Albury Wodonga’s largest circulating newspaper

Youth make it one to remember They may be young, but they certainly have a lot to give. As this week marks National Youth Week, the Border's own are making sure it's one to remember as well as trying to make a positive difference.

There is an alternative

Honour delivered By ERIN SOMERVILLE AFTER 90 years, the Albury War Memorial is finally complete. The monument that looks over the city of Albury received its final touch yesterday morning with the installation of a Cross of Sacrifice and memorial plaque. Although the monument was designed in 1923, a shortage of public funding meant the bronze cross could not be included for the 1925 opening. Now, only a few days short of the 100th anniversary of the Anzac Gal-

lipoli Landing, the memorial for Albury and district servicemen is now complete. It was a moment that left City of Albury RSL Sub-Branch President Graham Docksey very proud and excited. “It just completes the job that wasn’t done when it opened. “We’re ecstatic, this is something that needed to be done.” The project is worth $11,000 and was funded through a Federal Anzac Centenary grant.

Mr Docksey was able to see the cross erected before he headed to Turkey tomorrow to attend Anzac ceremonies at Gallipoli. This will be his 18th occasion at Gallipoli, but he says it is something he looks forward to every time. “It’s special at Gallipoli every year,” he said. “Standing there among the crowd when they are singing the national anthems for all three countries - Australia, Turkey, and New Zealand – make you proud to be Australian.”

The cross will be maintained by AlburyCity. Mayor Kevin Mack said it was a great moment to see the latest addition to the city’s well-known memorial installed. “It’s really important that we maintain this legacy,” he said. “I encourage all residents to come up for the dawn service and spend the day celebrating 100 years of the Anzac landing and that it’s passed on to the next generations.”

LOCAL media has itself been in the media recently due to the announcement of significant numbers of redundancies at the Border Mail. There have been plenty of local identities willing to weigh into the debate about the changes, calling for locals to support the Border Mail. But at a time when Fairfax has decided to further consolidate and centralise its newsrooms and other functions, local advertisers and readers do have an alternative and an alternative with local ownership. The NewsWeekly was begun in this region by a group of businesspeople six years ago to provide a free alternative at a time when paid circulations were declining. The NewsWeekly provides truly local news and information without syndication. Today the NewsWeekly is majority owned by a family newspaper company, Star News Group, which has a history of 105 years, and the remaining shareholders are local businesspeople. The NewsWeekly can continue to grow its local content with the support of local advertisers to become the region's premier local news provider. “The NewsWeekly, started by locals, continues to service the region as the only free weekly local newspaper,” Star’s managing director Paul Thomas said. “We’d like to call on local advertisers to support the NewsWeekly more to ensure this region is well serviced by local free media. “With the NewsWeekly’s free delivery and continued web presence, local news can be consumed from a variety of sources as it breaks and offer advertisers an excellent way to reach local readers. “As paid circulations continue to decline with more syndicated news and less local news, free papers are becoming even more vital to their local communities.“

Young people are making quite a racket By ERIN SOMERVILLE

The Youth Council's Alex Ward and Ben Walther, Sophie Cochrane from the Youth Council and Retro Youth Committee, and Retro Youth Committee members Oscar Dean, Jeremy PIcture: ERIN SOMERVILLE Pretious and Nathan Brookes. 137575

Do you support parents being penalised for not immunising their children? Karen Burton: Yes and no. I am pro immunisation and can’t understand why any parent would choice not to immunize their child (except for valid medical reasons), however if it’s optional then you can't penalize a parent for exercising their right to choose. Either make it compulsory or make it optional. No grey areas. Claire Greenhalgh: The government give out 'support' (money and services) to ensure the community funtions acceptably (remains safe). Why should they be

’supporting’ individual parents that are increasing the risk of serious illness? Would you provide money and support to a parent that actively promotes activites that could “lead to“ child abuse? ... think about it .... they aren't promoting child abuse, so they are ok. It’s about the situation that our children are in. It’s about keeping them safe from SERIOUS risk. This “penalty“ is completely appropriate!

