Footy colour pride By Brendan Rees

With September AFL glory on the horizon, excited students from Tooradin Primary School celebrated in their footy colours on Friday 21 September. Three hundred students participated in the annual footy day which saw AFL, NRL and soccer teams represented as well as many donning the Tooradin Football Club jumper. "There was even a camera man and a walking hot dog amongst the outfits," said P.E and Sport Coordinator Mark Trounson. Students participated in a range of activities including goal kicking and high marking, while the day concluded with a teacher's versus student's footy match which was declared a draw.

Ashes to crashes A 57-year-old driver refused to give a blood-alcohol sample after driving through a red light and crashing in Cranbourne North, a court has heard. Louise Traverton, of Cranbourne North at the time, had been drinking at a wake for her late husband before she drove against traffic signals on the South Gippsland Highway. When police arrived, they found her car with significant front-end damage parked in a service lane. A preliminary breath test indicated she

had alcohol in her system, Dandenong Magistrates’ Court was told on 24 September. As her car was towed away, Traverton started to walk from the scene. She disregarded police requests to accompany them for an evidentiary blood-alcohol test at a police station, the court heard. Traverton said she didn’t care and wanted to walk home. She had been driving back from Kilcunda, where her late husband’s ashes had been scattered that day, her defence lawyer told the court.

There were a “few drinks” with family and friends at a wake, the lawyer said. After the crash, she had suffered a panic attack when asked to accompany police, the lawyer said. Traverton was since “extremely remorseful” and “extremely thankful no-one was injured”. Traverton , who lived by herself, had recently moved to north-west Melbourne to be closer to family, her lawyer said. It was argued that Traverton should be spared conviction due to her difficulties finding work. She had no prior drink-driving convictions, her lawyer argued.

FACTORY DIRECT BLINDS FOR LESS

“She has already been knocked back for several jobs because she is not going to have a licence.” Magistrate Doug Bolster said the crash could have been a “lot worse”. If it was more serious, Traverton would have faced a “significant” jail term. Mr Bolster couldn’t “see my way clear” from imposing a conviction. Refusing a breath test was a serious offence, he said. Traverton was convicted, fined $750 and disqualified from driving for the mandatory two-year period.

Crime continues to drop Crime has fallen again in Casey following the Andrew Labor Government's record community safety investment. The crime rate in Casey dropped 14 percent in the year to 30 June 2018. The latest crime statistics show that the number of offences in Casey LGA dropped 14 per cent in the year to June 2018. Property and deception offences dropped 21.6 percent with theft down 21.2 percent. Crimes against the person dropped 6.3 percent with assaults down 6.3 percent sexual offences down 1.7 percent. The offence rate for the year to June 2018 is 5929 per 100,000 resident population, which is a 17.4 percent decrease compared to the previous 12 month period. Since July 2015, the government has provided more than $1.4 million in funding under the Community Crime Prevention program for 18 projects to improve community safety in Casey. The Casey area joins another 63 local gov-

Member for Cranbourne District, Jude Perera MP at Cranbourne Police Station. ernment areas across Victoria's 79 that have experienced a decrease in their crime rate compared to the previous 12 months. Importantly, the Crime Statistics Agency (CSA) data also shows that family violence continues to be one of the most significant contributors of violence against the person in our state. This is in addition to the Labor Government's

historic $2.6 billion investment into the prevention of family violence. Recommendations from the Royal Commission are currently being rolled out to boost police capability and powers. The fall in crime comes as they give police the biggest boost to its numbers in history, with 96 new police already allocated to Casey this year. The record $2 billion investment into Victoria Police funded 3135 frontline police to be deployed by 2022, along with new technology, state-of-the-art equipment and facilities and stronger laws to crack down on crime. Member for Cranbourne District, Jude Perera MP welcomed the latest statistics from the independent CSA but also said more work needs to be done to continue to drive crime down further. "Our unprecedented investment in Victoria Police is making a difference with the crime rate continuing to fall - quarter on quarter - as more frontline police hit the streets," he said. "There's still more work to do - we want to drive the crime rate down in our local area as low as possible.

"We back Victoria Police and we will continue to give them the resources, technology and the equipment they need to respond to and crack down on crime in our community." Shadow Minister for Police, Edward O'Donohue said Casey police had been underresourced for "far too long" due to Daniel Andrews' "neglect of police numbers which saw the Police Academy a virtual ghost town for over two years." "Daniel Andrews has cut frontline police while violent crimes against Victorians continue to increase," he said. "The November state election will be a referendum on who can fix violent crime in Victoria and that's why the Liberals will build a new 24/7 police station at Clyde North." The Liberals have promised to build a new 24 hour, 7 days a week Clyde North Police Station if elected.Member for Bass, Brian Paynter said: "Daniel Andrews and Labor has ignored the people of Clyde North while our homes have been invaded and businesses terrorised."

