Beryl Hartley honoured with international aviation award

By SHARON BONTHUYS

By SHARON BONTHUYS LATE last month, Trangie and Narromine volunteers gathered to celebrate the centenary of the very fi rst shop opened by the St Vincent de Paul Society NSW, fondly known as “Vinnies”.

The local stores joined other NSW Vinnies shops in hosting their own local centenary celebration events on October 27, thanking their volunteers and reflecting on their valuable contributions to their communities.

Of the 227-strong Vinnies shop network in NSW, 130 stores are based in rural, regional and remote areas, according to a society spokesperson.

While the face of Vinnies is its fleet of community shops, the organisation also goes far beyond this and uses funds raised to provide services and programs for people across Australia. Vinnies helps those experiencing or at risk of homelessness, providing crisis accommodation for people experiencing domestic or family violence, and assisting with health, addiction and fi nancial issues, among other things.

NARROMINE gliding identity Beryl Hartley has been honoured with a prestigious award by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI), the World Air Sports Federation.

In the early hours of November 3, Beryl watched the 2022 FAI Awards broadcast online from Lausanne, Switzerland, as she was presented with a FAI Paul Tissandier Diploma.

The perpetual international award is named in honour of French aviator and long serving Treasurer and Secretary General of the FAI, Paul Tissandier (1881-1945). It was fi rst awarded in 1952 and is given to those who have served the cause of aviation and sporting aviation in particular.

For 76-year-old Beryl, who has been involved with gliding for 57 years, held numerous executive roles and been involved in planning and staging many prestigious gliding events across the decades, the award is a tremendous honour. It was also totally unexpected.

“They contacted me a couple of days before the awards wanting photos, and so I didn’t have time to do much,” she chuckled.

She suspects it came via a

significant sporting aviation body associated with the FAI, supported by the gliding movement.

She is also grateful to her husband Arnie and her family

Water has washed gravel away, impacting this road in the Narromine Shire.

THE peak local government body for NSW has declared a state-wide roads emergency calling for more funding, but not all mayors believe this is the best course of action.

Local Government NSW (LGNSW) declared this emergency after NSW mayors and councillors attended the National Local Roads and Transport Congress in Hobart earlier this month.

The declaration was an urgent call for the NSW and federal governments to increase their existing road funding commitments, in the wake of this year’s catastrophic floods and rain events.

While this call was unanimously supported by NSW mayors and councillors attending the congress, including Dubbo Regional Council, it will not provide a “quick fi x” to a very complex, long term problem. It’s no wonder that many mayors, like Narromine Shire Council’s Cr Craig Davies, are unhappy.

“Narromine Shire Council has had hundreds of kilometres of roads under water on and off.... That’s just the ones that have been flooded,” he said.

“We have had similar distances that have been water affected for the same period. Many roads have not been seen by staff because of their inaccessibility or the fact they are under water.”

Cr Davies says now is the time to start planning for the future of the state’s road networks.

“I spoke to Premier Perrottet a week ago and suggested the cost was beyond councils; that Narromine Shire with 6,600 people could not afford to resurrect the hundreds of kilometres of roads we have.

“In all, [Council] is responsible for a network that stretches for 1,490 kilometres, of which about half is gravel or dirt based. The cost involved in bringing our roads up to an

acceptable level is tens of millions of dollars. I couldn’t begin to try calculating the quantum.”

When a natural disaster declaration is called for a local government area (LGA), it means more funding is available for that LGA to repair roads back to their original state (prior to the damage event). For many roads, this original state is not sufficient.

This was discussed at the regional freight forum held last month in Dubbo, which was attended by the minister for regional roads, Sam Farraway. Disaster funding was discussed at length during this forum, as well as the associated “frustrating insurance claims and approval processes”.

LGNSW has said that the successive floods and torrential rain events has caused $2.5 billion in road damages, causing “a collapse of the local and regional road network”.

“More than 220 natural disaster areas have been declared across NSW this year, leaving the road network in a state of disrepair,” said LGNSW president Darriea Turley.

“Road repair funding pledged to date has fallen well short of what is required so we’re declaring this state-wide roads emergency to get help before the situation becomes even worse.

“In the coming weeks close to $4 billion worth of crops will need to be harvested and transported, yet harvesting machinery is unable to access some of the most productive regions in our state. The wider rural communities supporting Australia’s food bowl are on their knees, waiting for the network to be repaired.

“Meanwhile, families travelling during the upcoming summer holidays will find their trips to visit family severely disrupted unless councils get the support, we need to rebuild the road network. When this rain finally recedes, we owe it to our communities that they gain access to

their road network as quickly as possible.”

The president of the Australian Local Government Association (ALGA), Cr Linda Scott, said that last week’s National Local Roads and Transport Congress in Hobart shone a spotlight on the shocking state of Australia’s local roads.

Echoing Cr Davies’ words, Cr Scott said “Councils are responsible for 77 per cent of Australia’s roads but collect less than four per cent of national taxation. We simply can’t afford to maintain our road network to an acceptable standard under these funding constraints.

“The poor state of our local roads has been exacerbated over the past 12 months by severe and ongoing flooding.

“ALGA is advocating for an increase in Roads to Recovery Funding from $500 to $800 million a year, that will support councils to invest in the roads Australians use every day.

“Restoring federal Financial Assistance Grants to councils to at least one per cent of Commonwealth taxation revenue would also support councils to build and maintain safer roads right across our country,” Cr Scott said.

Cr Davies has his eye on the forthcoming state election in March 2023 and what may be promised for roads by all parties, insisting he is not asking for anything more than is necessary to support infrastructure projects in country areas.

“I am hoping... proposals for future works are being built into the election promises of all parties “I hope they amount to more than [offered] previously, that the money is available quickly, [that] we have full autonomy on how and where the money is spent, and that it is of sufficient proportions to allow a two to three-year period for the work to be achieved given favourable [weather] conditions.”

Beryl Hartley honoured with international aviation award

Trangie servo: Inland Petroleum to take over

By SHARON BONTHUYS

INLAND Petroleum executives met with Narromine Shire Council mayor Craig Davies on November 9 about the central west company’s proposal to take over and upgrade the Trangie service station site.

Cr Davies has been instrumental in bringing parties to the table to resolve the uncertain future of the site following the revelation last month that Ampol’s lease would expire in December.

Inland Petroleum has now confi rmed publicly it will take over the site but a handover date is not yet known. As well as change of lease holder, rehabilitation works need to be confi rmed and site development is subject to relevant approvals by Narromine Shire Council.

From the public statements made, it is expected that a temporary fuel facility will be operational for some time while a new service station is constructed and employment of staff will also be carefully considered.

The Narromine Star will provide an update in next week’s issue.

Narromine FOUNDATION SUPPORTERS A big thank-you to these businesses for their up-front support, helping to bring local news back to the Narromine Shire.

The moment Beryl’s name flashed onto the screen in her award category: PHOTO: YOUTUBE. From page 1 “THE reality is that because of Arnie, I have been able to do these things,” she said.

Beryl has achieved much since she “married into gliding” in 1965.

She was the fi rst female president of the Gliding Federation of Australia (GFA), has supported Australian international gliding teams as team manager and crew more than 20 times including five world championships, and helped Narromine secure major international gliding events including the 2015 junior world championships and the 37th FAI world gliding championships to be held in December 2023.

Beryl has also received the GFA Iggulden Award, GFA life membership, and the FAI Pelagia Majewska medal.

Beryl is a deserving candidate to receive the Paul Tissandier Diplo-

ma, according to the FAI. “Whether it is helping with hangerage or seeking support from the government, Beryl has shown amazing dedication, not only to gliding but to airsports generally through her many hours of service on various committees. A highly experienced event organiser, she is a deserving recipient of her diploma,” the announcer said during the awards ceremony.

Beryl was one of 22 aviators to be honoured with the Paul Tissandier Diploma at the 2022 awards.

“FAI medals and diplomas aim at giving public recognition to those who have made outstanding contributions to aeronautics and astronautics, especially in the field of sporting aviation,” the organisation’s website states.

the Opening Ceremony of the annual FAI General Conference. Many of the recipients honoured have had their names closely associated with the history and developments of aeronautics and astronautics.”

The non-government, non-profit FAI plays an important role in “furthering aeronautical and astronautical activities worldwide, ratifying world and continental records and coordinating the organisation of international competitions.”

Formed in 1905, the FAI is recognised by the International Olympic Committee and has 90 member organisations worldwide. To be honoured by this prestigious body is an incredible achievement, as is chalking up more than 50 years’ service at the highest levels to the sport of gliding.

Author Chris Hammer chats at Collie

Contributed by AMANDA KATER, GIN GIN BOOK SWAP

THE Gin Gin Book Swap Book Club hosted acclaimed author Chris Hammer at the Collie Country Women’s Association (CWA) Hall on Sunday, October 30. This proved to be a fantastic venue to host the crime fiction novelist.

Chris was interviewed by our very own Jen McCutcheon from ABC Western Plains Radio. Jen was exceptional in extracting so many stories from Chris, enlightening the 70 keen attendees.