MEET some of the Border’s youth. They’re enthusiastic, passionate about making a difference and are gearing up for this week’s National Youth Week celebrations. With events like Addicted to Acoustic and today’s Gindaymannah Sports Carnival, young people on the Border are being encouraged to come together and celebrate all that’s great about being a young person while making sure their voice is heard. Retro Youth Committee member Sophie Cochrane, who has helped co-ordinate some Youth Week activities with other members, said there will be a particular focus on youth mental health as part of this year’s celebrations. “This has been helped by Headspace opening up (on Monday),” she said. “We are probably not the

“Previous Addicted to Acoustic events have showcased some amazing local talent as well as a great community turn out to support our performers. We are absolutely ecstatic to see what 2015 has to offer.” To enter the competition please contact Amanda Wilson on (02) 6023 8295 or 0409 468 848 or e-mail mwilson@alburycity.nsw.gov.au. This year’s competition will be held on Friday 17 April at the Albury Library Museum from 5pm. There are four categories - Solo performers aged 12-17, Groups 12-17, Solo 1824 and Groups 18-24. Each act performs one song and the event is judged by local music and industry professionals. The winner in each category will win $250 in prize money. Entry is free and applications will be made available at Albury City’s customer service department.

best cross-section of youth because we are very involved, but a lot of young people don’t feel like there is anything for them to do or feel important. “They then feel disenfranchised and disempowered which encourages mental health issues.” Albury City is on the hunt for singer songwriters to join in Fridays’ Addicted to Acoustic celebrations as part of Youth Week. This will be the third annual acoustic event, which has proved popular with the Border’s young people in the past. Both Albury and Wodonga residents are encouraged to come along and join in the Youth Week fun. “We’ve got some incredibly talented young people in Albury,” said Albury City’s Youth Development Officer Amanda Wilson. “It’s a great opportunity for young people to develop their skills performing to a live audience.”

Speed streets: slow change ALBURYCITY’S ‘no sign, no brainer’ campaign has had mixed results, with a reduction in speeding in only three of the five targeted streets. During the six-week campaign, the number of motorists detected speeding in East Street, Vickers Road and Douglas Road dropped, however there was a slight increase in Watson Street and Logan Road. The five roads were nominated by local residents concerned at the number of vehicles travelling too fast in their neighbourhoods. The campaign involved additional police patrols and speed enforcement

resulting in 47 speeding infringements issued, with two motorists nabbed for travelling at more than 45km/h over the posted limit. AlburyCity Mayor Kevin Mack said while it was pleasing to see a reduction in speeding in some areas, he’s disappointed that Watson Street and Logan Road remain speeding ‘hot spots’. “We’ll continue to work with local police in targeting these streets with enforcement and the mobile speed board," he said. “Just because the current campaign has finished doesn’t mean we are - this is an ongoing concern for many residents

across all parts of Albury. “We’ve also scheduled additional line marking along Logan Road, Douglas Road and East Street and will review signage in all streets to assist with traffic calming.“ AlburyCity Road Safety Officer Lauren Torocsik said speeding remained a huge issue across Albury and unfortunately the consequences of driving too fast appeared to be falling on deaf ears. “We will continue to work in partnership with the police to tackle speeding in our streets and hopefully reduce the impact of crashes resulting from motorists driving too fast.”

Speeding is still a problem on some of Albury's targeted streets. 137610 Picture: ADAM WILSON

Headspace shows the way By ERIN SOMERVILLE IN JUST three months, Albury Wodonga headspace has already helped 233 local young people. The youth mental health foundation was officially opened on Monday, which is already earning its keep on the Border through the number of 16 to 25-year-olds accessing its services. Centre manager Bek Nash-Webster said the service would only continue to grow and evolve over time. “The community and young people will drive us to where we need to be,” she said. “It will be based on the needs of young people coming through the door.” While the centre has been publicly open since January 12, Monday’s event saw the centre officially opened by Minister for Health Sussan Ley, headspace Ceo Chris Tanti, GatewayHealth CEO Leonard Peady, and headspace independent chair Di Thomas. As part of the opening events, Border resident Sarah Negrin shared her experience of bat-

High speed car impounded A CAR has been impounded after the driver was caught speeding at 158km/h on the Murray Valley Highway. Wodonga Highway Patrol detected the Cudgewa man travelling at the high speeds at Ebden on Sunday morning just before 9am. The vehicle was impounded at Wodonga and the man will appear in court. “We are very disappointed people are putting their own lives and the other lives at risk by travelling at such high speeds,” Wodonga Highway Patrol Acting Sergeant Burdett said.

THE effects of domestic violence can continue to hit long after the victim has fled their home. The Nappy Collective is an initiative helping many parents that are escaping family violence, and has continued to highlight the extent of the problem on the Border. The movement, which began in Melbourne in 2013, provides parents who have been forced to leave home with nappies to help cover basic family needs at a time when help is most needed. During the last Nappy Collection run in Albury, around 15,000 nappies were provided to anonymous women on the Border fleeing their home. Many of these women had left their home with children and little supplies. “When women make the decision to leave it is quite often lastminute,” Nappy Collective Albury co-ordinator Sophie Richards said. “They will often turn up with nothing but the clothes on their back.” Nappies can be costly, with a newborn requiring 10 to 12 nappies a day, and toddlers can require six to eight per day. Families with limited incomes may have to choose between clean nappies and other basic needs such as food for themselves. The initiative has highlighted in the past the extent of the family violence problem on the Border, and Ms Richards expects it will again be heavily utilised this year by local victims. The Nappy Collective will be seeking donations of clean, disposable nappies from 1 to 15 May. “Every nappy counts.

