintenance hub for the NSW fleet of XPT, Endeavour and Xplorer trains.

It’s estimated the project will bring 100 jobs to the Orana region for the next 20 to 25 years.

Member for Dubbo Troy Grant will today welcome the Regional Rail Program early investigative works team as they take the first steps towards making the rail maintenance facility for Dubbo a reality.

The team will be on the ground in White Street to undertake preliminary investigations to assess the suitability of the site for the new facility, Mr Grant said.

Contractors will undertake the ge-

otechnical, soil and ground water assessments on behalf of Transport for NSW. Plans for the facility were announced in August by Mr Grant and Deputy Premier John Barilaro.

“It is great to see the government getting on with the job with this important project for the Dubbo region,” Mr Grant said.

IN BRIEF

Council to investigate changing “confusing” electoral wards system DUBBO Regional Council will look into the feasibility and appropriateness of changing the electoral wards system that was in place for the September local government election.

Representations will be made to the Minister of Local Government and the Member for Dubbo Troy Grant to consider the changes.

Councillor Greg Mohr said at Monday’s council meeting that during the recent election he felt the ward system caused the high number of informal votes due to confusion.

“We need to get it right. Wellington does need representation. It needs a voice,” he said.

In an October meeting, former general manager Mark Riley was asked to report on the process and regulations around potentially abolishing wards and introducing a popularly elected mayor.

His report recommended that an abolition of the wards would address the issue of elector confusion and allow electors to vote for any candidate nominated. It would also allow for a popularly voted mayor.

IN BRIEF

Orana Mall owners object to development of Southlakes Shopping area COMET Australia Pty Ltd (trading as Orana Mall) general manager, Steve Gooley, addressed the Dubbo Regional Council meeting from the public gallery at Monday’s (November 27) Ordinary Meeting, objecting to aspects of planning proposal (R16-5) in Southlakes Estate.

Comet Australia Pty Ltd, which is owned by the Bachrach Naumburger Group, has invested $30 million into the Mall after extensive consultation, based on an Area Zone Strategy and accused council of

“spot zoning which reduces confidence”.

The area of land proposed to be zoned B1 Neighbourhood Centre under the provision of the Dubbo Local Environmental Plan 2011 limits the total retail floor space of any centre to 5000m2, which MR Gooley says is ample space for a large supermarket.

Comet Australia Pty Ltd complained about the former Dubbo City Council’s alleged anti-competitive practices to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) in 2012.

THE 2017 Dubbo Fireworks New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve celebrations will run just that little bit smoother thanks to the time and efforts of the Dubbo NSW Volunteer Rescue Association (VRA).

VRA captain David Shamwell told Dubbo Photo News that being on the VRA team doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ever have to be about attending roadside accidents â&#x20AC;&#x201C; there are many other skills volunteers bring to the organisation, including non-operational roles such as helping with fundraising, publicity and supporting major events. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a policeman, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got emergency service workers, electricians, business managers, truck drivers.

What we really lack is someone who can write grants for us. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not government-funded and rely on donations from wherever we can get them,â&#x20AC;? said

David.

Committee members behind Dubbo Fireworks are heeding that call for support at their New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve event this year, donating a large portion of the eveningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s takings to the Dubbo VRA. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of our equipment is specialised and expensive. Each of our trucks has a hydraulic â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;jaws of lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and they cost around $10,000-$20,000 each. With the pumps and hoses, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be about $100,000 worth hydraulics right there. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We also provide crime scene lighting, evidential searches, assistance and manpower at accidents, and set up road blocks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nothingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s handed to us on a platter,â&#x20AC;? David said.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the reasons youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see the VRA members supporting events like the Titan Mud Run, see them at Bunnings cooking up a barbecue, or grate-

fully receiving donations from the Orana Mall market stalls, Lions Club, RSL club and more.

When it comes to supporting the community, whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a traffic accident or a kitty stuck up a tree, the VRA has a truck on standby 24/7.

Their mission is: â&#x20AC;&#x153;A helping hand, anywhere, anytime. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t charge. We turn up. We save the community hundreds and

Two Dubbo College HSC graduates win $5000 scholarships

Top Dubbo Day Awards honour goes to podiatrist

BREANNA Nolan-Dixon, 17, and Karee Carney, 18, made applications for the 2018 Nestle AYDP Girls’ Academy Scholarships and were pleasantly surprised to receive news of their success.

The scholarships by Nestle are two of only four issued Australia-wide.

Open to Year 12 students in Girls’ Academies throughout Australia, the Dubbo College pair were thrilled to know they would receive $5000 towards their continuing education.

Breanna plans to co-enrol in TAFE and CSU Dubbo to study social work, and Karee has been accepted to Macquarie University but hopes to study a Bachelor of Secondary Education in Humanities and Social Science at the University of Sydney.

THE 2017 Tony McGrane Award was presented to podiatrist Nicole Johnstone who has spent eight years volunteering at the Dubbo District CanAssist branch, where she helped raise much-needed funds to support cancer patients throughout the region.

The Dubbo Day Awards are presented annually to mark the anniversary of Dubbo’s gazettal as a village on November 23, 1849.

Other 2018 recipients included Jason Dearmer, Tom Gray, Fiona Prentice, Helen Kinsey, Frances Ellis, John Allen, Garry and Yvonne Gowans, Larry and Helen Yeo, Matt Hansen, Margaret Kelly, Rod Crowfoot, Rodney Nott, Lee Judd, Peter Judd, Robin Payne and Marie Tucker.

CAREERS

IN BRIEF

The journey from trainee to trainer

By JOHN RYAN IN just eight months from now, Sam Brown will clock up 10 years at Fletchers International.

She moved down from Gilgandra after working her first year out of high school in childcare and studying at the same time “I had friends from high school who were working here and they got me the application and the rest is history. My friends were both male and female so I knew there were a lot of girls working here, lots of them travel in each day,” Sam said.

“Fletchers is actually pretty important for Gil. There’s not a lot of jobs in Gilgandra, there’s not many opportunities there so it’s pretty important, people there look at this plant and think we really need it.

“A lot of people from Gil have actually moved to Dubbo themselves, just so they can work here. A lot live here but some still do the commute to start at five o’clock in the morning,” she told Dubbo Photo News.

Sam got an entry level job and didn’t think too much about moving up the ladder. In fact until she got a feel for the plant, she wasn’t aware there were multiple career pathways.

“I started as a labourer, cleaning floors and just getting into it, and then I worked my way up.

Then I was in Quality Assurance for a few years and then I started as Training Officer this year,”

Former Gilgandra resident Sam Brown has worked with Fletcher International for nearly a decade. She says the business provides employment opportunities for Gil people too.

Back to school after the triumph of a spectacular STUDENTS from Cobar High, Narromine High, Nyngan High, Peak Hill Central, Trangie Central and Walgett Community College return to school this week after participating in the Schools Spectacular at the Qudos Bank Arena at Sydney’s Olympic Park.

They joined 5700 Schools Spectacular performers to put on a show which will be broadcast next month on the 7 Network.

A parallel event called “SpecFest” ran outside the arena to showcase more student talent through interesting displays and activities to entertain the audiences lining up for the shows.

The show was supported by an 80-piece symphony orchestra and 2700-voice choir.

Sam said.

“It’s really good, especially being a female working out here, that you can work your way up. If you work hard you get opportunities and you’ve got a lot of people around you that help you, you can just ask for anything.”

She loves the culture of training and assistance as being core values of the operation.

“We give everyone the help they need, they’ve only got to ask.

If they’re struggling on anything they could ask me, they could ask anyone else on the floor basically.

“I think everyone out here is pretty happy.

CHRISTMAS HAMS TO BE WON AT THE

“Lester Daly is probably one of the best guys out here – he helps anyone, he’s amazing. He inspired me and I only started as Training Officer this year and he has been one of those who’ve actually helped me a lot in my new job. Anytime I’d get stuck on something he’d come down to help me,” she explained.

