On Wednesday Nitro Gym promotions manager Mike Jones said the gym was not linked to the Comancheros.

MAYOR Geoff Ablett is among four Casey Councillors to nominate for Liberal Party preselection ahead of November’s state election. After another round of nominations which closed on Friday, the Victorian Division of the Liberal Party announced that Crs Ablett and Gary Rowe had thrown their hats into the ring for pre-selection in the seat of Cranbourne. Deputy Mayor Amanda Stapledon, who ran as an Independent for Cranbourne in the 2010 state election, has also confirmed her nomination for the seat of Narre Warren North, while Cr Susan Serey confirmed her nomination for Narre Warren South. The Narre Warren seats are currently held by Labor MPs Luke Donnellan and Judith Graley respectively. This week Cr Wayne Smith said Cr Ablett should consider standing down from his role of mayor in the lead-up to the election if he is preselected for Cranbourne. “I don’t believe he (Mayor Ablett) should be in a position where he’s compromised,” Cr Smith said. “Geoff could be put in awkward position where he has to lobby the State Government on behalf of council when he also is being a candidate for the Liberal Party. “Who knows whether that will happen or not, and how Geoff will handle it, but there’s definitely potential for it to happen.” Last year Cr Smith also raised concerns about councillors in “top council leadership” also being parliamentary candidates. Cr Smith said he was against candidates “using the leadership roles of mayor and deputy mayor to advantage their parliamentary election prospects.” Mayor Ablett, who stood for Cranbourne in the 2010 state election, confirmed his 2014 nomination but Liberal Party rules restrict him from commenting further. Cr Gary Rowe, who was Cranbourne MP from 1992 to 2002, said he would continue to serve on council if he was pre-selected and would only stand down from his current role if he was elected. Milroy Martyn and Ali Khan have also nominated for the Liberal Party in the seat of Narre Warren North, while Marlon La Brooy and Mark Plosnic have nominated for Narre Warren South.

AS THE centenary of the start of World War I looms, 15-year-old Travis Reid will soon walk in his great-grandfather’s shoes. The Fountain Gate Secondary student was this month awarded the 2013/14 Premier’s Spirit of Anzac Prize by Denis Naptine, and as a result will travel overseas in April for a study tour of World War I battlefield sites. Travis’s great-grandfather Archibald Reid fought in World War I as part of the 3rd Divisional Signals Company. “My dad’s grandfather was in the regiment, so that was a bit of inspiration,” Travis said. For his service in World War I, Archibald was awarded the Bronzian District Medal, while he also received several accolades for his involvement in World War II, including the British War Medal, the Victory Medal, the War Medal and the Australia Service Medal. Travis, 15, applied for the Anzac Prize through his humanities class at school, in which the award had been set as a class project. Along with other classmates, Travis wrote an essay on what can be learned from the Anzac spirit. “I talked about the spirit of the Anzacs and its relevance to today,” Travis said. “I discussed natural disasters, the Eureka Stockade, the National Disability Scheme, earthquakes and bushfires, to show how people work together through hard times.” Belina Irving, Travis’s humanities teacher last year, said she put a strong emphasis on “teaching commemoration in the classroom”. “Travis had a unique perspective

on the question and looked at the Anzac spirit as something that was not originally forged in war but in the building of Australia as a nation,” she said. “He argued that the Anzac spirit was forged on the gold fields and in the ’Aussie battler’.” The Anzac Prize tour will see the group explore Greece, Istanbul, Gallipoli, Turkey, Belgium and Paris. Ms Irving accompanied Anzac Prize recipients on their tour last year and spoke highly of the experience Travis is about to have. “The trip is a once in a life time experience to bear witness to the amount of lives lost during the war and commemorate the Anzac spirit that would have seen them through the tough times,” Ms Irving said. “To stand on the shores of Gallipoli which are very much like home, to stand among a sea of white headstones signifying the generation of men lost to war, to hear the ode read at Vimy or Lone Pine, is a very humbling experience and will help Travis’s understanding of the sheer magnitude to which our diggers sacrificed their lives. “It is a trip which every Australian should do at least once in their lifetime, before their sacrifice is truly forgotten.” Premier Denis Napthine, who attended the award ceremony as well as Ted Baillieu, praised Travis’s efforts earlier this month. “With almost 500 entries submitted this year, Travis should feel extremely proud for being selected as one of the recipients of the prize,” Dr Napthine said. “The Victorian Government is pleased to offer a competition that inspires students to learn more about the Anzacs and about World War I.”

Court cooling ice use SPECIALISTS are struggling to find effective treatments for “epidemic” levels of the illicit stimulant drug ‘ice’, says the magistrate at the south-eastern-based drug court. Tony Parsons sits on the state’s only drug court in Dandenong, which oversees 60 offenders in Melbourne’s south-east diverted onto communitybased drug treatment orders. They take part in a two-year intensive treatment and counselling regime as an alternative to a jail sentence. Five years ago, ice - also called crystal methamphetamine - was barely a factor in criminal cases, Mr Parsons says. Heroin remains the most common substance abused by the court’s defendants, but half of the drug court’s of-

Dandenong Drug Court is at the forefront of an alternative way of punishing drug-addicted criminals. Its magistrate Tony Parsons gives offenders every chance to clean up and stop reoffending, Cameron Lucadou-Wells reports. fenders are using ice and half of those offenders combine heroin and ice. Mr Parsons says some heroin users take ice because it keeps them awake to enjoy their high; ice users take heroin to help them sleep. “It’s rapidly making the picture more complicated. It’s epidemic in its proportion. “It’s become such a common fea-

ture in such a short space of time. It’s such a new problem that the therapeutic community haven’t made a lot of progress in treatments. “We don’t have the tools (such as methadone medication for heroin) because it’s such a new phenomenon.” Mr Parsons said research into substitute drugs was in its “infancy”, such as trials of the ADHD-medication

dexamphetamine in England and New South Wales. In the court’s program, some offenders were trying anti-depressive medication and cognitive therapy group sessions. A report by drug research group Turning Point released last year found ice-related ambulance callouts jumped significantly across Melbourne in 2011-12. Callouts in Greater Dandenong rose from nine in 2010-11 to 30 in 201112 - the third highest municipality in Melbourne. In Casey, attendances rose from 11 to 25. Mr Parsons laments the toll of the “terrible drug” that elicits psychotic, violent and risk-taking behaviour, such

1300 136 907 the prison system, the corrections system and bullied by the kids at school - to have someone like a magistrate applaud you can be very powerful, very moving.” Any slip up - for failed drug tests and missed appointments - leads to a reprimand, homework or a day’s jail or community work. Once an offender reaches a tally of 15 days jail and six days community work, they are sent to prison for two weeks. If a person has “seriously reoffended”, they are kicked off the program. Last Monday, there were a few slip-ups. A husband and wife had tested positive for ice, coinciding with a family bereavement. Mr Parsons consoles the wife but urges both to “get back on track”. Another young man appearing in the court had relapsed using ice several times in a recent three-week period and was on the verge of being sent to jail for two weeks. He gained some credits for taking part in the first week of a Matrix cognitive therapy program and performing a day’s community work. “You’ve got to meet us halfway... and then we can relax those rules. Good luck with the Matrix program and your commitments,” Mr Parsons told him. “He’s done the work. He’s

earned the right to stay in the community,” Mr Parsons later said. “I’ve told him if he hits 15 days in jail, I’ll put him in. “At the heart of this order is accountability. I can’t bend the rules. It goes against the efficacy of the program. It’s the corrective power as well as the medical treatment that makes it successful.” The drug-court model in Dandenong is a success story proven by research, used in 13 countries and several Australian states. In Dandenong, about 1015 per cent of participants are “heroically successful”. They graduate through the twoyear program’s three stages of stabilisation, consolidation and re-integration. They stop using, get a job and are back with their kids. About half don’t graduate but get to the end of the treatment order. The remaining third have absconded, can’t cope with the conditions and are re-arrested. A KPMG review into the drug court is due for release in May. Mr Parsons knows the “data is positive”. He estimates the drug court keeps about 50 people out of jail each year at a cost of $1.5 million. To house those people in jail would cost $5 million. Mr Parsons describes the

two-year orders as a “realtime jail sentence that the defendant can serve in the community as long as they comply with a highly-supervised, highly-structured drug treatment program”. Offenders undergo supervised urine drug-tests three times a week, under the premise that it’s hard to “cheat” if drug testing is that regular. Those battling alcohol are tested five days a week. They are expected to attend weekly clinical, drug counselling and case manager appointments, as well as regularly front Mr Parsons in court. They have organised adult literacy classes, as well as stable and safe accommodation - without which “they don’t have a prayer”, Mr Parsons said. Their every health need is met and a liaison officer at Centrelink helps to ensure the offenders have an income. He enthuses about the intimacy of knowing each of the defendants well. “Here I see 40 per cent of participants every week. I know them very well and know them in subtle ways. “They know how I’m going to respond to their behaviours. That makes them accountable.”

IT’S strange to see a magistrate lead a courtroom in a warm round of applause for a convicted criminal. Stranger still for the judge to walk around from behind the bench, take off his glasses, shake the offender’s hand, hand over a certificate and a gift and say: “My heartiest congratulations”. At Dandenong Drug Court last Monday, magistrate Tony Parsons demonstrated the kind side of a carrot-andstick system of getting about 60 drug-addicted criminals in Melbourne’s south-east on the straight-and-narrow. They have been diverted from jail sentences to serve time in the community under an intensive treatment regime - with the “coercive power of a (jail) sentence hanging over your head” as Mr Parsons puts it. The defendant had been ‘promoted’ as a reward for “exceptional progress” including full-time work and consistently clean drug tests over the previous 15 months of his drug treatment order. There has been just one “hiccup” over Christmas. As punishment, Mr Parsons ordered the man to do some homework. “I really value what I’m reading in your homework,” Mr Parsons said. “You’re nailing all the things I want to hear from you.” The defendant returned the compliments: “Thank you. (The program’s) changed my life around and I’m doing the stuff I want to do.” Joining the applause in the courtroom was the drug court ‘team’ - a police officer, a case manager and a clinician. For each achievement - even if among a string of failed drug tests - offenders earn praise and sometimes lucky dip prizes such as movie tickets. “The lucky dip is very playful. You can see people smile for the first time in the courtroom,” Mr Parsons says. “If you have got a jail history 10 years long, been called a loser all your life by

as brazen driving not to mention the brain damage that is “rarely 100 per cent” reversible. “The other research is if you’re a regular user, it takes five to 10 months of abstinence before the effects reverse. That’s why it’s important this order is for two years so we can hang onto them. “It’s a terrible drug. It makes people utterly fearless. They don’t seem to have understanding of the consequences of their behaviour. “All their inhibitions are gone. It seems to give people the strength of Superman. “People who take ice don’t sleep. When people don’t have sleep for 10 days, that’s when psychotic behaviour emerges.”

