CHRISTMAS IN NARRE WARREN AND FOUNTAIN GATE

Have a cozy Christmas Father and son business owners Zaman and Yaser Fazil wish all their customers a merry Christmas and happy and safe New Year. Zaman and Yaser have owned and managed Cozy Indoor Outdoor Furniture in Narre Warren for nine years. It’s a family business journey that Yaser says has been “epic“. “We love seeing happy customers who know they can come to our store and purchase furniture that will be stylish and comfortable as they entertain their friends and families,“ he said. “Customers keep referring us to their family and friends so this has been an epic journey.“ Cozy Furniture used to be The Outdoor Furniture Specialists. Zaman and Yaser have rebranded and expanded the store’s range now stocking both indoor and outdoor furniture as well as giftware and accessories. “We always have each other’s back and know each other’s strengths and weaknesses,“ said Yaser. “We encourage one another to push our limits.“ An accountant, Zaman has always been self-employed. “Not many shops have a large range of outdoor furniture and we believed we could bring value to customers as they can visit one shop and have a large range to choose from,“ Zaman explained. Yaser has a sales and marketing degree and worked for Coles and a high end rug business

Marco Ciavarella is the face of fresh food in Narre Warren North.

Fresh food king in store Zaman and Yaser have a great range of furniture perfect for outdoor entertaining. 187924 before joining his father in the furniture business. “At Cozy Furniture we pride ourselves on offering top quality products, exclusive designs and exeptional customer service as well as outstanding after sales service,“ said Yaser. Zaman and Yaser say the furniture industry is challenging but that they both love a challenge. “Along this journey we have seen so many trends and learnt how the furniture can portray someone’s personality.“

Nourishing people with good, wholesome food runs in Marco Ciavarella’s blood. Marco, wife Annette and son Anthony own Marco’s IGA plus Liquor in Narre Warren North. This year the store celebrated its 10th anniversary. Prior to opening the supermarket in 2008, the family ran a general store in the same Narre Warren North shopping strip. Marco loves the grocery business. He is proud of what he has created, which is a store where fresh food is the star of the show. The Ciavarellas employ 48 staff, 80 per cent of whom live in the local area. Marco believes it is his commitment to freshness and price that allows his supermarket to compete with the likes of Woolworths and Coles. “We can definitely compete with them on specials, there is no doubt about it across all departments from fruit and vegetables to li-

quor and deli right through to meat.“ What really sets Marco's IGA apart however, is its old-fashioned service. One of Marco’s employees goes each day to the wholesale markets to collect fresh fruit and vegetables. He also employs two butchers and has five staff working on-site preparing fresh meals. He says the demand for fresh, ready-to-eat meals is one of the biggest changes of the past decade. “People aren’t cooking as much as they used to so we have taken our great deli and prepared meal area to next level.“ With Christmas nearly here, Marco says now is the time to place orders for fresh seafood and meat. Marco will take a day off on 25 December then customers can be assured he will be back at work, with the doors open on Boxing Day feeding a grateful Narre Warren North community.

Entertainment experts Since 1991, Cathy-Lea has been training students in performing arts including Ballet, Jazz, Tap, Contemporary Dance, Hip Hop, Drama, Singing, Musical Theatre and Instrumental Music. Many have gone onto careers on the stage in Australia and abroad and thousands have gained confidence, co-ordination, fitness, friendships and a love of performing arts from their experience at Cathy-Lea.

Focus on the big picture General manager of the Big Picture People Fountain Gate Alex Golod and his team love to see beaming smiles on customers’ faces as their dream home theatre becomes a reality. The team at the Big Picture People Fountain Gate has created a range of home cinema packages that take the confusion and stress out of choosing the right system. More than 20 Home Theatre Packages are on display ranging from $4,990 fully installed. “People can come in and experience different packages and price ranges,” Mr Golod explained. “In consultation with the customer

we can design a package with the best possible components to suit their budget and room sizes.” Packages typically include home theatre projectors, screens, speakers, amplifiers, Bluray players, screens and set top boxes. The Fountain Gate store offers by far the biggest range of those products in Australia. The Big Picture People can also supply theatre furniture, acoustic panelling, star ceilings, multi room audio and video distribution, smart home automation and security systems. The Big Picture People employs a team of

in-house installers and programmers who ensure that all equipment is fully installed. Home owners just have to walk in, sit down and press play. “We incorporate the equipment into customers’ day-to-day life. We look at what is suitable for their needs. Each house and each customer is different,” Mr Golod said. “Because of the quality of technology now available, it is even easier to create a real theatre experience at home.”

Learn with the best VFA Learning is the leading registered training organisation in Victoria when it comes to fitness and sport, early childhood education and care, remedial massage and myotherapy. The organisation started in Geelong 20 years ago and in 2019 the Narre Warren campus is celebrating 10 years of supplying the local fitness, massage and childcare industries with sought after graduates. Business development manager Jeremy Riley said VFA’s school leaver programs were tailored to students wanting to start a rewarding career in fitness and sport, early childhood education and care or remedial massage and

myotherapy but perhaps did VCAL or an unscored VCE. “Students will undertake a pre-training review to ensure they have chosen the right course for their goals, but an ATAR is not needed. Upon graduation these students will be industry qualified and have access to our higher education partnerships with Deakin and Federation Universities,“ Mr Riley explained. “In some cases students could receive close to a year of credits into a degree. He said VFA Learning offered students a unique local learning experience, with smaller

class sizes taught by industry professionals and one of the best student wellness programs in place to give students all the tools they need to achieve their study and career goals. “Whether you are a school leaver or looking for a career change or returning to the workforce, our flexible timetables free you up to manage work and study, speak to VFA Learning about our January 2019 intake by registering your details on our website at vfalearning. vic.edu.au“ VFA Learning is at 58 Victor Crescent, Narre Warren.

