New era for Rotary

By Rowan Forster A new president has taken the reigns at Pakenham Rotary Club, promising to build on the non-for-profit’s commitment to inspire the next generation.

After a year of tireless charity work, outgoing head Greg Peck gave his blessing to the club’s newest boss, Goran Galic.

The event was celebrated by more than 60 Rotarians and official guests during a Changeover Dinner at the Pakenham

Golf Club on Tuesday night.

Several Paul Harris Fellowship Awards were also presented on the night, recognising outstanding work in the local community.

Check out next week’s Gazette for in-depth coverage on the event.

blocks of land or our money and it’s devastated our entire lives.”

Eleven people affected by the company’s liquidation have contacted Ms Toth sharing similar experiences.

One purchaser contacted by Star News said he was in such a poor frame of mind that he could not bring himself to discuss it without destroying his day.

While customers have been severely affected by the company’s alleged failure, tradesmen, conveyancers and real estate agents have also reportedly been short-changed.

In an email exchange obtained by Star News, the company advised purchasers that works would commence in November, 2017.

That date was later stalled until the fourth quarter of 2018.

Clairmont Banks, a real estate agency in Templestowe, first pursued the company’s administration in April over a mounting debt.

While Star News has been unsuccessful in trying to contact the company’s directors, a solicitor acting on behalf of the company has advised PCI Partners that they intend to dispute the “erroneously obtained” winding up order in the Supreme Court.

They claim it is inappropriate for the directors to service the liquidator’s request for the missing $262,075 to be provided while the application is proceeding.

“Until such time that I am served with such an application to terminate the winding up, I will proceed with conducting investigations into the affairs of the company,” Mr Michell said.

Land developer Winning Post Estate has collapsed into liquidation, leaving those who splurged life-savings for land at Bayview Road, Officer, out of pocket.

The Victorian Supreme Court issued a wind up order against directors Hai Quang Dinh and Khuyen Tri Nguyen in May, devastating dozens of aspiring home owners who have invested tens of thousands of dollars into the failed venture.

Liquidator Stephen Michell, of PCI Partners, was advised that 30 blocks of land had been sold for between $300,000 and $400,000 each, with a minimum 10 per cent deposit indicating the company is stockpiling at least $900,000.

He said the company’s bank account records revealed $262,075 was withdrawn on the day Mr Dinh and Mr Nguyen met with him, leaving just $82,390 remaining.

The remaining funds are allegedly being held by the company’s solicitor.

“I issued a demand to the directors for the repayment of those funds, however the directors failed to comply,” Mr Michell said.

For Diana Toth, who paid more than $36,000 in a deposit for land, it is a debilitating blow.

“The entire episode makes me feel anxious and sick,” she said.

“We’re at a total loss and it doesn’t help that the directors aren’t being forthcoming with the truth.

Waste charges trickle up

By Cam Lucadou-Wells Casey Council has slightly dampened a proposed waste charge rise in its $441 million final budget for 2018-19.

In good news for ratepayers, the council modestly trimmed its charge down from $330 in the draft budget to $326 after negotiations with its recycling contractor.

The charge rise instead amounts to $24 one of the lowest rises in Victoria in response to the recycling industry's export crisis.

As expected, rates will rise in line with the 2.25 per cent rates cap.

Late budget revisions included $170,000 for a portable building at Merinda Park Learning

and Community Centre.

Funding was reallocated from a project at Essex Park Community Place to Barry Simon Pavilion, to take advantage of a state grant.

However, the Alliance for Gambling Reform failed to attract a $25,000 contribution to its anti-pokies campaign, despite an in-person submission by director Reverend Tim Costello.

The alliance is backed by several Melbourne councils, including Knox, Greater Dandenong and Monash.

Meanwhile, Casey Basketball Association still hopes to avert a proposed steep hike in fees for V-League games at Casey Stadium.

Under the proposal, the CBA claimed that

the court hire charges for next Big V season would jump from $11,340 to $49,850 - a 339 per cent rise.

CBA general manager Tammy Bower said the association was meeting with Casey and the venue's manager YMCA to strike a compromise.

"At the end of the day, we don't think the (proposed hire fee) will go ahead. If it did, we'd have to look at cutting back things, or price increases."

The final budget retains its $122 million capital works program including two family and community centres in Clyde North, a districtlevel soccer pavilion at Jack Thomas Reserve and building a 'missing link' of Glasscocks Road.

The council allocated $4.4 million towards its continued digitisation.

In adopting the budget on 26 June, Casey mayor Geoff Ablett reiterated the growth council's concerns about an emerging funding gap.

"This is the first budget in which the cumulative pinch of rate capping is clear and is impacting decision making.

"This budget represents Council reaching a tipping point where the future will be characterised by the increasingly difficult job of bridging the gap between the infrastructure and services the community expect and what Council can afford to deliver."

A little laughter goes far

Council’s big-dollar wish list

It was the perfect remedy for a group of retirees who not only got a good laugh but welcomed some new facilities to their home.

Award winning aged care provider Lifeview Residential Care (Lifeview) officially opened its new 56-bed premium aged care extension to its Willow Wood home with the assistance of comedian and The Project panellist Tommy Little.