With his relaxed style and a number of good laughs, Chris was highly entertaining. He provided many insights into his motivation and processes for writing, along with an account of the background to his latest crime fiction novel The Tilt.

Chris answered audience questions, giving greater understanding of how he researches for accuracy, as well as his personal life and career as a journalist.

Chris appeared to thoroughly enjoy his visit to Collie, even suggesting other authors would be jealous of the welcome he received.

So many thanks to the wonderful team of Gin Gin Book Swap bookworms for putting this event together and allowing it to run so seamlessly. People came from all over the district and enjoyed a wonderful morning tea provided by the Collie CWA and the bookworms.

We were pleased to donate raffle profits to this worthy cause at the conclusion of the event. We are grateful to the publishers, Allen & Unwin, for supporting Chris’s visit and to our local independent bookstore, The Book Connection in Dubbo, for generously assisting readers and attendees in providing their signed copy of The Tilt.

A successful Sunday morning in Collie!

Connectivity funding a win for the bush LAST week’s announcement of $36 million across two connectivity programs is a double win for farmers and people living in the bush, according to the National Farmers’ Federation (NFF).

The Federal Budget included $30 million across three years for the On Farm Connectivity Program (OFCP) and $6 million for the next three years to expand the NFF-led Regional Tech Hub. NFF President Fiona Simson said many people would be surprised by the advances in technology Australian farmers were adopting.

“Sophisticated technology and innovation are transforming the way we manage our crops, livestock and environment, but one of the biggest handbrakes to accessing these opportunities is connectivity,” she said.

“We expect the OFCP will support

farmers to embrace technology to improve productivity in the same way citybased businesses access technology to take their operations to the next level.”

Regional Tech Hub Manager Jen Medway hosted Minister for Communications, the Hon Michelle Rowland MP, and Senator Deb O’Neill at her Gunning farm for the announcement, which is set to widen the scope to support rural, regional and remote communities with connectivity issues, information and literacy.

The Regional Tech Hub provides free, independent advice on telecommunications services and was developed and is managed by the NFF and the Australian Communications Consumer Action Network (ACCAN).

Since its launch in December 2020, the Hub has helped thousands of regional Australians. Last year alone, the Hub

directly impacted over 10,000 people’s lives and engaged with a further 100,000 by helping them get connected and stay connected.

Ms Medway said the funding will allow the Hub to expand its reach to support more rural, regional and remote Australians to get connected and stay connected.

“Picture a scenario where regional Australia is digitally connected, connectivity literacy is high, and individuals and businesses are supported to make the most of technology solutions.

“The Regional Tech Hub was established to make strides in these areas.

As the connectivity landscape is complex and ever-changing, the Hub’s responsibility to translate, inform and resolve issues remains the cornerstone of everything we do.”

Old Trangie garage has a beautiful new look

Trish Phillips has retained elements of the old garage’s history in her business refit.

PHOTOS: NARROMINE STAR.

By SHARON BONTHUYS AN old Trangie building that was once a garage and also the town’s fi rst power station has re-opened to the public following a big facelift.

Formerly the Holden Skinner’s Garage, the building is the new home of iconic home-

wares and fashion emporium Ewe Two on Dandaloo.

Owner Trish Phillips was keen to retain as much of the building’s history as possible during the re-fit, which sees her business fi nally move back to Dandaloo Street after several years away at premises fronting the Mitchell Highway.

The new store opened on October 24.

The overhead beams in the interior of the new shop bear the names of popular car brands that the old garage would have seen many of back in the day.

Trish said the garage used to be a comfortable, welcom-

ing space where people could come in and sit by the fi re and talk. She has attempted to recreate this vibe by incorporating a sitting room at the front of the store.

The beautifully renovated building was also the fi rst power station in Trangie earlier in the twentieth century,

providing power to about 60 homes, the hospital and local street lights, Trish said.

She is thrilled to offer a new lease on life to the old premises with its long and interesting history.

An autumn of art, music and song in central west NSW is coming committee has proven they can do exactly that.

Contributed by NERRIDA BARBER HAVE you ever looked at a painting and heard music playing? A proactive group of local artists will hold an art exhibition titled “Artsong” at the WOW Centre, Warren during March 2023 which allows you to do exactly that.

The event will take place over the full month of March and will be a prelude to the feast of musical offerings to follow.

The opening night of the exhibition in early March will be a ticketed event. Guests will sample delicious, shared grazing boards and drinks, while treated to a performance of live chamber music.

If you didn’t know this, chamber music is designed for small spaces. It is intimate, evocative, and conversational.

Because of the small number of musicians, one instrument per voice, the conversation is easily heard, enjoyed and understood.

The Australian Vocal Ensemble will also visit Warren next March, courtesy of the Warren Chamber Music Festival (WCMF) committee. They will give workshops in the local area and perform.

I would like to give a big shout out to Frances Evans, the WCMF committee, to Warren and to Ensemble Offspring and their flautist Eliza Shepherd.

Eliza is a dynamic, engaging, “pocket rocket” of the music industry, educator and performer, and fantastic flute player.

Her performances and her example of “beat-box flute” left everyone in the audience speechless and desperately wanting to hear more of not only her music, but more chamber music.

The Golden String Quartet performing next May in Warren. PHOTO: SUPPLIED. Next May the “Goldner String Quartet” will visit Warren courtesy of the WCMF committee, and give three captivating concerts culminating in a Mothers’ Day concert at the Catholic Church.

Who is responsible for bringing this wonderful entertainment to the central west, you might ask?

Frances Evans is the mother of two young children, a musician, a wife, and a farmer. Frances brought together the WCMF committee to hold biennial chamber music festivals in the central west NSW. This committee of six passionate music lovers believe that their organisation can enrich the lives of locals and

warmly welcome visitors to the stunningly beautiful central west.

With knock-out performances to sold out audiences at their inaugural event in May 2021, the most dynamic musical performances by the Ensemble Offspring in May 2022, and subsequent workshops and spin-off performances, the

I was so fortunate to be at Eliza’s performance in Warren last May and it still leaves me in awe, so I was not surprised when this week, Eliza was named the winner of the ABC’s Young Performers Award 2022.

Beautiful music is coming our way again next year. Tickets to the 2023 Warren Chamber Music Festival will be available from February 2023 from the WCMF website and Warren Shire Council. I look forward to bringing you further updates as the festival approaches.

Dubbo group helps people navigate loss and grief

By SHARON BONTHUYS

IF you thought that loss and grief was something that only happens to people when a loved one or a family pet passes away, you would be wrong.

It can take many forms, said Debbie Todkill, CEO of the Dubbo-based National Association for Loss and Grief (NSW) Inc (NALAG).

“People think that loss and grief is about death but it’s much more than just that,” Debbie said.

Loss can arise at many points in people’s lives which actually has little to do with death. Examples include parents who may struggle to move on as “empty nesters” once their children have left home, and people who fi nd themselves unemployed and coping with the unknown.

The COVID pandemic and the mandated restrictions on travel, movement, personal contact and being in public spaces has also led to a loss of the sense of safety, Debbie said.

“If that loss is not addressed it can become grief,” Debbie said, stressing the importance of regularly checking in with family and friends, especially those we know who may be struggling.

NALAG formed following the Granville rail disaster in 1977 which killed 84 people, injured over 200, and badly affected over 1,000 others including fi rst responders, emergency services, rail staff, witnesses and more.

NALAG’s outreach continues today, 45 years on, and helps to enhance wellbeing and promote resilience following loss, grief, trauma and adverse life events.

Headquartered in Dubbo, the notfor-profit organisation provides support to individuals, families and communities through its grief support service and other activities including workshops, training and mental health awareness events.

Operating from an unassuming premises in a suburban Dubbo street, NALAG is a quiet space where those seeking to deal with loss and grief can fi nd support. The organisation has a team of 80 volunteers across the state and a dedicated staff of four.

At the back of the premises NALAG has created a memorial rock garden in support of families grieving miscarriage, stillbirth and infant loss. Families and loved ones select a rock from the garden which NALAG then engraves with their personal message. They can then place the rock into the garden and return whenever they wish to pay respect and quietly reflect. Some families choose to hold ceremonies in the garden, Debbie said.

There is an intake process for those seeking help through NALAG, Debbie said, encouraging anyone in need of assistance to contact the organisation for further information. NALAG does not charge for its services.

“In August there were 80 new referrals from across the state,” she said.

For the fi rst time in three years, NALAG was able to hold its Walk Towards Hope event in Dubbo on October 29 to promote suicide awareness, prevention and support for those grieving the loss of loved ones to suicide.

It was the fi rst time since 2019 that the event could be held due to

the pandemic restrictions. However, the 2022 event was impacted by the ongoing bad weather and flooding and was subsequently moved from its original route to the Dubbo Showgrounds.

NALAG will hold its annual general meeting next week in Dubbo and those interested in the organisation and its work are welcome. Further information is available on the organisation’s website.

From next Monday, people are also invited to hang a memorial ornament or card on NALAG’s Christmas Remembering Tree, located at its centre in Welchman Street, Dubbo, in honour of a friend or loved one.