Litterbugs in the Hunt are driving Sandra to distraction By Brendan Rees An elderly resident has spoken of her disgust with the amount of litter piling up outside a Cranbourne East shopping centre, labelling the matter an "absolute disgrace." Sandra Roach said she was shocked by the amount of cigarette butts, takeaway rubbish, bottles and even used nappies left lying around the Hunt Club Village Shopping Centre - despite there being nearby bins. Ms Roach, a resident of 50 years, says she picked up what she could but has called on Casey Council to employ more bylaws officers to patrol the area."I am saddened and disgusted at the amount of litter I see every day when I walk," she said. Mr Roach, a Casey Australia Day Citizen of the year recipient in 2004, says she "used to be proud to live in Cranbourne, now I am angry and sad. "I cannot imagine how anybody has the mentality to do that but they do," she said. "If I see someone throwing litter from a stationary car or moving car and I'm in a position to take a photo of the rego then I'll do that and report back to the EPA - no hesitation at all." She added: "If you have takeaway how hard is it to take it home with you and put it in the bin." Casey Council's manager of waste and landfill management, Michael Jansen said the shopping centre was on private land and not maintained by Council, "however Council's Litter Prevention Officers have spoken with centre management about the problem and secured agreement from the centre to conduct regular maintenance of their car park and surrounding grassed areas." He said officers did a follow up inspection in late August and found the main area "well maintained and serviced with both rubbish

Cranbourne East resident Sandra Roach is encouraging people to use the bins at the Hunt Club Pictures: STEWART CHAMBERS Shopping Centre. 184731 and recycling bins." Mr Jansen said council also had a comprehensive waste and litter education program which included school visits and community events, including the Waste and Recycling Information Session held in August which was attended by more than 70 residents. "Authorised officers are patrolling our municipality every day and will take enforcement action for litter related offences; however, Council relies heavily on residents to report littering and illegal dumping," he said. In the two months since 1 July 2018, coun-

cil has issued 56 litter related infringements across Casey. Meanwhile, Ms Roach says "every time we drop something it's costing us money for someone to clean it up." She said she would like to think children were being educated in litter prevention programs in schools. "We need to ensure kids from kinder on understand what littering does to our planet, adding "we need to turn our mentality around." To report litterers visit www.casey.vic.gov. au/litter.

Cups raised for kids By Brendan Rees Staff at Highview Accounting and Financial in Cranbourne has been recognised after fundraising more than $25000 for a charity aimed at keeping children safe from violence. The Alannah and Madeline Foundation hosted a special morning tea to say thank you to all staff for their valuable contribution on Tuesday 18 September. Guest speaker, Zan Schmidt who is the foundation's community fundraising coordinator spoke to the group about the difference their financial contribution had made to hundreds of children. The company raised more than $13000 in 2017 with Silvio Marinelli, partner of Highview also personally fundraising more than $12000 by participating in the Run Melbourne Half Marathon in August. "Zan showed the team a clip prepared by the foundation, and it was a real touching moment for staff to see exactly where the fundraising goes and how our support is helping to keep children safe from violence," said Highview marketing manager Brodie Crowther. "Highview were the Alannah Madeline Foundation's second highest fundraiser in 2017." Ms Crowther said she hoped their fundrais-

Mr Marinelli, who was presented with a framed memento, said he was "incredibly grateful" to all those that donated and supported him during his half marathon. "I was able to take 17 minutes off last years' time and raise a total of $12108.57," he said. Mr Marinelli said he was motivated to make "everyday count" after losing a friend to cancer in 2016.

"Seeing the impact that our fundraising directly made to this foundation was uplifting. Our funds made a positive impact in the lives of over 260 children in 2017," he said. Highview will be hosting a trivia night at the Cranbourne Turf Club on Thursday 15 November and aim to sell more than 300 tickets to again raise funds for the Alannah and Madeline Foundation. "We've set a goal of raising another $10K at our trivia night," said Ms Crowther. For ticket visit: www.stickytickets.com. au/74924.

Fire crews were called to a service station in Cranbourne West after an LPG tank began leaking gas on Saturday 22 September. Twenty firefighters from Cranbourne and Narre Warren with the support of a HAZMAT appliance from Hallam arrived at the BP service station on Frankston Cranbourne Road near Monahans Road about 1pm. A CFA spokesman said the leak was a result of a truck striking a valve on the 30000 litre LPG tank, which was 70 per cent full at the time. There was no evacuation or reported injuries. It is believed a truck from a nearby building site caused the damage to the gas valve. Firefighters safeguarded the scene until a BP gas tanker arrived to transfer the remaining gas. Fire crews remained at the site until 10pm. A community safety message was issued about 7.30pm for Botanic Ridge and Cranbourne West areas; however there was no immediate threat. Worksafe also attended.

Trackside fire Casey Crime Investigation Unit are investigating a fire that occurred close to the railway tracks, near the corner of Breens and Monahans Road, Cranbourne West.

