EDUCATION WEEK 2018

Students at Cire Community School have access to purpose-built training rooms and fantastic educational opportunities.

EDUCATION WEEK 20-26 MAY 2018

For 143 years Dixons Creek Primary School opened in 1875 and has proudly served the community for the past 143 years.

Set in picturesque surrounds, the school has five classrooms, an art room, large library, child-friendly kitchen, vegetable gardens, an allweather oval, pine forest and basketball court.

Dixons Creek Primary School focuses on giving children both the academic and life skills they need to become resilient, happy and flexible young adults.

The school has a broad variety of programs; focusing on literacy and numeracy skills, which allows for a smooth transition for students from Foundation to Grade 6 and into their high school years.

Dixons Creek uses a Synthetic Phonics approach for children learning their letters and sounds in the junior grades to help them learn the skills needed for reading and writing later on.

"Dixons Creek Primary School has experienced and passionate teachers who believe in discovering and building the unique skills of each individual child," Acting Principal Hayley Bawden said.

"Our students are provided with an extensive range of opportunities through which they can broaden their skills in a vast range of areas, including regular sporting events, writing competitions, Math's Olympiad as well as local and regional presentations.

"Most recently, our students took the lead in the Firestick Project with local elders, contributing to the creation of an internationally published book which explains the ecological and cultural value of fire in our local landscape."

Dixons Creek encourage children of all ages to play together so smaller children have good role models and older children learn to care and nurture younger students.

"The play areas are extensive and well

"A truly unique school, it is a happy place to be with enthusiastic children!

Dixons Creek is already running regular, engaging transition sessions and welcome all prospective students to come and attend.

Arts education at Healesville High School is a wide-ranging and ambitious program that seeks to get the best out of students both individually and in a group setting.

Subjects on offer include two and threedimensional art production, media, photography, fashion and textiles, welding and outdoor sculpture and music.

The school's arts program has been proudly dubbed The Art Factory. Contained within the Art Factory are an array of curricular and extracurricular activities, all aimed at providing students with the opportunities needed to experience creativity in its broader sense.

"This year, senior art students were fortunate to attend the HobART camp," Healesville High School Art Teacher David Lloyd said.

"This camp involved a trip to MONA, the University of Tasmania and a range of local exhibitions. In previous years, similar trips have taken place in Sydney."

As part of their studies, students regularly

make trips to Melbourne to explore the city art scene. Art Factory staff ensure that all students get to visit art events and exhibitions so they can see the industry up close and make connections with the learning taking place at school.

"The Art Factory exhibition at the end of the school year is held in our major exhibition space and features the interactive exhibits created and designed by students," Mr Lloyd said.

"This space features interactive artwork, tunnels, sound and lighting and is designed to be somewhere fun for kids to be themselves and enjoy their creativity.

"The adjacent space is the more specific exhibition space where work from all years is displayed. The featured artwork shows how much variety and depth is in the program and most importantly, how talented and creative Healesville High School students are."

EDUCATION WEEK 20-26 MAY 2018

Celebrating students Throughout Education Week, Cire Services celebrates the strengths and achievements of students who participate in government-funded programs.

Manager of Education and Training at Cire Services Anna-Louise Allen believes that by focussing on the role of education in providing a pathway to employment, students' chances of employment are much higher.

"Whether it is Structured Workplace Learning experience for VET (Vocational Education and Training) in the VCE (Victorian Certificate of Education) and VCAL (Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning) students, a schoolbased new apprenticeship or a work placement as part of an accredited training program; the value of undertaking a placement in the workplace cannot be overstated," Ms Allen said.

Cire students Megan and Vicky are graduates from the Certificate III in Individual Support and were recently attending their final class.

The Certificate III in Individual Support is the required qualification for working in Aged Care and In Home Care.

Ms Allen explained that a trainer visits the students to observe them applying their skills and to conduct a final assessment.

"All students have been offered work once they complete their certificate," Ms Allen said.

"Two of the graduates are already working in the kitchen within an Aged Care facility, however, once they have obtained their

qualification, they will have the opportunity to move to the role of Personal Care Assistant (PCA) within the facility."

Megan and Vicky were both thrilled with their experience with Cire Services.

"Nicole is a great trainer and demonstrates what we need to do using the equipment," Megan said.

"Then it's our turn so we get to practice with her guidance."

Vicky also agreed.

"I never thought I would go back to school, but I am glad I did it. I am more confident now; even my spelling has improved," she said.

"I feel more confident and I don't want to stop learning. I want to get a job, but down the track I would like to do a Certificate IV in Aging Support."

Proud history of knowledge Yarra Hills Secondary College is a multi-campus State Secondary School serving the outer eastern suburbs of Melbourne.

The college has a Year 7 to 10 Mt Evelyn Campus, as well as a Mooroolbark Campus, which houses a Year 7 to 10 'Junior School' and a Year 11 and 12 'Senior School' on the same site.

Current enrolment is roughly 850 students and has been rising steadily in recent years, with the 2018 Year 7 intake being the largest since 2003.

College Principal Darren Trippett has overseen this growth since joining the school in 2012 and considers the college now 'transformational' school.

"One of the things I noticed most when I first arrived at Yarra Hills was the lack of knowledge in the local community of the excellent programs we had in place," he said.

"We are currently one of a select group of schools across Victoria to have been successfully selected in the Melbourne University U.M.N.O.S. program, involving internationally acclaimed Professor John Hattie.

"We have also recently been acknowledged nationally for implementing our school-wide 'restorative practices' model which helps students establish and maintain effective relationships and behaviour.

Pat Hillas - Principal At Seville we believe that all students should be encouraged to develop their individual personalities, interests and abilities so they attain positive self-esteem and self-confidence and become self-motivated and independent life-long learners.

We have extensive grounds for the children to run and play in. We have 2 basketball courts, a full oval, native gardens, our ‘Poet Tree’ that stands in pride of place displaying poems of our very talented students not to mention our super Buddy Bench.