The organisation encourages people to acknowledge their grief at Christmas and invites the entire community to contribute to the Remembering Tree.

“The Christmas Remembering Tree provides a much-needed chance for our community to come together to remember loved ones who are no longer with us, and that helps people to fi nally express their grief in a supportive environment,” Debbie said.

The Christmas Tree will be lit at a special event in mid December.

US Rotary exchange student returns to Narromine 50 years later

By SHARON BONTHUYS WHEN he landed in Narromine 50 years ago as an exchange student, American teen Eric Jolly started a lifelong love affair with Australia.

“I still think of myself as an Australian, 50 years later,” he said.

During his year here with the Rotary youth exchange program in 1972, Eric attended “sixth form” at Narromine High School where he was a prefect, and stayed with four host families in the area – the Forrests, the Hills, the Bradleys and the Cullens.

“It’s an experience,” he said of the highly regarded exchange student program.

“The town adopted me. Anybody that was going anywhere, I went too. It might have only been driving an hour to a town smaller than this, but I went [everywhere].”

When Eric arrived in Australia on exchange from Ohio in the US Midwest, the fresh-faced 17-year-old did not drink coffee, tea, or beer. This quickly changed, he said.

“I was here less than two weeks when I decided if I didn’t drink two out of three I was going to die of thirst,” he declared. “When I went back I was drinking all three.”

Eric celebrated his 18th birthday while in Australia and was able to drink alcohol legally here from that age, unlike the USA where the legal drinking age is 21.

Now 67, Ohio resident Eric reconnected with his Australian host fam-

ilies 30 years ago and he and his wife Anne have been visiting Australia every second year for the past two decades. Their visits were halted temporarily by the pandemic restrictions on international travel.

Now living in Cleveland, Ohio, Eric and Anne arrived in Australia on October 28 to attend the 90th birthday party of one of Eric’s former “host mums”, Mrs Laura Forrest.

When the Narromine Star caught up with Eric last week during his visit, he, Anne and Mrs Forrest were special guests of the Narromine Rotary Club at their weekly dinner meeting.

Mrs Forrest, who now lives in Dubbo and turns 90 this weekend, said she and her husband, Mick, a former President of the Narromine Rotary Club, hosted Eric because they were very involved in the club.

“When the club decided to have a student, we put our name down first. We had no idea what to expect or what he would be like.

“But he was a lovely student. He fitted right into the family and we had some great times together,” she said.

Eric has been involved with Rotary as an adult and has served as a club president of Lakewood and Rocky River Sunrise Rotary Club in Ohio. Now retired, he worked as an insurance claims adjuster for 40 years in the USA. After visiting Narromine, Eric and Anne were continuing on to Orange, Sydney, Canberra, and Batemans Bay as part of their trip, before departing for home on November 18.

Trangie and Narromine celebrate 100 years of Vinnies shops in NSW

Pat Riley and Garry Fitzgerald are carrying on their fathers’ legacy in keeping the Trangie shop going.

Long standing volunteers Coral Dennis and Coral Herbert cut the cake at Trangie.

100 years of Vinnies shops.

Margaret Rappard cuts the cake at Narromine. PHOTOS: NARROMINE STAR.

From page 1 The society gives back to the community through a process called “conference”, a group of local members who support the mission and rule of Vinnies and make decisions about support accordingly.

Through the conference groups, local residents can be directed to or provided with support services including food, fi nancial assistance, fuel or travel assistance, and more.

To access this support, community members should ask to talk to the conference convenors at their local Vinnies shop.

“From humble beginnings, our NSW Vinnies shops came from the need to fund these programs and services. The profits from the sale of goods in these shops helps us to assist around 470,000 people experiencing disadvantage and homelessness in NSW each year,” the society spokesperson said.

Both Trangie and Narromine Vinnies shops are an important part of the social fabric of their towns. They are not just shops providing lowcost goods, but also centres where community members can socialise with others and the volunteers and seek wider help if needed.

In Trangie, the local Vinnies shop was started by brothers Vern and Jack

Fitzgerald in the 1950s.

“My father [Vern] was a great philanthropist and was very much into helping people. He could always see that someone was more needy than he was,” said Pat Riley, who is carrying on her father’s legacy at Vinnies together with Jack’s son, her cousin Garry Fitzgerald.

“I have memories of my father coming home and making a pot of soup for a couple of old gentlemen who were sick, or old bachelors living on their own. That was the sort of thing he did all the time.”

Pat said the Trangie store is an important part of the local community and if it ever closed, its loss would be keenly felt.

“There would be vulnerable people who would have to go to surrounding towns like Narromine or Dubbo to get things if this shop wasn’t here.

It would mean travelling away, out of town,” Pat said.

Carrying on their fathers’ legacy, Pat and Garry have a great sense of personal achievement in helping their community through the Trangie Vinnies shop.

“I recognise it as a very worthwhile venture,” Pat said. “I’m here and keeping it going.”

The Trangie store has about

14 regular volunteers, Pat said.

Coral Dennis, 75, is the longest serving volunteer at Trangie, having clocked up an incredible 48 years with the Vinnies shop. Coral Herbert, 87, is another long standing volunteer who can’t recall exactly how long she has helped out there but it is somewhere between 30 and 40 years.

Both ladies were on hand to cut the centenary celebration cake specially made for the occasion by Rachel Dodd.

Pat hopes that the celebration reminds the community of just how special the store is, and of the many bargains to be found within.

“Some of the stuff we sell is brand new and just for a few dollars,” Pat said.

At Narromine, local Vinnies shop leader Margaret Rappard thanked present and past volunteers and cut the centenary cake made by Rochelle Taylor.

“What a wonderful, wonderful society. Thank you for all your hard work, I’m proud of each and every one of you,” Margaret told the volunteers.

Margaret has been volunteering at the Narromine Vinnies shop for four years and took over the helm as president in January 2022.

“I love being here and doing something for the community, seeing someone smile on a dull

day,” Margaret said.

Like Trangie, the Narromine Vinnie’s shop plays an important role in assisting vulnerable members of the community through low-cost items and acts as a conduit to further assistance if needed. “[Vinnie’s shops] are really important. There are so many families and people struggling. We just are happy to be here to give them help,” Margaret said.

“I make sure we sell good quality clothes that they will get good wear out of and can afford, and our conference ladies help the needy [in other ways].”

Long standing volunteer Colleen Robertson has helped at the Narromine Vinnie’s shop for about 20 years.

“I enjoy doing what I do and helping people,” Colleen said, indicating she fi rst became involved with Vinnies to fi ll a void in her life.

“I wanted to get to know people and have some company as I lived out of town at the time.

“The community would be lost if the store wasn’t here,” Colleen said.

Kath Wakely has volunteered at Vinnies in Narromine for more than 30 years.

She said St Vincent de Paul had been in Narromine since about the 1950s. Like many of

the volunteers, Kath said she enjoys giving something back to the community through her volunteering at the shop.

“There is nothing else like this shop in town,” Kath said.

Margaret said about 23 volunteers currently help with the Narromine store, and many are in their sixties or older. Their commitment and contribution as volunteers was invaluable, she said.

The society spokesperson said: “Having a presence in local communities where we are able to make a positive impact has been at the core of the work of the St Vincent de Paul Society NSW for more than a century.

“Our members and volunteers live in the areas they work in and have an understanding of community needs.

The society has a presence across rural communities and provides assistance in areas where formal services are not as readily available as other parts of the state.

“Our shops in regional and rural NSW rely upon the generosity of volunteers giving of their time each week; we would love to see more people get involved with Vinnies Shops so that we can continue supporting communities,” the spokesperson said.

Good on you, Vinnies!

Recognising veterans in Broken Hill

Comment ment by K COULTON, MARK Federal ral Member for Parkes arkes

Grants for floodaffected primary producers

I’M pleased that flood-affected primary producers in the Parkes electorate can apply for recovery grants of up to $25,000 as part of the jointly funded Commonwealth-State Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements.

The grants are now available for eligible primary producers in the local government areas (LGAs) that have been disaster-declared from the most recent storm and flood event.

This includes the Bogan, Bourke, Brewarrina, Central Darling, Cobar, Coonamble, Dubbo Regional, Gilgandra, Gunnedah, Gwydir, Lachlan, Moree Plains, Narrabri, Narromine, Walgett, Warren and Warrumbungle LGAs in the Parkes electorate.

The assistance is available for the immediate cleanup and recovery costs to repair extensive damage to properties.

Our farmers have been among the hardest hit by flooding this year, with recent floods destroying or downgrading millions of dollars’ worth of crops across the Parkes electorate just before harvest season. I know these grants will be very welcomed to help farmers get back on their feet after a challenging few months.

For more information, or to lodge an application, visit the NSW Rural Assistance Authority website.

AROUND UND THE ELECTORATE TORATE Comment nt by DUGALD D SAUNDERS, ERS, State Member ember for Dubbo bo THE 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month marks the moment the guns fell silent on the Western Front.