Sophie Richards, Josh Mahony and baby Jobe Mahony donate some spare nappies to help ease the Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE pressure on victims of domestic violence with young families. 137413 “Even if you only have one that your child has grown out of, they can still be out together with others of that size and make a day’s or week’s supply.” The nappies collected are distributed to local organisations within each collective city that support families in crisis or in need such as women’s crisis shelters and refuges, mothers facing homelessness, parenting support organisations and community organisations. To assist, email thenappycollective@gmail.com or visit http://

which include: Albury Library/ Museum, Salts of the Earth Albury, Lavington Library, Wodonga Library and Little Me Market.

Autism correction ALBURY Wodonga News Weekly incorrectly stated that the recent Regional Australian Autism Support Network’s event for World Autism Day was the organisation’s first event for this occasion, when, in fact, it is their third. Funds will be going to helping support local families. Albury Wodonga News Weekly apologises for any confusion or offence caused by the mistake.

Got a great idea for a name for the square in Junction Place?

Wodonga Council is seeking community feedback on the naming of an important and prominent site in our city, currently known as Urban Square. This square, which fronts Elgin Boulevard and High St (see map) is part of Junction Place and needs a name of its own which helps identify it as a great gathering place in Wodonga’s CBD. If you feel inspired, submit your suggestion by Monday, April 20 at 5pm to info@wodonga.vic.gov.au, by posting this form back to the council or dropping it into our offices at 104 Hovell St. Please remember there are guidelines which need to be followed. They can be read in full at dtpli.vic.gov.au and searching for ‘naming features’. These refer to language, recognising public interest, linking the name to a place, using commercial and business names and commemorative naming. The site won’t be named in honour of anyone past or present, and can’t be the same or similar to an existing site in Wodonga. The suggestions will go to Wodonga Council’s Place Names Committee which will shortlist the entries before they are put back out for public consideration. A vote will be considered in determining the final name, but will not be the only factor. We look forward to your suggestions.

More breast testing set By ERIN SOMERVILLE A MOVE to expand breast screening invitations to women over the age of 70 has been welcomed by breast cancer support services on the Border. Minister for Health Sussan Ley last week announced the launch of the ‘An invitation that could save your life’ campaign to make sure all Australian women aged 50 to 74 were aware they qualified for a free breast screen every two years. Ms Ley said the additional screening delivered as a result of the campaign could potentially lead to the detection of an extra 600 breast cancers a year. Gateway Health’s McGrath Breast Care Nurse Jodie Hart commonly treats women over 70 for breast cancer, and says the $55.7 million initiative is a positive step to catching the cancer early. “Often you get comments from those over 70 saying that they thought they weren’t at risk because they weren’t being invited back to BreastScreen,” Ms Hart said. “That sends out the wrong message to a lot of women who think they don’t have to worry anymore. “It’s still important to get checked, early detection can

Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE be life-saving.” While women under 40 and over 74 will not be included in receiving BreastScreen reminders, they can still make appointments at BreastScreen. Ms Hart said it was important for women, regardless of their age, to be “breast aware”. The includes being familiar with your breasts and noticing any changes that aren’t normal, such a lump or thicker tissue, a rash, a change in nipple shape, or even discharge. Minister Ley says the multimillion dollar campaign that will see an additional 220,000 BreastScreens each year is worthwhile. “Breast screening saves lives,” she said. “It is the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths among women in Aus-

tralia, however if detected early and managed, nine out of 10 cases can be successfully treated.” “BreastScreen Australia has been extremely successful since it was introduced more than 20 years ago, having reduced the number of breast cancer deaths by over a third. More than 1.8 million women are screened every two years and more than 75 per cent of breast cancers occur in women over 50. Most women who get breast cancer also have no family history. Women aged outside of the 50 to 74 age group are encouraged to talk to their GP or health professional to find out if breast screening is appropriate for them.

