Council applauds Federal Government’s Monash Freeway plan

Advocacy drives road and transport investment

The City of Casey has welcomed the Federal Government’s plan for the upgrade of the Monash and Princes Freeways, believing it provides the best solution for Casey motorists.

Council is now calling on the State Government to increase their contribution towards the Monash Freeway upgrade, to ensure a total of $1 billion is invested in the project.

The Federal Government has promised $500 million to the upgrade, provided the State Government agrees to accept and match the offer dollar-for-dollar.

The State Government has so far allocated $400 million towards the project in the 2016-17 Victorian Budget, to upgrade the freeway from Eastlink to Clyde Road.

Council is urging the Andrews Labor

Government to match the federal funding - effectively increasing the state’s contribution by $100 million to bring the joint contribution to $1 billion, providing the best outcome and a long-term solution.

Council was thrilled to learn that the Federal Government’s funding for the project would include the extension of 0 4IFB 3PBE UP UIF #FBDPOTmFME interchange on the Princes Freeway, providing a less congested and more convenient alternative than the Clyde Road interchange for residents south of Berwick.

Casey residents need the freeway upgraded, and need the O’Shea Road extension, so Council is urging the State Government to partner with the Federal Government as soon as QPTTJCMF UP IFMQ mY UIF OPUPSJPVT Monash Freeway once and for all.

The City of Casey’s advocacy program has recently delivered a number of wins for residents, with the State Government announcing TJHOJmDBOU JOWFTUNFOUT JOUP B OVNCFS of local projects.

One of Council’s fundamental roles is to advocate on behalf of the community for the improvements, services and funds needed, where these are the responsibility of the State and Federal Governments or other third parties.

City of Casey

Building a great city Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road set for repairs The City of Casey has welcomed a $2.5 million commitment from the State Government to improve the condition of Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road near Norfolk Drive.

After a sustained advocacy effort by Council, the Victorian Government made the funding announcement earlier this month.

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FIXING BROADBAND BLACK SPOTS

FURTHER FUNDS NEEDED TO FINISH THOMPSONS ROAD

The City of Casey is thrilled that the National Broadband Network (NBN) is set to be rolled out to Narre Warren South next month.

The City of Casey welcomes the State Government’s contribution towards Thompsons Road in the State Budget, but is calling for further funding to ensure the project can be completed in its entirety.

For many years the City of Casey, along with local residents and Member for LaTrobe Jason Wood MP, advocated to the Federal Government for improved broadband infrastructure in notorious internet black spot areas across Casey.

Most particularly, Council pushed for an early roll out of the NBN in Narre Warren 4PVUI BT UIF BSFB EPFT OPU DVSSFOUMZ IBWF BEFRVBUF DPWFS GPS mYFE IJHI TQFFE broadband such as ADSL2.

Following the extensive advocacy, the Federal Government announced last year that Narre Warren South would be added to the roll-out schedule.

Construction on the network is set to start in July this year and once completed in early 2017, residents will have access to fast, reliable and affordable internet.

Council is continuing to work with the Federal Government and NBN Co to address Casey’s black spots into the future, ensuring all residents have access to fast and reliable broadband services.

Council congratulates Jason Wood MP, Federal Member for LaTrobe, on his strong support and action on this matter.

The State Government allocated $154.5 million in the 2016-17 Victorian Budget to complete the duplication of Thompsons Road between Frankston-Dandenong Road and Berwick-Cranbourne Road.

COUNCIL SUPPORTS BUSINESS INNOVATION The City of Casey plans to introduce a new scheme designed to support and foster innovation in local businesses.

Council has proposed $100,000 in its 2016-17 Draft Budget towards a Business Innovation Fund, which will allow Casey businesses to apply for an interest free loan of up to $20,000 to develop or implement an innovative idea or concept.

River Gum Ward Councillors Wayne Smith BJ JP and Damien Rosario were joined by local traders and residents to celebrate the revitalisation of Autumn Place in Doveton.

Shared path connections for pedestrians and cyclists to safely walk and ride to and from the precinct are also currently under construction.

The project is designed to enhance the area which takes in the Endeavour Hills Shopping Centre, leisure centre, neighbourhood centre, skate park and library and improve connectivity between the sites.

Stage one works are on track to be completed by the end of August. Design of stage two is proposed in Council’s 2016-17 Draft Budget, which includes landscaping and accessible terracing, upgrades to the youth and skate precinct, improved pedestrian links and a bicycle path.

Councillors Damien Rosario, Rosalie Crestani, Rafal Kaplon and Mayor Cr Sam Aziz were joined by community members to celebrate the progress of the revitalisation of the Endeavour Hills community and shopping hub.

City of Casey Mayor Cr Sam Aziz said “The fund aims to support entrepreneurial and enterprising business activities which grow businesses and generate new jobs in Casey. “To innovate is to do something in a new, creative or novel way. In business, that might mean improving an existing service or product in an original way that increases its usefulness or opens up new markets, addresses an everyday process in a revolutionary manner or developing new technology or tools to create a competitive point-of-difference. “Council hopes this fund will not only support businesses with innovation projects but also create local employment opportunities, increase the level of business investment in the municipality and foster new partnerships and collaboration between businesses.� *G BEPQUFE UIF GVOE XJMM CF MBVODIFE JO UIF OFX mOBODJBM year.

NEW AND IMPROVED ATHLETICS TRACK AT EDWIN FLACK! The community can now run, throw, hop, skip and jump at the Edwin Flack Reserve Athletics Track in Berwick all year round after the facility underwent a $2 million redevelopment.

The new and improved track was reopened in December after the City of Casey converted the existing grass athletics track, as well as the javelin, long and triple jump run-ups and high jump area, to all-weather synthetic surfaces.

The conversion of this athletics facility from grass to a synthetic surface has provided the community and Casey Little Athletics Club, who call the track home, with a modern facility, enabling athletics to prosper.

The Casey Little Athletics Club is one of the largest athletics clubs in Victoria, currently having more than 300 members who have been making good use of their upgraded facility.

Deputy Mayor Cr Mick Morland OAM, Edrington Ward Cr Susan Serey and members of the Casey Little Athletics Club celebrate the opening of the redeveloped Edwin Flack Reserve Athletics Track.

COUNCIL CONTINUES LOBBYING FOR IMPROVED SHARED HOUSING REGULATIONS The City of Casey is continuing to lobby the State Government to strengthen shared housing provisions to increase Council and DPNNVOJUZ JOnVFODF JO EFDJTJPO NBLJOH Earlier this year the City of Casey called on the State Government to undertake an urgent review of the state-wide provisions on shared housing, on behalf of residents of the Brookland Greens estate in Cranbourne where a shared housing project had been proposed.

As a direct result of Council’s advocacy, the State Government made changes to the shared housing provisions clarifying that the development of shared housing proposals in Victoria were subject to local Council planning approvals.

Under the previous state-wide planning provisions, there was uncertainty over whether Council approval was required to construct shared houses in Casey that comprise up to 10 habitable rooms.

Whilst Council welcomes the introduction of the revised provisions for the development of shared housing, Council believes the changes are not extensive enough.

The state-wide exemption for the use of new or existing buildings for shared housing up to 10 habitable rooms remains in place, and Council is still unable to consider the full potential impacts on neighbouring residents’ amenity as part of an application process.

CAMPAIGN HELPS SPREAD THE LOVE IN CASEY The City of Casey has thrown its support behind a goodwill campaign which encourages the community to carry out acts of kindness and love across the municipality.

Casey City Church is set to launch its ‘Casey - Love This City’ campaign on Friday 24 June, which will encourage residents, businesses and

organisations to undertake random acts of kindness or to ‘pay it forward’.

Council has resolved to support the initiative and has appointed former City of Casey Mayor Shar Balmes as the Goodwill Ambassador for the City of Casey to promote the campaign.

Council is continuing to advocate to the State Government for further urgent changes to the Victoria Planning Provisions that would require planning permits for both the use and development of larger shared housing proposals to facilitate greater community engagement in the approval process.

Balla Balla Ward Cr Geoff Ablett is continuing to push for further changes to shared housing provisions.

Community members might like to welcome a new resident to the neighbourhood with a gift, bake something or mow the lawn for a neighbour or simply help out someone you might not know when an opportunity presents itself.

Sex in the city

By GEORGIA WESTGARTH SHE goes by ‘Lacey’ and she’s been a prostitute for six months - but all she wants is order back in her life. “Routine� she calls it, a sort of structure that the sex industry has thrown out of her life. “All I want is to have routine and responsibilities again,� she said. “You become slack in this job, you can always ring in sick when you want and you become quite disrespectful - I can’t wait to have that again, that’s the hard thing about this job.� ‘Lacey’- her working girl name - currently resides in Cranbourne, but has spent the majority of her adult years backpacking with her best friend, two of those throughout Australia.

The 27-year-old from northern England has been caught up in the secretive and often corrupt world of paid sex for four years.

She has worked as a prostitute in Australia in two stints, for a total of six months - having returned to prostitution after separating from her husband of three years. “My best friend and I were backpacking and we were doing fruit picking for our second year visa in Shepparton and we came to Melbourne and had no money at all,� Lacey recalled. “We learnt that brothels were legal here because in the UK they’re not - so we thought we’d give it a go.�

It was something Lacey never saw in her future, and she has decided it won’t be for much longer. “If I was doing this job and just getting by that would be soul destroying but because I know it’s just a little stint and I’ll have my life back like I did before, it’s easy to get through it,� she said. “But it’s not a bad job, it’s not.�

Lacey worked at a brothel in Seaford for her first three months on the job and said she surprisingly liked it. “I thought it would be like mismatched furniture and mattresses on the floor, but it was beautiful and the girls weren’t junkies, they were lovely,� Lacey said. “We went for an interview and actually we mocked it at first.�

Lacey, a believer that “sex is for love� shocked herself and her best friend after her first shift.

