Stolen valour “
There are no words to describe someone who could do this. Especially to an elderly lady, who lives alone, who is vulnerable; to steal something so sentimental...
Medals similar to those stolen from an elderly war widow in Cranbourne North.
Detective Senior Constable Michelle Chiang is urging those who stole the medals to return them to their Picture: VICTORIA STONE-MEADOWS rightful owner. 167399
DSC Chiang said while stolen war medals had been known to turn up in secondhand stores and pawn shops, she was asking the public to keep an eye on online marketplaces for them as well. “Investigations are ongoing and
we urge anyone who may know the whereabouts of these medals to return them; drop them off to your nearest police station. Any secondhand dealers that are aware of someone trying to sell medals of this description, please contact
police or Crime Stoppers.” “Anyone who sees them on buy, swap and sell sites or social media sites, please contact Crime Stoppers,” she said. Investigators have released images of the medals in the hope that someone recognises

A sick, elderly woman from Cranbourne North has been left devastated after thieves stole two sets of priceless war medals from her home while she was in hospital. The woman was rushed to hospital on 3 March and returned to her Kellett Street home on 7 March to find the six World War II medals missing, along with some jewellery. The 76-year-old, who was too unwell to speak with media, has lost the only relics she had left to remember both her late father and husband. Both had served in the Australian Army. Investigating police officer, Detective Senior Constable Michelle Chiang said this crime had left her speechless. “There are no words to describe someone who could do this,” DSC Chiang said. “Especially to an elderly lady, who lives alone, who is vulnerable; to steal something so sentimental ...” The six medals that were stolen from the house include an African Star, Pacific Star, Star ’39-’45, Defence Medal, War Medal ’39-’45 and Australian Service Medal ’29’45. Police are asking anyone with information about where the medals are to come forward and restore them to a widow who is grieving over this loss. “She is not of good health and every conversation we have about this, it is quite distressing for her,” DSC Chiang said. “These were the only things she had left to remember her last father and also her late husband by.”

Graffiti shame By Cam Lucadou-Wells
Casey Council is set to install signs designed to shame the State Government into cleaning up a heavily-graffitied rail bridge in Narre Warren. On 18 April, in a motion led by mayor Sam Aziz, the council approved the signs at the Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road overpass to read: “The ugly state of this railway overpass is the responsibility of the State Government.” The signs would then instruct readers to contact the three Casey-based state MPs Luke Donnellan, Judith Graley and Jude Perera and provide their office phone numbers to “get it fixed”. The council will also issue a daily tweet on its Twitter account until the matter was resolved. At the council meeting, mayor Sam Aziz vented his “extreme disgust” that the “vandalism” had yet to be removed from the bridge near the council’s under-construction $125 million Bunjil Place. “The council does not accept the nonsense that has been peddled which suggests that the railway service may have to be stopped for this graffiti to be cleaned, given that it’s completely external to the train tracks with protective railings above it, in any case,” Cr Aziz’s motion stated. Cr Aziz said the rail asset authority VicTrack had not only refused to remove the “ugly eye-sore” on Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road, Narre Warren, but rejected Casey’s offered solution - to lease the bridge walls as advertising space. A council report on 18 April stated VicTrack had declined due to its policy of not allowing “third party assets” affixed to its railway bridges. Cr Aziz said the authority had stated it only removed graffiti if it threatened public safety. This failed to match Casey’s 24-hour graffiti removal response policy, he said. “Councillors, this has been nothing short of a disgrace.”
SERVICE QUALITY ADVICE
By Cam Lucadou-Wells
Casey Council has stepped up its war on graffiti tags on the Narre WarrenPicture: STEWART CHAMBERS Cranbourne Road overpass. 96949 Further in Cr Aziz’s motion, he stated: “The council feels most embarrassed given the imminent opening of Bunjil Place and the expectation of millions of visitors to the City of Casey every year, and the recent trade mission into China which will result in international visitors, that this ugly public eyesore remains unrectified by its State Government owners.” Councillor Rosalie Crestani added to the motion that Casey would lobby the state’s Department of Justice for tougher penalties to the “highest possible level”. Fines should be increased, even jail should be considered, Cr Crestani said. She said the crime was serious because
taxpayers footed a damage bill of thousands of dollars of each year. The council will also write to the State Government - and the three local state MPs - against the “obvious passing of the buck” for “what should be a simple clean-up of graffiti”. Under the motion, the council would also “invite” the government to advise how it would “halt Melbourne’s progression into looking like a poor version of New York in the 1970s”. It would also seek an update from the State Government on progress of “countervandalism measures” on the Monash Freeway.

Cr Smith, though not supporting or opposing the rooms, said opportunities for clean syringes and counselling might be offered. Councillors Rosalie Crestani and Milla Gilic, in rejecting the rooms, gave examples of close people who had died while on methadone treatment. “It would be stupid to even dabble with an idea that it’s OK to go in a room and use heroin and other drugs,” Cr Gilic said. Cr Gary Rowe, who as a State MP had investigated the issue on an international scale, said “safe” injecting rooms was a misnomer. Even in these rooms, users could be killed immediately by a “hot shot”, Cr Rowe said. They attracted drug dealers in the neighbourhood and “don’t give our children or anyone else’s children a degree of safety whatsoever”. “From what I see here tonight, the consensus of this council is we don’t want it in City of Casey.” Mayor Sam Aziz said the motion was based on politics, and didn’t require more technical information from experts - who were in any case divided on the issue. “I’m willing to give my right arm if 90 per cent of residents don’t agree with this (motion).” Meanwhile, council officers were instructed to report back to councillors on the issue by June.