The extension to the existing Cranbourne home offers premium hotel-style amenities, whilst maintaining the warmth of home.

The architecturally designed $12-million extension features 56 new single rooms with en suites, a resident and family caf¨¦ with children's play area and alfresco dining, an avant-garde hairdressing salon, tiered theatre/ cinema, fully appointed gym featuring the latest HUR equipment, day spa, mini-golf green, man cave, and a sensory garden with an integrated sound and lighting system.

Lifeview CEO Madeline Gall says it "We are very excited to be offering this level of amenity to the local community."

"Every element of this new extension has been thought through with the end user in mind. Common areas are designed to cater for all mobility and cognitive levels, including wide passageways, en suites feature sensor lighting, external areas are accessible to residents via automated doors, there are bed-side USB charging points, and display cabinets to the entrance of each room, just to name a few features.

Ms Gall said Lifeview Willow Wood has been an important part of the fabric for the past 12 years, adding it had been successful in terms of the quality of care, and award winning lifestyle programs it delivers.

"We believe this new extension will only build on the success of this home," she said.

Comedian Tommy Little said he loved everything about Lifeview.

"Their staff is amazing, and their residents warm my soul. They are so full of spice and keep me on my toes with their razor sharp and often quite filthy, sense of humour," he said.

"I've also never officially opened anything before, so this is an absolute treat and honour", Mr Little added.

Casey Council is calling on the State Government to help fund eight critical community infrastructure projects.

The council has applied almost $16 million in grants from the government's Growing Suburbs Fund (GSF) to get the projects underway.

It has sought $1.83 million from the GSF to develop a Cranbourne West Community Hub and Town Square with council set to contribute $1.83 million.

It is also hopes to secure $6.49 million for a Casey Fields Regional Community Soccer Precinct and $1.57 million to develop a District Soccer/Cricket Recreation Reserve at Selandra Estate.

Council is also seeking $442,000 for a South Gippsland Highway Streetscape Renewal project within the Tooradin Township and $1.65 million for a District AFL/ Cricket/ Netball Recreation Reserve Development project at Kilora Estate in Clyde North.

City of Casey Mayor Cr Geoff Ablett said council will be applying for the maximum amount possible of $10 million through the GSF. He said it was a much-needed funding source for growth areas like Casey to keep up with growing infrastructure demands.

"As our population increases on average by 13,000 people every year, we are faced with a significant challenge in trying to keep pace with the infrastructure that our communities deserve and need," said Cr Ablett.

"Since the introduction of rate capping, keeping up the infrastructure and service needs of our growing community has gotten progressively harder. We now rely heavily on funding streams such as the GSF to assist us in keeping up with demand."

Cr Ablett added that council was pleased to receive funding for seven out of our eight applications last year.

"We hope that we are again successful in this year's pool so that we can get on with delivering these important projects for our community," he said.

The GSF will fund new, expanded or upgraded and renewal infrastructure projects that must commence construction within 12

BUSINESS PROFILE … HARVEY NORMAN

Electricity the surprising winner for eco heating

Did you know that gas isn’t as price competitive against electricity as it used to be?

Kate Leslie, an energy and water analyst from not-for-proit Alternative Technology Association, reports that this is now a reality.

“If you rely on gas for heating but you also have a reverse-cycle air-conditioner, think twice before licking the switch on the gas appliance,” Ms Leslie says. “Using a reversecycle air-conditioner to heat your home could lower your bills.”

Harvey Norman Electrical has Panasonic models of reverse-cycle air-conditioners that will not only save households energy but also support better health, via Panasonic’s nanoe-G air puriication system.

Simon Day, franchisee of Harvey Norman Electrical, says people are switching on in droves to Panasonic’s advances in the airconditioning and heating market.

“As people are learning of the advantages electric heating has compared to gas, they’re coming in to ind the right model for their home,” Mr Day says.

Good questions to ask prior to purchase: 1. Which air-conditioner best suits my home’s layout? Consider factors such as insulation, windows and number of rooms requiring heating or cooling.

“One of our popular models is the Panasonic 8.0kW Aero Series Econavi, which comes with the nanoe-G system.

This is a beneit for asthma, allergy or hay fever sufferers because it eliminates micro-organisms – actually removing 99 per cent of airborne bacteria, viruses and mould. And the nanoe-G system even works when the air-con is off.

“And right now, customers get a bonus $200 EFTPOS card via redemption when a Panasonic model is purchased. Other Panasonic models are also available.”

What else makes Panasonic a good choice for households?

When Melbourne’s heat hits hard, a Panasonic reverse-cycle air-conditioner delivers clean, comfortable cooling. The Mild Dry Cooling feature, designed to maintain the level of air moisture in a room, reduces unwanted effects such as dry eyes, skin, mouth and throat.

“This is especially useful,” explains Mr Day, “when the air-conditioner is left on overnight during sleep time.”

Panasonic’s iAUTO-X technology automatically adjusts fan speed to room temperature, while Econavi sensors adjust cooling power for reduced energy usage.