Small is beautiful on screen A FORMER Albury resident is helping lead the charge in proving that good things come in small packages. Jeremy Beasley, who was a student at Albury’s Xavier High School, has directed the documentary ‘Small is Beautiful’, which follows four people from the USA as they build their own tiny houses in pursuit of a mortgage-free lifestyle and discover that living tiny is about so much more than just the house. Armed only with his DSLR and field sound recording kit, Mr Beasley, who now resides in Melbourne, has eased himself into the most intimate of scenarios to capture fascinating human stories. Upon discovering the tiny house world, Mr Beasley’s first impulse was to design and build

A gift for living

If you’re aged 50-74 you’ll be sent a free bowel cancer screening kit. The kit is simple to use and can detect bowel cancer before any symptoms appear. Around 80 Australians die of bowel cancer every week, but if detected early, up to 90% of cases can be successfully treated. So be sure to complete and return your kit. It’s a gift that could save your life. If you’re over 74 talk to your GP. By 2020 people aged 50-74 will receive a kit every two years.

A new way of learning awaits

AT Albury Wodonga Community College, it’s always a great time to make a positive change in your life. Mid year intakes are now open and the college is welcoming those looking to make 2015 a year to remember. If you are thinking of studying, looking to upskill, develop better employment opportunities, or are simply just seeking a change, then the Albury Wodonga Community College encourages you to explore

their great courses. The college will be holding two information nights in May and June for those interested in a career path in Early Childhood Education and Care, Aged Care, Community Care, Community Services Work, and working in disabled ﬁelds. One of Albury Wodonga Community College’s strengths is its ties with the community and potential employers, enabling students to make a quick transition into the

workplace through skills, knowledge, and networks. Best of all, the small and intimate classes at Albury Wodonga Community College mean students get to make the most of their time. “We keep our classes smaller than most other providers, which means that there is a real period of oneon-one time with trainers,” said Albury Wodonga Community College General Manager Anna Speedie. The smaller classes allow

trainers to identify students’ key learning needs and abilities, creating successful industry experience matches, which regularly lead to employment. With 40 years experience in equipping Border residents with ﬁrstclass vocational training, the team certainly knows how to create the most desirable candidates for employment. “We employ highly skilled and knowledgeable staff so that we can

offer our students the best trainers and resources,” Ms Speedie said. It’s never too late or too difﬁcult to make a difference through Albury Wodonga Community College.

Albury fought above its weight By ERIN SOMERVILLE ALBURY may have only been a small town 100 years ago, but it sure pulled its weight in the war effort. The impact Albury had on World War I will be examined in the LibraryMuseum’s new exhibition ‘The Trumpet Calls’. Opening on Saturday, only days before the commemoration of 100 years since the Anzac Gallipoli Landing, the informative and interactive exhibit will explore conditions on the battlefield, life in Albury on the home front, and role of women and Indigenous Australians during the Great War. “This exhibition is about national and international involvement with the Great War, but also providing those local stories and different perspectives that affected the whole community on the ground,” Museum and Social History Co-ordinator Bridget Guthrie said. ‘This is a chance to bring the Great War to life.” This will be enhanced through the use of augmented reality; an app that will bring as-

pects of the exhibition to life on smart devices. There will be many local treasures on display as part of this exhibition, including a tunic and medals awarded to Albury soldier Sergeant George Bishop, a self-portrait of Victoria Cross recipient Captain Albert Borella, a portion of a gunsight from one of the Albury Battery guns inscribed ‘Noreuil 2-4-17’, and a medal presented to Mrs Mary Watson of Gerogery East by the Prime Minister William Morris Hughes for her work at the YMCA Theatre in London during the war. Those from surrounding regions have also been included in the exhibition, with more great memorabilia including a memorial plaque for Private Richard Wesley Wong who was a blacksmith of Beechworth, a diary written by Private Harry Derrick who was a Tallangatta Valley farmer, and a Christmas card from Matron Alice Prichard to Mrs Watson written from the Australian Hospital on Lemnos Island. The exhibition also includes an ‘experiential’ replica bunker,

which aims to provide a small insight into the conditions of war from an Albury perspective. This re-creation is a depiction of the dugout occupied by Lieutenant Colonel Joseph Shellshear, an Albury doctor, when he commanded the 4th and 5th Artillery Brigades during the battle of Menin Road June 1917. The Trumpet Calls has been created with the help of the 8/13th Victorian Mounted Rifles Museum in Bandiana, and through grants from AlburyCity and the Anzac Centenary local grants program. As part of the exhibition opening, local military historian Douglas Hunter will be unveiling his book ‘Albury at War’, which explores the role of women and those helping the war effort in the local area. The book took Mr Hunter and a dedicated team 18 months to research, and four months to write. Read about some of the great stories Mr Hunter uncovered for his book in next week’s special souvenir Anzac edition of Albury Wodonga News Weekly.