Casey has declared it is “strongly” opposed to any proposed safe injecting rooms in the municipality. Councillor Susan Serey, who introduced the motion at an 18 April meeting, said Cranbourne had been mentioned in State Parliament as an illicit-drug hotspot. The suburb might be one of the first locations if “drug injecting rooms” were introduced, she said. The injecting-room approach was “soft”, encouraged illicit drug use and drug trafficking and sent the “wrong message” to young people. The issue was better tackled by more drug rehabilitation facilities, with Victoria well behind NSW’s 800 available beds, Cr Serey said. The motion was opposed by councillors Tim Jackson, Damien Rosario and Wayne Smith - who called for a council report on the issue prior to voting. “My dissent isn’t that I’m in favour of drug injecting rooms, but that we have proper information in front of us,” Cr Jackson said. He noted a State Parliament inquiry being held on the issue was due to report back in March 2018. “I would be interested in what it says before I form my view. “Ultimately, it’s a decision for the State Government, not for council.”

State hoards GAIC funds By Victoria Stone-Meadows Shadow planning minister David Davis has lashed out at the Andrews Government for reinvesting only a pittance of Growth Area Infrastructure Contribution (GAIC) funds collected in the Casey-Cardinia region. Just over $2 million has been reinvested in the Casey-Cardinia region after a combined GAIC collection from the region raised $59.3 million at the end of 30 June 2016, according to the 2016 DELWP report. Mr Davis has accused the premier of hoarding the money and not providing investment returns to communities in Casey and Cardinia. “There is money available to relieve pressure on suburban families, but Daniel Andrews is refusing to help,” he said. “Under Daniel Andrews there are always winners and losers, and today the losers are everyday Victorians.” The 2016 annual report from the Department on Environment, Land, Water and Planning shows that only 3.4 per cent of the money collected has been spent in the Casey-Cardinia growth area. Money is raised through the GAIC when land in designated growth areas is bought, subdivided or a permit for building on large blocks of land is applied for. The GAIC money is then set aside for community and public transport infrastructure projects in the growth areas it was collected from. However, DELWP has confirmed in the 2016’17 financial year, the infrastructure spending of GAIC collections will ramp up. “So far this financial year, the Victorian Government has announced $19.2 million worth of projects from GAIC to build infrastructure where it is most needed, including $8.5 million to purchase land for six new ambulance stations,” a DELWP spokesperson said.
Victorian Shadow Minister for Planning David Davis wants to see more money invested in the Casey-Cardinia region.
“We Understand Every Goodbye is Unique” •Professional&PersonalService
By Casey Neill Frogs are flourishing throughout Casey. Melbourne Water is calling on residents to leap into action and help to keep an eye on them. With the City of Casey, it hosted a Frogs of Casey walk and talk in Hallam on Wednesday 12 April. “That’s really going to showcase the frog species they can find in the area,” Melbourne Water Waterwatch co-ordinator James Frazer said beforehand. He also taught attendees to use their phones to identify and report frogs, and create frogfriendly habitat in their own back yard. “Frogs in Casey are quite diverse - you can find 14 of Melbourne’s 16 species there,” Mr Frazer said. “From creeks to wetlands and patches of bushland, Casey’s a great area for frogs. “You’ve got a really rare frog - the southern toadlet. “That species is a really fascinating frog that I’ll be telling people a bit more about on the night.” He said that most frogs in Melbourne called in spring, but the southern toadlet called in autumn. “Now’s a great time for people in Casey to get out and try to hear the calls of this frog. “The frog is distributed all over Casey.” To catch a glimpse - or hear a croak - from the amphibians he recommended heading out to local patches of bushland and wetlands, “areas that get inundated by rain in autumn”.

The rare southern toadlet. Pictures: PETER ROBERTSON “One of the best ways they can help frogs is to get involved in Melbourne Water’s frog census program,” he said. “It’s been running for 16 years now and is a communityled citizen science program to monitor frogs. “That helps us understand where the frogs are in Casey and what species are out there. “Last year we launched a
new frog census app.” Phone users can download the app free of charge and has led to an increase in frog recording. “We had about 18 months’ worth of frog reports come in in three weeks,” Mr Frazer said. He urged Casey residents with an interest in frogs to consider reducing chemical use in their garden, controlling their pets and getting involved in friends and Landcare groups. The Frogs of Casey event will run from 6.30pm to 8.30pm at the Hallam Scout Hall, Gunns Road, Hallam, on Wednesday 12 April. Bring sturdy shoes, a torch and weather-appropriate clothing. Call 131 722 to book a place. Visit www.melbournewater. com.au/frogcensus to get involved with frog monitoring.

The method that GAIC funds are administered has also been reformed this financial year to ensure a more collaborative approach to funding allocation. “The new process ensures that important state infrastructure is provided to growth areas, in time to meet community needs.” “Applications for funding in the 2017-’18 financial year have been sought from portfolio ministers and are now under consideration.” “The government expects expenditures to catch up to revenue in the coming rounds and for the fund to deliver on its original intention over 20 years.”