Sam said she never forgot how that mentoring inspiration created an urge in her to keep pushing her boundaries and taking on new challenges – and now she’s enjoying creating that spark in people she’s teaching.

“I just enjoy helping people.

Knowing that you’ve helped someone, that you can actually train them to do things for themselves, is rewarding. I get a lot of people who thank me for my help, and at the end of the day they’re asking what they can do for me,” Sam said.

“I leave work every day feeling pretty worn out, but happy – happy that I’ve actually helped people, and showed them how to do their jobs.

“I want to keep working my way up. I love learning new things and, once I’ve accomplished something, I want to move on to the next step,” Sam said.

IT’S A RECORD! Hilarious entertainer and star of BBC-UK’s Officially Amazing TV show, Cherry Yoshitake, aka Mr Cherry, is arguably Japan’s most dedicated record-breaker. Amongst others, Mr Cherry holds the record for Most apples bobbed in one minute – he achieved a total of 37 pieces of fruit at Oasispark in Kakamigahara, Gifu, Japan, in October 2015. The rules include making sure each apple weighs at least 142g and that the stalks are removed before the attempt starts.

Dubbo Photo News November 30-December 6, 2017 EDUCATION

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

New school aims to teach skills for the 21st Century

By JOHN RYAN DUBBO students will have the choice of an education that culminates with internationally-recognised accreditation â&#x20AC;&#x201C; rather than the NSW HSC â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as early as next year.

The Central West Leadership Academy is an elective stream school for gifted children in the local region that will open next year with a class catering for Years 3 to 6.

Principal Mandi Randell said the definition that will be used to define â&#x20AC;&#x153;giftednessâ&#x20AC;? will have a far broader range than most educational institutions use.

She said many institutions rely mainly on academic tests in subjects such as Maths and English to see if students are gifted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We use all the domains of giftedness, so you could be gifted with your interpersonal skills, you could be a smart and hard worker but can really connect people and get them on board; (you could be) an amazing dancer or painter or musician, or academically gifted, or great with technology,â&#x20AC;? Mandi told Dubbo Photo News. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We offer this pathway of entrance thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s different from other places. If you have the dedication, you have the passion, and you have that great work ethic, then you can come in with this group of people,â&#x20AC;? she explained, adding that students will be in the same room with a wide range of other skills. She believes that mix will further and improve each studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability as a learner and what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to achieve in each project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a 21st Century â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;skills schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;,â&#x20AC;? Mani continued. â&#x20AC;&#x153;21st Century skills look at creativity, problem solving and community engagement, computer programming, and learning global-mindedness.â&#x20AC;?

For many people, these skills

Mandi Randell, Central West Leadership Academy principal: â&#x20AC;&#x153; Despite there being a lot of schools in Dubbo doing great things, many parents want something different but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to, or canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford, to send their kids to boarding school.â&#x20AC;? PHOTO: DPN

are like a foreign language.

In the 21st Century, people need to learn how to interact â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and not just in our local customs and settings â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you want to have a business that trades internationally, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s differing customs and modes of communication (to learn)

` 21st Century skills look at creativity, problem solving and community engagement, computer programming, and learning global-mindedness... a

and so the aim of the Central West Leadership Academy is getting kids to have this interpersonal skill to navigate new situations,â&#x20AC;? Mandi said.

The selective program is planned to go from Years 3 to 10, with the school opening next year with one class.

Next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Year 6 intake will roll into Year 7 and then thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a dedicated Year 7 class, and the school will then keep expanding all the way up until students reach the International Baccalaureate (IB) in Year 11. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The International Baccalaureate is a worldwide-acknowledged international accreditation for the end of high

school. It translates directly into an ATAR and it actually scales very well compared to the HSC,â&#x20AC;? Mandi explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can apply directly into universities around the world so you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to worry about interstate issues with different cut-offs and different systems, even within Australia,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nationwide, our federal education minister has prioritised that we need every kid to take Maths, every kid to take Science, and those targeted priorities are fundamental to the IB program.

So everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just taking some subjects when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re 16 years old, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a broader, more liberal education â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Maths, Science, English, they take a second language, they take one History, everybody has to take an Arts class (such as) Art, Drama, Dance, Theatre or the like. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They also have to do Creativity, Action and Service, so every kid has to do 50 hoursâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; community service as a part of their high school accreditation, which is great, as well as Sport. So it really gets them engaged in their local and global community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d encourage parents to give me a call. A lot of gifted children do under-achieve in the classrooms that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want people to worry if their child gifted enough,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Mandi believes thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big gap in the local market and that many parents are searching for answers. Despite there being a lot of schools in Dubbo doing great things, many parents want something different but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to, or canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford, to send their kids to boarding school. â&#x20AC;&#x153;An aspect of our school is that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have Tinker Time on Friday afternoons, much like that genius hour that Google has where kids will identify â?ąâ?ą Continued page 16

Piles of tiles donated to community

By SARAH HARVEY GROWING up in the small towns of Cobar and Goodooga, Ben Machul and Anna Cohen know exactly how important it is to give back to the community, and through their new business they’re doing exactly that.

The couple are the new owners of Orana Flooring and Décor, formally known as PJ Tiles, and are on a mission to offload the enormous amount of discontinued

tiles that were leftover when they took over the business.

It all started when Anna made a phone call to her son’s school offering them some, and since then St Johns College, TAFE Western, Community Corrections and the Dubbo Men’s Shed (DMS) have all made use of them.

“I said (to the schools), ‘I’ve got these tiles here, the kids can write a note to their parents and glaze them for Christmas presents, or use corkboard and make them

into drink coasters,’ and since then it’s gone global.

“Kevin (Sinclair) from the Men’s Shed came up and I said to him, ‘You can make them into tables and sell them to make money for the shed,’ and he said, ‘Oh that’ll pay for our afternoon tea!’

“I said, ‘Oh no, I’m sure you can sell them for more than that!’”

Anna told Dubbo Photo News.

The couple have big plans for the future of their store and will be repainting, refurbishing and

resigning the business over the coming weeks. They plan to stock and sell a wide range of flooring and décor such as baths, vanities and taps, with exclusive brands available, and will feature a variety of tradie’s gear and a kid’s corner.

With a huge range of discontinued tiles still left over, Anna encourages anyone who’s interested in using them to contact the store on 6882 1777 or visit them at 100 Erskine Street, Dubbo.

Leadership Academy is a new school for Dubbo in 2018 ❱❱ Continued from page 15

something they want to do that has a personal, school or community improvement project, and they’ll use design and thinking principles,” Mandi said.

“They’ll go through how to make change and even that sort of personal engagement and learning community engagement

all the way from Year 3 keeps them more personalised and engaged, they get to have agency and authority and some agency and control over what they’re learning, for finding their passions and trying to make our town a better place by using what they’re learning.”

Mandi grew up in smalltown Iowa in the USA

and, as a 15-year-old, her teacher organised for her to be a student representative on the city council’s Landcare-style group.

“I ended up learning about wetlands and marshes which I didn’t know much about at 15, and it absolutely changed my life,” Mandi said.

“I ended up writing grants to preserve a wet-

land area. That was a huge thing to see as a 15-yearold: that I could make a difference to the environment, I could make a difference in my local region, and what was important for me in that was I could learn that my future was wherever I wanted it to be.

“I didn’t have to go to a city, I could learn to make change in whatever com-

munity that I was in.

“I think an important part of what the Leadership Academy is offering is that vision, that citizenship – it’s the rent you pay for living on the planet. We all have to chip in to be better, to make the world better, and how to explicitly do that is the core of who we are,” she said.

Research dollars for cardiovascular disease DUBBO heart health advocates will be happy to hear the Government’s record investment of $24 million to support landmark research into cardiovascular disease

by The George Institute for Global Health.

With 4.2 million Australian adults having a disease of the circulatory system, including 1.2 million with cardiovascular conditions such as stroke and heart disease, research investment is critical.