It is our aim to continue the growth and development of Seville Primary School.

The foremost aim of Steiner education is to instill in each student a love of learning, to encourage them to ask questions in order to develop their own ideas and to cultivate a healthy respect for themselves, others and the world in which they live.

Education Administrator at Little Yarra Steiner School John Stewart explained that there are over fifty Steiner Schools in Australia and over a thousand in sixty countries around the globe.

"Steiner schools work on giving each child the tools to develop themselves so that they will succeed at whatever they choose in life," Mr Stewart said.

"Students are offered a wide array of educational experiences in addition to academic subjects, such as outdoor education camps, singing and instrumental music, drama, hard and soft handcrafts, movement and art, to name a few.

"The breadth of Steiner education ensures a well-rounded, comprehensive skills and knowledge base."

Integral to the Steiner approach is recognising that each child develops and learns in their own way and at their own pace.

"Also, each child learns for the joy of it, the excitement of unlocking the secrets of the world," Mr Stewart said.

"Steiner schools place a lot of emphasis on equipping children with a robust sense of self-worth, and each student knows that their teachers consider them a valued individual."

All children ideally keep the same teacher for their entire primary schooling, which

12386884-RC21-18

Upper Yarra schools are committed to working together to provide excellence in education.

Principal of Upper Yarra Secondary College Scott Tully explained that the cluster of schools work to ensure that there is consistency in providing the highest quality education to their local communities.

"We achieve this through maintaining close relationships, sharing common goals and creating authentic opportunities to collaborate," Mr Tully said.

"The opportunities for schools to work in partnership go beyond sharing resources, as our dedicated staff are committed to all children in the Yarra Valley."

Staff regularly visit other schools to share knowledge and create opportunities for students to engage in, activities that foster growth in the whole child.

"We take collective responsibility for our students, beginning in pre-school and investing in our students through to their exit pathways, either into the workforce or tertiary education," "We take pride in following our students over the lifetime of their education and we work together to ensure there is a smooth transition at all stages."

Mr Tully also explained that 2018 will see further collaboration between Upper Yarra Schools.

"Our teachers are creating common, shared workpieces and meeting regularly to moderate (cross-mark) student work to ensure a deeper level of consistency," Mr Tully said.

"We are continuing to build on the common goal of improving student attendance, emphasising the need for students to be in attendance at school regularly.

"Working closely together, around common goals and shared ideals and practices is essential in ensuring all students in the Upper Yarra region have access to high-quality education that promotes lifelong success."

new houses but use existing granny flats and share houses to fill the gap of long term accommodation, which Mr Taylor said would open up space in transitional housing.

"There would be about 15-20 per cent of people who would be perfect for longer term accommodation ... it would release the transitional and mean more people could move into transitional housing," Mr Taylor said.

"Genuinely there are families out there who would be perfect for this."

In the 2016 Census a map was released which identified homeless people in each suburb of the state and revealed that for the Yarra Valley and Dandenong Ranges 250 people were identified as being homeless.

"We also have no long term accommodation in the Yarra Ranges, nothing for youth, nothing for families, nothing ... once they've gone from crisis to transitional there's nowhere else for them to go, we have a real problem that people aren't moving on."

A report by Anglicare in April revealed a chronic shortage of affordable rentals across Australia, with less than 0.01 per cent of rental properties found to be affordable for a single person on Newstart.

As part of the report, Anglicare examined all the properties listed for rent on realestate.com. au on a particular day and assessed whether each property was affordable and suitable for 14 types of households on low income.

newer affordable housing, but utilising what's already there."

"I think there's a lot of potential to fine tune the legislation and a number of different avenues to free up what is existing."

According to Neal Taylor the problem also lies with the lack of long term accommodation.

Mr Taylor said there were three tiers of accommodation - crisis accommodation, transition accommodation and then long term accommodation.

"There is such a shortage of long term accommodation that the transition accommodation is log jammed, and that has an effect back on the crisis accommodation ... the system has stalled," Mr Taylor said.

12383805-LB14-18

In a bid to address homelessness in Yarra Ranges, Tim Herlihy is drawing on his own experience, and the knowledge of others to help solve the burgeoning problem.

Guided by the knowledge of Holy Fools CEO, Neal Taylor, Yarra Ranges Councillor, Tim Heenan, and Ian James, the group has agreed that there is a clear lack of low cost affordable housing across Yarra Ranges.

Mr Herlihy has also drawn upon his own experience of offering low cost affordable housing, when last year he was issued a building compliance report that meant he had to renovate the low-cost accommodation he provided in Mount Evelyn.

With the costs coming in at over $100,000 Cr Heenan said it was understandable that individuals find it so difficult to offer affordable housing.

Looking at planning, and the legislation surrounding offering low cost affordable housing, Mr Herlihy said something would have to change.

"I got talking to people like Neal Taylor, Tim Heenan, Mark from (housing organisation) Anchor and various experts in the field," Mr Herlihy said.

"The picture that's emerged for me very strongly is that there isn't a shortage of dwellings in our rich society, but there is a shortage of compassion and willingness and connection, and I think there is a whole range of ways of providing affordable accommodation not just for homeless people, but also those who are at risk of becoming homeless."

Some of those ideas include freeing up restrictions placed on having a number of unrelated individuals in the one house.

"I think there are many opportunities, such as you can have up to four unrelated people under a single lease ... with a head tenant and co-tenant, and that's in fact the situation I found myself in, rather than have the dwelling reclassified at hundreds of thousands dollars of expense."

"It's addressing existing housing and not saying we have to go and build a bunch of

Forum is for youth

By Kath Gannaway Speakers on a range of youth and family issues will come together at a forum organised by the Yarra Valley Rotary clubs on Thursday, 24 May. The Rotary Clubs of Wandin, Healesville and Upper Yarra, in partnership with several community groups are looking at ways in which they can assist in raising community awareness and looking to fund programs to assist what they say are growing and distressing problems of youth and family health in the valley.