Carols a hit in Lynbrook

Vanessa Watson with her daughter Alexis, and Santa. Picture: ALI MOHSIN

A big crowd of Lynbrook residents gathered for a night of Christmas joy on Saturday 8 December. The annual carols event, hosted at Banjo Paterson Park in Lynbrook and organised by the Lynbrook Residents Association, was hailed a success. More than 500 people rolled out their rugs and blankets as they joined performers including Evolution Music, and Jessie and Michelle from Groove N Kids for a mix of Christmas Carols. Organiser Vanessa Watson said they were blessed with good weather despite heavy rain predicted. "Santa handed out six Cadbury chocolate sacks to the kids as presents and the elves had hundreds of lollies," she said. Fun included a free jumping castle, popcorn, fairy floss, and a free Moonlit Cinema screening of Disney's 'Mickey's Magical Christmas.' Ms Watson said they were close to cancelling the event for the first time in eight years. "We were blessed by Mother Nature; a storm rolled into Lynbrook at 3am that night and woke many of us up with a bang."

Christmas thief In a “blatant” day-light theft, a real life Grinch has swiped a life-size reindeer decoration from a Christmas display in front of dozens of shoppers. Karen, who asked for her surname not to be published, said she saw a man “jump out of the display with a reindeer in his hand” on the roof-top level of Cranbourne Park Shopping Centre on Monday 10 December, about 11.30am. “I yelled out ‘stop him.’ Everyone looked around and he gave me a funny look, and ran out the door into a black car,” she said. “He had it under his arm and hot-footed it out.”

Karen said she couldn’t believe the incident unfold before her eyes just as she had reached the top of the escalator above Kmart to go to her car. “I scurried as quickly as I could with my phone out, getting the camera up to try and get a shot of the car. Karen says she was about 30 metres away from the man, who acted alone when he took off with the reindeer. She said the man, described in his midtwenties to mid-thirties, dressed in dark “scruffy clothes,” medium build and about five foot, five inches, brown hair, ran to his car on the roof top.

“He put it (the reindeer) in the back seat,” Karen said. She said she saw another person in the front seat which she believes was “a woman because I saw long hair”. She said just as she was “ready to take his picture,” the man “stuck his finger up and speed off”. “(It was a) small black sedan; there was a rego but I couldn’t get closer enough for a photo,” Karen said. “He turned and presumed he gave me a dirty look because I yelled.” She described the reindeer as a “little white

In a statement, centre manager of Vicinity Centres Andrew Gibson said: “As the matter is subject of an investigation we are not able to comment any further at this stage”. “We’re disappointed, however we are looking forward to a great Christmas at Cranbourne Park,” he said.

IN BRIEF

Home for Christmas By Brendan Rees Living with two sets of clothing while looking after rescued cats for the past month, has not been easy for Daniela Maslen. The 2nd Chance Cat Rescue founder and her husband are hoping they can turn their luck around by Christmas after being left homeless in November. The couple were ready to move into their new property in Cranbourne until the sale of their Hampton Park home had fallen through. "Not knowing where you will be any day is a bit heartbreaking," Ms Maslen said. "Our cats are not happy to be locked away in enclosures for four weeks." According to Ms Maslen, the buyers were "in the process of getting a loan together." The couple have now been told settlement will be on Wednesday 12 December however "nothing is confirmed in writing." Meanwhile, they have been living in accommodation in Harkaway with their personal belongings stored in semi-trailers. "Our cars are packed to the max with all

"It's quite strange when you are left with only a spare set of clothing and you have to make do with what you have. "We never thought it would be this long. We thought it maybe three or four days. "Cats can adjust quite well but I would feel awful if I would be locked away in a small room

for four weeks," she added. Ms Maslen said she has been running her not-for-profit organisation with "great difficulties." "How do you run a business which needs access to a PC, internet and phone when nothing is available? "I now have to use the Library PC's and internet to do all my e-mails, and keeping the rescue afloat," she said. Christmas is the busiest time of year for 2nd Chance Cat Rescue with more than 100 cats and kittens in care, Ms Maslen said. "This time we only have about 40 which means a lot of kittens may still be homeless. "I would like to say a big thanks to all rescue groups who have come aboard and networked with 2nd Chance Cat Rescue to take in cats we were not able to accommodate." Calendars are a major fundraiser for 2nd Chance Cat Rescue during this time of year which can be purchased online at https://2ndchancecatrescue.bigcartel.com or the Pound Road Veterinary Clinic in Hampton Park.

Star, a seven-year-old thoroughbred mare was one of five horses available for adoption when Pearcedale's RSPCA shelter threw its doors open for its inaugural Horse Adoption Day on Saturday 8 December. Five tours were held at the sold-out event with three people submitting expressions of interest for horses. Star's racing career ended in 2015 due to injury and while she might not be winning prizes, she says "I sure am winning hearts; come and meet me and see for yourself."

Growth will deliver goods By Brendan Rees Australia's leading demographer told a crowded business breakfast "Our culture is continually changing and in business you need to read those changes". Bernard Salt, a former partner at KPMG, and a well-known writer, media personality and business advisor, was the guest speaker at the Casey Cardinia Business Breakfast at the Cranbourne Turf Club on Wednesday 28 November. He routinely appears as a commentator on a variety of business/current affair TV shows in Australia. In business, Mr Salt's specialties lie in tracking and understanding Australian demographics and the rest of the world. Mr Salt spoke about the evolution of consumer cultures, how the most recent generation will fit into today's business world and how companies can get the most out of their customer base and employees. "Over the last 10 years while you have been in business, conducting your life in this region, this region has added a 144,000 people; a city the size of Geelong in 10 years," he said. "Here is a place to be in business," he added. With the "bucket load of kids" to come, he says people "need to be in child minding, you need to be in kindergarten provision, you need to be in obstetrics, you need a big hospital I would've have thought - it's not rocket science." According to the latest census data, Mr Salt says Dandenong, which was "once the great manufacturing heartland of the Australian continent" offered 66,000 jobs - up 12,000 from 2011 to 2016. Logistics and warehousing made up the bulk of jobs, he said. "Dandenong is reinventing itself" and "adaptable to the new reality." "It's undulating land, house and land packages with a three or a four in front of it, can ac-