This is the National Health and Medical Research Council’s third largest grant for medical research in Australia and the largest investment into research on cardiovascular disease – a disease which many Australians do not know they have.

‘Tis the season to be stressed

By SARAH HARVEY IT’S the time of year when stores begin to fill the aisles with tinsel, houses light up and children count down the sleeps until the big man in red squeezes down their chimney, but while the Christmas season is meant to be full of joy and laughter, for many it can intensify feelings of anxiety, stress and loneliness.

Whether you’ve lost a loved one, recently gone through a divorce, are battling mental illnesses or you’re struggling to compete with the financial pressures of Christmas, it can be hard to find any happiness in the holidays, but a group of community organisations are here to lend a hand, helping you get through this Christmas season.

The NALAG Centre for Grief and Loss has been operating in Dubbo for 37 years, providing support and counselling to individuals who have experienced loss. Grief Counsellor and OAM Trudy Hanson has over 35 years’ experience in her field and has witnessed firsthand the spike in referrals over the Christmas period.

“We’re flat out, it’s one of our busiest times of the year. For those who have recently lost a loved one it can often lead to depression, resulting in people becoming overwhelmed with their loss and isolating themselves, refusing invitations. It becomes a very lonely time,” Trudy told Dubbo Photo News.

“Often people won’t talk about the person who’s died but it’s important to open up the conversation and most people want to do that, they don’t want to forget them. Our new understanding of grief is that we want to have a continuing bond with them, and it might be something as simple as making Grandma’s cake for Christmas desert,” she said.

But death isn’t the only loss people may experience; it could be the loss of a job, a divorce or rift in the family, or having a family member in jail.

“When families are affected by divorce it can lead to arguments about who’s going to have the kids this year. Unfortunately for a lot of kids, parents won’t let go of the angst between each other and it’s the children who are left to suffer.

It’s important to make space for negotiation,” said Trudy.

Trudy encourages anyone who knows someone experiencing loss or grief to reach out and offer a helping hand. sking if some“Sometimes just asking ping them to one’s okay and helping plan for Christmas iss a miracle hat little bit in itself by having that of extra help.

All are welcome to attend – for more information on the event visit the NALAG website, phone the office on 6882 9222 or visit the office in Welchman St. Over the years the costs associated with Christmas have skyrocketed, leaving many families struggling to comply with the financial expectations. According to a report compiled by ASIC’s Money Smart, last year Australians planned to spend $955 at Christmas time, but the average credit card debt post-Christmas totalled to a staggering $1666.

Health Promotions Officer for Mental Health and Drug and Alcohol at Western NSW Local Health District, Emma Teuma, said these high expenditures can have a significant impact upon an individual’s mental health.

“Over Christmas people feel the need to spend extra money that they may not have. A lot of people do go on to eexperience anxiety or depression, and it can also be worsened by not wanting to burden their friends or family so they may not talk abo about their feelings,” Em Emma explained. w So why do we feel pressure pressured to overspend

Help for carers vital for future

ON the anniversary of his stroke, Victor Brook told of the day that changed his life forever.

“My partner Heather – it threw both of our lives into chaos. It’s a big challenge.”

Victor is now the facilitator of the Dubbo Stroke Support Group and says that it’s about helping people – both sufferers and carers. And it doesn’t matter to him how many people attend the meetings because every person is valuable.

“If you can help one person cope, then it’s a good thing,” he said. “If one person turns up, it was worth it.”

After hearing that the diabetes and arthritis support groups of Dubbo were set to merge due to their dwindling numbers, Victor said participants can get a lot more out of face to face contact than other means of support.

“A lot of them look for support from the computer and not from any one person,” he said.

“They don’t get that personal experience from something online.

Someone that’s had a stroke could say a lot more, do a lot more for you. It makes it more personal.”

Victor said that Dubbo Base Hospital stroke coordinator Debra Sloane was also of great benefit for the group.

“She talks to us and we help each other where we can.”

Victor said the carer sometimes needs more support than the stroke victim.

“It’s hard to know where to get help from. They burn out because they’ve got no-one to back them up.”

Lorna White is a carer herself and the Parkinson’s Support Group coordinator for Dubbo.

She says that low attendance for their group is more about feelings than other factors.

“When Parkinson’s gets to a certain stage, they feel more vulnerable to leave the house,” she explained.

“I know it’s hard to walk through the door into a meeting room but if you come as a newly-diagnosed person, you will be okay – I hope that people will see that. It’s a bit more daunting if you’ve had Parkinson’s for 15 or 20 years.”

Lorna believes that there is up to 200 people in Dubbo with Parkinson’s Disease. But hardly any of them have accessed the support group. She would support a united health group.

“I’d give it a go,” Lorna said.

“We had a meeting this month and there were three people there. I don’t know why but people have lost focus. Maybe they don’t want to talk about it, maybe doctors are the missing link. I am in the process of getting brochures made to put into chemists and doctors’ surgeries.

“Joining forces with other groups could be beneficial. We could have a discussion and see where it goes.

“A lot of my support people are getting older and passing away or moving into nursing homes.”

A Parkinson’s NSW education seminar will be held at Dubbo RSL from 9.30am to 2pm on Fri-

day, December 1.

“I’m hoping this seminar will bring a few people out,” Lorna said.

John Allen of the Dubbo Prostate Cancer Support Group does not have the same problem.

Their group has been going strong for 21 years.

“Some of the other groups are struggling. But we get 15-20 at times from a group of 35-40,” he said. “We vary our meetings.

Once a month we have it so that sufferers or carers can talk about it.

“Combining groups could work but I don’t know whether members would want it.”

The Prostate Cancer Support Group’s 21st birthday party will be held at 7.30pm on Tuesday, December 5, at Dubbo RSL Club.

The Alzheimer’s and Dementia Support Group is also very well-attended.

Coordinator tor Kath Readford is a professional nal dementia counsellor who runs uns four support groups for demenentia carers in the region and says ys there is often a waiting list for support.

“It’s usually well-attended,” d,” she said.

“Of course, not every carer rer

wants to come to a group. That is for every carer to decide. In the Dubbo group, there’s 10-15 people that attend.

“We don’t fundraise, we just have lunch and it’s offered to carers of people with dementia only. There’s lots of people with dementia so I don’t need to go looking for people.”

One fact that Victor highlighted is how helpful support groups can be for those in need. And more people joining support groups will keep them going for longer.

“After a stroke, you can suffer depression. It can be incredibly hard.

“What I’d like is for people to come to push it along and keep it going.

“Without the support groups, I don’t know where a lot of people would be.”

Community consultancy over tree canopy takes root

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY FOUNDERS of the ‘SOS Trees Dubbo – Save our Street Trees of Dubbo’ Facebook page publicly addressed council on Monday night, November 27, to express gratitude that community consultation on the issue of tree canopy removal – or saving – appears to be the new norm.

“The tree street plan was removed in 2004 and when it was reintroduced in 2016 the consultation with community was not effective,” Belinda Edmondson, SOS Trees Dubbo said.

“We look forward to moving forward with council and to a more transparent consultative process.

“We need a street tree strategy which values our tree canopy. For too long the community has been forced into a reactionary stance,” Barbara Sutherland, SOS Trees Dubbo, said.

On Monday, November 20, Dubbo Regional Council recommended that a committee be formed to review all activities relevant to the Urban Street Tree Removal Policy.

“Dubbo Regional Council has a responsibility to the community to effectively manage the street trees of the urban areas of Dubbo, Wellington and the villages to ensure that the quality and extent of the urban forest improves over time,”

councillor Stephen Lawrence said as chair of the Infrastructure, Community and Recreation Committee meeting on November 20.

“The community has expressed a desire to be more involved in the discussion regarding the improvement of the public urban forest, especially where street trees are removed for the replacement/upgrading of civil infrastructure,” he said.