The Youth & Family Health Forum will feature speakers representing a network of contacts across diverse aspects of youth and family health.

They include Josette O'Donnell, Senior Health Promotion Officer from Healesville Hospital & Yarra Valley Health on promoting respectful relationships, Sarah Ward of Misfit Theatre which promotes often confronting and quirky theatre to open dialogue about issues facing young people, Dave Burt, from Sport and Life Training, on transforming Australian culture through sport, Rene De Sant'Anna, Senior Drug and Alcohol Clinician from Odyssey House on the journey of addiction, and Anne Jenkins, CEO of Healesville Indigenous Community Services Association on building a healthy, strong and skilled community.

Brian Hodgson, president of Rotary Club of Wandin said the forum comes out of a desire to establish a program for the whole of the Yarra Valley.

"Rotary doesn't have a single focus for its community programs and this is an effort to try to provide some background information to all members so we can progress towards that," he said.

"There is so much talk in the media about the problems associated with youth and family health that it seemed to justify a focus on that."

Managing rural land Yarra Ranges Council is running a conference on 19 May designed to help rural property owners manage their land more effectively.

The free training day will cover topics including soils, pasture, biodiversity, stocking rates, weeds, pest animal, water and how best to manage rural properties of all sizes.

Keynote speaker, author of 'The Bush', Don Watson, will present on Australia's relationship with the land and the experience of moving to rural properties.

Net gain for platypus

By Derek Schlennstedt

Rotary guest Ashley McIntyre introduces Joana with mum Alice to a very special Healesville Pictures: Kath Gannaway.

Sanctuary koala. 179760

A lasting memory. 179760

Koala memories

By Kath Gannaway One of the last memories six-year-old Joana Dias Freitas will have of Australia is of a furry koala, munching on gum leaves at Healesville Sanctuary.

Joana and her mother, Alice, flew back to Timor Leste recently after a visit to the Sanctuary.

While the koala experience will be a lasting memory, the lasting effect of Joana's visit to Australia will be the life-saving heart surgery she had at the Royal Children Hospital in March, followed by her recovery in Koala Ward.

Joana and Alice were brought to Australia under ROMAC "Rotary Oceania Medical Aid for Children" and stayed with Wandin Rotary host family Dianne and Gavan McIntyre in the

lead up to the surgery and following the operation.

Although the surgery was non-invasive, it was critical. ROMAC Chair, Graeme Chester, explained that Joana was born with a heart defect that required a 'plug' to regulate the blood circulation through her heart.

"Joana's heart defect is not such an uncommon one, but children in Australia are operated on to fix the problem soon after birth.

"This sort of surgery is just not available in her country," Mr Chester said.

Alice noticed the improvement within hours of the surgery telling interpreters that she could feel her daughter's heart had slowed right down and was not racing as it constantly did before.

Dianne said the bright little girl had put on

weight and grown 3cm since arriving and was much more active and confident.

Just as well too - she has been very busy as a guest of Rotary and Interact clubs visiting Puffing Billy, Melbourne Zoo and local farms as well as primary schools.

When asked about the Royal Children's Hospital, Alice said simply, and with a big smile "the best".

Each operation costs around $25,000 and the goal of ROMAC in District D9810, is to raise $50,000 to fund two life-saving operations with local Rotary clubs contributing.

Alice said they were looking forward to returning home to dad Ananais and baby brother, 20-month-old Jacinto, would be very happy to have them home again after such a life-changing experience.

Wandin Park vandalism costs thousands

By Derek Schlennstedt Vandals have taken to Wandin Park, causing thousands of dollars in damages.

It is believed that between 8pm 11 May, and 7:30am ,12 May, a stolen white Toyota Land Cruiser Ute with Mickey Thomson MTZ mud tyres, entered the property and proceeded to undertake burn-outs and wheelies.

The driver of the vehicle has also mowed down a large part of the new show jump arena fences , rammed one of the judging boxes, ran over fence with water taps and electrical points attached to them and then chased and run over one of the parks resident kangaroos, killing it.

William Anker, owner at Wandin Park said he was shocked to see the "massive amount of damage" that has been done he arrived at the park Saturday morning.

"They've proceeded to come in and head straight through to the paddock ... not even stick to the driveway," he said.

"They proceeded to the show jumping area

which was all set up and have smashed that all apart ... . we had 11,000 dollars' worth of new fencing erected at end of march."

"There were small portable buildings which are judging boxes, and they've rammed that and pushed that forty metres across the arena."

"They've also managed to kill a kangaroo, ram some trailers which held dressage equipment and run over some fence posts which had water taps attached."

"It's just a nuisance and frustration."

Overall the cost of the damages comes to around 15-$20,000 dollars.

Luckily, Mr Anker said no immediate events would be impacted by the damage.

"We've got a wedding this coming weekend, which luckily can still go ahead ... luckily it's occurred right near the end of our season."

Anyone with information or who sees a white 1992 Toyota Land Cruiser Ute with Mickey Thomson MTZ mud tyres and a dog box on the tray is urged to contact Lilydale CIU on 9739 2300.

Vandals have caused thousands of dollars in damages to Wandin Park.

Mr Anker also noted that following the destruction the cars windscreen and windscreen frame was found on the driveway.

The incident at Wandin Park comes a week after Wandin Oval was also vandalised by two vehicles, though the two are incidents are unrelated.

Australia's most unusual mammal, the platypus has received protection from killer opera house nets, which ensnare large numbers of platypus each year.

The Andrews Labor Government announced that from 1 July 2019, opera house nets will be banned in all public and private waters throughout Victoria, with reforms that will benefit native animals that live in and around waterways including platypus and turtles.

Minister for Agriculture Jaala Pulford said opera house nets in Victoria will be phased out with new open top lift nets now more readily available to replace them.

"Opera house nets have been placing our platypus populations at risk and so it's time for us to embrace different fishing gear that will catch just as many yabbies without impacting our precious wildlife," Ms Pulford said.

