Kinder faces closure

A kinder for three to four-year-olds y running g in Beechworth for the last 26 years y mayy close BEECHWORTH’S largest kindergarten running from Mayday Hill for the last 26 years stands to be ousted at the end of next year if a resolution cannot be found for the service to remain.

A revamp of leasing renewal by Indigo Shire Council gained approval at last week’s council meeting to seek Expressions of Interest (EOI) for a single tenant to offer childcare services,

Kinder committee executive team president Averil Halleur said the EOI required a successful childcare service to operate both kinder and childcare services.

She said the kinder for three to four-year-olds had been unaware the EOI was on council’s meeting agenda, believing it had been approved.

But word quickly spread, which saw the committee and parents filling the gallery at the meeting.

“We raised a number of questions read out collectively with no answers and an indication council would come back to us, and yet they still voted and approved the proposal,” Ms Halleur said.

Kinder committee member Liana Beatson said consultation had been lacking by council with the EOI process with a single tenancy.

Savage winds strike North East to start September

Peak gusts of 93km/h were recorded at Rutherglen’s Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) station at 5:05am Monday morning.

Multiple callouts for tress down blocking access to properties, roads or property damage was reported across the shire.

Peak gusts of 98km/h were recorded at the BOM’s Wangaratta’s Airport weather station at 4:52am Monday, the highest recorded in Wangaratta for the month of September in 17 years and the strongest since 104km/h was recorded on January 2 this year.

The devastating winds saw some 4100 homes in the Wangaratta region without power for around 12 hours.

BOM forecasts predict winds to return to the region on Friday with gusts of up to 50km/h predicted along with showers in the evening, into Saturday morning.

Beechworth SES sent a post on the Beechworth Community Noticeboard on Facebook, urging people to remain cautious around trees.

Shire’s youth discover artistic talents

By CORAL COOKSLEY YOUNG creatives in Indigo Shire and the region showcased their artistic talents with some scoring awards at the Friends of the Burke Museum event held at the Beechworth Town Hall on Friday.

The joint initiative in its second year by Melbourne-based philanthropic organisation Albert and Barbara Tucker Foundation and Friends of the Burke Museum (FOB) drew 12 entrants.

FOB committee member Jennifer Perrin said young people took up the challenge of this year’s theme “Discovery” relating to their own experiences through a variety of mediums.

Wodonga’s Alannah Young, who grew up in Yackandandah, clinched a win with her paintings representing her personal journey.

“We don’t feel like we have had a say and feel really disappointed at that lack of transparency,” she said.

Also the mother of two children attending the kinder where both she and her mother had attended, said as an educator, she considered sessional kinder is valuable.

“We have a fantastic program, our staff are amazing and with the number of enrolments we has indicated is sessional kindergarten is favourable yet council have just made this decision not taking that into account,” she said.

Ms Halleur said options had been explored with Beechworth Community Early Years Learning Centre (BCEYLC) that offered both childcare and kinder service for three to four-year-olds, but had been insufficient common ground.

“Our families value a sessional program as it is what they want for their children and their school readiness preparation,” she said.

Parent Lara Lynch said three fabulous services are offered within the community.

“We are so lucky to have the choice to pick a service that aligns with our needs and values of our families, and they are all different,” she said.

Ms Lynch said the kinder is the largest early years provider within Beechworth with strong level of community support.

Beechworth’s (BCEYLC) president Lauren Malins said the door is open with council.

“We all want to work together to find a solution,” she said.

Mayor Sophie Price said the Expression of Interest is a transparent process open to the entire kinder and child care sector or consortium with experience and certification.

“We want to ensure this process delivers the best possible child care and kinder services for local families and the community for years to come,” she said.

Posh Plonk’s week of highs and lows

By CHLOE JAENICKE CHILTERN restaurant, Posh Plonk, experienced a series of ups and downs during August, with their kitchen setting fire and restaurant winning a Diners’ Choice award all in one week.

At around 12pm on Friday, August 16, they experienced a kitchen fire which resulted in their restaurant being closed for six days.

The fire started when a lid fell off a boiling pot, hitting the gas pipes at the back of stove, causing gas to spill out, setting fire to a portion of the kitchen.

The fire lasted around two minutes and caused significant damage to the stove and the nearby electronics and wires, but luckily did not cause any structural damage.

Posh Plonk owner, Michael Moore, said emergency services arrived at the scene within minutes to get it under control.

“We’re two doors down from the fire station and right next door to the police station in town so all the emergency services were here within minutes,” he said.

“There were also some volunteer people that got buzzers on their pagers and were here within minutes to come help out.”

Mr Moore said they worked tirelessly to clean up the damage and prepare the restaurant to open as soon as possible.

“We had to spend all of Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday just cleaning everything off the wall, there was soot everywhere,” he said.

“Essentially the whole kitchen had to be taken apart and rebuilt again to make sure everything had been cleaned and ready to go.

“Then we had to start preparing all of our food over the course of the following week and by Thursday and

Friday we started serving coffees and things again, but we had our full menu on by the Saturday the following week after the fire.”

Mr Moore said they were able to open so quickly thanks to the overwhelming support of Chiltern locals.

“We were assisted by the post office, they lent us their van so we could fill an esky with our high danger items like our milk and dairy and all our meat and things like that,” he said.

“We took that down to the local butcher shop, who was able to store all of that in their cool room while we had no power at the venue.

“After we posted about us being shut due to the fire, it was just the absolute outpour of people asking how they could help.”

During the week of exhausting clean up, Mr Moore said they finally had some good news when they received the Diners’ Choice: Best Overall Restaurants in Victoria Award

SET ABLAZE: It took the team at Posh Plonk around a week to fully open the restaurant back up after the fire. on Open Table.

“It was over that period we started opening again and we got that good news; it was a nice little motivation to get us back into things,” he said.

Mr Moore said they were

over the moon to receive the award after pouring their heart into the restaurant over the past year and that he would like to extent his gratitude to the Posh Plonk staff and customers.

“The biggest thing is to

thank the staff that we’ve got as part of the team, they put in everything,” he said.

“We’d also like to thank the people who come in and leave reviews, it’s the glowing reviews that contributed to the award.”

Drag’d Out Beechworth ramps up for another dazzling event

By CORAL COOKSLEY THIS year’s Drag’d Out Beechworth Party in Pride festival is shaping up to be another gloss, glam and dazzle event with a fresh inclusive theme to draw huge crowds.