If you saw her walking down the street, you'd think she was the girl next door. But behind the brothel door, she's known as Lacey, and this is her story

Lacey now works at the Garden of Eden in Dandenong. 155352 “We decided if we don’t like it we’ll pin it as a one-night stand and we’ll walk away because we’ve always lived on no money, because we’re backpackers that’s what we do,� she said. “My best friend had always slept around, I’d

had two boyfriends and never had a one-night stand, she told me that I wouldn’t be able to do it. “But it was so strange, she didn’t like it and I liked it. “I have never had a problem with a client,

FACTORY DIRECT BLINDS FOR LESS

Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS they’re very versatile and they’re paying good money and I make them happy,� she said.

Lacey later met the man she would marry in a brothel bedroom.

Been bitten by horse bug

By CASEY NEILL THE horse bug bit Colin Alderson early and the “disease” has paid off in spades.

A Medal of the Order of Australia in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List on Monday 13 June recognised Colin’s instrumental role in establishing the Cranbourne Training Centre and his dedication to supporting fellow trainers that’s spanned more than three decades.

“You don’t go into things like trainers’ associations or racing expecting to get awards - you do it for the benefit of racing and trainers,” he said.

Colin has been a licensed horse trainer since 1966 and owns Alderson Racing which is based at his Bayles home Freedom Fields.

He officially retired from training earlier this year and his daughter Cindy took over the business.

“She’s trying to manage a stable of 35 horses on her own,” he said.

His son Steven was to join

her but tragedy struck in January.

“He was up in Brisbane at the Magic Millions sales,” he said.

“He didn’t wake up one morning. He just had a heart attack and died.”

Colin’s dad was a trainer.

“I grew up in that environment and then I, as I got older, I took up riding and rode as a picnic jokey for a while,” he said.

“You can see by my size it didn’t last long!”

He met his wife Lyn through breaking in a horse for her family when they were 16.

“My father-in-law was the first instigator of me taking out a trainer’s licence,” he said.

“He made the suggestion that perhaps I should get a horse to train and he’d finance me.”

Colin worked up to three jobs at times during his journey, including a milk round with a horse and cart.

He counts 1999 Caulfield Cup winner Sky Heights as his most successful horse.

Among his greatest achieve-

ments is the Cranbourne Training Centre, where about 150 trainers work with up to 800 horses.

He worked with Tommy Harrison to secure finance and design the facility.

Colin has been the ATA president since 1997 and was the Victorian branch president from 1992 to 2012.

“We’ve just got the racing industry to come on board to help with the collection of bad debts where owners will be banned from racing if they don’t meet their bad debts,” he said.

“I think that’s probably the biggest thing we’ve done in my time in the training association, to give them some security.”

Cranbourne Racing Centre will host a lunch to celebrate Colin’s career on Friday 24 June.

“It’s a passion. It’s a disease, in one way, to be a horse person,” he said.

“It’s like alcohol - you’re not an alcoholic until you have a drink.

“Once you’ve had it you won’t walk away from it.”

Charges all round for teens

We just want to get on with the job

By VICTORIA STONE-MEADOWS CRANBOURNE firefighters say the ongoing dispute is risking their mental health when all they want to do is get on with their jobs.

And they say the ongoing wrangling over the proposed enterprise bargaining agreement won’t affect their working relationship with CFA firefighters.

The three-year dispute between the Victorian Government, the CFA and the United Firefighters Union (UFU) reached tipping point last week when the CFA board refused to sign the agreement.

Cranbourne career firefighter and UFU delegate Geoff Barker said the mental health of firefighters is at risk if the dispute continues.

“I have been inundated with messages from career firefighters about their mental health and their colleagues’ mental health,” he said.

“The vilification of firefighters in the media causes a great deal of grief and despair to the mental health of our firefighters.

“We are currently the subject of a Liberal Party campaign and are being kicked from pillar to post.”

On Friday 10 June then Minister for Emergency Services Jane Garrett stood down from cabinet rather than force the board to sign the agreement.

Deputy Premier James Merlino quickly took over the portfolio and dismissed the CFA board after members continued to refuse to sign the agreement.

The CFA put forward 14 objections to the proposed agreement that it argued disenfranchised and disempowered CFA volunteers and would cause a major disruption to firefighting operations.

Mr Barker said members feel let down.

“We require leadership from CFA to

defend the professionalism and integrity of its workforce,” he said.

“At the moment there is a deathly silence from headquarters who are more interested in EBA negotiations than the mental health of the workforce.

“While they defend the EBA position they are allowing disgraceful attacks on career firefighters.”

CFA District Eight operations manager Mark Kennedy said the dispute is having wide-reaching negative effects on CFA members.

“There is a huge impact on people and all of our volunteers and staff are being impacted adversely by this dispute,” he said.

“We have strong volunteers and career staff in District Eight and at the moment all they want to do is get on with the community and continue delivering quality service.

“They don’t like being dragged into this and the politicisation is having

negative effect on people.”

Mr Barker said that despite the negative attention, the proposed EBA will have no effect on the way paid and volunteer firefighters interact at Cranbourne CFA station.

“Nothing will change and nothing will affect volunteers,” he said.

“What we are doing today is what we will be doing when the EBA is signed off on and many of the conditions in the EBA are things we already do in the stations.”

Mr Barker said the volunteers and paid staff at Cranbourne CFA will continue to work together once the EBA dispute has been settled.

“Career firefighters will continue to respect and value the work of volunteers and we have a great relationship with volunteers in our district,” he said.

“Nothing will prevent us delivering a service that meets the expectation of the community.”

Owls are at home

BY JARROD McALEESE PEARCEDALE’S Moonlit Sanctuary recently welcomed a couple of new additions - two Australian owlet-nightjars to join its wildlife park.

The duo arrived from Perth as part of the preserve’s three-pronged species selection criteria which focuses on housing local, threatened and educationally beneficial animals.

Director Michael Johnson said the sanctuary, particularly through its guided evening tours, aimed to provide people with a glimpse into the lives of night-time wildlife.

“We’re trying to show people animals that are found in our region they don’t see at daytime on our evening tours,” Johnson said.

And after resettling from the other side of the country, Johnson said the pair had made themselves right at home.

“They’ve settled in brilliantly, I was on a night tour with them and they were quite active. They quite enjoy themselves; they have a big aviary, they get to fly around and catch the insects there for them,” Johnson said.

Moonlit Sanctuary is open daily, and bookings are essential to secure places on their evening guided tours. For more information, visit http://www.moonlitsanctuary.com.au or call 5978 7935.

Thumbs up for Judy

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS THE escaped noxious weeds blighting Cardinia Creek once seemed “insurmountable” to Casey’s recently-crowned environment volunteer of the year Judy Smith.

For 18 years, the Berwick greenthumb and other co-founders of Friends of Cardinia Creek have culled the exotic plants, removed shopping trolleys and rubbish, and revegetated the reserves.

“I didn’t think we’d get this done in my lifetime,” Ms Smith said.

Though, of course, the task - as with any weeding job - doesn’t have an end date.

“The creek will never have a clean bill of health because the (weed) seeds are still there.”

One of the worst is pittosporum - a tall East Gippsland-native with orange berries and cream flowers favoured by some gardeners as a hedge.

“Nothing grows underneath them - only the other weeds,” Ms Smith said.

Ms Smith’s 25-year commitment to the creek’s bushland reserves was recognised by Casey Council creating a seat - with a bronze plaque in her name - by the creek.

Her announcement as volunteerof-the-year was at a civic reception on World Environment Day on 3 June.

“I’m not a front person. I do the work but I’ve got a good team to work with - six of the original Friends members are still there with me.”

There’s still a need for new, young members, she adds.

“People say you can come and do my garden but they never say I’ll come and give some help.

Judy Smith holds her plaque at her beloved Cardinia Creek. 155227 “But they do say thank you for the work you do.”

Fittingly the plaque seat will be planted near a platypus sign that marks the re-introduction of platypi in 2004 - an indicator of the creek’s continuing good health.

Recent surveys have been encouraging, with a platypus recently spotted as far away as Inglis Road, Beaconsfield.

Each year, the friends group organises Clean Up Australia Day working-bees in Berwick and Bea-

consfield, collecting more than 40 bags of rubbish.

Ms Smith does her own clean-up round twice a week in the area.

She went to the first meeting of Wilson Botanic Park when the first seeds of transforming the abandoned quarry site were sown 25 years ago.

A member of Australian Plant Society, she’s helped flourish a native-plant section in the beautified park She’s a person who likes to be

Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS near the earth, bushwalking in pristine marvels like Wilson’s Promontory or helping her son establish his garden in Warburton.

As Casey-Cardinia fills with houses, the creek, the botanic park and Beaconsfield Fauna and Flora Reserve are increasingly “precious” places.

Ms Smith feels at home by the creek.

“I really enjoy Cardinia Creek and I want to make sure others can as well.”

Sex in the city From front page He was a client and would book Lacey up to four times a week for up to four hours at a time for a month.

“My ex-husband was my client - that’s where I went wrong,” Lacey said.

But he only paid to have sex with Lacey once all the other visits would be spent chatting.

“My best friend was seeing her partner, now husband, at the time and I guess I was lonely - we became friends, for six months we met up outside of the brothel and would chat on Facebook.

“He initially booked me for sex but because we got on so well it developed.”

Now broken up for reasons that cannot be recounted, Lacey decided to start working again as a prostitute at the Garden of Eden (GOE) in Dandenong and says she loves it.

“I love the GOE, we’re like a family,” she said.

“It’s just a job, I’m making somebody happy at the end of the day.”

But Lacey revealed she couldn’t do the job without using protection.

“The difference between doing the job and not is the condom for me,” she said.

“If I had no condom then that is actually doing the job, and I couldn’t do it mentally - thank God for the condom, it makes me a lot of money,” she said, laughing.

Lacey sends money to her mum to pay for the care of her cat, and apart from paying rent, saves every cent.

In between clients Lacey surfs the net and talks to the other girls, or washes the towels.

With a background in caring for those with learning disabilities, Lacey said she couldn’t wait to return home to start a routine.

“I’m saving to go back to England for good.”

