Community kitchen connects locals STORY: PAGE 14 100 years young: Dawne MacDougall By SHARON BONTHUYS TRANGIE resident Dawne MacDougall celebrated her centenary last Thursday with an “all-day open house”, inviting friends and family to join her for “cuppa and cake”. Join her they did, with people travelling from all around to wish Trangie’s newest centenarian a happy 100th birthday. Former Trangie residents Meryl Ramsay and Annette McCalman travelled from Warren for a cuppa and cake with Mrs MacDougall in her beautiful back yard. Not just any cake… a splendid three-part cake made by a friend, the Narromine Star team were told when we stopped by. Friend of 66 years, Fay Wallace, was also delighted to attend Mrs MacDougall’s special day. Mrs Wallace first met Mrs MacDougall when she came to Trangie from Blackheath to be married. “We met on the golf course,” Mrs Wallace said, indicating they have remained close friends ever since. Mrs MacDougall’s house was overﬂowing with cards from friends and wellwishers. The one card everyone was waiting to see, however, the congratulatory one from the new monarch, His Majesty, King Charles III, hadn’t arrived in time, sadly. Continued page 3

80 entrants to contest World Gliding Championships By SHARON BONTHUYS SOME 80 entrants from 23 countries have registered to contest the 37th FAI (Fédération Aéronautique Internationale) World Gliding Championships which get underway in Narromine early next month. Entries closed on October 31 for the championships which will be held at the Narromine Aerodrome from December 2-16. Hundreds of people are expected to visit the region from interstate and around the world over the next few weeks to preapre for, compete, support and or spectate at this prestigious aviation competition. The phone barely stopped ringing while the Narromine Star caught up with Narromine Gliding Club identity, Beryl Hartley, to talk about the event. Mrs Hartley has been working closely with a large team of event coordinators to plan and prepare for the event, supporting them with local logistical and resource coordination. As we spoke, Mrs Hartley was ﬁelding calls about the arrival of international shipping containers carrying competition gliders and equipment, ahead of the competitors who will arrive over the coming weeks. She was also very excited to announce that 65 volunteers would support

Opening and closing ceremonies WHILE practice for the world championships will formally commence on November 28, the event kicks off with an opening ceremony in Narromine on Saturday, December 2. “Support from Destination NSW will allow us to have a fantastic opening ceremony at Cale Oval. All the town is invited to attend,” Mrs Hartley said. Ambassadors and staff from

various embassies, VIPs, politicians and more are expected to attend the opening ceremony, which will be the fi rst time that all teams will be together at the event. At the opening ceremony, uniformed Air Cadets will carry country signs, followed by the flag bearers from each country and the teams. The event will include a Welcome to Country by Auntie Ruth Carney, speeches, the official opening, the raising of the FAI flag, and performances by the Narromine High School choir and dance group.

Local businesses to benefit MRS Hartley said the world championships will bring a lot of money into the local community and the wider region, and invited businesses to get on board. “Last time we did this [in 2015 with the world juinor gliding championships,] it was worth $1.5 million [to the community]. This year it’s going to be worth much more,” she said. Funding support from Destination NSW will provide $25 daily food vouchers for the duration of the event for those involved, which can be spent at Narromine businesses including cafes, restaurants, pubs, and clubs. Mrs Hartley estimates that between $3,000 and $4,000 a day will be spent locally on food through the voucher redemption process alone. Available accommodation has also been booked solidly for several months. “The money is going into this town, this region and this community,” she said. Exactly how much money will be spent by the 80 competitors and their teams from 23 countries, as well as local and interstate visitors, cannot be determined at this time. The inﬂux of visitors for an extended perielsewhere. The chance of a thunderstorm in the afternoon and evening.

Chance of any rain: 40% Central West Slopes and Plains area: Partly cloudy. High chance of showers on the northern slopes, slight chance elsewhere. The chance of a thunderstorm in the north in the morning and afternoon. Winds north-

od so close to Christmas will be welcome news to local businesses. Mrs Hartley encouraged businesses to provide promotional inserts for the Narromine Shire Council’s event welcome pack, which will be distributed to competitors and their teams. “If you want the competitors to come to you to spend their money, put something in the pack,” she urged.

Planning and logistics MRS Hartley has been heavily involved in the logistics of bringing dozens of competitors to Australia for the world championships. “There is so much work involved in getting the shipping, customs, quarantine, and transport within Australia organised. It’s an enormous task,” she said. One challenge has been ﬁnding a local solution to lifting the shipping containers off the delivery trucks as they arrive, a problem they didn’t have with the world junior gliding championships in Narromine in 2015. Paul McCallum from Inland Petroleum has come to the rescue in this regard, a grateful Mrs Hartley said. She is also appreciative of the support provided by Narromine Shire Council. “The support from locals has been extraordinary,” she said.

From page 1 Born in Trangie on October 26, 1923, Mrs MacDougall married Allen Ian MacDougall and they welcomed their much loved children Allen, Robert, Scott and Kim (deceased). Now a proud grandma of 12, Mrs MacDougall’s 17th great-grandchild will be born soon. The spritely Mrs MacDougall credits a healthy, active lifestyle and a little nightly wine for her longevity. “I’ve always been a sporty person and it’s the thing that’s kept me going. Horseriding, golf, tennis, bowling. I also enjoy some white wine every night,” she said. Mrs MacDougall has Life Memberships at the Trangie Golf Club and Trangie Bowling Club for her many years’ involvement with both clubs. A special centenary celebration dinner was held at the Trangie Golf Club on October 28. Kath Bennett was one of many people who attended the dinner and has kindly given us her reﬂections of the night. Happy 100th birthday, Dawne!