For more information, go to harveynorman.com.au

2. Is the air-conditioner’s kW size the right capacity? This could save heaps of money in the long run.

3. How does it rate on energy eficiency?

4. Will Harvey Norman install your system? Yes – a licensed technician is essential for safety.

During the nostalgic journey, a full live band plays their classic hits such as Mrs Robinson, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Homeward Bound, Scarborough Fair, The Boxer and The Sound of Silence.

It is accompanied by 1960s photos and film footage.

The show stars UK performers Philip Murray Warson as Paul Simon and Charles Blythe as Art Garfunkel.

The show has previously sold out in Australia in 2016, the US as well as London's West End. It plays at Bunjil Place on 17 August.

Talented students added a splash of colour at the Lynbrook Village Shopping Centre with a recent exhibition of their art work.

The centre teamed up with Lyndhurst Secondary College in hosting a 'Grow your ideas' teen art competition with students' artwork displayed at the centre's foyer for the past six weeks. They received 59 entries, up from 29 last year with members of the public voting for their favourite.

Student prizes were awarded at a presentation hosted by Lynbrook Village Shopping Centre at Suburban Burger on Thursday 28 June where the school also held a celebratory lunch.

The aim of the exhibition was for students to develop their individual creativity, said principal Konnie Prades.

"The kids are very talented, their very excited and it's really, really wonderful to see how much effort they've put into their work and how proud they are of their art work," she said.

Art teacher Georgina Gaitanis said she was impressed with the variety of art pieces, adding many students dedicating their time outside of school hours.

"It was their own idea, they had their own inspiration but the theme they work with was 'Culture incorporating the community and the environment,'" she said.

OPINION PAKENHAM DESIGN CENTRE

It’s a scandal

12377738-LB05-18

Pioneer Park in Peel Street Berwick is the former Berwick Primary School site which concerned citizens of Berwick worked long and hard to raise money to purchase the site and also, I believe, obtained grants to secure the land as a park - subsequently named Pioneer Park.

It is scandalous that the City of Berwick sees fit to re-name THIS PARK in any one person’s name. Surely a tree planted to honour the former councillor would be sufficient.

Casey Council is asking for public submissions on the proposal for the renaming of a substantial part of Pioneers Park in Berwick, to honour former councillor Mick Morland.

Like many in Casey we believe former Cr Morland’s huge contribution to his community in Casey, both in council and in Rotary, should be permanently acknowledged in some way by the City of Casey, and on the face of it , a park named after him would be a fitting memorial, but not Pioneers Park.

We are strongly opposed to the splitting of Pioneers Park in any proportions and any renaming, at all.

We believe that the naming of the former Berwick Primary School No 40, site as “Pioneers Park” was to recognise the contribution made by our early forebears to the district and the proposal had wide scale council and community support, resulting in its use and naming.

I also recognise that council and councillors do many good things right, but in this instance, we believe that they are wrong.

It is to be hoped that in calling for public comment, that in this instance it does not become a regrettable case, of going through the motions of so called community input and then going ahead with council’s proposed intention regardless of the validity of any opposing view.

We know that we are not alone in calling, in the strongest possible terms, for council to find another way to recognise Mick Morland’s contribution, and leave all of Pioneers Park intact, including the name. and that is the way it should remain.

Window cleaning at Selandra Family and Children's Centre in Clyde North. 182449 PICTURE STEWART CHAMBERS of money raised to support their campaign is quite possibly the largest sum raised by public subscription for a public facility in the history of the township.

I have also a copy of a letter that my father wrote to the Rotary Club of Berwick on receiving the Paul Harris Sapphire award in which he says it (the award) came as a ‘total surprise”. He goes on to say “I never expected to receive such a high award for my services to the club and community. Particularly my recent endeavour to have the state school site for the pioneer park which was a joint effort with great help from George Wilson, a former member of the club, ex-Councillor Norma McCausland, Ross Bradbury and many other dedicated helpers.

They all worked extremely hard over a sevenyear period and it would not have been possible without them”.

Seven years the community fought for the park before it became a reality.

It was the Berwick community who fought, in a very tangible way, for the acquisition of the site which has been aptly named Pioneers Park. The name, as can be seen on the plaque on the rock in the park, honours the citizens who supported the acquisition of the land.

No individual’s name should be ever considered for Pioneers Park. The name of the park should not, ever, be altered.

Public spaces and monuments are named to honour people, communities or events. To rename them is to dishonour those people, communities or events.

I do hope that any thought of a name change to Pioneers Park (or any part of it) will be reconsidered, that the history of the acquisition of the site and community support for it will be remembered and Councillor Mick Morland will be honoured in some other way.

The Pioneers Park was not named on a whim, or because no-one could think of a better name. It was named to honour and remember not just the pioneers of Berwick, but the citizens of Berwick who fought for the acquisition of the land and the creation of the park.

Apart from individual members of the community, some of whom donated significant sums, community groups also donated to the fund, started by my parents and Mr Wilson, to prove to council the extent of community support, for the purchase of the primary school site, for a park in central Berwick. A significant donor was the Akoonah Park Committee which raised an amount, which I recollect and have had confirmed, in the order of $50,000.