Up until now, many fishers purchased opera house nets to target yabbies unaware they couldn't be used in public waters in Victoria.

The nets trap and prevent air breathing animals, like platypus, from escaping.

In January a platypus drowned after it became trapped in an opera house net in the Wandin-Yallock Creek and was found by a local boy near the Seville Recreation Reserve.

The change to open top lift nets can be used in both public and private waters and are proven to be effective yabby catchers.

As part of the changes, a one-for-one tradein is planned, whereby fishers can trade in their old opera house nets for free 'wildlife friendly' open top lift nets.

Trials have indicated that wildlife friendly gear such as open top lift nets and hoop nets can actually catch more yabbies than opera house nets when fished actively.

The Victorian Fisheries Authority will work with the fishing tackle sector, anglers and environmental groups on an awareness campaign around 'wildlife friendly' yabby gear leading up to 1 July next year.

It is currently illegal to use opera house nets in, on or near Victorian public waters, and DELWP is working with several authorities to extend this ban to all waterways in Victoria.

Under the Wildlife Act 1975 there are various penalties associated with taking or being in possession of protected wildlife or using prohibited equipment which is up to a maximum of $38,0562, and/or 24 months imprisonment.

Budget for now, future Last week's Federal Budget is focused on building a stronger economy, so that we can have the services and infrastructure that we need now and into the future.

It's about more jobs, lower taxes, a lower budget deficit and better services.

It's about building more opportunity here in the Outer-East and Yarra Valley.

The Government's plan for a stronger economy is delivering record levels of spending on Medicare, hospitals, schools and disability services as well as making new commitments to provide better care and support for older Australians. A strong economy enables us to provide first class medical treatment and ensures that our children receive an education that gives them the best opportunities possible.

It's also about making sure that those living with disabilities and their carers are adequate-

From my

desk Tony Smith MP P

Federal Member for Casey ly supported. That's why the Government has guaranteed the essential services that you rely on, including fully funding the National Disability Insurance Scheme.

The Turnbull Government has already legislated tax cuts for small and medium businesses that have helped the 16,000 businesses here in Casey.

This Budget also extends the popular instant asset write-off for small business for a further year.

Small Businesses can benefit from writingoff assets costing less than $20,000.

More than 1000 businesses in Casey have already done so.

Helping small business helps them to employ more locals.

At the local level the budget provides continued support for our local community.

The Stronger Communities Grant Programme has been extended for another round which means more investment for important projects in Casey.

The programme provides funding of between $2,500 and $20,000 for small capital projects that deliver social benefits.

Recent examples of successful projects in-

clude a car park for Monbulk Pony Club, an upgrade of Bungalook Creek Wildlife Shelter in Mt Evelyn, resurfaced tennis courts in Lilydale and Healesville, new electronic scoreboards and netball courts for many clubs across Casey.

The Safer Communities fund has received an additional $30 million to help fight crime and anti-social behaviour.

This programme has already seen the installation of many Closed Circuit Television Camera (CCTV) networks across Casey with more to come.

This funding means that we will be able to switch on even more CCTV security cameras to help prevent and deter crime.

This budget is one that allows us to build a more prosperous, stronger and safer community here in the Outer East and Yarra Valley.

Court action over glider

By Kath Gannaway The Federal Court in Melbourne has ordered a stop to logging in five coupes in Central Highlands ahead of a full hearing next year of a case bought by Friends of Leadbeater's Possum (FLBP) against VicForests.

The Court granted an injunction on Thursday, 10 May, banning logging in areas deemed to be habitat for the Greater Glider ahead of a legal challenge set down for February, 2019.

The coupes affected are the Backdoor, Farm Spur Gum, Vice Captain, Dry Spell and Dry Creek Road coupes in the Central Highlands Regional Forestry Agreement area.

FLBP was represented in court by Environmental Justice Australia whose spokesperson, lawyer Danya Jacobs, said would be working hard over the coming months as the case proceeds to trial.

Ms Jacobs said however that the injunction gives some certainty for threatened species in the coupe areas.

The February court case will challenge whether logging in certain areas of endangered species habitat can continue to have a special exemption from Australia's national threatened species law.

The February case will look at Regional

Forest Agreements for Central Highlands and their compliance or otherwise.

Friends of Leadbeater's Possum alleges the terms of the RFAs are not being complied with, including claims that Vicforest failed to identify and protect Leadbeater's Possums, Greater Gliders and their habitat.

VicForests General Manager, Corporate Affairs, Alex Messina said in a media release issued following Thursday's injunction decision that he remained confident that VicForests' operations were compliant.

"We will defend our record and argue this matter at the full hearing next year," Mr Mes-

sina said.

He added that the livelihoods of many of their contractors is dependent on continuing their planned harvest schedule.

"Unfortunately, as the result of this injunction, we will not be able to resume harvesting in five coupes until after the full hearing next year," he said.

Responding to the injunction decision, Friends of Leadbeater's Possum president, Steve Meacher, said "We are pleased that the threatened Greater Gliders are safe from the chainsaws while this case is being heard."

Gaming guidelines for comment

Eildon MP Cindy McLeish with Wurundjeri Elder Uncle David Wandin of the Narrap Team.

Firestick pledge worth $28.8 million A Liberal Nationals Government, if elected in November, would support Return of the Firestick, a $28.8 million project that will study and use traditional fire management practices according to State Liberal MP for Eildon, Cindy McLeish.

The project aims to restore the health of bushland and reduce fire risk for Victorian communities.

Ms Mcleish, who is the Shadow Assistant Minister for Environment, said Victoria could learn a lot from the way landscapes were managed, protected and rejuvenated in the past.

"Return of the Firestick will study the methods and benefits of traditional Indigenous fire

management practices; it will train people in these practices; and it will share this knowledge and training for the benefit of all Victorians," Ms McLeish said.