Guests enjoy some time networking. 188054 cess to the sixth largest job centre on the Australian continent - that is adding 12,000 jobs every five years. "What else could you possibly want? What I want is Melbourne's third airport ... at some point before it gets to 10 million people in 2066; there will be a requirement for a third airport," he said. "The greatest job centre growth in the state of Western Australia in the last five years; it's not the Kimberley's, it's not the Pilbara, it's not the Perth CBD, it's Perth's airport and precinct." Mr Salt's unique skill is to take the latest data and the transfer this into a highly entertaining, informative and relevant presentation on what the future environment will be for both businesses and individuals. "Tapware is now the new silverware ... You have the show kitchen and then you have the real kitchen behind in the butler's pantry. "Bunnings, Harvey Norman - they are the

businesses to have been in over the last decade as Australians transformed themselves." In terms of the changing culture of food, he says, when the Greek-Italians arrived here in the 1950s "we regarded their food as wog food, by the 1980s actually your food is better than our food." Mr Salt sees the future not just through numbers and trends, but by looking to the past. But the real trick, he says, is creating a narrative. "In order to share in the prosperity of modern Australia you need either a university degree or technical training. These are knowledge workers," he explained. "Which cities on the continent would offer most knowledge worker jobs? That would be Sydney and Melbourne. That is why Melbourne is the third largest growing city of its type, on the plant today. "We offer affordable housing and offer knowledge worker jobs. The greatest threat to

Australia I think is a break-down of social cohesion - the idea that we are evolving into a place of winners and losers. "That's not the Australia I want. I want an Australia where everyone believes they have a chance at prosperity. Which places on the Australia continent actually deliver that dream? Casey Cardinia, and a couple of other equivalents around the country," he said. According to data, Mr Salt says Australia is the 14th largest economy on earth: "We have the means to buy what we want. You can see that in the four bedroom; two bedroom house in place like Cranbourne and Cardinia," he said. He predicts in 10 years' time Australia will have jumped two places in the economy rankings, where "we are bigger than Russia" "This is a good place to be for another generation in fact," he added.

Golden celebration By Brendan Rees When Ray and Raylene Heathcote met at Burwood Teachers College as students, they knew they were in for the long haul. Today, the Berwick couple have spent 50 years together as husband and wife after marrying at St Bede's Church in Balwyn North in 1968. They celebrated their golden wedding anniversary on Friday 7 December with family and close friends. Ray is an avid cartoonist, having published his first cartoon in the Berwick News about Michael Tuck, a seven-time premiership-winning VFL player for Hawthorn Football Club in 1990. Since then, he has been cartooning for the newspaper editions of the Cranbourne, Berwick, and Pakenham-Officer Star News in 'Ray's Say'. "Dad says drawing cartoons was initially a way of helping children learn to read," his daughter Tyrell Heathcote said. "After he retired this continued in the form of cartooning workshops he was invited to run at many of the schools in the area." The couple, who have four children; Tyrell, Gina, Kellie and Ben, have had long and impressive careers in the education department. Raylene was a principal at Don Bosco Primary School in Narre Warren while Ray has been a principal and acting principal at a number of schools in the area, with his longest stint with Hallam Valley Primary School in the '90s. Ray then became a district liaison principal while Raylene shifted to an English and literature curriculum consulting role for the Catholic Education Office. Tyrell, who contacted Star News to surprise her parents by publishing this story, recalled

Emergency crews at the scene of the crash.

Woman airlifted to hospital By Brendan Rees A woman in her forties was airlifted to hospital, when a car collided with a truck in Cardinia on Friday 7 December. Police and emergency services were called to the collision on Ballarto Road about 1.50pm. A CFA media spokesperson said firefighters from Clyde CFA extricated a woman who had been trapped by the feet in a ute. The woman was flown by air ambulance to The Alfred in a stable condition with soft tissue injuries and lacerations. The male truck driver was treated by paramedics at the scene. The exact cause of the collision will be investigated.

Ray and Raylene Heathcote celebrate 50 years of marriage. there was no family holiday or even a trip to the supermarket "without bumping into a past student for a hello and a chat, making this a welcome way to share their anniversary news with their many past students and Ray's Say fans." Ray is the current Berwick RSL's welfare officer and past president from 2012-2015. He was also president of the Victorian Principals Federation in the '90s. Raylene was a volunteer for St Michael's after school First Communion classes.

To the the senseless people who use Camms Road as a speed track.

Thumbs down To Casey Council. Our back fence backs onto their land and I have just learned that they don't have to pay their share of replacing the fence which is going to cost us over $2000. Apparently unless there is a building on the land they don't have to pay. I'm furious!

Thumbs down To Casey Council who need to trim their trees in the Berwick Springs Estate as I keep having to duck under them when walking on the footpaths.

Thumbs down To the traffic lights at William Thwaites and Thompson's Road. Surely the green needs to lay longer than 10 seconds?

Thumbs down To roadworks. Finish the roadworks on one road before you start the next one in the same area. Pound Road and Tucker's Road still closed and Paterson Road and Thompson Road still having roadworks but on the weekend let's dig up Clyde Fiveways Road and ask people to take an alternative route.

Thumbs down To opening up Glasscocks Road between South Gippsland Highway and Narre/Cranbourne Road. I live in a lively quiet alcove now. It will be just like Thompsons Road when they open it. Talk about devaluing my property.

Thumbs up To Casey Council for the great work they do. Love the beautiful gardens we have in Berwick.

Thumbs down To the traffic lights in the morning on Fairbairn Road. Take way too long in between red and green lights and in the afternoon at 3.30pm cars can be packed up to Vale Park Crescent.