Our robots set to take on the world By Victoria Stone-Meadows The VEX robotics team from Hillcrest College in Clyde North is heading to the USA to compete against 30 other countries in an international robotics championship. The Hillcrest VEX team will be competing to defend the title they first won at the world championship in 2015. The team became back-to-back Australian champions after winning the Australian VEX robotics competition in Wangaratta in December 2016. The team received an award for ex-
cellence at the completion last year and were selected to represent Australia at the VEX world Championship in Louisville, Kentucky. The competition is the largest STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) event in the world with 500 teams from over 30 countries competing over four days. The VEX team from Hillcrest will be competing against teams from Brazil, Canada, China, Colombia, India, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, the United Kingdom
and the USA. Head of science at Hillcrest Simon Taylor said the team would be taking their best ever robot to the states to beat out the fierce competition. “To prepare for the world competition the team has worked tirelessly to develop a new robot, one that is hopefully competitive at an international standard,” he said. “The students are looking forward to demonstrating how much they learnt from last year’s competition and their goal is to rank in the top 30 of their division.”

Casey Council’s Enviro News Team has recently released a very disappointing autumn edition of Casey’s “Enviro News". Readers are not informed about the serious risks presented by climate change and global warming to the environment, rather the bulletin is headed by an image of an Anzac soldier and a reference to their sacrifices and native Australian trees along Casey’s Avenue of Honour. The fact is there is absolutely no historical link between Anzac soldiers and any respect by them for the natural environment. Many thousands of lives were sacrificed (and the environment compromised) because of Australia’s subservience to British imperialism in WWI. The individuals and groups who did a lot, indirectly, for the natural environment, and peace, by successfully organising against referenda for compulsory military conscription,during WWI, are not even mentioned at Casey’s Avenue of Honour. How bad is that? Moreover, for a bulletin that’s supposed be about our environment, there is no mention of the biggest threat we face today. Global warming has the potential to impact on the very process that creates energy and ultimately sustains all life on earth, photosynthesis. Instead of Enviro News readers being informed about climate science, we are asked to believe that militarism and the Anzacs were actually good for the environment. Really? John Glazebrook, Endeavour Hills.
AS our national day of remembrance, Anzac Day will be commemorated by us soon, I thought it might be timely to share with you a little history of this special day. Originally, 25 April every year was to honour the members of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (Anzac) who fought at Gallipoli against the Ottoman Empire in World War I. It has since become a national day of remembrance for all Australians and New Zealanders who have served and died in all wars, conflicts and peacekeeping operations. In 1915, Australian and New Zealand forces formed part of an allied expedition that set out to capture the Gallipoli Peninsula, which was according to a plan by Winston Churchill, to open the way to the Black Sea for the Allied navies. Upon arrival at Gallipoli on 25 April, the Anzacs met a fierce resistance from the Ottoman Army, which was commanded by Mustafa Kemal (later known as Ataturk). Whilst the objective was to capture Constantinople and give the allied forces a strategic advantage in its fight against Germany, the allies reached a stalemate and after an eight-month campaign, were evacuated, during which time both sides suffered heavy casualties, including 8709 Australians and 2721 New Zealanders giving their lives for our countries. This campaign bequeathed an intangible and powerful legacy, which has later become known as Anzac Legend and is often described as being the moment of birth of the nationhood of Australia and New Zealand. Perhaps equally remarkable was the sense of spirit shown by the then leader of Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, with the words that were delivered to the first Australians, New Zealanders and British people to visit the Gallipoli battlefields in 1934. The words have since been inscribed in a monolith at Anzac

Tenancy and consumer help services in the south-east have received a State Government funding boost which will see services in Cranbourne, Pakenham and Dandenong strengthened. More than $18 million over four years will be invested by the Andrews Government in the delivery of local assistance and advocacy services across the state. As part of the funding, $11.4 million will be shared among 13 community agencies including the Peninsula Community Legal Centre (PCLC). The PCLC advocates and provides advice for tenants across the south-east and bayside regions of Melbourne. We provide information, advice, casework and representation services to private tenants,” PCLC Jackie Galloway said. “Often we see tenants with issues with notices to vacate, repairs, rent, bonds, and many other matters.” Ms Galloway said this funding from the State Government would allow the PCLC to provide timely and much-needed advice to tenants in the area. “With increasing rents it makes
it very difficult for those on low incomes to find affordable and appropriate rental properties,” she said. “We welcome the increase in resources to the region with will enable us to enhance our advocacy services to tenants.” According to Mission Australia, 15 per cent of homeless people seek help because of financial difficulties and 12 per cent are in housing crisis. They also state 10 per cent of people who are homeless have been living in inadequate or inappropriate dwelling conditions and a shortage of affordable housing and declining home ownership rates also contributes to the nation’s homelessness problem. Minister for Consumer Affairs, Gambling and Liquor Regulation Marlene Kairouz said the funding to community housing service providers would protect vulnerable members of the community. “These community organisations will assist and advocate on behalf of our most vulnerable renters and consumers.” “It isn’t always easy understanding your rights as a tenant or a consumer, so it’s vital Victorians get help and advice where and when they need it.”

Dignity at stake, so we’ll all do our part By Victoria Stone-Meadows Cindy Warren from Casey FM has teamed up with lifestyle coach Sommer Louise for a Dignity Drive across the City of Casey. During the month of April, three Coles stores in Casey will have drop-off points for sanitary items that will then be passed on to homeless and vulnerable women. Ms Warren from Casey FM has been involved with the charity ‘Share the Diginty’ for two years, and in that time has collected and donated thousands of packets of pads and tampons for the cause. “When I first found out homeless women were using the last of their money to buy tampons instead of food, it ripped my heart out,” she said. “I knew I needed to do something, and I don’t want to just suit in radio studio and play music, I want to use my mic to make a difference to women.” Sommer Louise became involved with the drive after appearing as a guest on Ms Warren’s radio show. “We had her waiting in reception, and she heard me speaking about share the dignity and jumped straight on board,” Ms Warren said. “I couldn’t have signed her up quick enough.” Ms Louise said she was shocked when she found out how homeless and vulnerable women manage their periods, and couldn’t wait to get involved with the drive for sanitary items.