“What we’ve always said is that, traditionally, council had not been transparent or consultative.

There was no strategy management of the street trees. We had lots of meetings with council and we asked to be involved in the street tree plan that was being developed but council, at that time, said no,” Barbara told Dubbo Photo News.

“We’ve been speaking to Mayor Shields and Councillor John Ryan, and other councillors, and we’ve received very positive feedback in relation to our concerns. The idea that community members may be on that committee is something that we’ve been trying to push for a long time. This is a huge step forward,” she said.

The committee’s formation is to review proposed removal and/or replacement of trees required to complete infrastructure projects.

Part of the committee’s role would be to undertake a review of

Council’s strategic master plan for the city’s tree scape for the consideration of Council, following a community consultation process.

It’s also been recommended the Dubbo Regional Council Community and Recreation director Murry Wood develop a draft Council Policy for Urban Street Tree Removal for the committee’s review and consideration of Council.

“For a long time Dubbo had no plan. Council, at that time, said, ‘No, we’ll consult with you at the end of the process,’ which is an unusual way to go about things.

Their means of consultancy was to put the draft plan on the website, then seek feedback,” Barbara said.

“Firstly the website didn’t work so there would have been the case that council would have said we got no response. One of our members identified the issue and, to their credit, council did extend the consultation period.

“However, council didn’t consider anything that was raised by

community members other than to respond to say they’d received those submissions in writing.

There was no real consultation.”

The SOS Trees Dubbo Facebook was started in February 2015 after the removal of the London Plane trees from Erskine Street in front of the Western Star Hotel to between the railway and Aldi, which were natives.

“The removal of trees on Talbragar Street between the railway and Aldi was as a result of a development application that was approved, but the only work done was to remove the native trees which provided much-needed shade and shelter and food for native birds. You will see the sign indicating the development will open in 2014!” Barbara said.

SOS Trees Dubbo are due to meet with Mayor Ben Shields, director Community and Recreation Murray Wood and director Infrastructure and Operations Chris Devitt this week.

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 ••• When will the new section of footpath/cycleway along Macquarie Street south (past the water treatment plant) be completed?

The Manager Transport and Emergency Steve Clayton provided this response: The section of footpath recently completed along Macquarie Street (south of Huckle Street towards Fitzroy Street) was completed by private contract associated with an approved residential development.

Footpath construction may be included as a condition of consent for new Development Applications which contribute to the overall network of footpaths as well as providing pedestrian access to new developments.

There are no current plans for additional footpath construction in this area. Future footpath construction is considered annually in the Annual Operational Plan and Budget.

Other extensions of the footpath and cycleway network are taken as opportunities and additional funding arises.

••• We have put additional questions to council this week. Council has advised us we will have a response to these by next week.

OPINION & ANALYSIS

Marking time to the beat of our new council

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY IT was a very solemn mood after a Committee of The Whole (CTW) meeting was held following the Dubbo Regional Council ordinary meeting of Monday, November 27.

Behind closed doors all ten councillors met to discuss three confidential points including the proposed acquisition of land, the supply of bitumen emulsion/aggregate and – the elephant in the room for the entire evening’s proceedings – the question over what happened to Dubbo Regional Council’s general manager Mark Riley, to cause him to so suddenly resign.

Members of the media were left hanging following the CTW meeting, after being told they could come back in after the behindclosed-doors meeting finished, to ask questions.

Like waiting for black smoke to appear at the top of the Vatican, the waiting game proved too much for several members of the public who engaged in a heated debate at the foot of the chambers stairs, in what appeared to be a long-standing feud, over misunderstandings over Facebook posts at its heart.

The media at least had something to film.

Bound by law, none of the councillors or the mayor could speak about Mark Riley’s departure and were stony faced at the close of

the meeting, exiting quickly stage left, leaving media and some straggling members of the public scratching their heads.

One woman suggested, law or not, the people of Dubbo deserved an explanation. She had attended the meeting in support of Mr Riley.

Another woman told Dubbo Photo News his departure is the best thing for Dubbo, citing complaints or requests for infrastructure seemingly falling on deaf ears.

One reason was officially given, which was the “intention to resign from his employment by mutual written agreement for personal reasons”.

But pushed or pulled may never actually be revealed.

It is not unheard of that council general managers are fired or resign. In February this year, the GM of Wagga Wagga council was sacked, in November 2016 the GM of Narromine resigned, and in Forbes the council GM also resigned, issuing a heartfelt media release on his way out.

Nothing has been forthcoming from Mark Riley at the time of going to print.

During the ordinary meeting this week, the public gallery was packed with standing room only – in part, for other issues on the agenda – but after the public left at least a third of the seats were still

filled by council employees who were whisked away to a private ante-room, probably to learn more about Mark’s departure; information not for public consumption.

The mood in council is one of uncertainty with staff looking over their shoulders wondering are they next?

To resign?

There are definitely questions and people naturally want to know.

Former councillor Lyn Griffiths addressed council during the public forum saying Dubbo Regional Council had “lost one of the best general managers in the state”.

To infer council had mismanaged the handling of their experienced general manager, she pointedly said, “A bad manager can take a good staff and destroy it, causing the best employees to flee and the remainder to lose all motivation.”

Self-employed business person, Bill Kelly, former councillor and former chairman of the now defunct Dubbo City Development Corporation, said, “Some of the hard decisions come with a cost.

Mark Riley is a very decent fellow, but unfortunately the interim administrator appointed him and it’s clear our councillors want to bring change to which Mark Reilly does not agree. A mutual agreement has been agreed.

“I support the councillors and

Mark’s decision to step aside. I believe Dubbo Regional Council will continue to grow,” Mr Kelly said.

Dubbo Cycling Club president Mathew Gilbert spoke about the new council’s willingness to meet with the 130-year-old club, whose current home at No.1 oval is the cause of much anxiety.

“Personally, the new council is a breath of fresh air. They are vastly different from previous administrations. These councillors deserve full support,” Mathew said.

Indigenous businessman, Robert Riley, also gave council his full support saying they were progressive and looking for a culture change and can hopefully drive economic and social change for Dubbo.

Josh Black spoke of an issue regarding the sealing of McLeay Street which is causing elderly residents access issues and, in one case, has reportedly caused a woman to fall on multiple occasions. He showed support to the council. “You’re doing a great job so far,” he said.

Founders of the SOS Trees Dubbo group, Barbara Sutherland and Belinda Edmondson, addressed council. (See a further article on this page for details.)

in Wellington, presenting a 57page master plan for council’s consideration.

At the end of the day, as councillors drifted from public site, the news of Mark Riley’s official resignation still hung in the room.

Until December 1, Chris Devitt will be acting general manager, after which Michael McMahon will replace him. Local Government NSW will undertake recruitment on behalf of Council for the position of general manager.

The documents and considerations in relation to this matter remain confidential to Council.

IT may have been a small protest in numbers, but the nine locals who gathered on Sunday to add their voices to a Nationwide campaign organised online by the charity group “CommunityRun” said the experience was profound.

Large crowds gathering in all major cities across Australia for the “SOS Manus – Evacuate now!” event, joining with the refugees in Manus Island detention centre who last Thursday and Friday sat in peaceful protest with their joined hands held high in resistance to their forced expulsion into another PNG village.

Organisers say the new camps have been reported as incomplete and inadequately serviced and, under PNG policing, their safety is tenuous.

A smuggled video shows officers hitting refugees and dragging them out. Phones kept by the men were confiscated or broken to hinder the release of details to media.

Last Thursday, 12 Australians of the Year signed an open letter calling on the government to restore water, food supplies, electricity and medical services to the refugees, warning it was a “hu-

The local protestors believe the broader Australian public will eventually understand human rights abuses were carried out in our name – they just want their names on the record that they’re recognising that now.

Police seek information on Wello house fires

ORANA Police are hoping the public can help them out with information that may assist in the on-going investigation into two house fires at Wellington over the weekend.