Over the past century, this moment has been adopted across the globe as a time to remember those who served

LAST week it was an honour to recognise four local veterans from the Parkes electorate during a special presentation in my Broken Hill office, ahead of Remembrance Day. I presented certificates of appreciation, made possible under the Australian Government Saluting Their Service Commemorative Program, to Raymond John Harvey from Broken Hill, and to Rae Ellen Dellar who is the daughter of the late Donald Harold Earnest Massey and granddaughter of the late Harold John Massey, as well as the daughter of the wife of the late Albert James McDonald.

Ray served as a soldier in the Royal Australian Navy from 1967 to 1979, while Albert, Donald and Harold served during World War II. Albert was killed in action in New Guinea in 1943.

We owe our freedoms to the service given by these men and many like them, so it was a privilege to be able to present these certificates. Even though Albert, Donald and Harold are no longer with us, it’s lovely for their families to have this memento to pass onto future generations, to remember the role they played in various confl icts.

Veterans, or family members of those deceased who served in the Second World War and overseas in wars, confl icts or peacekeeping operations since then are eligible to apply for a Certificate of Appreciation. For more information about the Saluting Their Service Commemorative Program, visit the Veterans Affairs website.

and sacrificed in all wars and confl icts.

That’s often been the focus – war – and rightly so. It’s during these confl icts that we ask our service men and women to make the greatest sacrifice; risking life and limb, time away from family and friends, and the mental and emotional scars many carry with them for the rest of their lives.

There’s a toll on their families and communities as well.

But this Remembrance Day, I want to highlight the work our Australian Defence Force personnel do in peacetime.

ON November 11, 1918, the guns of the Western Front fell silent after four years of continuous warfare. With their armies retreating and close to collapse, German leaders signed an Armistice, bringing to an end the First World War. This day became known as Armistice Day and after World

War II it was renamed Remembrance Day to commemorate those who were killed in both World Wars. Today, the loss of Australian lives from all wars and confl icts is commemorated on Remembrance Day. This Friday is Remembrance Day, one of the most significant dates on our national calendar.

At the 11th hour, on the 11th day, of the 11th month, our

nation pauses to observe one minute’s silence to remember those who served, suffered and died for Australia’s cause in all wars and armed confl icts.

mer of bushfi res in 2019-20, the ADF were there for our drought and bushfi re-stricken farmers, supporting evacuation centres and the cleanup, including the grim task of disposing of livestock.

At the height of COVID, when border closures were wreaking havoc on our primary industries, former ADF personnel swapped the tanks for tractors, to help farmers harvest bumper crops.

During our own COVID outbreak last year, the ADF were here, supporting people in isolation and getting vaccines in people’s arms. In doing so, they saved lives.

And since early last year,

ADF personnel have been on the ground in some of our most flood-affected communities, fi lling and distributing sand bags, building levees, and helping with evacuations, rescues, transport and logistics, and the clean-up.

So this Remembrance Day, let us pause, reflect and remember those brave men and women who have served our country in years gone by.

Let us pause, reflect, and remember the ones who never came home.

Let us pause, ref lect, and remember the men and women around the world, currently serving and working to protect the freedoms we

hold so dear.

Remembrance Day 2022 Contributed by DAVID TAYLOR, PRESIDENT, NARROMINE SUB-BRANCH RSL THIS Friday, November 11, the Narromine RSL Sub-branch and other community members will gather at the Cenotaph to remember the end of World War 1. The service will commence at 10.45am.

At 11am on November 11, 1918, the weapons of war on Europe’s Western Front fell silent. Hostilities had begun on July 28, 1914, following the June 28 assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand from Austria-Hungary (who actually spent some time in Narromine in 1893 on a shooting expedition).

The confl ict initially involved only Austria-Hungary, Serbia and Russia, but through complicated treaty conditions France, Germany and Britain became embroiled and all out wide spread hostilities commenced on August 4, 1914.

With Great Britain’s entry, Australia, New Zealand, and the other members of the then British Empire were drawn into the confl ict. By the war’s end in 1918, around nine million soldiers had died, with a further five million civilians.

Australia lost almost sixty thousand, most of whom were battleground casualties, with the remainder dying from injuries and sickness. Some 49 of these were from Narromine.

Although the ceasefi re began on November 11, 1918, the war itself was still in effect until 1923, with the Paris Peace Conference, which commenced on January 18, 1919, being but one of many meetings which determined the ultimate conditions for the end of World War 1.

While we, as a nation and community, take pride in pausing to remember those who have fallen, and to acknowledge the sacrifices made as well by those at home, we could also reflect on some of the lessons to be learnt from these tragic world events, and in particular, the end of World War 1. Lessons we could easily apply where we live today.

One of these lessons is: is it

Remembrance Day: wreath laying at Trangie

By SHARON BONTHUYS THIS Friday, November 11, is Remembrance Day. Wreaths will be laid at the Soldiers Memorial Hall, Trangie, at 11 am on Remembrance Day. The local community and visitors are welcome to attend.

For further details, contact Cathie Gillespie.

Contributed by PAT RILEY, TAG AT the November meeting of Trangie Action Group (TAG) there were a number of issues that have been on the organisation’s agenda for some time, brought forward for discussion and in some cases, resolution.

The Passage of Time mural remains a work in progress. Public toilets are being monitored for cleanliness and it is expected that, should any member of the community fi nd them in a disreputable state, that they report the matter to Council. The Railway mural awaits a departmental response.

Accessible defibrillators

remain on the agenda. A point-of-interest sign is still under negotiation.

Of grave concern to members as well as the community at large is the imminent closure of the town’s only fuel outlet. A motion was put in place to approach council with a view to calling a public meeting for all concerned parties.

As well as concerns over the service station closure, a number of other concerns were voiced regarding intermittent closure of the local tip, damage to grave sites caused by goannas, seating in the main street, speeding in the main street, and the honour board that has been missing from the library since it was taken away for

As we stop for a few minutes this Remembrance Day, let us not just remember the lives lost to gain a victory against oppression.

Let us also consider that international confl ict, ultimately, has its beginnings in some kind of personal confl ict.

It’s true that on the world stage the forces of evil may arise no matter how we conduct our personal lives. But in the meantime, let us look for ways to promote a peaceful life, and a peaceful country, right where we live.

cleaning some years ago.

With Christmas fast approaching, the action group is once again organising activities to make this year’s street party something special. This is what we can tell you has been planned so far...

The ever-popular Shop-nWin competition was launched last week. Competition draws will take place at regular intervals at the Street Party.

Prizes include four gift vouchers. Winners must be present to collect a prize.

The Street Party will have entrances at the Narromine and Derribong Street intersections of Dandaloo Street. Don’t bypass these entrances or you’ll miss out on getting the important validation which

beneficial to always insist on doing what we’re allowed to do? Right up to 11am on November 11, it was still “allowable” under the terms of the armistice to keep fighting. While there were no planned operations in the fi nal hours, snipers were still active, with some soldiers being killed even in the last few minutes.

These deaths had no impact whatsoever on the war’s outcome, but it meant that more lives were needlessly lost, and families back home suffered more grief – all for no purpose.

Perhaps we could consider that, sometimes, what we may be “allowed” to do will have no benefit (except maybe to bolster our stubborn pride), and could very easily cause pain

Thanks to a very generous grant from the government through the Narromine Shire Council, all children’s activities at this year’s event will be free. This will include games and activities, face painting, a bungee run, a mechanical bull, a jumping castle, and St John’s slush puppies. Santa will also make an appearance.

The chocolate wheel will be in operation, affording those lucky enough the opportunity to take home a ham. A giant raffle and a number of market stalls, both local and out-oftown, will also be operating.

At this time of year, it is envisioned that any hint of a car-

nival atmosphere will invoke thoughts of Christmas, family and togetherness. To further enhance this atmosphere and to aid in their own comfort, it is suggested that patrons bring along a chair and a rug and perhaps some form of insect repellent to ensure the utmost enjoyment from this once-a-year family event.

TAG members will meet again at the end of November to fi nalise the details of this special event. If you are not a member but feel that you would like to contribute, please feel free to come along and lend your support, remembering that a burden shared is a burden halved.

Watch Last Post Ceremonies from home THE Australian War Memorial (AWM) is leading Australian commemorations with a daily live-streamed Last Post Ceremony, made possible through the generous support of the Returned and Services League (RSL) of Australia and the RSL and Services Clubs Association.

Each Last Post Ceremony tells the story of one of the more than 103,000 Australians whose names are recorded on the Memorial’s Roll of Honour.

AWM Director Matt Anderson welcomed the new support from the RSL. “For those attending or watching online, the Last Post Ceremony draws us closer to the lives and experiences of the Australian servicemen and servicewomen who have died in war,” he said.

“Live streaming of this special ceremony opens up a way for more people to commemorate sacrifice and service from across the country or the globe.

“It allows people to commemorate our fallen from the comfort of their homes across Australia, accompanied virtually by military personnel, Memorial visitors and family members in

Young farmers the hardest hit by scammers AUSSIE farmers lost more than $1.2 million to tractor scammers between January and August, prompting fresh warnings about online safety.

According to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, the most reported categories were classified scams and online shopping scams, with most reports relating to fake online sales for tractors and heavy machinery.