Lacey’s message to those removed from the industry is this: “People are very quick to judge, but people that are on this side - both men and women - are open-minded.

“Everyone has sex behind closed doors, that’s why we’re all here on this earth, so as long as its done safely and you’re doing the right thing I don’t see any problem with it.

“We’re all human beings.”

Letters Cap still doesn't fit IN RELATION to the draft budget, Casey has been told there is no need to cut any planned infrastructure projects as it is flush with funds and has no case to raise rates above the state cap.

In fact, having read the report from the ESC, it could easily be argued that any rate rise could, and should be lowered below the 2.5 per cent cap.

On another issue, there are council elections around the corner with some aspirants looking for any expenditure they can highlight as a potential cut to the budget.

May I suggest that informed, researched decisions accompany proposals and perhaps a case for requesting the budget and the entire 5000 plus line items in the budget be released for all to read before targeting Casey council’s investment in proven strategies, such as graffiti abatement.

A clean city adds value to residential values, the net worth, perception and attitude of entire suburbs, encourages a sense of family and safety, deters criminal activity and has been shown to attract corporate and retail investment offering jobs and further investment throughout our communities.

Pathways that lead to greater economic development, opportunities for local employment, and cleaner suburbs we can all be proud of is money well spent and money well invested.

I, for one, often point out that rates and costs need to be cut at Casey but not from programs that add value to our entire community.

The best outcome for our city is for Casey to be among the most celebrated and desirable places to live in Victoria.

Funds that generate positive outcomes need to be supported.

If candidates wish to target expenditure, request a copy of the budget in full, currently denied to ratepayers, and request a performance review of council operations, independent of the CEO and mayor to ensure every dollar is invested wisely.

Otherwise, lay off looking to cut funds that add incredible value to our community.

NAIDOC Reconciliation Week at Berwick Secondary College showed off the school Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS through red, black and yellow. 155056 This outlines the suggestion by councillors Rafak Kaplan and Rosalie Crestani of a project to establish a tourist attraction of “1000 steps” to the top of the hill at Narre Warren North.

At the top of the hill is a reserve named Kurll Park.

This piece of land was donated to the community in 1974 by local farmers Mr and Mrs Reg and Lil Kurll.

They were public spirited people who did a lot for the community, including the local Scout Group and many other organisations.

Their names should not be expunged from the historical records.

What a travesty to rename the park, as suggested by councillor Crestani, to become Bayview Park in the name of Bayview Quarry.

The only claim to fame of Bayview Quarry is mining and desecrating the countryside!

There would be a public outcry if it was suggested to rename Wilson Park to become Boral Park.

THE colouring book craze has Casey seniors rediscovering their inner child.

The pastime is proving so popular that the next Great Art Show has a colouring award specifically for seniors.

Organiser Calvin Bell said the Great Art Show was a major visual art event in the City of Casey.

“We are excited that we are the first art show to have dedicated section for seniors colouring in,” Mr Bell said.

“We like to be at the forefront of innovation.”

Mr Bell said all seniors were invited to exhibit and possibly sell their finest colouring in from colouring in books or printed from the web.

All works must be done in pencil only and displayed in a frame with wire or string ready for hanging.

Entries close on 24 August.

The Great Art Show will be held at Nossal High School between 16 and 18 September.

AN ENDEAVOUR Hills man has been arrested after an alleged car-jacking followed by a 25-minute police pursuit in Carrum Downs and Dandenong in the early hours of Wednesday 15 June.

The car-jacking victim told police he was threatened with a handgun and his Hyundai ix35 stolen in the driveway of a business in Ashley Avenue, Frankston, about 12.35am.

The stolen car was spotted by Somerville Highway Patrol officers who followed from a distance and then initiated a pursuit.

During the chase, the stolen car’s 22-yearold driver pulled into a driveway in Dandenong, tried to run away and was arrested, police said.

He is assisting police in their inquiries.

Casey chief executive Mike Tyler told the ESC, in the course of the council’s submission, that one of the required tasks was a 50-page spreadsheet, with more than 9000 cells requiring individual data. “This alone was about 30 days' work that had to be diverted from other tasks.”

Mr Browne said the argument that there was no extra cost to the council was “feeble”.

“What kind of council would redirect so much valuable staff time into a dubious attempt to increase rates?

“With Mayor Aziz’s support, those staff could have been working productively for the betterment of the City of Casey.”

CASEY Council has been accused of “wasting” $250,000 on its failed submission to lift rates above a 2.5 per cent rise.

Casey Residents and Ratepayers Association spokesman Brendan Browne said the council should have known the Essential Services Commission’s likely verdict, given the bid’s unpopularity.

“The council tried to argue the unpopularity of the excessive rate charges didn’t matter because it was still in the best interest of ‘all ratepayers’.

“It makes you wonder whether the council are so used to wasting money, that $250,000 down the drain doesn’t matter to them.”

The Municipal Association of Victoria estimated the submissions would cost up to $40,000.

Casey Mayor Sam Aziz said it was inaccurate to portray Casey’s bid as “wasteful”, noting there was no “extra cost” to the ratepayer.

He said the ‘cost’ comprised the hours devoted by council staff on the bid, though external consultants were hired for required community consultation.

“The (Local Government) minister (Natalie Hutchins) told us we should not hold back on community consultation.

“If you look objectively at what was required for the best possible shot, we did what we had to do.

“We put in a very professional document of full modelling and analysis on the impact of ratecapping on the fastest-growing (council area) in the state.”

The ESC stated that councils had reported the required paperwork was “extensive” and the process itself “cumbersome”.

“As part of its review of the system, the ESC should ... make it as simple as possible for councils to meet their application requirements.”

A better way to get jobs done

DOZENS of potholes dot the drop off and pick up zone outside the Tooradin Primary School, and according to locals it’s been a “muddy mess” for more than 21 years.

But the City of Casey say they are awaiting a response from the Department of Education and Training (DET) before action can be taken on sealing Bayview Road.

A constant debacle for locals and school parents alike, the road has become a hot topic on social media page, the Tooradin Newsboard.

Comments from early June read: Jaimi: I started Prep in 1995 and it was an issue in wet times back then - much less traffic then too. We just used the inlet gate even if it was further to walk for us.

Carmel: It hasn’t been graded for months, the potholes are damaging cars, one side of the road is undrivable, it’s messy and dirty out the front of a school that everyone uses at least twice a day. This is not acceptable.

“The road is an absolute disgrace with potholes the size of swimming pools, it’s a muddy mess,” Ms McArthur said.

“A new estate has just gone in on the corner of Bayview Road and Sambur Avenue which has created more traffic and this road should have been sealed when this estate went in.”

David Richardson from the City of Casey advised that sealing the road is being investigated by the council.

“The council’s policy is that

“The cost to seal Bayview Road would be shared between DET for Tooradin Primary School, council, who would contribute over 50 per cent of the cost, and the abutting property owners.

“The council has been in discussions with DET about a contribution to the sealing works, car parking and footpath associated with the school use.”

He added that: “Progress on the project and the scope of it will be dependent on the response of DET”.

Hoons and their cars crushed...

Hoons get smoked out

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS HOONS caught on video performing smoking donuts and burnouts in tandem - and in one instance hitting a spectator - at South East Skids meets in an industrial estate have had their cars forfeited to the state.

More than 20 offenders arrested as part of Taskforce Regarder police investigations - were called at a packed Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday 8 June.

All had allegedly performed circle burnouts in front of up to 100 spectators during various illegal meets at Licola Crescent, Dandenong South, from December to February.

All but one of the hoons who pleaded guilty had their cars forfeited by magistrate Barry Schulz. All lost their licences and many were ordered to perform unpaid work as part of community orders.

Each had been identified using police CCTV footage zoning on number plates and drivers as they lined up in two long queues to join the skids meets.

One of the accused was Mitchell Gifford of Cranbourne who, after taking part in skids, led police on a 135km/h pursuit in his Falcon later that morning.

During the abandoned pursuit in Cranbourne he caused

other drivers to brake heavily as he entered a roundabout on the wrong side of the road and turned right.

The same car had been observed performing a sustained, circular burnout in Lynbrook in October as well as in a Bundoora industrial estate in late 2014.

Magistrate Mr Schulz said: “It’s a matter of your (young) age that has particularly saved you from a period of imprisonment.”

On 13 January Brodie Treloar’s car followed another vehicle into the turnaround bowl.

Footage played to the court showed that the pair of vehicles in tandem circle burnouts while a passenger sat out of the window of Treloar’s car.

At the same time several people walked in the middle to film the performance - akin to “running with the bulls”, Mr Schulz said.

Most of the offenders were aged up to their early 20s with limited or no prior offences.

An older exception was Trent Alexander Thompson who had several relevant priors and received a sentence indication of imprisonment and the possible forfeiture of his $100,000 car.

A sobbing Thompson blurted “no” when it was mentioned

that he could lose his car.

Prosecutor Acting Sergeant Cameron Smithett said police had yet to finish investigating a 46 giga-byte, 3500-page file of videos and pictures of Thompson’s cars at similar meets found on Thompson’s phone.

Thompson was bailed to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 29 June along with alleged South East Skids organiser Marcus Cory Reddecliffe.

Another repeat offender was Clinton Wawrzik who had his Falcon with the plates LUXXRY impounded for 30 days after speeding at 153km/h on Monash Freeway in November.

Less than a week later he sped up to 130km/h in his girlfriend’s car during an illegal drag race from traffic lights on Warrigal Road, Murrumbeena.

Days after his LUXXRY Falcon was returned, Wawrzik was captured doing circle burnouts at Licola Crescent.

He was on a community corrections order at the time of these offences.

Mr Schulz had the Falcon impounded but had the custommade number plates returned after a plea from Wawrzik.

Other participants were bailed to appear at contest mentions at the court on 21 June.

The higher the star rating, the more energy eficient the heater is - meaning bigger annual savings on your running costs. On average, an increase of one star means energy usage savings of approximately 10 percent.