Kellie Piening, Sommer Louise, Cindy Warren and Laura Wootton are working together to bring dignity Picture: GARY SISSONS back to Casey’s most vulnerable women. 167031 “The key point is 85,000 women in Australia used homeless shelters in the past 12 months due to lack of funds and domestic violence, and they often resort to newspaper and makeshift sanitary solutions each month,” she said. “Sanitary items are something in this day and age women of all ages should have access to, regardless of their situation.” The local recipients of the ‘Share the Dignity’ drive this year will be Transit Soup Kitchen in Narre Warren and the Cranbourne Information and Support Service (CISS). Executive officer of CISS Leanne Petrides said in the 2015-’16
financial year, CISS provided a range of assistance and support services to almost 14,500 people, and referred 765 people for assistance with housing-related issues. “We are so pleased to be the recipient of goods donated by Share the Dignity - pads and tampons are essential items for women, and are very expensive,” Ms Petrides said. “For many women, they are unaffordable, and they have to make a choice to pay bills, purchase food, or purchase sanitary items.” Ms Petrides said the capacity to use disposable sanitary products was particularly important for women who were homeless or who lived
in rooming houses with shared facilities as they did not have access to launder re-useable items. “Some women and girls can be excluded from their education or employment if they do not have access to appropriate sanitary products,” she said. “The fact that ‘Share the Dignity’ donates these items to us means that we do not have to purchase them, and can redirect funds to purchase other necessary items like food and baby formula.” To donate to the ‘Dignity Drive’, buy an extra packet of pads or tampons and drop them into the collection bins at Coles stores in Eden

China mission lights up By Cam Lucadou-Wells City of Casey’s controversial mission to China has possibly landed a largescale lantern festival staged next to Bunjil Place next year. The lantern festival is hoped to open for up to five weeks in autumn or spring 2018 on the site of the to-be demolished Casey Civic Centre in Magid Way. If it goes ahead, the event would be a tourist and jobs attraction, Casey mayor Sam Aziz said. During the 4-10 April trip, the Casey delegation met with Zigong Lantern Festival and Trade Company, which stages 300 such annual festivals in China. The company stages large shows internationally such as Lights of the World, Phoenix, in USA and Canada. Deputy mayor Wayne Smith, who was also part of the delegation, said the light installations including animals and iconic buildings would be on a similar scale to Frankston’s annual Sand Sculpting Australia event. Casey was keen to facilitate the multi-million-dollar show in partnership with other businesses, he said. “We need someone to take it on as an event, with Casey providing in-kind support,” Cr Smith said. “It’s such a big event that it’s not something the council could contemplate on its own.” Cr Aziz said the visit opened up doors to the “highest levels” of China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs. “We got a huge bang for our buck,” said Cr Aziz - who estimated that buck to be $16,000. He emphasised there was little time for sight-seeing. “We had a strong idea of what we
Casey could land a display similar to this Time Tunnel at Lights of the World, Phoenix, 2016. wanted to do. “There was surprise at the speed at which we achieved and how hungry China was for global friendship and partnership.” During the trip, a swiftly agreed letter-of-intent for establishing an economic partnership agreement between Casey and Dujiangyan City was created. There was interest from an Australian powdered-milk outlet in China in setting up a factory in Melbourne’s south-east, Cr Aziz said. The trip has meanwhile been condemned by Casey Residents and Ratepayers Association (CRRA) as an
“expensive and time-consuming endeavour”. CRRA president Arvo Talvik said the “wasteful” trip had unclear objectives and no accountability. Mr Talvik said the council was advised by an internal report in August 2015 that pursuit of a Chinese economic partnership would require “significant investment” and could take up to 10-20 years for real benefits to materialise. “It’s crazy that this wastefulness is happening, when the council keeps saying it is short of money and will need to put rates up in the future. “To date, council has paid consul-
tants Bastion S&GO $15,000 to help plan the trip. “We don’t know what other costs have been incurred, but if we included council officers’ wages for time spent working on this China partnership it would quite possibly be $100,000 or more.” Mr Talvik said if the trip led to more Chinese investment in an “already overheated” local housing market, it would be “doing more harm than good”. Cr Aziz said the mission’s delegation had achieved what normally took several visits by being hosted by the most senior tiers of Foreign Affairs.
According to the letter-of-intent with Dujiangyan, the agreement was based on “mutual equality and benefit” across “a number of sectors and industries”. Cr Aziz said on the technology front, however, China would “give us far more than what we can give them”. Dujiangyan is a manufacturing “powerhouse”, with a population of 652,000 and prospering from a 12.5 per cent GDP rise, he said. Its leaders were open to the city’s students being educated at Casey’s private schools as well as Chisholm Institute and Federation University’s nursing and aged-care courses. “There is remarkable wealth in the emerging affluent class of China who are looking to travel and looking for opportunities abroad.” The delegation also visited Australian Milk Bar, a business selling Australian dairy products and wine which had opened 70 outlets in China in the past year. Its owner had expressed interest in setting up a factory to make powdered milk for the Chinese market in Casey on the doorstep of Gippsland’s dairy region, Cr Aziz said. Other stops included the Huawei Corporation’s research and development centre in Shanghai and Chengdu province’s science park which hosts technological start-ups. “We were blown away by this place,” Cr Aziz said of the latter stop. “It reflected exactly our vision for creating Australia’s own Silicon Valley right in our backyard at Minta Farm in the City of Casey.” Cr Aziz said he and Cr Smith had put their entire $5000 councillor allowances for training-and-development towards funding the mission.