Thumbs down To Evan Road and only certain spots you can turn right on! Not to mention more and more and more housing estates less and less jobs for people? Smart Casey, how do you expect our roads to cater for this? Aw yeah you don't... never mind we will all have to spend more on fuel and diesel as we will all be stuck in traffic longer clap clap handy cap.

RAY’S SAY

On 3 December, a story was shared on the Berwick Star News Facebook page about Casey Council identifying a minor miscalculation of council rates for 2018/19. Here is how some readers reacted online: Tanya Narelle: Lol Cardinia did the same thing I think, not much to individuals but a bit to the councils. Lindsey Davis: It will cost you more to fix the error, why bother? Lynette White: Wow 22 cents. Cassidy Grace: 22 cents per property? Just make next years 22 cents cheaper across the board and save the money fixing it now. Michele Tobin: Lisa Summers, Christine Mich and Daniel Summers - better start planning what to spend your 22 cents on. Marianne Macumber: Just keep my 22 cents. It will cost more in wages and paperwork and or electricity to do it. Tracie Battye: Graeme Battye you should be able to retire soon, we should be getting a refund from the council. Sue Baldizoni: How much is it going to cost to 'rectify' rates by 22 cents to each rate payer ? Seems ludicrous to me... Leong Ng: Just paid my rates lately and yes... It was adjusted by a few miserable cents. Lol. cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

CCTV eye on thief By Brendan Rees

By Brendan Rees

A person tries a car door handle.

A number of cars were hit in the car break-ins.

Casey Council will call on the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) to knock back a planning application for new residential housing in Cranbourne North. Schutz Consulting Pty Ltd, a boutique planning firm, lodged plans with Casey Council in June this year proposing to subdivide a site on Alisma Boulevard into 138 residential house lots and provide for a population between 450500 people. The matter will go before VCAT after Schutz Consulting Pty Ltd lodged an appeal against Casey Council's "failure to determine the application within the prescribed time." Casey Council manager of statutory planning and building services Duncan Turner the site fell under the Cranbourne North Precinct Structure Plan which identified the land as an active open space/playing fields. "Council has been negotiating for some time with the developer to secure the land for this purpose," Mr Turner said. "Council cannot approve a planning application seeking subdivision of this land into residential lots as it is contrary to the approved structure plan. "The developer has chosen to pursue a course of legal review in an attempt to challenge their obligation under the approved structure plan. Council will continue to act in the best interests of the community in pursing assets for our growing population." At their 4 December meeting, Casey councillors voted unanimously to advise the permit applicant and VCAT that given the lack of active public open space facilities in the area as intended by the Cranbourne North Stage 2 Precinct Structure Plan, "a permit for further housing should not be issued." Schutz Consulting declined to comment. 12404917-RA47-18

Would-be thieves have been caught on camera prowling the streets in Clyde North while trying door handles of parked cars during the early hours of Tuesday 4 December. The footage captured from a resident's home in Selandra Boulevard showed one the thieves getting into his wife's car, a Toyota, which had been accidentally left unlocked. "They saw it was unlocked and went through the glove box, looked in the back seat; nothing standing out so they just went onto the next one," said Pete, who asked not to reveal his surname. He said they also tried the door handle of his locked Commodore that was parked in the driveway. "It was one of those things, they didn't get anything so it just p***** me off because you know what's it's like you work hard for your money." "They weren't smashing windows or anything," he added. Pete said it appeared two young people wearing hoodies tried the door handles of at least 10 cars at 3.55am. "If they were locked, they just moved onto the next one." He said there were also two cars seen driving down the street while two people were on foot "going up and down the street." The footage was shared on Facebook's Casey Crime Page in the hope that anyone with information may be able to assist police. According to data from the Crime Statistics Agency, there were 73 incidents reported of theft from motor vehicle in Clyde North during the year ending in June. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Pain at bowser could ease By Brendan Rees Petrol price cycles have frustrated motorists as they feel the squeeze on household incomes but a chief economist says the average unleaded prices were down. In the past week, the average unleaded fuel price for Melbourne was down by 4.4 cents to 125.7c a litre, according to CommSec's Craig James. "Discounting cycles may be shifting but there is still good news for motorists - at least for now," a weekly insights note from Mr James issued on 3 December stated. It added: "Cheaper prices are still possible in the next fortnight. Prices near $1.10 a litre can't be ruled out for the biggest petrol discounters,"

According to the Australian Institute of Petroleum, the national average Australian price of unleaded petrol fell by 3.8 cents to 134.1 cents a litre. However, Petrolspy.com showed Caltex South Gippsland Highway in Cranbourne had unleaded fuel at 149.9c a litre on Friday 7 December, while 7-Eleven on Evans Road in Cranbourne West was 143.9c and Woolworths Caltex on Thompsons Road at 149.9c a litre on Friday 7 December. The cheapest prices were APCO DandenongHastings Road in Cranbourne at 118.9c, and United at the corner of Clarendon Street and High Street in Cranbourne at 119.9c a litre. United in Dandenong Hastings Highway in Lynbrook was 120.9c a litre.

Cranbourne resident Aaron Grant said he just "don't see the fairness" in the petrol hikes. "We don't have a choice but to pay the price," he said. Mr Grant, 24, said he paid up to $105 on average to fill his Holden SV6 for unleaded that was 1.50c a litre. "Someone like myself; when you're paying a mortgage as well as insurance costs, and petrol costs, it does not help when the petrol goes up because you're paying $20 to $30 more a week." ACCC Commissioner Mick Keogh said while the retailers' use of price cycles to maximise profits was not illegal it "really infuriates drivers as they can see no reason for them to exist." "There's a common perception that all retailers put their prices up or down at exactly the

same time, but our research shows this isn't the case," he said. RACV vehicle engineering manager Michael Case said motorists were advised to "top up" rather than filing up when prices were high. "RACV provides fuel price information for motorists to find the cheapest prices in their area or along their journey. As a general guide, regular searches for the cheapest fuel can save motorists hundreds of dollars a year," he said. He added fuel prices were influenced by underlying changes in world oil prices. The RACV website listed Melbourne's average unleaded fuel price on Friday 7 December as 142.1c a litre.