I hold a copy of a letter from my father to the City of Casey in which he writes: “I suggested we raise $100,000, with 10 donors at $10,000 each and with $10,000 each from Helen and I, and $10,000 from George (Wilson]), George and I managed to raise $140,000 in two weeks. We banked it and gave Norma McCausland a bank statement to present to council.” And later in the letter: “We called a public meeting with a full house attending to support fund-raising where a committee was formed and some $50,000 was raised, including $1000 from the Historical Society.” No doubt many who attended that meeting are among your readers today.

The plaque at the Pioneers Park records that a total of $241,000 was raised by further contributions from the general public (I mistakenly said in my letters to the star News Group and in my submission to council that it was around a quarter of a million dollars, still, not far off).

The plaque also states: “The choice of the word Pioneers is to recognise those generous citizens who supported the acquisition of this land - they are the pioneers of this era who should be recognised by the generations who follow”.

The Pioneers Park is now established in Berwick purely as a result of a concerted campaign by the citizens of Berwick. The amount pakenhamnews.starcommunity.com.au

Drone laws stalled Casey Council has put its controversial drone laws on further hold, pending a review.

The local law requires people launching or landing drones on or from private property to obtain a council permit.

After an outcry from drone flyers late last year, the council suspended the law from 20 February until a report came back on 30 June.

That date has been pushed out further, with doubts surfacing over the law's enforceability.

Casey safer communities manager Caroline Bell said the suspension continued until the council report came back to the council for consideration.

"During this time, Council is not enforcing this clause of the local law."

Ms Bell said the council had intended to protect Casey residents' privacy and "minimise nui-

sance caused by inappropriate use of drones".

"Despite some crossover with the (Civil Aviation Safety Authority) regulations, Council was concerned as to whether CASA would have the scope, capacity and resourcing available to oversee this at a local level."

Casey's legal advice found it was likely that a court would find that the local law duplicated CASA's regulations, according to a council report in February.

"This does not invalidate the Local Law. "It simply casts doubt on the enforceability of (the local law) in its current form."

Phil Dunbabin, of Melbourne Drone Flyers group, said members had a "candid, co-operative and constructive" meeting with council officers last month.

The council would require "large and unmanageable" resources to police the issue, Mr Dunbabin said.

New primary school takes shape

By Brendan Rees Families in Cranbourne East are a step closer to having a new primary school after a site was secured to build a proposed primary school.

Minister for Education James Merlino and Member for Cranbourne Jude Perera last week announced land at 50S Eliburn Drive, Cranbourne East had been acquired to start work on the Casey Fields (Five Ways) Primary School.

The new school will open in 2020 following construction funding of $20.1 million invested in the 2018-19 State Budget.

Member for Cranbourne Jude Perera said the school would deliver "first-rate education facilities" for the community.

"We're getting on with the job of delivering an exciting new primary school to ensure families can access a great local school as the population in Cranbourne East continues to grow," he said.

"This is on top of a new primary school for Botanic Ridge, and a new secondary college with a special school for Cranbourne West."

Liberal candidate for Cranbourne Ann-Marie Hermans said it is disappointing Mr Perera and Premier Daniel Andrews had "dragged their feet" with funding the much needed school.

"Unfortunately, Labor have taken parents for granted in suburbs like Clyde, Botanic Ridge, Junction Village and Cranbourne East," she said.

"This is one of the fastest growing areas in Australia and Labor has failed to provide the local infrastructure we need; we should not have to wait for an election year to have proposed schools announced."

Ms Hermans said an additional 70 brand new schools could have been built across the state had Mr Andrews not torn up the $1.3 billion East West Link contract.

PARKLEA'S DRIVE TO HELP NEEDY THE PARKLEA Winter Food Drive is on again this year, with even more locations to donate at throughout the Cardinia Shire.

Now in its third year, the annual Food Drive provides members of the community with the opportunity to donate nonperishable food items to help fill the pantries of disadvantaged families.

This year Parklea is aiming to reach even more families with a number of local businesses volunteering as drop off locations.

During July and August, local residents can drop non-perishable food to Club Officer, Montessori Beginnings Child Care at Timbertop Estate, Cardinia Life (Aligned Leisure), Arena Cafe at Arena Shopping Centre and Timbertop Sales Suite.

"With the support of local businesses this year, we hope to be able to provide more families with much needed food during the colder months," said Jarod Mills, sales and marketing manager at Parklea Developments.

"As a developer in the South East, Parklea is committed to helping improve the wellbeing and quality of life of those living in and around our communities," said Mr Mills.

The Winter Food Drive is one of Parklea's community initiatives including a Christmas gift drive, aimed at supporting local families doing it tough. Parklea also supports a number of local community groups, events, and charities throughout the South East.

All Food Drive donations will be distributed via The 4Cs, a Pakenham-based charity that supports local families and individuals with food, shelter, counselling, training and financial relief. In one year alone, the charity distributed 500 tonnes of food.

Items most needed by The 4Cs are tinned fruit and vegetables, tuna cans, legumes, long life milk, pasta sauce, dry pasta, soup, rice and other grains.