Sun fun on the run By Victoria Stone-Meadows
Charlotte gives it her all at the `Tooradin Primary School cross-country. 167078
On a clear autumn day at Tooradin Primary School, students grouped in their houses for the school’s annual cross-country carnival. Every student at the school from Prep to Grade 6 took part in the competition and ran to the best of their ability. Students in the younger grades completed an 800 metre course that introduced them to running longer distances. Grades 3 to 6 students ran a three-kilometre course which put the students’ fit-
ness and stamina to the test. From the students that participated in the cross country run, 48 will go on to represent Tooradin Primary School against other local schools in the district event. Tooradin Primary School PE teacher Mark Trounson said the cross-country event was possible because of the generous help of the school community. “Well done to all students who participated on the day and a massive thank you to staff and parents who helped in ensuring the day was a success,” he said.

Lego’s creative crew By Cam Lucadou-Wells You could say ‘everything is awesome’ for an 11-year-old Lego fanatic from Berwick who has landed his dream job. James is one of 12 children to have won a spot on the Creative Crew at the Legoland Discovery Centre, winning a year’s free pass to the newlyconstructed fantasy-land at Chadstone shopping centre. Already, he’s had an exclusive road-test of the centre’s giddy mix of attractions and 1.5 millionplus blocks. And he’s an enthusiastic fan of all of it, including interactive rides with laser pointers, a 4D cinema and a mini-Melbourne made of Lego blocks. In his 30-second video pitch for his spot on the crew, James breathlessly describes himself as “your biggest fan”. “I was born for Lego,” he said. “I breathe Lego and my life literally revolves around Lego.” As part of his ‘duties’, James will help show kids around at the centre’s grand opening on 18 April. He savoured the engineering challenges - such as building a car out of blocks to race down a timed track, or making structures to withstand a simulated earthquake. He raved about the 4D cinema that screens 3D films with further atmospheric ‘dimensions’ - like smoke, rain and wind - unleashed in the auditorium. He has barely taken off his crew’s ‘Lego Movie’-inspired orange vest. His obsession started with a small helicopter given to him as a fifth birthday gift. It’s blossomed into Ninjago, Nexo Knights and Batman. For his birthday, James’s father once built a ramp for James and his friends to race their Lego cars. By chance, the Lego Batman movie’s recent opening co-incided with his parents’ wedding anniversary. So mum and dad took out both kids to a gold class screening that night. “It was phenomenal!” James said.

LET’S TALK TOWNHOUSE LIVING CRANBOURNE EAST
BOUTIQUE ESTATE OFFERS MORE THE Parks Edge Estate in Cranbourne East is a centrally located boutique estate which features a development of 16 new townhouses. The estate is close to new schools, local amenities and boasts a newly built child care centre, according to SBG Building Group Sales Manager Claire Wagner. She said the whole development, which includes the four-bedroom double-storey and three bedroom triple-storey townhouses, was something special. Ms Wagner said the company, well
known as quality builders, hoped to have the townhouse development completed by the end of this year. She said the 16 townhouses were selling off the plan with more than half already sold. With more than 25 years of experience in residential and commercial construction, SBG Building Group prides itself in personal service and progressive quality design at an affordable, up-front price. And this development would be no
different, according to Ms Wagner, who said there would be attention to detail with many inclusions including stone benches, landscaping, porcelain tiles throughout and refrigerated cooling as well as all of the fixtures and fittings. For more information, contact Ms Wagner on 0418 882 190, visit at 17-21 Lineham Drive, Cranbourne East, (Mayfield Estate), or head online to www.superiorbuildinggroup. com.au.