Here’s cheers to them By LACHLAN MOORHEAD

Casey working on harmony

CLAUDIA Warszawski is no stranger to stages. This will definitely be helpful when the 19-year-old Endeavour Hills teen jets off to Florida in April to take part in the World Cheerleading Championship as a member of her club, The Outlaws. Two other Casey girls Cranbourne’s Aurelia Tomciu and Narre Warren’s Tayla Little - will also be competing in the Outlaws outfit that heads to America for a weekend of challenging routines to be broadcast on national television via ESPN. Claudia said she was extremely proud to be part of the first all-girl team to compete in the World Cheerleading Championship, better known as “Worlds.” “At the end of every year we have team placement and tryouts and I later found out I had made the team (for Worlds),” Claudia said. “I’d spoken to my coach about Worlds but I actually had no idea they were going to send through an email to say that I’d been accepted. I thought I might try and find out sometime but I left it at that. “The next day I had an email in my inbox saying I’d been accepted. I didn’t realise what I was reading!” Claudia is part of a team in her club called the ’Kelly Girls’, aptly named after the infamous outlaw. Despite still being a teenager she is not the youngest cheerleader competing in Worlds on 24-25 April, with ages in her group ranging from 14 to adults in their twenties. In a bid to raise money for the trip, which is expected to

THE City of Casey was recognised at Local Government awards last week for its work in helping to tackle the widespread problem of family violence in the municipality. The council was presented with the Service Delivery Initiative Award at the 2014 LGPro Awards for Excellence on Thursday 13 February at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre. The award recognised the local laws teams for their family violence intervention initiative that aims to reduce family violence incidences within the community. It is estimated that 40,000 women in Casey have experienced violence from a male person in their lifetime. The council’s initiative involved training and modifying work practices so local laws officers could become more aware of potential family violence incidences when undertaking work in the community. In conjunction with the council’s health promotion team and Victoria Police, local laws officers completed family violence prevention awareness training in May last year. Training equipped officers with a greater understanding of violence, its gendered nature and how best to respond to likely scenarios that they might face when out in the community. City of Casey mayor Geoff Ablett said the award acknowledged the outstanding work being undertaken in family violence prevention in the municipality. “The initiative has assisted local laws officers to identify, respond to and refer family violence victims in an effort to reduce the number of family violence incidences occurring in Casey,” he said. “Casey’s Violence Intervention Initiative has also strengthened partnerships with Victoria Police and the Family Violence Unit.” The City of Casey was named finalists for other awards including Caroline Gillies, Strategic Planner for the Young Achievers Award and Home and Community Care for their Interactive Gardening Program.

With two months to prepare, Claudia said she couldn’t wait to get Florida and hoped her participation in the Worlds would be an inspiration to other girls.

Police slam fast and furious ‘fools’

Narre Warren North MP Luke Donnellan stands at the busy intersection with Timbarra Primary School Council President Sue Wren and former Casey Councillor Judy Owen, who are all calling for a school zone to be implemented at the site. Picture: DONNA OATES

Pushing for school zone By LACHLAN MOORHEAD TWO years after the local community tried and failed to get the speed limit lowered at a notorious Berwick school crossing, the campaign is back on the cards. Narre Warren North MP Luke Donnellan is again calling for a school zone to be implemented at Ernst Wanke Road, near Timbarra P-9 College and Parkhill Plaza, after new speed guidelines were introduced by VicRoads in November last year. It comes after a campaign in 2011 which saw a 341-signature petition presented to Casey Council calling for a school zone extension in the area. The council supported a change to the speed limit at the time, but the request was knocked backed by VicRoads, as the previous speed guidelines would not allow for a

school zone extension due to a fence line technicality. The new guidelines allow a school speed zone to be introduced at a remote crossing which operates away from the school frontage, which includes the crossing at Ernst Wanke Road. The new guidelines also stipulate that at least 20 students and 300 vehicles must use the crossing per hour before a school zone can be considered. Mr Donnellan said the campaign had received substantial support from former Casey councillor Judy Owen and Timbarra Parents Association member Sue Wren. “As the school has expanded, more students are using roads around Timbarra,” Mr Donnellan said. “This is an issue of common sense. Finally, we should get some action.”

A SPEEDING hoon wasn’t fast enough to evade police but is no doubt feeling furious. The Berwick probationary driver has lost his car for a month and will face court after flying through a 60 kilometre zone at 150 kilometres per hour. Greater Dandenong Highway Patrol Senior Sergeant Scott Roberts said the 18-yearold was among about 200 people who turned out in 100-plus cars in Apollo Drive, Hallam, at night on 11 February. “We’re out trying to keep the road toll down and these fools are getting out there on the back of watching the Fast and the Furious,” he said. “We’re not going to tolerate

this sort of behaviour.” The hoons moved on to National Drive in Dandenong South, where police observed the P-plater drag racing another car toward Bayliss Road. Sen Sgt Roberts said the driver came to a stop following a 700 metre police pursuit, telling officers his car wasn’t quick enough for him to get away. They impounded the vehicle and will charge him on summons with various offences, including driving at a dangerous speed. “It’s a mob mentality when these sorts of people get together,” he said. “If one of these people gets traction and puts it into a crowd,

there’s going to be carnage.” Sen Sgt Roberts said the hoon gatherings also caused public order and criminal damage issues, and businesses in Dandenong South and Hallam industrial areas had installed CCTV systems to protect their livelihoods. “They’re supplying us with images. We’re going to be using them,” he said. He urged anyone with knowledge of planned hoon events to notify police. “If they sit idly by, it’s taking resources away from looking after them and their family,” he said.

City of Casey manager Transport Paul Hamilton said council needed to seek VicRoads approval before any speed limit changes could be made on council roads, such as Ernst Wanke. “As soon as the council received the new guidelines, officers commenced preparing an application to VicRoads to have part-time school speed zones introduced at five locations in Casey where supervised flagged school crossings operate away from the school frontage,” he said. “Ernst Wanke Road near Parkhill Plaza is one of the locations submitted. The application was submitted to VicRoads in January 2014 and the council is awaiting a response.” A change to the speed limit on Ernst Wanke Drive would only apply during school hours.

Bad karma for ‘unfair’ permit By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE decision to grant a retrospective planning permit for a Buddhist temple in Narre Warren North has been labelled “unfair” by a Casey councillor. Last week council officers approved the planning permit for the Heatherton Road site, where a property has already been used recently as a Buddhist temple. There were 18 objections to

the permit, which will see the current property extended and additional facilities constructed on the site. The new development will also include a 31-space car park. Cr Rosalie Crestani questioned the ethical standards of the current planning rules, which allow for retrospective permits to be granted. She said it appeared as if the applicant was given preferential treatment.

“It’s unfair; retrospective approvals allow for people to get permits after they have used the land illegally,” Cr Crestani said. “This particular group gets preference while the rest of the community aren’t allowed to seek retrospective approval. Cr Crestani cited The Squatting Frog Plant Nursery, in Narre Warren North, as a business which had previously sought a retrospective approval and had been denied.

Opinion Re-writing history

Contact Tom Gibson 0438 574 472

RAYMOND Rickards from Hampton Park (News, 13 February) may disagree with my opinions, but it is unfortunate he, and the Anzac spirit supporters, are in denial about some basic facts in Australian history. During WWI Australian soldiers didn’t die in defence of our freedom or mateship. They died in the interests of British imperialism. Australian soldiers were assisting with the invasion of another country, Turkey, on the other side of the world. Mr Rickards, Australia had not been threatened and was never in danger of being invaded by any foreign country at this time. The Australian economy had been driven into recession with very high levels of unemployment. But, as well as deliberately deflating the national economy, governments used bribery and propaganda to recruit young unemployed men and send them to Gallipoli where thousands were slaughtered following catastrophic military blunders. The Allied forces were emphatically defeated at Gallipoli with the landing followed by an evacuation. Australian governments have subsequently wasted billions in the glorification of the Anzac tradition. This is really little more than a very expensive, taxpayer-funded, annual nationalistic exercise in the glorification of war: a distraction designed to cover over massive government incompetence by rewriting history. John Glazebrook, Endeavour Hills.

loans will be squeezed dry very soon. The Australian Competition Consumer Commission (ACCC) and the Australian Energy Regulator (AER) have no control over pricing for water, gas and electricty which is being charged by these greedy conglomerates with no mercy whatsoever. All taxpayers/ratepayers must petition the ACCC, AER and their councils regarding the soaring prices of essential commodities and also their councils regarding the on-going increase in rates every year. Government departments have all their facilities paid for by the taxpayer/ratepayer with regards to cars, petrol, registration, all domestic/overseas air travel etc. Hence why do they have to worry about struggling pensioners, low income earners

and families with huge home loans trying to make ends meet? According to the Minister for Local Government Jeanette Powell, the Council Act of 1989 gives councils discretion to defer payment on application or waive the whole or part of any rate, charge or interest on grounds of financial hardship. Section 171B empowers the council to waive all or part of payment of rates for a class of ratepayers without application. Eligible pensioners who qualify for the State Concessions Act 2004 can also apply to councils for rate relief. Dunstan Girton, Hampton Park.

Ray’s say

to help find missing pets

CASEY pet owners can get their dogs and cats microchipped at a reduced cost next month as part of a council run initiative. The City of Casey, in partnership with the Cranbourne Lost Dogs’ Home, is running a microchipping event on Saturday 8 March to encourage residents to microchip their pets. Residents can have a microchip, which is about the size of a grain of rice, put in to their pet by a veterinarian at a cost of $25 between 9am and 1pm on the day. City of Casey Mayor Geoff Ablett encouraged people to take advantage of the offer because microchipping was one of the most effective ways to reunite owners with their pets when they are lost. “All cats and dogs being registered with a Victorian Council for the first time must be microchipped,” he said. “Residents with animals who haven’t been microchipped are encouraged to bring them along on the day.” Microchips, which cause no discomfort or pain to the animal, contain a code that is linked to the pet owner’s contact details and confidentially recorded on the Central Animal Records Database for the life of the pet. Microchips allow animals to be identified Australia-wide, even if its collar or council identification has been lost or removed. The council also reminded residents to update their information if they move house. In conjunction with the Lost Dogs’ Home, the council has also developed a lost animals database that can be accessed by pet owners searching for their pets. To view the database, visit www.casey. vic.gov.au/lostpets. To have a pet microchipped, visit The Lost Dogs’ Home, 920 Thompsons Road, Cranbourne, on Saturday 8 March between 9am and 1pm.

