Parents lose it Outspoken parents have slammed the controversial Safe Schools program for "messing with our children's identity," during a Casey Council backed forum held at Bunjil Place on Thursday 19 April. In blistering speeches in front of more than 200 people, three mothers and a spokesperson for the Family Council of Victoria spoke of their opposition to the State Governmentfunded program which aims to promote inclusiveness for "same-sex attracted, intersex and gender diverse" students. It was "grooming" children and left parents "feeling powerless" and with a "serious loss of rights," speakers claimed. The forum, which was chaired by Casey councillors Rosalie Crestani and Susan Serey, came after it was scrapped and then reinstated minutes later during a heated Casey Council meeting on 17 April. One of the original panellists, leading psychologist Dr Michael Carr-Gregg dropped out after publically labelling it a "brain-washing exercise." Minister for Education James Merlino said Casey Council seemed to focus on playing "political games." "It is a sad reality that LGBTI young people are more likely to be bullied at school than elsewhere. "Safe Schools is part of a broad range of anti-bullying measures available in our schools. It is extremely disappointing that Casey council would try and portray it in any other light," he said. Mother Cella White spoke at the forum, saying parents often told her they were "too scared" to approach their school as they didn't

Lest we forget our Anzacs The heart of Cranbourne stood still as thousands commemorated Anzac Day at the War Memorial at Greg Clydesdale Square, more than a century after Australia's soldiers landed on Gallipoli's shores. Families, veterans and other locals came together to take part in the service.

want their children "being made a target." During her speech, she said parents had told her: "When safe school staff came to visit at school assembly it was heavily implied that if the students didn't take part in Wear It Purple Day (an LGBT awareness day) they were partly responsible for homosexual deaths in Africa." Speaker Marzena Smalec said her teenage son was a "very happy boy" until she claims showed disturbing animated gay sexual activity was shown to students at Cranbourne East Secondary College. Another speaker was mother Marijke Ranci who said the program encouraged "genderbending." "This is a horrible thing to do to children, horrible. This is about fighting back against cultural Marxism and communism which is right on our doorstep." Spokesperson for the Family Council of Victoria Bill Muehlenberg said the program would increase gender dysphoria in children. "The simple solution is leave the body alone and deal with any mental psychological problems," he said. One teacher, who asked to remain anonymous, said she was disappointed the forum was "very one-sided." She said her school, which she wished not to reveal, was delivering the Safe Schools program and only ever had one complaint about children trans-gendering. "Parents find our school very open and honest. We don't have a lot of bullying, we don't have a lot of harassment," she said. Liberal Member for Narre Warren North Vikki Fitzgerald said the program was "wasting crucial class time with explicit sexualised content."

New schools a class act By Brendan Rees The Andrews Government will build three new world-class schools in the City of Casey as part of $353 million package for the state's fastest growing areas. Premier Daniel Andrews joined the Minister for Education James Merlino in making the announcement at Clyde North's Wilandra Rise Primary School on Monday 23 April. Primary schools will be built in Botanic Ridge, Casey Fields (Five Ways) and Clyde North East - which are part of a dozen new schools to open in 2020. Mr Andrews said the Budget included $20 million to build Casey Fields (Five Ways) Primary School to keep up with demand and deliver the "best public education possible." He said families can have peace of mind that they will be able to access a great local school, close to home. "This is more than just an investment in new buildings, this is an investment in our kids' future," he said. "If we're going to give very child, every chance we need to make sure we give parents the certainty and support that they are entitled to." Mr Merlino said building three new primary schools in Casey will ensure the state keeps pace with the community's booming population. "The community have fought hard for new schools here and only Labor is getting on and delivering them. This is about putting hard working families across Cranbourne and Casey first," he said. Member for Cranbourne Jude Perera said the new schools would be state-of-the-art facilities."Unfortunately the previous Liberal Government took an axe to the much needed school funding. Labor is getting on with it," he said. Mr Andrews announced the May budget

Picture: CONTRIBUTED would include $353.2 million to build nine primary schools and three high schools. He said not one new school opened in 2016 because the Liberals failed to plan for Victo-

ria's growing state. Victorian Opposition leader Matthew Guy said had the Government not scrapped the East West Link project and wasted $1.3 billion,

40 news schools and 40 new police stations could've been purchased. "If it was just schools, 77 new schools in our growth areas could've been built," he said.

Students honour Anzacs By Brendan Rees Intermediate VCAL students of Alkira Secondary College gathered at Tulliallan Primary School to commemorate Australia's war history on Monday the 23 April. Guests included Iraq veteran and current member of the Army Reserves Major Grantley Woods, and past presidents of the Royal Australian Electrical and Mechanical Engineers, Major Mike Newbond and John Boothroyd. Students said the ceremony "showed how much pride we have for Anzacs". Tulliallan Primary School teacher Matthew Sires said the ceremony was a fantastic way to foster a relationship between the schools. "It was great to have Alkira students work side by side with our students at Tulliallan to increase the understanding of the significance of Anzac Day," he said. After the ceremony, Alkira students worked with Grade Five and Grade Six students at Tul-

liallan in conducting various Anzac themebased activities including making poppies, acrostic poems, colouring in and a Last Post Coordinate drawing. The Alkira students then walked to Hillsmeade Primary School for another ceremony just after midday. Two students from Hillsmeade summed up the event as "an inspirational and a touching ceremony." Finally at 1.30pm, Alkira Secondary College held an ANZAC Commemorative Ceremony for the whole school. As the student population had increased considerably from previous years, the ceremony was live-streamed into two locations. Special guests included Brendan Kincade (Vice-President of the Vietnam Veterans Association of Victoria), Councillor Amanda Stapledon and Labor candidate for Cranbourne, Pauline Richards. Jack Simpson from the Cranbourne Lions Concert Band played the Last Post and Rouse.

… BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE The editor’s desk

GO TO STARCOMMUNITY.COM.AU FOR…

Some of their stories defy description and this is why Anzac has become a legend that verges on myth. We present the case of Walter Peeler, VC, BEM. As told in a new book, this extraordinary man won the British Empire’s highest decoration for valour - the Victoria Cross. But prior to that he had been courtmartialled and stripped of his rank after a fellow Anzac was accidentally shot during a lesson on the Lewis gun, a WWI light machine-gun. It was the same type of weapon Peeler - his rank restored - was using a few months later in an attack on Broodseinde Ridge on the Western Front. In that action, firing his machinegun from the hip, he ran across exposed ground, ultimately accounting for over 30 enemy soldiers in all - and winning his VC in the process. But he wasn’t finished there. He lied about his age - downwards and signed up again for WWII. There, he found himself a prisoner of the Japanese on the Burma Railway. Remarkably, the Japanese under their Bushido Code redognised his honour and, rather than treating him harshly, actually treated him better. There’s enough adventure in that lifetime for 10 men. But it’s hard to think of a man who more embodied the Anzac spirit - he was clearly a larrikin as well as a fighter, and a man who understood better than most the fine line between the VC and a courtmartial. Honour these men not as legends, but for the flesh and blood men they were. Lest We Forget. Jason Beck

Little man Mingkun builds a LEGO future By Brendan Rees He's built space ships, pirate ships, houses, trains and more - and now Mingkun Chen of Clyde North has been crowned Australia's newest mini LEGO builder. The LEGO-mad six-year-old wowed the judges by his very speedy creation of a LEGOmade giraffe at the LEGOLAND Discovery Centre's at Chadstone Shopping Centre on Saturday 21 April. Mingkun was one of three youngsters aged between six and 10 to take out the inaugural LEGO Masters event for Australia - a children's LEGO building competition - and declared as the 2018 Mini Model builder. The bricks were flying when forty of the nation's most passionate little LEGO fans put their brick-building and creativity skills to the test, competing in a series of LEGO challenges throughout the day. Mingkun's mother Zhenning Chen says he

spends hours building models from the colour bricks "whenever he has time." "We were really proud of him when he was accepted as finalist," she said. "He became super fan of Lego since he was two years old. "He builds both by instructions and his own creations. He has built hundreds of sets." Mingkun was presented with a LEGO-made trophy and will enjoy some bricktastic prizes including unlimited entry to the attraction for a year and a free birthday party hosting up to 20 of their friends or a free school excursion for their class. He will also have the opportunity to attend exclusive building workshops and preview events at the Melbourne attraction over the next twelve months. The competition was judged by LEGOLAND Discovery Centre's Master Model Builder, David Holder, who was impressed by the

Mingkun Chen with his Star Wars space ships that he built at home. Pictures: CONTRIBUTED creativity and enthusiasm displayed by the junior contestants. Mingkun was handpicked from hundreds of hopeful applicants who submitted video entries to contend for the competition.

Cranbourne's Anzac Pride By Brendan Rees Thousands gathered for an Anzac Day service in Cranbourne to pay tribute to Australia's servicemen and women, more than a century after the Anzac legend was born. Current and former members of Australia's defence forces, along with community groups, marched along High Street from 10.30am. Schoolchildren wearing medals marched alongside veterans and active service men and women to honour the fallen. The parade, which was led by the Cormac McCarthy Irish Pipe Band were cheered by crowds of spectators. Dandenong Cranbourne RSL sub-branch senior-vice president Bill Shepherd welcomed the crowd at a service held at Cranbourne War Memorial at Greg Clydesdale Square where Reverend Ineke Gyles of the Cranbourne Uniting Church led the crowd in prayer. Mr Shepherd said: "We have come here to commemorate one of the most significant events in our national calendar." "We have enjoyed the benefits of the peace and easy existence which was purchased at the cost of many lives. "It is now a long standing tradition that on Anzac Day we all pause to remember those that offered up their life in the defence of their nation and community which is the greatest contribution any human can make," Mr Shepherd said. Federal Member for Holt Anthony Byrne said "The spirit of Anzac is the spirit of this country." "We see their names chiselled in the walls of war memorials. They've done more than that. They have chiselled the Australian character into the soul of this nation with their service," he said. Eyes then turned to the skies when the Royal Australian Air Force conducted a flyover.

"To me Anzac Day is about ensuring that the spirit of the Anzac is to remain a legacy to be passed down from generation to generation," she said. Casey Councillors, members of the Cranbourne Dandenong RSL sub branch, community groups, schools and the public were then invited to lay wreaths at the Cenotaph as a mark of respect to the men and women who served their country. The service continued with The Last Post, a silent tribute and a rendition of the national anthems of Australia and New Zealand before a Catafalque Party from HMAS Cerebus marched off under the command of Petty Officer Bosnuns Mate Gamble.

Right to hold forum I think Councillor Crestani and the Casey Council should be congratulated on holding a forum of this kind. All children need to feel safe in their school environment. Safe Schools and Respectful Relationships is a deceptive title as this program is anything but safe or respectful of all people. Parents have a right to know what their children are being taught and the no parental consent and no opt-out are major red flags for this program. Well done City of Casey. Helen Williams, Narre Warren South

RAY’S SAY

SOCIALLY SPEAKING On 23 April the Pakenham-Berwick Gazette Facebook page shared a story about a young family's brush with death on one of Cardinia's most notorious roads has sparked outrage from the wider community. Peter Burgess was driving his kids to kindergarten with his wife on Bessie Creek Road when a garbage truck lost control and skidded into the wrong side of the road just before 10am on Friday 20 April. Here is how one reader reacted online: Sarah Krol: Can I just say that if it is the same garbage truck driver that empties my bins, SPEED would have been a factor as well. I have never seen a garbage truck slide to a stop before, but ours does this each week because the driver is going ridiculously quick.