Premmies in safe hands On the eve of Wear Green for Premmies Day, St John of God Berwick Hospital welcomed a gorgeous little girl born at 36 weeks. Even though her parents may not have been ready for her unexpected entry into the world, the hospital was indeed well equipped for Indiana’s early arrival. Given that St John of God Berwick Hospital has a level two special care nursery on site with eight consultant paediatricians who work in rotation and are on call 24 hours a day, premature babies born from about 34 weeks
onward and weighing 1700 grams can expect to be well cared for by the hospital’s qualified staff. Although premature birth remains a major source of getting some extra special attention from St John of God Hospital staff, it’s not the only one. Babies who might be experiencing breathing difficulties, jaundice, low blood sugar levels or temperature instability could also require the expertise of the hospital’s highly trained medical professionals. Following the birth of a baby at St John of God Berwick Hospital, parents
can be rest assured that they and their babies are in good hands. Soon babies will be delivered in a state-of-the-art maternity ward at the new Kangan Drive location in Berwick as well. With the hospital’s spacious, lightfilled private rooms promoting calm, peace and wellbeing, expectant parents will be spoilt with large modern en suite facilities and in-built accommodation for partners. A spa bath will also be available during and after delivery.
There will also be a focus on access to fresh air and outdoor spaces with a large balcony area for new and expecting parents. If that wasn’t enough, the daily happy hour with beverages and a variety of cakes, pastries, soft cheeses and biscuits will help support parents in those first few days. But it won’t be just the parents and babies who will be well cared for in the new location, St John of God Berwick Hospital will also host a children’s playground for siblings and young visitors to keep them entertained when the
arrival and excitement of a new family member starts to lose its appeal. The St John of God Berwick Hospital’s new location is set to open in late 2017. Anyone who has any questions about the redevelopment or who would like some information on the new maternity services being offered can visit sjog.org.au/berwickredevelopment or email info.berwick@sjog.org. For update information, follow St John of God Berwick Hospital on Facebook and Instagram.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST
Check out career paths By Victoria Stone-Meadows High school students from Casey and beyond will have the opportunity to flesh out their perfect career path at the 2017 South East Careers Expo and Try a Trade. The expo will give students and others a hands-on glimpse into a variety of careers and career paths they wish to take. Casey Mayor Sam Aziz said the expo would be the perfect setting for students to really get a handle on figuring out what they wanted to do in the future. “With interactive displays for people to try out, those who come along and take advantage will really get a feel for the type of work they’d like to do,” he said. “Getting a good feel for an industry, whether it be hairdressing or building, can help any young person decide if it’s something they would like to further explore.” “It’s the ideal way for young people to feel more informed when exploring a range of industries and occupations, and can also help them plan for an exciting future.” Cr Aziz also said the guidance and advice made accessible to those that attend would be invaluable. “Ensure your child doesn’t miss out on seeking the guidance and inspiration that will help them prepare for a bright and fulfilling post-school future, and check that their school is booked to attend,” he said. The 2017 South East Careers Expo and Try a Trade Expo will be on Tuesday 2 May from 9am to 3pm at the Cranbourne Racecourse. This event is made possible through support from the City of Casey, Casey Cardinia Shire Council, the South East Local Learning and Employment Network, Cranbourne Racecourse and media partner, Star News Group.

Sensory aide to learning By Victoria Stone-Meadows Lyndhurst Primary School will be getting a sensory garden for outdoor learning, thanks to local developer Wolfdene. The garden will have a number of different tactile and sensory experiences for students to engage with to aide educational and recreational leaning. Lyndhurst Primary School assistant principal Elaine Lesuik said the garden would be great for all students but particularly those with learning difficulties. “A space such as this will be particularly beneficial for those students who are struggling to learn within the traditional school curriculum and the overall benefits for the entire school will be immeasurable,” she said. “Having a sensory garden has been a goal for Lyndhurst Primary School for many years however, due to funding and other priorities, we never quite got there until Wolfdene Community came on board.” The estimated value of the project is about $40,000 and Wolfdene community have partnered with Frankston-based company, Glascott Landscape and Civil. The garden is expected to be completed by the end of April with students being able to utilise the new space in term two of the school year.

Cup debut for Aiava By Russell Bennett
Cranbourne Turf Club Chief Executive Neil Bainbridge has a lot to celebrate. 165563 Picture: ROB CAREW
Big bash at turf club’s 150th Cranbourne Turf Club turns 150 this week - and it wants everyone to join the party. The club open the gates to the racecourse for its big anniversary meeting this Friday 21 April, with free entry and plenty to entertain people of all ages. Major players from the past -committee members, trainers, jockeys, administrators and the like- have been invited to a special celebration in the upstairs dining room, with a cocktail style function with drinks, appropriately, at $1.50. “We’ve got a lot to celebrate,” said club chief executive Neil Bainbridge. “We are now the largest industry in the largest municipality in Victoria. “I would encourage everyone to come along and join the party.”
Narre Warren’s Destanee Aiava continues to take the tennis world by storm, with the 16-year-old named by Australian captain Alicia Molik to make her Fed Cup debut against Serbia this weekend. It marks just the latest chapter in a meteoric rise for Aiava, who is one of world tennis’ most impressive young talents. She announced her arrival on the global stage at the Brisbane International in January. Having defeated three higherranked opponents to qualify for the prestigious WTA Premier event, she went on to survive a nerve-wracking overnight rain delay to win her first round match against American Bethanie Mattek-Sands. Aiava was then awarded a wildcard into the senior draw of the Australian Open - becoming the first player born this century to compete in a Grand Slam. Molik said she was “delighted” to name Aiava alongside Daria Gavrilova, Ash Barty, and Casey Dellacqua for the must-win tie against Serbia. “We all saw Destanee’s talent and determination during the Aussie summer and I’m really looking forward to seeing her blossom and develop as she matures into a professional tennis player,” Molik said. She may seem shy and unassuming away from the court, but De-
Destanee Aiava, pictured here playing at Melbourne Park in the Australian summer, will line up for her Fed Cup debut this weekend. Picture: SUPPLIED stanee sure lets her power-packed game do all the talking on it. While her incredible physical fitness is a major asset, she describes her mental strength as the biggest key. “That side is just as strong as the physical for me," she told the Gazette in an extended interview a little over 18 months ago. And mum Rosie agrees.
“They both go hand-in-hand her coach changed her game to just improve the base of it and work on a few technical things like getting her timing right,” she added. The youngster is already known for her tireless work ethic and drive to succeed. When the Gazette first spoke with Aiava way back in 2012, she explained that she pinned a list of
Demons fade away in third quarter slump
VFL WILLIAMSTOWN 3.3 7.8 11.11 12.11(83)
By Nick Creely VFL REVIEW - ROUND 1 It was hard-fought but not to be for the Casey Demons down at Burbank Oval on Easter Monday, with Williamstown defeating the visitors by 24-points. It was all the Dees early, who converted their first major of the season via an excellent contested mark by Bayley Fritsch, before Angus Scott kicked two early goals and Cam Pedersen snagged a major, giving the Dees a seven point advantage at quarter-time. But the Seagulls hit back hard through some stellar transition of play, hitting the scoreboard regularly to take back the lead at half-time by 8 points. The Demons faded out of the contest in the third, with the Seagulls making the most of some costly turnovers in their forward half to fly out to a 31 point lead heading into the last change. But despite some fight in the lastterm, the Demons were simply unable to penetrate the plucky Seagulls’ defensive unit, foraying plenty of inside 50 entries to claim an impressive victory. With 12 AFL listed players turning out for the Demons on Monday, in comparison to the Gulls who are not affiliated with an AFL club, there was very little excuse for the third-term fadeout. The two most impressive playmakers for the Dees were experienced AFL
goals on the fridge and ticked them off one-by-one as she accomplished them. On that list with a bullet - “Become world number one”. Australia will take on Serbia in their World Group II playoff at the Kristalna Dvorana Sports Hall in Zrenjanin, Serbia on 22 and 23 April. The tie will be broadcast live on the Seven Network.