Letters Voice of the voiceless I WISH to add some truth to a topic which that was written in issue number 276 (NewsWeekly, 8 April) on page 4 titled “Need is building". I will not use the words “I believe” as in this case I know from much experience, directly and indirectly. The theme highly suggests that employers are unable to find apprentices or workers for their particular trade. I myself have been searching for an apprenticeship for over five years in any trade. I am a second year heavy diesel light vehicle mechanic and have spent the last five years doing various trade related labouring positions. Also with this I know many others in the same position as myself in varying ages, myself 26. From my talks with Centrelink job service providers, employers, tradespeople, industry advisers and many more, the theme is definitively the employers’ unwillingness to put on apprentices. The young ones are cheap but it’s also hard to find one with work ethic and reliability. The mature age like myself are too expensive and also occasionally of poor quality, much like the younger ones. The employers are not interested in putting in any effort to employ someone who would fit their criteria but would rather go elsewhere to employ someone who will work for less and is easily disposable. I myself have rung every

big building company and asked for a list of contractors who I can ring along with applying for every internet and newspaper advertised position. Along with reverse marketing when on the many job worksites I visit. With completed pre-apprenticeship, on the job experience, my own reliable transport, excellent references, and an extensive trade labouring history. The hardest part is getting an interview. Not even getting one chance in the last five years with all these attributes does not point to a shortage, if willing applicants are suitable. It points to a generation of employers not looking to put in or contribute to the community that gave them their business. A generation of employers that would prefer saving money and hiring a cheaper disposable employee from another state even, that which when disposed of stay local and add to the unemployed. I’ve heard too many times both from employers themselves and the unfortunate people that many first year apprentices are used for cheap labour for the first year then let go. And in some cases employers are reaping the benefits and subsidies available. I’m in short disappointed in the misrepresentation of hundreds of willing, reliable workers “our own community" houses. We are the little voice of many overpowered by the voice of those who believe they are many. Anthony, (name and address supplied).

selves endeavouring to supply as much information as possible to help the collector.

Passion for stormchasing By ERIN SOMERVILLE

Lightning over Albury Wodonga. 137470 The pair have also had close encounters with being caught outdoors when hail has hit. But for all the occasionally tense moments, the rewards for storm loving Cody has paid off. He lists seeing a dust devil on the way to Wagga Wagga, seeing 11 lightning strikes at once from Bethanga lookout, and a funnel appearing briefly above Peregrines last week as highlights. Cody’s ultimate goal is to witness a tornado. But in the meantime, when the weather is calm, he enjoys the support he receives from Wodonga Flexible Learning Centre in pursuing his passion for photography and storms.

zone when the perfect storms hit. “The first thing is safety, we try to avoid hail storms, it’s not good for the car. “You can usually tell if there is hail if there are green or black clouds.” But despite their caution, the occasional close calls and adrenaline rushes occur. A spring thunderstorm last year in Albury proved particularly memorable. “We were near the Lauren Jackson stadium near the intersection and I had to duck because lightning hit a power pole about 50 metres behind the vehicle,” Ms Hensel said. “You could feel it in the car.”

THE Riverina may not bring the full force of Tornado Alley on a stormy day, but for one local family it’s become their rewarding stormchasing playground. Albury teenager Cody Hensel-Blockley grew up in awe of the strong storms that would ravish the Howlong countryside around his home. In 2010, he picked up his mum’s camera, snapped a picture of the storm that was currently overhead, and hasn’t looked back. Now following storm cells across the Riverina, with the help of his mother Melissa Hensel, who drives him along, the duo are committed to following storms in the area and capturing their dark and powerful nature. You may have seen some of his work on his Facebook page Southern Riverina Storms, which has gained hundreds of likes. “I keep an eye on BoM (Bureau of Meteorology) and Weatherzone,” Cody said. Having learnt to better understand clouds and storms through study over the years, the pair usually are in the right

Parched Border worry By ERIN SOMERVILLE FARMERS are hoping for more consistent rain towards the end of autumn as last week’s falls failed to quench the dry conditions. So far, the season has only seen 18.2mm of rainfall reach the Border, according to data collected by the Bureau of Meteorology at Albury airport as of Monday morning. Corowa farmer and NSW Farmer’s Cattle chair Derek Schone said farmers were hoping to start seeing wetter conditions as April moved along. “We need rain anytime from now,” he said. “In the southern Riverina and on the Murray it (last week’s

rainfall) was very patchy. “We only got 6mm at Corowa.” While the country on the Border is still in need of rain, Mr Schone said it wasn’t unusual for conditions to stay so dry this late into autumn in the area. “This happens a lot from November through to mid April,” he said. ‘We had falls in January that gave us a bit of growth but we don’t have much of that left now.” Meanwhile, rain and showers delivering up to 10mm have been forecast for later this week, with farmers hoping it will be the start of their autumn break.