In the first incident police were called to a house fire in Gisbourne Street around 4.30am on Saturday.

Upon arrival fire appliances from Wellington were in the process of extinguishing the fire which completely destroyed a front room to the premises with extensive heat and smoke damage to the rest of the premises.

It was later determined that a number of household items were missing from the premises, likely stolen, and the fire deliberately lit.

In the second incident, police responded to a house fire in Maxwell Avenue around Margaret Evans, Sally Forrstrum, Shirley Colless, Ian George, Val Clark, Margaret 10.30pm on Saturday.

In both fires the premises were unoccupied, the owners being away for the weekend.

These fires follow recent spates of malicious damage acts occurring around Wellington over the past several months with people having their cars damaged at random, rocks being thrown at cars, grass fires set, and people’s homes being vandalised.

Orana duty officer Dan Skelly said Wellington police are following a number of lines of enquiry in all matters but need cooperation from the community in the form of information.

“We rely on the good will of community members to assist us where they can to help us identify those that offend against the community so we can deal with them appropriately by putting them before the court and making them responsible for their actions,” inspector Skelly said.

Information received is treated with strict confidence and can be anonymous, and can be given by calling Dubbo Police Station on 6883 1599.

DUBBO is now home to two new squads of police tasked with targeting domestic violence (DV) in a far more holistic way, an initiative which has come out of the statewide re-engineering project which is shaking up the way the cops are structured.

And when it comes to DV, and the new emphasis on stamping it out and assisting victims, the word is spreading across the community, with large numbers of people calling in to the police stall at Victoria Park last weekend to get advice or show their support.

Senior constable Jan Colbran is the DV liaison officer for the Orana Local Area Command.

“We’re raising awareness of family violence, really bringing it to the attention of the community that it is a problem, and promoting it as an initiative for men to speak up against men perpetrating violence on women,” Jan said.

“Awareness has changed dramatically – because it happened in homes it was hidden. It doesn’t discriminate with its victims and there’s multiple reasons why women don’t report DV, so we have to make sure we get told when and where it’s being perpetrated.

“We had an overwhelming response to the stand on the weekend, doing a lot of work on the programs, Staying Home, Leaving Violence (SHLV), where victims at risk of homicide are case-managed by staff working out of our police station. It’s unique in the state to operate out of the police station and working so closely with us and we have a great working relationship,” she said.

This model of inter-agency collaboration under the one roof has seen amazing results when it comes to speeding up processes and reaction times, breaking down the bureaucratic silos so the scarce dollars allocated to these government programs go a lot further because so much red tape and time-wasting can be slashed.

“They can strongly support and encourage the victims and we can handle the criminal side of the matter – explain how we can help and what we can do,” Jan said “We were taken aback by how many came and it was a real credit to the Dubbo Domestic Violence Prevention Committee, working collaboratively in an incredibly close way.”

7 DAYS • ANALYSIS OF THE WEEK’S NEWS ground while we’re still doing research and developing our planning and coordination,” Dr Piddocke said.

“So it’s a fantastic opportunity for us to get out to communities and see what people think about this, and for their local knowledge and views to really shape development of the National Carp Control Plan.”

Straight 8, no debate

DARRYL BROOKS is most often seen cruising around town in his old Chevvy truck but he was spotted last weekend loading a new toy onto his crane truck to take home, one that was built nearly 70 years ago.

“It’s a 1948 Buick Special and I understand that ’46, ’47 and ’48 were the only three years that they made this particular model,” Darryl said.

“It’s a straight eight with a capacity of 248 cubic inches, or four litres, and I’m taking it out to my place to fix it up and restore it, because I have two more in the shed, a ’46 and a ’47 – so the bits that are missing off this one, I’ve got for it, and that’s the reason I’m taking it on.”

It’s a dogs’ life I’VE always seen Santa photos as a bit of a chore but good to have and was a mite sceptical when I was loaded in the car on Sunday morning to get a Santa Doggy Photo taken up at Pet Barn.

My initial thought was that it was yet another manifestation of “soft” American colonialization of our good ‘ol Aussie values, whatever they’re meant to be.

But you know what – pets are such a part of peoples’ lives that including them in the family at Christmas is a pretty significant thing, and especially when the money raised after costs accrued by the photographer go directly to the RSPCA. Alex Dunkerley was sitting patiently holding Zorro while Santa steadied the much smaller Franklin so they could be poochsnapped for posterity.

Happy Christmas Zorro and Franklin.

Carp Control Plan gets real community input DR TOBY PIDDOCKE was in Dubbo this week telling locals all about the federal plan to wipe out European Carp with the herpes virus that affects just that one type of fish and no other living thing.

He’s project manager for research with the National Carp Control Plan and explained that while there’s been a decade of research already done on this issue, the way the release will be handled, if it does get the go-ahead, is still to be decided.

Those present at the agency and community meetings were enthused to contribute.

OPINION & ANALYSIS LETTERS & FEEDBACK

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

A postal vote on the third bin Editor, I suspect a great deal of ratepayers’ money could be saved if Dubbo Regional Council asked residents, by way of a postal vote, if they want a third bin.

That way, only those who want one would get one. If as I suspect only a couple of hundred people want a third bin, that would save us ratepayers the expense of purchasing several thousand of them.

If council says the cost of a postal survey would be too much, it should provide the cost comparison of the survey to the cost of purchasing a bin for every household in the council region.

If council says it can’t or won’t conduct a survey, it should explain to ratepayers why.

Steve Hodder, Dubbo

Feedback on Greg Smart: The Postal Survey we did not need to have

Editor, I’m glad that Greg Smart’s column was entitled ‘Opinion’ rather than ‘Fact’. I would have had a problem with that.

I ticked the ‘No’ box in the SSM survey. I’m not homophobic, I’m not anti-equal rights, I’m not a Christian fundamentalist, baker or otherwise, I don’t oppose a union between two people of the same gender, and I’m not a hard right conservative. So I take an exception to Mr Smart’s logic that a ‘No’ supporter must be one of those.

Mr Smart scoffs at the idea of a conscientious ‘No’ supporter being held

accountable because he/she refuses to, for example, bake a cake for a same sex couple’s wedding. He suggests the chances of any action being taken against that person as minuscule.

It’s all well and good to shrug these possibilities off as mere fantasies, that is until it actually happens. Then all sorts of foreign matter hits the fan.

The survey question asked me if I supported the introduction of laws to allow same sex marriage. It didn’t ask me if I supported same sex marriage.

These are two different things and that’s where I have a problem.

Too often, in the past, I have seen seemingly harmless, well meaning, proactive legislation manipulated, bent, warped and abused by lawyers, barristers and the courts. And judges don’t give two hoots about sentiment or flexibility. They see a point of law, they see the effect of other legislation on that point of law, and they rule accordingly. And that’s where everything comes unstuck.

The war cry from ‘Yes’ supporters throughout the campaign was, “What gives you the right to prevent me from marrying my partner, what gives you the right to force your opinions and beliefs on me?” Well now the shoe’s on the other foot. SSM supporters can now force their opinions and beliefs on ‘No’ supporters and, unless their rights are protected in the legislation, the ‘No’ supporters have to abide by the whims and fancies of those ‘Yes’ supporters. That’s why I ticked ‘No’. I want to see the rights of both sides of the argument protected.

Sure, politicians pass laws all the time without our input and we elect them in the belief that they will pass

common-sense laws for the benefit of the community. But this is different.

This time the politicians aren’t so sure – so they put it to the people.

This is an opportunity for same sex couples to have their partnerships legally recognised. Let’s hope it is doesn’t harm others in the process.

And until I see watertight laws to that effect, I cannot say I support their introduction.

I respect Mr Smart’s right to express his opinion. I hope he respects mine.

Brian McMullen, Dubbo.

Editor, Regarding Greg Smart’s article in last week’s Dubbo Photo News... just because you didn’t vote for two people who can now get married but nev-

er have children, doesn’t mean you’re a Christian soldier – or what if it does!