Police are appealing to anyone with information of this car.

Police have released CCTV as they continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding a hit-run collision at Lyndhurst on Saturday 1 December. Dandenong Crime Investigation Unit detectives understand two vehicles were driving north towards Dandenong along Glasscocks Road when the drivers became involved in an argument about 6pm. The driver of a Volkswagen sedan and his passenger exited their vehicle and approached the second vehicle, believed to be a black SUV. The 34-year-old driver of the Volkswagen sedan was struck by the second vehicle and taken to hospital with serious injuries. He remains in a critical condition in hospital. The black SUV left the scene and is yet to be located. Along with the CCTV of a vehicle police wish to identify, detectives have also released a facial composite image of a man who may be able to assist with their enquiries. The male driver is perceived to be of Pacific Islander appearance and was wearing a large straw hat. Investigators are appealing for any witnesses who saw the collision or any driver who may have dash cam footage to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or they can file a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic. com.au

FOCUS ON … CHRISTMAS IN CRANBOURNE

Dreaming of a green one Make your own gift wrapping and decorations this Christmas.

12403315-SN50-18

Christmas can be a time of waste and excess. However, there are ways to reduce your green footstep over the festive season. The City of Casey's envionmental team has put together some great tips to reduce consumption and waste this December. Here’s some ideas to help you enjoy a greener Christmas this year.

Plan for left overs – expect you will have tasty treats for the next day and don’t buy extras. Use real crockery, cutlery and glassware instead of single use plastic ones. This will save on room in your bin and is a much nicer dining experience.

Christmas Shopping Bring your own bags – this not only applies to your groceries, but all shopping throughout the Christmas period. Shop at Op Shops or buy second hand from eBay and GumTree – this could include popular children’s gift including trampolines, swing sets and bikes. Consider local products and markets and ‘bake, make and create’ as an alternative to shopping. This could include planting some seeds in advance to give a living pot or baking some sweet treats. Try out the four-gift rule for children – ‘something they want, something they need, something to wear, something to read’.

Wrapping and decorating Buy experiences that don’t need wrapping and create memories! Use reusable gift bags and boxes. Tea towels and ribbon or reusable Christmas fabric can make for colourful wrapping and are a great alternative.

Cooking Plan your festive meals – buy only what you need and can consume. Buy food in season and local produce. Avoid food waste by covering food (eg. those cheese and dip platters) and put your left overs in the fridge as early as possible.

Sort your waste and recycling Be prepared to sort out your waste and get it in the right bin. Don’t forget bin night; bins will be collected as normal over the festive period including public holidays. Plastic moulding from around children’s toys can go in the recycling as can paper wrapping paper. Foil wrapping paper cannot be recycled in your blue bins. Compost your fruit and vegetable scraps. Scrunch and collect used foil into a cricket ball size before placing in your blue recycling bin (a little bit of food residue is ok).

UNDERPRIVILEGED children will share the excitement of unwrapping a gift on Christmas morning thanks to the generosity of one Timbertop youngster. When Caedlin Collins recently turned eight she knew just what she wanted to do with the presents she received - donate them to the Parklea Christmas Gift Drive. Caedlin saw a sign advertising the gift drive at Cardinia Life in Officer and didn’t hesitate suggesting to her mum, Alison, that she donate some of her presents so they could be regifted this Christmas. “I donated my gifts because I thought is wasn’t fair that lots of homeless people don’t get presents,“ Caedlin explained. “It makes me feel good.“ And her message for those children who will benefit from her generosity? “I hope you like the present and I hope you play with it,“ she said, with a huge smile. Parklea Sales and Marketing Manager Jarod Mills said this year donations would be shared between Windermere and the taskforce of community organisations putting together hampers in the wake of the closure of the 4C’s Foodbank. Donations to the Parklea Christmas Gift Drive can be made until 17 December at the Cardinia Shire Council Civic Centre, Timbermill Cafe, Montessori Beginnings in Officer, Arena Cafe, Cardinia Life and the Parklea office at Arena. ●

$1.3m funding win for hall Students at Hillcrest Christian College in Clyde North will benefit from a new multipurpose hall thanks to a Federal Government Grant. Member for Latrobe Jason Wood announced on Monday 10 December the Australian Government would provide more than $1.3 million towards the project at Hillcrest Christian College through the Capital Grants Program. "Students and teachers thrive when their schools have modern and up-to-date facilities - that's why the Federal Government is proud of the Capital Grants Program, which has ben-

efited thousands of schools across the nation," Mr Wood said. "The Government has committed $660 million until 2021, which provides funding for non-government schools to improve capital infrastructure. "These upgrades will help advance Hillcrest Christian College and ensure our classrooms have modern facilities. "I congratulate Hillcrest Christian College for their successful grant and look forward to seeing the impact these improvements will have in our community."

The Lynbrook School Community presented 50 washing baskets with food supplies to help families in need.

'Tis the time to be jolly Students from Lynbrook Primary School have spread the Christmas cheer by presenting food hampers to local charity Bk2Basics on Wednesday 5 December. Grade Four Teacher Rebekah Bogos said with the generous support of our Lynbrook School Community, they were able to fill 50 washing baskets with food supplies to help families in need. "Our Junior School Council connected with the Bk2Basics charity who works tirelessly in the community," she said. The presentation celebrated International

Volunteer Day, with Grade Four students also enjoying a talk from the team of volunteers at Bk2Basics. "Kelly, Kaidi and John were overwhelmed by the generosity of our children and their families," Ms Bogos said. "Along with other volunteers from local groups - Hampton Park Girl Guides, Hampton Park Library, City of Casey Traffic School, Labrador Rescue, Casey Netball and Softball Victoria and Australia our students left feeling motivated to make a difference in their community."