Dawne celebrates centenary at special dinner By KATH BENNETT THE Trangie Golf Club was aglitter with decorations on Saturday night for the 100th birthday celebration dinner for Mrs Dawne MacDougall. Dawne is a member of the Richardson family, a local and highly respected family of many years’ standing. Her son Robert spoke at length and with great affection about his mother, and with much humour, about the early years of the family. In her speech, granddaughter Phoebe showed the great love she and the other grandchildren have for their grandmother. Dawne’s nephew, Geoff Richardson, reminisced about his early days when he spent much of his time with the MacDougall family. Both Pam Ferrari and Sybil Adams spoke on behalf of Dawne’s many friends, and her great-granddaughter Daisy sang “You Are My Sunshine”. During the evening, a con-

tinuous digital display of family photos was running for the entertainment of guests. For those who may not know, Dawne played a great game of golf and through her golfing years won many championships. She holds a Life Membership of the Trangie Golf Club, which she has supported these many years. Dawne also holds a Life Membership at the Trangie Bowling Club, where the honour boards display her name across many years. Dawne is still involved with the Bowling Club today, where she attends many events, and enjoys a game of cards with the girls on Friday nights. On any given day, Dawne can be found closely following the progress of younger players who she introduced to the game. As the party drew to a close, Dawne thanked her family and guests for their love and support and the many happy memories. It was a wonderful party for an amazing person who is held in high esteem by all who know her. Happy 100th birthday, Dawne!

Don’t forget to pack your manners for your next road trip WHEN you pack up your vehicle for your next trip, don’t forget to pack your manners as well. This advice comes from Compare the Market (CTM), whose research has revealed more than a quarter of Australian drivers have experienced road rage in the past 12 months. Of the 27.5 per cent of drivers who indicated they had experienced road rage, over three quarters of those (77.9 per cent) stated that they witnessed it, while 17.8 per cent said it had happened to them,

and 4.3 per cent admitted they were the perpetrators. At state-level, Queenslanders experienced road rage the most often (32 per cent), with New South Wales (27 percent) and Victoria (26 per cent) rounding out the top three. Age-wise, Gen Z’ers were almost twice as likely to see road rage (36.5 per cent) compared to Baby Boomers (19.1 per cent). Adrian Taylor, CTM General Manager of General Insurance, said distractions like road rage can easily turn into accidents.

“No one should have to endure being sworn at, tailgated or honked at aggressively and it’s surprising to see so many Australians saying they’ve been involved in acts of road rage,” Mr Taylor said. “These actions, regardless of whether people are the victim, perpetrator or just a witness, create unnecessary distractions, which could lead to accidents on our already busy roads. “Common road rage acts such as abuse, speeding, tailgating and even changing

lanes erratically can [also] be considered punishable offences by the law. It’s best to think twice before letting your anger get the better of you on the road.” Mr Taylor also said that while some behaviours of other motorists could be triggering, keeping a cool head can mean a safe arrival at your destination. He provided a list of ‘Do’s and Don’ts’ for road users: DO z Drive to the road rules in your state or territory

z Drive to the speed limit z Let people merge and overtake z Give enough space between you and the car in front of you. z Indicate correctly, with plenty of warning for other drivers. DON’T z Tailgate z Flash your lights or honk unless absolutely necessary z Speed z Block intersections z React to road rage z Police other drivers (leave this for the authorities).

BRIAN’S BIBLE BITS CWA RECIPE OF THE WEEK

Coffee biscuits By NARROMINE CWA Ingredients: 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 cup brown sugar 85g butter 1 egg 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla 1 tablespoon milk 2 cups SR flour 2 tablespoons instant coffee Method: Beat sugar into butter, add egg, vanilla and milk. Beat well. Add flour and coffee. Mix thoroughly, roll into balls, dip tops in sugar. Place on trays and flatten with a fork. Hot oven 8-10 minutes. Can be used for coffee kisses too!

Correction IN last week’s Narromine Star we referred to Dr Niroshini Wikramasinghe as “the” practice principal at Narromine Shire Family Health Centre, when she is one of two co-principals in the role with Dr Neil McCarthy. Apologies for this oversight.

Singing songs of praise in their cells: Paul and Silas trust God “AFTER they had been severely ﬂogged, they were thrown into prison and the jailer was commanded to guard them carefully. When he received these orders, he put them in the inner cell and fastened their feet in the stocks. About midnight, Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them.” (Acts 16:23–25). Paul and Silas were just going around, loving and obeying God. They hadn’t done anything wrong. But someone stole their clothes. Then someone hits them with a rod. Then someone chained them up and tossed them in prison. That doesn’t sound like a fun day! Poor Paul and Silas could have gotten bitter and been angry with God. What kind of a mission was this anyway? Where was God? They could have imagined that God had left them. But they didn’t. They knew that in tough times, God was the only one on their side. So, that night in the dark cell, Paul and Silas sang. They knew that their mission to tell the world about Jesus was a tough one. Not everyone would believe, and many