Suffering with giant cell arteritis, polymyalgia rheumatica and rheumatoid arthritis, Ms Boucher still enjoys riding in her scooter with Lollie by her side.

“Last night she ripped up my mail, but I don’t care,” she said.

“We are both 'old gals’ together and love it.

“I am very much a believer

that a greyhound dog is the best dog anyone could have, even for older people, they are couch potatoes and don’t ask for much but to be fed, hugged, patted, loved and maybe a small walk each day.

“They don’t lose fur and don’t make the house smell; I have had other dogs in the past, but will never even consider any other breed.”

RESCUING a greyhound rescued Sandy.

The loneliness was palpable before Sandy Boucher met Lollie.

On the brink of taking her own life, Ms Boucher from Cranbourne made a lifesaving call to the crisis assessment team at the Casey Hospital.

It was that team’s personnel who suggested she get herself a pet.

“I told the psychiatrist, ‘I can’t stand the loneliness anymore’ and they said that a greyhound would be perfect,” Ms Boucher said.

And two months on, Ms Boucher, a former alcoholic, says her life has been transformed by a pup she calls Lollie Dolly Miss Polly or Lollie for short.

“From the moment she was introduced to me, my life changed. I had a reason to live. I had the responsibility of loving and caring for my baby girl,” she said.

Now the best of mates, Lollie has had an exciting past.

“Her racing name was Imaginary Dream, and she ran for more than two years,” Ms Boucher said.

“She raced 65 times and won three, came second three times and third 10 times. I smile and laugh at her antics; she has me around her little paw.

“My life is so full and rich now, I want to help others to help themselves by considering adopting a beautiful greyhound and save a beautiful greyhound’s life as well as adding meaning to theirs.”

Spoken word artist Abdul Hammoud with his notebook.

155211 Picture: GARY SISSONS Mr Hammoud wrote one of his favourite pieces about three years ago while he was on tour in the US. “It was the first time I’d been away from my family for that long,” he said.

“I forgot what a homecooked meal tasted like. I forgot what it’s like to sit down and chat with my dad.

“It’s about who my mother is to me and who my father is to me. Who they are and how they made me.

“I work on things when they come to me - usually at 3am.

“In most cases a piece will take maybe an hour to write but it will take three to six months of editing and trialling and fixing and rebuilding and scrapping and starting again.”

He’s working in retail but hopes to make a career from his craft.

“If Jim Henson can build a career out of playing with puppets... then there’s no reason why a poet can’t make a living out of writing poetry,” he said.

“It’s about my own tenacity and my own hard work and what I put into it.”

The Emerging Writers’ Festival celebrates creativity and innovation, nurtures new talent and provides a place for diverse voices.

Other Greater Dandenong events include a comic book and graphic novel workshop from noon to 1.30pm at Springvale Library, and a look at podcasting at Dandenong Library from 3pm to 5pm.

The Emerging Writers’ Festival runs from Tuesday 14 to Friday 24 June.

1231548-RC24-16

Announcement of successful applicants will be made during September 2016.

DANDENONG’S Abdul Hammoud has a story to share.

“I perform spoken word, which is kind of like hip hop meets classical poetry,” he said.

“I was one of the kids in class who was bullied. I took to writing raps - bad ones!

“As I grew up a friend of mine showed me a spoken word video on YouTube and I said ‘this is awesome, I think I can do this’.”

Mr Hammoud, who works in Cranbourne, performed for the first time at age 18 and “it’s terrifying, it was horrible” but he’s learnt to embrace the fear.

“I try to remind myself why I’m there,” he said.

“I have a story. I have my experiences that I want to share.

“I find comfort in my writing. I find comfort in showing other people how to write.”

The 24-year-old will perform and teach in Dandenong on Saturday 18 June as part of the Emerging Writers’ Festival’s first visit to Greater Dandenong.

Mr Hammoud will help budding writers to get a start at the Emerging Writers Intensive at Dandenong Library from 11am to 2pm.

He’ll take to the stage for Off the Map and Into the Stars at Walker Street Gallery and Arts Centre from 6.30pm to 8.30pm.

“I’m fairly informal about it and that’s why I like teaching it,” he said.

“It’s more about getting them to open up and be artistic in the first place.”

Boy what a run!

BY JARROD McALEESE JAKE Ward describes himself as “just an ordinary guy from Cranbourne”.

However, in November this year Ward, senior co-captain of the Lyndhurst Lightning Football Club, will be completing an extraordinary feat — a 1500km run from the Gold Coast back home to Cranbourne through which he aims to raise over $50,000 for the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

Breast cancer has struck Ward’s family twice, and it is these losses that motivated Ward to join the fight against the cruel illness.

“It all started off when my cousin Samantha passed away from breast cancer; she was only 31 at the time.

“A few years after that, my aunty on the other side of my family had breast cancer and passed away during recovery.

“I jumped on and thought, well I’m young and I can do something. I didn’t really know what I was good at, so I decided to run,” Ward said.

The run will be Ward’s third campaign, after a non-stop 19 hour, 110 km run across the City of Casey in 2013 and a marathon 1000km hike from Sydney to Melbourne in 2014.

And Ward said that his preparation was as much about mastering his mind as it was about conditioning his body.

“I play football all year, I lift weights and go to the gym, but it’s just about building up mentally. There’s only so much running you can do.

“As I learned during the Syd-

In between his daily treks, Ward meets and greets locals in the various towns he enters, sometimes at the expense of proper recovery, he admits.

“If I finish later in the day, the recovery becomes less because I want to promote in the town that I am in. Sometimes, I sacrifice recovery to gain awareness of the run,” Ward said.

Ward has recently reached $10,000 in donations, and is hoping to raise $51,725.95, a

special figure for Ward, having raised close to 50k in his previous two runs.

“It’s just amazing to see the generosity of people, it’s $10 from one person, $5 from another.

“The target is a precise number; it would mean over three runs I have raised $100,000,” Ward said.

Ward greatly appreciates all donations and is particularly on the lookout for a car sponsor. Donations can be made at https://nbcfsports.everydayhero.com/au/jakewardgc and Ward can be contacted on his Facebook page at https://www. facebook.com/jakeward1500kms.

Federal election countdown

Labor woos voters

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS

LABOR has pledged up to $20 million for 1600 technical education places in a pilot scheme in Berwick, if the party wins government on 2 July.

Opposition Higher Education Spokesman Kim Carr, with La Trobe ALP candidate Simon Curtis, said the proposed Commonwealth Institute of Higher Education would “fill a big hole” in the education system.

The institute will offer two-year sub-degree courses at advanced diploma and associate degree levels, with a focus on “employability”, Mr Carr said.

Students would have a “high-skill exit qualification”, with the option of going onto university.

The ALP will pledge similar institutes in Frankston and Preston, and nationally, as part of

its 2 July Federal Election pitch.

The Berwick institute’s $20 million federal funding was subject to a joint funding agreement with the Victorian Government.

Mr Carr said increasing numbers of unprepared students were being signed up for university, with many dropping out or failing. Half of students with entrance scores less than 50 and enrolled in university did not succeed, he said.

“We’re filling a gap in the education system, particularly in areas such as this.”

He cited the Casey area’s economic downturn, higher-than-average unemployment and the need to teach a technical skills-set for manufacturing and material-science jobs.

“Educational attainment is way under par,” Mr Carr said.

“Engagement with the higher education system is lower than we want to see.”

The institute would be partnered by Chisholm Institute and the future operator of the soon-to-bevacated Monash University site in Berwick, Mr Carr said.

“We’d like to see that we continue to offer higher education at the (university) site. That we ... ensure people of this region get entitlements that the rest of the state gets.”

La Trobe ALP candidate Simon Curtis said he’d advocated for such an Institute at the site which linked education and skills to “real jobs”.

He said La Trobe incumbent Jason Wood had known of Monash’s potential closure at Clyde Road for two years, but “nothing’s been done to ensure its future”.

Kim Carr and Simon Curtis announce the ALP’s plan for higher education in Berwick 155539 Picture: CAM LUCADOU-WELLS Training and Skills Minister Steve Herbert said the state government looked forward to supporting “these industry linked institutions in partnership with our TAFEs and universities”.

“Victoria has the best universities and TAFEs in Australia and this will only be enhanced with the introduction of Commonwealth Institutes of Higher Education.”

CAN’T MAKE IT ON ELECTION DAY? Rise is up top

By GEORGIA WESTGARTH RISE Up Australia Party has secured top spot on the ballot paper in two of Casey’s three federal election seats.

The Australian Electoral Commission finalised the order for each electorate through a randomised draw on Friday 10 June ahead of the Saturday 2 July poll.

In Holt Rise Up Australia Party’s Colin Robertson relegated Labor hopeful and long-standing MP Anthony Byrne to second place.

Holt’s Liberal candidate 21-year-old James Mathias has taken last spot, rounding off at number five.

La Trobe’s 10 candidate ballot paper has The Greens’ Tom Cummings in first place, Liberal hopeful Jason Wood at number seven and Simon Curtis from the Labor Party at four on the list.

Derryn Hinch’s Justice Party candidate Julieanne Lynette Doidge is third on the ballot paper and Family First Party candidate Jeffrey Bartram rounds off the list in La Trobe.

In the Flinders electorate voters will see Rise Up Australia Party’s Yvonne Gentle at the number one spot and Greens candidate Willisa Hogarth in third spot.

ALP’s Carolyn Gleixner is number four on the list and current MP Greg Hunt and Minister for the Environment snagged fifth spot on the ballot paper ahead of Ben Wild from the Animal Justice Party at number six.

Holt: 1. ROBERTSON, Colin - Rise Up Australia Party 2. BYRNE, Anthony - Australian Labor Party 3. BULL, Neil - Family First Party 4. TILTON, Jake - The Greens 5. MATHIAS, James - Liberal

THE WHITEHAVEN - WHERE THE PAST MEETS THE PRESENT FROM PAGE 1.

THE beautiful cottage-style Whitehaven is a reflection of the stunning architecture of the mid-Victorian period.