The funding would include training and employing up to 40 Indigenous Fire Practitioners and Ms McLeish said the Liberal Nationals in government would work with Traditional Owners, Councils and other land managers and stakeholders to fund the project.

Ms Mcleish said indigenous fire management, sometimes referred to as 'cultural burning', is understood to promote healthy landscapes and boost biodiversity with 'cool' low-intensity burns.

"By reducing fuel loads, this form of fire management can also reduce the threat of severe and catastrophic bushfire," she said.

The Return of the Firestick concept was developed by the Wurundjeri Tribe and the Cultural Heritage Council, in collaboration with Yarra Ranges Council, and was presented to the Liberal Nationals as a project that can have state-wide application and benefit.

"We all treasure Victoria's landscapes and the new Indigenous Fire Practitioners will help to protect and boost the health of our ecosystems, as well as keeping our communities safe," Ms McLeish said.

Murrindindi Shire Council is calling for public submissions on a proposed amendment that would formalise their guidelines governing gaming machines within the Murrindindi Shire Planning Scheme.

Murrindindi Shire Council's Land Use Planning Portfolio Councillor Margaret Rae said the proposed Amendment C62 sought to adopt formally the guidelines already in place following a review of Council's Gaming Policy.

Cr Rae said incorporating the amendment into the planning scheme would enable Council to consider applications for gaming machines in a way that is consistent with State Government requirements, but also aims to ensure consideration of social and economic implications and minimise possible harm and amenity impacts arising from installation of gaming machines.

"It will give Council the tool to guide the careful and sensitive management of gaming applications into the future", Cr Rae said.

Amendment C62 is on public exhibition at all Council offices and on Council's website (murrindindi.vic.gov.au) until 11 June 2018. Written submissions can be made to Murrindindi Shire Council at PO Box 138, Alexandra, 3714, or by email to planning@murrindindi.vic.gov.au For further information phone 5772 0333.

If, after considering public submissions, Council adopts Amendment C62, Council will then have a formal framework to guide decision-making about future proposals from businesses wanting to introduce or expand the number of electronic gaming machines they have.

There are already a number of safeguards in place which control where gaming machines can be located. Gaming is already prohibited in strip shopping centres across the Shire under the current Murrindindi Planning Scheme and a planning permit is required to install or use gaming machines in all other areas , said Cr Rae

THE LOWDOWN

LETTERS Residents abide by findings

Q&A

with Roma McIntosh … a very fit Warburton woman at 95

What is something people generally don't know about you?

People may not know I came from up in the Wimmera.

What is one of your most memorable moments?

You have lots of memories by the time you get to my age, but my wedding on May 5, 1945 was a very exciting, happy day. It was a great day because war in Europe ended on that day and everyone was excited on hearing that some of our fellows who had been taken prisoner in the Middle East, and were in German prisoner of war camps, had been released. It truly was an almighty day.

What would your final meal be?

Mmm ... lemon meringue pie.

What event, past, present or future would you like to witness?

I would have liked to have seen Princess Elizabeth's wedding. I think I may have seen it at the pictures, but to be there and feel it would have been something wonderful.

What is your favourite television show?

I love sport, but I am also very fond of David Attenborough's documentaries.

What four guests, dead or alive, would you invite to a dinner party?

Well, a lot of my friends have died, including my brother William Segrave. There were just the two of us. My friend Norma Jolly, and my partner of many years Noel Jones, and another friend Noel Gaunne.

What was the first, or the best film, you have seen?

The first would have been in the silent days, but I do remember seeing Charlie Chaplin's 'Lamplight' which I loved.

What are you working on right now?

Well, I've just started painting in oils for the first time in my life, and I love gardening and playing cards, particularly bridge which makes

you think and remember.

What would say has been a passion in your life?

Definitely sport. Weekends were always filled with tennis and golf and I still play golf ... of sorts!

In reply to John Whiteoak's letter 'Me too, frustrated, angry ('Mail', 17 April), with due respect, I would suggest that accusing residents of the Upper Yarra District of "employing primeval fear of bushfires", as some sort of misguided falsehood, denies the longstanding history of bushfires in this region of Victoria.

Your "the sensible people" of the region may decide to ignore the threat of bushfire, but the greater majority of residents tend to abide by the findings of the 2009 Royal Commission.

They take for granted that the relevant authorities who class this area as one of the worst fire prone areas of the world know what they are talking about, and sometimes even dare to express their concerns in the media.

We are indeed sorry if this makes you angry, but to use the words of the Royal Commission, "the protection of human life must always be the priority".

I found it disappointing to read a letter illustrating little or no research on the topic of his letter.

In 2014, it was a LNP Government that adopted the VEAC recommendations for the Yellingbo investigation, which included provisions for the changes at Haining Park.

Fortunately for the residents of the Upper Yarra region, both the current Labor Government and the alternative government have recognised many of the mistakes made by the VEAC's investigation.

So I am sorry, John, there is no hidden LNP agenda, only a passionate plea by people who are scared for their own safety and that of their community, together with the courage to speak out.

Your suggestion that people want to remove all the existing vegetation and the "pesky native vermin" as a solution to bushfires, clearly illustrates your total lack of knowledge of why we all choose to live in the Upper Yarra despite its inherent fire risk, being 85 per cent forest.

It is an insult to our community worthy of an apology.

Rick Houlihan, Don Valley.

House fire warning Derek Schlennstedt As the temperatures drop and the days get shorter, residents in the Yarra Ranges will begin to turn on the heaters and start their fireplaces.

Mount Evelyn CFA is reminding residents to take the necessary precautions to mitigate the chances of a house fire.

After a house fire in Mount Evelyn on 28 April, Mount Evelyn CFA Captain, Rick Ventrella, said though investigations have not identified the cause of the fire, it still acted as a timely reminder for residents to check their heating systems and clean out the fire place or flue.

"This week it will be getting colder, people will start the heater or fire, but the important question is have they done their pre-checks," Captain Ventrella said.