Shakespeare FUNERALS DUBBO

would try to silence or persecute them. But they were not discouraged They knew that Jesus suffered through tough times as well, but God never left him. In fact, God raised him from the dead. This is why they were able to sing! We can learn so much from these guys. When life is hard, we have to keep on singing and praying because Jesus is right there with us. Jesus knows exactly how diff icult life can get. But he promises to never leave us. And if Jesus, the conqueror of death is with us, he is always worthy of our thanks and praise. The Apostle Paul was a very busy guy, teaching everyone everywhere he went about Jesus. Many people believed and were saved! Some people believed simply because of what Paul said. But there were others who studied the Scriptures to see if what Paul taught about Jesus was really true. They knew that God was the ultimate source of truth, not just some man named Paul! Jesus always taught about himself using the scriptures. He didn’t just

talk about who he was and tell people to believe in him. He used the Bible to show people that he really was the Messiah they were waiting for. After God raised him from the dead, he was walking with two men who were very sad that Jesus had been cruciﬁed. They didn’t recognise that it was Jesus right there with them! Jesus reminded them of everything the scriptures said about him — that he was supposed to suffer and die, but that God would raise him from the dead. Jesus knew the power of the Word of God, to help those two men understand what had happened on the Cross. The scriptures give us all that we need in order to know Jesus and have a relationship with God. In the scriptures, we can hear from God directly. PRAYER: “Lord, when times get tough, I know I can depend on you. So, dear Jesus, as I read your Word please show me how I can apply your Word to my life. Amen.” By THE REVEREND BRIAN SCHMALKUCHE, ANGLICAN DIOCESE OF BATHURST

Rural revive: Health, wellness and beauty in the bush By RENEE HORSTMAN HELLO, I’m delighted to provide weekly insights about health and beauty, promoting holistic wellbeing. My name is Renee Horstman, and you may already know me from my work at Innersense Beauty in Kierath’s Shopping Square, Narromine. To start, I’d like to talk about boosting mental health with the healing power of nature walks. In our busy lives, it’s easy to become overwhelmed and stressed as we are bombarded with things needing our attention. However, an antidote to these modern woes can be as simple as taking a walk in the great outdoors. Nature walks offer a host of benefits for mental health, and they’re easily accessible, even in rural settings. Some ways in which the soothing wonders of nature can positively impact our wellbeing are as follows. Reduced stress: Nature walks allow us to escape the bustle of daily life, even in the bush. The serene landscapes, from lush bush walks to red dirt tracks, provide a tranquil setting in which to unwind. Studies have shown that time spent in natural surroundings can lower cortisol levels (the body’s stress hormone), leading to a sense of calm and relaxation. Improved mood: The natural world is fi lled with beauty. Seeing trees, flowers, sunsets, birds and wildlife can

spark feelings of joy and wonder, increasing the production of feel-good neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine which leave us in a happier state of mind. Enhanced cognitive function: Nature walks stimulate our senses and engage our minds. The sensory-rich environment can boost cognitive function, improve focus, and enhance problem-solving skills. It’s a mental workout with the outdoors and nature as the gym. Connection to the earth: In rural areas, the connection to the land is especially strong. Nature walks reinforce this bond, instilling a sense of belonging to the environment and fostering an appreciation for the natural world. This connection can increase self-esteem and decrease feelings of isolation. Reduced symptoms of depression and anxiety: Studies have shown that regular nature walks can alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety. The natural world provides a peaceful backdrop for reflection and contemplation. In rural settings, the therapeutic potential of nature walks is even more defined. Whether you’re strolling through the bush, along a riverbank, or simply enjoying rural landscapes, you’re taking a step towards better mental health. The healing power of nature is always just a walk away. Until next time, Renee.

The Narromine Wetlands provide a great open space to enjoy the outdoors, and comes with its own local residents. PHOTO: NARROMINE STAR.

Community brekky Shop Local ‘n Win starts mental health conversations

So many chances to win at this year’s local shopping promotions in the Narromine Shire. PHOTO: NARROMINE SHIRE COUNCIL.

This amazing team delivered a successful community cares breakfast. PHOTOS: NARROMINE STAR. By SHARON BONTHUYS

The Tradies in Sight Team. By SHARON BONTHUYS SOME meaningful conversations about mental health were held at the inaugural Narromine Cares Community Breakfast in Dundas Park on October 28. Event organisers, the Narromine Jets Rugby League Club and mental health advocacy Tradies In Sight, were pleased with the constant stream of people who stopped for a free barbecue breakfast and a chat. At least two meaningful conversations were held with people in need of mental health support, organisers said, and that’s what it’s all about – reaching those who need support. Jo Efoti from Tradies in Sight said it was the quality of conversa-

tions held that was important, not the quantity. “Our aim is one meaningful conversation [per event],” she said. “[We want them to] go away feeling empowered to know how to take the next step.” A similar event held by Tradies in Sight in Dubbo on October 25 attracted more than 400 people, Ms Efoti said. Sally Everett from the Narromine Jets thanked event sponsors Macquarie Credit Union, Charles Sturt University and Narromine Shire Council for getting behind the event and supporting mental health awareness. She also thanked other supporters including the Plaza Deli who provided coffee, Pink-a-Boo Designs

for supplying event-themed biscuits, Mumble Peg for providing orange juice for the breakfast, and her husband, Anthony Everett, for cooking up a storm on the barbecue. “We hope to make this an annual event as part of Mental Health Awareness Month,” Mrs Everett said. If you or someone you know needs support, please contact: 131114 Lifeline, lifeline.org.au 1300 78 99 78 MensLine, mensline. org.au 1300 224 636 Beyond Blue, beyondblue.org.au/forums 1800 551 800 Kids Helpline, kidshelpline.com.au

The Shop Local promotion started this week in Narromine Shire and runs through until December 13. Winners will be announced on December 19. Highlights of the promotion aiming to attract regional shoppers include: f Super Saturday, November 4, and f Thursday Late Night Shopping, December 7.