If you run a local business and wish to offer your business as a drop-off location for next year's food drive, contact Parklea via parklea.com/drop-off-location Find out more at parklea.com/ winterfooddrive ●

VANESSA IS NUMBER ONE

By Rowan Forster

VANESSA Nicholls of Harcourts Berwick was named the Number One Property Manager in Australia at the recent Harcourts National Awards night.

Mrs Nicholls won the award for Victoria last year and went one better in 2017-18, taking out the national title.

The Harcourts Australia National Awards were held on 30 May on the Gold Coast and culminated the three-day national conference held at The Star. The awards recognised outstanding performers across 31 categories in residential and commercial sales, property management and business achievements “I am honoured to receive this recognition for my team’s outstanding service to both our landlords and tenants,” Mrs Nicholls said.

“Being number one in Australia where there are many fabulous property managers in over 400 offices around the country is not an easy thing to do.

“Accepting the award, I give special thanks to Emily Riko for her outstanding efforts daily to make our property management service stand out from others, along with the entire Harcourts Berwick team.”

Mrs Nicholls also gave thanks to the Harcourts Berwick team, who she said had supported her and provided "a positive, professional and inspiring environment to work in every day".

“They really are a well-oiled machine of professionals. The sales team also being awarded number four in Australia for gross revenue per sales consultant,” Mrs Nicholls said.

“Thank you to our amazing landlords who allow us to represent them in the management of their homes and all of our external contractors - insurers, handymen,

COUNCIL will fork up $140,000 for detailed sketches of a proposed sporting precinct in Officer's Arcadia Estate.

The hefty sum has been awarded to SPORTENG, an engineering firm based in Hawthorn.

Two multi-use ovals - which will incorporate Australian-rules football, rugby league, and cricket - will be included in the draft, alongside several bowling greens, a walking track and 230 car spaces.

While sporting groups have welcomed the move, ratepayers have expressed scepticism at the "expensive" preliminary stage.

According to planning documents, Cardinia Shire wants to lure a broad range of sports to the new Comely Banks Recreation Reserve, including Gaelic, soccer and gridiron.

Joel Lodge, a former athlete for the Berwick Miners Gridiron Club, is hopeful the new facilities could rejuvenate the sport in Melbourne's south-east.

"One of the big reasons for the club withdrawing from the league was because it was quite difficult to secure grounds for play with the prominence of AFL," he said.

"I think that was one of the big barriers from the sport's success - as well as people not having a sound knowledge of American football.

'Hopefully the more the shire invests in physical activity, the more sports there will be to play."

Cardinia Shire has liaised with AFL Victoria and Cricket Victoria for input into the design of the facility.

Some have questioned the merits of paying $140,000 for a one-off concept, rather than hiring a qualified designer to service a range of projects.

"I understand the need for more facilities,

It is hoped the new sporting facilities could rejuvenate sports like gridiron across Cardinia Shire. but it seems like they (council) could have got a lot done with $140,000," Harry Osbourne said.

"Perhaps it would be more economical to hire a designer or an artist than pay these huge lump sums to companies outside of the region and sent our money elsewhere.

"I've got a handful of things down my street where that money could've gone."

In a report by council's project manager Thomas Nicholls, a number of benefits are touted by the development.

The new facilities aim to: "provide active and passive recreation facilities to meet the needs of residents, increase opportunities for residents to participate in a range of sport, recreation and leisure activities, and provide accessible facilities to meet identified community needs."

The decision to award the $140,000 tender was evaluated against a criteria which considered value for money, compliance, relevant experience and quality. ●

GROW BUSINESS … Casey Cardinia Region

Stacey’s paving the way

By Casey Neill Stacey Mcgookin spent two years searching for an employer to give her a go.

The Cranbourne 21-year-old always wanted to do a trade and her cousin introduced her to air-conditioning and refrigeration mechanics.

“My cousin does this as well. She took me under her wing for a bit and showed me what it was like and I loved it,” she said.

“I’ve always wanted to do more hands-on things. I’ve never seen myself as someone who could sit in an office.”

It’s a male-dominated field and Stacey was the only woman in her pre-apprenticeship course.

“I was trying to get a job for a long time,” she said.

“I had a couple of interviews elsewhere but obviously I wasn’t the right fit for their company.

“It was a year and a half, two years of trying.

It was a lot of rejection emails.”

She didn’t receive much more than a “sorry you have not been successful“.

Then she found an advertisement for an apprenticeship with Hallam’s ASM Chilltech, which services, maintains and installs commercial and industrial chillers and air-conditioners.

She applied, received a phone call the next day and had an interview the day after.

General manager Gavin Cheesman said he had no reason not to hire Stacey.

“To be honest she was by far the best interview that I had, the best resume,” he said.

He received 50-plus applications in response to the ad within about two weeks.

“I think we were down to about five or six

that we interviewed,” he said.

“She was the most prepared. She had a lot of questions written down. From that point of view I was impressed.

“Stacey was the only female that we interviewed.

“I think we had two applications but one was in South Australia.

“Last year we had a female who got to the second interview but didn’t quite deliver at the end.”