Let there be light

Need for more

We are disturbed to read that the Pakenham public celebration of the Diwali Festival of Lights is under threat because of bureaucratic red tape. We attended the inaugural festival last year in P.B. Ronald Reserve. It was a great occasion, an opportunity to meet the shire’s Indian community and see something of its culture on display, a variety of high quality food and a stream of enthusiastic dancers. The event was also attended by Cr Brett Owen, at that time the mayor, and Cr Michael Schilling. Cr Owen, resplendent in traditional white Indian clothing rather than his mayoral gowns, showed every sign of enjoying himself as he circulated in the crowd and danced to the music. According to Star News of 20 September, the festival is organised entirely by volunteers from the Indian community, through the Indian Association Casey Cardinia (IACC), and they have already spent $10,000 to meet council criteria for venue hire. Now they have been asked to produce a “comprehensive traffic management report”, at their own expense, before council will approve the venue. This is threatening IACC’s ability to hold Diwali. Last year’s event attracted almost 1000 people. Was this even allowed to proceed without a “comprehensive traffic management report”? If so, how is the situation different this year? We wonder if similar restrictions are imposed on other voluntary events in Pakenham, such as Yakkerboo, which surely faces a greater “traffic management” issue in closing off several streets for the annual Yakkerboo parade. Also, the council donates $15,000 to the Pakenham Racing Club each year for its Kids Night Out event. In our understanding, the Racing Club is not a not-for-profit community group. Every community on this planet, both large and small, relies on regular events to celebrate community spirit and bring people out of their homes to gather together. In mainstream Australian culture, events such as Christmas and the AFL Grand Final serve such a purpose. People from other cultures, migrating to Australia, bring us their joyful celebrations as well as their tax dollars. Surely few find it strange that the German Oktoberfest and the Greek Glendi Festival, to name only two, are now a familiar part of Australian culture, and can reasonably be called mainstream. By accepting these festivals and celebrations, we are welcoming those members of our community, and celebrating the acceptance of diversity in Australian culture which most people readily acknowledge to be one of its most vital features. Is our council showing a welcoming attitude to the Indian community by imposing restrictions such as Diwali faces? Or is the council prepared to support the community spirit by getting behind Diwali, rather than extinguishing the Festival of Light with a blanket of paperwork? Span Hanna and Cheryl Gosling, Pakenham.

I have been informed our local council does in fact advocate and lobby the State Government for Housing Commission and other types of shelter. I am informed that there’s a waiting list over 400, for local Commission Housing: and back in 2016 it appeared there were over 1000

Building upgrades soon Cranbourne East Secondary College will soon have important new works undertaken, thanks to the Andrews Labor Government. Member for Cranbourne Jude Perera announced the upgrade, with $170,000 allocated to upgrade the school's Wellness Centre. The Andrews Labor Government is working to strengthen community pride in schools and build the Education State so that every Victorian student gets the opportunity for a great education and every community has access to a great school. The project is part of a $3.8 billion investment by the Government to improve class-

rooms, upgrade facilities and build new schools. The school building boom has delivered more than 1300 school upgrades and 70 new school projects across the state, supporting more than 5000 construction jobs for Victorians. For further information about the Government's record school construction and upgrade program visit the Victorian School Building Authority website: www.schoolbuildings.vic.gov.au. "We're upgrading schools across Victoria so families can know that no matter where they

live they can access a great local school the whole community is proud of," member for Cranbourne Jude Perera said. "This upgrade is about more than giving Cranbourne East Secondary College students the school facilities they deserve - it's about helping build community pride in a great local school. "Labor built Cranbourne East Secondary College and this much needed upgrade will certainly go a long way in supporting the health and wellbeing of each and every student at Cranbourne East Secondary College."

The wellness centre will certainly play an integral role in the health and well being of the students at Cranbourne East Secondary. Pictured: Cranbourne East Secondary College students with Member for Cranbourne Jude Perera.

Superheroes unite for special fund-raiser By Jessica Anstice

Super Hero foundation students Scarlett, Lucas, Bennett, Leon and Ethan were out of their seats at the assembly for Cody Wallace. 185138 PICTURE STEWART CHAMBERS.

Students, teachers, and parents at Clyde Primary School dressed up as superheros to support the very brave Cody Wallace on Friday, 21 September. The day was put on to help raise funds for a seizure alert pup for Cody. Cody has had an extensive medical history, beginning his journey with the Royal Children's Hospital before he was two years old, following a diagnosis of a choroid plexus papilloma (brain tumour) and hydrocephalous (fluid on the brain). Since, Cody has had nine brain surgeries. Early in 2017, Cody was diagnosed with hypothalamus dysfunction that inhibits his body's ability to produce cortisol. Cortisol is the hormone responsible for the flight or fight response for the body, so if Cody is sick, loses consciousness, or breaks a bone, his body starts to shut down rather than fight to stay alive.

Since 2010, Cody has been battling epilepsy. Cody's brain is in a state of constant seizure activity that has been resistant to all medications and this has had a detrimental impact on his memory, cognition, ability to learn and gross and finer motor functions. He has suffered countless convulsive seizures that will not stop on their own, without medical intervention. "The dress up day on Friday was to show each and every person at Clyde Primary School that anyone can be a superhero and we all have certain strengths within us and the qualities that make us truly heroic," Cody's mum Tracy Wallace said. "Cody was overwhelmed that it was all in his honour and all for him - he now knows that so many more people are behind him and love him. "The response from the community has been more than we could ever have thought possible so many people/strangers have banded together to help support and raise funds in

assistance to acquire a seizure alert pup for Cody." On Friday night, Cody's brother Ronan ran onto the ground with the Collingwood Football Club, on behalf of Cody, before the preliminary final against Richmond. "Ronan running out on Cody's behalf was amazing and something that he has to keep and can watch whenever he wants," Ms Wallace said. "Ronan was lucky enough to be wearing a GoPro recording the moment just so Cody could see what it was like as if he was the one running through the banner. Collingwood Football Club gifted Ronan a Guernsey that says 'This is for you Cody' on the back and gifted Cody a signed Guernsey with his name on the back. Clyde Primary School raised a total of $712. The Wallace Family are totally blown away by everyone's generosity and would like to thank everyone for all they have done.