Look out for the Shop Local ﬂags, entry forms and entry boxes throughout the Narromine region. The Narromine Star is participating in this year’s Shop Local, and if you advertise with us during the promotion period, we’ll pop an entry into the draw for you. If you shop in Trangie, you’re doubly lucky because not only do you have the Narromine Shire Shop Local promotion there, but the good folk at the Trangie Action Group (TAG) are also running their own TAG Inc Shop ‘n Win competition. Two competitions for the price of one! The Shop ‘n Win runs a little bit differently at Trangie and requires a bigger spend. Entry conditions are on the reverse side of the ticket so be sure to read them to avoid disappointment when the multiple prizes are drawn at the Christmas event on December 16, when you must be present to claim a prize. Attach your Shop ‘n Win purchase receipts totalling a minimum of $50 from the participating businesses to the official entry form and place it in one of the entry boxes located around Trangie. Prizes include four x $250 gift vouchers, one x $500 gift voucher and one x $750 gift voucher to be spent at supporting local Trangie businesses, and entries close on the same day as drawn.

‘Sunrise at Kangaroo Hill’ winning photo A STRIKING and iconic photo, entitled ‘Sunrise at Kangaroo Hill’ near Lightning Ridge, has been chosen as the winner of my 2023 Christmas Card Photo Competition. This image was taken by Naomi Stone and captures the vibrant sunrises and rugged beauty of the Far West. Sunrise at Kangaroo Hill was one of a selection of entries received in the 2023 Christmas Card Photo Competition, which received fewer entries than the previous year but of an incredible standard. A total of 14 selected photos including the winner are listed in a Media Release on my website and will be featured on my 2023 Christmas Card and 2024 Calendar.

Dubbo, as a town, is constantly-expanding and presenting some incredible business opportunities as more people choose to live and work in the area. This is definitely the largest town in the Parkes electorate, and a central point for many people further west to access services, as well as being a thoroughfare for freight, a stopping point between Brisbane and Melbourne, and attractive to tourists. Given the challenges of reThe Art Fair was officially opened by Toby Meagher, Director Michael Reid Galleries, on Friday night at the Western Plains Cultural Centre. It was wonderful to see so many people supporting this amazing event and appreciating the work of our local artists. I look forward to 2024! OCTOBER was Mental Health Month, and this year’s theme was ‘We All Have a Role to Play’. Promoting genuine con-

Cost of living continues to cripple households and businesses WHILE the Labor government has been distracted, costs of living have continued to soar, and there is an imbalance in the way these are felt between nections and conversations about mental health is what Dubbo Cares Day was all about. Thank you to organiser, Jo Efoti, for putting on a great event that certainly did provide the opportunity for anyone attending to start a conversation about having a chat and enjoy a cuppa and either brekky or lunch.

When constituents have the added challenge of physical distance separating them from services and loved ones, costs such as for petrol, repairs, groceries, or other daily expenses are increased, exacerbating the pressures of inﬂation. I’ve been speaking-up about this in parliament, because time and again urban-based Labor members of parliament do not comprehend the needs of people outside of the cities. The difficulty for me in listening to people from wealthier Organisation Support Programs are now open to providers of grassroots sport to support the continued growth of women’s and girls’ sport and recreation.

Most Australians in the Parkes electorate can’t just tick a box which offsets their carbon emissions; for them the choice is whether to keep the hot water on over winter, or turn the air conditioner on in summer. For many Australians, the cost of cutting emissions doesn’t just chip-away luxuries; it eats into necessities. from across the Dubbo electorate to apply.

Cadillac takes out car club award

A STUNNING cherry-red 1960 Cadillac Coupe de Ville took out the Narromine Car Club’s “pick of the day” award at the monthly Cars and Coffee on October 29. The beautifully restored 63-year-old classic car was a recent purchase for Mark and Jackie Forgione, who brought it up from Melbourne. The couple took home one of the Narromine Car Club’s unique trophies made by fellow club member and local barbed wire artisan, Greg “Macca” McIntyre, in a similar shade of red. The Caddy was one of 34 cars, seven motorcycles and a tractor on show in Burraway Street, with many proud owners happy to chat about their prized historic, vintage and or classic vehicles.

Amy’s dream job at the zoo By SHARON BONTHUYS GETTING to work with animals and people every day is an incredible job, says Dubbo zookeeper Amy Sturrock. Ms Sturrock, 24, works with Asian wetland animals including Asian small clawed otters and the greater one-horned rhino at the Taronga Western Plains Zoo. “I love the zoo animals, which are always so personable, cheeky and unpredictable,” she said. “I also really like the guest side of things, being able to share the conservation message, talk to guests and share the stories about the animals and generate interest from the public in these species.” If you haven’t thought about rhino being a wetland species, Ms Sturrock says the greater one-horned rhino do actually like the water. “We have three species of rhino here at the zoo. Two of them are African species and they are more mud-loving, but the Indian or greater onehorned rhino do love the water,” she said. Another surprising fact is that otters are found in many parts of the world. The ones Ms Sturrock works

There are North American river otters that look just like ours but are a little bit bigger. Asian small clawed otters are the smaller species,” she said. Ms Sturrock found her way into her dream role through the

Taronga Western Plains Zoo’s innovative Youth At The Zoo (YATZ) volunteering program. YATZ enables teens aged between 13 and 18 years to learn how the zoo operates, develop skills for the future, and cele-

brate animals and conservation. After volunteering with YATZ, Ms Sturrock completed a Certificate III in Captive Animals through internal training pathways at the zoo. Being able to study right here in Dubbo meant that Ms Sturrock didn’t have to leave home to gain her qualification. She then moved into a casual role before transitioning to full time zookeeping about three years ago. A typical day for Zookeeper Amy involves cleaning, feeding and animal training. “A big part of my day is all the cleaning and feeding of the animals, making sure they’re well fed and [cleaning] the exhibits and paddocks each day,” she said. Training is also very important, Ms Sturrock said. “With a 2000-kilo rhino, we can’t exactly hold them down [to administer] medication, so we do training with them. If they need something or any extra healthcare, we can do it safely through a fence.” Ms Sturrock encourages anyone considering a career in zookeeping to “100 per cent go for it. “It’s such a rewarding career, defi nitely one I’ve enjoyed pursuing.”