Mr Cheesman said Stacey also stood out because she wanted to be in air-conditioning.

“A lot of people who come in want to do a trade, but they don’t know which one,” he said.

“It’s a four-year, low-paying commitment.

You need someone who wants to do it and wants to stick it out.

“We’re looking beyond the apprenticeship.

“We don’t want to put four years into someone and then lose them.”

Mr Cheesman said taking Stacey on did mark a big change for the business.

“It is male-dominated. We had a little bit of a chat about how we thought the guys would behave,” he said.

“We had to be mature enough as a business to do the right thing.

“We’ve been talking to the technicians as we go.

“The older ones have become very dad-like.

“If you’ve got good people working for you, they tend to do the right thing.”

Stacey said everyone had been supportive.

She hopes other girls will follow her lead and give traditionally male trades a go.

“There’s another girl in my trade school class, which is great,” she said.

“It’s good to see more girls doing it.”

How to live your best life Join guests of August's Casey Cardinia Women's Business Lunch as they welcome the founder of Endota Spa Melanie Gleeson and discover how she turned $5000 on a credit card into a business turning over $60 million.

It all started fifteen years ago when Melanie and a friend saw a gap in the market and opened their first day spa on the Mornington Peninsula.

The ethos of the brand was fueled by Melanie's personal belief in the power of positive sharing and a desire for more meaningful connections.

Endota Spa is now a place where women feel cared for on a physical, spiritual and emotional level and there are now over 100 day spas across Australia.

The values Melanie built the business on were 'balance, connect, intent and truth'. She believes in cause and effect and that there must be balance with nature and humanity within our own relationships.

Melanie believes that "we need to connect with the community, with each other and importantly with our own needs. We must act with mindfulness in what we do. Our intention is to be transparent and honest whilst respecting ourselves and the environment.'

She also believes in truthfulness. "We want women to be their best and find what their truth is," she said.

Melanie believes everyone has a spark inside them that is waiting to be ignited.

"Our role is to deliver exceptional customer service in an environment where women don't feel judged," she said.

To further add to guest's experience, Vicki Macdermid of Pitcher Partners will share her thoughts, passion and insight into her success as a leading businesswoman within the region.

So why not join this fabulous networking lunch hosted by Marianne Van Dorsler and learn about finding one's 'true self,' feeling inspired and learning that when you put your

The team at Berwick Auto Electrics and Mechanical is the proud recipient of three prestigious Victorian Automobile Chamber of Commerce (VACC) industry awards.

Business owner Paul Beck picked up awards in categories including Best Mechanical (Light Vehicle - Metro - Small Business) and Best Auto Electrical (Small Business), while his wife Anne collected an award for Best Unsung Hero.

Hosted at Crown’s Palladium on Saturday 23 June, the awards in 35 categories were contested by elite businesses across Victoria.

A record number of applications were received for this year’s awards. All applicants were assessed by a panel of judges, whose decisions were audited by an independent standards representative. Customer service, training, occupational health and safety, environmental compliance and more were assessed.

“I’m really humbled and ecstatic,” Paul said.

“Especially as it was against such esteemed opposition. And to win an industry award that’s run by the industry for the industry and to be recognised by your peers is really great.

“I’m in shock, but it’s great to be recognised for all the hard work and the blood sweat and tears that we’ve put into the business ... so I’m very, very happy and elated.

“I had a meeting with my staff (afterwards) and said, ‘look I’m only a small (part of this) and it’s a team effort,’ so It’s their award too.”

Paul was also delighted to see his wife Anne take home an award for a new category to the VACC awards; Best Unsung Hero.

“I nominated Anne for Best Unsung Hero she didn’t know I entered her,” Paul admitted.

“I had to write the CV for her - a lot of that was to do with community, which Anne is big on, and how she has brought up a family and

Paul and Anne Beck collected three awards at the VACC industry awards night. juggled a small business. We have a child with special needs and she’s 15 now, but earlier on she was very sick. But Anne stuck to her guns and kept paying the bills and kept the administration going. I was just stoked for her to get some recognition.”

Berwick Auto Electrics and Mechanical was established in 1978 and has been providing the community with a one-stop shop for all its car needs for almost four decades.

The business offers an extensive range of services including mechanical repairs, auto electrical work, high performance GPS tracking systems, roadworthy vehicle testing, VicRoads child restraint fitting, guardian alcohol interlock installation and service, LPG installation tuning and repair, RACV purchase inspections, air conditioning service and installation as well as caravan, horse float and trailer service and repairs.

Warriors in thrilling derby

By Hayley Wildes When two juggernauts meet, the only hope is that the game will live up to the hype. So when the top-placed Casey Cavaliers and secondplaced Pakenham Warriors clashed on Saturday night at Cardinia Life, the crowd was hoping for a show.

Little did they know, they'd be treated to an instant classic.

In the Youth League 2 Women's Big V clash, the Cavs jumped out to an early 11-2 lead as they forced the Warriors into 10 turnovers before they could muster their second bucket.

The going was tough for the Warriors, but they dug deep, took better care of the ball and their three-pointers began to fall. Sam Neil's impact off the bench was massive as her energy ignited her teammates into action.