"People need to think about whether the Coonara or chimney have been cleaned and cleaned properly, even the ducting heating should be cleaned ... over summer we get a lot of wind and dust stirs up so we get a lot of things inside your ducting which could cause fires.

"The bars on heaters, and drying clothes to close to them can cause fires ... it's just about being a little mindful and careful."

The house fire that occurred on Marcus Street in Mount Evelyn was sadly a sign of things to come, according Mr Ventrella, who said that over winter there was usually a spike in house fires.

"We will probably go to a chimney fire at some stage this year, as we average one or two over the winter," he said.

House fires aren't the only call-outs that see an increase over winter, with car accidents also making up a large percentage of the jobs they attend.

Mr Ventrella said that while it was impor-

Drive on now for ski patrol Lake Mountain Ski Patrol (LMSP) has launched a timely drive for volunteer patrollers for the fast-approaching 2018 snow season.

The patrol is looking for people who can cross country ski, have basic first aid training, love to work outdoors and are keen to join the weekend roster for volunteers over the winter.

LMSP Captain, Tim Hatten, said ski patrolling was a unique way of volunteering with a difference.

"Lake Mountain attracts thousands of day visitors each weekend over the winter which means ski patrol is integral to the smooth operation of the resort," he said.

"Volunteer patrollers make a positive contribution by providing first aid support as well as assisting visitors to ensure that they have a safe and enjoyable experience when they visit this amazing alpine environment."

Patrollers need to be specific requirements, including being over 18 years of age and have relevant first aid qualifications.

For further information, please contact LMSP Secretary, Bronwyn Howell, on 0409 212 307, or email howell.bronwyn.b@edumail.vic. gov.au More details at lakemountainskipatrol.org.

A house fire in Mount Evelyn, on 28 April, completely enveloped the two storey house and has the CFA reminding residents to check their heaters and fire places. tant for residents to prepare their heaters and fire places for winter, so, too, was it important for residents to make sure their cars were roadworthy.

"As we come into the winter months we talk about all the precautions we take with our heaters and blankets, but it's also a timely reminder that as winter approaches and weather

conditions change, so too do the road conditions change," he said.

U3A holding court

By Kath Gannaway

By Kath Gannaway The annual Walk for HICCI has raised more than $2800 to help support the Healesville Interchurch Community Care Inc. programs.

The walk on Saturday 28 April saw around 80 people of all ages, and many accompanied by their four-legged friends, set out from Queen's Park on the one, two or three kilometre walks around the town.

While the Walk provides a handy boost to the HICCI bottom line, but Executive Officer, Alison Gommers said it is also about raising awareness of the role HICCI plays in the Healesville and Yarra Glen communities.

"The helping hand we provide is not always material aid, HICCI provides a transport service, is a hub for other services, and runs a community dinner on a Tuesday evening," she said.

Mayor Len Cox and U3A Past President Julian Higgs cut the ribbon. which also provides a place where people can drop in and socialise, and a place for meetings.

U3A is open for classes throughout the week but Wednesday afternoon is the ideal time to pop in and see what is on offer - they're

on the corner of Harker Street and HealesvilleKinglake Road, Healesville.

For more information on U3A visit www. healesvilleu3a.org.au , email Healesville.u3a@ bigpone.com or phone 0490 917 975.

The historic Healesville Court House received a new lease on life when at the start of this year, it became home to U3A Healesville.

On Thursday, 26 April, that new lease on life, which came as the result of an actual lease from Yarra Ranges Council, was officially recognised with an official opening by Yarra Ranges Council Mayor Len Cox. U3A President Bill Woods welcomed over one hundred guests at the Opening Celebration before handing over to Past President Julian Higgs who spoke about the many months of hard work it took before the dream of having premises that they could call their own became a reality.

Mr Higgs expressed heartfelt thanks to the Yarra Ranges Council for the lease of a building which he said U3A Healesville is proud to call their own.

Yarra Ranges Council sought expressions of interest for use of the once busy court building following the closure of the tourist information centre last year and U3A Healesville put together a compelling, and successful, submission.

Cr Cox said he was very pleased that U3A were successful in getting the building.

"It's an excellent building and for what they want I would have thought pretty much ideal," he said.

"It's also good to see it in use. Old buildings need to be used. If they sit around empty, they go backwards."

He said having the building in use means it will be kept in good condition.

"I think will be something that will serve the U3A people very well for many years to come."

U3A had been operating from a number venues around Healesville in the past and are now able to run most classes in the court house

HICCI Walk is a success

Burst forth, as in flower

By Kath Gannaway A combined exhibition by Elfian Walpole and Linden Hatherall, ‘Effloresce’ has opened at the Waterwheel Gallery in Warburton.

Effloresce, means to reach an optimum stage of development, to burst forth as if in flower with the exhibition reflecting on modern-day consumerism.

Featuring mystical night flower sculptures of exotic botanical ambience created from discarded plastic bottles and a forest of columns standing like tree trunks, employing recycled wood and steel it is a response to the wastefulness of consumerism and emptiness of spirit.

Waterwheel Gallery is at 3400 Warburton Hwy, Warburton. Phone 5966 9600.

Smoke Stack Rhino in action.

Big herd for rhinos

By Kath Gannaway Smoke Stack Rhino are back at Herd Bar in Healesville on Saturday, 19 May, with the fourpiece line up set to deliver a great night of what lead vocals Ash King describes as “grungy blues”.

With Ash on vocals and guitar, Jeremy Berg on drums, vocalist Dave Sirianni and bass player Shane Andison, the Herd is the perfect venue for the band’s unique blend of blues rock.

The group formed in 2013 around the idea of ‘bringing the blues to the moshpit’, combining the emotion of Chicago/Delta blues with the raw audacity of early 90s grunge to deliver

a performance that is a knock out on stage and powerful on record.

As a live audience experience the group has solidified its reputation as an audience favourite on the festival circuit including appearances at Arockalypse Music Festival, Icy Creek Music Festival, Bendigo Blues & Roots Festival and playing the official 2016 Mojo Burning Festival after-party.