Snake sightings on the rise NARROMINE locals were left astonished and slightly alarmed when a snake was spotted slithering up a tree at Noel Powell Oval on October 24. The unexpected sighting has sparked curiosity and concern among residents, prompting wildlife experts to offer reassurance and advice. A group of children training at the popular sports oval made the discovery, which brought their training to an abrupt halt, said Andrew Pearce from Tactical Aid, a local supplier of fi rst aid, trauma supplies and fi re protection services. “The snake slithered up the tree and perched itself about two meters above the ground, seemingly undisturbed by the activity [on the oval below],” he said. The experts believe the snake to be an eastern brown snake, a species notorious for its potent venom. Brown snakes, classified as one of Australia’s deadliest venomous reptiles, are commonly found in rural and urban areas and their presence in trees is not uncommon. There have been multiple reports of snakes in the Narromine and Dubbo regions. The incident serves as a reminder for locals to remain vigilant and cautious when encountering snakes, especially during the

summer season when they are more active. If anyone comes face to face with a snake it is important to stay as still as possible, as uncomfortable as that may be. “The snake will soon move on its way. They can strike far quicker than we can move, and unfortunately, most snake bites occur when people try to kill them,” Mr Pearce said. “[This] snake was left to hang out in the tree,” Mr Pearce added, reminding locals that snakes are protected in NSW. Residents are urged to report any snake sightings to local authorities, who can provide guidance on appropriate actions to take. Mr Pearce urges residents to be mindful of their surroundings, ensuring that yards and outdoor areas are kept tidy and free from potential snake hiding spots, such as piles of debris or overgrown vegetation. In the unlikely event that someone is bitten by a snake, Mr Pearce said they should remove themself from danger and stay as still as possible, contact 000, apply a compression bandage and totally immobilise the limb. It is important to apply immediate and effective ﬁ rst aid. Mr Pearce also has some great advice for local residents: “Get yourself enrolled in a ﬁ rst aid course this summer.”

Able Services’ lads make great things By SHARON BONTHUYS IF you’ve passed the colourful window displays at Mudyigalang Many Hands Craft Group in Narromine recently, you may have seen the craft work on display by the talented young people from Able Services. The team has been busy making items for the festive season such as chopping boards, cheeseboards, Christmas trees and Santas which they now have available to sell, said acting coordinator, David Short. “The boys have always wanted to sell things they’ve made and we’re grateful to Mudyigalang for their support in allowing us to put those things in their windows,” Mr Short said. Able Services provides sup-

port to and activities for National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) participants across central west NSW. Founded by Jarrod Wheelhouse who is currently on leave, Able Services is currently managed by Mr Short and his partner, Veronica Barber-Short. Operating from a workshop in Second Avenue, Narromine, the participants learn valuable woodcraft and other skills at Able Services. Among other things, they have learned how to make tealight candle holders as well as resin boards, one of the most popular resin-art crafts. Able Services not only provides valuable life skills for its participants, but also much needed social connectivity which is very important for them, Mr Short said.

Alleged student assaults at Narromine High

Joshua Bird, Josh Kearns and Kolby Hancock are just some of the Able Services’ participants making beautiful things at the workshop. “I like to make things. My favourite is a chopping board or a resin board,” said Mr Bird, who travels from Dubbo to attend. Other participants Josh Kearns from Dubbo and Kolby Hancock from Warren like to make “a bit of everything,” they said. “ I a l s o l i ke [m a k i n g ] r e d g u m c lo ck s ,” M r H a n c o ck s a id . Ms Barber-Short said people can order items which the team will then make. “We’re going to have a market stall at the Venetian Carnival next month,” Mr Short said. All money from the sale of

Joint winners of 2023 Aboriginal art prize

By SHARON BONTHUYS THE NSW Department of Education has issued a statement in response to reports that three alleged assaults occurred at Narromine High School after term four started last month. Multiple students were reported to have witnessed the incidents which allegedly took place on school grounds in the ﬁ rst and second weeks of the new term. The Narromine Star has been told that male students allegedly assaulted female students in these incidents, with at least one female student being taken to hospital. The department is unable to disclose information about the incidents or who was involved. A spokesperson for the department said: “Narromine High School took immediate and strong disciplinary action following these incidents. We are concerned about any acts of violence. “These incidents are not typical to the school or its students. “The school is investigating the circumstances surrounding these incidents and remains dedicated to providing a safe learning environment,” the spokesperson said. “Our schools do not tolerate any violent or inappropriate behaviour, with the safety and wellbeing of students and teachers always our number one priority.” The department did not provide statistics about other alleged assaults at the school for this school year and in 2022 in response to our request, and referred us to the NSW Education’s data hub website, which provides 300 dataset resources and publications currently available about key education data. The department has indicated it is working more broadly across NSW with teachers, principals and school staff to “make schools even safer.” To achieve this, the department says a diverse range of strategies and initiatives are in place including: f Reviewing the Student Behaviour Policy so that teachers have more tools to help manage student behaviour f Introducing a ban on mobile phones in Term 4 this year f Recruiting 250 more school counsellors over the next 4 years f Delivery Support and Team Around a School, including Behaviour Specialists, Learning and Wellbeing Coordinators, Advisors and Officers, Networked Specialist Facilitators and Assistant Principals Learning and Support. The Narromine Star reached out to the NSW Teachers Federation for comment about violence in regional high schools, but did not receive a response.