Gambling stops as penny drops

Terry Power, left, has been helped out of gambling debts by workmate Nick Martinelli, right. 114878 Picture: CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS Included in that was a $72,000 superannuation and redundancy package in the early 1990s, which fatefully coincided with the widespread introduction of pokies in Victoria. He got hooked from the moment he won a $100 jackpot. After that point, he obsessed with trying to win back his losses. All that time, no staff member at a gambling venue told him to stop. Mr Power has described his state with poetry. An extract reads; “To gamble, not to gamble, that goes through my head I even hear the music while lying in my bed”. “All I was thinking of was

my next hit… I might get lucky,” he told the News. “Then all the way home you’re banging your head against a brick wall. You’re so annoyed with yourself. “You come home and start vacuuming the carpets or dusting. It’s more or less a penance.” He says with regret, “I could have gone around-theworld three or four times.” As the counsellor warned him, there would be selfconfessed “slip-ups”, such as a $700 splurge on the machines last Christmas Eve. Easy to do when you’re playing 10-lines $5 spins - in other words $50 stakes for each push of the button. It used to be worse when there were

$10 maximum spins - up to $100 a hit. Mr Power concurred with calls by Monash University public health researcher Charles Livingston for $1 maximum spins. At the moment punters can chew through $600 dollars an hour, Dr Livingston estimates. Mr Martinelli, who checks on Mr Power’s financials monthly, said his colleague had always kept up with his new savings regimen. He’s seen Mr Power shed the stress of his indebtedness. “He’s now got money in the bank.” said Mr Martinelli. For assistance, call Gambler’s Help Line on 1800 858 858.

A PROBLEM gambler who has squandered more than $100,000 on poker machines in Doveton and Dandenong has been helped back on the rails by his well-meaning employer. Terry Power, of Doveton, who describes himself as a “recovering gambling addict”, had owed about $20,000 on four maxed-out credit cards before his workmates intervened. Nick Martinelli, financial controller at Mr Power’s workplace CW Marketing in Rowville, helped organise a loan consolidating the debts and setting out a budget to pay them back. He personally drove Mr Power to a first meeting with a gambling counsellor. “I said to him ‘Do you want to stop this or not?’” Mr Martinelli said. “Because if you do, we’ll support you all the way.” Last year, a grateful Mr Power cleared the debt - with the help of a long-service and annual leave payout from his boss - and has since steadily built savings. Mr Power has come a long way from regularly blowing $1000 a week, usually in one pokies session. His sessions would stretch from 9am to 3am the next morning, he says, adding; “They fed you party pies and sausage rolls so you don’t even have to move from your chair.” As a measure to help protect problem gamblers, the State Government banned ATMs from gaming venues. However, Mr Power could within minutes withdraw more cash from that hotel’s TAB or an ATM across the road. He estimates his pokie losses at somewhere between $125,000 and $250,000.

Donate for a life By LACHLAN MOORHEAD FIVE years ago Martina Martinelli looked at her reflection and knew she was going to die. “You know when someone is about to die and they have hollow eyes?” she asked. “That’s how I was. I used to look in the mirror and knew I wasn’t going to make it.” In 2009 the former Berwick resident had been diagnosed with a defective kidney that weakened to barely 5 per cent effectiveness. Martina couldn’t climb one step in her house without needing to sit down. While it seemed impossible because she had a different blood type, her husband Mark insisted that she take his kidney. This led to the Irish-born Martina undergoing a progressive procedure known as cross match donation surgery, during which antibodies were taken out of her blood to make her as close a match to Mark’s blood as possible. “They created an environment in which my body was a lot more receptiveness to Mark’s kidney,” Martina said. Years later and with a renewed take on life, Martina is encouraging the Casey community to sign up as organ donors and get behind DonateLife Week, an event that is also supported by Narre Warre North MP Luke Donnellan and which kicks off this Sunday and runs until Sunday 2 March.

Matthew Leftley.

Andrew Mort.

Police seek these men POLICE are seeking to locate two men, believed to be living in Casey, in relation to different crimes. Matthew Leftley is wanted in relation to outstanding warrants of apprehension, including failing to appear on bail at Frankston Magistrates’ Court. Leftley was previously living in Langwarrin, and is now believed to be in Casey. He was last seen driving a 2004 black Ford sedan with the registration plates H2HELL. Police are also trying to locate Andrew Mort to interview him following an alleged assault at a boarding house in Cranbourne last year. Police said Mort had many associates in the Casey area, and is believed to be living in the Berwick or Cranbourne area. Police have released images of the two men. Anyone with information about their whereabouts is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Martina Martinelli almost died from a defective kidney but was given a second chance at life after an organ transplant. Picture: DONNA OATES It plays a key role in increasing organ and tissue donation. “Organ donation is something I really believe in, you can’t give anyone your organs once you’re gone,” Martina said. “It’s crazy to die and take something away that someone else can use. “The life it gives someone is amazing.

OPEN DAY Darren Van-Hostauyen fears his house will collapse at any moment after an earth tremor Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS damaged his property five years ago. 114542

Saturday 22 March 10 am to 2 pm

Claim shaken AN ENDEAVOUR Hills man is terrified that his house will collapse because of a delay in repairs following his five-year battle with an insurance company. Darren Van-Hostauyen claims an earth tremor caused significant damage to the roof and walls of his home in March 2009 but no repairs have been carried out because he is stuck in an insurance row with the RACV. Mr Van-Hostauyen first lodged a claim with the RACV in 2009, shortly after the earthquake.

The Casey father, who has sought the assistance of Holt MP Anthony Byrne with the issue, said the earthquake damage had worsened considerably over the years and he was now asking for more than his original compensation estimate. Mr Van-Hostauyen said he was seeking around $60,000 from the RACV to cover the damages caused by the earthquake, but he said the RACV was only offering roughly $40,000. “I fear it’s going to collapse. I’ve just progressively felt worse and worse because I’m watching my house fall to pieces,” Mr Van-Hostauyen said.

“There are cracks all over the joint - it’s a never ending story.” Mr Van-Hostauyen said his house was on a fault line that ran through the whole area. RACV General Manager Insurance Paul Northey said the provider was committed to resolving Mr Van-Hostauyen’s claim. “In response to his concerns, RACV Insurance engaged numerous engineering and building experts to assess the structural damage to his property,” he said. “Based on their findings we have made a settlement available to Mr Van-Hostauyen.”

EVEN after 102 years on this earth, it’s not hard for Phoena Jones to pick out a favourite memory from her century-long life. “When my husband proposed to me in the workroom,” she said. “He hated all the fuss, he just wanted to propose.” Phoena speaks of her husband Charlie, who she worked with for several years and raised her two sons with, Howard and David. On Tuesday her sons, who visit their mum regularly, came again to Chestnut Gardens Aged Care Home in Doveton to celebrate Phoena’s 102nd birthday with friends and staff.

Speaking prior to the birthday celebration, Phoena reflects on her long life, one in which she has “always been happy”. In her younger days Phoena sought a job at a sewing business for something to do, not knowing that fate had put her on a path to meet her significant other. “I answered an ad in the paper; I was getting tired of being at home. I wanted to head into town, I enjoyed the bustle,” Phoena said. “I went and looked for work and helped the tailor. My husband came one day and asked if I’d like to have a cup of tea with him. “I said ‘when’ and he said ‘Thursday, would that suit you?’ “I said ‘yes’.”

Ashwin Lennox, Lifestyle Co-ordinator at Chestnut Gardens, is Phoena’s carer and remarked on the 102-yearold’s incredible health and sharp mind. “She is very happy, I’m always laughing with her and having a good time,” Ashwin said. “She would love to return home but she can’t, there’s no one to look after her there in case anything goes wrong. “But she’s very happy here and we’re excited to celebrate with Phoena.” While everyone doted on Phoena this week for her milestone, the oldest patient at Chestnut Gardens said she didn’t like a lot of fuss. “I’ve had a lot of birthdays, they’re all the same,” Phoena said, smiling.

Brutal beating By LACHLAN MOORHEAD A MAN was brutally beaten with baseball bats in a vicious gang attack in Endeavour Hills this month. The victim, 20 and from Endeavour Hills, was attacked by five men after he pulled his car over on Mossgiel Park Drive to have a cigarette and make a phone call between 10.30pm and 11pm on Thursday 6 Feb-

ruary. The victim was released from Dandenong Hospital last week after suffering a broken arm, a broken finger and lacerations to his leg. Three of the attackers have been described as Caucasian, one with blonde hair, wearing a white singlet, possibly a moustache and armed with a baseball bat, while another was wearing a singlet.

One attacker was described as of African descent, wearing white shorts and a blue jumper, while a fifth man was believed to be of Asian appearance, wearing a dark grey or green polo shirt, blue jeans and may have had a tattoo on his neck. Anyone with information about the incident is encouraged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

This man was believed to be involved in a burglary and attempted burglaries in Casey.

Third time lucky for break-in POLICE believe a man wearing a motorbike helmet attempted to break into two food outlets before stealing cash from another. About 5.30am on Monday 10 February, a man wearing a helmet was seen standing at the back door of Soya Noodle and Sushi in Parkhill Drive, Berwick. He then started banging on the door with a hammer be-

fore running off when he was disturbed. He rode off on a red motorbike towards Narre Warren Cranbourne Road. The man was described as wearing a Driza-Bone coat and a red, silver and white helmet. About 5.50am, a man, also wearing a motorbike helmet, was seen using a sledgehammer to attempt to open the

back door of Nandos in Chapel Street, Lynbrook. After he was unable to gain entry for about half an hour, the man was then seen breaking into Gold Sweets, on South Gippsland Highway, Lynbrook. He managed to get inside and stole a cash till. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

THE redeveloped Endeavour Hills Leisure Centre has sprung back into action with the official reopening of the facility this month. More than 500 people attended the launch on Saturday 1 February including Gymnastics Victoria chief executive Jamie Parsons and dual Olympian and Commonwealth Games gold medallist Ashleigh Brennan. The $2.1 million redevelopment more than doubled the size of the gymnastic hall and refurbished the existing space, with the aim of the centre becoming the sport’s showpiece venue in the south east of Melbourne. Casey councillor Rafal Kaplon officially opened the new facility and said at the event that he was committed to supporting local sporting

clubs and investing in facilities to encourage greater participation within the community. “The hall now boasts designated cheerleading and trampolining areas and will be offering many more exercise and gymnastics classes per week, giving more budding gymnasts the chance to learn how to tumble, cartwheel, and perhaps even backflip,” he said. “Endeavour Hills Leisure Centre will now mix it with the best, with these improvements ensuring it is one of the premier gymnastics venues in Melbourne’s south eastern suburbs.’ Casey YMCA area manager Matt Spencer acknowledged the long standing partnership between the YMCA and the City of Casey and underlined the importance of the facility to the community.