Name supplied, Dubbo

It’s in the bag: The ‘first state’ is coming last Yvette Aubussonon nFoley OPINION MY youngest, who is 11, recently begrudged current political will and policy-making on issues like banning single-use plastic bags, as paving a path to a future when he’s old enough to have children of his own, and can’t show them animals that once lived, or oceans that were once pristine.

He’s angry.

Here’s why.

On October 19, 2017, a second reading of the Plastic Shopping Bags (Prohibition on Supply by Retailers) Bill 2016 took place in the NSW Legislative Council.

The first reading was on October 20, 2016, exactly one year before.

In that 12-month period, Queensland and Victoria announced state-wide bans on retailers supplying a certain type of plastic bag – not all plastic bags.

Even these, however, came seven years after South Australia, six years after the Northern Territory and ACT, and four years after Tasmania (2013).

At least the NSW parliament was talking about it but, sweet bejeezus, if banning the supply of certain plastic bags isn’t being tainted by the naysayers as an in-

fringement on individual rights!

The Hon. Dr Peter Phelps commented during October’s reading: “This is a bad bill. It is a bad bill because it goes against the fundamental principles of individual rights and the individual freedom of choice that we have in society.”

Not sure where Dr Phelps has been these last couple of years, but we’ve just had forced council amalgamations and endured a local council election under a ward system which, by law, should have been decided by referendum, so...

What fundamental principles of individual rights and the individual freedom of choice that we have in society was he referring to?

He continued: “Freedom of choice is important on its own, but it also helps us to protect our own health, our own wellbeing and our own environment. I say to those who wish to wear their virtue as badges on their sleeves – who oppose plastic bags and say that they should not exist – that the answer is simple: they need not take plastic bags from supermarkets.

“They can take their own string bags or, in the case of The Greens, hemp bags. People can take whatever bags they want to supermarkets, they do not have to take plastic bags if they do not want to.”

This is true.

So is the old adage, you can take a horse to water, but you can’t make them drink.

You can educate consumers that plastics pollute our oceans, make their way into the food chain and

we eat it, or specifically, that plastic bags kill wildlife, clog the arteries of nature and most do not enter the recycling scheme but end up in drains, rivers and oceans by the millions of tonnes, yet, society is conditioned to the ways of Convenience and they need a methadone program to come off it, just a bit, to make a difference to our kids’ futures.

A good way to change consumer habits is to take away the thing that causes problems. A ban on plastic bag supply can disrupt the reliance on them and compel everyone to choose alternate methods of bringing home the shopping.

Yes, it is convenient to use a bag for 12 minutes then discard it into the environment for 1000 years and feel no responsibility for it after that.

Woolworths, Coles and Harris

` A good way to change consumer habits is to take away the thing that causes problems. A ban on plastic bag supply can disrupt the reliance on them and compel everyone to choose alternate methods of bringing home the shopping... a

Farms’ announcements during Plastic Free July 2017, that they would phase out plastic bags by July 2018, is a sign that they at least know there are alternatives out there and many consumers want them.

During the bill’s second reading, Dr Mehreen Faruqi said: “The voluntary decision by the supermarkets is welcome but it still means that about 10 million plastic bags will end up in the environment.

“The Government must set an example and send a strong signal to business and the community by mandating a consistent approach to stopping plastic pollution across the State.

“It hides behind the container deposit scheme saying it cannot implement both a container deposit scheme and a plastic bag ban. While we know that this Government is incompetent, surely it can chew gum and walk.”

The 11-year-olds of the world today get it. Who will they vote for in the future?

Dr Phelps calls out the ban on behalf of the poorer members of society “who rely on the provision of these bags” and the elderly are also wheeled out, for good measure.

Given Australia has had plastic bags for 30 years and the elderly are the only ones who remember how to shop without them, such as with string bags, their “suffering” can probably be better measured in the amount of ageism they endure on a daily basis instead of

whether or not they have to bring their own bag to a supermarket.

According to the ‘ban the bag’ campaign on change.org, “Australians use an estimated four to six billion plastic bags each year.

That’s 10 million bags every day.

Every minute, we send 7150 plastic bags to landfill. But 80 million plastic bags never make it to landfill, and instead end up in our litter stream, killing 100,000 birds and marine life every year... A plastic bag you use today will share this planet with your great great great great great great great great great great great great grandchildren.

“Many countries around the world, from China to Italy, Papua New Guinea to France, Taiwan to The Netherlands, have already banned plastic bags. But despite supporting in spirit, the banning of plastic bags, the Premier of NSW is yet to lead on the issue. We want them to #BanTheBag so that Australia is not left behind as the rest of the world addresses this serious and avoidable environmental disaster.”

The Hon. Penny Sharpe also said 61 million single-use plastic bags are littered annually. These plastic bags end up in rivers and oceans, polluting marine ecosystems and placing wildlife at risk.

A review of the plastic bag scheme in the ACT saw a 36 per cent decrease in the amount of plastic bag waste sent to land fill in the first two years.

When will NSW be able to claim the same.

Federal Member for Calare WHITE RIBBON DAY IN WELLINGTON

DO YOU HAVE AN EVENT THAT NEEDS FUNDING?

Last Saturday was White Ribbon Day - a day to shine a spotlight on the issue of domestic violence. I attended the Wellington Rotary Club White Ribbon Markets in Cameron Park.

This event was held in conjunction with the Wellington Family and Domestic Violence Collective.

The Wellington Family and Domestic Violence Collective is made up of Robyn Edwards, Nicolla Giddings, Loretta Stanley, Wendy Peachey, Helen Dowling, Sonsera Boles and Colleen Allen work tirelessly in raising awareness for White Ribbon Day. Thanks must also go to Grant Connelly, Gordon Edwards, Maree Thomas, Christy White, Paul West, David Ryan, Tony Graham, Mark Dwyer, Mark Griggs and Roberta Playford whose contributions helped to pull the day together.

In Cameron Park there is a seat with small plaques bearing the names of local residents killed through acts of domestic violence. It’s called the Wellington Remembers Memorial Seat and serves as a way of remembering those victims as well as reminding us of the seriousness and human cost of domestic violence.

SAME-SEX MARRIAGE SURVEY – TIME TO UNITE This week debate on the same-sex marriage legislation kicks off in the Australian Senate.

It is my hope that the debate will be respectful and constructive. Having been through the postal survey process where everyone got their say, this should now be the moment where our nation unites and we come together across the city

CORRECTIVE SERVICES REMEMBRANCE DAY

It should also be the moment where the Australian people see the Parliament at its best. The will of the Australian people now needs to be implemented and this should be done without delay or bitterness. I plan to vote in favour of the same-sex marriage legislation and will be speaking on the bill.

NEW FLAGS FOR WELLINGTON PUBLIC SCHOOL

Friday, 24 November marked Corrective Services NSW Remembrance Day and I attended a service at the Wellington Correctional Centre.

The work of corrective services staff is often performed out of the public eye and is unseen by members of our communities, but it is incredibly important work and we thank them for their service to our state and our country.

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

and the country.

Remembrance Day is a day to pause and reflect on those who have lost their lives in the line of duty and those who passed away while working as prison officers. It is a time when we also recognise the valuable work corrective services staff undertake in what can be a dangerous and challenging profession.

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

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 had a great time at Wellington Public School last week where I was delighted to meet the school leadership team and present them with a new Australian, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander flag. The flags will take pride of place on school grounds!

Thank you for having me Wellington Public School!

NEW MARKET ACCESS A GAME CHANGER FOR REGION’S CHERRY GROWERS The fight for better export market access for our local cherries has been fought for many years. New market access in to mainland China, Indonesia and Vietnam will be a game changer for our local industry that should lead to a boom in jobs, investment and prosperity for our region.

While our local fruit industry now seems to have many friends, this wasn’t always the case.

I started lobbying for better market access for fruit growers when I was the State Member for Orange.