PHOTO: SUPPLIED. TWO exquisite paintings have tied for fi rst place in the 2023 CatholicCare Wilcannia-Forbes Aboriginal Art Competition. Artists Raymond Thorpe of Forbes and Pamela Bugmy of Dubbo have both been named winners and will each receive the $2000 fi rst prize. Mr Thorpe’s painting, Trackers, and Ms Bugmy’s painting, God’s Country, were two of 14 stunning entries this year. The competition was judged by Bishop Columba MacbethGreen, CatholicCare Wilcannia-Forbes Chief Executive Officer, Anne-Marie Mioche, and Red Bend Catholic College visual arts teacher, Tracie Axton. In the intricate God’s Country, Ms Bugmy depicted her hometown, Wilcannia. Mr Thorpe’s Trackers is an impressive artwork of more than one square metre in area.

“The winners bring you out to another level, a spiritual level. They draw the viewer into both of those paintings, and that’s one of the things I think is really, really powerful that I’m not just an objective viewer, I get drawn into the actual artwork,” Bishop Macbeth-Green said. The judges were impressed by the depth of talent displayed in the competition. “The entries were so strong that we had to have two ﬁ rst place winners this year, and I think apart from the beauty of the actual paintings, the symbolism in both of those was really powerful,” Ms Mioche said. “One is called God’s Country, and the symbolism, particularly the link between Aboriginal spirituality and Christianity in that painting is just amazing. “Trackers is the six seasons and a father and son tracking

during those six seasons, so that’s really beautiful as well. It teaches us something about Aboriginal culture.” Ms Axton remarked on the use of colour and said she enjoyed the symbolism of the artwork. “I can understand it’s trackers, because I can actually follow the journey that they’ve created in Trackers,” she said. Second prize of $1500 was won by Carmen Hutchison of Cobar with Swim (Bambinya). Third prize of $500 was won by Mark Curry of Wilcannia with Old Man Roo. The judges awarded a special junior prize of $250 to Hannah Thorpe of Forbes for her painting, Seasons. The 14 entries came from a diverse range of locations across the Catholic Diocese of WilcanniaForbes, which spans 52 per cent of NSW.

Community kitchen connects locals

Some of the meals provided at the community kitchen.

Welcome to the community kitchen.

This delicious meal was served at the community cafe on October 20.

Another delicious meal at the community kitchen.

Rose Maunder. By SHARON BONTHUYS JUST how important social connectivity is in our lives became glaringly apparent during the pandemic. The suffering inﬂ icted by pandemic restrictions and border closures separating loved ones will stay in our memories for a long time. In Narromine, the Generocity Church has done something to help restore connection between community members, particularly those living alone or otherwise isolated. About three months ago it opened a fortnightly “community kitchen” in its Dandaloo Street premises and invited the community in for a low cost, home cooked meal served with side dishes of friendship and fellowship. Anyone can attend the early evening community kitchen, including people who are not members of the

church. It runs from 6-8.30pm. For church member Rose Maunder, providing the community kitchen is an important part of helping maintain personal connection with others and builds on her faith. “It’s not all about the food, but our time has a deﬁnite but gentle Christian perspective. We’d like to offer hope and friendship over a meal,” she said. The community kitchen isn’t a new concept. It involves planning, preparing and sharing affordable meals with others in a comfortable, welcoming, non-judgemental space. A similar service had previously operated in Narromine through the Seventh Day Adventist (SDA) Church. The Generocity Church has taken this concept on board and run with it, turning its cosy interior Third Space cafe into the perfect place for locals to connect

with each other while sharing a meal and conversation. “This is an open space where people feel comfortable with each other,” said church leader David Taylor. Numbers vary each time the community kitchen is held, with attendance ranging from between 10 and 20 people per night. Quantity is not important. The quality of the time spent together is what is really important, Mr Taylor said. There is no set menu at the community kitchen, and each Friday fortnight there will be something different. With the help of volunteers, Mrs Maunder plans and prepares a three-course meal. When the Narromine Star visited the community kitchen, we enjoyed chicken noodle soup followed by apricot chicken and vegetables with rice, and ﬁnished with an ice cream and custard dessert. Absolutely delicious!

along to the community kitchen evenings, remembering the days when he used to attend the previous kitchen run by the SDA church. “I started coming just before the Dolly Festival. It’s just two blocks from home and it’s a great place to meet others. “I like the friendship and fellowship and you don’t have to be in the church to come here,” Mr Butcher said. For Rose Maunder and the Generocity Church members who make the community kitchen possible, showing friendship and fellowship to others brings many rewards. “There’s nothing better than to give people hope,” Mrs Maunder said. The next community kitchen will take place this Friday night. If you’d like to attend, contact the Narromine Generocity Church to let them know you’ll be coming along.

It’s important to know that the community kitchen meals are not free. Attendees make a small donation to the church for their meal, at a minimum $2.00. Larger donations are welcome, but not mandatory. Taking plates or bowls up to the counter after eating is also appreciated by those working tirelessly in the kitchen. “I love to serve and help people. Here we show we care for people and that’s how we show we love God,” Mrs Maunder said. “My focus is people coming together for the purpose of sharing time, because there are many vulnerable and lonely people in our community,” She said. “We would love people to come along and bring their friends.” This is echoed by church member Ron Battishall. “It’s not just about feeding people. It’s also about friendship and fellowship.” John Butcher enjoys coming

CWR’s toy run to benefit Peter steps down local kids doing it tough

The toy run at Wellington in 2022.