With a great line of performers, including those who trip the global stage, the festival’s creative director Andrew Madden said world class production is inclusive, safe, friendly and fun, and for all ages.

The queer, inclusive three-day festival of the arts celebrates everyone within the LGBTQIA+ community and their allies while with its diversity brings people together from all walks of life.

Mr Madden said the festival’s new look this year is inspired by the inclusive flag colour palette with some new performers coming to town being some of biggest known headliners.

“We’ve reinvented the festival again as we do every year and have some of the biggest headline acts we have ever had,” he said.

Among them includes “Fountain Lakes in Lockdown” – an immersive dining experience held at the Memorial Hall with vibrant performances hosted by performer Art Simone and ‘Kath and Kim Fountain Lakes in Lockdown’ crew.

“DJ Kitty Glitter, an international superstar on the DJ circuit will perform having recently returned from Eu-

rope,” Mr Madden said.

“The festival aims to lift spirits and provide a sense of norm for the queer community helping those who may feel anxious or excluded.”

Mr Madden said the festival will again include a rainbow ball for young people which was based on last year’s success rated by participants safe, inclusive, and fun.

“There are 62 volunteers across the event with eight committee members working tirelessly year-round to make it all work,” he said While some events are free a new payment feature with after pay has been added to the website for ticketed events such as the headline ‘Fountain Lakes

As not-for-profit event with funds raised to cover the running costs, Mr Madden an annual donation is made to volunteer-led charity LINE in Wangaratta to support their work.

The event also received up to $10,000 of State Government funding as part of its Regional Activation Program of Victoria’s Pride throughout November.

With something for everyone, the family friendly festival are story time, chalk drawing and a Friday night disco with free admission young people under 16 years old.

“Whether you’re queer or not, just be whoever you want to be, come along and have fun and put a smile on

Heritage listing leads to precinct partnership team up TWO Beechworth community organisations and a major social enterprise are collaborating to ensure the community is actively engaged in the development and activation of plans for Beechworth’s colonial-era centre.

Beechworth History and Heritage, Beechworth Inc, Old Beechworth Gaol and the Australian Centre for Rural Entrepreneurship (ACRE) have formed Beechworth Historic Precinct Partnership, aiming to work with the community, Federal Government and Indigo Shire Council to shape priorities for the precinct following its National Heritage listing in August.

Beechworth History and Heritage chair Jamie Kronborg said each of the partnership members, like many Beechworth residents, had a “keen, natural interest in the future of the place at the heart of our community”.

“The partnership’s aim is to bring together our community’s and partner organisations’ voices for the planning and activation of this newly-listed national heritage place,” Jamie said.

“The listing signals to Beechworth and the wider world the cultural value of the fine standard of colonial administrative buildings, old gaol, town hall and what they represent.

“It also presents a rare opportunity for the community to realise the social, economic and cultural benefits of the listing.

“For this to happen all voices have to be at the table to help plan the next steps, and engage-

ACRE and Old Beechworth Gaol chief executive Matt Pfahlert said the organisations he leads were excited to be cofounders of the Beechworth Historic Precinct Partnership.

“With Beechworth History and Heritage and Beechworth Inc, we’ll be working collaboratively with local groups to bring the precinct to life for generations to come,” Matt said.

“We believe the precinct is a great canvas for cultural storytelling and interpretation that can foster social inclusion and a place we can all be proud of. “

Beechworth Inc chair Katrina Witherow said the community’s business advocacy organisation was honoured to collaborate with Beechworth History and Heritage, Old Beechworth Gaol and ACRE to form the Beechworth Historic Precinct Partnership.

“The National Heritage listing provides us with an opportunity for our organisations to represent our community, ensure custody and management of the precinct with Indigo Shire Council in ways that meet our community’s expectations, and work as key participants in future planning for these sig-

nificant historic assets,” Katrina said.

“We aim to advocate for our community in the development and operation of management plans for the precinct consistent with National Heritage management principles and our organisations’ shared aspirations and visions for the future of our businesses and the wider Beechworth community.

“Our collaboration will build on our community’s heritage and culture that provides the rich history we share today.

“This is a unique opportunity and we look forward to the work ahead and a positive future together.”

Farewell and thanks for outgoing NESAY CEO AS Leah Waring concludes her time as chief executive officer of NESAY, the organisation reflects on the significant achievements and lasting impact she has made during her time at the helm.

Her leadership has not only transformed NESAY but also left an everlasting mark on the broader community.

Leah’s proud parents were in attendance at her farewell at NESAY and were delighted to hear of her achievements and the respect in which she is held at NESAY. Under Leah’s guidance, NESAY has earned recognition as a leader in community services, winning multiple business awards that underscore NESAY’s commitment to the young people in which they serve.

One of the standout achievements during her tenure was the creation of the Benalla Community Services Hub, an ambitious project that brought together over 13 organisations under one roof to better serve the community.

This initiative fostered greater collaboration among service providers and improved access to support for those in need.

In 2019, Leah was honoured with the prestigious Telstra Business Women of the Year – Victorian for Purpose and Social Enterprise award, a testament to her outstanding leadership and dedication to the sector.

This accolade reflects her tireless efforts to drive positive change and champion the needs of vulnerable communities.

Leah was the driver for the establishment of the Friends of NESAY program, this innovative initiative has provided the local business community with opportunities to support young people in meaningful ways, creating lasting connections between NESAY and the businesses that believe in its mission.

As Leah steps down from her role, NESAY is pleased to announce that Claire Anderson, NESAY’s transitional services manager, will be stepping up as interim chief executive officer.

Claire brings with her a wealth of experience and a deep commitment to the organisation’s mission, ‘supporting young people and their families in our community to achieve their goals and aspirations’.

Alison Maclean, president of NESAY’s Board of Governance expressed pride in the organisation’s accomplishments and confidence in its future.

“It has been a privilege to have Leah lead NESAY and work alongside such a dedicated team,” she said.

“We are incredibly proud of what Leah has achieved during her time as CEO and know that the organisation will continue to thrive under Claire’s leadership.”

PROUD PARENTS: Proud parents Sue Black and John Black celebrated Leah Waring’s achievements during her time at NESAY. Many of the programs and initiatives that Leah helped get off the ground are still going strong today, including the Fair Feed program which stems across Benalla, Wangaratta and Myrtleford, community pantries ‘Flo’ and ‘Esme,’ and the Lighten the Load community laundry initiative, among others.

These programs continue to provide vital support to those in need and embody the values that NESAY stands for.