It really stands out in the street as a stylish and classic home among the modern facades that dominate today’s estates.

The 30-45 degree roof pitches and customised gables allow customisation of the home and set it apart from the box-form designs that dominate estates today.

Built and designed by Kialla Homes, the Whitehaven is a testament to the past with all the character and style of a century ago

while ensuring the plan meets the needs of today’s lifestyle. With four bedrooms and two living areas, the spacious home combines the perfect amount of classic charm with a real sense of space.

The list of standard features is amazing.

It ticks all the boxes internally with nine-foot ceilings, Wonthaggi fretwork in the hallways, timber double-hung windows, decorative return air event, V-joint panelling in the hallway, 140mm skirting, deep Sydneycove cornices and timber double-hung windows to the front facade.

Every room is painted with three coats of Haymes paints as standard, adding further

to the quality finishes.

The exteriors - all typical of the midVictorian era - include bagged brickwork, decorative quoining and metal fretwork under the skillion verandah and turned verandah posts.

The tone and detail is set by the Caringbush entry door that leads to a stylish passage with heritage power points and heritage light switches and picture rails that ooze Victorian charm.

The kitchen features Westinghouse dual fuel upright cooking applicances under a timber canopy, full vinyl wrap kitchen and breakfast bar with a double ceramic sink.

Whitehaven 245 is priced from $202,550 or $271,685 as displayed at Lineham Drive, Cranbourne, in the Mayfield estate.

Period homes are the Kialla Homes specialty including the Whitehaven, Brighton, Kingston and many other homes in the range.

Additional standard inclusion to add to the interior are ornate cornice, plaster ceiling rose, plastered corbeled archways and fireplace.

For further information visit kiallahomes. com.au, or call Kialla Homes on 5941 3996.

HISTORY AT THE HEART OF NEW COMMUNITY retirement village, and a Woolworths supermarket will be central to a six-hectare neighbourhood activity centre.

At the heart of Lochaven is an impressive central park that contours around the area’s existing waterway and opens into a series of smaller, interconnected parks. This is central to developing Lochaven’s truly integrated community, as the open space and pathways link all aspects of people’s lives through a natural parkland corridor. “Residents will be able to walk to everything they need for quality living in 21st century Melbourne,� Mr Dywer said.

A sense of place has always been important to Dacland. John L. Dwyer, founder of the family-owned company, came from farming stock. It’s something that makes Dacland’s second-generation managing director John C. Dwyer very proud. “For us, heritage is an important part of creating authentic communities. It’s essential to our philosophy as a developer, especially

in a place such as Lochaven where the land has been managed by several generations of the same family.�

Street names throughout Lochaven are drawn from McNab memories and milestones. The name itself, Lochaven, evolved as a nod to the Scottish heritage of the family, and Dacland even created a commemorative coffee table book in appreciation of the McNabs’ century on the land. “This collection of memories and photos creates an awareness of special experiences, large and small, that we hope will enrich the lives of the families who move in and make a place of their own,� Mr Dwyer said. “Our intention is to create communities that connect people to each other and to the land in every possible way.�

Dacland creates places that connect people by encouraging social interaction through intelligent design. A combination of real housing choice, abundant green open space, and attention to every detail will

see Lochaven grow into a connected and welcoming neighbourhood.

Details include streets designed to control traffic flow so it’s safer for families with young children, wide verges to create attractive streetscapes that encourage people to walk not drive, and locating every home within one minute of green open space or a community amenity.

Dacland also offers home buyers $3000 towards landscaping their front garden as soon as possible to add to the instant sense of a premium neighbourhood. “Gardens create interaction at the front of people’s houses, which aligns with our philosophy of connecting people and creating strong foundations for great communities to grow,� Mr Dwyer said.

Dacland intends releasing more lots at Lochaven next month. For more information see www.Lochaven.com.au

AWARD-WINNING developer Dacland’s first community in Melbourne’s south-east - Lochaven - is proving extremely popular with only a handful of lots left unsold after the weekend.

The 66-hectare site on the corner of Hall and Evans roads will become home to around 500 families in Cranbourne West.

Almost 90 per cent of available lots in the first release were sold on Lochaven’s opening day, Saturday 4 June.

Dacland managing director John Dywer was not surprised by the result. “Lochaven is in a fantastic location and Dacland’s reputation for creating beautiful sought after places to live clearly appeal.

We had over 450 registrations of interest before we launched selling so we knew this new community was going to be extremely popular.�

Lochaven will include an eight-hectare school and 10 hectares of Dacland’s signature beautifully landscaped green open space. It also incorporates a nine-hectare

NEW PARK AT TIMBERTOP THE long awaited Neighbourhood Park is coming soon to Timbertop Estate, Officer, with works commencing.

The two hectare park, located in the heart of the estate, will be just one of many places to relax on the weekend at Timbertop, including the popular Timber Mill Café.

Offering something for everyone, the park will include picturesque walking

tracks, playground equipment for the kids, barbeque facilities and picnic area for Sunday lunches, and a large kickabout area for sport lovers.

It has walking paths surrounded by native planting so visitors can go for a leisurely stroll and take in stunning views at various lookout points on the trail.

Completion of the park is expected to be

late 2016, just in time for summer.

Ben and Sarah Manelski are building their home at Timbertop and are looking forward to enjoying the new park with their daughters.

“The girls love to get outside - they love to play and run around so it’ll be great to have the park,” Sarah said.

With places to explore and entertain in a safe, friendly community, Timbertop is more than just a land estate, it’s a way of life.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

They’re making the future

by NARELLE COULTER

From left, CSIRO manufacturing deputy director Cathy Foley, executive director of the Australian Advanced Manufacturing Council Jennifer Conley, executive director of the Future Industries Project Michael Green, Ray Keefe from Success Endeavours, Tim Leeds from Melbourne Rotomould and chief economist with the Australian Industry Group Julie Toth.

Cardinia region is keen to be a part of.

The region is making a concerted push to attract manufacturing and especially smart manufacturing in order to create jobs, cut down commute times and improve the health and wellbeing of the entire community.

Cardinia CEO Garry McQuillan said jobs and innovation were vitally important to the region, which was one of the fastest growing in Australia and

would eventually boast a population the size of Canberra.

He said manufacturing accounted for more than 20 per cent of the region’s output.

“We see advanced manufacturing as crucial to the ongoing success of our economy and is directly linked to employment opportunities for our 400,000 residents of today,“ he said.

“Seventy per cent of our working

Ready to have a crack

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS THE key to TRJ Engineering thriving as a manufacturer is it “got off our bums and found work”, said its managing director David Murphy.

The Hallam-based business, which employs 30 people and turns over $5 million a year, was named as a finalist at the recent 2016 Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame Awards.

It has not shed a job in recent times despite the challenging times for manufacturing, including the wind-down of Australia’s automotive industry, Mr Murphy said.

“We’ve actually employed 10 or so more people since 2008,” he said.

Apart from effort, the manufacturer has also drummed up business because of its versatility.

Much of its work comes from making B-double truck

chassis, as well as vandal covers and safety handles for earthmoving equipment and stylish, custom street furniture locally and across the nation.

As part of its “high end, high impact” work, TRJ made the striking, custom bins, bike racks and benches in the Revitalising Central Dandenong project and the seats in the recent revamp of Eaton Mall, Oakleigh.

It has produced bins, illuminated signs, benches in Argyle Square, Carlton, a toilet block, barbecues for the City of Melbourne, as well as custom work for Perth and Randwick city councils.

Mr Murphy’s motto is that the company will make anything, with the help of design software that produces 3D models.

“Our skill sets are really high. There’s nothing we can’t have a crack at.

“I’d go stir-crazy if we were

population leave the municipality and head to the Monash. On average they spend two hours on the Monash. Fifty per cent of the Cardinia population suffers from obesity and we have one of the highest domestic violence rates in the state. Jobs are critical.“ Chief economist with the Australian Industry Group Julie Toth said despite the demise of Australia’s auto industry and the loss of jobs in the sector, 18 per

cent of manufacturing jobs or 200,000 positions had been lost since 2008, the news was not all bad.

She said the biggest growth areas were food, beverages and groceries.

Pharmaceuticals were also on a growth trajectory, as were cosmetics, toiletries and vitamin and health supplements.

“These are all areas of production where quality control is paramount and they have also benefited from the (lower) Australian dollar,“ she said.

“Ten to 15 years ago, the expansion was in cars and heavy machinery. It’s more now in food and beverages.“ Ms Toth said domestic construction demand was contributing to a strong building materials, industrial textiles and furniture sectors.

She said 20,000 businesses in Australia were identified as advanced manufacturers.

Dr Michael Green, executive director of the Future Industries Project said the Casey Cardinia region was perfectly poised to become a major centre of food manufacturing.

He said the region’s location on the edge of the urban growth boundary and clean, green image was a distinct advantage “The Casey Cardinia region has a lot of manufacturing capability and there are a lot of opportunities in the south east region.“ Mr Green said State Government investment in high velocity trains and Federal Government defence contracts were both manufacturing opportunities for the region.

just doing the same thing each day.”

Mr Murphy’s father Terry started the company in a small factory in 1974.

David joined the business 20 years ago, initially reluctant to work for the “old man”. He now holds the reins of this family company with some pride.

“Whether or not it goes for another generation, we’ll see,” Mr Murphy said.

TRJ’s services include metal fabrication, all types of welding, laser and guillotine cutting, general engineering, powder coating, and brake pressing.

Another Hallam business Dorma, which is part of an international manufacturing chain that makes automated door and gate operating systems, was also a finalist at the Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame Awards.

IN THE future, households won’t buy refrigerators, they will “hire cold hours“ and “wearables“ won’t only clothe people but monitor the environment and turn body heat into electricity.

Those were two predictions made at a manufacturing and future industries forum held at the Sofitel on Tuesday 7 June.

Sponsored by the Casey Cardinia Region, the forum featured representatives from the CSIRO, the State Government and the Australian Industry Group.

CSIRO deputy director of manufacturing Cathy Foley said in the future manufacturing would become a service industry.