YMCA executive officer Anthony Neal, councillor Rafal Kaplon, councillor Mick Morland and YMCA area manager Matt Spencer with the members of the Endeavour Fusion cheerleading group. “This provides the ability and incentive to grow gymnastics participation in the region, especially with the partnership Endeavour Hills has made with Gymnastics Victoria and their nationally

accredited Launch Pad program,” he said. At the launch event, 33 new gymnastics members enrolled, while another 15 enrolments were taken across the rest of that weekend.

Taking a dive to fight diabetes By LACHLAN MOORHEAD IT’S been 16 years since Brooke McGowan-Grills was diagnosed with diabetes and each year since she has dedicated her time to raising awareness of the illness. This year will be no different with Brooke planning to jump out of a plane next month to raise money for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. Brooke, from Narre Warren North, said campaigning about diabetes had been a passion of hers since 1998, when she first participated in the Walk to Cure Diabetes. “I’ve done the walk every year since I was diagnosed but last year I did the jump,” she said. “I wanted to do it again. “There’s usually around 50 people that participate in the jump.” The “jump” is just that - a sky dive out a plane accompanied by a partner who will be strapped to Brooke’s back. The plane will fly over Barwon Heads at 14,000 feet and Brooke will leap out, hoping to raise as much money for her act of daring as she can. Brooke said she wasn’t too concerned about jumping out of the plane, especially having done it before. “I’m more worried about diabetes. I think the more awareness you can get out here, the better,” she said. “Type one has a stigma about it and I want to try and challenge that.” To this point Brooke has raised $1600 but the 22-year-old is determined to reach $2000, and hopefully higher.

Drinkers pay the price By BRIDGET COOK DRIVERS across Casey might be thinking twice before they get behind the wheel after a few alcohol drinks, with police catching 16 drink-drivers on the weekend. Casey Highway Patrol conducted two operations on Saturday, aimed at removing impaired drivers from local roads. Senior Sergeant John Felton said Operation Think Twice was held on Saturday afternoon, where a number of road stop sites were set up across Casey. “More than 2100 drivers were tested at a number of locations in Casey and unfortunately 12 were detected in excess of the prescribed alcohol limits,” he said. “The highest reading was a male aged in his fifties from Berwick who returned a reading of 0.124 per cent. “His licence was immediately

suspended and he was issued an infringement notice carrying a $614 fine and licence cancellation period of 12 months.” The same night, police also conducted Operational Nocturnal, which Sen Sgt Felton said had a similar focus. A further four drivers were caught for exceeding their alcohol limits. Sen Sgt Felton said it was frustrating that people still weren’t getting the message. “Results such as these are extremely disappointing and provide clear evidence to us that some people simply don’t understand the increased risks to themselves and others that come from driving while impaired,” he said. “We will continue to target impaired driving and both operations will continue indefinitely.”

Young people speak up

Brooke McGowan-Grills, who has diabetes, will again be jumping out of a plane next month to raise money for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. Her tattoo reads ‘Jump for a Cure ’13’. 115102 Picture: ROB CAREW “A lot of diabetics spend their time in and out of hospital,” Brooke said. “Hopefully, I can help to prevent this in the future.” While Brooke’s confidence is sky high when it comes to jumping out of

the plane, she admitted her mum and dad were a little more tentative. “My parents were a bit nervous but they’re proud of me,” she said. “I’ve done the campaigning mostly off my own back.”

TWO events which will shine the spotlight on Casey’s young people have received funding as part of National Youth Week grants. The City of Casey received $2000 from the State Government for its Rock’n’Skate event and the Southern Ethnic Advisory and Advocacy Council received the same for its Youth Arts and Music Festival. The events will be run during National Youth Week in April, which aims to celebrate the contribution that young people make to their community. South Eastern Metropolitan Region MP Inga Peulich said preparations would now be underway following the funding announcement.

“The theme for 2014 - Our Voice. Our Impact - is about ensuring that young people have opportunities to speak up about the things that matter to them, and most importantly, to be heard,” she said. Minister for Youth Affairs Ryan Smith National Youth Week was about young people getting involved in local activities that have been designed by them and for them. “These grants support a wide range of activities that reflect the diversity of Victoria’s young people,” he said. National Youth Week will take place from 4 to 13 April. For more information, visit www.youthcentral.vic.gov.au/nyw.

Mr Byrne encouraged other young athletes and teams to follow in Oisin’s footsteps and apply for funding support to help them realise their sporting dreams and compete in a championship.

THE three-year saga of changing a suburb boundary and renaming Cranbourne East and Clyde North as Casey Fields came to end this week, with the council dropping all possible changes. After stern opposition from the community, the council resolved at its meeting on Tuesday night that the suburb names and boundaries of Cranbourne East, Clyde and Clyde North should remain unchanged. The decision comes after more than three years of consultation between the council and affected landowners, including two surveys being sent out to poll residents on their preferred new suburb name. The saga started in 2010 after a request from some community members to relocate the existing boundary between Cranbourne East and Clyde North and the council also looked into the possibility of renaming the new area. Surveys in 2011 and 2013 asked residents what their preferred suburb name was and Casey Fields came out on top both times. In November the council issued a public notice informing residents of its intention to rename the new suburb as Casey Fields. The council received 50 sub-

missions opposing the proposal, a petition with 108 signatures against the change and just one submission for it. City of Casey mayor Geoff Ablett said the decision to leave everything unchanged came after strong opposition from the community. “People love Cranbourne East and Clyde North and are proud of the suburbs they live in,” he said. “No one I spoke to said ‘gee, I think Casey Fields is a great name’. “This would have been OK if we were starting up a new suburb, but it did not go down well in an area that been established for 100 years. “People are used to their neighbourhood and have taken ownership of it and were resentful that we were thrusting change upon then. “So we have listened to the people.” City of Casey manager property, rates and valuations Peter Gillieron could not give an estimation of the time and money spend throughout the process. “Council did not keep a record of the time spent on the suburb name change proposal,” he said. “When reviewing suburb names or boundaries it is imperative that all affected residents are provided the opportunity to

have their say. “Council made its decision to retain the current suburb names in response to community feedback.” Selandra Rise property owner Nathan, who led a petition against the change, welcomed the news. “I have been in touch with a number of people and the vast majority are thrilled with this outcome,” he said. “The general consensus is that this is the common sense approach and the right decision has now been made.” Nathan said while residents were happy with the end result, the long process was a waste. “It’s certainly a costly exercise to basically come up with the same result as they started with,” he said. “It’s a bit of a joke, to be honest, but we welcome the result.” Cranbourne East resident Jean Perry said she was thrilled to hear the news. “I have let some of our friends know today, who jumped with joy at the news,” she said. “Myself, I am so grateful to all who signed my petition, for that I thank you, and it just goes to show you, if one feels strongly enough about anything, to make a stand. “After all, we live in a democratic society.”

Relayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s big bucks By BRIDGET SCOTT IT WAS the biggest Relay for Life in Victoria last year and organisers hope their fund-raising efforts this time will ensure the legacy lives on. The Casey Relay for Life is just around the corner and the committee has taken a different approach towards its money raising efforts this year. As of 20 February, seven restaurants in Beaconsfield and Berwick, as well as one Melbourne-based bar, will add $1 to the end of all table bills. This extra money will then go to the Casey Relay for Life, and subsequently the Cancer Council. Relay for Life volunteer Rod Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Grady said a fellow committee member saw another charity interstate take the same approach and thought it was a

great idea. Eighty One, Slippery Jacks, O.MY, Ambrosia, The Main, Four Figs, and the Belgium Beef CafĂŠ - a popular Melbourne based restaurant - are all on board this money drive. The money drive will run from 20 February until 27 February and Relay for Life volunteers are assuming a number of these restaurants visitors will most likely be involved with the fundraiser this March. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We thought there was every chance that the people in these restaurants were likely to be involved in the Casey Relay for Life,â&#x20AC;? Mr Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Grady said. Last year, the Casey Relay for Life raised more than $500,000. Karen Ryken, who has been on the committee for nine years, said if the Casey Relay for Life

doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t raise this much again itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still a huge success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The committee have worked extremely hard, and if we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get that total again it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be from lack of trying, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a really good opportunity for people to come together, raise some money and just walk. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Casey Relay for Life will take place at Akoonah Park in Berwick on 14 and 15 March with about 4000 people expected to turn out. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was the largest relay for life in Victoria and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only getting bigger,â&#x20AC;? said Mr Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Grady. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The community as a whole have embraced this.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;You would be hard pressed to find someone in the community who hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been touched by cancer in some way.â&#x20AC;?

New Nossal FIVE years after it opened, Nossal High School continues to put an enormous emphasis on new students, celebrating their arrival with a special Foundation Assembly every year. The annual assembly, held on Monday morning, recognised the Berwick school’s new cohort of Year 9 students and a host of others across Years 10 to 11, as well as new staff. Previous school captains were also invited to attend the assembly as a representation of the school’s brief history. Sir Gustav Nossal, after whom the selective entry school is named, presented badges to students during the assembly before parents were invited to stay for morning tea to meet him and their child’s teachers. Assistant Principal Wayne Haworth said Sir Gus presented the students with their badges as a symbolic gesture of being welcomed into the Nossal community. “Typically at the end of the ceremony Sir Gus meets the

Centenary grant boost for Anzacs By BRIDGET COOK

THOSE looking to honour the Anzacs by commemorating the centenary next year can apply for grants from the Federal Government. Holt MP Anthony Byrne met with Dandenong Cranbourne RSL Sub-Branch secretary Barry Rogers last week to call on local RSLs, schools, cultural institutions, organisations, sporting clubs and individuals to apply for a grant under the Anzac Centenary Local Grants Program (ACLGP).

fice of Australia’s servicemen and women in the World War I. “Next year’s Anzac centenary will be a special occasion and the grants program provides funding to assist the local community in commemorating the involvement, service and sacrifice of Australia’s servicemen and women in the World War I and the Anzac bond that was forged at Gallipoli in 1915,” he said. Types of projects eligible under the program including public commemorative events, new World War I memorials or honour boards, restoration of existing memorials or honour boards and the preservation, interpretation and display of

World War I wartime and military memorabilia and artefacts. Relevant school projects including research with a focus on military involvement and social impacts, will also be considered.