Fitness to whole new level A RECENT fitness industry survey showed that 27 per cent of the total adult population attended a gym, fitness centre, or health club, and 61 per cent of regular exercisers are doing gym-type activities, ranking higher than any other fitness activity including walking, team sports, cycling, running or swimming members. Fitness 24 Seven is locally owned and operated, with three clubs conveniently located across the Border region with over 3000 members and more than 50 employees. “A professional, highly trained team who are dedicated to helping members change their lives and reach their individual fitness goals,” Fitness 24 Seven Regional manager Emily McQuilton said. “With convenient club locations, personal training services, innovative group exercise classes and a wide variety of strength, cardio and functional training equipment, Fitness 24 Seven offers innovative fitness solutions for everyone. “Our memberships start at only $11.95 per week, making our clubs affordable and accessible to people of all abilities and fitness levels. “Our clients want to be

around like-minded people of the same age. “When it comes to exercise, they want to get in, get results and get out. They’re looking for short workouts and bang for their buck. “They don’t want to hang around in the weights room, or spend long and boring hours on cardio equipment. “They want somewhere where they can show up and have someone push them hard without having to think about it- they need someone else to do the motivation work for them.” The new spectacular lighting effects coming soon to Fitness 24 Seven will be taking group exercise classes to a whole new level. Very soon Fitness 24 Sev-

Results, and then some THE Wodonga Sports and Leisure Centre has launched its new Results Plus functional training zone featuring the calorie-smashing YMCA Adrenaline program and Les Mills Grit Cardio. The YMCA Adrenaline program is a work-out built around small group, high intensity training sessions. Its main focus is on functional training - that is, working with the body movements we use in everyday life to improve speed, strength, power, balance, flexibility and agility. Functional training leads to better joint mobility and stability as well as decreasing the potential for injury during athletic endeavours. YMCA Health and Fitness Guru Matt Frost explains: “Adrenaline is targeted towards 18 to 45-year-olds who have the desire to exercise but lack the motivation. Their goals are often weight loss and to increase fitness. Adrenaline is geared towards individual performance-based goals, allowing participants of all levels to push themselves to their limits.” Adrenaline is built on a coachteam session rather than the traditional class format, led by an instructor. It is more a personal training session, conducted in a small group format. The emphasis is more on

coaching; motivating and drawing out the best performance in each participant, as opposed to just verbal and practical demonstration. The Results Plus functional training zone features 10 sessions per week, with both morning and evening classes, with kettlebell classes soon to be added to the timetable. Contact the YMCA to give it a try. The centre has launched a new Adrenaline Zone Facebook page to support the new functional training space.

The Wodonga Sports and Leisure Centre boasts state-of-the-art equipment.

Pants Down Circus is a creative, vibrant and highly skilled ensemble working together to produce new, exciting and spectacular work without taking itself too seriously. This is the second show from this independent, Australian circus company. The four-person troupe formed in 2011 as a way to showcase their many individual and ensemble skills. Pants Down won the Best Circus award at the 2012 Melbourne Fringe and came second out of 900-plus shows for the People’s Choice award at the 2013 Adelaide Fringe. Pants Down Circus Rock is set to a pumping classic rock soundtrack with a wide range

of circus acts from trapeze and acrobatics to juggling and hula hoops. It is a show that is sure to entertain every audience member, whether you like death-defying stunts, incredible displays of strength and agility or just plain silly nonsense. “There are four of us in the show - I’m the acrobat and equilibrist, which is the term used for someone who balances on things. I balance on a ladder, I rock it back and forth to keep the balance and climb through the rungs and do flips off it. It’s hard to describe, so it’s probably best to just come and see it live!” performer Joshua Phillips said. The show was inspired by classic rock music like Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, AC/DC and the showmanship that goes along with concerts of that calibre. “Big spectacle concerts, but we’ve replaced the band playing the music with circus artists

performing highly-skilled acts. “Mixed in among the circus acts there are moments where the ‘roadies’ take to the stage to set and strike equipment the circus way.” “I’ve been a professional circus performer for nearly 10 years. I wasn’t a co-ordinated kid but once I learnt how to juggle when I was 15 it was a stepping stone to learning other circus skills like tumbling and acrobatics.” Show information Duration: 55 minutes, no interval Date: Friday, April 17 Time: Matinee at 10.30 and evening show at 6pm Cost: Adults at children’s prices $21, The Cube Wodonga member $18. Members can bring three guests at member prices to this performance Bookings: Tickets available by phone, in person or online