Doveton Drought Relief Fundraiser SUNDAY 7 OCTOBER, 2018 12PM - 6PM JOHN PANDAZOPOULOS HALL 78 POWER RD, DOVETON $10 ENTRY CONTACT JENNY COLVIN ON 0402 286 935 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

Spurred on by the hardship experienced by our farmers, Doveton icons, Ruth Murray & Jenny Colvin have organised entertainers from all over Australia to come to Doveton to perform nonstop music all day to help raise funds. Every dollar raised will go to Drought Angels. A remarkable organisation which provides on the ground support for our farmers.

A bundle of joy arrives Eucalyptus delights, endless naps, fury cuddles — Moonlit Sanctuary's first-ever born koala joey has finally climbed out of the pouch. Energised with nourishing pap, Banjo is ready to ride on its mum's back and see the world. Following months of suspense since February, the little male marsupial finally arrived at the Pearcedale Conservation Park. In the early days, Banjo spent a long time in the mum's pouch and fully attached to her teat. As it grew bigger, bits and pieces of its body appeared from time to time. Occasionally it would stick a leg out of the pouch, then an arm or its head a few days later. Some days, it pulled most of its body out to take a quick look around, before quickly hopping back in. Banjo is now seven months old and is mostly hanging out on its mum's back. Visitors are welcome to see it at the latest exhibit - a 10,000 sq. ft koala experience. Beautifully built with care, it includes five habitats for the koalas, specially set up to encourage their breeding. Visitors will also find an encounter area where they can get real close and even cuddle up to a koala. After years of friendship, Tehree Gordon, the co-founder of Jirrahlinga Koala and Wildlife Sanctuary, happily assisted in loaning a breeding male koala to Michael Johnson, the director of Moonlit Sanctuary. Mr Johnson said successfully breeding a koala in captivity was a grand premiere for Moonlit. "This level of cooperation between wildlife parks is extremely important to maintain a viable population of koalas," he said. Considered a national treasure, koalas are now sadly a threatened species in NSW and QLD because of a dramatic reduction of their natural habitat, dog attacks, climate change and disease. Described as one of the top destinations on the Mornington Peninsula, Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park is renowned for excelling in conservation and breeding programs, and for its passion for Australian wildlife.

Moonlit Sanctuary has welcomed its first ever born koala joey named Banjo.

One year birthday bash By Brendan Rees The Narre Warren and District Family History Group have created their own history by celebrating their first anniversary since moving to Cranbourne Library. Members of the group and visitors gathered at the Cranbourne Library on Monday 24 September for a celebratory cake. Visitors were also able to access free expert advice on local history and genealogical research. President of the Narre Warren anmd District Family History Group Lynne Bradley said: "Our membership and meeting attendance is up, while our members are really enjoying our new research room," she said. Casey Cardinia Libraries CEO Chris Buckingham said it had been a great first year. "We love having them at Cranbourne Library - they provide a really good community service, not only helping people find about their own history and the community's history but also it's a gathering," he said. He said the group provided a great community resource: "They're just really happy in each other's company - they're really happy in the Cranbourne Library." "It is a reflection that libraries are more than just books - that we are a gathering place where people can learn and grow together." Local History Librarian Heather Arnold said the event was well attended: "It was a fun morning catching up with everyone and promoting history." "We had a fabulous cake and it was good to look back on the year," she said. "This has been a good opportunity to promote the fact that we're still here; we've just moved to Cranbourne. We haven't been demolished with the Narre Warren Library." Ms Arnold said the group were initially apprehensive about moving to Cranbourne "but now they're here, they love it and they've got

Casey groups on a winner Casey Council is looking for eligible community groups that provide support services to apply for funds as part of the Lynbrook Hotel Community Contributions Fund. As a condition of its gaming licence, the Lynbrook Hotel has been directed by the Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation (VCGLR) to make an annual cash contribution to the City of Casey. Casey will receive an annual contribution of $68000 from the Hotel to be distributed to the community in accordance with the conditions of the licence. The City of Casey will administer these funds under the name - the Lynbrook Hotel Community Contributions Fund. City of Casey Mayor Cr Geoff Ablett said that in accepting to administer the gaming machine contributions and distribute them to the community, Council is in no way endorsing gaming and gambling providers, products or services. "We have agreed to take on this responsibility to ensure our community is benefiting and receiving the contributions in a way that provides support back to the communities that need it most", Cr Ablett said. "The funds will primarily be distributed to benefit residents of Lynbrook, Lyndhurst and Hampton Park, being the primary patron catchment of the venue, and for the wider

Casey community," he said. "The distribution of these funds will positively benefit members of the community via the allocation of funds to community groups and organisations that support individuals who are experiencing hardship as a result of problem gambling, that support mental health through activities that promote resilience, social inclusion and social connection, and that promote alternate recreational activities in the municipality to achieve a balance of lifestyle choices for the community. "Our position on gaming machines has not changed and we are very aware of the social detriment that is caused to our communities as a result of gaming machines. We will continue to maintain our responsibilities to the community including social responsibilities in relation to gaming." An information session will be held on 8 October at 7pm at the Lynbrook Community Centre. Applications will open online from 8 October until 2 November. Applications and guidelines will be available at www.casey.vic.gov.au/ fundingandgrants.