For those interested in learning more about NESAY’s programs or want to become a Friend of NESAY, you will find the full details on their website; nesay.com.au.

As NESAY farewell Leah from her role at NESAY, her legacy at NESAY is one of visionary leadership, collaboration, and a steadfast commitment to serving others.

The impact of her work will be felt for years to come.

Preserving the greater glider

By CORAL COOKSLEY A PRESENTATION about the world’s biggest gliding mammal found in Stanley captured the interest of around 40 people including some children last Friday night.

A collaborative event to learn about southern greater gliders native to Australia followed with a chance to spot the creatures in the local forest.

A Mid Ovens Landcare Consortium facilitator - Stanley’s Jim Blackney - delivered a presentation on ecology and the species with the event held jointly with Stanley Landcare at the village’s Safer Neighbourhood House.

Mr Blackney said the glider as large as a cat has a tail around 50 to 60cm in length.

“They are very impressive when you see them glide,” he said.

“The gliders are found in eastern Australia along the Great Dividing Range.

“In our local area they are found mainly in Blue Gum, and Narrow-leaf peppermint gum trees.

“I have been researching quite a few and we have a population on the Stanley Plateau.”

Mr Blackney said the endangered animal has suffered population declines through habitat loss, particularly in southern Queensland.

“The animals are under threat in the wild because of logging, fires and climate change,” he said.

With the gliders reliant on forests and hollow-bearing trees for shelter and nesting, the researcher said hollows are vital for them.

“Anything that impacts tree hollows is bad news,” Mr Blackney said.

“All different plants and animals have a role to play in ecology and when a species gets into trouble it affects the ecological balance.

“Australia has one of the worst mammal extinction rates in the world and there’s a lot of work to be done by state and federal governments.”

Mr Blackney said the gliders are hard to find being nocturnal and people do not know about the mammal.

He said the evening provided community education for people to gain a greater awareness of the gliders to help with better conservation.

Stanley Landcare secretary Tony McDonald said three had been spotted high up in the trees in the forest in vicinity of the Yackandandah Gate Road when on the field excursion following the presentation.

ON THE LOOKOUT: Stanley’s Jim Blackney and a Mid Ovens Landcare Consortium facilitator is researching southern greater gliders in the Indigo area.

Mr Blackney said to help the species survive, habitats are being restored by landcare groups with a long running restoration project being undertaken by Stanley Landcare.

The event drew landcare members, friends and the community with people travelling from Wooragee and Myrtleford.

The North East Catchment Authority kindly funded the Friday night event.

Mr Blackney said if people spot a southern greater glider, they can let him know by ringing 0459 622 260.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Soaring rate defaulters should come as no surprise IN response to concerns raised

by Indigo Shire Council’s (ISC) deputy mayor, Bernard Gaffney at council meeting, August 27, the director of planning and corporate services, Greg Pinkerton, said he does not know the reason for the 21 per cent increase in rate defaulters in the past year.

After the release of ISC’s 20232024 Draft Budget, council staff and councillors were warned that the differential rating strategy used by ISC would result in excessively high rate increases for Rural 1 property owners.

That is, the average increase in general rates for farmers would be more than six times the 3.5 per cent rate cap set by the Minister for Local Government.

ISC council staff and councillors were also provided with a simple solution which eliminates these excessive rate increases and distributes the increases equitably across all property categories.

But they have refused to consider it.

With the average increase in general rates for commercialindustrial properties set to increase by almost six times this year’s 2.75 per cent rate cap, it should come as no surprise if the increase in rate defaulters continues.

Open season for spring firewood collection VICTORIANS can prepare for next winter by collecting free firewood for personal use from state forest collection areas from now until November 30.

Domestic firewood in state forests is provided from fallen trees and forest management works to clean up after storms, to reduce bushfire risk and create safe access to forests for visitors and emergency workers.

The Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action (DEECA) said it balances access to firewood with safety, forest values, biodiversity and cultural heritage.

Forest Fire Management Victoria deputy chief fire officer, Aaron Kennedy, said people can collect up to two cubic metres per person per day with a maximum of 16 cubic metres per household per financial year as long as they collect from designated firewood collection areas during a firewood season.

Maps for this spring season’s designated collection areas can be found at www.ffm. vic.gov.au/firewood.

“Demand for firewood is always high, so we prioritise availability for local communities and those who depend on firewood as their primary source for heating and cooking,” Mr Kennedy said.

“It’s important Victorians plan their firewood needs early as it can take at least eight to 12 months for firewood collected during the collection seasons to be dry enough to burn safely and effectively.”

It’s illegal to collect wood outside designated areas or to chop down or damage any dead or standing trees.

It’s also an offence to take vehicles off formed roads to collect or load wood.

The Conservation Regulator and Parks Victoria are targeting the illegal take of firewood from Victoria’s forests, parks, and reserves through Taskforce Ironbark.

Authorised officers are patrolling public land and can issue fines of more than $750 to those caught breaking the rules, and serious offences have a maximum penalty of $9879 and/or one year in prison.

Community members can help by reporting any suspected illegal firewood collection to 136 186.

The Victorian Government provides targeted energy support and concessions for people on low incomes who buy firewood or need assistance with their energy costs.

This includes tailored support via the Energy Assistance Program, a $250 rebate for eligible households from the Energy Bill Relief Fund, payments of between $55 and $619 per year for eligible households that rely on non-mains energy including firewood for heating and cooking, and up to $650 via the Non-Mains Utility Relief Grant for Victorians on low incomes who rely on firewood as their only source of fixed heating.

Pedalling for a win

By CORAL COOKSLEY LOCAL mountain bike club members are excited to be shortlisted for this year’s Keep Australia Beautiful Victoria (KABV) sustainability awards.

The Beechworth Chain Gang (BCG) with its junior ride program (JRP) is one of seven of the town’s volunteer projects shortlisted in the running to win across various categories.

BCG president Lynne Frerichs said recognition highlighted the club’s commitment to promoting physical health, community engagement, and environmental stewardship among the young riders in the JRP. “It is nice to be recognised for the contribution we make in the lives of the youth who participate in the program,” she said.

“We are one of the first mountain bike clubs in the country and have been running for 24 years.”

The JRP started around 10 years ago by a group of parents who wanted to teach their kids how to ride bikes together.

“From there it has evolved into a program with more than 85 kids aged between five to 15-years-old participating in mountain bike (MTB) coaching

ride safely and in control,” she said.

“More advanced JRP participants are often called on to demonstrate skills to younger children with one teenager certified as a coach and comes out weekly to help out.”