Remembering war heroes The latest in a long line of fascinating war stories have been dug up by the intrepid investigators of the Narre Warren and District Family History Group. Group members hosted their fourth commemorative cemetery walk at Cranbourne on Sunday 22 April, following similar events at Berwick, Pakenham and Harkaway since the Anzac Centenary celebrations in 2015. Jane Rivett-Carnac said the event was a tremendous success. “The weather was perfect and we had a good time meeting local families, our loyal followers and new visitors all enjoyed the experience,” she said. “We have tried to do our bit in honouring the many local families who waited for sons and daughters to return from the Great War. “We have one more walk at the end of October at Lang Lang Cemetery and we will then have visited five Casey and Cardinia cemeteries and researched and written close to 500 stories.” A book has been produced to coincide with each walk - this one entitled They Answered The Call: a World War I Walk in Cranbourne Cemetery. Among the stories uncovered was that of the Nurse family. Harry and Ellen Nurse had three children serve in the Great War - one signing up at only 13 - and two of those also saw action in World War II as well. Their stories are: Gunner Edward Joseph Nurse Edward was a 37-year-old farmer at Lynwood in Cranbourne when he enlisted on 1 December 1915. Assigned to the reinforcements of the 14th Field Artillery Brigade, Edward trained in Egypt in the middle of 1916 before sailing to England. He seems to have spent the rest of his service in England before

Edward was 64 when he died on 9 March 1941 and was buried at Melbourne Cemetery. Captain Edwin Scott Nurse Edwin Scott Nurse was just 13 when he was the first of seven Victorian boys to be accepted into the Royal Australian Navy’s first intake of midshipmen cadets in 1912. During World War I Edwin was serving in the North Sea, he was promoted to acting sub-lieutenant on 1 September 1918. While based in Sydney Edwin married Marion Glenn, they then moved

to Queenscliff in 1931 when he was posted to Swan Island. During World War II Edwin was based in London. In 1947 Edwin had been promoted to Captain and in 1953 he received the Queen Elizabeth Coronation Medal. He retired in 1956 he had served continuously for 44 years. Edwin and Marion did not have any children, Edwin died in 1972 at Heidelberg aged seventy-two. Edwin’s elder brother served in the Army. Brigadier Henry Scott Nurse Brigadier Henry Scott Nurse had completed two years and 23 days at the Royal Military College Duntroon when he enlisted on 16

April 1916, as a 19-year-old he was commissioned as a Lieutenant. Henry served with the 20th Battery of the 8th Field Artillery Brigade on the Western Front; he was also seconded to administrative duty in England. In 1918 he was transferred to Egypt as an instructor and administrator. During the demobilisation period Henry was ‘brought to notice of the minister for his Meritorious Service during that time. Henry married Evelyn Neill at Queenscliff in 1920 and they had two sons. Henry served in London during World War II and in 1950 was Brigadier Inspector General of Munitions at Army Headquarters Melbourne. Henry was 84 when he died in 1981 at Camberwell.

Men caught on camera By Brendan Rees Two callous thieves who took off with a trailer from a Cranbourne East driveway have been caught on camera during the early hours of Thursday morning on 19 April. Footage captured from CCTV shows a car pull up near the victim's home where two men get out and blatantly walk up the driveway on Kirwan Drive at 1.30am. One of the men is seen carrying a pair of bolt cutters before cutting the lock and wheeling the trailer out. The victim, Melinda Smith is still trying to wrap her head around why someone would commit such an act. "They drove past the house slowly and then five minutes later they came back," she said. "There was also a spotter car down the road. "My nephew and my son ran out because they heard it as it was going down the driveway. "Normally I have my car parked there which blocks it as well as it's got a lock on it in but we just got back from being away." It took only three minutes for the culprits to hook up the trailer and drive off, she said. Ms Smith has taken to social media, appealing for anyone with information and to alert others on Facebook's Casey Crime Page. "We've had to put locks on all the doors. There's that much crime in the area it's not funny," she said. "Obviously they've been casing the place. The trailer hadn't been there for five days. It just leaves you uneasy."

CCTV shows a vehicle towing an allegedly stolen excavator.

Reward for stolen excavator By Brendan Rees

Police have appealed for information on the whereabouts of a seven by five trailer in Cranbourne East. Picture: CONTRIBUTED Ms Smith said her 16-year-old son and elderly mother, who she cares for at her home, were shaken up. "It's absolutely terrible," she said. The trailer, worth $3000, was a silver singleaxle with registration 1IX1IC. Police are urging anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

A tradie has been robbed of his livelihood after callous thieves allegedly took off with his excavator in Cranbourne North. The 36-year-old is offering a $1000 reward after his excavator and trailer were stolen from Abrus Circuit on Tuesday 17 April. Owner of Casey and Cardinia Landscaping Mathew Banks said he was gutted to find his trailer and excavator missing between 10am and 10.30am. "It did have a trailer lock on it as well and obviously they just cut that off," he said. Mr Banks has been left to pick up the pieces, saying he relies heavily on his excavator. "It pretty much gets used every second day," he said. "It's a big loss. I've got about another six more months to pay it off." According to Mr Banks, the Takeuchi red and grey excavator and trailer are expensive, valued together at more than $52,000 and he

is now require to hire the gear, which is costly. "It kind of hurts the pocket," he said. "I do a lot of retaining walls, it's got an auger bit on it to drill holes so can't do those jobs." He says he also not insured for the excavator which was just over four years old. "It was four months out of insurance because I moved and didn't even think about ringing the insurance broker to change my address." Mr Banks said he door knocked neighbouring properties and located CCTV which shows a car driving off with his excavator in Abrus Circuit. "It was a Holden Rodeo twin cab and it was like a grey/silver." He said the reward he was offering was for anyone with information leading to the arrest of those involved in the theft and the return of his excavator. Cranbourne Police are investigating. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

School bully mob-bashing By Cam Lucadou-Wells An alleged high-school bullying saga led to an angry mob of adults and students confronting the 14-year-old bully outside his house in Cranbourne, a court heard. The alleged bully turned victim as he, his 17-year-old brother and 19-year-old ‘auntie’ were punched, pushed, felled and kicked by members of the group on an afternoon in late April 2017. The mob included children in school uniform as well as the alleged bullying victim’s 48-year-old father and 56-year-old godfather, both of whom faced court on affray charges. Footage of the violence, screaming, yelling and abuse was filmed on a mobile phone and viewed at a Dandenong Magistrates’ Court hearing on 17 April. On video, after the initial flurry of punches, the father says: “We came here to talk, bro.