Marty and Mal’s big adventure By LACHLAN MOORHEAD IT STARTED off as a simple idea which just continued to grow. This is how Berwick resident Malcolm Ross described his upcoming bike ride to Canberra with his cousin-in-law Martin ‘Marty’ Vile, a journey they are now embarking on to raise awareness for the charity Bridge Builders. “We’ve been beating ourselves around the countryside on our bikes since September in order to be fit enough to cycle to Canberra through the mountains this March,” Malcolm said. “It seemed a shame to spend all that energy just for the sake of it at our age, so we decided to have a crack at raising some funds and awareness for a charity.” Malcolm, 59, noted how Marty, 66,

was already aware of the work that Bridge Builders had done in helping young people at risk assimilate into the community. “Marty has seen the work of Bridge Builders first hand, as they belong to a networking group he has used and so we decided to give them a hand,” Malcolm said. “Bridge Builders is based in the Eastern suburbs and helps turn around the lives of young people at risk.” Now with a charity in mind and the 1 March start date looming, Malcolm and Marty have stepped up their preparation for the ride. The pair have been making sure they get out on their bikes every weekend and as much as they can during the week to best prepare for the more than 600 kilometres they will be traversing.

Malcolm and Marty will be setting out from Berwick and riding to Moe, then to Maffra, then Bairnsdale and onwards to Jindabyne - with the journey expected to take eight days. “The distance is more like 680 kilometres, but it is eight days not seven of huffing and puffing. Anyway you count it, it will be great to get there!” Malcolm said. For more information on Malcolm and Marty’s ride, or to donate, visit www. bridgebuilders.com.au/events/rideforcharity Malcolm, right, and cousin-in-law Marty will be riding all the way from Berwick to Canberra next month to raise money for the Bridge Builders’ charity.

A NEW housing estate in Clyde North continues to find its feet with the launch of two new display homes over the weekend. To celebrate the grand opening of the Berwick Waters Display Village last Saturday and Sunday, Hallam-based Hotondo Homes held its own celebrations, inviting guests to check out its two new home designs at the estate while enjoying two afternoons of entertainment and friendly company. Tim and Marg Van Dam, from Hotondo Homes in Hallam, designed the two houses on display - the Erskine 290 and

the Lorne 302 - and were on site to oversee the opening. Tim said more than 100 people visited the estate over the weekend to tour the display homes and enjoy a friendly barbecue. “It worked really well, it has to be a positive that so many people were drawn to the houses,” he said. “There was a positive response to the floor plans. “One of our houses is a double storey and the other is a single storey.” Tim and Marg have more than 40 years of experience in the building industry and spe-

cialise in domestic construction ranging from small and medium to large new home builds. While Berwick Waters is still in its early stages of development, Tim said several people had already moved into the estate and that its houses held universal appeal. “The house sizes are on relevant allotments and have appropriate facades,” he said. “There will also be several footpaths and a lake which they expect to be as big as Albert Park Lake. It will be the go-to place. “Its above and beyond in terms of infrastructure.” 1114393-AM07-14

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

Economy dumbing down By CASEY NEILL AT LEAST six companies and 300 jobs in Melbourne’s south-east are on the line, following Toyota’s decision to leave Australia. South East Melbourne Manufacturers Alliance (SEMMA) executive officer Adrian Boden said Toyota was the biggest nail in the automotive manufacturing industry’s coffin. He said Toyota produced about 140,000 cars in Australia and purchased about 70 per cent of the components here, compared to about 50 per cent at Holden and Ford. “In December we had a number of companies who told us the Holden decision was going to make their life difficult but they could survive, but if Toyota left it would be a different question,” he said. He said preliminary investigations following last week’s announcement indicated about six companies in the south-east might go under, affecting up to 300 people. “There will be a number of others,” he said. Mr Boden said SEMMA representatives would visit companies in danger and look for opportunities for them to work with other SEMMA members to save jobs. “You have to have growth to absorb them,” he said. “We don’t have that growth at the moment.” He said pumping money into innovation wasn’t the answer. “Manufacturing’s been innovating for 200 years. It happens all the time,” he said.

Wilcox Metal Finishing’s Jill Wilcox, left, and Kaley Treverton. 114846 “It’s how do we take to market those innovations? We need to market them overseas.” Mr Boden said a government ‘buy Australian’ policy would help. “Don’t just buy on lowest price,” he said. Lyndhurst MP Martin Pakula met with Mr Boden last Friday, 14 February. “We discussed the potential impact of the auto industry withdrawal on business owners, workers and their families, as well as the flow-on effects for other small businesses that rely on trade in industrial zones in the southeast,” he said.

Mr Pakula said he’d visit auto component manufacturers in the area over the coming weeks, to discuss what assistance they might need. He said the State Government needed to support businesses to adapt, to export and to diversify. Jill Wilcox, from Wilcox Metal Finishing in Dandenong South, said Toyota’s decision was “a disaster” for the area and the country. “We were all hoping that it wouldn’t happen,” she said. “We’re hoping to keep on going because we do have other customers. “But we’re going to lose our volume. The car industry is big volume.”

Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Wilcox Metal Finishing has been in business for more than 50 years, is a third-generation family company and employs 23 people. It puts rust-proofing on metal car components. About 80 per cent of its business is automotive. “We used to run three shifts, 24 hours a day a few years ago,” Ms Wilcox said. “That’s how much it’s declined with things going off-shore. “We’re losing all these skills and factories.” Ms Wilcox said the company would now seek more work, including interstate, over the next three years.

Ms Seow said a surprise visit from the Chinese Lion was definitely the highlight of the celebrations. “They just couldn’t keep their eyes and hands off as it came around. Everyone was still talking about it at the end of the day,” she said. “Then the parade commenced, which showcased some of the Chinese New Year craft we made during the week. “Dragons and lanterns were everywhere.”

which was extended to all year levels in 2014. “We started Mandarin as our LOTE with the Preps, Grade 1 and 2 last year. The program was well received by parents, staff and students,” she said. “We were all impressed by how engaging the lessons were and that the little ones picked up the language so quickly. “It wasn’t long before we heard greetings in Mandarin at our courtyard among the students.”

A CRANBOURNE man, who often blacks out on a cocktail of booze and an anti-anxiety prescription drug, has been sentenced to 14 months’ jail on a multitude of offences. Michael Bushby, 41, a former heroin addict, faced 18 offences, including theft, driving, assault and breach of a suspended jail sentence at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday 10 February. His lawyer told the court Bushby became a “nasty piece of work” when drinking heavy quantities of beer, vodka and/

or wine in combination with benzodiazepine Xanax. “He drinks until he’s blind. He then takes Xanax and has black-outs.” Bushby had already served 77 days remanded in custody when charged with stealing two handbags from a Chinese restaurant in Caulfield last November. The bags and their contents were valued at $1200. The court was told he developed a taste for alcohol as a teenage plastering apprentice drinking with older men on the worksite.

He then developed a heroin addiction after starting work with a major construction firm. Then followed a chequered history including five jail sentences, and a breached community corrections order in 2011. In that time, he had taken part in one stint of rehabilitation eight years ago. Magistrate Julie O’Donnell imposed a non-parole period of six months, an $800 fine and a two-year driving disqualification. - CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS

resourceful ways to use or showcase water in their garden - it might be a water sculpture, drought tolerant plants, water friendly design or an innovative watering system,” he said. “Gardening has so many benefits including the development of teamwork and knowledge of horticulture, and it also gives everyone involved a great sense of achievement. “That is why we are urging all school and community groups in Melbourne’s south east to get involved.” The grants can be used to help finance rainwater tanks, watering systems,

creative water features to make gardens more sustainable and to purchase plants, tools and mulch. This year will see an online voting element added to the program, with community members able to cast votes for the best shortlisted ideas via the South East Water website. Runners-up will also receive prizes with second place for each category receiving a $500 Bunnings’ voucher and third place a prize pack valued at $200. Entries close on Wednesday 2 April. To apply visit southeastwater.com. au/loveeverydrop.

Community Diary Love the laughter NARRE Warren seniors celebrated Valentine’s Day on Wednesday 12 February. Members wrote Valentine messages and dropped them in a box. Later, they were asked to pick a note from the box and share and enjoy the loving message. The door prizes were won by Digger Griffiths, Cyril Gonsalvez, Rita Pratt and Inday Houghton. Bouquets of flowers with boxes of chocolates were also raffled and won by Cyril Gonsalvez, Noela Binns and Bev Holland. There was no entertainer for the event, so members were treated to a variety of jokes told by some of the senior’s usual jokers.

Nick Karanzoulis, Principal of Beaconsfield Upper Primary School I have been a school principal for the past 16 years, the last nine years at Beaconsfield Upper Primary School. Leading school communities is a very rewarding and satisfying job. Working with children, parents and teachers to maximise the learning made by all children is a task that I have embraced in all my years as a teacher and now as a school leader. All of us have a role to play in the education of children and through processes that will enable us to work together and hopefully provide every child with every opportunity, to develop into the best person that they can be- academically, physically, emotionally and socially. At BUPS we are committed to connecting our students to the vibrant world of learning. We believe students need a strong foundation in numeracy and literacy, and to do this, we need to enhance their self-esteem and motivation. That is why the focus at BUPS is on Personalised Learning. Our children experience real life learning in the classroom and through programs such as our Garden2Kitchen program, our instrumental music program, the Performing and Visual Arts, sport and our environment. karanzoulis.nick.s@edumail.vic.gov.au

Kooweerup Secondary College is an inspiring and vibrant learning centre with a very strong community behind it. I am always impressed with the fantastic support for the College from local groups in the community. Students and staff are constantly working together to improve the school in ways such as obtaining excellent results in the VCE. The College has grown in the past six years but we are stabilising to around 1000 students. During this growth we have maintained a strong sense of tradition and respect. The College values a positive school climate and works hard to extend the students through the Performing Arts, Sport and Pastoral Care. I strongly desire students to have a wide range of experiences during their schooling. The College has a strong transition program and works successfully with a number of local primary schools to ensure a smooth start to secondary college life for our new students. There is also a SEAL (Select Entry Accelerated Learning) program running at the College. In 2014, our Year 7 , 8 and 9 students use iPads and our senior students use Netbooks or another device from home. We are also undergoing a significant building program, using funds from a $7 million dollar government grant, to implement not only new buildings but a new way of developing and delivering curriculum to our students. At Kooweerup Secondary College, everyone is encouraged to achieve their personal best.