When Rhiannon Gallagher converted an andone halfway through the second quarter, the Warriors had their first lead of the game, 29-27.

But the Cavs weren't going to lie down.

Laura Tuplin and Tess Young combined for 14 of Casey's 19 points in the second half of the quarter to have the Cavs leading by four points at the main break.

Pakenham's defence was unforgiving in the third quarter and held the Cavs scoreless for a five and half minute stretch, but they were unable to take full advantage on the offensive end.

Pakenham gained the ascendency in the fourth, leading 65-60 with just over two minutes remaining. The game was far from over though. A Laura Tuplin bucket with 20 seconds on the clock tied the game.

Pakenham's Sam Neil made a lay-up with 10 seconds remaining, but a perfectly drawn up out-of-bounds play by Casey led to a Kim Shankland bucket. A three-point attempt at the buzzer from Ellie Coutts was wide and the

Ellie Coutts drives past Casey's Peta Rhodes. game headed to overtime.

As if the game was going to go any other way, the scores were again tied with just 30 seconds to play in OT. Warrior Tiarni Fallon took it upon her herself to ensure there was no double-overtime.

A late jump shot claimed Pakenham a thrilling win, 78-76.

Rhiannon Gallagher (26 points, 8 rebounds, 4 steals) was the star for the Warriors, while Sam Neil (16 points, 9 rebounds, 5 blocks, 4 steals) had a terrific game off the bench. Casey was led by Laura Tuplin (23 points, 7 steals, 5 rebounds, 4 assists) and

Tess Young (21 points, 13 rebounds).

You get the feeling these two teams will meet again at the business end of the season.

In other Big V action, the Division 2 men fell to Maccabi on Sunday afternoon, 80-71.

Hayden Davey (17 points, 10 rebounds, 4 blocks) tried desperately to drag his team over the line, but it wasn't enough.

Meanwhile, the Youth League 2 Men scored two wins over the weekend. The Warriors dominated the Latrobe City Energy, claiming a massive 41-point win, 99-58. Ned Weideman (18 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists) and Thomas Greer (16 points, 14 rebounds) were sublime.

Rhiannon Gallagher scored 26 points in Pakenham's thrilling overtime win over Casey.

Pictures: STEWART CHAMBERS 182397 On Sunday, Pakenham was too good for Maccabi, running out 68-76 winners. Nathan Dodgson (25 points, 12 rebounds) and Ned Weideman (14 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists) were vital as Pakenham staved off Maccabi.

Round 15 sees the Division 2 Men face Craigieburn on Saturday night, before taking on the North East Bushrangers at home from 2pm on Sunday. On Sunday afternoon, the Youth League 2 Men and Women battle Craigieburn and Sherbrooke on the road, respectively.

FOOTBALL FEDERATION VICTORIA SOCCER WRAP - ROUND 13 STATE LEAGUE 1 - SOUTH EAST The Casey Comets' fledgling form continued on Friday night, going down 0-1 to Manningham United at Comets Stadium.

On a nippy Friday night, the Blues found a goal in the first five minutes, and were never headed in a strong defensive display.

As a result of the loss, the Comets are just two points from the bottom, with Morwell Pegasus still with a chance of leapfrogging the struggling side in the coming weeks.

STATE LEAGUE 2 - SOUTH EAST Berwick City churned out a solid Friday night win, defeating Doncaster Rovers 2-0 at Anderson Park.

City got the fast break with Andres Jerez scoring in the ninth minute, before Jerez once again

converted, this time through a penalty in the second half to give his side a comfortable win.

Down at Waratah Reserve, Doveton SC picked up a quality 5-2 win over Mooroolbark, solidifying their position on top of the table.

STATE LEAGUE 5 - SOUTH In a hard-fought clash between two great rivals, Bunyip Strikers picked up a 1-0 victory over Pakenham United.

The Strikers were strong defensively and ensured the United attacking half couldn't get enough chances at goal, in a brilliant display.

In other matches, Aspendale SC drew 2-2 with Endeavour Hills Fire, Knox United were too strong in a 6-0 win over Drouin Dragons, while Old Mentonians did enough in their 3-1 victory over Rowville Eagles. Lyndale drew 0-0 with White Star Dandenong and Somerville defeated Chelsea FC 2-1.

Daniel’s Sports Quiz Daniel O’Halloran is an aspiring local sports journalist who is heavily into his footy, cricket, and tennis. Like anyone with a keen interest in the craft, he loves hearing and reading about other people’s stories. Researched from running a keen eye over Gazette editions of years gone by, this is his quiz: Who are we?

Berwick sends a message

By Nick Creely SOUTH EAST FOOTBALL NETBALL LEAGUE REVIEW - ROUND 10 Defence has been the cornerstone for Berwick's success, it's made them the toughest team to face for the past year.

While the Wickers still sit in third after a grinding, fiercely fought 8.7 (55) to 2.5 (17) win against Cranbourne on Saturday at Edwin Flack Reserve, the very side that inflicted Narre Warren with its first loss of the season, their defence is shaping superbly once again.