NSW Farmers Rural Affairs Committee chair Deb Charlton said farmers and small businesses lost more than $1.5 million to scammers targeting agriculture last year, and that figure could increase for 2022.

“This is a really stressful time for farmers with the terrible weather, high input costs and supermarkets trying to keep prices low, so to lose money to a scammer is just unthinkable,” Mrs Charlton said.

“We don’t know the full impact of scams because a third of victims don’t ever report it, but of the 292 reports of agriculture scams from January to August, 219 involved tractors or machinery.

“On average tractor scam victims lose more than $16,000, and young farmers from NSW are those hardest hit.”

Mrs Charlton said with online safety in the headlines, it was critical for farmers to protect themselves and their businesses.

“If it’s too cheap it’s probably too good to be true, so always do your research and take your time if you’re buying online,” she said.

“We’ve also heard about fake invoice scams costing farmers more than $320,000 this year, so make sure you double check details even on invoices you’re expecting.

“At the end of the day there are crooks out there trying to take your hard-earned money, so take a little extra precaution and stay safe.”

RSL President, Greg Melick AO RFD FANZCN SC, said: “The RSL is proud to be supporting the nightly Last Post Ceremony, to ensure it can be live streamed across the nation, and the inspiring stories of so many fallen veterans told widely.”

The Last Post Ceremony was fi rst held at the Memorial on April 17, 2013, featuring the story of Private Robert Poate of the 6th Battalion, the Royal Australian Regiment, who was killed in Afghanistan in 2012. Since then, there have been more than 3,000 Last Post Ceremonies at the AWM. Families of the serviceperson being commemorated at the daily event who are unable to attend in person can watch the live stream from their homes or with the support of local RSL clubs and sub-branches.

Visitors to the AWM can also attend the ceremony in person, and are invited to lay wreaths and floral tributes beside the Pool of Reflection.

Booking a free ticket is recommended. Further information is available from the AWM.

Increased signage around mobile speed cameras ADDITIONAL warning signs will be introduced around all mobile speed cameras across NSW to enhance driver awareness of enforcement.

Member for the Dubbo electorate Dugald Saunders said ensuring local roads are as safe as possible for pedestrians and motorists is an absolute priority.

“From January 1 next year, all mobile speed cameras will have portable signage placed before and after

the camera,” Mr Saunders said.

“These additional warning signs will give drivers advanced warning to slow down at these high-risk points of our road network.”

Minister for Regional Transport and Roads, Sam Farraway, said mobile speed cameras are about ensuring motorists are driving safely and to the speed limit.

“Displaying warning signage sends a message to motorists to slow

down, potentially saving their life,” Mr Farraway said.

“Around two thirds of speeding drivers or riders involved in fatal and serious injury crashes over the last five years were travelling less than 10km/h over the sign-posted speed limit.

“We want motorists to slow down, drive to the speed limit, and get home to their families safely.”

NSW farmers to get pay rise for hosting new transmission lines A new payment scheme for NSW farmers and landholders hosting transmission lines on their properties has been welcomed by RE-Alliance as a start to reward landholders for their critical part in the energy transformation.

The NSW Government announced on October 25 that landholders will receive a $200,000 per kilometre payment, paid over 20 years, for all new large-scale transmission lines built on their properties.

This payment, applying to new transmission lines, will be in addition to existing statutory compensation payments made under the Just Terms Act. “NSW has a number of renewable energy transmission projects in the pipeline that will carry high vol-

umes of clean power across NSW and to neighbouring states” said Andrew Bray, RE-Alliance National Director.

“By hosting transmission lines, landholders are creating value for energy consumers, and it’s important they are treated as core stakeholders and benefit materially for the role they play in our future energy system.

“Farmers hosting transmission lines on their property will now receive payments more comparable to those hosting a solar farm or wind farm.

The new payment system will only apply across NSW, and RE-Alliance is urging other states to follow quickly.

“Following [the] announcement, harmonising payments across state

jurisdictions is likely to be on the agenda [following a meeting of energy ministers] “Some transmission lines cross state borders, and it’s simply untenable to have landholders receiving different amounts on either side.

“Proper payment for landholders is critical but on its own it won’t be enough. Planning new lines around the needs of local communities, effective and respectful engagement, and making sure local regional communities are treated as the key stakeholders that they are.

“Ensuring farmers and regions are beneficiaries and active participants in the process is essential for a swift and successful transition.”

The rule of LAWrence in the upper house

By TIJANA BIRDJAN

Former Dubbo mayor and prominent barrister Stephen Lawrence has been preselected as a candidate for next year’s state Upper House election. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

FORMER Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) mayor Stephen Lawrence has been preselected as a candidate for a ‘winnable’ position on the NSW Labor Legislative Council ticket.

In 2021 the Labor Party introduced a ruling that 30 per cent of ‘winnable’ positions must go to candidates living in rural and regional NSW. Mr Lawrence’s political history includes a stint as mayor in the previous Council and running twice for a seat in the Legislative Assembly.

Throughout his political history Mr Lawrence has advocated and worked on issues including housing, transparency and identity in government, a drug court for the Dubbo region, and a rehabilitation centre.

“I feel that my legal and policy skills will be a good fit for the upper house as it is the house of review and does a lot of committee work,” Mr Lawrence said.

He said he is passionate about reducing social disadvantage by ensuring rural and regional communities get a fair share, a strong voice, human rights, and rule of law.

“I’ll be satisfied at the end of term if I make a contribution on these issues.”

Mr Lawrence is confident about his chances in next year’s election as he was

preselected in the seventh spot for Labor NSW. “Labor has won at least seven spots in every election, except 2011, in recent times,” he said.

“I’m not taking it for granted, I’ll need support from this community in the election, but I think I’ve got a real chance.”

Mr Lawrence intends to run a visible campaign for his seat to maximise his votes.

As Dubbo has a history of voting for The Nationals, Mr Lawrence hopes to gain a following from conservative voters as he will be representing the region in parliament.

“I would like to speak directly in saying this to conservative voters who will vote for Dugald (Saunders) in the lower house, I hope they will consider a vote for Labor and me in the Upper House to ensure that our region has two members of parliament and ask them to closely consider my record on important issues irrespective of party politics,” Mr Lawrence said.

“I certainly hope Dugald will support me, but I do say that with my tongue very considerably in my cheek.

“I haven’t spoken to him about it, but when I see him (next), I will be encouraging him to vote Labor in the Upper House.”

Mr Lawrence is looking forward to advocating his stance on community needs in the coming months.

Now that’s a proper hack: Medibank fiasco

By SHARON BONTHUYS JUST weeks after the Optus data breach had almost 10 million subscribers reeling, major private health provider Medibank announced something far worse.

In late October the company confi rmed that dark web criminals who penetrated the company’s security systems earlier in the month have accessed the private and sensitive personal data and medical histories of nearly four million customers. In plain English: the entire customer database has been accessed including private health customers with Medibank’s subsidiary company AHM. Narromine’s own cyber expert, DeveloperSteve Coochin summed it up quite simply: “Now that’s a proper hack.”

Media reports suggest a senior staff member’s credentials were stolen and sold to crim-

inals who then used them to gain access to the company’s secure network around October 12. However, the company only last week ‘fessed up to the full extent of the data breach, and the reality of what this means for customer information and privacy is horrifying.

“This one is way worse as far as malicious actors go.

[The private information that has been stolen is] likely to have already been sold a few times too, sadly,” DeveloperSteve said.

Medibank’s own privacy statement says the company collects personal information including name, age, employment details, email address and mobile phone number; fi nancial information, such as bank account details; sensitive information, including information about health, health services provided and claims; and

information about activities, including sporting and other lifestyle interests.

The company’s response to how it manages the security of customers’ personal information is limited to three lines referencing the Privacy Act. Multiple media reports on October 31 have alleged that Medibank is taking legal advice on paying the ransom demanded by the cyber criminals. The Australian Federal Police have reportedly warned against paying any ransoms, supported by the Australian government.

Home Affairs minister Hon. Clare O’Neil said on October 20: “The formal advice of the Australian government is: don’t pay a ransom. They’ll tell you all sorts of things about what will happen in the aftermath of paying a ransom.

By nature these people are liars, and we suggest not cooperating with them.”

On October 25, Minister O’Neil announced that the October 2022-23 Budget will provide $31.3 million in additional funding in 2022-23, providing cyber security services to agencies with fewer resources as part of its whole-of-Government Cyber Hub program uplift package.

The government will provide additional funding of $2 million in 2022-23 to assist scam victims to recover their identity, she said.

Minister O’Neil also stated that the government: “is progressing longer term options to help protect Australians from future incidents. This includes a new Cyber Security Strategy to build whole-of-nation cyber resilience, a review of the Privacy Act and tougher penalties for repeated or serious data breaches.”

At this stage, many of those people impacted by this horrible act are still waiting for

confi rmation of what information about themselves has been compromised. More importantly, what they need to do next.

DeveloperSteve Coochin said that these two recent cyber attacks provide a sobering reminder for anyone operating a business.

“It’s a timely reminder for businesses to review their internal infrastructure for handling customer information,” he said. He also said that individuals should carefully monitor online chat forums that are not encrypted, as these can potentially be accessed by criminals.