The teenager’s family has three generations of JRP instructors who contribute each week.

Lynne said the JRP is an inspiring group of youth, certified instructors and parent helpers.

“We are grateful for all the immense contributions of everyone involved,” she said.

Second community scale battery set for Yackandandah Sports Park A SECOND community battery for Yackandandah is set to be coming to Yackandandah Sports Park.

TOTALLY Renewable Yackandandah (TRY) hosted a community information evening on August 22 to provide details of the forthcoming community battery.

The battery addition to the multi-use facility, which is home to at least eight formal user groups, will deliver significant benefits in savings, resilience and reliability.

Supported by Indigo Shire Council and made possible with funding from the State Government, the battery is designed to continue operating during disruptions to the mains supply, providing welcome support during extreme weather or emergencies.

While the sports park is not

a safe haven during fires, it can support the community during the recovery phase with essential amenities such as toilets, showers, shelter, and catering facilities.

The installation will include a 60kW solar system paired with a 200kWh battery, with community retailer Indigo Power appointed as the construction partner.

The battery will charge daily from the solar system, discharge each evening to power the stadium and contribute surplus clean energy to the local electricity network.

This collaborative initiative is made possible due to the enduring support of the Australian Ethical Foundation, via a $40,000 grant to kick-start the project and a $287,000 grant from the State Government’s 100 Neighbour-

Voluntary firefighters spark recruitment drive

By CORAL COOKSLEY BEECHWORTH Fire Brigade volunteers will be on hand at tomorrow’s local Farmers Market to chat about training up to be firefighters.

Brigade member Rohan France said six recruits are being sought after with training to start next month and a qualification to be awarded in November.

“We are seeking people who have a desire to help others, love to work in a tight knit high performing team, live in Beechworth or immediate surrounds, and available for emergency response,” he said.

“Skills gained working in a tight knit team are readily transferable to everyday life, as well as some of the more formal VET skills in first aid, chainsaw operations, truck driving, and leadership.”

Rohan said the brigade responds primarily to fires – commercial or industrial premises, houses in town or rural properties, car fires, hazardous materials incidents, as well as grass and scrub fires (bushfires).

As part of an ‘all hazards’ response to emergencies he said the brigade also assists Victoria Police by responding to car accidents, personnel rescue, assisting Ambulance Victoria in accessing and moving patients, and helping the SES with storm and flood abatement.

The brigade volunteer also said a large cohort of operational firefighters is needed to ensure a strong crew is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, every day of the year to respond to emergencies.

“We live in the most fire prone region of the most fire prone country in the world,” he said.

“The Victorian Fire Risk Regis-

Rohan said volunteer brigades also helped each other out within the area in protecting communities as well as reinforcing firefighters across Victoria and interstate.

He said the diverse and gender inclusive crew from young to older members from the community develop strong bonds of friendships for life from facing adverse

conditions together.

“Volunteers are trained to a very high standard with recruits not progressing to assessment until required skills are gained,” he said.

“Safety is core to everything that we do, and we teach both theoretical and practical skills covering everything from safety on the fire ground, to fire science, fire suppression and team skills.

“Tomorrow we will also be talking about preparing for the

coming fire season, reducing dead vegetation around properties, cleaning out gutters, removing firewood stacks from around houses, and creating defensible space.”

For more information about being a firefighting volunteer find the fire truck with the crew tomorrow while extra information about how to apply can be checked out at www.cfa.vic.gov. au/volunteers-careers/volunteerwith-cfa/apply-to-volunteer.

Marian Gordon painting her own world

By CHLOE JAENICKE EXPLORE the industrial history of the North East with Marian Gordon’s exhibition at Art Gallery on Ovens.

Ms Gordon only moved to the North East around two years ago and since then became fascinated by nearby water tanks and their social significance in the past.

“It was a progress really of moving into Vernon Road and seeing the tower down in Millard Street so I started painting that because it was close by,” she said.

“I was just looking for tanks and I discovered the Eldorado Dredge, so I painted that then I got interested in stuff left behind after mining.”

Instead of photographing what she wants to paint, Ms Gordon paints outside at the site of what she’s painting.

Ms Gordon said this gives her extra insight into what she’s painting and allows her to meet new people.

“When I was in Benalla one of the engineers who used to work on the cast iron tanks was telling me their whole history,” she said.

“He retired some time ago, but he still lived opposite and saw me painting and came out and chatted with me.”

Ms Gordon said what she enjoys most about painting is being able to express herself and answer her own philosophical questions on the canvas.

“It’s part of my management of my own mental health and it gives me great satisfaction and it’s sort of like creating a world, it’s incredible,” she said.

“I suppose you’re making a statement of some kind; you’re posing a question to yourself about what you see and you’re trying to answer it at the same time, that’s how I see it.”

According to Ms Gordon, painting takes plenty of focus as well as creativity to turn the three-dimensional landscape in front of you into a two-dimensional painting.

“It’s a bit like learning to drive, you have to get used to the space, you have to keep returning and doing a bit more,” she said.

“It’s a brain thing and an exploration of space, that’s why it’s so intriguing.”

This will be Ms Gordon’s first

Today’s carers, tomorrow’s future THIS is “the best thing ever, I have love and hugs I didn’t know I needed” is a statement from a young person who was recently placed at the home of a local foster carer.

UMFC (Upper Murray Family Care) are celebrating their carers more than ever this September as they recognise both their foster and kinship carers during Foster Care Week September 8-14.

The theme for this year ‘Today’s carers, tomorrow’s future’ provides a focus on the future of the foster care system and the crucial role carers play in shaping positive futures for children and young people in care.

UMFC is asking those within North East Victorian communities to take the step to simply reach out and find out more about the process of becoming a foster carer and the amazing support offered to carers

by UMFC. UMFC also recognises Kinship Care Week in September and celebrate their kinship carers who provide care and support to children or young people who are part of their family or kith carers who are a significant person in the child’s life.

“UMFC wants to thank all our carers for their remarkable generosity and commitment to vulnerable children and young people,” said UMFC’s chief executive officer, Felicity Williams.

“By our carers opening up their home we can ensure children and young people in our local area are cared for in a safe and stable environment.”

Renee, UMFC care services assistant manager said the major challenge UMFC is facing is the lack of carers, the lack of availability to place really vulnerable children.

“There are many attributes that make a really good carer, including patience, understanding, a loving home, and acceptance and empathy around the struggles young people in the care system face,” Renee said.