By SHARON BONTHUYS THE very community-minded Central West Riders (CWR) will conduct another charity “toy run” ride later this month, this one supporting Narromine families who have experienced tragedy and loss. Last year the social motorbike club’s toy run supported the Wellington community, said club spokesperson Ruth McAnally. The Wellington Police Citizens Youth Club (PCYC) received the donated toys for distribution to local children doing it tough. “Last year was very successful. I can’t recall how many presents we had but we also raised just under $900 in a raffle which also went to the PCYC,” she said. This year’s toy run will deliver donated toys and funds raised via the CWR raffle to the Narromine Community Skills Project Inc, which provides outreach and program support to children and families in local communities. Ms McAnally said the organisation’s name and reputation is well known locally. “We know the good [they are] doing in the community out there. It was a natural progression [for CWR] to support them.” The Central West Riders will meet up with Narromine Car Club members in their classic vehicles at the Courthouse Hotel on November 25, and lead a “parade lap” ending up at the Narromine Aerodrome Tourist Park. There, attendees can enjoy the display of bikes and vehicles and enjoy a barbecue lunch for a gold coin donation, courtesy of the Nar-

romine Christian School. While everyone is welcome at the barbecue, it’s important to know that no toys will be distributed to anyone at that event. This will come later, just before Christmas, when Sharon Milne and Ann-Louise Stonestreet from Narromine Community Skills finish gathering information from churches, schools and service providers about local families really doing it tough. The toys will then be personally distributed by the Narromine Community Skills team to children identiﬁed through that process. The ladies are thrilled that their organisation has been chosen by the CWR for support this year, and know the donated toys will put a smile on the face of children who have had a very difficult year. “Devastating things have happened to local families,” Ms Milne said. “We’ve had several house ﬁ res locally this year, and families where children have lost a parent or a parent has been sick,” Ms Stonestreet said. “These are the children who will receive the toys donated from the toy run.” The proceeds of the CWR raffle will also help Narromine Community Skills continue to provide ongoing outreach and support to local families. The president of Narromine Car Club, Kym Edmunds, said the club will not only participate in the parade lap and drive down to the aerodrome tourist park, but will also donate $500 worth of toys to the cause. “Anything local to sup-

port the community, we want to be involved with that,” she said. Ms McAnally said that locals who would like to donate toys can do so on the day out at the aerodrome tourist park, or can arrange to do so ahead of time by contacting Ms Milne or Ms Stonestreet at Narromine Community Skills Project. Listers Machinery Pty Ltd in Narromine and CatholicCare in Dubbo (behind the Village Bakery) are also drop off points for toy donations ahead of the event, she said. If you would like to donate toys to the toy run, this is what you need to know: f Toys need to be new and not gift-wrapped f Toys must be safe f Toys must be suitable for 0-12 years’ age group. “If people want to purchase things for the older kids, perhaps things like gift vouchers [are recommended],” Ms McAnally said. Ms Stonestreet said that if teachers from local schools would like to include their classes in this special community support project as a character-building exercise, she can come and talk to the classes and collect donated toys prior to the toy ride taking place. “[The toy run] is going to be a fun and very effective way to sponsor our beautiful community and families, especially families who have experienced tragedy and loss. “A huge thank you to Central West Riders, Narromine Car Club and the Narromine Christian School [for making this possible],” Ms Stonestreet said.

Peter Kierath OAM with museum curator Mike Nelmes at the Narromine Aviation Museum. PHOTO: NARROMINE STAR. By SHARON BONTHUYS PETER Kierath OAM has signalled his intention to step down from the role of Chair at the Narromine Aviation Museum when the museum committee holds its annual general meeting (AGM) on November 7. Mr Kierath, 84, has been involved with the museum’s committee since 1997 and served at various times as Chair, including the last several years. During his time with the committee, Mr Kierath’s proudest achievements have included overseeing the extension to the museum in 2016, and the recently opened 40-metre long memorial wall honouring the graduates of the No. 5 Elementary Flying Training School. Both of those developments at the Narromine Aviation Museum were opened by Retired Chief of the Defence Force, Air Chief Marshal Sir Angus Houston AK AFC. Mr Kierath said Sir Angus was suitably impressed by the development of the museum since his last visit seven years ago. “He said [during his visit last month], ‘I can’t believe that you’ve done so much’,” Mr Kierath said. Although he is stepping down from his role as Chair, Mr Kierath is looking forward to continuing his relationship with the

museum as a general volunteer. “There are few things that need to be done around the museum,” he said. He hopes his successor as Chair will be as passionate about the museum and its future as he has been. He also hopes the membership of the museum will grow over time as locals and those from afar see the value in celebrating the history of local wartime aviation. Museum curator Mike Nelmes reflected on his twenty-year relationship with Mr Kierath and said that the museum has greatly benefited from Mr Kierath’s proactive involvement over the years. “I thank Peter for his contribution, and I look forward to working with the new Chair,” Mr Nelmes said. Thank you, Peter, and all the best!