Some helpful tips for staying cyber safe have been prepared

by DeveloperSteve for Narromine Star readers. Other helpful resources can be found at cyber.gov.au.

Being safe online: Cyber security overview Contributed by DEVELOPERSTEVE COOCHIN NOT a week goes by these days where we don’t hear about some new cyber security incident. The recent spate of service companies is particularly troubling given the level of consumer data they hold.

From a technical perspective, these cyber security incidents are especially concerning considering the sophistication of some of the more recent attacks. Additionally, in some cases it does highlight the need for organisations to invest more in protecting their infrastructure.

The attackers, who are often referred to in the industry as “malicious actors”, will use a number of techniques to gain

access to a company’s core information technology (IT) infrastructure. This will often also be coupled with what is known as “social engineering” to gain additional information from a target consumer.

Here’s some things to remember when it comes to protecting your personal identifiable information (PII) from malicious attackers:

If you aren’t sure, dont click it RECENTLY I received an insurance renewal notice via email that was quite unexpected. Even more concerning was the insurance company it was issued from decided to use a different transactional website to their main one. To com-

pletely ensure the accuracy of the email, I rang the insurance company to confi rm the website they were using for renewals.

Where possible don’t click on email links. Instead, opt for using direct account based logins from apps and websites you know are made by the company. Also make sure that the little secure padlock is next to the web address (URL) in your browser. This is known as a “SSL certificate” and can be clicked on to verify the company that has issued it.

Be careful of what you publish online THIS topic is something that I think most people are learn-

ing about. Even the most innocent of holiday photos posted to social media, can hold key information that will validate intel that a malicious actor has for a target. Remember to check privacy settings when posting, as this will limit the circle of visibility.

It’s important to note that this also extends to messaging applications, too. Those conversations you have with family and friends are prone to being accessed on either side of the conversation, and contain valuable information. Instead look to use applications that have end to end encryption like an app called “Signal.”

End to end encryption means that your conversation is only viewable by you and your recipients with each message

being encrypted between you and the internet.

Set up a verbal phrase or codeword with friends ONE of the social hack methods floating around at the moment involves malicious actors who are pretending to be someone familiar with a target. A way to help safeguard against this is to have a verbal word or phrase, in the event that anyone needs to validate authenticity. Make it something fun and quite unique, for example “Sunday’s rainbow rain”.

Peter Cale and Kym Edmunds (back) present the trophy to the Vauxhall’s proud owners, Richard and Margaret Woodley from Wongarbon.

A classic car which is almost the same age as one of its owners stole the show at the Narromine Car Club’s recent Cars And Coffee event on October 30.

The pristine teal-coloured 1933 Vauxhall ‘VX’ Cadet belonging to Wongarbon residents Richard and Margaret Woodley took out Pick of the Day at the event. They were delighted to receive the unique trophy created by fellow classic car enthusiast, Narromine Car Club member and local barbed wire artisan Greg “Macca” MacIntyre.

Mr Woodley, 90, has been a member of the Dubbo Antique Automobile Club since it started in 1965. The award-winning Vauxhall isn’t the only classic car he and his wife own. An even older vehicle, a 1920 Buick which he restored himself, is also in his collection.

The Woodleys visited the Narromine Cars and Coffee event with their daughter, Sue Rugg, and thoroughly enjoyed the morning, made more special when they were presented with the award by Narromine Car Club president Kym Edmunds and Treasurer Peter Cale.

Mozzies, flies and feet: Caring for sheep in wet weather SHEEP producers across the state are battling mosquitoes, worms, fl ies and lameness in flocks from the continued wet and unseasonably cool conditions.

Local Land Services (LLS) is encouraging producers to continue closely monitoring sheep flocks and where possible, put management strategies in place to try and prevent internal parasites and flystrike.

Central West LLS Mixed Farming Officer Matt Jones said he understood it was a tough time for all producers experiencing flock issues on top of flooding.

“Talking with sheep producers around Nyngan, Trangie and Warren they are fighting a number of challenges at once.

“The wet conditions are directly causing feet issues with sheep either walking through water or mud, which is not allowing the feet to dry out and creating lameness,” Mr Jones said.

“Large bodies of water and an abundance of green grass has created the perfect conditions for mosquito populations to explode.”

North West LLS District Veterinarian Dr Shaun Slattery said many north west sheep flocks are impacted by flystrike and barber’s pole worm.

“Delays in shearing/crutching, chemical resistance and the need to avoid chemicals that will further delay shearing due to long Wool Harvest Intervals are all challenging for fly strike management.

“To assist with producer decision making, the Australian Wool Innovation website has useful resources.

“Wet and mild weather, mobs flood-iso-

lated in small areas and in some cases drench resistance, is also contributing to barber’s pole deaths.”

Flocks that have already seen barber’s pole cases are most at-risk as they now have heavy pasture larval contamination, Dr Slattery said.

“These will need increased management and drenching to prevent further deaths.”

Producers should contact their District Veterinarian or veterinary adviser to discuss ongoing management in these cases, he said.

South East LLS Regional Agricultural Landcare Facilitator Marien Stark said livestock growth rates would likely be suppressed by the ongoing wet, cooler conditions.

“In the Tablelands region of the South East, wool quality is expected to be compromised due to the excessive wet conditions with sheep more likely to experience fleece rot/green wool.”

Riverina LLS District Veterinarian Dr Dione Howard said their team had been working with landholders to diagnose lameness issues, discuss flystrike and worm prevention strategies and reduce the risk of metabolic disease associated with severe weather events.

“If producers have lame sheep the cause of lameness should be diagnosed to make sure the most effective treatment is used,” Dr Howard said.

“Managing livestock in ongoing wet conditions is challenging and we encourage people to contact LLS to discuss sheep flock management.”

The Astley Cup: 1923 Dubbo High School Rugby League Team Contributed by PATRICK BOURKE THE Astley Cup began in 1923 when the Dubbo High School rugby league team contested the Cup against Sacred Heart College, Dubbo. The Sacred Heart College (SHC) team put up a plucky performance, but the Dubbo High School team was too strong, winning the game by 32 points to four points.

After the Astley Cup game, Dubbo High School and SHC had a rugby league game which Dubbo High School won, nine points to three.

From this game, the selectors Brother Albert and Mr A Clark and Mr J Ryan selected the following junior team to defend Dubbo’s title at the Black and White Challenge Cup against Narromine on August 25, 1923.

The fi nal team was: full back, J Eddy (High School); three quarters, A Siemson (South Dubbo), H Lovett (High School), U Moore and S Lynch (SHC); five-eight, J Vaughan (SHC); V Deacon (High School); forwards, B Cook (SHC), H Wise & R Walden (High School), D Dowd (SHC), R Rivers & A Kinsella (South Dubbo).

Reserves: Backs, V Kesby & K Carson (High School), J Jennings (South Dubbo); forwards, B Jacobs (South Dubbo), W Hull (SHC), W Simpson (High School).

Dubbo successfully defended its title. The Black and White

1923 Dubbo High School rugby union team. The author states: “In the early years Dubbo High did play rugby union but rugby league was the dominant football code played by the high school.”

Challenge Cup was run with the senior challenge, the Johnny Walker Cup. When the Astley Cup competition recommenced in 1925, Dubbo High competed against Bathurst and Orange high schools in athletics, tennis, hockey (girls), and basketball (girls) as well as rugby union.

The basketball played then is what we know today as netball. The name changed to net-

ball in the 1960s when “American” basketball came to Australia. Today, boys soccer, girls soccer and boys basketball are also played in the Astley Cup.

Notable players When you look through the names of the players in the 1923 Dubbo High’s rugby league team you will fi nd two players who did very well in rugby union and rugby league

as well as two players who are noted for their service in World War II (WWII). f Ron Walden from Quambone played in four rugby union tests for Australia, including as captain in three of the tests. He represented NSW in many matches and played over 100 fi rst grade games for Manly in the Sydney rugby union competition. He was also a very prominent NSW

policeman. f Vern Deacon from Warren was a NSW City Firsts rugby league representative in 1928.

He played 24 fi rst grade games for University (1926-28) and 14 fi rst grade games for Balmain in 1929 in the Sydney rugby league competition. He also played in and coached rugby league teams in country NSW, including Warren and Trangie. f Harold (Harry) Lovett from Maryvale was Captain of the team and also the 1923 school captain. He was a lieutenant in the 2/2 Australian Infantry Battalion during WWII and was captured in Greece in 1941 and held in a German prisoner of war camp. His capture was relayed to his family by a fellow soldier, Gordon Blanchard, who was able to escape. Harry survived the war. f John (Jack) Eddy from Cathundral was a bombardier in the 2/5th Field Regiment and was killed in action in Borneo on July 6, 1945.

Jack’s parents had a property, “Tereweena”, at Cathundral near Trangie. His death was reported in the Narromine News and Trangie Advocate on July 13, 1945.

Information sources for these items: Astley Cup Jubilee by Harry Treverrow, 1973; newspapers on the TROVE website; NSW Rugby League Project website; Australia War Memorial’s records, and WWII Nominal Roll (Veterans’ Affairs Department, Canberra).