The Longest Ride Rated: (M) Length: 128 mins THE Longest Ride proves once again that Nicholas Sparks’ films never stray far from the formula. A love story told from the perspective of a dying man? Check. Clunky interweaving storylines? Check. Boy meets girl and it’s always a huge dilemma before they realise they should be together? It’s all there. We start by meeting former bull-riding champion Luke (Scott Eastwood) and typical hard-working artsy student

Sophia (Britt Robertson) who fall in love, despite both having different paths in life to follow. Of course. As the ridiculously goodlooking couple ponder their future together, they buckle in for a clumsy flashback from an elderly Ira (Alan Alda), who recalls his decades-long romance with his wife that stood the test of time. Think some of these cardboard characters and dilemmas sound familiar? Keep in mind this guy brought you The Notebook, A Walk to Remember, Dear John, and The Last Song, so you basically have an idea of what you’re

walking into before the opening titles even start. There are some cheesy and cringe-worthy moments, but the actors actually manage to pull the predictable lines off. Robertson and Eastwood don’t lack chemistry, but it’s Jack Huston as the young and awkward Jewish Ira, and the gorgeous Oona Chaplin as his wife that steal the show and unintentionally makes their love story the most interesting of the film. If you’re after a romantic fix, this will be perfect, proving once again that in a Sparks universe, sparks will always fly. - Erin Somerville

Enzo Raimondo CEO Real Estate Institute of Victoria

Spoilt for choice WHILE attention has focused on the affordable attractions of regional Victoria for families on a budget and first home buyers, cities and towns across the state offer an enormous variety of homes. From weatherboard cottages to two and three-level bluestone buildings crafted more than a century ago, new housing estates to elegant heritage-protected mansions, the breadth of choice is reflected in the range of selling prices. And while private sale is by far the most common means of selling a home in regional Victoria, auction is becoming more popular and a substantial proportion of homes in the top price bracket are selling at auction. Many of these higher-priced sales were recorded in late 2014. In the December quarter of last year, 29 of the 1439 house sales across regional Victoria sold for more than $1 million. They accounted for $45,229,000 of the $525,810,833 worth of property sold. Eleven were sold at auction or before, the rest were private sales. The highest price reported to REIV was $3,500,000 for a home in Greenhills Road, Bellarine. And, in the first three months of this year, preliminary figures show that 30 of the 944 house sales were for more than $1 million. In total, they were worth $42,912,000. Fourteen of those were sold at, before or after auction, while the rest were private sales. The highest price reported to REIV so far is $2,450,000

for a home sold by private sale in New Gisborne. It’s not surprising that most of those properties were in some of regional Victoria’s most sought-after locations. For example, in the final three months of last year, a Spring Hill home sold for $1,850,000, a Cherokee home in the Macedon Ranges municipality sold for $1,300,000, a home in Bellarine sold for $3.5 million and one in Ballarat central for $3 million. There were several other sales of more than $1 million in the Macedon Ranges and in-demand Ocean Grove and Wallington. Prices also topped $1 million for homes in White Hills, near Bendigo, Strathdale, also in central Victoria, and Nagambie, Gisborne and Lake Tyers Beach - as did the sale price of an apartment on Geelong’s waterfront. At the other end of the scale, a home sold for $56,000 in Tatura, one for $60,000 in Walwa and another for $70,000 in Piangil. So far this year the homes fetching the highest prices have been in similar areas to last year - including the Surf Coast and Macedon Ranges - often commanding sea or bush views. This year too, the price range is wide - from just over $50,000 in the state’s outer west and north, to more than $2 million closer to Melbourne’s CBD - illustrating that, as in Melbourne, the regional Victorian housing market offers choices for buyers at all levels.

Local Sport Thunder rumbles on in ALBURY Thunder has rumbled its way back into a new season of Group Nine rugby league, taking out a 12-point victory at their homeground on Sunday over Cootamundra Bulldogs. The home team trailed 16-10 at half-time, before they fought back to defeat the Bulldogs 38-26. The win will put the Thunder, who will be defending their premier title this season, in good stead as they face Gundagai Tigers this weekend at Anzac Park- a team which is consistently strong on their home turf. Meanwhile, the Reserves rolled the Bulldogs after failing to let the visitors score in the Burmeister Shield, walking away with a 36-0 victory.