“I came here to talk because I’m not happy.” The assault continued off-screen, police claimed. The “emotionally high level” father was trying to calm things down, his lawyer told the court. He was frustrated about his son possibly being bullied and assaulted at school four times. The son was treated in a head trauma unit at hospital after one of the attacks, the lawyer said. The father, who owns a trucking business, was taking significant painkillers as he awaited hip surgery. He had a heart condition and high blood pressure. He was not a violent man, apart from a nonconviction for a “minor” recklessly causing injury charge more than 20 years ago, his lawyer said. The godfather pleaded guilty to a lesser

charge of riotous behaviour. He didn’t actively take part but kept watch on the nature strip during the assault, the court heard. The godfather’s lawyer said there was no evidence he knew violence would proceed when he gave two males a lift to the incident. Nor that he knew that his son took a set of knuckle-dusters to the encounter. He was being treated for depression after the death of another son, the court heard. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen questioned the motives of the mob attending the house. Was it to “bully him back?”, he asked. “There doesn’t seem to be much discussion here. “You’ve got a large group that confront children in their own home and then there’s violence. “It’s not very bright but very stupid ... to take children around there.”

He said bullying concerns could have been dealt by the school or police. Instead the situation got out of hand, and could have led to more dangerous consequences. The father was convicted and fined $1000 for affray. The godfather was fined $500 without conviction. A third adult’s hearing was adjourned due to being injured as a victim of a recent home invasion. Several bones were broken and several surgeries had since taken place, the third coaccused’s lawyer told the court. Mr Vandersteen noted that the third adult appeared to be the aggressor. The video showed an exchange of punches with the 14-year-old boy. His case was adjourned to Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 23 May

Expo opens career path doors to students The 2018 Casey Careers and Try a Trade Expo saw thousands of high school students from the South-East region poured through the gates of the Cranbourne Racecourse on Tuesday 24 April. The expo offered students, parents, guardians and teachers an opportunity to learn about different careers and study options available in the region. Careers and trades on display included carpentry, plumbing, tiling, bricklaying, painting, hair and beauty, engineering and more. Other career options including the Australian Defence Force, Victoria Police, and local universities were also present. In addition to gaining a hands-on experience, students had the opportunity to talk to

qualified people and career advisers about the different occupations and pathways available. Narre Warren South P-12 College Year 10 student Christos said the expo was an eyeopening experience. "I was looking at defence force and architecture," he said. Cranbourne East Secondary College student, Courtney, said she was keeping her options open but enjoyed learning about becoming a nurse in the Defence Force. Narre Warren South P-12 College careers practitioner Ruth Brehaut said the Casey Careers Expo and Try a Trade was a great event for students to gain inspiration for their future careers. "We've been attending this careers expo for a number of years now. We find it really useful for our students," she said.

"You've got all the providers here, the kids get to try the Try a Trade, all the different brick laying, hairdressing; get to look at the police force, and the defence force. "It's really great for our Year 10 students because this helps them prepare for course counselling later on in the year." CEO of South East Local Learning and Employment Network (SELLEN) Andrew Simmons said the expo was in its 10th year and continued to grow. "For the South-East, having something localised is so much more accessible for our local students," he said. The event was supported by the City of Casey, Cardinia Shire, SELLEN and the Cranbourne Racecourse.

Casey paras By Brendan Rees Three graduate paramedics are only weeks away from hitting the road in the City of Casey. They are the latest batch of 60 new graduate paramedics that have been assigned to different branches. The new paramedics will be deployed at Cranbourne, Berwick and Lyndhurst. Ambulance Victoria spokesperson Tom Noble said following a three-week induction, the paramedics will work for 12 months alongside experienced paramedics and undertake additional study before becoming Qualified Ambulance Paramedics. Ambulance Employees Association Secretary Steve McGhie said the union was supportive of the recruitment of Graduate Paramedics. "It is important to continue to recruit new paramedics to cope with the increasing population and workload," he said. "Improvements are being introduced to support the graduates more in their early years in the job. We are hopeful more paramedic resources will provided for out of the State Budget and the state election later in the year." Minister for Health Jill Hennessy said the State Government was getting more paramedics on the road. "We're so proud of the work our paramedics do each and every day, saving the lives of all Victorians," she said.

Windfall for Cranny’s backpacks of love By Brendan Rees A Cranbourne organisation, which supports thousands of children settle into foster care, has collected a $30,000 windfall. In celebration of 100 years of employee giving, Commonwealth Bank donated the Centenary Grant to Backpacks 4 Vic Kids on Tuesday 17 April. Backpack 4 Vic Kids received the Centenary Grant, with Kilsyth, Mount Eliza and Somerville branches and employees having nominated it in recognition of the much needed services it provides to the local community. The inspiring and far reaching impact of the work undertaken by Backpack 4 Vic Kids was a crucial factor in it receiving the grant. "We're thrilled to be able to support organisations like Backpack 4 Vic Kids in the important work they do for our local community,"

said Commonwealth Bank Kilsyth Branch Manager Debora-Ann Howarth. "It's especially meaningful that we are able to celebrate 100 years of employee giving, by nominating an organisation to receive a Centenary Grant in our local community." Backpacks 4 Vic Kids founder Sally Beard said she was overwhelmed to receive the grant. "We were absolutely thrilled to receive not one but three calls from Commonwealth Bank branches, nominating Backpacks 4 VIC Kids to receive Centenary Grants," she said. "Ten-thousand dollars is a huge amount of money to us, in fact it's enough for us to continue for about one month, producing and delivering around 200 filled nappy bags and backpacks." Ms Beard added: "To receive $30,000 is simply amazing, and gives us such relief I can't tell you."