The Lynbrook Hotel Community Contributions Fund is opening soon.

Dancer Rahni shines at Schools Spectacular By Brendan Rees

Rahni Wightman of Cranbourne Secondary College was overwhelmed to win a prestigious performance arts scholarship. Picture: CONTRIBUTED

12388226-CG22-18

When Rahni Wightman began dancing at the age of two, she never imagined someday she would receive a honourable dance award. But that's what happened on Saturday 15 September when the Cranbourne Secondary College student participated in the Victorian State Schools Spectacular where she took out a performing arts scholarship. "When I was awarded with the scholarship I was speechless," said Rahni. "I did not expect to be selected for the scholarship and I am so incredibly grateful to have been chosen for it." The $25000 scholarship was presented to Rahni by Jason Coleman who has been a fixture of the Australian Dance scene for more than twenty years. "I started dancing at the age of two and it has always been my dream to work as a professional dancer," Rahni said. "Being given this opportunity has just brought me one step closer to being able to fulfil my dream." The Year 12 student said she chose to participate in event because she had such a great time in performing in previous years. "I am able to make new friends who are all like-minded and passionate as well as work

A woman has been arrested and a man is still outstanding following a pursuit in Cranbourne on September 20. Police first spotted the Ford wagon displaying false plates travelling at high speed on Breens Road, Cranbourne about 12.15am. It was tracked to a petrol station on McClelland Drive, Frankston where a passenger attempted to refuel the vehicle. An attempt was made to intercept the car at the service station and it sped off leaving the female passenger behind. The passenger, a 19-year-old Cranbourne woman, was subsequently arrested as she attempted to flee on foot. A pursuit was initiated before being terminated for safety reasons. The vehicle was tracked to Elwood where it was dumped in Coleridge Street just before 1am. Police conducted a search of the area but could not locate the driver. The Cranbourne woman has been released to attend court at a later date and is expected to be charged with theft and conduct endangering life. Police are making enquiries with regards to the identity of the driver of the Ford wagon. Police are investigating. Anyone who witnessed the car or has any other information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

with many amazing people who are already in the industry, who are able to mentor us to become the best performers we can be," she said. More than 3000 Victorian students from more than 200 government schools participated in this year's performance at Hisense Arena, which featured a 75-piece orchestra, a 1300-voice choir, 1200 dancers and a variety of other performers. School assistant principal George Massouris said the school was incredibly proud of Rhani. "She's now got the opportunity to take up the scholarship and continue performing arts - for our school, it's a fantastic thing to have," he said. Year 11 student Joseph Stewart also sang at the Spectacular who is part of the school band called Common Boys. "He sang a couple of numbers and was also magnificent," Mr Massouris said.

THE FUTURE OF SUSTAINABLE LIVING LIVING IN a contemporary family home in the suburbs with no energy bills is now closer to reality -built by SJD Homes, you can see it at Parklea Developments’ Timbertop Estate in Officer. In 2017, Parklea and SJD Homes joined forces to construct Melbourne’s first Zero Energy Home - a home that meets its own energy requirements - as part of a groundbreaking research project funded by the Cooperative Research Centre (CRC) for Low Carbon Living. After much anticipation, the ZEH designed and built by SJD Homes, will be launched and open to the public next week. The aim of the CRC’s Mainstreaming Zero Energy Homes project is to better understand the costs and consumer interest in Zero Energy Homes by following three developers and builders who constructed and designed sustainable homes in Victoria, Queensland and the ACT. Jarod Mills, Sales and Marketing Manager at Parklea is passionate about environmental initiatives and the vision is to ensure all volume homes can be built for people to enjoy a sustainable, healthy future. “The market really wants to know about viable sustainability. We’re thrilled to be part of a project where we can learn more and offer people what they want. A Zero Energy Home applies simple changes to mainstream volume builders,” said Mr Mills. The SJD Zero Energy Home at Timbertop was planned to meet the needs of an average family household. Through innovative design, clever use of materials, quality construction, and the incorporation of energy generating features, the home meets all of its energy needs all year round. Energy efficiency measures include orienting the house so that it takes advantage of the natural elements to maximise solar power generation and

SJD Homes principal Simon Dunstan outside the new sustainable Z Range home in Newark Place, Officer. minimise heat loss; installing high grade window glazing; extensive use of insulation; selection of high-efficiency cooking, heating and cooling appliances; and installation of a heat pump for the hot water service. The solar power system comprises a 5KW battery and 17 solar panels to keep running costs down. “By doing all these adjustments, we’ve met zero net carbon, so this house will produce as much energy as it consumes, making it carbon neutral,” says Rod

Fitzsimmons, sales manager of SJD Homes. The project has shown that Zero Energy Homes don't have to cost much more than a standard build. “A standard Zero Energy Home might cost around $10,000 on top of the build to cover the price of the sustainable extras; but in the long run, the savings are enormous as energy bills are heavily reduced.” According to a recent report by CRC for Low Carbon Living, if all new homes were built as Zero Energy Homes, total emissions

could be reduced by around 700,000 tonnes per year. Supported by the South East Councils Climate Change Alliance (SECCCA) and CSIRO, the project is a first for Melbourne and a positive sign for the future of sustainable residential construction in Australia. The Zero Energy Home display is now open for viewing from 12pm - 5pm daily, at Timbertop Estate, Officer (Newark Place). ●