Ms Kerri Bolch Berwick College provides pathways for students aspiring to be the best in their field. Doctors, dentists, builders or hairdressers, our programs, including our High Achievers Program and our vocational learning programs, cater for students with wide and varied aspirations, with personalised pathways from Year 7 through to Year 12. 2014 has seen the introduction of our Basketball Academy, our ipad program and our new uniform. We are preparing for a Dance Academy for 2015 and continue with our highly successful Volleyball and sporting programs. But most of all we are focussed on learning.

1119795-DC08-14

Our VCE results are amongst the best in the area, and our VCE, VCAL and VET provision and completion rates are excellent.

Lakeside Lutheran College is poised for an exciting future and I am very pleased to be the new Principal of such a dynamic school community. Lakeside Lutheran College is growing. With the opening of our new Senior School Centre, we now have the capacity to accommodate 475 students. We also have plans to grow the breadth of subjects and co-curricular programs available, as well as deepening the learning journey with rich and rigorous learning for life. Lakeside Lutheran College is a mainstream Christian College which welcomes students from a wide variety of backgrounds. In fact, the Lutheran Church is the largest Protestant denomination in the world with a global reputation for excellence in education. The Finnish education system, often held to be the finest in the world, shares the same philosophical framework as Lakeside. In joining our College, students become part of a cohort of 40,000 students in 86 Lutheran schools and pre-schools across Australia, with a tradition of 170 years of academic excellence and high personal achievement. At Lakeside Lutheran College, we are committed to the highest quality of learning for all students, underpinned by excellent pastoral care in an authentic Christian community. Our College is now in its 9th year, and has a reputation for strong academic, sporting and cultural programs. Our small class sizes, and dedicated teachers who voluntarily commit to additional individual student support beyond class time, ensure that our students have every opportunity to achieve excellent all-round academic excellence and personal growth. I invite parents who may be considering Lakeside as an option for the education of their sons and daughters, to visit our website www.lakeside.vic.edu.au to gain further insight into our school life. Visit our College during Open Day on Saturday 3 May from 10am - 2pm. If you would like to visit the College, have a guided tour and speak to me or a staff member personally, we will be delighted to welcome you.

For further information, visit us at www.chairo.vic.edu.au or contact our Enrolment Coordinator, Fiona Clacy, on 5942 5632 or at fclacy@chairo.vic.edu.au. Fiona will be happy to answer questions and arrange a tour of the campus.

Our mission is “to provide excellence in Christ-centred education in partnership with families within a caring Christian community.” An education at Chairo is therefore founded upon a partnership between family and school, and we encourage parents to be active participants in the educational process.

I am very proud of Berwick College, its history, its place in the community, its inclusive education for all students who come to us and its achievements. It is a great school!

I’m particularly excited that we have our first group of Year 12 students this year. Students are now able to start as three-year olds and transition smoothly through the various sections of our beautiful, well-resourced campus without needing to leave to complete their schooling.

Our school values of ‘Excellence in Learning’, ‘Positive Relationships’ and ‘Personal Growth’ are reflected in the opportunities provided to our students. Our College motto is ‘I shall grow’ and for 37 years we have been providing education for our local young people, some of whom now have their children at Berwick College.

It has been my great privilege to lead Chairo’s Pakenham campus since it began in 1998 and to see it develop into the vibrant community of more than 550 students that it is today.

Today we are an integral and important part of the City of Casey Community. Thousands of students have graduated from our school and it is always a pleasure to have them visit us and listen with pride to how are making their mark in life now. Having our graduates return with beaming smiles and pride in their primary school makes my day.

1119157-FA8-14

We started with just 200 students, being housed in whatever buildings were vacant – the old guide hall, portable classrooms and the gymnasium. A violent storm had blown the roof of our school during construction in July 1989, delaying the opening at our new school premises.

Welcome to Maranatha Christian School! Introduced in 1970 we are the longest serving Christian School in Victoria with campuses in Casey and Cardinia. I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce myself as the new Principal/CEO. An educator in several countries for nearly 30 years, I am committed to academic excellence, and assisting students to be the best they can be, becoming responsible global citizens and lifelong learners. Maranatha’s vision is to be an inclusive Christian learning community in partnership with home and church. Through a model of Christ centred education within a safe environment, we seek to inspire children to develop and use their God given gifts and talents. We do this by employing talented Christian teachers who are highly qualified and well regarded educators with the ability to build quality relationships with students. To be a student at Maranatha means to access opportunity - the opportunity to learn, develop, serve, grow and excel. These are accessed by participation in a rigorous, challenging and engaging curriculum. I also believe that in order for young people to succeed in an increasingly complex environment, they need a high quality education; to be taught skills to achieve success, and to think critically, enabling them to become good decision-makers in life. As new Principal/CEO, I look forward to meeting with you and embarking with your family on this journey of a life of learning and achieving our utmost for His Glory.

Christian School

Paul Desmond came to St. Francis Xavier College Berwick and Beaconsfield as principal in January 2005, prior to which he had extensive leadership experience in numerous Catholic schools. Under the guidance of Paul Desmond, St. Francis Xavier College has expanded to three campuses, with a third campus, located in Officer. The College now has a population of well over 2400 students. St. Francis Xavier College is a Catholic community that is educative and supportive. We have a clear purpose: the development of a person of competence, conscience and compassion formed in the Christian tradition: one who is guided by a sense of hope and self-belief and who will be of service to the world. We recognise God’s presence in our lives by celebrating and pursuing personal excellence and by living courageously with optimism and respect for all. To enable St. Francis Xavier students to achieve their aims and those of the College, Mr. Desmond, along with a team of dedicated educators, has ensured that the curriculum is expansive and inviting. As well as an extensive range of VCE studies available, students have many options during their years at the College including: Hands on Learning, VCAL and VET courses.

This is a very special year in our school’s history – we are celebrating our 25th year of existence. It’s also very special to me on a personal level, being the founding principal of what I believe to be a marvellous school. We’ve come a long way since we opened our doors as temporary guests of Berwick Primary School in February 1990 in Peel Street.

Secondary schooling is an exciting time for students and their families when students strive towards greater independence and responsibility for their own learning and behavior.

“What defines a good school? Inspiring teachers, modern facilities, a diverse curriculum, a proud history in the community? Yes, these things are all important, and we tick all of those boxes. We offer enormous opportunities at very affordable fees. We also are proud of our solid record of academic results, with increasing numbers of our students receiving VCE Season of Excellence awards.

At Cranbourne Secondary College we provide a safe, dynamic learning environment to facilitate the importance of community and relationships. We recognize student effort by acknowledging and celebrating achievement and success. Our College’s approach is to gradually extend every student to their potential in an atmosphere of respect, trust and cooperation by providing a broad array of academic and personal skills to prepare them for adult life. We embrace high expectations to encourage academic excellence and experienced based learning with the aim to extend confidence and optimism in our students.

However, I believe the most valuable asset to a school is its students. And at Beaconhills College, I genuinely believe we help produce good students and most importantly, good people.

1119717-LB08-14

We have now launched an innovative new program called Learning that Matters, which aims to achieve the very best outcomes for our students. At the heart of this program are our College values –compassion, integrity and respect.

Parent input is welcome and valued. We provide numerous forums where parents can play an active role in the education of their children through open communication with staff. Getting the best from and for our students Ken Robinson, Principal

Heritage College is a K-12 School that promotes and infuses Christian and family values into its curriculum and school operation. At Heritage, we have an open enrolment policy, accepting students from all families that are seeking a quality education that treats each student as a valued individual. Our philosophy of students ‘achieving better tomorrow than yesterday’, results in students reaching their highest potential in their chosen academic career path. School however, is about more than academic achievement, and at Heritage, we focus on developing the whole student into contributing citizens to our communities. We include the spiritual, social, physical as well as the academic growth of each of our students. This approach to teaching excites me as principal, realising that as teachers we have a unique opportunity to help families and their children reach their full potential in our society. To help them grow into individuals that have a value system that understands life has a reason for existence and a positive hope for the future. Heritage is at an exciting phase of its development, now covering two campuses, one in Narre Warren South and our new campus in Officer. As principal, I have the best job in the world. I invite you to either contact me for an interview and tour, or visit our website www.heritagecollege.com.au. I would love to talk to you about how Heritage College may assist you in the nurturing of your child.

Tony Sheumack, Headmaster, Beaconhills College choosing the right school is a very important decision.

1119977-EP08-14

I welcome everyone back to our school community for the 2014 school year, a year in which we will celebrate 20 completed years as St Peter’s College. Our history, although relatively short, has defined us as a College which prides itself on giving students the opportunity to develop their full potential and all their God given talents. Our College building program continues in 2014 with ‘Stage 3A’ being undertaken on our East Campus, delivering a state-of-the-art Arts & Technology Learning Hub and a ‘Trade Skills Centre’ being built at the West Campus, which will not only open up enhanced learning opportunities for St Peter’s College students but also to students of other nearby education facilities. I would also like take this opportunity to congratulate 2013 Year 12 Graduate, Deep Patel, the Dux of St Peter’s College with an ATAR score of 97.35. Deep is an outstanding young man whose work ethic provides an example for all of our young students who want to get the most out of their schooling. Effort, diligence and an ability to constantly seek feedback have marked his journey at St Peter’s College and as a result he now finds many different pathways opening up to him. As in past years, 2014 will have as its focus our students and their education. An education which will allow them not only to succeed but thrive in the 21st Century.