In the past fortnight, the Wickers - despite the weather - have conceded just four goals against two quality opposition in the Eagles and Beaconsfield, and average just 45.6 points against per game this season, the clear standout.

In their premiership year, the Wickers averaged 44.62 points against per game in the home and away season.

After conceding the first goal of the game on Saturday after Shaun Marusic drilled it through from 50-out, Stewart Kemperman's side conceded just 11 more points for the entire match, in a defensive masterclass reminiscent of their 2017 glory.

Kemperman lauded his side for their defensive efforts, saying it was more than just the six that make up his backline.

"Our defenders work incredibly hard, but across the ground we defended really hard, and that was back to our best in that aspect," he said.

"Big Jo (West) did another great job on (Marc) Holt, so he's been outstanding, and to have the likes of (Michael) Riseley, Ash Smith and Reece Piper in your back six it certainly makes it easier to coach.

"But it was a big effort defensively across the ground, not just the back six."

In what Kemperman describes as a "tough" day to play football in another bout of wet weather football, the Wickers couldn't hit the scoreboard in a meaningful way in the first term despite having their chances, the midfield superstars in Madi Andrews, Bryce Rutherford and Travis Tuck were certainly on top of in-form trio Ryan Jones, Shaun Marusic and Ryan Davey.

"There was a strong, blustery breeze, and they were able to go coast-to-coast and Marusic kicked a goal, and from there, we probably knuckled down a bit, and were able to wrestle back that momentum," Kemperman said of the first half.

"We ended up having a couple of scoring shots, but it was in really tough conditions we went into quarter time down, but thought we competed pretty well, and adapted well enough, we had to just take it into the next quarter and capitalize.

"We adjusted a few things up forward, and when you get those things right, it helps your structure all over the ground, and we were probably fortunate when Troy Tharle went down with an ankle, and big ruckman Michael Wenn went down, and it helped us control the midfield and ruck battle to a degree."

There was an emotional filled melee at half time between the great rivals after Wickers' forward Harry Money kicked into the man of the mark on the siren, sparking all players from both sides to converge into the forward pocket for a couple of minutes after what was a niggly first half.

The Wickers held firm in a splendid final half with plenty of feeling between two great sides, with the home side kicking a further six goals while restricting the Eagles to just one more through Marc Holt, who was handled superbly by star defender Jo West.

Kemperman praised his side for their fight in a win that could really kick start their premiership defence in a meaningful way.

"The conditions were quite testing with all the rain we had, and it was an enormous effort from the guys, and one in the context of the season that gives us a real boost," he said.

Beaconsfield's Leigh McQuillen, meanwhile, is comfortable with where his side sits in the SEFNL pecking order this season despite sitting fourth on the table.

The Eagles bounced back from two consecutive losses against Cranbourne and Berwick, to register a 53-point win over Officer at Starling Road on Saturday, 13.11 (89) to 5.6 (36). pakenhamnews.starcommunity.com.au

"Yeah, we're happy (with how the season is going) - we should have probably beaten Cranbourne a couple of weeks ago, but Berwick ran all over us last week after Scott Meyer went down," he said.

The Eagles were determined to bounce back and make a statement with Meyer, the competition's premier ruckman out with a leg injury, as well as an injury to star spearhead Nathan Langley early in the game, giving the Roos a sniff.

"Against Officer, I said to the boys that if we put our heads down and treat it like any other game, you're going to get results, and that's what we did on the weekend," McQuillen said.

"Minus Scotty (Meyer), and (Nathan) Langley getting injured early in the game, we still had a good performance."

After quarter time, the Eagles slammed on 12-goals to five in the wet and slippery conditions, with young gun Riley Verbi starring with four majors himself.

Down at AJ Robinson Reserve, a frightening first half under lights by Narre Warren inflicted Doveton with a massive 143-point loss, 26.15 (171) to 4.4 (28).

It was a special occasion for the annual Indigenous senior match, and Matt Shinners'

side proved they were up for the fight from the outset after being inflicted with their first loss of the season last week against Cranbourne, with Aaron Wilson converting the first major of the game in the opening minutes.

The Doves were jumped by a side on the complete opposite end of the ladder, conceding nine first quarter goals while being unable to score a point.

The dominance of the Magpies' glittering forward line in Wilson, Trent Shinners, Nick Scanlon and Stewart Scanlon proved too much for the young Doves to contain, piling on another nine goals to take an astonishing 102-point half time lead.

The top-of-the-ladder Magpies did slow down once the fizz came out of the game, booting eight second-half goals, with the Doves showing some great signs with a couple of goals themselves.

Once again, the Magpies spread the load in the forward half, with 13-individual goalkickers, including a bag of five by Wilson, and multiple goals to Shinners (three), Tom Miller (three), Nick Scanlon (three), Mitch Cox (two), Stew Scanlon (two) and Collins (two).

Tooradin-Dalmore, meanwhile, still has a heartbeat in the 2018 season, with a gritty 19-point win over Pakenham in blustery conditions on the Westernport leaving them within striking distance of fifth spot, 10.9 (69) to 6.14 (50).