The Herd gig comes as part of a solid start to 2018 with appearances at Waterfront Festival in Frankston and Bruthen Blues and Arts Festival in February, Red Energy Rock the Turf in Canberra in March, Cherry Bar in Melbourne in April, and the Meltdown Festival 2018 just gone.

Ash King says the band is looking forward to returning to Herd.

“We did a gig there last year and it was just really good fun,” he said.

“People just like to go there and get loose, have a good time, which is why we wanted to play there again. We had such a great time.”

For Ash, who has been on the music scene in the Yarra Valley for a while now, and as host of the open mic at Herd Bar every second week, it’s familiar territory.

“I suppose you could say I’ll be playing with a home-ground advantage,” he jokes.

Ducks broken for clubs

By Cameron Hutchison Round 4 was played in cold damp conditions for footy and netball, with the sun breaking through on some occasions.

There were some teams that broke their duck for the season and some upsets along the way.

The winners in senior football: Woori Yallock, Warburton-Millgrove, Mount Evelyn, Olinda Ferny Creek, Wandin, Powelltown, Yarra Junction, Yarra Glen and Seville.

A Grade netball winners: Wandin, Olinda Ferny Creek, Monbulk, Belgrave, Woori Yallock, Yarra Junction, Yea, Powelltown and Yarra Glen.

For those who also have an interest in the reserves footy, the winners were: Woori Yallock, Monbulk, Belgrave, Upwey-Tecoma, Wandin, Kinglake, Thornton Eildon, Yarra Glen and Yea. Division 1 Seniors Football Woori Yallock 14.12.96 d Emerald 7.11.53 Woori Yallock share top spot with Olinda and Wandin but sit second on percentage after defeating Emerald. Woori Yallock put their stamp on the game in the first, kicking 5.2 to 5 behinds. Emerald outscored Woori in the second, kicking 2.3 to 1.3, but the margin at half time was 21 points and was going to be tough to claw back. Emerald could only manage one behind in the third and Woori Yallock were a bit wasteful kicking 2.5, but the margin had increased, and Woori had the game in their control. It was a goal feast in the last with 11 goals being kicked but it was all Woori Yallock at the end of the day.

Woori Yallock Best: K. Thompson (1 goal), L. Boontjes, M. Lowe, B. Monkhorst (6 goals), B. McDonald (4 goals), R. Monkhorst Emerald Best: P. White, J. Castricum (1 goal), J. Webb, B. Wood, S. Kelleher, R. Goonan Warburton-Millgrove 11.15.81 d Monbulk 6.13.49 Warburton-Millgrove have broken the duck and notched up their first win for the season at the expense of Monbulk. The first quarter was a low-scoring affair with only five points separating them at quarter time. Monbulk kicked 2.4 to 1.5 in the second to even everything up at half-time. Warburton kicked into gear in the third, with 4.3 to Monbulk's 1.1 to take a lead at the final change of 20 points. Monbulk struggled all day to have much impact on the scoreboard and could only kick 2.3 in the last to Warburton's 4.3 which gave the Burra's a much needed 4-points. Having not beaten Monbulk at Monbulk in 16 years, this was well and truly a great win by Warby!

Warburton Millgrove Best: T. Marr, M. Wappett (1 goal), N. Dodd, T. McKail, L. Spaulding, S. Harvey (2 goals) Monbulk Best: J. Major, C. Tibb (1 goal), N. McPherson, J. Rak, N. Sargent, S. Williams Mt Evelyn 25.11.161 d Belgrave 8.12.60 Mount Evelyn have dished out a 101-point loss to Belgrave and now sit fifth on the ladder by percentage while Belgrave sit 10th. The first quarter was tight and there wasn't that much in it on the scoreboard. Mount Evelyn had 7 scoring shots to 3 but the lead was only 14 points. Mount Evelyn picked it up in the second and kicked 8 goals straight to 2.5 to have a commanding lead of 45 points at half-time.

The third quarter tightened up, Mount Evelyn kicked 3.6 to Belgrave's 2.5, but Mount Evelyn never looked in trouble. The game blew open in the last with an impressive 9 goal to 1 last quarter to really seal the deal. Robbie Hartfield turned back the clock and was unstoppable up forward.

Mount Evelyn Best: R. Hartfield (11 goals), D. Matarazzo (4 goals), A. Chalkley, K. Vanbeek (3 goals), L. Inaps, L. Francis Belgrave Best: P. Gough, C. Power (1 goal), T. Stubley, M. Johnson (1 goal), L. Sproules, L. Toole (1 goal) Olinda Ferny Creek 13.13.91 d Upwey-Tecoma 7.11.53 Olinda Ferny Creek sit on top by percentage only and have pushed Upwey down to fourth, but only by percentage also. Olinda got off to the better start kicking 4.3 to 2.2 to go into the second with a 13-point lead. They held Upwey goalless in the second and kicked 3.3 themselves to take a lead of 27 points into half-time. The third quarter was kick for kick. mailcommunity.com.au

Emerald tried their hardest to stick with a tough Woori Yallock outfit. 180805 Even though Olinda had 8 scoring shots to 4, the margin had only increased to 31 points. It was going to be tough for Upwey to come back in the last as Olinda did what they had to do kicking 3.2 to 2.1 to get the points.

Olinda Ferny Creek Best: L. Hill (1 goal), D. Wilson (2 goals), M. Hottes (1 goal), C. Beattie, D. Troutman, S. Atkinson Upwey-Tecoma Best: W. Duncan, B. Oates, S. Waters (1 goal), L. Beacom (2 goals), S. Dawson, P. Broecker Wandin 20.21.141 d Healesville 10.9.69 Wandin are third on the ladder by percentage only after a convincing win by 72 points over sixth placed Healesville. Wandin started off well kicking 4.6 to 2.1 to take a lead of 17 points into the second quarter, but on their small ground that can be made up very quickly. The second quarter had both sides kicking 5 goals but Wandin were wasteful in front of goal kicking 9 behinds and as we all know if they had converted some of these it really would have shut the door. The third quarter saw Wandin kick 4.5 to 3 straight and their lead was 32 points at the last break. Healesville could not get anything going in the last as Wandin stormed away with 7.3 to just 5 behinds to register a big win.