We’re in and we’re rapt By JARROD POTTER ONLY 10 days before applications were due Dandenong City Soccer Club had not decided if it wanted to pursue a National Premier League (NPL) licence. After putting in countless hours to get the licence bid and application completed, the club placed its name on the list of potential licensee and had to wait for the news. Last week the potential concept turned into a tangible NPL license - with Football Federation Victoria granting Dandenong City its license and ability to make its mark in the inaugural competition this season. Dandenong City’s senior men’s team will feature in NPL 1 - the second tier of the NPL structure - and square off against other local sides Kingston City and Springvale White Eagles and fight for promotion to the NPL. Club president George Sabljak said the club was thrilled to play in the premier competition and for the entirety of the structure - from under-12 juniors through to senior men and women - being a priority for developing future Australian soccer stars. “We are extremely rapt, it was a very exhausting procedure with very little time and we really didn’t know whether we’d be successful or not but we were pretty ecstatic when we

finally announced that we were one of the successful licensees,” Sabljak said.”It’s important - not many people are aware that soccer is the most participated sport in the country, bigger than Aussie Rules and NRL together - and what we see the NPL is able to do is to continue on with that pathway and produce successful Kewells, Vidukas and guys like that.” The club is interested in maintain an FFV State Leagues and junior presence outside of the NPL model and was unsure whether the NPL teams would maintain the Dandenong City name or if it would be entered under a new title. “Absolutely if there’s enough demand for me then we will (have a community model club),” Sabljak said. “We can’t single out kids that don’t want to play in the NPL. “We’re still deciding whether we keep the community club as Dandenong City Soccer Club and enter the NPL with a new name but that’s yet to be determined.” The club is also projecting a record number of junior players after 200 kids attended Dandenong City’s first junior training session for the year. Any interested kids are welcome to attend training on Wednesday and Friday nights, starting 6.30pm sharp at Frank Holohan Reserve, Baden Powell Drive, Endeavour Hills.

Mark Surtees was the star of the show for the Cougars in their big win over Moorabbin to cap off Ladies Day celebrations.

Cougars, claws out THE Berwick Cougars firsts closed out their final home game of the Victorian Summer League Baseball season in style on the weekend, destroying the Moorabbin Panthers on Ladies Day at Cyril Molyneux Reserve. The Ladies Day event is a celebration of all the women actively involved in the club during the week and on game days; and the mums, sisters, wives and girlfriends who have driven their brothers, sons and partners to training and supported them on game days throughout the season. The event is the main annual fund-raiser for the Cougars, which this year had more than 100 ladies come and enjoy the festivities that went on well into the night.

The Cougars firsts took care of business in style on the field, thrashing the Panthers 9-1. It was Berwick’s best defensive display of the season, with Mark Surtees a dominant presence. With seven of Berwick’s nine starters on the weekend under the age of 21, the future is definitely a bright one at Cougarland. Berwick will look to make the most of its winning momentum as the side’s season draws to a close this Saturday with an away game against Bonbeach.

GLENEAGLES College can now boast a Major League Baseball player as an alumnus with Lachlan Madden signing. A major league dream was brought a step closer to reality for Madden, with the 17-year-old pitcher becoming a Houston Astro. Madden heads to Florida at the end of March for his first official training session. As far as dreams go, Madden is pinching himself that his is starting to come true. “It’s all I’ve ever dreamed of,” Madden said. “Completely stoked - it’s a good organisation and good for building players up in the minor leagues, so I’m very happy.” The next challenge for Madden is to perform in the summer league season, stay fit and learn what it is to become a professional baseballer. “Hopefully one day get out onto the big league mound and throw a few innings for the Houston Astros, hopefully at a packed house - that’s the dream,” Madden said. “Just need to get my work in and learn how to play professional baseball, play every day of the week and learn to manage myself, so I’m pretty keen to get over for my first season.” More on Madden’s signing with the Astros is available in this week’s edition of the Pakenham-Berwick Gazette.

Lachlan Madden has signed with the Houston Astros, trading his Gleneagles College classroom for the spotlight of Major League Picture: JARROD POTTER Baseball. 114974

A Wade in the shallow end?

Matt Wade posted a halfcentury for Casey-South Melbourne in its clash against Frankston-Peninsula. 114977 Picture: JARROD POTTER

By JARROD POTTER VICTORIAN PREMIER CRICKET ROUND 17 (WEEK ONE) THE best efforts of former Australian Test wicketkeeper Matt Wade (73) wasn’t enough to drag Casey-South Melbourne (199) into a position of power against Frankston Peninsula (2/42). After the openers came and went without greatly troubling the scorers, younger tweaking all-rounder Lachlan Sperling (35) was joined at the crease by the Victorian captain and the pair add-

ed 105 for the third stand. The pairing was broken by Jake Wood (3/45) before Chris Hall (28) guided the last few batsmen to help post 199. Not content with his runs alone, Wade (1/5) rolled his arm over and found Michael McClean (19) trapped in front before affecting the run-out of Sam Wise (12) to finish the day on an all-round high. DANDENONG Dandenong Panthers posted their best effort of the new year, storming to 297 on the back of a Mick Sweeney (100) ton.

Coming in at number eight, Sweeney posted his first triple-figure score in Victorian Premier Cricket - including 14 boundaries and two sixes - to smash aside Northcote on day one of their round 17 clash. Tom Donnell (46) and James Wilcock (43) also performed well with the blade. Northcote (4/82) started its chase strongly with Marcus Stoinis (61) getting the ball rolling before James Nanopoulos (2/17) claimed the Melbourne Stars’ allrounder and brought advantage back to the Panthers.

Wright Shield is raised for victory RAISING the Neil Wright Shield for the ninth time, the Dandenong District Cricket Association’s (DDCA) Under 21 squad defeated the Eastern Cricket Association in the grand final on Sunday. The Eastern Cricket Association was restricted to 104 after Berwick’s Tanner Stanton (4/25), Narre Warren’s Nick Shirt (2/16) and Hallam Kalora Park spearhead Jordan Hammond (2/18) ran through the batting card on the cheap. The reply was anchored by Hallam Kalora Park’s Ben Hillard (59 not out), and Parkfield’s Jack Jones (22) as the association cantered home to win by five wickets. This is the ninth time that the DDCA has won this competition and the fourth time in

Bulls bashed in bizarre win By RUSSELL BENNETT WEST GIPPSLAND CRICKET ASSOCIATION - PREMIER WHILE Tooradin seamer Ash Adams rates last year’s premiership triumph over Merinda Park as the best win he’s ever been involved in, the Seagulls’ remarkable victory over the Bulls on the weekend is definitely the most bizarre. The two-dayer - over Saturday and Sunday due to the Country Week carnival - started with Tooradin winning the toss and electing to bat. The Gulls struggled early, slumping to 4/36 before a massive 191-stand between star all-rounder Cal O’Hare (113 not out) and upand-coming youngster Andrew Proctor (96) salvaged the innings. The side ultimately reached 6/263 in the 80 overs but struggled to score at a run a ball over the final 10. Cardinia’s chase the next day started promisingly with a half-century stand between the Nooys - Alex (17) and John (110). Despite a pair of uncharacteristically low scores from run machines Neil Barfuss (3) and Simon Parrott (7), the Bulls innings was kept on track by a huge stand between the skipper and Luke Turner (92). At 5/110 they were in trouble, but at 6/244 they looked home. That is until Adams (6/52) came back on to bowl. He made a mess of the Bulls’

lower order as the side crumbled for 256. He came away with a memorable hat-trick in the final three balls of the innings, securing an astonishing win for a Tooradin side still without two of its biggest stars - Aaron Avery and Tom Hussey. For the 25-year-old Adams who gave cricket away at the end of last year after playing his role in Tooradin’s premiership side - an appetite for more grand final glory remains. O’Hare tasked him with winning his place back in the Gulls’ Premier side earlier this season - it was far from assured. But Adams thinks it was the rocket he needed to perform. The scenes at Tooradin on Sunday were simply astonishing and Adams said he hadn’t seen as many people in the rooms since last year’s grand final. And the focus has now returned to trying to get that atmosphere back again. At Mountain Reserve in Cockatoo, Merinda Park recovered from a disastrous 3/8 start to post 236 on a bowler-friendly wicket against Emerald. Jess Mathers was the star of the show for the Cobras, posting a rapid-fire 87. But fans will already have one eye on Merinda Park’s cut-throat final round blockbuster against Cardinia in two weeks’ time.

and Ryan Quirk (Springvale South). Thanks from the association went out to Under 21 Coach Peter Lindsay, his assistant Greg Siwes and DDCA scorer Steve Richards, while also acknowledging the hard work of the City of Greater Dandenong for providing the venue for the grand final and preparing the wicket and to the Keysborough Cricket Club for hosting the event. The association also thanks the input of the three players who represented the league throughout the season - Dandenong West’s Walid Ghauri, Hallam Kalora Park’s Mitchell Cox and Mordialloc’s Tim Wighton.

Short-lived success By RUSSELL BENNETT THE West Gippsland Cricket Association has had a mixed start to its 2014 Country Week campaign, knocking off local rivals Warragul and District at Casey Fields on Monday but going down to Sunraysia in Werribee the following day. The WDCA won the toss and elected to bowl on the slow turf wicket of the Casey Fields #4 ground in game one, and the decision reaped almost immediate dividends with Warriors openers - and regular Pakenham combination Chris Smith (15) and Russ Lehman (11) both falling cheaply. The WGCA had a challenge ahead to rebound from a slow start in its first 15 overs but Jason Williams (27), Simon Parrott (40 not out) and skipper Cal O’Hare (65 not out) stepped up to the plate beautifully.

The Warriors selectors made a point of picking a side exceptionally deep in all-around talent, with plenty of firepower still in the sheds after 50 overs. But the WDCA attack kept it tight, as Gamini Kumara (1/31), Dale Weller (1/17) and teenage sensation Sam Batson (1/36) led the way. Defending 176 for victory, the Warriors burst out of the gates thanks to the devastating opening partnership of Jarrod Armitage (2/22) and Kyle Brooke (2/21). They each took two wickets as the WDCA collapsed to be 4/15. All-rounder Kumara (46) also impressed with the willow, while skipper Daniel Hamilton scored a valuable 26. But O’Hare was deadly with ball-inhand, finishing with 4/26 and claiming man of the match honours for his brilliant all-round effort.

Ben Parrott made his Country Week debut for the Warriors - playing alongside dad Simon for the first two matches of the week before Brent Murdoch joined the side. Sunraysia set the Warriors a target of 241 to win game two, but despite a strong start to the WGCA’s chase - at one stage 1/100 - they went down by 39 runs. Lehman made a strong half-century at the top of the order for the Warriors, while Williams and Chris Smith also stood tall with the bat. Armitage, Brooke and O’Hare meanwhile - continued their bowling form. At the time of going to print, the Warriors were about to begin their third game of the Country Week carnival, against Wangaratta at Elsternwick Park.