Sadly, there are many children and young people who cannot live at home with their families due to issues such as family violence and mental health.

They may stay with carers for a short time or a longer period of time, but in the end, the care experiences these children and young people have leave positive lasting impacts for their lifetime.

Anyone over the age of 21 years can be a foster carer.

This includes those who are single, partnered, work full-time, who are retired and more.

Carers are provided with 24/7 support and training and development along their caring journey.

Carers do not need to commit to long-term care, particularly at the beginning of their caring journey.

They can start or remain as respite carers, providing weekend care every so often to support other carers or emergency placements while longer-term carers are established.

UMFC is a Community Service Organisation, reaching across North East Victoria and Southern NSW. UMFC offers a diverse range of services and programs that are designed to achieve positive outcomes and sustainable change for children, young people, families, and individuals within our local regional communities.

Further information about becoming a carer can be found at www. umfc.com.au, via phone, 0411 544 581 or email: fostercareenquiries@umfc. com.au.

Stay safe while cycling during magpie season SPRING is the perfect time to get out and about on the bike, but it can also bring some unwelcome hazards for bike riders – of the feathered kind.

Whilst the magpie swooping season can prevent some bike riders from enjoying the pleasures of riding the local roads and trails, cycle safety advocacy group, RoadSafe North East, says cyclists should keep riding but take extra care in magpie swooping ‘hot spots’.

According to RoadSafe North East spokesperson John Weinert, advice given about avoiding magpie attacks varies widely and is often contradictory.

“Other recommendations are more practical, like posting on social media a local ‘magpie map’ to alert others, or taking a different route until the nesting season ends, typically

by November,” he said.

“One of the most popular tips is to attach cable ties or pipe cleaners to your helmet, while others believe flashing lights can scare magpies away.

“Unfortunately, experts say there’s little evidence to suggest these tactics are consistently effective, and many of them aren’t very practical.”

Studies have shown that magpies have excellent memories and can remember faces for a long time, so if a magpie has swooped at someone before, or a person resembles someone they’ve attacked in the past, there’s a good chance they’ll target them again.

While some unconventional strategies may work for certain people, the best advice is to respect these birds and all wildlife.

If you do get attacked; stay calm and avoid running, as that might provoke further aggression, quickly and calmly exit their territory and don’t wave your arms or shout.

And remember, all native wildlife in Victoria is protected by law, so it is illegal to harass or harm native birds and other wildlife without proper authorisation.

More animals suffering as cost of living rises: RSPCA

By JORDAN DUURSMA RSPCA animal cruelty reports have more than halved in the Indigo Shire over the past year, bucking state trends.

According to RSPCA Victoria’s recently released annual Animal Cruelty Report, 14 animal cruelty reports were submitted to RSPCA, down from 30 in the previous financial year.

A total of 2250 animals were seized by or surrendered to RSPCA Victoria’s Inspectorate across the state last financial year, placing pressure on the capacity of shelter services.

RSPCA Victoria’s inspectors said cost-of-living pressures for households, impacting affordability of pets, had contributed to a rise in surrendered animals.

Across the North East, animal surrenders and seizure numbers varied.

Fifteen animals were either surrendered or seized in Wangaratta, up from fewer than five animals the previous year Wodonga and Strathbogie Shire experienced respective decreases from 28 in 2022/23 to 15 in 2023/24 and 43 in 2022/23 to less than five in 2023/24, while Mansfield and Alpine Shire’s respective numbers remained consistent with less than five animal seizures or surrenders.

Towong Shire saw an in-

Almost 10,000 animal cruelty reports were made to RSPCA Victoria by members of the public in the 2023-24 financial year.

The top reasons included husbandry issues such as lack of grooming, poor hygiene or unsanitary living conditions,

POWERING VICTORIA

no farrier attendance, lack of shearing etc, underweight animals and sick/injured animals where there has been insufficient, or no veterinary treatment provided.

Wangaratta had a total of 81 cruelty reports, down from 112 in the 2022-2023 financial year.

Elsewhere in the North East, Alpine Shire had 11 (down from 24 previous year); Benalla had 57 (up from 53); Mansfield Shire

had 20 (up from 17); Strathbogie Shire had 44 (down from 58); Towong Shire had 12 (down from 17); and Wodonga had 122 (down from 123).

RSPCA Victoria acting chief inspector Michelle Green, said while malicious cruelty was still occurring, her team was helping struggling pet owners more than ever before.

“It’s an increasingly challenging environment out there following the pressures of the pandemic, and the cost-of-living crisis is only compounding this,” she said.

“The majority of what our RSPCA Inspectors are seeing first-hand is just how much people in the community are struggling, and when people are struggling their pets are often affected.

“The majority of the animal cruelty we see is actually neglect as a result of people’s circumstances changing beyond their control, such as hospitalisation, financial pressures, or sudden joblessness, while other animals suffered due to owners simply not understanding how to care for their pets adequately.”

Anyone with concerns about the welfare of animals is urged to make a report to RSPCA Victoria at rspcavic.org/cruelty-report or by calling (03) 9224 2222.

MP questions Future Made in Australia program INDI federal Independent MP Helen Haines has raised integrity concerns over the government’s signature Future Made In Australia program.

The $22.7 billion program is the largest budget measure in this term of parliament outside the defence portfolio, but Dr Haines said it lacked guardrails and oversight over the spending.

“There is a giant question mark where integrity and transparency measures should be in this legislation,” she said.

“We are talking about tens of billions of taxpayers’ money and I want to make sure the public knows where this money is going.”

Dr Haines will move three key amendments to the Future Made in Australia Bill, saying there must be adequate transparency over the spending measures, which aim to unlock economic benefits as part of the transition to a net zero economy.

Dr Haines cited multiple

RAISING CONCERNS: Indi Independent federal MP Helen Haines has raised concerns over the government’s Future Made in Australia program.

Pointing to her End Pork Barrelling Bill tabled in Parliament in 2023 as a way to improve integrity and oversight across the board, Dr Haines said solutions to the gaps are not hard to find.

“My End Pork Barrelling Bill provides a framework to ensure government spending of taxpayer money is done transparently,

by requiring clear selection criteria for grants and creating a Parliamentary Joint Committee to oversee grant administration,” she said.

“If my End Pork Barrelling Bill was passed, concerns about the integrity of these Future Made in Australia grants would be alleviated.”

Dr Haines wrote to the Treasurer last month, expressing her concerns on the Future Made in Australia Bill and outlining her amendments, and is met with the Treasurer on Monday to discuss them further.