She predicted the evolution of cars that would monitor how we drive with the information fed back to insurance companies and “wearables“ that would monitor the environment around us, including the quality of the oxygen we breathe, directly affecting health insurance premiums.

She said the problem of clothing going to landfill would be solved by “dissolve on demand“ threads and instead of buying a refrigerator, customers would purchase “cooling hours“, with the manufacturer responsible for monitoring when the appliance needed fixing and recycling it at the end of its life.

Ms Foley said these ideas were being developed now in universities and the CSIRO. It’s a high tech future the Casey

Latest options Heal the body, mind and spirit - now for treatment EACH patient is given personalised care from Dr Any Ong at Elite Orthodontics at Narre Warren South.

The focus of the clinic is to bring the latest and best advances in clinical orthodontics (braces) to the Casey-Cardinia community.

Staff aim to provide caring and experienced treatment by a registered Australasian Orthodontic Board-certified specialist orthodontist.

The practice encourages parents to be chair-side during visits to allow treatment progress to be discussed in detail.

Operating for the past six years in the Casey-Cardinia area, the practice offers a minimal waiting list and a scheduling policy which allows patients to start treatment when they want to.

And patients only see one orthodontist with Dr Ong there from start to finish.

Traditional metal braces, clear braces and even lingual invisible braces that are fitted onto the inner surfaces of the teeth are available at the clinic.

Staff also use Invisalign - clear, plastic, custom-fitted splints that fit over the teeth and

Jessica, Bree and Cassie. 154407 help straighten them without the need for braces.

But the main strength of the clinic is the use of state-of-theart technology such as computer-aided visualisation software to demonstrate various treatments and their effects allowing patients to gain an in-depth understanding of the proposed treatment.

There is also a flexible, nofuss payment plan and costs of

treatment and expected duration of treatment are always discussed beforehand so there are no surprises.

No referral is needed and before and after school appointments are available.

The clinic at 236 Ormond Road, Narre Warren South, is open four days a week from Monday to Thursday.

NOW, Yoga isn’t about fancy clothes or equipment and caters to the participants level, aiming to heal and merge the body, mind and spirit.

Now, Yoga is the brainchild of Melise, principal teacher and owner.

Her approach to yoga is “you are perfect just as you are!”.

“I attended my first yoga class six years ago to find strength in myself after being left feeling alone, lost, with a lack of purpose, unloved and just ugh,” she admitted.

With a background in personal training, she brings a functional modern day yogi, anatomically easy to chew style approach to her classes.

“I’ve always been interested in the human body and studied Certificates III and IV in Fitness, Effective movement training and TRX suspension training at Personal Training

Academy; Fitness business school, introduction to Yoga, Pilates, Tour De Cycle and Body Sculpt Boot Camp at Steiner Leisure Ltd. “I decided to take a job on a cruise ship and onboard I would teach various classes including yoga and meditation.“ She said being able to see the change she could bring in a short time, she decided to investigate yoga more, completing an Advanced Diploma of Yoga at the Australian Yoga Academy.“ She said she had always been attracted to stillness and the bigger questions in life and has always been in touch with her spirit.

“Yoga will help you be in touch with yours as you use the yoga space as a stepping stone to the other minutes of your day to move forward in your life,” she said.

“Want a stronger sense of direction? You don’t need to do anything except show up and be ‘you’, take time for yourself, by doing so learn how to love and look after those you love greater than you ever thought could be true. No matter your experience or fitness level, we can cater to your level through meditation, breathing techniques, dynamic movements, static poses, improving your strength, balance, flexibility, muscle integrity, posture, from the inside out, we aim to heal and merge the body, mind and spirit.”

Tests catch risks earlier in life BOWEL cancer, also called colorectal cancer, is the second most common cancer in both men and women in Australia.

Eighty per cent of cases have no known hereditary genetic associations.

Bowel cancer is preceded by adenomas (polyps), which may become invasive cancer if undetected. Around 90 per cent of bowel cancers are curable if caught early.

Yet currently fewer than 40 per cent are being detected in the early stages.

June is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month and St John of God Berwick Hospital will support Red Apple Day on Wednesday 22 June to raise awareness and funds for Bowel Cancer Australia.

Michael and Irene Ajani, owners of 9Mile Fresh, will donate red apples which will be sold for a gold coin donation and will also be included in the lunch menu offered to patients.

St John of God Berwick Hospital has a team of gastroenterologists, colorectal surgeons and oncologists that can assist in the diagnosis and treatment of colon cancer.

A diagnosis is made via colonoscopy and this procedure along with surgery and chemotherapy, if required, can all be accessed at St John of God Berwick Hospital.

Cancer Council Australia recommends all Australians aged 50 and over screen for bowel cancer with a faecal occult blood test (FOBT) every two years.

The government currently sends free FOBT tests to all 50, 55, 60 and 65-year-olds.

Healthy eating can reduce the risks.

By 2020 the free screening will be every two years.

If you are not in the eligible age brackets under the national screening program, you can still be tested. Contact your general practitioner (GP) to discuss your screening options.

Your GP can request a faecal occult blood test which is eligible for a Medicare benefit.

The risk of bowel cancer can be reduced by not smoking, a healthy diet with plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables, and maintaining a healthy body weight.

Risk factors include age, inherited genetic risk, inflammatory bowel disease, obesity and smoking.

Symptoms of colorectal cancer include change in bowel habit with

diarrhoea, constipation or the feeling of incomplete emptying, thin bowel movements, blood in the motion or abdominal bloating or cramping.

More general symptoms are tiredness, weight loss and unexplained anaemia.

Mr Brian Hodgkins, Mr Phil Harris and Mr James Lim are colorectal surgeons who operate at St John of

God Berwick Hospital.

Mr Hodgkins consults at Berwick and for appointments call 9707 0685.

Mr Harris (Casey Surgical Group) consults in Berwick and for appointments call 9707 3664. Mr James Lim also consults in Berwick and Dandenong and can be contacted on 9793 2687.

Talk to a GP if there are any concerns for a referral to a specialist.

New hospital opening in 2017 The new St John of God Berwick Hospital is now under construction at Kangan Drive, Berwick and will be ready to deliver care closer to home in 2017.

By GEORGIA WESTGARTH A CITIZEN’S arrest brought an 18-yearold from Berwick to justice after two days of rampaging through Casey in an allegedly stolen car.

Police said a carjacking started a string of crimes on Sunday 12 June, when the teen is alleged to have jumped in a gold Nissan Maxima while the owner was loading the boot with groceries, at the Parkhill Plaza in Berwick, about 10.15pm.

The Nissan, with registration QUR 075, was running with its keys in the ignition at the time it was taken.

The following day, the car was used to steal petrol from a Caltex service station in Berwick before it nearly caused a multi-vehicle car crash in Cranbourne North.

Between 12.40pm and 1.15pm that same day, the stolen car was seen driving erratically on the wrong side of the road at the intersection of Thompsons Road and Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road.

Several drivers had to take swift action to avoid colliding with the stolen Nissan.

Later that same day the Maxima crashed into a car after trying to overtake a person turning right into the Berwick Church of Christ on Centre Road. Both cars sustained serious damage.

The teenager tried to run away from the scene of the accident but was arrested by a witness of the crash and was held in a citizen’s arrest until police arrived.

The witness was bitten on the chest

while holding the suspect and sustained redness and bruising.

The 18-year-old was arrested and charged with 10 offences including theft of a motor car, dangerous driving, recklessly causing injury, unlicensed driving and possession of cannabis and methamphetamine.

Detectives from Casey CIU are requesting that anyone who saw the stolen car around Berwick and Cranbourne North areas to call Detective Senior Constable David Sweeney on 9705 3178.

CASH and more than three tonnes of drugs were seized by police after warrants were executed throughout north-west Melbourne, with a Hampton Park man charged.

It’s alleged a total of around 3.8 tonnes of 1,4 butanediol, 6kg of ecstacy, 3kg of ice and 15kg of dried cannabis was seized along with a substantial amount of cash.

Warrants were executed on Tuesday 14 June at properties in Lygon Street, Brunswick, Racecourse Road, Flemington, Ashley Street, Braybrook and Station Street, Coburg.

Detectives arrested five men and one woman who faced an out of sessions hearing last night charged with trafficking a large commercial quantity of illicit drugs.

Those included a 25-year-old Coburg man, 30-year-old Hampton Park man, 29-year-old Glenroy man, 30-year-old Keilor East man, 29-year-old Craigieburn man and a 25-year-old woman.

Investigators allegedly recovered a firearm and stolen vehicle in Derrimut Street, Albion.

The men and woman were remanded to appear at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday 15 June.

Athlete is learning how

By JARROD POTTER HOPING her summer success leads into next season, Springvale Little Athletics Centre track and field star Emmanuella Chaliker leaped into the record books.

Chaliker, 12, from Cranbourne, only got into the sport on the suggestion of a teacher ... a fatefully brilliant idea.

A hop, step and a jump later, Chaliker earned her inaugural state gold medal on her local track with a 10.48m leap at Little Athletics Victoria State Track and Field Championships in March.

When she heard the number called out by the marshals, she was left stunned and with no one surpassing her best attempt, Chaliker was speechless when she accepted her first state title.

“I didn’t believe it at first, but I was happy,” Chaliker said.

“State gold in triple jump, my first state gold, so it was really good.”

It’s been a rapid rise in

the sport for Chaliker, who hadn’t thought about competing athletically at all two years ago.

“About two years - a teacher from my primary school - St Joseph’s - told me I had talent and I tried out for Springvale Little Athletics club,” Chaliker said.

“I mainly like triple jump - ’cause it’s fun and easy - and some 200m events, hurdles and sprints.”

Her coach, Corey Pendry, from Pendry’s Development Squad was thrilled to see Chaliker up the ante at the state meet with a massive personal best in the most technical field event.

“It was a big shock to everyone when Emmanuella won state because the week before that at the Springvale meet she jumped 10.20m, then jumped another 28-centimetre PB at state to pull it out of the woodwork,” Pendry said.