Wandin Best: P. Bruzzese, R. Ross (3 goals), S. Wettenhall (4 goals), J. Van Unen (7 goals), R. Heasley, D. Barton Healesville Best: J. Nugent (1 goal), D. Plozza, R. Clarke (1 goal), A. Hamer (3 goals), N. Mende, T. Costigan Division 2 Seniors Football Powelltown 26.17.173 d Thornton Eildon 5.5.35 Powelltown have registered their first win for the season after a 23-goal win over Thornton. Powelltown got off to a flying start kicking 6.6 to just 2 behinds to have a commanding lead of 40 points at quarter time. Thornton could only manage 1 goal in the second quarter while Powelltown added another 7 to have a lead of 80 points at half-time. The game was all over by then and unfortunately for Thornton is was going to be Powelltown by how much. Another 6 goals in the third quarter by

Tyson McKenzie helps lead Warburton to a historic victory. 180805

The Warburton versus Monbulk clash was a skilled match. 180805

Powelltown was impressive and they finished it off with 7 goals to 2 in the last.

Powelltown Best: T. Robinson (2 goals), B. Wratten (3 goals), N. Moody, R. McCrimmon (4 goals), R. Briggs (4 goals), J. Bruhn (1 goal) Thornton-Eildon Best: W. Cody, G. Savage, B.

Warburton golf results

Top junior performers Last round saw all junior and senior teams take the field for Yarra Valley Soccer Club. The juniors all played at home and the first game, which saw the Under 13s lose 4-1, but put in their best performance of the season.

The Under 11s put in a good effort as well, despite a two-goal loss.

Both juniors showing lots of improvement as they learn more and more about football.

The senior teams had one win, one draw and one loss.

The young ladies team lost 4-1 against Donvale with Azia Ligthart scoring the only goal.

The reserves came back from a one goal defecit to draw 1-1 against Knox; Finlay Kerridge finding the bottom right-hand corner from a penalty.

By Ron Hottes Wednesday 9 May: Stableford: In the last of the beautiful autumnal weather, Paul Mason made the most of it by accruing 38 points. This meant Paul went around the course in a stunning 67, easily the best gross score, in competition, for quite some time (and, by the way, he still wasn't happy as he bogeyed the last 2 holes). That would make any B or C Grader's eyes water, believe me!) Roger Mataele snared the r/up prize with 35 points. Balls went down to 34. NTPs were won by Linda Lay (3rd), Roger's 2nd shot on the 7th & to Malcholm Dickson (9th).

Saturday 12 May: PAR: Allan 'Old Man River' Hubbard took the A Grade voucher with a creditable +2 on a c/back, in wet conditions.

B Grade went to Andrew McMath on +1, and Peter Fox was the day's r/up, with another +2.

If you scored -2 or better, you can collect a ball.

NTP winners were Kenno (3rd), life member and always welcome ex-member, Ron Hanson (5th), Andy McMath (9th) (young tyro, Angus Smith (12th) & Ken-White (15th).

The attentive junior players.

The senior men's continue their winning ways, making it four wins out of five in a scrappy affair with Mitcham.

Tyler Kerridge and Aden Kerridge finding the back of the net in a 2-1 win.

The Under 13s team receive instructions for the game.

MOTORING

Staying safe this winter Winter isn't coming, it's here!

RACV is warning motorists to be prepared and take extra care when driving in winter conditions.

Driving in severe weather can be challenging and dangerous, so motorists should try to avoid the three big mistakes of winter driving.

Poorly prepared vehicles, speeding and a failure to treat the icy conditions with respect are a disastrous cocktail that can lead to accidents and damage to vehicles.

Poor preparation: Amazingly, RACV research has found that tyres were often neglected, with one in five cars on Victoria's road having at least one unroadworthy tyre.

Many car owners also forget to look at other critical items, too.

Check your tyres, windscreen wipers, the battery, lights, brakes, heater and cooling system before heading off.

Slush and mud were particularly hard on vehicles, so drivers should get their cars serviced regularly.

We can't stress enough how important tyres are to a car's safety.

In slippery conditions like you'd find in the snow, tyres need to be in tip-top condition.

Tyres must have plenty of tread depth and no damage.

They should also be inflated to the correct pressure.

But, be aware, this can vary from car to car.

The recommended minimum tyre pressures are usually listed on a sticker inside the driver's door jamb or glove box.

Driving too fast for winter conditions: Remember, it takes much longer to stop in the wet, so don't follow other cars too closely when it is raining or if the roads are wet.

Increase the gap between you and the car in front to allow for this.

It's important to follow some important road safety tips this winter.

If you're driving in the high country and encounter snow, drive to the conditions and take it easy.

Even if the snow has been cleared, the road is still likely to be slippery and black ice is always a danger.

Use the brake, accelerator and steering smoothly.

Always remember that the speed limit is just that; a limit.

It is not telling you the speed you must drive at.

180748

Drive at a speed that you are comfortable with and don't be pressured to speed up by other motorists.

Not reacting to the worsening winter weather: If it is foggy, don't put your lights on high beam, because this makes the road harder to see.

Instead, use low-beam, as this keeps the lights on the road.

Use front and rear fog lamps if the conditions are bade enough, but remember the rules about when they can be used.

In wet weather, use your air conditioner to prevent your windscreen from fogging up.

However, if visibility is so limited that you can't see the edges of the road, or other vehicles at a safe distance, it's time to pull over and wait for the conditions to ease.

At some alpine locations, snow chains are compulsory.

VicRoads have an information page on the rules regarding their use.