As a part of that campaign, I looked to set up meetings with high profile federal ministers with our local cherry growers. I was told that as a state MP, I would not be welcome at such a meeting because it dealt with federal issues.

Our answer was to organise meetings between our local cherry growers and representatives from foreign consulates at Parliament House in Sydney. I have no doubt this annoyed the Federal Government and umbrella groups like Cherry Growers Australia (who made their annoyance known to our local growers). After all, what could we in the Central West possibly know or do?

Through those rather fruitless years (pun intended) for our local orchardists, there was however one organisation which stood out in terms of help and support. I speak of course of our local NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI) based in Orange.

They set about working on the science of showing that fruit fly is not the problem for our local cherry growers that our commercial competitors make out. They’re still going at it.

The NSW DPI applied for Federal Government grants (which the local growers and I supported) and set about working on the science as the political debate and lobbying swirled around them.

When friends of our local horticulture industry were few and far between, the NSW DPI proved to be one of the truest friends of all. So thank you NSW DPI and also Dr Fay Haynes and her dedicated team of researchers for supporting our local agricultural sector and for playing an important role in laying the platform for this game-changing market access.

HITCHES Wedding preps with easy steps

By ALYSSA HO

A Mudgee Celebration PHOTOGRAPHY BY TIM WHITE GATHER THE GIRLS is focused towards women wanting to get together to celebrate a significant event in the ultimate style - like bride-to-be Katie, who celebrated her Hens Party with a Gather the Girls event recently.

Led by Darling Days, your event is hosted at the old Mullamuddy Homestead in Mudgee, which has been turned into a cocktail tasting house. Packages start at $85 per head which includes your choice of seating or picnic style event, a cocktail on arrival, a yummy lunch, sinful desserts, and of course wine! You can also add extra goodies to your package such as a braids bar, makeup touch ups, henna tattooing and a photographer.

So if you’re looking for something extra special, Gather the Girls and start planning your Mudgee Hens getaway!

Styling & Event Coordination // Darling Days (Tammy Robertson) x Cocktails & Catering // Wellstead Shrubs (Clitie Murdoch) Sweets // Who ate the cake (Natalie Longmuir) Venue // The Tasting House View more // www.thebridesavenue.com.au/ tipsandinspo x = a premium #TBAsupplier

IS the groom the only thing you have organised? Are you crushed under the weight of bridesmaid dress-samples and catering menus? Look no further than your Wedding planning timeline… just stick on the fridge and tick off as you go along.

Alyssa Ho, wedding planner, stylist and invitation designer at Giant Wedding Invitations helps you take a deep breath and follow the simple steps to wedding perfection. If you are able to hire a wedding planner or enlist some helpful members of your bridal party then all the better. Share the love!

Careful planning is the key to success, and be rest assured that you have plenty of time to get it done, just pace yourself and try to complete one thing each day. First you will need to plan your budget, set the wedding date and book your venue. The caterer, photographer, florist, band and celebrant need to be arranged.

Source your music and entertainment, order your cake and send out invites-carefully collecting and monitoring the rsvp’s. Then the fun part- select your bridal party and shop for wedding dress! Make sure your wedding scheme and colors match up with the style of venue and bridesmaid’s dresses. Finalize your reception and ceremony plans, creating a running sheet to hand out to necessary parties on the day.

Next, the important partyou! Make sure you are buffed, primed and preened by getting a mani/pedi, facial, massage..the works! The lead up to your big day should be enjoyable, stay hydrated and well rested in the lead up to the wedding and get ready to flash those pearly whites!

Need more help? Take a look at the helpful visual “Wedding Planning Timeline” on our website, to help keep you in check of what you need to be doing each month for your wedding preparations! Check it out on our “Wedding Tips” blog (www.thebridesavenue. com.au/tipsandinspo/).

Great job prospects at new aged care facility

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY RSL LIFECARE, the new owner and operator of Horizons Retirement Village, expect a new residential aged care facility being built on the Minore Road site will create “nothing less than 30 jobs”.

Scheduled to start construction in early 2018, with an approximate build time of 18 months, a variety of jobs will become available including medical positions such as a 24/7 registered nurse, gardeners, maintenance staff, and more.

RSL LifeCare executive general manager communications strategy, Illana Halliday, told Dubbo Photo News the organisation already has 3000 employees across its network of NSW and ACT facilities, and helping staff thrive is as important as helping residents enjoy life.

“With the right attitude, we are more than happy to support staff to achieve their career goals. We train them and we will help with TAFE studies and creating opportunities across the network. We like staff to stay and be happy, so we take care of them. We follow an 'earn and learn while you work' model,” Illana said.

While the facility overall has a medical purpose, it is the social model which drives policy around all aspects of RSL LifeCare.

“We want our residents to be enjoying life, not just living it. We are a pet friendly provider and even offer pet packages, so we care for pets when residents cannot. It’s very much about what the resident wants.

“We will welcome children and will be making associations with local schools and run a program called 'Grandfriends' which connects older people with children who may not have grandparents in their lives,” Illana said.

The purchase of Horizons Village will create an inclusive facility.

“Keeping families connected is key. If partners are living in the Village and one must move to the residential care facility, it’s just a short walk away. No transport required."

RSL LifeCare will also offer LifeCare@home for Horizons and the wider community.

Anything relating to RSL LifeCare is done in particular to honour veterans. Much of the décor will reflect this and the site will host Remembrance Day and Anzac Day ceremonies every year.

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.

ODDS, ENDS & INSPIRATION STRANGE BUT TRUE z It was 20th-century French philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre who made the following sage observation: “If you’re lonely while you’re alone, you’re in bad company.” z Other than humans and apes, the only animal that has no tail is the Manx cat. z You might not think that fruitcake – that much-maligned holiday staple – and mahogany – the hardwood valued for its beauty and durability – have anything in common. You’d be wrong, though; the two items have the same approximate density. z Those who study such things say that, as a whole, indoor cats prefer the taste of fish, while outdoor cats prefer the taste of mice. z In parts of America’s New England region, porcupine liver was

once considered to be a delicacy. z Saint Anthony the Great, an early Christian monk from Egypt, spent years living in a tomb in order to overcome temptation. This is doubtless why he’s now known as the patron saint of gravediggers. z Thought for the Day: “Television’s perfect. You turn a few knobs... and lean back and drain your mind of all thought. And there you are watching the bubbles in the primeval ooze. You don’t have to concentrate. You don’t have to react. You don’t have to remember.

You don’t miss your brain because you don’t need it.... You are in the man’s nirvana. And if some poor nasty-minded person comes along and says you look like a fly on a can of garbage, pay him no mind.

He probably hasn’t got the price of a television set.” – Raymond Chandler.

WORKOUT

Pink Angels... and a Devil in Angels Wings!

Story by GEOFF MANN ANN NELSON has been leading cycle classes upstairs in the RSL for many years and recently she guided regulars and newcomers through a challenging session on the standing bikes that left most decidedly red – rather than pink – at the end!

It was all for a good cause – the Dubbo Pink Angels who are committed to providing support and services for those families dealing with breast cancer.

The Angels are on hand working with oncology nurses, breast care specialists and social workers in the local med-

ical sector, providing much-needed personal support and financial assistance as well as untold voluntary hours helping out with babysitting, yard maintenance and house work while patients undergo treatment and are in extended periods of recovery.

At the RSL, there were lots of laughs, some serious attempts at cycling, on-the-floor exercises... and lots of money donated.

Thanks to Ann and her band of “old spokes” who ensured it

Check out the devilish smile!

was a fun introduction. Many newcomers have become regulars at the 6.15am Friday classes.

Nancy and Teresa are young vets when it comes to Friday Cycle!

John from Trangie is a late starter on the bikes. He is now a regular who sprints up Anne Gemmell and Pam Cruikshank are dedicated Pink Angels who also like the stairs about 10 to 6 every Friday to to exercise. “make sure I get a stallion”!