"Fundraising is hard work so to receive this kind of support means that we can concentrate on doing what we do, and that's providing much needed items to children suddenly displaced, usually with nothing more than what they're wearing at the time," she said. "On behalf of Backpacks 4 Vic Kids, and the children who will receive our packs, thanks CommBank and staff of Kilsyth, Mt. Eliza and Somerville branches. Your kindness is very much appreciated." Commonwealth Bank employees are giving $10 million to community organisations, with 1,000 Centenary Grants valued at $10,000 being distributed. More than 13,000 current and retired bank employees donate a portion of their income to the program, with Commonwealth Bank contributing up to $2 million each year as well.

FOCUS ON … LYNBROOK AND LYNDHURST Steve of Performance Bicycle in Lynbrook has a simple business approach: treat customers as good friends and even offer ‘mates rates’ where possible. 179963 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS.

Riding away Performance Bicycle Store Manager Steve has a long history of award-winning customer service and is eager to bring a renewed level of community spirit to Lynbrook and surrounds. "My last shop, Riding Way, won customer service awards every year we opened and was even dubbed 'BikeRoar - Australia's Best Bike Shop' in both 2016 and 2017," Steve said. "I'm looking forward to building the same level of community here in Lynbrook on a much larger scale." Performance Bicycle's approach is simple; treat customers as good friends and even offer 'mates rates' where possible. And while the store may be new, there is over 40 years of bicycle knowledge between Steve and business partner, Craig. They've had their hands in just about every aspect of bicycles, from a strong retail background to importing and wholesaling, brand creation and development, all the way to bi-

cycle servicing and repairs. Both Craig and Steve are big bike riders, riding road, mountain bikes and Steve's favourite, BMX. While they both enjoyed racing bikes, they still find riding bikes with their families the "most enjoyable these days." "The area is growing rapidly," Steve said. "And with so many young families, we're building a program for our local primary schools to offer free bicycle servicing to students. We're really excited to bring this program to the area." Steve also mentioned how well a similar program worked for his Riding Way store. He said there should be room to expand and offer new ways for kids without bikes to get riding. Visit Performance Bicycle at 3/550 South Gippsland Highway in Lynbrook. For more information, phone 8765 9966 or visit performancebicycle.com.au.

FOCUS ON … LYNBROOK AND LYNDHURST

Growing great ideas Following the success of last year’s event, Lynbrook Village Shopping Centre will once again host “Grow Your Ideas” art competition for teens. Students from Lyndhurst Secondary College were invited to submit an A3 piece of art themed “Culture, Incorporating Peace, Community and the Environment”. The purpose of the art competition is to increase the exchange of art and culture in the community and to encourage young Lyndhurst Secondary College students in creating art and developing their individual creativity. Marketing manager at Lynbrook Village

Shopping Centre Melanie Brown said the competition is all about building strong ties locally. “Part of becoming a community-minded citizen is being conscious of the area in which we trade; these are our people and we want to support them,” Ms Brown said. Lynbrook Village provided $1,000 worth of art suppliers to assist the students and 59 amazing pieces of student art were submitted. 28 final pieces have been reproduced as large format form board and are now on display in the Centres main foyer for public exhibition until the end of May.

The 28 finalists will be invited to a presentation lunch at Suburban Burger where the prizes will be awarded to the top three plus prize for a People’s Choice Award. The overall winner will have their artwork used on the centre’s Retailer Directory for the next 12 months. “The art looks fantastic in the Centre and everyone is encouraged to visit the centre including mums, dads and grandparents to view the art and vote for their favourite,” Ms Brown said. For more information about Lynbrook Village Shopping Centre, visit www.lynbrookvillage.com.au.

STAR NEWS 25


FOCUS ON … CATHOLIC EDUCATION WEEK

Celebrate a strong faith Catholic schools across the Diocese of Sale will have the opportunity to celebrate their identity and mission with their local communities during Catholic Education Week. The 2018 Catholic Education Week theme is ‘Come and See’. This year Catholic Education Week will be celebrated from 27 April to 4 May. Catholic Education Week offers all 44 schools in the Diocese of Sale the opportunity to celebrate their Catholic identity and educative mission.

The theme for Catholic Education Week is inspired by the words of Jesus as proclaimed in John’s Gospel, ‘come and see’ (John 1:39). In his 2017 letter to young people, Pope Francis asked young people to be open to the voice of Jesus in their lives and to be prepared to undertake a journey with him to discern God’s plan for them. During Catholic Education Week all people involved in the endeavour of Catholic education are invited to consider how they are being called to “come and see.”

Director of Catholic Education in the Diocese of Sale Maria Kirkwood encouraged everyone involved in Catholic education to be open to the invitation to respond to the personal call of Jesus to ‘come and see.’ “In Catholic Education Week this year, we are all encouraged to continue our journey with Christ in the supportive environment of Catholic schools in the Diocese of Sale,” Ms Kirkwood said. “Through the invitation of Jesus and the agency of the Holy Spirit, each of us is called

to a personal relationship with God. In this, we are not alone. Teachers, students, parents and priests together are witnesses to, and agents of, the good news proclaimed by the living Jesus. “It is my hope that during Catholic Education Week this year families, parishes and schools embrace this special time and that schools across the diocese can be places of hope and accompaniment where people can come to hear the call of Jesus and be supported in responding to this call in order to make present the Kingdom of God here and now.”