MARKETING AWARDS FOR TEAM FACEY FACEY Industrial Commercial has been judged the leaders in marketing for the third consecutive year at the REIV Commercial and Industrial Marketing Awards. The Facey team took home two awards at Watermark in Docklands on Thursday 13 September. The successful campaigns were for the sale of a commercial property at 15 Langmore Lane in Berwick and an industrial property at 1,2 and 3/5 Berends Drive in Dandenong. Facey was also a finalist for the campaign run for 11 Levinda Drive in Carrum Downs. Director Mark Bond was thrilled with the success and paid tribute to the dedicated team.

“This year’s double win, along with wins in two previous years, cement Facey Industrial Commercial’s position as the most innovative and strategic marketers of commercial real estate in Melbourne’s great South East,” Mr Bond said. REIV president Richard Simpson said the awards are a great opportunity to recognise the increasingly innovative and tailored campaigns. “Each year, the judges are blown away with the level of consideration and attention to detail that goes into these campaigns: this year we’ve seen dedicated websites, a film series and drone photography as well as traditional print advertising, signage and brochures.” ●

NEWS

Retracing a life’s journey By Cam Lucadou-Wells Denise Lyons' grand plans to reprise her inspirational 32-kilometre charity walk in memory of her late sister Anne has taken an unplanned detour. But she and the walk, which supports research into the 'forgotten cancers', are still steaming ahead on 8 September. Ms Lyons, a personal assistant at Dandenong Hospital, had become an avid walker despite the "daily reminders" of her own cancer survival. However at the start of the year, her daily walks were cruelled by a painful foot-ligament injury, plantar fasciitis. "I'm absolutely hating it," she says. "The doctors say the only treatment is rest. It's a slow process." Last year, she raised $4200 when she trekked from her childhood home in Nar Nar Goon to Hampton Park. She travelled via Pakenham, Officer, Beaconsfield and Berwick to St Kevin's Catholic Church, Hampton Park - where her sister Anne's funeral service was held 16 years ago to the day. The walk, in a way, covers the geographical arc of Anne's life. Next month, Ms Lyons is aiming to cover about half the trip - as well as giving strong

support to her son Sam and other family and friends over the remaining 16 kilometres. In the leadup, it's been a chance to delve through old photos and remember her effervescent, life-loving sister. Anne was just 30 when first diagnosed with pancreatic cancer - the same illness that claimed her father. She still loved life even while living with the illness for seven years, Ms Lyons said. "She could tell a story with her hands. "She was full of life, energy and fun." Ms Lyons was diagnosed with cancer herself six years ago, and underwent two surgeries, chemo and radiotheraphy. Daily, she endures lymphoedema and the occasional stinging pain. She has to avoid cuts, and take daily medication. But she considers herself one of the lucky ones. And along the way, she fell in love with walking. "When you walk you solve all the problems of the world. "It's a quiet time to think through all the things in your life. "You see so much when you walk." To donate, go to the Cancer Council page https://myownway.everydayhero.com/au/ annie-s-way-2018

Join in the Ageing Positively Festival fun

Hundreds of residents joined in the fun during last year's Ageing Positively Festival.

The City of Casey's annual Ageing Positively Festival will run again throughout October, offering more than 100 events and activities for residents aged 55 and over. Held each year in conjunction with the Victorian Seniors Festival, the festival is a celebration of Casey's older residents and their ongoing contribution to the municipality. City of Casey Mayor Cr Geoff Ablett encouraged Casey residents to check out the actionpacked program and join in the festival fun. "Council, community groups and organisations across Casey will be hosting a variety of events and activities where older residents can get active, learn something new, meet new people and have fun," Cr Ablett said. "The theme for this year's festival is 'Get Social' and there's a diverse mix of events and activities for our senior residents to get out and about in their community and make new friends. "Council will be putting on two feature events as part of this year's Ageing Positively Festival, both of which are free shows at Bunjil Place. "One show is aimed at grandparents and carers to enjoy together with their grandchildren to acknowledge the special role that they play, and the other is a celebration of all things Broadway, so book your tickets to avoid missing out. "The Ageing Positively Festival is one way in which Council celebrates our older residents and works to ensure they feel valued, supported and connected to their community." Residents can claim free tickets to the two feature events of the Ageing Positively Festival,

to be held in the Bunjil Place Theatre: Red Racing Hood To celebrate Grandparents/Carers Day, Council is hosting a special event to be enjoyed with the grandkids. Produced by Terrapin Puppet Theatre, the show reimagines everyone's favourite characters from the famous fairytale into the small town of Grinalong. Date: Tuesday 2 October. Session 1: 10am. Session 2: 12.30pm. Swinging on Broadway Take a trip down memory lane to an era

when the likes of Louis Armstrong, Peggy Lee, Tony Bennett and Ol' Blue Eyes regularly topped the charts with Broadway toe-tappers. Melissa Langton will be swinging down Broadway with a mix of classic show tunes and some playful reinterpretations of more recent Broadway favourites! Date: Wednesday 10 October. Time: 10.30am. Check out the full program and book your tickets at www.casey.vic.gov.au/ageingpositively or call Council Customer Service on 9705 5200 to request a program booklet.