The Eddy Family From ‘Tereweena’ Cathundral Contributed by PATRICK BOURKE FROM the information available from the old newspapers that have been digitised and are now freely available on TROVE (until 1955) and from other sources, it can be concluded that the Eddy family would have come to Cathundral from Melbourne after Henry Eddy had completed his Victorian Intermediate Certificate in 1913 when he was 15 years old. Hence, Sydney Jon-

athan Eddy very likely purchased ‘Tereweena’ between 1914 and 1919.

It is interesting to read in the newspapers that the small school at Cathundral closed in early 1920 and Mrs Eddy and her children around this time moved to Dubbo so that the children could further their education.

The older child, Henry, very likely remained with his father at the Cathundral farm.

There were three children in the Eddy family: Henry

Franklin, Selina Margaret (Margaret), and John Alton Eddy (Jack). In the Dubbo Liberal and Macquarie Advocate, January 1922, it was reported that John Eddy from the Dubbo Primary School had passed the Qualifying Certificate for entrance to Dubbo High School.

There he passed the Intermediate Certificate (year 9) in 1924 with good grades. From 1925 it appears that Jack and very likely his mother and Margaret returned to live

with Sydney and Henry at ‘Tereweena’, the family farm at Cathundral.

From all reports, they were a close family. Jack and Henry Eddy were mentioned in the local paper regarding their involvement in sports around the Trangie area.

Tragically, Sydney Eddy died suddenly in June 1936 but the family continued to run the family farm. ‘Tereweena’ was still being run by Henry Eddy until at least the mid-1950s.

The three children all made contributions to the World War II effort. Jack joined the Australian Army in 1940, Henry joined on a part time basis in 1942, and Margaret joined the Voluntary Aid Detachment (VAD) and worked in hospitals. Sadly, Jack was killed in action in Borneo on 6 July 1945, aged 37 years. NSW Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriage records show that Henry died in Sydney during 1969.

Mudyigalang gives cancer the boot

By SHARON BONTHUYS EARLIER this week the members of the Mudyigalang “Many Hands” Craft Group presented the Narromine Cancer Support Group (NCSG) with a cheque for $1017.95.

This included the proceeds of their popular “give cancer the boot” initiative and a raffle held during October, said spokesperson Robyn Brown.

The group invited the public to buy a paper “boot” and write a message on

it which could then be displayed in the group’s Dandaloo Street shop.

I bought one of these boots myself during the Dolly Festival street party on October 1 in support of this initiative. So did many others. The October raffle was also well supported.

The funds will contribute to the ongoing work of the NCSG supporting cancer sufferers.

Stand tall regional tour: it’s okay not to be okay

Narromine students Standing Tall.

ABOUT 2,300 school students and over 200 teachers flocked to the Dubbo Showgrounds on November 3 for the second leg of the inaugural Stand Tall Regional Tour.

Subsidised by the NSW Government, the event brought together inspirational speakers such as Olympic medallist Nicola Mcdermott, The

Narromine students attending the event. PHOTOS: NPS FACEBOOK. Voice 2021 winner, Bella Taylor-Smith, pro-fessional freestyle motocross riders Lance Russell and Ryley Davis, and keynote speaker Mi-chael Crossland.

Member for the Dubbo electorate Dugald Saunders said it was great to see such a huge turnout after what has been a really challenging few years

for young people.

“Events like this are so important as they equip our students with resilience, strength and decision-making skills, with a key focus on mental health and wellbeing,” Mr Saunders said.

Minister for Women, Regional Health and Mental Health Bronnie Taylor said the event

pro-vided an opportunity for young people to improve their mental health and learn resilience skills.

“October was Mental Health Month and the theme this year was ‘tune in’. I want to remind everyone to tune in with your friends, family and school mates – and if you are not feeling great, talk to your school

nurse, your teachers or your parents,” Ms Taylor said.

“Events like this remind our young people that it’s okay to not be okay. It is also wonderful that after the challenges of the past few years, Stand Tall has brought everyone together and reminded us that we’re not alone.”

Macquarie Regional Library introduces exciting early literacy program Contributed by MACQUARIE REGIONAL LIBRARY MACQUARIE Regional Library (MRL) is introducing an exciting new early literacy program to help children prepare for school.

MRL Manager Kathryn McAlister said the 1,000 Books Before School (1,000BBS) program would equip children with critical early literacy skills. “[This program] will encourage parents and carers across our libraries to read with their children regularly and help them develop a love of language and reading. Reading together is a great way to establish strong early literacy skills and a great way to bond with your child.”

The program encourages a love of books and fosters early literacy skills in children from birth to five years – the time in a child’s development when the brain develops most rapid-ly.

Parents and carers are invited to start their child’s reading adventure by vis-

iting the library to register their child and receive their free reading kit, including a library bag, book, and their fi rst reading log.

Every book your child completes or actively listens to is recorded on their reading log, and they earn exciting rewards as they make their way towards 1,000 books. Children can start the program for free at any time before school.

Even newborns can join.

While reading 1,000 books may seem daunting, reading one book a day at home, with fami-ly or even at library activities means children will have met this goal in less than three years.

The program complements existing early years literacy programs available at the li-brary, including Storytime and Rhyme Time.

For more information about the 1000 Books Before School program and additional early literacy programs available at Macquarie Regional Library, visit the library website or pop in and see your helpful local library team.

Shelby White is also part of the new program.

Dubbo academy to offer top level HSC alternative

By SHARON BONTHUYS AN internationally recognised, top level alternative to the Higher School Certificate (HSC) will be available in Dubbo for the fi rst time next year.

The Central West Leadership Academy (CWLA) will become the fi rst educational institution west of the Blue Mountains to introduce the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma program for Years 11 and 12.

The program is a “game changer” according to academy principal Mandi Randell, who said the IB diploma equips students with a high level education but removes the competitiveness between students that is currently in

play in the HSC system.

IB students consistently achieve a very high Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR), Ms Randell said.

The ATAR is a competitive system of “exam-based ranking” of students resulting in scores from 0.00 to 99.95, which helps determine how tertiary offers are made. With many universities now making early entry offers to applicants, critics of the ATAR system suggest the ranking system is “irrelevant”.

The average ATAR for IB participants in Australia last year was 94.3, Ms Randell said.

Dubbo-based IB students completing the program through the CWLA will also be eligible for a “regional disadvantage

loading” of five ATAR points added to their rank.

Ms Randell says the IB diploma removes the competition between students for ranking.

“Your score is your own and you’re judged on the international standard. Everyone can walk out with a top mark. It’s a really rigorous course that makes students university-ready.”

The IB program requires students to undertake mathematics, science, English, human science and its environment, a language and an arts subject. Three must be taken at high level and three at standard level in the IB program, which also equips students with the skills to write university-level complex re-

search papers.

“The competition is in the world, not in their room.

They’re a team,” Ms Randell says of IB students.

“The Academy wants our students to choose their life from a position of strength at the end of Year 12. Not only will they have the ATAR but also the academic, the hard work and the executive functioning skills to fi nish the degree.

“I believe the IB better prepares students for university and for life.”

Offering the prestigious internationally recognised IB program in Dubbo is a coup for the CWLA, which only opened its doors in 2018. Almost five years later, Ms Ran-

dell and her team are excited about starting the IB program next January. Staff have been busy working through the three-level teaching accreditation process required by the International Baccalaureate Organisation (IBO) to deliver the program. The CWLA has been accredited by the IBO to run the program from next year.

Further information about the IB diploma program will be available at the CWLA parent information evening planned for Narromine tonight (Thursday, November 10) at the United Services Memorial Club. See the advertisement for further details.

The Nearest The Pin (NTP) went to Viv Halbisch with only one ball in the prize kitty. The NAGA prize for the ladies went to Gail White on 11 points.

Over on the back nine, 14 men took part with Bob Fletcher taking the major prize on 24 points. It was a close battle for second place with Vince Ferrari and Greg Kearines both on 23 points. The count back declared Greg Kearines the second placegetter. Once again, no NTP winner this week but Ross Smith won the NAGA prize with 11 points. It was a very enjoyable morning’s golf.

In the clubhouse attention turned to the pool table and there were just enough players for one match. Chris Harding and Ross King were drawn to play Bob Fletcher and Terry Willis. Surprise, surprise, Terry went in off the black to give victory to King and Harding who took the title of Pool Champs for the week.

Next week, the girls will play the back nine while the men take on the front nine with the hit off at the usual time.

See you all at the 19th.

RACING NG ORT REPORT

By COLIN HODGES

Coonamble Friday October 28th BACK in action after an injury enforced lay off, jockey Andrew Banks was at his best when winning on Epica on Friday at the Coonamble meeting which had been transferred from Moree due to flooding at that town.

Formerly from Gulargambone and a successful Sydney-based jockey for many years, Andrew Banks is renowned for his powerful riding in a close fi nish.

Trained at Gilgandra by Kieren Hazleton, Epica was midfield to the home turn in the 1400 metres Dad and Dave Turf and Evergreen Turf Maiden Plate.