One too many calls By Brendan Rees The problem of motorists using their mobile phone while behind the wheel "is not going away," according to police. Alarming new figures showed officers issued 1157 for drivers using their phone in the years 2016 and 2017 in Casey. Cranbourne Highway Patrol Sergeant Pat McGavigan said too often police saw drivers stopping at traffic lights where the "first thing they do is pick up their mobile." "It is a contributor to road trauma and that cost cannot be put into a price," he said. "The problem is not going away." "A good way for motorists not to donate to road trauma is to concentrate." The fine for using a mobile phone is $484 and four demerit points.

Victoria Police road policing operations Superintendent John Fitzpatrick said driver distraction was one of the five leading causes of death on the roads. "It's very concerning to still be catching people running the risk of killing or seriously injuring themselves or another person for the sake of a phone call or text that can wait till later," he said. "Taking your eyes off the road for just two seconds when driving at only 50km/h means you are travelling effectively blind for 27 metres. "It's a no-brainer, when you're behind the wheel, your eyes should be on the road. Our message is simple - switch off your phone before you switch on the engine." TAC research has found almost half of all Victorians under the age of 30 have used their

phone when driving, while the demographic also see the habit as more socially acceptable than pushing into a queue. "Looking at and using a mobile phone while driving is extremely dangerous, because it means we are taking our eyes and focus off the road," TAC spokesperson Nic McGay said. Operation Roadwise starts on Friday 1 December and continues through to 6 January, 2019. "This operation is designed to let everyone celebrate the festive season and see 2019 arrive," Sgt McGavigan said. "Victoria Police will deploy as many resources as possible targeting road safety including speed, impaired driving, occupant safety and driver distraction."

School’s fun run helps Students of Lynbrook's St Francis de Sales Primary School swapped their books for a sunrise fun run to help raise money for children with cerebral palsy. Together with members of the community, the students ran a lap of Banjo Patterson Park on Wednesday 5 December to raise more than $300 for the Cerebral Palsy Education Centre. Special guest retired soccer player Gulcan Koca of Melbourne Victory also joined in the fun. "The children did an outstanding job on the day," teacher Sandi Dinsdale said. Cerebral Palsy is condition marked by impaired muscle coordination (spastic paralysis) and/or other disabilities, typically caused by damage to the brain before or at birth. Ms Dinsdale said the equipment needed for children with cerebral palsy to live comfortably was incredibly expensive, "so St Francis De Sales children wanted to help by setting up a fun run, to raise money." Nissan and Jeep kindly sponsored the event.

Santa comes to town in a fire truck Santa traded his slade for a fire truck when he visited more than 100 children in Lyndhurst on Saturday 8 December. Firefighters from the Hampton Park fire brigade took a day out of their busy schedule to chauffer Santa to Great Beginnings childcare centre. Families flocked to Livvi's Place to greet Santa who he handed our presents to the children - which were books supplied by Great Beginnings. "Quite often we get requests to go and take the truck and get one of our brigade members to dress up as Santa," firefighter Hellie Aitken said. "The kids love it, they absolutely love it."

Power signing for Eagles By Nick Creely Big Piva has landed at Power Reserve. Piva Wright, the former Richmond rookie and Dandenong Stingray has put pen to paper at the Doveton Eagles in Southern Football League Division 2, and it's sure to keep plenty of defenders up at night throughout 2019. More recently, Wright, 25, plied his trade with Noble Park in the powerful Eastern Football League, topping the goal kicking for the Bulls with 38 majors in a terrific season in Division 1 for the power forward. Doveton Eagles president Shane McGrath said that the club was thrilled to welcome in someone with a quality character, and expects the high profile recruit to settle in well. "We're thrilled, he's a local guy who works at the local primary school, so it's been a really community focus for us - he ticks a lot of boxes, that's for sure," he said. Despite Noble Park's desperation to hold on to the power forward, McGrath said that Wright was keen to play with some mates. "It all happened really quickly - he's got some friends around the club, so that always helps when you get to play with mates," he said. The Eagles have managed to lure big names such as Nick Battle, Ryan Hendy, Darren Sheen and Russell Robertson to the club, and McGrath said it points to the culture and brand of footy that's been established at the club. The club is desperate to work its way

up to Division 1, and won't take a backwards step. But, after losing Sheen to Kooweerup after a brief stint at the club, the search was on for another power forward with the capability to kick big bags of goals. "We've worked really hard to be attractive to players wanting to come in, and that's (signing Wright) justification, i guess," he said. "As a club, we've got high ambitions - we want to improve our standards, and Piva brings it in that regard, so we're thrilled." The Eagles - who were runners-up in Div 2 this season - have also announced Scott Irvine, a wingman who has played with Kilsyth and Seville, highly rated tall forward Jye Siegersma, who also comes across from Kilsyth, as well as dynamic half-back Andrew Ray from Narre Warren, and will be gearing up for yet another assault at a premiership. "We've added some other quality players, and we're all about bringing in quality people too," he said. "Andy Ray has Southern experience and dominated Div 1 a few years ago, and Jye and Scott are great footballers who have put work and personal life before footy the last few years, and they are now more settle personally, so are looking to change their focus to footy a bit more." The Eagles are also keen to start an Under 19s side for 2019. If anyone is interested, contact Shane McGrath on 0466 459 360.