Heinz will have to fight for the right By JARROD POTTER

1118597-CB7-14

NARRE WARREN succumbs to likely relegation while Heinz Southern Districts will have to fight for its right to play finals. COOMOORA v NARRE WARREN BARRING a miraculous outright victory this round against Hallam Kalora Park, Narre Warren (152) will be relegated to Turf 2 following Coomoora’s (153) nervy, but successful chase. Paul Hill (43 not out) stepped up when the Roos needed him most, guiding the chase with help around him from Rahoul Pankania (30) and Luke Wenke (20). Narre defended its meagre tally admirably with Jarryd Straker (3/45) and Pramod Liyanagamage (3/40) reeling off 18 overs each while the economical workhorse was Kaushalya Weeraratne (1/30) from an impressive 21.2 overs. The Magpies chipped away at the Kangaroos’ batting attack, but couldn’t prise Hill from the crease. It boiled down to the last wicket stand between Hill and Chris Konings (12) to keep Coomoora above Narre Warren in Turf 1. The number 11 Konings held on to post a 37-run partnership that will go down in the club’s favourite lore. HALLAM KALORA PARK v HEINZ SOUTHERN DISTRICTS THE Cobras (153) were defanged by a Hallam Kalora Park (215) attack playing only for pride with finals out of the equation. Heinz could only muster a couple of relevant knocks with Matthew

most carried his bat as he batted to the eighth wicket after opening. Ryan Crawford (21) and Ryan Williamson (17) were next best for the Bears as Monto Perera (4/38) and Chathura Athukorala (3/43) tore through the attack. Berwick hosts North Dandenong to finish up the season this round at home.

GREATER Dandenong added another sport to its ever-burgeoning sports club list with the South Eastern Phoenix bringing a water polo presence to the city. The Phoenix, coached by Australian Stingers’ and Victorian Tigers’ player Elise Rossato, is based out of the Noble Park Aquatic Centre (NPAC) and president Daniel Di Manno said the club was proud to be in the facility and helping grow the sport in the region. “It’s been really, really enjoyable so far and there’s been a really good response from everyone,” Di Manno said. “This is ideal - an outdoor pool, it’s brand new, it’s deep enough and they (NPAC) are happy to have us here. “There’s a really broad range, in terms of the demographic of people in the area, so we just want as many people playing water polo.” Di Manno said the learning curve for the sport is relative easy and players can pick up the basics quickly. “It’s a unique sport - it’s one of those ones people aren’t necessarily aware of until they see it,” Di Manno

Luka Djordjevic tries his hand at water polo at the South Eastern Phoenix’s launch at Noble Park Aquatic Centre. 114980 Picture: JARROD POTTER said. “It’s a very basic sport to learn and a really safe sport to play.” The club hopes to enter a variety

of teams into this year’s Water Polo Victoria competition and host team trainings for Victorian and Austra-

lian level teams at NPAC, on top of running a number of sports and schools programs for teams and schools throughout Greater Dandenong and beyond. The Phoenix also want to become one of the premier sporting clubs, to show the capabilities of the sport to the local community. “Just want to see how high we could set the bar and to show not just water polo, but other local sporting clubs what can be achieved working with local government, councils, facilities and sporting bodies,” Di Manno said. “So we really do want to push the boundaries of what we’re doing with all the courses we’re running as well.” This year the Phoenix will also launch Australia’s first access all abilities program to help get even more people involved in water polo. For more information on joining the Phoenix, contact the club at info@southeasternphoenix.com or visit the web site www.southeasternphoenix.com.

Olive tall in sandbelt By JARROD POTTER DANDENONG Club Bowls Club member Olive Harris earned herself an impressive bowls title this week - as she is now known as a regional bowls champion of champions. Travelling around to Clayton, Hampton and Melbourne Bowls Clubs, Harris, from Endeavour Hills, swept the field of 42 clubs to stand tall as the region’s finest bowler. Harris won her five matches and earned the title of Bowls Victoria Sandbelt Region champion of champions. In the final held on Wednesday, Harris easily bested Desiree Macauley from Caulfield Park/Alma Bowls Club to take the championship with a 25-11 victory. Harris said she felt lucky to take the win, but was pleased to now have the title of champion of champions on her bowling achievements list.

“I think I was just lucky there when she couldn’t grab her weight - I was lucky, but it was nice,” Harris said. Her next big challenge will be in Bendigo in April to play all the other regional bowls champion of champions’ winners from around the state in a test to become Victoria’s supreme bowls maestro for 2014. “I think I’ll come up against some tough opposition, I think the other side of town has a lot of good players too,” Harris said. Harris has won the club’s competition singles back-to-back. Dandenong Club Bowls Club secretary Carol Coshutt said the win was an outstanding success for Olive and made the club exceptionally delighted. “We’re very proud of her and it’s a great achievement for her and recognition for our club as well,” Coshutt said.

Showcasing some of her champion of champions tournamentwinning skills, Dandenong Club Bowls Club member Olive Harris earned her spot in a state-wide tournament after winning her way through the Sandbelt region. 114975 Pictures: JARROD POTTER

Narre Warren hangs onto ladder rung NARRE WARREN BOWLS Tuesday Division One played at Vermont South in a game which doubled as an elimination final for both clubs which were fourth and fifth on the ladder. The prize for the winner was a place in the finals and the team from Narre was the winner on the day by just two shots. The rink of Graeme Manifold won by 23 shots to save the day with the other two rinks going down. Narre earned the right to play Burwood in a semi-final. S. Bell, W. Haringsma, J. Naughton and I. Brotherton 18/31. A. Mark, K. Mark, E. Gibb and G. Manifold 40/17. G. Gilchrist, E. VanMaanen, J. Green and J. Millar 18/23. Division Three finished the season on a high with a two shot win at Berwick, 60/58.

Two rinks were up and one down, a good season by the side finishing in fifth place on the ladder. N. Michaleff, A. Tobler, N. Pugh and M. Horton 15/24. J. Moran, P. Uren, C. Lapham and T. Henneman 22/16. S. Van Maanen, C. Pater, R. Pigdon and A. Kidd 23/18. Division Two travelled up the highway to play Berwick, who was desperate for a win as it was in line for relegation. A win to Narre would have it closer to a finals berth but a two shot loss, 73/75, sees the side remain in fourth position with one game to go. A win next week is a must if the side is to play finals. A. Mark, W. Haringsma, R. Lane and I. Brotherton 12/23. C. Lapham, P. O’Day, K. Mark and G. Manifold 18/18. S. Bell, A. Kidd, E. Luyters and J. Millar 22/17. L. Klarica, G. Cowan, R. Green and N. Bradley 21/17.

Division Three played host to SOC and although not in finals contention the side took the game right up to the visitors and were beaten by only nine shots, 70/79. Well down at the interval, the second half belonged to the home team. M. Horton, E. Vergara, B. Brewster and G. Miller 17/18. M. Graham, J. Sheahan, S. Robinson and D. Randall 19/17. G. Bowman, S. Birkett, K. Davis and N. Hosmer 23/21. J. Moran, G. Cadman, J. Zanon and J. Heathcote 11/23. Division Seven was at home to Moorabbin and desperate for a win which could give the team second place on the ladder. A close win in a cliff-hanger, by three shots, leaves the side just five points from second place but positions could change with second and fourth on the ladder to playing

each other next week. A. Fitt, R. Young, J. Hickman and R. Pigdon 26/12. L. O’Brien, S. Van Maanen, J. Green and L. Brown 11/18. D. Moore, G. Dodd, M. Duval and B. Fraser 25/16. N. Michaleff, R. Pompe, E. Van Mannen and J. Schwennensen11/24. Division Eight was away to Clayton and was victorious with a fine 20 shot win, 49/29. It was a good result for a team which has been decimated at times by a lack of players and a deal of inexperience. The side is in fifth spot with a very slim chance of making finals but the experience gained by the new players will be invaluable for the future. J. O’Day, P. Pater, J. Norman and A. Tobler 25/20. H. McCarthy, P. Rouse, B. Potter and R. Hoare 24/9.

Pandering to style lovers By EWAN KENNEDY

Italian designers have done an excellent job of making the Fiat Panda stand out from the small car crowd.

ITALIAN style makes the Fiat Panda stand out from the many conservative vehicles that are competing in the small car market in Australia. Panda’s stylists came up with a fascinating theme based around what they call a Squircle, that is squares rounded off by circular corners. The Fiat squircle is used on the exterior of the Panda to give what could have been a boxy vehicle a cute look. But it’s the numerous areas

inside - the instrument surrounds, steering wheel centre, door handles, speaker housing, drink holders, and more try to count them for yourself - that really takes the design out of the ordinary. The Panda comes in Fiat’s usual model range - base Pop, midrange Easy and topline Lounge. Fiat Australia is asking only $16,500, driveaway for the Pop with a manual gearbox. None of the others are driveaway so their prices in-

crease markedly. Then there’s an additional version called the Panda Trekking. It has the appearance of a small SUV big roof racks, bold door cladding, and raised ride height. Even the cheapest model Panda Pop gets the sophisticated Blue&Me system developed by Microsoft and Fiat that uses voice activation and synchronises with various music devices and smartphones. Tom-Tom navigation is an option and slips into a built-in slot on the dash. Interior space is excellent for a car of this di-

minutive size and four adults can travel with only minimal need to shift the front seats forward to make room for tall people in the back. To achieve this voluminous cabin the seats are set noticeably higher than in most other cars. This can feel slightly awkward at first, but you soon grow into the Panda. Handling is safe and secure, with these little cars able to hold onto the road at speeds much higher than would be expected for what is, after all, a small family car.

Honda dealer launches new year bonanza A NEW year can often mean thoughts turn to new cars. New World Honda at 6 Prestige Place in Narre Warren is the place to go for those who are looking for a new Honda. Dealer principal Cameron Bertalli said the business specialised in the sale of new cars along with demonstrator models and used Honda cars as well as vehicle servicing and the sale of Honda auto-

motive parts and accessories. Cameron said the dealership, operating for the past 10 years, had built up a strong reputation and was Honda Dealer Excellence Award winner in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 recognising the business’ performance and customer satisfaction in all areas. “We operate from modern spacious facilities and have long-serving factory

trained employees,” he said. “We are consistently achieving high customer satisfaction results. “New World Honda focuses on providing the best care at all times in all facets of our business, in particular sales and service.” He said staff was the secret of that success. “We have a very stable and experienced staff,” Cameron said. “The major-

ity have been here since the opening 10 years ago.” They are currently running a Honda Smart Start promotion - offering five year NWH warranty on all new cars sold. New World Honda is located at 6 Prestige Place, Narre Warren, and is open Monday to Saturday from 8am to 6pm. For further information phone 8794 0000.

Bruce Cooper, Mike Tran, Steve Brown, Kon Kouskoudis and Tonia James are ready to welcome customers. 113481