A collaborative, creative environment St Agatha's Catholic Primary School in Cranbourne strives to ensure that all of their students are learning to their full potential. The school has a strong focus on student's English and Maths skills and targets their teaching at children's learning needs. "Teachers meet weekly to look at students' learning progress and adjust their teaching to best accommodate their learning needs," St Agatha's Principal Terry Cahill said. "This is all done in a setting that is based on the life and message of Christ; a message of love, respect, personal responsibility, service and the dignity of every person. The children experience this through their interactions with staff and the lessons that they engage in. "We work closely with our parents to develop confident, resilient students who will grow up to contribute in a positive and respectful way to our society." Mr Cahill explained that the school's new classrooms have just been built, with six more on the way for the commencement of the 2019 school year.

St Agatha’s Catholic Primary School school has a strong focus on students' English and Maths skills and targets their teaching at children’s learning needs. "The school is growing but we still have a lovely family feel about it. It's an exciting time to be part of this St Agatha's school community," Mr Cahill said. "If this is what you want for your own children, then come and visit us. We'll give you a tour of the school and answer any questions

V Tiling

The City of Casey propose to amend the Berwick South Development Plan (The Development Plan). The Development Plan covers the area bounded by O’Shea Road, Soldiers Road, Grices Road and Clyde Road that is made up of predominately residential land and the Eden Rise Shopping Centre. The Development Plan is a strategic planning document that guides the development of the area.

Andy 0414 477 121 by Horizon Plumbing Pty Ltd.

The proposed amendment will remove the ‘Gross Leasable Floor Area’ cap imposed on the Eden Rise Shopping centre, which currently restricts the area of floor space allowed to be used for commercial uses. The amendment will allow for the floor area of the Eden Rise Shopping Centre to be increased in size, with any expansion, still restricted to land currently designated as part of the Eden Rise Shopping Centre.

Mixed fortunes for Casey By Hayley Wildes In Big V basketball action, the Casey Cavaliers suffered some disappointing losses, but salvaged the weekend with a couple of key wins. The Division 1 Women Lady Cavs' unbeaten start to the season ended on Saturday night at Casey Stadium. Taking on the Geelong Supercats, Casey battled hard, but just came up short; 61-64, in a thrilling contest. Billie Lucas (13 points, 9 rebounds) led the way for the Lady Cavs, while Tanarly Hood (9 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists) was important on both ends of the court. The Lady Cavs didn't dwell on their disappointing game against Geelong though, bouncing back against the Latrobe City Energy just 16 hours later. Tanarly Hood (17 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals) put on a show against her former team and made them pay at every opportunity. Her activity on both ends of the court set the tone for Casey, as five players scored in double figures. Casey claimed the win, 79-71, despite the best efforts of La Trobe City's Makenzie Miller (18 points, 20 rebounds), who played all 40 minutes of game time. The Youth League 1 Men found it tough going over the weekend against strong opposition. Taking on Warrandyte on Saturday night, the Cavs fell just short of the Venom, 69-74. Jordan Gooiker (17 points, 8 rebounds) led the team, but it wasn't enough as Jarrod Molnar (30 points, 10 rebounds, 3 steals) was unstoppable and gave the Venom exactly what they needed, when they needed it. On Sunday, the Cavs struggled against the Supercats in Geelong. Gooiker (18 points) again top scored for the Cavs, but Geelong had too much in its arsenal, as Max Kos (26 points, 7 rebounds) led the Supercats home, 101-86. The Youth League 2 Women were firing on all cylinders at Mornington Basketball Stadium on Saturday night. Taking on the Mornington Breakers, the Lady Cavs had great contributions across the board. Tess Young posted a monster double-double of 18 points and 16 rebounds, whilst also dishing out 7 assists. With Young controlling the game on both ends of the court, Lauren Tuplin (25 points) and Kate Bazzucchini (11 points, 12 rebounds) were able to play their natural games as the Lady Cavs led 58-20 at half time and eventually ran out 97-46 winners. The State Championship Men didn't play over the weekend, but will be back in action on Saturday night in Ringwood, taking on the top of the table Hawks squad. Meanwhile, the Youth League 1 Men take on the Ballarat Miners on Saturday night at Casey Stadium, whilst a Division 1 Women and Youth League 2 Women double-header tips off from 1:30pm at Casey Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

FFV SOCCER WRAP ROUND 4 STATE LEAGUE 1 - SOUTH EAST A blistering second half by Richmond SC consigned Casey Comets to a 3-1 loss at Kevin Bartlett Reserve on Friday night. After the home side picked up the only goal of the first half, the Comets couldn't handle the pressure applied by the well drilled team, conceding to second half goals despite Dejan Radojicic striking his fourth goal of the season in the 77th minute. The Comets have been a bit up and down so far this season, and sit in fifth spot with a 2-2 record. In other matches, Beaumaris SC defeated South Springvale 3-2, Eltham drew Caulfield United 0-0, St Kilda SC drew Mornington SC 1-1, Manningham United Blues defeated Morwell Pegasus 2-1 and Malvern City drew Warragul United 0-0. STATE LEAGUE 2 - SOUTH EAST Berwick City is slowly warming into the 2018 season, notching up its second win of the season in a hard fought contest with Mazenod Victory on Saturday night at Jack Thomas. The City have been a little inconsistent in the early stages of the season, and certainly brought their game to the fore with an early strike to Chris L'Enclume in the sixth minute. Victory bounced back to find the back of

the net in the first half, but the match winner came in the 75th minute by Jarod Blackbourn, who gave the City a much needed victory and some momentum heading into a crunch block of football. Doveton SC, meanwhile, walked away with a 0-1 victory against Brandon Park SC after an incredible goal in the 80th minute by Shane Tagliaferro. The Doves and Parkers certainly struggled to hit the scoreboard despite plenty of opportunities, with the visitors doing just enough to climb to the top of the table after a seriously impressive opening four matches. STATE LEAGUE 5 - SOUTH Pakenham United enjoyed a terrific Friday night win at home against White Star Dandenong to get its season back on track. Damian Bosnjak was the man, finding his second goal of the season in the 25th minute to get the home side off to a brilliant start. The United men battled hard to defend grimly and held on for a terrific win. Drouin Dragons also claimed a solid win, defeating Aspendale SC 2-1 at Bellbird Park, with a double to Chris Davies in the second half getting the job done. In other matches, Old Mentonians won 3-1 against Somerville Eagles, Knox United was too strong in a 3-0 win over Casey Panthers, while Rowville went to town on Endeavour Hills in a monster 1-6 win. Lyndale United had the bye. cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