Flanigan returns to Shepley By Nick Creely

Cricket legend Sir Ian Botham had the audience at the Gippsland Carnival launch night on the edge of their seats. Pictures: COURTESY OF GREYHOUND RACING VICTORIA

Gippsland Carnival launches in style Last Thursday’s launch of the third TRFM Gippsland Carnival, Australia’s biggest regional racing series, was a top-class night of entertainment with sporting royalty in attendance at Logan Park in Warragul. Former England cricket captain Sir Ian Botham captivated the crowd with stories of his cricketing career and the people he met along the way. He also spoke of his admirable charity work through Beefy’s Charity Foundation, in which he hosts fundraising events to support cancer research and treatment for youth with serious health conditions. In addition to Sir Ian Botham, former AFL footballer and greyhound racing ambassador, Brent Harvey, spoke of the secrets behind his longevity in AFL and how he has fallen in love with greyhound racing since coming on board with GRV. cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

Other highlights included RSN’s James Van de Maat discussing his love of greyhound racing and the art of a race call, stand-up comedian Marty Fields providing laughs throughout the evening, and a spectacular fireworks display to cap off the event. “It was a great night at Warragul last night and a wonderful feeling to have so many passionate supporters of greyhound racing in the one room,” said GRV chairman, Bernie Carolan. “To have people of the calibre of Sir Ian Botham and Brent Harvey supporting our sport really shows the direction we are heading and I’m looking forward to a fantastic Gippsland Carnival.” The Gippsland Carnival is the biggest regional racing series in Australia and consists of Country Cups in Sale (26 December), War-

ragul (12 January), Traralgon (26 January), and Cranbourne (9 February); and there were representatives from each of these clubs at the event to celebrate the launch of this exciting series which highlights greyhound racing in the Gippsland area. And all the action kicks off with the $75,000 GOLD FM Sale Cup on Boxing Day. The Sale Cup also promises to be a big event with star Melbourne ruckman, Max Gawn watching the races from the Trackside Party Paddock and spinning the wheel for one lucky person to get a chance to win $10,000 or a car. The following cups in Warragul, Traralgon and Cranbourne also have lucrative purses of $47,000 and will be attended by former Collingwood champion and 2011 Brownlow medallist, Dane Swan.

Experienced football administrator Darren Flanigan is back at the Dandenong Stingrays in his second stint as region talent manager at the TAC Cup club. The reigning premiers have appointed the 56-year-old former AFL ruckman back to Shepley Oval, replacing Mark Wheeler, who has joined the Sandringham Dragons. Flanigan played 130 games with Geelong from 1981 to 1991, before spending a season with St Kilda in 1992, adding a further eight games to his tally. Most recently, Flanigan had been doing some fine work as AFL Victoria's female football talent manager, where he oversaw the development and pathways of talented female footballers in the state, earning him high praise in the industry, as well as work with AFL International for the China Athlete Academy, where he served as operations manager. He has also served as a specialist coach with both Collingwood and Melbourne, where he has helped Flanigan's first stint as region manager of the Stingrays began in 2001 and ended 10 years later, replaced by Wheeler, who delivered the first ever TAC Cup premiership for the region in 2018. He will now work closely with new coach Nick Cox this pre-season in what looms as a new era for the club with the departure of premiership coach Craig Black, who has joined Collingwood as a development coach, and has already begun pre-season training with his players. The Stingrays have also announced highly regarded Rye senior coach Josh Moore as an assistant coach for 2019. Stingrays' premiership assistant Josh Bourke, a highly touted footy head and coaching prospect, has also departed, taking on the senior coaching role at Sandringham Dragons, alongside Wheeler once again.

VICTORIAN PREMIER CRICKET ROUND 8 (DAY ONE) The challenge is set for Dandenong after an epic century to Melbourne skipper Matthew Brown on Saturday has presented the Panthers with a tough chase next week. In a surprising decision, the Panthers sent the Demons in to bat at the Albert Ground in the, and after a solid start to the home side, the decision to bowl seemed the right call after a double strike had the reigning premiers in a strong position. Blake Thomson (38) and Brown absorbed plenty of pressure to put together a 43 run partnership, and from there, batting just got easier for the Dees. Despite some fine bowling by James Nanopoulos (3/68), Brown began to find his flow, taking apart the visitors’ attack with a class display of batting. With Jack Harper (49), Brad Melville (21) and Sean Sturrock (21) batting around the skipper, the Dees racked up the runs - particularly late in the day - to finish on an imposing 7/326 off 96 overs at stumps on day one. Brown walked off the ground with a 157 brilliant runs next to his name, a knock that was compiled over 267 balls, and included 16 fours and three sixes. The opening partnership of Tom Donnell and Brett Forsyth will clearly be the key for the Panthers when play resumes next Saturday, with the middle order of Lincoln Edwards, Ed Newman and Cam Forsyth also needing a lift if the visitors are to pull off the tricky chase. In the seconds, meanwhile, the returning Peter Cassidy (99) fell narrowly short of a brilliant century in his return game as the Panthers racked up 9/340. Cassidy - who will almost certainly force his way back into the first XI next round after

Casey-South Melbourne, meanwhile, is staring down the barrel of an upset loss to Kingston Hawthorn after a tough day at the office at Walter Galt Reserve on Saturday. The Swans were sent in, and the in-form side slipped to 4/18, with skipper Luke Wells back in the sheds early after entering the game off the back of back-to-back centuries. With the Hawks up and about with the ball, Michael Wallace and Lachie Sperling (39) managed to spend some time at the crease and knock around 36-runs, but the home side managed to snare the pair and the dangerous Jordan Wyatt to leave the visitors 7/92. Showing plenty of guts and determination, teenage debutant Ashvin Adihetty (44) – normally known as a bowler – showed how it was done, working hard with a more restrained Dylan Hadfield (18) to calmly bring the first innings total to a more competitive level. Adihetty, who is on debut replacing spearhead Nathan Lambden, is a left-arm spinner with an abundance of talent, did a similar job with the bat in the seconds earlier in the season, hitting a 134-ball 65 after coming in 6/151, and is certainly a player to keep an eye on. The Swans were eventually bowled out for 171 in the 62nd over, and without Lambden taking the new pill, needed a strong start with the ball to have any chance. Impressive recruit Josh Dowling (1/14) snared dangerous opener Ramneet Dhindsa (9) early, but the home side steadied nicely to finish 2/74 at stumps, with Lachie Sperling (1/5) picking up Shorye Chopra (19) shortly before the close of play. But the Hawks will undoubtedly be favourites when play resumes on Saturday, with the Swans needing early wickets to stand a chance of picking up the points in what looms as an extremely important weekend in the context of their season. However, what does work in the Swans’ favour is the fact that the Hawks have scored the least runs in the competition, and have badly struggled to find any momentum with the bat this season, as shown by their winless record. In the seconds, however, the Swans enjoyed a more fruitful weekend of cricket, picking up a draw against the Hawks after compiling a monster day one score in the Saturday/Sunday clash. The Swans reached an incredible 5/415 off 96 overs, with Joel Mitchell starring with his first century at the club with a brutal 135, while Chris Benedek (93) scored his second ninety for the season; Ryan Eaton (60) found more runs, while opening pair Blair Clymo (43) and Kyle Van Raay (35) got them off to a strong start.