Two for team and two for tu-tu! Everyone entered into the spirit of the day!

TOUCH

Don Green Juniors Touch

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL DUBBO TOUCH hosted the annual touch tournament for junior players at the superb riverbank ovals recently.

Don Green was a school-teacher in Wellington who had a passion for the sport and providing opportunities for kids of all ages to participate in a non-contact sport that was based on fitness, fairness and friendship.

Teams from Wellington, Dubbo and

other towns around the central west enjoyed a sensational day playing the sport that started as a summer off-season challenge for rugby league, union and football players over 40 years ago.

These days it is an international sport, players are superbly kitted out, tactics and training play a huge role, and the Dubbo Touch Association is rated the best in NSW. Mel’s photos capture the evasiveness, “hail Mary passes” and unadulterated joy that comes from crossing the stripe!

BOWLS

Bowlers in blue on the greens for a diamond celebration!

Story by GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL DUBBO West Bowls Club members and players turned out in their numbers to celebrate the 60th anniversary of sending them down on the iconic Club Dubbo greens.

Dubbo Photo News sports shooter Mel Pocknall popped over to get an unbiased view of the members and visitors in action.

NSW Bowls President Vince Beard played in the commemorative tournament and then joined with Bowls President Brian Jones for presentations. He was generous in praise of the club that came into being in 1957 in much more modest facilities.

“Country bowling clubs like West Dubbo are the grassroots of our sport. Here we have a wonderful mixture of long-term bowlers and an incredible group of youngsters being mentored by Anthony Brown and his band of dedicated male and female coaches,” Brian said.

Dubbo Photo News November 30-December 6, 2017 FRIDAY NIGHT CRICKET

Cricket under the canopy of lights!

Story by GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL THE Castlereagh Hornets (Souths) showed they are not fazed by the high intensity floodlights at No.1 Oval, buzzing along at just under 8 runs an over to set The Western Plains Automotive Cougars (CYMS) a target of 158.

All-rounder Scott Tucker claimed man-of-the-match honours, blasting 63 and then picking up the key wickets of Tom Nelson (47) and Ben Knaggs (6) to restrict the Cougars to 8/135 from their allotted overs.

The action continues at Victoria Park tomorrow night (Friday, December 1), weather permitting.

Eyes on the ball: Umpire Phil Leonard, Cougars fielder Lochie Endacott, Mitch Bower backing up and bowler Nick Guthrie in full stride are all focussing on the little white ball.

Hornets’ Mitch Bower has plenty of sting in his bade, belting 17 before falling to Nick Karydis.

CYMS’ outstanding batsman Brock Larance shows he is not a one-skill cricketer. Here he is bowling his off-spinners. Keeper Coady is well-positioned.

“Did I get there? One for the third umpire, I reckon!”

Above: Cougars opener Tom Nelson stroked the ball to all parts to top-score with 47. Above right: Cougars skipper Ben Knaggs only made 6 despite this stylish flick through mid-wicket

GOLF

Dubbo Vets cater for ‘The Ageless’

By GEOFF MANN

RETIREMENT equals a chance to increase enjoyment, pick up new skills and gather with friends for a round of golf.

The Dubbo Veterans Golf Club is an affiliate of the NSW organisation and is open to all male golfers over 55 who have a registered Australian Golf Union handicap.

The Dubbo Club has a special category for “Young Veterans” – those aged 50-55 years!

Currently there are 210 members with an average of 70 on the course regularly on Tuesdays and Fridays.

“While the young’uns keep us all on our toes, we have several over 80 and our senior most

active driver and putter is 93,” Barry Cooper extolled.

The Vets play on Tuesdays with tee off times from 8am till 10.30am, and on Fridays a shotgun start at 8.30 means all hit off at the same time.

“There’s plenty of time for socialisation and recapping the day’s round at the clubhouse, or ‘the 19th hole’ as it is affectionately known,” according to Barry.

“And on the last Friday we have a barbecue at which we allocate monthly prizes.”

The Dubbo Vets are always looking for new members. Contact Secretary Greg Shortis on 6887 2795 or give the Pro Shop a call on 6882-2201.

Dubbo octogenarian golfers love the contest and the comradeship forged on the fairways and greens at the Golf Club.

ATHLETICS

Four of our best off Pacific Schools Games DUBBO Athletics Club members and friends gathered at the Castlereagh Hotel on Saturday night to raise funds to assist four mates participate in the Pacific School Games which get underway tomorrow (Friday, December 1).

Powerful thrower Nosa Obaseki, discus/shot putt specialist Xanthie Chatfield, 800/1500m runner Ella Penman, and talented 2km steeplechaser Lochie Townsend were very active on the night, greeting visitors

at the door, selling tickets and participating in some fundraising activities like auctions and the “closest the bottle toss”.

Each spoke of their gratitude for the people who had attended and those who donated items for the fundraiser and pledged to give of their best to make the club and Dubbo proud.

As any parent with children in sport knows, the costs of travel, accommodation and purchase of team uniforms can be prohibitive, so to

have others assist is an example of tremendous club spirit.

The quartet and their families have all committed themselves to paying the generosity forward as others will most certainly follow in their steps on the track, in the field or through other life-giving sporting and personal adventures.

CANOEING

What in the world is a WOM DOM NOM...?

ONE of the most recognisable (though not always understood) acronyms in sport is the Wellington on Macquarie (WOM), Dubbo on Macquarie (DOM), Narromine on Macquarie (NOM) paddle.

An initiative of Dubbo-born and returnee resident, Andrew McKay, WomDomNom attracted 153 paddlers for the fifth annual four-day event that began with the COB Loaf (Cameron Park on the Bell) Festival on Wednesday night and wrapped up at Narromine around lunchtime on Sunday.

Several of the keenest WomDomNommers set off from the Dam Wall at Burrendong on Wednesday morning, met up with fellow travellers at Cameron Park for some Cob Loaf tasting, enjoyed njoyed a good night’s rest and then en paddled off around 6.30 on Thursday morning.

Overnight camps on the banks of the river followed ollowed at Bril Bral Reserve (36km 6km west of Wellington), Sandy ndy Beach (Dubbo) and Dickygundi kygundi Reserve (36km west of Dubbo).

Over the three days, enthusiasts paddled 150km, m, assisted by a freely-flowing wing river and under perfect rfect skies.

The support crew included Dubbo South uth

Rotary (caterers), a group of set-up/packup roadies and a troupe of “car ferriers” including Ritchie and Maureen McKay (both described as ‘Over Bloody Eighties’ – OBEs) who transported paddlers to the Secure Yard in Narromine before the adventure began.

“We made five trips each with four passengers per car to enable those who had travelled from all parts of Australia to have their vehicles to pack and return home on Sunday afternoon,” Maureen said.

“It was a labour of love for our extended WomDomNom family that included some ten-year Zoo2Zoo cyclists, five-years-onthe-water veterans and some first timers,” she laughed.

“Several teams practised around The pra Spit on Sydney Harbour, Harbo although they realised fairly quickly there were no gourevery 10km on the Macmet coffee stops eve quarie,” Maureen added. ad It would have ma made the “shardies on the shore” even sweeter each night! swe Right, boats boa lined up in Wellington and ready Wellingt for the start of the 2017 Wom WomDomNom.

“YES, GOT ‘IM!” EMERGING batsman Tom Coady has Bill Lawry’s epic chorus echoing inside his helmet as the stumps spill behind him.

There is no more feared sound than the death rattle as ball beats bat and thunders into the sticks – magically captured in this 1, 2, 3, 4 sequence of rapid fire photos by our sports shooter Mel Pocknall.

Tom made 3 at the top of the Western Plains Cougars order in Friday’s Megahit T20 at No.1 Oval. The Cougars fell 18 runs short of the Castlereagh Hornets (CYMS) total of 157.

Catch more of Mel’s great action shots inside Sport, on page 67.