SKILLED UP: Beechworth’s Tom Christesen finds being a volunteer fire fighter to help protect his community one of the most rewarding things he has done

Fighting our fires TOM Christesen was born in Wodonga, however his ancestors - originally from Denmark - arrived in Beechworth in the gold rush years and have been here ever since - finding gold, growing apples and cherries.

“I’m 23-years-old and a proud local of Beechworth,” Tom said.

What do you do workwise?

In previous roles I have been a strength and conditioning coach, facility manager, forestry contractor, part of an arborist crew and now currently a batcher/driver at Mawsons Concrete in Beechworth.

What brought you to your role/career?

Mawsons offered a full-time role down the road from where I live, and I leaped at the opportunity to gain further experience with heavy machinery.

What do you love about your work?

I love getting out and using machinery, but most of all I love getting out and helping concreters build things in the community.

What do you do in the community?

With what little time I have left in my working week, I spend it at the Beechworth CFA station for the Beechworth Fire Brigade.

Here I focus on maintenance of the station, the equipment both on and off the fire trucks, but also honing my firefighting tactics and strategies, resulting in an effective and efficient management of an emergency event in our community.

It is one of the most rewarding things I have ever done - helping those in need whilst in their darkest moments.

Is there an important community issue that you think needs addressing?

Being part of the Beechworth Fire Brigade, we were very busy with “grass and scrub fires” last summer.

Mostly they were the result of burn off’s getting out of control or simple accidents.

With only one pumper (urban response) and one tanker (off road response) we are very limited with having enough water and capability to tackle these.

I strongly urge people to accept responsi-

bility for their own fire safety, prepare their properties, register their burn off’s, check the weather, and prepare their burns by having fire breaks, adequate water and tools on hand, keeping their burns contained.

What would you do to solve change, improve that situation?

I would love to have more fire trucks holding more water available to the brigade, but I know this can be a hard issue to solve.

I strongly urge people if they have any questions about fire safety to please contact their local brigade (Beechworth is on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok).

Not only this but I would urge people to pass on their lessons learnt to friends and family.

The more people who can be knowledgeable about fire, the less we have to respond, after all we are just volunteers.

What do you see as one of the most important current world issues?

People argue and fight because beliefs differ.

We live in a free world with free speech.

The minute we stop having conversations because of fear of offense, that becomes a dangerous realm to play in.

“A fool contributes nothing worth hearing and takes offense at everything” - Aristotle.

If a group you would most like to meet or knew, came to Indigo Shire (past or present), or was already here, who would that be, what would you show them, and why?

Australian rock band AC/DC so they can put on an awesome show at the Hotel Nicholas.

Footy’s Favourite Farmer has community at heart IF the local football and netball club is the heart of a rural community, then Footy’s Favourite Farmer 2024 winner Greg Lumby is the beating pulse that shows Rutherglen is thriving.

Greg, who runs a cattle, sheep and cropping farm in nearby Brimin, has won $10,000 worth of safety improvements tailored to his business and a further $10,000 to spend on safety upgrades for the Rutherglen Football Netball Club (RFNC), where he is president.

The annual competition, in collaboration with AFL Victoria and Netball Victoria, celebrates the unsung heroes and unique role of sport in farming communities.

Greg is a highly regarded farmer who has been working on the family property since he was a teenager and is an outstanding leader, passionate volunteer and generous philanthropist within the local community.

In 2021, he and wife Kaylene purchased land next door to the home ground and donated more than 4000 square metres of space for a much needed second netball court and additional car parking , a gift that will benefit

LOCAL LEGEND: Greg Lumby named Footy’s Favourite Farmer and awarded $10,000 worth of safety improvements tailored to his business and a further $10,000 to spend on safety upgrades for the Rutherglen Football Netball Club (RFNC), where he is president. the club for generations.

He has also volunteered countless hours of his time, which he said is all part of belonging to a community that values supporting and keeping each other safe, both at the club and at work.

“It’s so important that we can enjoy and get home from our work safely so that we can enjoy a day at the footy and the netball on the Saturday,” Greg said.

“WorkSafe have been fantastic with the support they bring to footy netball clubs and it’s vital that the safety message gets out there, not only to our workers but to our families so that they understand the dangers.”

WorkSafe chief executive officer Joe Calafiore said volunteers like Greg demonstrated why it was so important to stay safe at work, so that people can get on with the im-

portant business of being part of a thriving community.

“It’s easy to see why Greg Lumby is so respected at Rutherglen Football Netball Club and throughout his community,” Mr Calafiore said.

“As WorkSafe’s Footy’s Favourite Farmer for 2024, Greg is a great example of why safety at work matters, because we are all part of something bigger in our communities, families and friendships.”

Greg said being WorkSafe’s Footy’s Favourite Farmer was not only an honour, but an incredible opportunity to invest in a safer footy club and workplace.

“There are many aspects to the farm that can be dangerous, and it’s important to identify where those dangers are and limit the access to the danger,” he said.

“The $10,000 from WorkSafe is just an amazing opportunity for me now to look at our business and improvements and the safety that we can bring back onto our property.”

Greg was chosen as the competition winner from among several monthly winners, who also received a farm safety pack valued at almost $2000 and merchandise packs for their local club and those who nominated them

Murray Bushrangers bow out, but look to draft

By WILLSON MACK THE Murray Bushrangers won’t feature in this year’s Coates Talent League finals series after going down to Gippsland Power in Sunday’s Wildcard Round at La Trobe University.

The Bushrangers got within a point with 10 minutes remaining in the clash but Gippsland’s Tom Matthews kicked the sealer as his side won 7.9 (51) to 6.8 (44).

While it’s a disappointing result, Murray Bushrangers talent manager Mick Wilson said it was a successful season.

“It’s disappointing to lose the first final because

I think we could’ve pushed deep,” Wilson said.

“Could’ve, should’ve, would’ve I guess but looking at our team’s profile it’s definitely a side that had scope to push deep in finals.

“We got a horrible windy day on the weekend where players were having shots at goal from 15 metres out and weren’t making the distance so it was disappointing that it wasn’t a day where the boys could’ve showcased their talent.

“That’s footy though.”

The Bushrangers have a number of draft hopefuls with Wangaratta’s Joe Berry projected to go within the first two rounds, while Shepparton brothers Jack

and Matt Whitlock should also get picked up.

The Bushrangers have other hopefuls as well with North Albury’s Josh Murphy, Yarrawonga’s Ben Kennedy and Shepparton Swans’ Oliver Warburton all a chance.