Dee's fast start fades By Hayley Wildes After coming out on fire, Casey were unable to maintain that ferocity for long enough as they were overrun by Richmond at Punt Road Oval on Sunday. After an eight-goal opening term, Casey were restricted just five goals for the rest of the game as Richmond lifted their defensive intensity. In what was a beautiful day for footy, the Demons slammed on the first five goals of the game in just over 10 minutes of play. With Casey possessing all the momentum, Cam Pedersen was dominating up forward, slotting three first quarter goals, whilst slick ball movement through the likes of Jay Kennedy-Harris and Oskar Baker allowed free flowing forward 50 entries. Unfortunately, the Demons were unable to hold onto that momentum as the Tigers came storming back into the contest, cutting Casey's lead to just 11 points at quarter time in a manic 14-goal opening quarter. Richmond took control of the game in the second quarter as the Tigers midfield got on top and their forwards reaped the rewards. Shai Bolton was electric as the Tigers booted six goals to one in the term. Trailing by 21 points at half time, James Munro, Charlie Spargo and Mitch Hannan got going as the Demons cut the deficit to just 14 points deep in the third quarter. The Demons returned to their attacking mindset in that quarter and showed plenty of resolve to fight back after being challenged.

After a mountain of work, a late goal to Liam Baker saw the Demons' valiant third quarter efforts result in just a one-point improvement on the half time margin. When Hannan goaled early in the final term to trim Richmond's lead to 15 points, the game seemed destined for a grandstand finish, but it wasn't to be. Casey will rue missed opportunities as they had their chances to cut further into the lead, but were unable to convert when it mattered most. Richmond made them pay. Three goals in a row saw Richmond take total control of the game and eventually run out 17.19 (121) to 13.8 (86) winners. Richmond's ability to win the ball at the coalface - Anthony Miles ran riot in the midfield - was too much for Casey to handle as Ivan Soldo (60 hit-outs) gave his Richmond midfielders every opportunity to get their hands on the ball first. Tom Bugg may be set for a stint on the sidelines after coming off in the second quarter with a hip injury. Munro was best afield for Casey, leading the way with 17 possessions, whilst Pedersen was a constant threat up forward, booting five majors and further staking his claim for a senior re-call. After their first loss of the season, Casey will be looking to bounce back this week against Geelong at Casey Fields on Saturday night.

The Panthers jumped out of the blocks to gain a 29 point quarter time advantage, but the Roos fought back hard, drawing the margin back to four points before the siren gave the home the much needed four points. David Hussey, Luke Dalmau and Daniel Heijden were the stars for the Panthers in the 10.18 (78) to 11.8 (74) victory. SOUTHERN FOOTBALL LEAGUE DIVISION 2 - ROUND 3 The Doveton Eagles have continued their unbeaten start to life in Division 2 with a dominant win over Skye. The Eagles jumped out a 36-point lead early, thanks to a seven goal to one first quarter. From there, Doveton continued to pile on the pain as Nick Battle (three goals), Michael Callinan (two goals) and Nick Beer took over the game. The Eagles claimed the win, 20.11 (131) to 7.7 (49). Keysborough dispatched Clayton with ease, claiming a big win, 20.11 (131) to 11.6 (72). Chris Bryan (six goals) and Matthew Carnelley (five goals) were dominant up forward, as Clayton were unable to find an answer for the dynamic duo.

Junior stars The Stingrays continue their dominance set to shine By Hayley Wildes

The most promising young talent in local football will be on full display at the AFL South East 2018 Regional Junior Championships. Boys and girls from the Frankston Districts, Mornington Peninsula, South East and Yarra Ranges Junior Football Leagues will converge on Beaconsfield, Frankston Park and Shepley Oval for the championships which run from 6 June to 11. The championships consist of under 13 to 17s for boys and under 15 and 18s for girls. The championships begin at Beaconsfield on Wednesday 6 June before Frankston Park and Shepley Oval share the spotlight on Saturday 9 June and Monday 11 June. The Queen's Birthday carnival, an important stepping stone in the Dandenong Stingrays Pathway, has grown in significance over the years and is now aligned with both the Melbourne and St Kilda Football Club's Next Generation Academies (NGA). AFLSE RGM John Anderson said the carnival had quickly developed a strong reputation for identifying the next wave of talent emerging through the junior system. "The Regional Junior Championships have become a very important stepping stone in the pathway to higher honours, such as selection on AFL and AFLW lists, "Anderson said. "The carnival atmosphere and high level of competition provide the perfect platform for our stars going forward." This year's carnival is proudly supported by SEDA College, where Year 11 and 12 students complete their senior secondary education immersed in the sport industry. The AFLSE Regional Junior Championships will also go hi-tech this year, with a digital record to provide information on fixtures, team lists, partner offers, frequently asked questions and welcome messages from relevant parties. The digital record will be loaded with team lists once the deadline for squad selection has passed on 30 May. 34 STAR NEWS