JOINING a sports team can be a rewarding experience for any child. With registration for the 2015 Junior Saturday Netball Competition opening this weekend, the committee is encouraging all young players with a passion or interest in the game to join in the season. Albury Netball Association President Catherine Trinnick said there were so many benefits young people could take away from playing the game, besides just the physical. “Fun is the number one reason cited by most of the young girls in playing - they don’t realise its a great way to get fit and healthy at the same time,” she said. “Most of them meet new friends when joining a team, which is also beneficial in broadening their social circle outside of school. “They learn about working together for common goal, fair play and gain invaluable confidence.” Last year 26 teams, or 230 players, joined in the Saturday Netball Competition, with an extra 70 younger players joining in the NetSetGO program to help build skills for the game. Beginners as young as five years are welcome and encouraged, and can also join in NetSetGO, which incorporates skill activities, minor games, music, dance and modified matches in a fun and safe environment. The weekly program is coordinated by accredited coaches to ensure a quality experience for all participants. To register, visit J.C. King park on Saturday 18 April from 9.30 to 10.30am. For more information, email alburynetball@ bigpond.com, phone 0412 148 008, or simply turn up on the morning.

Border riders shine in Wagga by CRAIG McMILLANBENDED ELBOW CYCLING TEAM A LARGE contingent of Border cyclists made the journey to Collingullie last Sunday to compete in the fourth round of the Tour of the Riverina Series, the annual 68km Butch Menz Memorial road race. With a field of over 60 riders heading out in handicapped groups on an undulating out and back course, Border riders enjoyed success in the tight finish, taking out five of the top 10 spots. With riders of all abilities, ages and fitness levels catered for in the handicapping system, groups are set off at intervals, with the race often coming together in the closing stages for a fast finish. Border riders were well represented in all groups, with the most pleasing aspect being the growth in numbers of riders from the region forcing the pace on the Scratch and Block starting marks. Wagga Wagga rider Peter Tre-

loar had personal motivation on the day with the opportunity to pay respect to family friend Butch Menz, scorching to an impressive hometown win in his event. Riding from the scratch mark Peter narrowly held out fellow scratch rider, the fast improving Declan Gregory of the Bended Elbow Cycling Team in a tight finish. As the series leader, Treloar was a heavily marked rider in the last 3km, but a mix of experience and power had him bursting to the front to claim the win in the last 150m. First woman across the line was taken out by Leanne Kennedy. The Bended Elbow Racing Team had a solid day out, with Craig McMillan in fourth behind Declan, closely followed by Matt Hamblin in 9th, with Jacod Hannah sixth and Terry Halpin 10th rounding out the Border placings. Development riders Declan, Gerard Wild and Charly McMillan all performed well, with the region's best riders off the back marks and continue to show im-

The local junior netball competition is rewarding for hundreds of young local players. 137585

Polo shows its class By ERIN SOMERVILLE THE Albury Holbrook Polocrosse Club proved once again why its among the luckiest in Australia after hosting some first-class competition over the weekend right on its doorstep. While the Australian World Cup Squad and the PAA team battled it

out at the Albury Wodonga Equestrian Centre on Saturday, this was just a snippet of the equine action on the Border over the weekend. The club also proudly welcomed the Australian Polocrosse Junior Classic and Silver Stirrup Ladies Open events to compete on the Border. A whopping 74 teams headed to the

annual event which drew competitors from Queensland, Victoria, Western Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom and the USA. Event secretary Elissa Koch said the Thurgoona-based equestrian centre has been popular with competitors ever since it began hosting the annual junior competition in 2005.

“We have one of the top facilities in Australia,” she said. And their reputation has proven so, with the facility hosting the Australian Polocrosse Nationals in April next year. In conjunction with the Junior Classic Championships, the Silver Stirrup Ladies Polocrosse Open saw six elite

female sides supporting the National Breast Cancer Foundation tussle it out under lights on the grounds. While the local club was light on nominations to compete due to hosting duties, it is already looking forward to the Albury/Holbrook Club Carnival at Holbrook on 9 and 10 May.

Tigers soaring away ALBURY Tigers left the field triumphant on Saturday after defeating Corowa-Rutherglen by 62 points at Albury Sportsground. While the premiers were only up by one point at quarter time, the Tigers wasted no time in proving why Players react to a big hit on Keiran Ellis. 137533 they were number one last season by securing a 25-point lead at halftime before running away with the Dean Polo game on 124 points. and John Brayden O’Hara starred in atRobinson. tack, scoring seven goals for his 137533 side, while Bobby Griffiths also put in a strong attacking performance scoring five. Meanwhile, Corowa-Rutherglen’s Luke Gestier kept the Roos in the game, scoring five goals. It wasn’t enough though for the Corowa-Rutherglen side to slip to the bottom of the group ladder.