Michael Hibberd gathered 25 touches for the Demons on Easter Monday. 167324 pair Michael Hibberd (25 disposals), who crossed over from Essendon after 84 games, and former co-captain Jack Trengove (33 disposals, six tackles and a goal), who battled hard as an insidemidfielder. Cam Pedersen (29 disposals, 11 marks), Angus Scott (22 disposals, four goals) and Corey Maynard (25 disposals) were all impressive con-
tributors for the Dees, but as a whole lacked composure and were unable to convert their opportunities. Demons coach Justin Plapp praised Hibberd and Trengove for their impact on the contest and their ability to fight through tough pre-seasons with injury, and hinted both are chances to be lining up in the senior team next week. “He (Hibberd) looked good out
Picture: AFL Victoria
there. He got through the game well and was up around full game time,” he said. “Jack (Trengove) was pretty solid across four quarters, used the ball pretty well and pressured the opposition. “He has certainly put a pretty good case forward.” The game was one or lost in the ruck, with the Gulls dominating the hit-outs 75-27 to take a vital 51-41 ad-
vantage in the clearances - with Jake Spencer in for AFL duties due to the injury of Max Gawn, Nick Meese feasted on an inexperienced and makeshift ruck combination. The Dees will look to claim their first victory of the season on Saturday night when they take on North Ballarat at Casey Fields from 7pm. The Roosters themselves are coming off an embarrassing 188 point hiding to Richmond on Easter Sunday, and will be looking to improve. In the Development League, the Demons defeated the Gulls by 11 points, with Todd Vander Haar impressive in a best-on-ground performance, while Aaron Cotte and Liam Hiscock were also among the best.

135-point thrashing By David Nagel Doveton full-forward Taylor Joyce has upstaged former Melbourne stars Russell Robertson and Daniel Ward with an 11-goal haul in the Doves mightily impressive 135-point victory over Hampton Park on Good Friday. Joyce ran rampant in the first half, kicking four in the first quarter and three in three minutes at the start of the second, heading to half time with nine on the board. Only the great work of Hampton Park youngster, CJ Layfield, kept things in check in the second half. A big crowd turned out at Robert Booth Reserve to see if Robertson and Ward could bring some competitiveness to a side that has won just four of its last 84 outings. The answer -well it was an emphatic no! The Redbacks were too loose at the stoppages in the first half -ball huntingallowing the likes of Michael Henry, Sam Raru, Nick Battle and Lachie Batten to take full advantage of Russell Gabriel’s dominant form in the ruck. Gabriel monstered hard-working but ill-equipped types like Heath Peach, Aaron Holden and Tom Marshall to provide his midfield with a feast of Easter goodies. The Doves led by six goals at quarter time, 82 points at the half, before entering the last term with an 89-point lead. Joyce and Gabriel were outstanding for the Doves while Henry added four goals to five against Officer from round one. Layfield, Josh Craig and Jackson Philpin were best for the Redbacks.
This week’s match of the day sees Beaconsfield travel to Fox Road to take on Narre Warren. The Eagles defeated the Magpies by 13 points in last year’s first semifinal. The Magpies seem to have better balance this season, with brothers Jack and Matt Soroczynski and Jack Wheeler have tremendous pace off half back, feeding off bullocking types like Michael Collins, Dylan Quirk and Hayden Stagg. Nick and Stewie Scanlon have added depth to the front half, while Jayden Bubb is providing a giant figure in the ruck. He faces the ultimate challenge this week against three-time Norm Walker Medallist Scott Meyer. The Magpies should get the points on their home deck. In other games, Officer will look for its first victory at Toomuc Reserve this millennium when it makes the short trip to take on Pakenham. And, on face value, the Kangaroos would appear to have the better form line. They have matched motors with both Doveton and Narre Warren over the first two rounds of the season before a 15-minute lapse in concentration cost them dearly. Cory Phillips and Mat Jones have dimmed the focus on regular midfielders like Chris Larosa, Blair Allan and Ben Tivendale, while Andrew Dike and Luke Nunan have given James Waldon a huge chop-out down back. But just what confronts them this weekend. The Lions have signed Jayden

Wobbly start for Stingrays
The Stingrays sit 2-1 after an inconsistent start to the Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS season. 166487 players who played in the Vic Country trial game, so most of our squad will continue to play over the break, so the workload won’t really drop off as such.” The Rays are likely to be heavily affected in their pursuit of a TAC Cup premiership with the likelihood that up to 10 youngsters will be in the Vic Country squad at the National Championships within the next few months - a positive as a whole but a potential to derail their season. “It’s going to be a tough scenario, that’s why getting wins early this season are so important - Oscar Clavarino, Hunter Clark, Luke Davies, Tom De Koning, Bailey Williams, Mitch
Riordan and Sam Fletcher are expected to play Vic Country, and potentially Bailey Morrish could also play in the Vic Country side,” Cox said. But that just means that there are more opportunities for their lesser experienced kids, with some impressive names already showing they have what it takes to step up to the level. “Mitch Cotter in the midfield has been fantastic - he’s probably been our most consistent player in the first three matches - Ali Zijai is a good player, and Mason DeWit is a really superb kid, those types will obviously need to step up in the absence of the leaders,” Cox said.