“In two weeks she cracked a 10, not once but three times, so she peaked at the right time.

“At that stage I was watching other athletes and ran over to congratulate her ... so it was just an amazing day for her to actually win for the first time ever.

“Most amazing experience she’s ever had as she finished second at regionals - I think she beat the state champion that won last year, so that was an amazing effort too.”

Chaliker finished fifth in the 70m sprint final, sixth in the 100m to round out the stellar meet at Casey Fields.

She’s also the Killester College school athletics year seven champion and proudly showed off a sash for her achievements to cap off the 2015-16 summer athletics season.

She hopes to carry her strong form into 2017 as she eyes off further success in the track and field arena.

She wanted to thank coach Corey for helping her improve throughout the season and reach the top of the podium.

Ripari racks up the milestones on field

By JARROD POTTER TAKING every opportunity has driven Kayla Ripari to superb heights already in 2016 ... and it’s only June.

Ripari, 18, from Devon Meadows, is having a milestone year in every sense as she’s racked up a litany of possessions, marks, tackles and a couple of premierships.

Following her national championship victory with Vic Metro and Youth Girls Academy success at the Dandenong Stingrays, the fleet-footed midfielder took the next step on her football journey as she added a VFL debut to the trophy cabinet.

She took the field for Cranbourne Women’s VFL team on Sunday afternoon and immediately barrelled into the action in her usual tenacious manner.

Number 42 will hold a special place for Ripari as her inaugural senior number - and got stuck into the top-tier women’s football, throwing herself in at any loose ball.

She loved life in the Eagles’ line-up and taking her football up to the senior elite standard.

“It was really good - the whole environment and the girls were all so welcoming - it didn’t feel like it was a completely different team,” Ripari said.

“The standard was definitely lifted up from Youth Girls, but compared to Stingrays or Vic Metro it’s not as different, just the size of the girls and obviously the ability they have.

“The kicks and the handballs are so much further, the tackles are so much harder, but the game is sort of the same

Kayla Ripari made the most of her maiden VFL match - taking to the field with Cranbourne.

155505 Picture: JARROD POTTER speed - so that was good that it wasn’t that different.”

While she didn’t get a chance to sing the Eagles song - following the 130-point loss to St Kilda - she’s keen to return and make the Eagles her VFL home for her remaining four senior matches this year as well as looking towards her footy future and the heights

that are opening up for female footballers.

“Kris (Smith, Cranbourne coach) has already asked me to play a couple more games and hopefully get the five games I’m allowed with the senior club out of them and give me a good opportunity for next year when I have to go up,” Ripari said.

“You just start to realise what’s out there with the opportunities that are right in front of you - they’re starting to open up.”

Her 2016 soared after a maiden outing on the MCG - in Vic Metro’s 95-point demolition of Western Australia in the Youth Girls national championships grand final, following her

first flag in Dandenong’s Youth Girls Academy win over Sandringham.

“That was ridiculous - you actually can’t describe how it felt,” Ripari said.

“You’re out there and thinking ‘wow, this is massive’.

“Even though the crowd wasn’t that huge ... it was just an amazing opportunity and experience.

“Even with the Stingrays championships the girls just stepped up - compared to the prior games throughout the four-match series - and to be a part of it ... to be besides those girls who were there you start to realise the talent is there and you’ve got to step up and make something out of something happen.

“The boys can do it ... why can’t we?”

She can feature in five VFL matches this season and hopes to improve throughout all of them, before returning full-time to Cranbourne’s Youth Girls team as its captain.

“We have so many new girls (at Cranbourne Youth Girls) and just for them to keep going is important - big step up for them having never played, to coming up against teams like Beaconsfield or Lyndhurst.

“Even if we don’t win the cup, it’s just about making it as far as we can with finals ... making a grand final and getting a good result out of it, but if they make prelims, semis and just keep pushing through that then it will be a great effort.

“Get all my five games in the VFL at Cranny and start getting involved in the draft picks and stuff for further years to come - keep pushing forward and hope for the best.”

Thriller as Country falls

By JARROD POTTER AFL NATIONAL UNDER-18 CHAMPIONSHIPS - ROUND 2 IT WAS a tale of two directions on Monday as Vic Metro fought back against Vic Country in a home-state thriller.

In the age-old battle between the big smoke and the bush - this time held on a perfect winter’s day at Simonds Stadium, Geelong - Vic Metro managed to turn around a 20-point, threequarter-time deficit to snare the miraculous two-point triumph.

It started well enough for the Country boys. Tommy Jok - featuring in his second Vic Country campaign - stole the show in the first quarter alongside Dandenong team-mate Myles Poholke.

Jok would have his match hampered by a collarbone injury though, leaving the side another rotation down at the death knock as Sam Fowler (hip) had to leave the field too.

North Ballarat’s Hugh McCluggage (three goals) alongside familiar faces Josh Battle and Ben Ainsworth - back in the mix after serving his four-week suspension - set the stage in the first term as they reaped the rewards of lace-out reception.

Will Brodie had an assisting hand in the last three Vic Country goals of the term - with the Murray ball magnet racking it up across half-forward, slotting it onto the chest of Jarrod Berry, who dished off to Braidon Blake for the third of the term, as well as giving Willem Drew and Poholke a chance in front of the sticks.

From a 22-point buffer at the first break, Vic Country started to fade

Oscar Clavarino makes a flying spoil at Skilled Stadium. 155490 away. The best efforts of Vic Country started to recede in the second stanza.

Reece Piper and Oscar Clavarino provided a one-two Berwick punch through the back half in the first two terms, but there was too few adhering to the team tasks as Vic Metro responded in a massive fashion.

The third term belonged to Morwell’s finest, Ainsworth (four goals) - who slotted four majors in an extraordinary display.

Picture: JARROD POTTER

Showing the form that earned him All Australian honours in 2015, Ainsworth was electric in the forward half - whether on the lead, taking contested grabs or doing it himself at ground level. Vic Metro had no answers to his ironclad attack and in tandem with Brodie, Battle and Jarrod Korewha, really dictated terms.

Vic Metro booted two against traffic, but by and large its third-quarter impact was nowhere to be found.

Metro booted the first three of the

last, with easy handballs out the back giving Tim Taranto and Jordan Lynch a chance to slash the margin, before a massive pack grab in the square from Dylan Clarke put it back to four.

It left Vic Country to fight it out to the line in the final 15 minutes with the lead going back and forth.

Metro’s Callum Brown got the snap out of the back of the pack to take the slender lead, before Mitch McCarthy and Poholke combined at the other end to regain a five-point margin.

One last roll of the dice fell Vic Metro’s way in the last 70 seconds.

Jaidyn Stephenson booted it long to the square where Daniel Venables floated across to pluck it out of thin air and seal the match winner.

“Probably was just a game of chances - but we really focused on our chances after the match against WA last week,” Vic Country coach Paul Henriksen said.

“For three quarters we were OK then they kicked nine or 10 goals last week and we didn’t give a whimper.

“So really the emphasis this week was on effort and bringing it to the table - so in a funny way I was happy we brought that but you can’t be happy losing games of footy as it’s not that sort of business.”

Henriksen praised Brodie’s in and under efforts and was impressed with Ainsworth’s second half in particular.

Vic Country’s chances to retain the national championship have all but faded away following the loss. The Country side has a bye in the third round before it hosts South Australia on Friday 24 June at Etihad Stadium from 12.35pm.

20. WHAT was the nick-name of early Australian cricket fast bowler Frederick Spofforth?

MAKING the most out of 2016, Tom Jok has ticked all the right boxes.

With no school footy or major injuries halting his run at TAC Cup and Vic Country duties this year, Jok, 19, from Pakenham, has been in superb nick through the first eight rounds at Dandenong.

Averaging 20 touches, five marks and four tackles a match, the Beaconsfield/Dandenong Stingrays roaming wingman did more than enough to earn a second campaign with Vic Country’s Under 18s.

Despite the side’s win-loss record not looking as impressive as last season, after two early losses, Jok has relished his second chance to impress the football world.

Jok was on song early for Vic Country in its Queen’s Birthday clash against Vic Metro at Simonds Stadium.

An electric first term set the stage for Jok, as he was seemingly part of every passage through Vic country’s amazing five-goal opening quarter, but his match was derailed by a shoulder complaint.

Despite the injury, Jok was pleased with his performance racking up 16 possessions and five tackles in the two-point loss - but the heartbreak of a devastating defeat was at the front of his mind.

“It’s good individually so far - playing my role and doing what I can for the team so far - but it’s just disappointing

Tom Jok lays a tackle in a resounding first half for Vic Picture: JARROD POTTER Country on Monday. 155490 that we had our second loss in a row,” Jok said. “It’s pretty devastating - the WA loss was just down to who could be harder for longer and obviously they were and were more powerful, physical and showed it on the scoreboard.

“With this game today (Monday) it was a grind out and who could take their opportunities - and Metro probably deserved it.”

After he was overlooked in the 2015 AFL national and rookie drafts, Jok has set about ramping up all aspects of his footy this time around and seizing the opportunity he’s been received again.

“That’s the thing - I’m just trying to add a bit of consistency in my game and so if I can start well and just need to finish well and that’s something I’m working on,” Jok said.

“I’ve enjoyed every moment of the second chance.

“I wasn’t around as much

this time last year, just due to injury and school footy - but I’ve got a second chance and another go at it now and it’s a great opportunity and I’m doing everything I can to take it.”

Vic Country coach Paul Henriksen was impressed with Jok’s efforts across his two Vic Country seasons and his absence on Monday for long stretches of the clash really hampered the side’s fightback.

“Really hurt us while he was off the ground - with a shoulder injury for a while, a collarbone - that hurt us as the way it was,” Henriksen said.

“He’s been quite good over the first two games, so I think there’s still another work in progress but he’s a likely type.”

Jok has two more possible Vic Country outings against South Australia and the Allies to round out the championships before returning to Dandenong for remainder of his last TAC Cup season.