Correction - Tiger Moths

AT the opening of the memorial wall at the Narromine Aviation Museum on October 14, the Luskintyre Airﬁeld and Museum supplied the vintage Tiger Moth planes and pilots for the ﬂyovers on the day. The fuel for these planes was funded by the Fighter Squadrons Branch of the RAAF Association. Our story suggested the latter provided both – apologies. We’re also sorry for the typos in Mr Kierath’s name that appeared in our story. :)

Classroom News Valuing education - for ourselves and others By LOUISE BROWN, ST AUGUSTINE’S SCHOOL LIFE Charity Focus was established in 2015 jointly by Moses Gorie in Budaka, Uganda, and the Carter Family of Nyngan. Currently they are together providing quality education to over 1000 children, who as a whole have received the highest academic results across the whole Budaka region in Uganda. In 2017, St Augustine’s began sponsoring Derrick and Janet through the program. Money is raised through special days held throughout the year, and by collecting and cashing in our recyclable items. Our donations provide them with an education and boarding in Uganda. The students have come to know both Janet and Derrick through ‘old-fashioned’ letter writing. They look forward to hearing news from Uganda, and equally enjoy writing to them. Stage 1 students have recently written letters after receiving one from Janet. It is a marvellous program from which our students beneﬁt, as much as Derrick and Janet.

RACING NG ORT REPORT By COLIN HODGES

By COLIN HODGES POPULAR jockey Jake Pracey-Holmes threw his goggles to cheering fans when returning to the yard on Miss Twenty Two, the third leg of his winning treble on Saturday, October 28 at Mudgee. In great form this season, Pracey-Holmes had Miss Twenty Two nicely positioned

Jake Pracey-Holmes secures a treble at Mudgee before joining the leaders turning for home in the 1600 metres Happy 50th Raymond Pitt Benchmark 50 Handicap. After a stirring battle down the long Mudgee straight, the Dar Lunn, Dubbo-trained Miss Twenty Two ($2.30 favourite) prevailed by a long head from Golden Eclipse (Shayleigh Ingelse, $5) and Knowitall Jack (Mathew Cahill, $3.50). Winner of nine races from 48 starts, Miss Twenty Two is owned by Guy Mitchell from Binnaway and Rob Pratten from Dubbo. Bathurst trainer Gayna Williams who won with Fletchlo

at her home track the previous day, won the 1400 metres Big Smoke Bowlers Benchmark 50 Handicap at Mudgee with Boongarra Girl. A daring front running ride by Pracey-Holmes saw Boongarra Girl establishing an early four lengths lead before holding on to win by a length from Mista Sock (Ken Dunbar, $6) and Dynastic (Zoe Hunt, $7). The best backed runner at the meeting was Gulf Of Gabes with the odds tumbling from $13 to $4 before the 1400 metres Pink Up Mudgee Maiden Plate. Jake Pracey-Holmes sent

Gulf Of Gabes to the early lead and the Nikki Pollock, Scone trained four year old gelding having the second start in a race defied every challenge in the straight to win by a half-length from Platinum Asset (Darryl McLellan, $2.80 fav.) and Iron Fist (Nyssa Burrells, $15). Placed the previous starts at Mudgee and Forbes, the Roy McCabe, Bathurst-trained Virtual Legend broke through to win the 1100 metres McGrath Foundation Maiden Plate for owner Peter Knight. Breaking clear before the home turn, Virtual Legend

(Ashleigh Stanley, $1.60 favourite) was a comfortable winner from More Voltage (Darryl McLellan, $2.20) and Sly Witness (James Rogers, $4).

Recording the third winner of her career, apprentice jockey Zoe Hunt brought the Clint Lundholm, Dubbo trained Majestic Wings ($2.70 equal fav.) from last to win the 1100 metres Breast Feeding Cancer Awareness Benchmark 50 Handicap from the leader Fill A Promise (Jake Pracey-Holmes, $3.20) and Rupicasso (James Rogers, $2.70 equal fav.).

Gold and silver for Michelle Outback Dragons! and GERRIES GOLF NOTES

“Butch” win at Gerries By NORM LEWIS LAST Saturday, some 13 golfers turned out for our weekly Gerries Golf Competition. Numbers were down slightly on previous years due to a clash with the Annual Narromine Jets Golf Day. In the Ladies Division, there was a ﬁeld of eight players with the winner Michelle Ashdown with a great score of 30 points. Second place went to Bev Woods on 26 points, with the NAGA prize for the Ladies going to Marj Kelly on 13. Vicki Gainsford took home the jackpot of eight golf balls for victory in the Nearest-thePin Competition. There were only ﬁve men in attendance for their event, with the winner being John Butcher with a score of 23 points. Good to see “Butch” back on the course again and winning. Runner-up was the very consistent Chris Harding with a score of 20 points, while Vince Ferrari took out the Men’s NAGA prize on 14 points. Next Saturday, the weekly comp will hit off with the Ladies on the back nine, and the men on the front nine. Hope to see you all there!

Little Athletics reps head to Orange By RENEE HORSTMAN NARROMINE Little Athletics is heading to the Central Tablelands this weekend for the Son Carnival, a perfect opportunity for the young track and ﬁeld sports to showcase their talents and compete against peers from other areas. At our most recent local meet last Thursday, cloudy skies and cool weather didn’t deter our enthusiasm. All participants had a wonderful time engaging in the hurdles, high jump, and running events. The evening was truly fantastic. Narromine Little Athletics is a fantastic community event that has

been bringing families and children of all ages together for years. It’s a place where kids can discover their love for sports and physical activity, and it provides a supportive environment for their growth and development. Whether your child is a budding athlete or simply looking for some fun and exercise, Narromine Little Athletics offers a range of activities and competitions suitable for all skill levels. The sense of camaraderie and community spirit at this event is truly heartwarming, as parents, coaches, and fellow participants come together to encourage and cel-

ebrate the achievements of these young athletes. For those who haven’t registered yet, it’s not too late to join in on the fun. Narromine Little Athletics welcomes new participants with open arms. The entire community is rallying behind those heading off to Orange, sending their best wishes and support. We hope to see our Narromine representatives shine and bring back some well deserved accolades. Little Athletics is not only about competition but also about building character, fostering friendships, and creating lasting memories for these children.