“If things go our way we could have five or six players drafted which would be a great effort,” Wilson said.

“In terms of Wangaratta, Joe Berry will get drafted and he’s a player that worked so hard in the offseason to get ready for his draft year.

“It’s a common trend that those bottom age players who work hard ahead of their draft year usually get rewarded.”

HUNTED DOWN: Brad Fendyk tries to work his way through a swarm of Swans as the ‘Bushies were knocked out of finals on Sunday.

PHOTO: Cassie Buchanan

Bushies’ season ends BEECHWORTH had their finals run cut short last Sunday running into the full force of reigning premiers Chiltern at Sandy Creek.

The Swans gained an early ascendancy with a six goal to one first quarter and never allowed Beechworth back into the contest throughout their 16.12 (108) to 11.7 (73) win.

Chiltern had their doubters after a disappointing 51-point loss to KiewaSandy Creek the week prior, but answered their critics in comprehensive fashion.

half (3.7) cost the Bushrangers any chance at keeping pace with the Swans in blustery conditions, who took a 26-point lead into the main break following two late second quarter goals.

Despite kicking two of the first three third quarter goals, the match was quickly taken out of reach for Beechworth who found

themselves in an unwinnable position at the final change.

A five goal to two final quarter was a saving grace for Beechworth who limited the bleeding to 35 points by the final siren.

The class of Kyle Cooper was on full display and dominated the match, along with Mitch Hemming, Nico Stephens, Dylan Van Klaveren, Jack Gray and Connor Garside who were also important contributors for the Swans.

For Beechworth, Degan Dolny capped off an outstanding season off half-back as the Bushies’ best while Brad Fendyk, Kayde Surrey, Clancy Ellett and Cam Fendyk all made an admirable final effort on their year.

Lachie Armstrong was a key pillar up forward again with three goals as Henry McCormick and Rory O’Brien also finished with multiples.

The Swans will play a rematch of their qualifying final and the past two grand finals

against the Hawks to see who will take on Yackandandah in the 2024 grand final.

Chiltern made a habit of breaking Beechworth hearts last Sunday as they also knocked the ‘Bushies under 17s out of finals.

On the receiving end of two close losses to the Swans during the regular season, Beechworth looked to be bucking the trend early as they took a slim lead to quarter-time.

With nothing separating the sides in the first half,

Chiltern put a handy three goal gap on Beechworth going into the last, when the margin would more than double in the 13.10 (88) to 7.6 (48) triumph.

Jarrah Eaton and Thomas Stefaniak were named as best for the Beechworth side while Reuben Pfahlert and Rourke Warner capped off impressive seasons with strong performances.

The Swans will play the Roos for a shot at KiewaSandy Creek in the grand final.

September 4- 10, 2024 ◆ OUTLAWS AND OFFBEATS: Melbourne Ska Orchestra is on tour.

Nicky and the orchestra CELEBRATING 21 years of the Melbourne Ska Orchestra, Nicky Bomba - Freeburgh resident and ringmaster of the 26-member-strong spectacle - says the collective have yet to run out of ideas for its future in keeping the Australian live music scene flourishing.

By LEAH ANDERSON-BYRNE

ple along the way that become part of your inner core team,” he said.

“A strong team of people with distinct roles and then the band, and the genre of Ska, is all about connections with people and working together.

“Once the team was consolidated we’ve got quite a slick operation now.

“As far as members go, no one ever leaves the band; we’ve just have 40 people on the books.

“The hardest thing is the logistics of transporting 20 odd people from point A to point B. “Having such a mix of musicians is pivotal in creating new music.

“Ska has had a lot of different influences and permutations from the original 60s in Jamaica, 80s American, the second wave in the 90s.

“We represent international Ska, being from multi-cultural Melbourne and so many nationalities within the band, we use that as our source for creating our sound.

“As far as the hybrid is concerned we’ve got a bit of funk, rock, African rhythms; there’s lots to explore and we’re getting better at that.

“Finding our own voice within Ska is about being active as composers, and the most important thing to us is our live shows.

“That’s out role as musicians; storytelling and connection with community is all the more vital these days and we do that well.”

As far as the live performance goes, Bomba has dubbed it an ‘experience’ rather than just a show.

“There’s no other band like it with that many people on stage and not static; we’re a crazy circus that happens on stage,” he said.

■ Continued page 6 .

Talking with Regional Extra, Bomba looked back on the dazzling success of the band and the non-stop passion of its talented members as they tour Australia over the next few months.

“Every year this band continues and it’s quite remarkable,” he said.

“It doesn’t make sense having a band this size go for this long but we’ve got such a great brains trust of musicians and songwriters that we’re constantly coming up with ideas.

“It feels like the momentum is picking up with the possibilities of what we can do.

“I still feel fresh about this band and it’s not often you get 20 odd people onstage with new possibilities of instrumentation and theatrics.

“For this tour we’ve added a few new things so people will see something different but we’ve kept the things that worked well, live, over the 20 years.

“The live shows are what we love the most; it’s better and more succinct connection with the audience.”

Managing a group of this size should come with its own challenges, but for Bomba it’s simply made for an exciting mix of imagination and skill.

“The number one thing is you pick up peo-

Scooting dogs

HAVE you ever noticed your dog scooting its bottom along the ground?

Many people assume the cause of this is intestinal worms, which can indeed be the case.

But there is another possible cause which we see quite frequently in small breed dogs, and that is overly full anal glands.

Dogs and cats have two scent glands, one on either side of the anus.

When the glands are working correctly they deposit a small amount of smelly liquid each time the animal passes faeces.

This is part of what allows dogs to identify information about each other via smell.

Sometimes the gland can become blocked, which causes discomfort as it becomes overly full.

The dog will lick its bottom obsessively, or scoot along the ground in an attempt to relieve the blockage.

The blocked gland can often be resolved by manual expression by your vet.

Sometimes blocked glands can become infected and form an abscess which is very painful, and requires treatment with antibiotics, and sometimes flushing or surgery under anaesthesia.

Sometimes older dogs can develop tumours or cancers involving the anal glands, particularly male dogs which have not been desexed.

Preventing blocked anal glands can be tricky.

Sometimes adding additional fibre to the diet every day can be helpful.

nemedia.com.au

GONE FISHING

with Dr Linda Bradbury, Warby Street Vet In other cases anal gland problems can be related to allergies (itchy skin), and may decrease in frequency if the dog’s allergy symptoms are medicated.