Casey U3A Casey U3A classes for retirees will be held in

The Berwick Pipers INC is interested in attracting new members to its group, particularly experienced bagpipe players. The group play B Flat chanters in our bagpipes as it gives them the greatest chance of helping concert bands and orchestras. The Pipers are a group of musicians who play the Great Highland Bagpipe. They have assisted Berwick Rotary on Australia days at Pioneer Park by playing in the Official Party and providing incidental music around the grounds. They perform around the City of Casey at a variety of venues to entertain the public but we also teach learners to play the great highland bagpipe. Despite the group currently having a midyear break, lessons for their learners continue. Email berwickpipers16@gmail.com or visit the website at www.berwickpipers.info. The group's secretary Steve Everett and tutor can be contacted on 03 97296219 or 0425 826 990.

of ways, and he understood that it was always going to be transition when he signed up for the role two years ago. But he said there was a sadness to be leaving behind a "wonderful playing group". "I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity I got at the club to start my coaching career and develop myself- I have enormous admiration for the players and how they've sustained a successful period for the club," he said.

Picture: ROB CAREW "I'm internally grateful for the committee to make this club better each year and create a culture and place that's the envy of other clubs. "I'm also grateful to the family to allow me to put the time in to coach." Kemperman also said he is exploring his options at local and elite level and that his two premierships has only fuelled him to continue working on his coaching.

Dandy Rays-es the TAC Cup By Hayley Wildes

12398531-RA40-18

One of the key architects of Berwick's back-toback SEFNL premierships, dual premiership coach Stewart Kemperman, has parted ways with the club after just two years in the job. The former Noble Park champion signed on with the club in his first senior coaching role in 2017, and guided the Wickers to back-to-back flags for just the second time in the club's illustrious history just days ago at Edwin Flack Reserve against Narre Warren. Club president Glenn Gambetta confirmed the massive news on Tuesday afternoon to the News after a series of meetings, and said that they have parted ways amicably after discussions with Kemperman about the future direction of the club. Gambetta also confirmed that Rhys Nisbet, the 2015 premiership coach, will coach the club from 2019 as it enters 'AFL Outer East', describing it as a "transition". "Obviously it's a very difficult decision to end Stewart's time at the club, but the original plan was to offer him a two-year contract with the option of a third year," Gambetta said. "The transition from Rhys to Stewart was a smooth one, but we were always aware that Rhys was keen to return to the fold after a twoor-three year hiatus. "Rhys is now fully committed to returning to the fold, he's a Berwick boy through and through, and we're delighted to have him back on board." Gambetta said Kemperman wanted to coach a third year and understood the club's stance, and swiftly denied that there were any issues with Kemperman and the playing group, reiterating that it's all part of the transition back to Nisbet. "We asked for the players' input, and they

The Dandenong Stingrays are the 2018 TAC Cup Premiers. After 27 years and five grand final losses, the Stingrays finally claimed their maiden TAC Cup Premiership at IKON Park on Saturday afternoon. With the rampant Oakleigh Chargers standing between them and the trophy, the Rays rose to the occasion when it mattered most. Riley Bowman booted the first goal of the game after a tremendous second effort tackle for which he was rewarded with a shot on goal. Despite the best efforts of Lachlan Young and Daniel Frampton in defence, Oakleigh held a seven-point lead at the first break. The second quarter was when the Rays made their premiership move. Of course, it was co-captain Campbell Hustwaite who led from the front. He was on the bottom of packs, running out of packs and tackling as if his life depended on it. Bailey Williams put through his first major of the day at the four-minute mark, then the speedy Jai Taylor inspired his teammates with a chase down tackle in the middle of the ground, leading to a Toby Bedford goal. Just two minutes later, Hustwaite ran through the middle of the ground, drove the ball deep forward and Ed Cahill snuck through

another Dandenong major. It was a four-minute stretch of football that gave Dandenong the confidence it could execute its game plan against the loaded Chargers. The Rays held a 14-point lead at half time, 38-24. Oakleigh kicked a goal just one minute into the third term, but the Rays responded. Finlay Bayne got on the scoreboard, and then 40 seconds later Lachlan McDonnell slotted a beautiful running goal to have Dandenong 21 points in front. The third quarter turned into a complete arm-wrestle and with 25 minutes of football left in the season, the Rays had a 23-point lead. With 12 minutes to play, Dandenong held a 29-point lead, but the Chargers weren't done and after a Jack Ross goal with five minutes left to play, Oakleigh was just 12 points adrift. Oakleigh's Dylan Williams snapped a goal with two-and-a-half minutes remaining and it was just a goal the difference. The final couple of minutes were frantic, but Dandenong's defence stood tall and simply wouldn't allow the Chargers to get the goal they so desperately craved. The Rays held on for a thrilling six-point win, claiming their maiden premiership in the club's sixth grand final appearance, 12.8 (80) to 11.8 (74). cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