Taking the lead, Epica ($17) was strongly challenged but fought on gamely to win by a short head from Camp Cove (Julia Presits, $15) with Holly Road (Jake Pracey-Holmes, $5) fi lling third place.

Camp Cove, placed nine times but still winless after 33 starts, backed up the next day at Dubbo and recorded yet another placing when a close second to Shubick.

Making it three wins and

Coonamble and Warren get to race a second placing from four starts since being transferred to Dubbo trainer Brett Robb, Morgenstern (Clayton Gallagher, $2.60 to $2.20 favourite) fi nished strongly to beat the leader Heredero (Kelsey Lenton, $10) and Larynx (Shayleigh Ingelse, $17) in the 1200 metres Geronimo Farm Equipment Benchmark 66 Handicap.

The very much in form Clayton Gallagher had earlier won the 1100 metres Inland Petroleum Class One Handicap on the Sue Grills, Tamworth-trained Just In Reach ($4 to $2.60 favourite).

Tamworth stables had a good day with their other winners being Mr Severino (Ben Looker, $3.50) trained by Sue Grills, Shamalie (Ashley Morgan, $3.30) trained by Cameron Crockett and Giftgiver (Chelsea Hillier, $4.20) trained

by Cody Morgan.

From the Brett Thompson stable at Gulgong, Apollo Star (Mikayla Weir, $5.50) led throughout in the 1100 metres Keady and Nalder Families Maiden Plate while the Connie Greig, Dubbo-trained Wonfontein (Julia Presits) as a $31 outsider came from fourth when winning the 1400 metres Nutrien Ag Benchmark 58 Handicap.

With so many meetings washed out over recent months in NSW, trainers were relieved to have their horses racing on a good track at Coonamble.

Warren Cotton Cup Sunday November 6th.

A warrior of many battles, A Magic Zariz with yet another gallant performance won the 1400 metres QUBE Logistics Cotton Cup before a very good crowd on Sunday at Warren.

Bred by Wally Prout of Gilgandra and owned and trained

by Brett Robb at Dubbo, the 10-year-old gelding A Magic Zariz took the record to 15 wins and 19 placings from 64 starts and ranks as one of the best and most honest gallopers to race in the central and western regions for many years.

Not only did Brett Robb train the winner but also the second and third placegetters Great Buy and All Words In the prestigious Cotton Cup. Great Buy and Larynx led to the home turn with the topweight A Magic Zariz being given a nice run on the rails while the favourite Rent A Rock was under pressure and Eva’s Deel from well back was commencing to gain ground.

Very well ridden by apprentice Shayleigh Ingelse, A Magic Zariz ($8) took the lead and safely held off Great Buy (Michael Heagney, $4.80) and All Words (Grant Buckley, $7).

During a memorable day for Brett Robb the Dubbo trainer also won with Winning Factor and Morgenstern Winning Factor (Clayton Gallagher, $2.80 favourite) dashed clear

turning for home and lasted to win the 1400 metres Nutrien Ag Solutions Maiden Plate from Edith’s Joy (Anna Roper, $4.60) and Camp Cove (Julia Presits, $6).

Since being transferred to the Brett Robb stable Morgenstern has recorded a second placing and four wins from five starts, the latest being in the 1000 metres B and D Brouff Earthmoving Warren Jockey Club Sprint.

From midfield, Morgenstern (Clayton Gallagher, $2.80 fav.) came down the centre to beat Seguso (Billy Cray, $3.30) by a short head with over two lengths to Jerle (Ken Dunbar, $21).

First leg of a treble for Clayton Gallagher was the Michael Mulholland, Dubbo trained Wunambal ($2.25 fav.) which raced second to the home turn and responded to strong riding to beat Merdeka (Julia Presits, $21) by a half head with Yallah Sunrise (Grant Buckley, $7.50).

Third in the 1600 metres Richardson and Sinclair/ Queensland Cotton Class Two Handicap.

Emphasising the strength of the picnic circuit the winner of the recent Picnic Championship Final at Dubbo, Hemsted.

The third placegetter Brooklyn Star, both backed up to win at the Warren TAB meeting for Dubbo trainer Connie Greig.

Brooklyn Star (Anna Roper,

$3.80) raced handy to the lead before beating Hampton Cove (Jake Pracey-Holmes, $14) and Preemptory (Grant Buckley, $9.50) in the 1000 metres Matt’s Mates Class Three Handicap.

In the 1400 metres Hutcheon and Pearce Benchmark 58 Handicap, Memories (Anna Roper, $2.80 fav.) broke clear but was overhauled and beaten a long head by Hemsted (Julia Presits, $6) with two lengths to the third placed Vital Verse (Grant Buckley,$9).

Grant Buckley brought the Clint Lundholm, Dubbo-trained Obey ($5) with a well-timed run from fourth to win the 1000 metres Halcroft and Bennett Benchmark 58 Handicap from Foxstorm (Julia Presits, $4.80) and the leader Apollo Star (Billy Cray, $9.50).

Gilgandra-based Bryan Dixon prevented a clean sweep

by Dubbo trainers at Warren when he won the 1000 metres Macquarie Toyota/Cumberland Country Golf Club Maiden Handicap with Flying Foxy.

Apprentice Chelsea Hillier was aboard Flying Foxy ($11) which swept past the leaders Tablet (Anna Roper, $6.50) and Smart And Dapper (Clayton Gallagher, $5.50) over the concluding stages.

Following months of excessive rain the Warren track recovered to be in outstanding order for the Cotton Cup meeting.

Narromine Aero Club hosts a very special visiting group Contributed by STEWART HIGNETT, NARROMINE AERO CLUB NARROMINE Aero Club had the pleasure of hosting the Annual General Meeting (AGM) for the Australasian Tribe of the International Comanche Society (ICS) last weekend.

Originally set down to be held in Bundaberg a few weeks ago, it was cancelled due to the wild weather lashing eastern Australia at the time. The group still needed to have their AGM so they selected Narromine as a good central point for all to attend.

Seventeen members made the trip along with seven aircraft. As well as a visit to the Narromine Aviation Museum and Taronga Western Plains Zoo, the group was well looked after and fed by Narromine Aero Club and Narromine Gliding Club.

The Australasian Tribe of the ICS is an active group within the US based ICS, whose objectives are the safe and continued operation of the Piper Comanche and Twin Comanche aircraft.

The Tribe represents 91 members and 87 of the 180 Comanches in Australia and New Zealand, comprising 93 singles and 68 twins as at July 1, 2019. The membership continues to grow as does the number of Comanches in Australia with the continuing imports of this popular type from around the world.

New name, new chapter, clean slate

By SHARON BONTHUYS IN breaking news, just before this paper went to press, the Trangie Magpies Rugby League Club announced it would be changing its club name and emblem for the new season.

President Luke Phillips announced on social media that at its meeting on November 5,

the club voted unanimously to change the name back to the “Trangie Rams”, a name previously used at some point in the club’s history.

“This has been something that’s been spoken about now for some time and it was unanimously voted that the Trangie club will change its name back to the Trangie Rams,” he said.

Rebranding will start now

and the club aims to move forward with its fresh start and a new culture.

“Baradine are the sole Magpies in our competition,” he said.

In moving forward, the club will certainly not forget its past.

“We [won’t] just forget about the Magpies. The Magpies will always be a part of who we are

and we will always celebrate our history as Magpies.

“But right now we [need] a change and we have had to make some big ones. What we have been doing hasn’t been working, simple as that!

“We hope that everyone will be on board with the change and continue to support the Rams just as they did the Magpies.

“It’s a new chapter, clean slate.”

With 2023 being the 40th anniversary of the 1983 grand final team, and a new fresh approach to the club as it heads for the new season, there is indeed much to celebrate.

We wish the Trangie Rams all the best and look forward to watching them charge into the new year.

THE Narromine Wetlands parkrun has been suspended until further notice due to the state of the track and continuing bad weather.

The group announced its decision to suspend the weekly parkruns at the Narromine Wetlands course via social media on November 8.

“We will continue to monitor the track and its surface to ensure a safe running course for everyone,” the announcement said.

“We are unable to have an alternative track at the existing wetlands area due to other issues of safety and accessibility.”

NARROMINE BOWLING CLUB UPDATE Contributed by RICK BOHM ONLY seven Consistency Singles nominations have been received to date. With a bit of luck we may get enough players to run this event shortly. Watch this space.

Plans are underway for our club’s two-day Robert Handsaker Ford Triples Tournament next month and nominations are starting to flow in for this event.

Some excellent prize money is up for grabs and we expect the “house full” sign to be lit.

Some 14 players lined up on Sunday morning for the Chook Run and after the dust had settled Ross Wallace and Bill Wilkie topped off a nice week of bowls winning on Thursday and Sunday. Not a bad achievement.

Well short and sweet this week, but I did enjoy watching the live streaming of the international fours tournament from West Dubbo. Did you see any of it? I Know Joy and Arnie did; they were seated in the peanut gallery when I was watching the fi nal on Saturday afternoon.

Well that’s all for me for another week. Let’s hope the warmer weather keeps on keeping on.