The Dandenong Stingrays sent a message to the rest of the competition with a dominant win over the Western Jets. In what was the Rays' first home game of the season at Shepley Oval, they completely outplayed the Jets from start to finish. It was the Bailey Williams show up forward all day he was too big, too strong and just too good for the Jets' defenders, who were unable to find answers for him. Williams finished with a bag of seven goals, and it could've been more as he missed a couple of gettable shots. His work in marking contests, coupled with his clean hands at ground level allows him to stay in the contest when other big forwards would struggle. Furthermore, his ability to play both ruck and forward makes him a tantalising prospect for AFL clubs - who will continue to keep a very close eye on him all season long. With Williams dominating up forward, it was William Hamill who set up many attacking forays from halfback with his run and carry and sublime kicking. His work from half-back allowed to the likes of Lachlan McDonnell, Zac Foot (three goals) - who continues to impress this season - and Riley Bowman (three goals) to go to work higher up the ground. While the game was all but over at half-time, with the Rays leading 11.7 (73) to 2.4 (16), Dandenong continued to put the foot down in the third quarter. Seven goals in the term stretched the lead out to 77 points, but the Rays weren't done just yet. They saved their best quarter of footy for the final term, slamming on eight goals and holding the Jets scoreless. The final score of 26.11 (167) to 6.5 (41) highlighted just how dangerous the Rays are and there is no doubt that their depth will give all teams in the TAC Cup a run for their money. With the win, the Rays are now the only undefeated team remaining in the competition at 4-0 and boast an incredible percentage of 271. Looking ahead to Round 5, the Rays have set up a top of the table clash with the Oakleigh Chargers on Saturday afternoon at Warrawee Park. This contest will be an absolute cracker and with the Chargers also coming off a massive win, both teams will be full of confidence and ready to put on a show.

Magpies are flying high By Nick Creely SOUTH EAST FOOTBALL NETBALL LEAGUE REVIEW - ROUND 3 (SPLIT ROUND) After some questioned the credentials of Narre Warren and its ability to keep pace at the top of the SEFNL tree, Matt Shinners' exciting group has exceeded every challenge thrown at them in their opening three rounds. Solid wins over Cranbourne and reigning premiers Berwick were mighty impressive, but Saturday's monstering of Beaconsfield was scarily good. With some pressure on for both sides being the only game played over the weekend, and with the Anzac Day ceremony taking place with crowds flocking to get a good view, it was a blockbuster clash, and an important one too. But even Shinners is somewhat surprised that his group has learnt the structures and implemented a shifting game style so swiftly. "You always hope that things will play your way, I didn't expect to be sitting where we are, but in saying that, it comes down to the playing group, they've been engaging and embracing in what we've been trying to do," he said after his side made the Eagles look second rate by 72 points at Holm Park. It was an interesting opening term to say the least, and it certainly didn't have signs that it was going to eventuate into a blowout. Beaconsfield certainly had its share of the ball early, and was able to trap the ball inside their forward 50 despite being a little sloppy with ball in hand. Riley Verbi picked up where he left off from last week, snapping the home side's opening goal of the day, before a brilliant piece of skill by Damien Johnston set up a Matt Homfray goal and an eight point lead. But things began to unravel as the Magpies stormed into the game, with their major ball winners - led by a tough, gritty opening term by Brad Scalzo in the coalface - getting the ball moving forward. A goal on the quarter time siren to Cory Machaya proved pivotal - it regained the lead for the visitors and undid a quarter of good work by Leigh McQuillen's side. Shinners urged his side to stick to the process, be patient and wait for the right opportunity to attack during his quarter time address, and they certainly did, piling on six unanswered goals in a brilliant second term that saw them race out to a 37 point half time lead. There were moments of utter class in that quarter - in the early stages of the second, a horror turnover, courtesy of some brilliant pressure, gave Scalzo the opening goal, and after Nick Scanlon slotted a major minutes later, Stew Scanlon galloped through the middle of Holm Park, bouncing the ball three times on the turf before slotting a brilliant goal from 50 out. That moment was the beginning of the end, with the Magpies flicking the ball around with ease, drawing into the corridor with some terrific foot skills, and also winning the ball inside the contest. With the sting well and truly taken out of the contest, the Eagles managed to put a few goals on the board through the third quarter to fight back hard, before a five goal final term sealed a 12 goal win. The Magpies' dominance through the midfield - despite Scott Meyer's lionhearted effort in the ruck for the Eagles - gave the visitors' forwards plenty of opportunity, with 10 individual goalkickers, including three multiple goalkickers in Nick Scanlon (four), Stew Scanlon (three) and Aaron Wilson (two). "It was pretty even in the first quarter, and we didn't start the way we were hoping to, they (Beaconsfield) were certainly up and about, and we didn't start well," Shinners said when reflecting on the game. "We addressed a couple of things at quarter time, and had a chat in the first quarter to analyze and have a bit of a closer look at what was taking place. "We shuffled things around, and we just ran really well, used the ball better - in the third quarter we should have put the game beyond doubt, and we missed probably four goals from 20 out, and then in the last quarter our ball movement was really good. "As soon as the second quarter, we started to become a bit more mindful of what we cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

The Beaconsfield players show their respect during the Anzac ceremony pre-game. 180053 wanted to." While there was strong performances from the likes of usual suspects Michael Collins, Jake Richardson, Col McNamara and skipper Dylan Quirk, it was Scalzo's game that caught the eye, with the returning Warragul star best afield in a game that certainly impressed his coach. "When he first came back from Warragul, it's sort of see ball get ball for him, and we're trying to educate him that he doesn't need to do all that work, we've got good players that can share the footy with him," he said. "He's full of guts and determination, he was under the packs all day - that's why we worked

hard to get him back, he won a league best and fairest in 2008 as a young kid, and the development from his side and his experience, is just so invaluable for us." Another is former Dandenong Stingray and Frankston VFL listed player Jesse Davies, who shut forward Nathan Langley out of the game in another commanding performance that has seen him quickly emerge as one of the standout key defenders in the competition. "During the practice matches, Jesse played centre half back because Jake Richardson wasn't available, and to be able to play him off a flank, and also in the ruck because he's got a terrific leap is a bonus," he said.

Cory Machaya gets a goal right on quarter time..and loves it. 180053 "He's only 19 and getting some good tutelage at Frankston - he kicks the ball well both feet, he's a strong individual and reads the play really well." Both sides will earn a rest as the round continues into Saturday with Berwick and Doveton to clash, but Shinners' side will tackle an inform Officer at home on 5 May, while Beaconsfield will look to get its season back on track when they travel down to Tooradin to take on the Seagulls.