Picture: ROB CAREW In reply, the Hawks reached 6/304 at stumps, with Brayden Lambden (2/43) the pick of the bowlers. MPCA - PROVINCIAL ROUND 7 (DAY ONE) In the battle of the bottom placed teams, Pearcedale and Flinders are engaged in a fascinating battle, with ball trumping bat on day one. The Panthers struggled to 86 off 61.3 overs after batting first, with Dwayne Field (3/57) and Matthew Burns (7/25) incredibly bowling the entire innings to completely strangle the home side. Burns’ 30.3 overs featured 18 maidens in an incredible bowling effort from the champion Shark. At stumps, the Sharks are 4/16 off 18 overs, with Kaine Smith (2/1) and Sam Frawley (2/12) doing plenty of early damage. In other games, Langwarrin (144) and Mornington (1/12) are in a close battle, Peninsula OB (6/77) should get the job done against Sorrento (89), and Baxter (4/49) is in a comfortable position against Mt Eliza (84). VICTORIAN SUB-DISTRICT - NORTH/EAST ROUND 7 (DAY ONE) In his 50’s, Endeavour Hills champion Richard Saniga has still got it. The veteran produced as incredible performance against Box Hill at Syd Pargeter on Saturday, snaring 7/44 off 26 overs. Saniga tore the Hawks’ top order apart; before late partnerships saw the visitors reach 185 in 62.3 overs. The Eagles are in a spot of bother at stumps, scrapping through to 5/31 off 23 overs at stumps. And Noble Park (106) has already lost on first-innings to Plenty Valley (5/113), with the Parkers looking to now avoid outright next week. WOMEN’S PREMIER CRICKET TWENTY20 - ROUND 2 Dandenong picked up a barnstorming win at Shepley Oval against Prahran on Sunday, with the Panthers keeping their strong start to the Twenty20 season going. The True Blues were kept to a lowly 8/58 after being sent in to bat, with Courtney Neale (3/11) absolutely starring. The Panthers wasted little time in knocking over the runs, taking the points in just over half an hour, and with eight wickets still left in the shed. Alanah Mison (19 not out) and Kim Garth (19 not out) knocked the runs over with ease. cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

A challenging double header for Cranbourne A bumper weekend of bowls with Round 9 played on Saturday and Round 10 played on Sunday was a big ask for Cranbourne's bowlers, but the weather was kind and players responded well. The top side had two away games and, despite some great form by skip Sue Hudson and her team, Cranbourne came up short on both occasions. The second side had a narrow loss on Saturday but a good comeback win the next day. The third side fared better with two big wins on both days. The fourth side had a bye the first day but came out of the blocks with a huge win on Sunday with Skip Sofio Raiti continuing his great form. The ladies team played well but could not get over the line and has now slipped down the ladder after enjoying a week at the top. Division 2 skip Sue Hudson and her team of Joe Byrne, Lynne Wood, and Fritz Helle continued their recent great form with two huge wins on both days, winning by 11 shots at Carrum and 17 shots against Mulgrave Country Club the next day. However, the remaining rinks struggled and resulted in a 13-shot loss on Saturday against Carrum and a two-shot loss to Mulgrave Country Club on Sunday. Saturday: Cranbourne 70 (4 points) lost to Carrum 83. Sunday: Cranbourne 75 (2 points) lost to Mulgrave Country Club 77. Division 3 skip Chris Griffiths and his team of Vic Butera, John Stanley and Noel Hardy had a good 19-shot win on Saturday while skip Steve Hickson and his team of Stan Myers, Bill Bradbury and Roger Roscoe won by 10 shots on Sunday, which contributed to the 11-shot win against Keysborough on the day. Saturday: Cranbourne 70 (2 points) lost to Dandy Club 73. cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

Sunday: Cranbourne 83 (16 points) defeated Keysborough 72. A great week end was enjoyed by the third side with two great wins in Division 5. Skip Harry Van Soest enjoyed his weekend with some fine bowls put down with great support on both days by a combination of players including Club Legend Ray Boskell who was also in great form on both days, plus Karen Hickson, David Brown and Barry Graham. Saturday: Cranbourne 121 (18 points) defeated Narre Warren 46. Sunday: Cranbourne 89 (16 points) defeated Edithvale 68. Division 7 skip Sofio Raiti and his team of Frank Coulter, Helen Witherden and Coral McKenna enjoyed a day off on Saturday and came out of the blocks on Sunday with another huge win by 45 shots. This is the second time in a number of weeks that Sofio has won by a huge margin and selectors must be looking at him with a great deal of interest after his recent record winning form for the club. Saturday: Bye. Sunday: Cranbourne 118 (17 points) defeated Dandy Club 44. A flat performance over the weekend was a little under par for the six-a-side team. Saturday: Cranbourne 44 (0 points) lost to Willow Lodge 52 Sunday: Cranbourne 21 (0 points) lost to Churchill Waverley 55 The Division 1 ladies played well on the day, sticking to their game-plan but came up short on all rinks by 15 shots against a very good Edithvale side on the day. Down 14 shots at the lunch break, the Cranbourne ladies matched it with Edithvale later in the day but just could not pick up enough shots to win on the day. Skip Yvonne Van der Wees and her crew went