In dogs which are having very frequent anal gland problems, there is the option of surgical removal of the anal glands.

This tends to be an option reserved for severe cases as any operation involving the anus carries a risk of complications.

If you see your dog scooting repeatedly, a trip to the vet is worthwhile to determine the cause.

This Day in History, 1935 MORE WHEELBARROWS THE Wheelbarrow Marathon up Mount Buffalo in June, 1935, produced a crop of imitators.

Almost every state in Australia had its barrow pushers.

It was also inevitable that the Parkinson-Evans endurance push up Mount Buffalo would remain unchallenged, and on this day on 1935, a man and wife team arrived in Beechworth to make an attempt on the record.

Mr and Mrs Williams were from Toowoomba in Queensland and declared themselves fit and ready.

Mr Williams was 42 years old and his wife was the passenger in the wheelbarrow.

When the attempt got under way a few days later, it was so successful (the trip being completed in slightly under three days)l, the pair subsequently tackled the Albury and Melbourne wheelbarrow record, beating the previous time by nine days.

◆ BACK IN SEASON: Trout season opens this weekend and there will be many keen anglers hitting the water on Saturday morning.

Trout season opens Saturday, with plenty of rivers to fish in region THE big news in the fishing scene this week is the reopening of the Victorian trout season this Saturday.

The streams have been closed since the King’s Birthday Weekend in June to help protect spawning trout.

Thanks to quite a dry winter, the larger rivers will be worth fishing this weekend.

The Ovens River upstream of Bright, the Kiewa River upstream of Dederang, the Buffalo River upstream of Lake Buffalo, the King River upstream of Lake William Hovell, the Mitta Mitta River upstream of Eskdale, and anywhere along the Buckland River will all be worth a try.

The smaller tributaries will also be worth fishing although they may be a bit more hit and miss than the larger rivers which are general a bit more consistent early in the season.

with Rob Alexander WANGARATTA Now that September is here the Murray cod season has closed.

We can still go fishing in the rivers that have Murray cod in them, however we are not allowed to target Murray cod.

I fish the Ovens River a lot during the spring time.

I leave my heavy cod fishing gear at home, including lures, and just focus on bait fishing with worms for the next three months.

My main target species is

yellowbelly, however I am happy to catch anything and often pick up a few carp and other species as a by-catch.

Murray cod will still take worms, but usually it is the smaller ones that are not spawning, and if I do catch a larger one, it isn’t often and is released quickly.

The good news is that if you wish to target Murray cod during spring, both Lake Eildon and Lake Nillahcootie have had their closed seasons lifted as there is little evidence in either lake of cod actually spawning.

Both lakes are stocked heavily with Murray cod, so the closed season does not apply to either of those lakes.

And for the record, there is no longer a closed season on Murray cod in Lakes Eppalock or Cairn Curran either.

SAND & SOIL

with Kim Mickelburough CHAULK STUDIO ◆ DREAM HOME: Buying a home that can easily be renovated is important when creating your dream home.

Getting smart about renovating can help to save you thousands WE have designed many home renovations in our years of practice and learned many useful things along the way.

Many of our lessons learned, which I’m delighted to share, can save prospective home-buyer-renovators thousands in the long run.

A few years ago, friends purchased a house at a frenzied auction.

The week following they engaged us to transform the house into their dream home.

Excited, we all jumped in the car and headed out to inspect the new house.

It turns out the doublestorey house was built with concrete and load-bearing blockwork throughout – moving any wall was going to be difficult and expensive.

That leads me to lesson number one – when buying a house to renovate, first check its structural make-up.

The easiest houses to renovate are timber framed, timber trussed with non-load bearing internal walls that enable internal layouts to be adjusted without expensive structural gymnastics.

Lesson number two - be clear on how you would like to arrange your future home and look for a best-fit as some plans lend themselves to transformation better than others.

For instance, many older homes had smallish living rooms at the front and leantos at the rear.

These are often successfully converted by converting old living rooms into bedrooms and replacing the

And lesson three - it’s good to find a house that has the basics right so you’re starting out with the most upward potential.

Things like poor orientation, narrow hallways, low-ceiling heights and dampness are difficult to overcome and can affect the amenity of the final design outcome.

We’re always happy to help our clients with pre-purchase inspections as it’s better to understand potential before you buy rather than deal with an unnecessarily difficult renovation.

Melbourne Ska Orchestra FEATURE STORY celebrates its 21st year ■ From page 1 “Put in great musicianship, dedication to connection with audience and the love we have for what we’re doing and you’ve got something special.

“We’ve never had a hit song on the radio but with ARIA awards and internationally sold-out shows it’s clear that our chemistry and energy translates onstage.

“The audience is as much a part of the performance as the band is.”

The current 21st anniversary tour; Outlaws and Offbeats also comes off the band’s most recent single; John Wayne, which takes their sound in yet another new direction.

“We always have one foot in paying respect to the Ska sensibilities, and for me that’s the exciting thing

of where we can go to next,” Bomba said.

“John Wayne is spaghetti western Ska; we have two members who used to be in an outfit that played those theme songs lived and toured so seemed like an obvious well of information to dive into.

“It worked out backwards though; before we had the single we had the tour name.

“The offbeat is a hat tip to the Ska genre and really the whole genre came from the danger associated with it; born from the independence of Jamaica in 1962.

“My co-manager Wally and I had the John Wayne single sitting there for awhile and the whole thing just wrote itself.

“The disappointment of gun culture with this John Wayne character

macho-gun-toting image isn’t relevant anymore, yet so prevalent.

“Our group is a mixed bag; the riff and the raff and a beautiful collection of personalities and nationalities like a musical UN. “We really encourage people to support live music, come see a magnificent show and invest in the music of Australia.”

Melbourne Ska Orchestra is touring now, get your tickets at https://www. melbourneskaorchestra.com/shows/. * For your chance to win two tickets to see Melbourne Ska Orchestra at the Theatre Royal in Castlemaine on Saturday, September 14 email your name address and contact phone number to sdouthie@nemedia.com.au. Competition closes on September 6 at 5pm

◆ TALENTED ORCHESTRA: The competition for free tickets to the Melbourne Ska Orchestra closes on September 6.

Every act of kindness creates ripples of positivity.

2. Embrace empathy: Practice active listening, especially with those who hold different views.

Strive to see the world through others’ eyes.

3. Celebrate diversity: Embrace the rich tapestry of cultures and backgrounds that make our community unique.

Let’s move beyond tolerance to genuine celebration of our differences.