Effort and intensity is likely to be the theme at training for the Dandenong Stingrays this week after a wobbly and at times inconsistent start to the season. With the TAC Cup enjoying a week off due to the Easter break, the Rays sit in sixth spot with a 2-1 record, and despite being a promising attacking side, they sit in the bottom-four for points conceded (280). Starting the season with a solid first-up win against Gippsland Power, the Rays were dismantled by a slicker, bigger and more professional Geelong Falcons side by more than 12 goals before scraping over the line an inconsistent win over the Greater Western Victoria Rebels by 20 points. Assistant Coach Nick Cox said there are things that need to be worked on over the break to ensure the team remains competitive and gets the best out of themselves, but also remains wary of over-working the players. “If we get beat in a contest by a bigger and better opponent, then so be it, but it’s just effort that we want - there’s a couple of things we need to do before we play Sandringham,” he said. “We want the kids to play well for as long as they can right now that inconsistency is there, but at the same time it is a development program. “A lot of our players have had a pretty heavy workload so far and we have to be wary of that - we’ve got about 13

Renault’s tweak and sparkle By Vani Naidoo, Marque Motoring Renault has spruced up the design of this fourth-generation Megane, dropped the price and tweaked the drive in the hope it will resonate more strongly with Australian buyers. To help combat the perception that French cars cost a mint to maintain Renault Australia is offering the Megane with a five year unlimited kilometres warranty and full roadside assist and capped price servicing for three years. Standard inclusions feature keyless entry and push button start, 7.0-inch touchscreen, Alcantara leather trim upholstery, dual-zone climate control, auto headlights and wipers as well as sat nav, park assist and privacy glass. The Premium Pack ($1990) adds the 8.7-inch portrait screen, full LED headlights and a Bose sound system. The GT sits low and wide on its 18-inch alloys, with curvy hips, sporty nose and sculpted flanks hinting at the fun that can be had. A sharp LED headlight design, chrome and silver highlights and dual exhaust tips complete a distinctive, edgy look that sets it apart from competitors. The Megane GT boasts an airy, well-appointed cabin with the black and blue sport-style bucket seats offering the comfort and support you need for a spot of energetic driving. The blue is echoed in the contrast
stitching on the steering wheel, in the ambient lighting, as a backdrop to the instrumentation and in the tint of the carbon fibre trim too, which not only lifts the ambience of the cabin but also gives it an air of the different. However, the soft touch plastics and top-notch finishing sit alongside cheaper, easily marked materials and tardy shortcuts in adapting the European car to a right-hand drive market. The optional 8.7-inch portrait touchscreen in our test car dominated the dash, looking completely at home in the sleekly integrated design. It is responsive and offers good graphics quality but is not as intuitive as units that mirror the smartphone software we have become so accustomed to. Megane GT is equipped with six airbags, traction and stability control and reverse camera with front and rear sensors. Surprisingly, there is not autonomous emergency braking or adaptive cruise control in Australian models yet. Decent mid-range torque helps it along and it certainly doesn’t feel hesitant when you ask the question. Unfortunately, the steering wheel paddles are oddly shaped and are not really comfortably placed with the gearbox’s penchant to shift up automatically if you try to hold on to a lower gear also detracting from the experience.
MODEL RANGE 2017 Renault Megane GT from $38,490 (plus on-road costs).
Renault has spruced up the design of this fourth-generation Megane GT. The new suspension set-up gives its more control and agility, while the nifty 4Control four-wheel steering improves flexibility and handling, allowing it to duck into corners easily and giving it stability while travelling at high speeds. Below 60km/h the rear wheels turn in the opposite direction to the front, making the car feel better balanced and supporting quick changes of direction, and pretty handy for parking, too. The GT is sure footed and fairly comfortable over bumps and ruts, niggling a bit but not enough to irritate,

but cabin noise can be a bit loud on coarse bitumen. At 434 litres the boot is pretty handy, deep enough to hold the weekly shop along with a schoolbag or two. Lodgings for rear seat passengers are comfortable enough provided you limit it to two and adults will find their knees touching the seats in front. There are air vents back there and handy map pockets, two Isofix points, the middle armrest and door bins deep enough to be useful. Not so useful are the front cup hold-
ers. They are oddly sized and not deep enough to hold that much-needed takeaway coffee without a degree of precariousness. Renault claims a combined fuel economy of six litres per 100 kilometres and although ours was closer to 7.2 litres/100km during our week, that did include more short spirited drives than long trips. With classy good looks and a responsive involving drive, the Renault Megane GT is one to consider. Competitive pricing, an excellent warranty and an expanding dealership network also add to the allure. This is a fun car, not without its idiosyncrasies, mind you, but we love the French for that.