Pies steam-roll Scorpions

By JARROD POTTER VFL - ROUND 9 STORMED on their home soil, Casey Scorpions left the arena muddied, bloodied and beaten by a fleet-footed Collingwood.

The anticipation of a marquee televised match at Casey Fields didn’t live up to its billing as Collingwood steam-rolled the hosts in the wet-weather slug-out.

After a captivating back-andforth first term, with neither side truly seizing their chances early on, the match petered out for Casey.

Tim Smith’s early goal proved a bookend for the Scorpions, as Ben Newton managed to boot the side’s second and final major in the fourth term.

After he was unceremoniously dropped again, following last week’s loss to Port Adelaide, Collingwood forward Travis Cloke (two goals) made the most of his latest VFL outing.

Casey skipper Jack Hutchins had the hard task manning up on the premiership winning forward, but had good support with chopouts from Declan Keilty and Mitch White.

Cloke snagged two for the day, dished off another and generally attacked anything within the Pies’ forward-50 to impress the sea of fans and not-quite fans which followed him from end to end.

Across the board Casey had difficultly halting the Magpies’ march - with AFL-listed duo Adam Oxley

and James Aish starring across the paddock.

Four from the Pies in the final term shut the door on Casey’s chances and left the Scorpions with their second loss of the year and concerningly their second loss against a VFL top four side in 2016.

“It was just a tough day,” Casey coach Justin Plapp said. “Certainly a really wet-weather day of football and our players didn’t adjust quickly enough.

“Collingwood were clearly better around the ball and played the conditions better than we did.

“There were patches in the game where we showed that we had the game on our terms, but we had an inability to score and goals became really crucial on the day like that, so all respect goes to them.”

Keilty was best afield for his defensive efforts - and is quickly playing his way into AFL draft reckoning this year - alongside Viv Michie, Hutchins, Colin Garland and Jake Spencer.

Matt Jones (32 possessions), Michie (27) and Alex Neal-Bullen (22) led the stat-sheet for Casey on a tricky day on field.

Plapp praised Hutchins efforts against his powerhouse opponent, showing his credentials as one of the VFL’s best on the last line.

“Jack is probably one of the most in form defenders in the competition and showed why he was on an AFL list,” Plapp said. “His role that he did on Cloke was very

mature and very admirable role he played.”

Sliding back to second on the VFL ladder, Casey heads up the hill to face North Ballarat on Saturday as part of a big month on the road.

“That’s a challenge in itself - we have had a lot of home games and had good results - but now we’ve got to do it on the road now,” Plapp said. “The North Ballarat trip is the hardest of the lot - as we’ve travelled there a few times in the last few years and haven’t performed well.

The Scorpions hosted a VFL Women’s curtain raiser, which ended with Darebin snaring a closely-contested 4.3(27) to 2.3(15) victory over Melbourne University in trying early morning conditions.

Elite program for female footballers

By JARROD POTTER THE Scorpions have opened the doors to female footballers with the announcement of an Elite Development Program set to begin this month.

Providing for elite sportswomen in the south east, the Scorpions’ six-week program is open to all present and past female footballers and those who currently participate in other sports but are thinking about a potential switch.

The program will cover all the aspects involved in playing the great Victorian pastime - skill development, game day education, nutrition, high performance testing and leadership.

Casey Scorpions general manager Matthew Young said the program is designed to boost the region’s female football ranks and give an insight into what it takes to go from local footy, to the VFL and hopefully for some, onwards to the National Women’s League (NWL).

“With the way women’s footy is headed - not only the AFL, but also locally and with the VFL coming on board this year - we see it as an opportunity to provide some of our resources to sportswomen,” Young said. “Both those who play the game and those who are interested in it and giving them an opportunity to see what the next level is about.

“We can offer them a great deal of development and give them some ideas about what the VFL slash AFL is about and provide a few different avenues

Now, it’s back to the footy

By DAVID NAGEL AFTER a stuttering start, the South East Football Netball League begins an uninterrupted run through to the finals on Saturday with Cranbourne and Beaconsfield stealing the spotlight at Casey Fields.

Only two rounds have been played in the last month, with representative duties on May 21, and last week’s Queen’s Birthday weekend giving most

players some time to rest up.

In the clash of the Eagles Cranbourne, coming off a fantastic last-start performance against Doveton, should be too strong for Beaconsfield, while reigning champs Berwick should have no problem with Pakenham at Edwin Flack Reserve.

The final game could be interesting, with Narre Warren taking on an improving Officer

outfit at Kalora Park. The Magpies, despite the expected challenge, should still be too strong.

Tooradin has the bye while Doveton and Hampton Park played their Round 9 contest in the season opener on Good Friday.

Ladder: Berwick 32, Narre Warren 24, Cranbourne 24, Beaconsfield 24, Doveton 24, Officer 16, Pakenham 12, Tooradin-Dalmore 4, Hampton Park 4.

Tough day as Eagles dare Sportswomen across the south east will have the chance to join the Casey Scorpions' ranks with an Elite Development Program about to commence. 155468 Picture: JARROD POTTER and some of the stuff the women haven’t experienced before.”

With the reigning Youth Girls Academy champions Dandenong - on their doorstep as well as an array of successful South East Juniors and VWFL clubs scattered throughout the region, Young believed the area’s sportswomen are incredibly well placed and need further opportunities to take the step to the next level.

“The south east is probably one of the most competitive areas from around Victoria - the South East Juniors Youth Girls, Stingrays Youth Girls are really strong competitions and sides and we want to build on

that with girls and women who want to keep playing,” Young said. “We want to entice them to keep playing, plus we also want to target some women who are playing soccer, netball, tennis and get them to try it out.”

An information night will be held at 7pm on Wednesday 22 June at Casey Fields function room and will cover the program’s goals and give all participants an insight into the facilities and programs on offer.

By JARROD POTTER VFL WOMEN’S - ROUND 8 CRANBOURNE’S resolve and tenacity held up against St Kilda in the trenches and everywhere except the scoreboard.

It was a happy homecoming of sorts for former Cranbourne coach Shaun Smith, now at the helm of St Kilda, as his side surged at Casey Fields, using the footy to its utmost in a rampaging 21-goal haul.

Hayley Wildes, Corrine Cullis and Alicia Johnson had their fair share of possession, but as soon as it was slammed into the Cranbourne forward half ... it bounced straight back out.

Eagles’ defender Steph Binder had the toughest job in women’s footy on Sunday, manning up against AFL full forward Moana Hope (11 goals).

“It’s hard - we had so much of the footy we just can’t turn possession into goals,” Cranbourne coach Kris Smith said. “That’s our problem at the moment.”

Cranbourne heads off to battle Melbourne Uni on Sunday.

Sporty Mazda has the power

By DEREK OGDEN THE latest iteration of the Mazda MX-5 compact two-seater sportscar has won more than 65 major international awards, including the prestigious European Red Dot Best of the Best award which recognises exceptionally ground-breaking design, the UK Car of the Year, and the 2015-2016 Japan Car of the Year.

It comes in two variants – Roadster and Roadster GT, with the 2.0-litre version rolling on 17-inch alloy wheels, as opposed to the 1.5’s 16-inch, and sporting daytime running lights.

Designers were told to come up with proportions that would, short of plastic surgery, make occupants stand out and look good, especially with the top open and windows down.

The front and rear overhangs are some of the shortest on the market; the cabin was moved slightly to the rear to match the position of the occupants’ heads, and the hip point of the seats lowered in conjunction with the new design’s low centre of gravity.

The new rear design, with its Ushaped rear combination lamp cluster and round tail lamps, hark back to previous generations of the MX-5.

The layout is plain and simple and is aimed at giving the driver real opentop sportscar pleasure.

The steering wheel and three-meter

Model range

The MX-5 Roadster 2.0-litre takes on 17-inch wheels with the addition of a more powerful engine. cluster are on a single axis directly in front of the driver while round air-conditioning vents flank the meters aimed at the driver.

The meters, all trimmed with satin chrome rings, consist of a large analogue tachometer in the centre, a speedometer on the right and an information display on the left.

The tacho and speedo feature vertical zero position needles; the water temperature gauge covers a higher temperature range to support spirited sports driving.

Of two interior leather options, black represents pure sportiness, while

the Sport Tan presents a luxury character with good looks.

Metallic finish is used on air-conditioning control dials and steering wheel spokes to attract the eyes or express rigidity.

New Mazda MX-5 connects with the latest technology via the Commander control on the centre console, or by using voice commands.

Mazda’s MZD Connect provides hands-free phone and can be used for text messages.

It can read aloud the latest tweets in the owner’s Twitter feed or the latest Facebook news feed and allows ‘like’

With standard six-speaker, or a nine-speaker Bose premium sound system, in addition to standard AM/ FM radio, and in conjunction with smartphone apps, it also offers access to Aha by Harman, Stitcher and Pandora.

The satellite navigation system, with smartphone connected, can also search for destinations and display the weather on route and live traffic.

The engine, according to the maker, also delivers fuel consumption of 6.9

litres per 100 kilometres on the combined urban / highway cycle.

The use of high-strength steel and ultra-high tensile steel around the centre of the cabin, along with highstrength aluminium in the front bumper beam, reduce weight while achieving greater strength.

Front and side airbags are standard across the MX-5 range while active safety includes Dynamic stability control, Anti-lock Braking with Electronic Brake-force Distribution, Emergency Brake Assist, Emergency Stop Signal and Hill Launch Assist.

The MX-5 is by no means a perfect vehicle. With the fabric roof up it’s a matter of doubling up to get into the car; once in, there‘s no guarantee occupants can make themselves comfortable, so limited is the space.

The steering wheel and its surrounds deserve a special mention.

With a diameter of 366 mm, the steering wheel features a sharp, compact look, three slim spokes coated in satin chrome, and a grip covered in black leather with red stitching The grip and rim are designed to enable quick, precise steering wheel operation when negotiating winding roads.

The Mazda range is available for test drive at Bruce Clough Mazda, Princes Highway, Nar Nar Goon.