Berwick City is kicking real goals

Black’s swansong has a fairytale end By Hayley Wildes Heading into the big dance with a 0-5 record in grand finals, this Dandenong side was determined to write its own history. It was reward for a truly incredible season from the Stingrays. Just one loss all season was credit to the teamwork and desire to work for one another. Whenever they were challenged throughout the season - including, most importantly, in the grand final - they responded. The likes of co-captain Campbell Hustwaite, Ed Cahill, Riley Bowman, Bailey Wiliams and Zac Foot were sublime on the biggest day of the year. The defence was steadfast against an Oakleigh forward pack that boasted speed and class. Lachlan Young simply wouldn't be beaten, while Daniel Frampton, Lachlan Stenning and Will Hamill were absolutely crucial down the stretch. But in fairness, it was a total team effort; all

23 players played their role and now they are all premiership players. For coach Craig Black - himself a former Stingrays player - in his final game with Dandenong, it was a fitting way to finish his time at the club. He has driven standards and developed some of the finest players in the land over his time with Dandenong and he heads to Collingwood in a development role as a TAC Cup Premiership coach. After the game, Black spoke about his nerves in those thrilling final minutes. "I was getting really nervous late, as you could imagine - I was counting down every second, but credit to the boys to be able to dig deep in a couple of really important moments," he said. "I thought we set the game up in that second quarter and luckily we were able to hold on. "Will Hamill and a couple of the defenders

just halved key contests and allowed a couple of stoppages late - I was about to run over and push the siren!" From Black's perspective, Dandenong's maiden TAC Cup premiership is reward for everyone involved. "It's a great reward for not just this year, but the people who put in a lot of hard work over 27 years - for our club to finally have success is outstanding and unbelievable," he said. The play of Riley Bowman and Bailey Williams - two key pillars who will be highly sought after in next month's AFL Draft - was crucial. "You just ask your big men to compete and I thought they both did that," Black said. "Riley in the ruck competed really well, which allowed us to use Bailey forward a bit more and a couple of time he just willed himself on the contest and he took a couple of important marks, which was fantastic."

By Hayley Wildes The Berwick City Tigers under-14A soccer squad has been playing together for three years and are showing no signs of slowing down. The 2018 campaign was a season of development and achievement for the allconquering Tigers team - undefeated on the pitch, with players growing into their roles as they worked together to dominate their opposition. Playing in the Football Federation Victoria (FFV ) Metropolitan Boys South under14A competition, the Berwick City side took all before it - scoring an incredible 80 goals in 20 games (including finals), while only conceding eight. In the grand final, played on 16 September in Burwood, the Tigers took on the best team from the West; the North Sunshine Eagles. As it had done all season, Berwick City played with a steely resolve and when chances to attack presented themselves, they took their opportunities. North Sunshine was no match for Berwick City as the side was crowned state champion with a 3-1 win. It capped off not only a remarkable season for Berwick City, but a remarkable three seasons. With the majority of the squad having been together since the under-12s in 2016, the players have showcased their abilities on the state and national stage. Since the beginning of the 2016 season, the team has played 52 matches, scoring 169 goals and conceding just 34 - an almost unheard-of efficiency on both ends of the pitch. Over that time, the side has claimed eight major trophies from various tournaments and championships. Head coach Milan Mihajlovic spoke about the way he wants his team to play. "My philosophy is to play an attacking style, keep possession and be compact in defence," he said. The attacking style of play has clearly paid dividends over the past three seasons and in 2017, the team won the Australian Football Skool International Tournament in Shepparton. With 100 teams from across Australia and overseas competing, the then under-13 Tigers team won a thrilling grand final against Sunshine George Cross. With scores locked at one-all at full time, a penalty shoot-out was needed to determine who would take home the trophy. Neither team gave an inch in the shoot-out, but the Tigers held their nerve and claimed the championship with a 7-6 penalty shoot-out win. With more major tournaments on the horizon, the Berwick City Tigers might be in the market for an even bigger trophy cabinet in the not too distant future.

The Casey Friendship Trophy was presented by Cranbourne chief John McKenna to some of Cranbourne's winning participants.

Cranbourne is ready to take on the best After last year's historic Division 1 Pennant victory, the Cranbourne ladies bowls team has been training hard over the off-season in preparation to take on the best teams in the state. The revised premier league competition has been incorporated into two super leagues, dividing Melbourne metropolitan into two groups - which ultimately means less travel time. Nonetheless, the standard of this competition will be very strong and the Cranbourne ladies are up for the challenge. The first game was scheduled against last year's premier league runner-up Clayton, playing away - a test that the ladies could recranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

ally look forward to. The first home game will be in Round 2 on 2 October against Doncaster, starting at 10.30am. The club encourages both the Cranbourne and general Casey community to come along and support the local side. Midweek bowls also starts this week, with three sides competing this year. Division 2 plays at Pakenham, Division 3 plays at home against Berwick, and the six-aside outfit plays at Keysborough. During the pre-season the Casey friendship competition took place with final results being: 1st Cranbourne 664 shots, 2nd Narre War-

ren 600 shots, 3rd Hampton Park 555 shots, 4th Cranbourne RSL 518 shots. The friendship trophy was organised to enhance club camaraderie and bring some fun into bowls. Besides playing bowls, players enjoyed additional fun - engaging in trivial pursuit, picka-box, and charades after each game. Each team took turns hosing the games over four months and a range of prizes were given out after each event, which were all well catered for by the host club. All clubs agreed that it was a great concept that will be an ongoing event.
