A station wagon collided with a tree and light pole on a Burwood Highway centre median after its driver lost control, police said.

Officers are appealing for witnesses, CCTV and dash cam footage following the single-car crash in Upper Ferntree Gully about 9.40pm on Friday 24 May. They said the driver was behind the wheel of a silver Holden station wagon travelling east.

Following the crash, the vehicle came to rest in the west-bound lanes near the intersection with Dawson Street.

Police said the vehicle suffered extensive damage and the driver was taken to hospital with injuries.

An Ambulance Victoria spokesman confirmed paramedics treated a man aged in his twenties at the scene for minor injuries.

Silvan Primary School students helped to make teddies for orphans in Syria.

The 23 students and their teachers worked with local Aussies Knitting for War Affected Kids (AKWAK) member Jenny O'Brien to fill the colourful, hand-knitted bear skins with stuffing.

They'll be sent, along with knitted clothing and blankets, directly into Syrian orphanages and Displaced Persons' Camps.

Each child named their bear and attached a card with that name, the knitter's name and the student's name, plus a photo of the student with the bear.

"We had such a fun afternoon," Ms O'Brien said.

"I showed the kids pictures of the cold, wet conditions in the Syrian camps, and told them a little bit about the difficult conditions in which these families live.

"The kids were so pleased to be able to do their bit to help these children.

"They took to the stuffing like ducks to water, and several of them asked could they learn to knit.

"I'll be starting a knitting group at the school next term.

"I suspect the kids want to make bears for themselves, as well as for the Syrian children!"

School principal Damian Tirchett said the project was a real eye-opener for his students, to learn about the terrible conditions that children were exposed to as a result of war in their country.

"We have all enjoyed contributing in an effort to help others less fortunate than us," he said.

The bears are based on the trauma teddy pattern distributed by the Red Cross, and are very simple to knit.

Many people all over Australia are knitting bears as well as clothing and blankets to help AKWAK fill a shipping container each year, packed in the Yarra Ranges each August and

Preschoolers packed Belgrave Library to listen to a story about alpacas playing maracas.

The Wednesday 22 May event was part of National Simultaneous Storytime, which children at libraries, childcare centres, schools, and preschools around the country take part in at the same time.

They all read the same book, which this year was Alpacas with Maracas by Matt Cosgrove.

Yarra Ranges Councillor Len Cox helped out as a guest reader at Belgrave.

"It is lovely for me to be here today to meet all of you," he told the children.

"I didn't know what a maraca was until this morning. I really didn't."

Belgrave's Youth Services Librarian Chris Nugent hosted the storytime session, which also included song, dance and more books.

Children sang 'alpacas with maracas' to the tune of Bananas in Pyjamas, adapted a few other songs to include alpacas and llamas, and read other alpaca and llama-related books.

Preschoolers listen intently to Alpacas with Maracas.

Club wants more pokies

By Casey Neill Monbulk Bowling Club says that adding 10 new poker machines will help to create a better venue for the community.

The not-for-profit organisation has applied to the Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation (VCGLR) to increase its electronic gaming machines (EGMs) from 30 to 40.

There are 442 pokies in the Yarra Ranges at nine venues, 38 per cent of the region's cap.

The Victorian Local Governance Association (VLGA) hosted two information sessions about the application at the Monbulk Living and Learning Centre on Wednesday 22 May, after approaching the Yarra Ranges Council and offering to facilitate the discussions.

The Mail attended the 2pm session alongside about 20 people.

Rose O'Leary from the VCGLR chaired the event, which she said was designed to empower the community to have their say on the proposal.

She's funded by the Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation, which is in turn funded by the Community Support Fund (CSF), which receives funding from EGM revenue.

Ms O'Leary brought with her Carmel, a pokies reform advocate who lost a sister to suicide following gambling addiction.

"Pokies are often seen as fun and entertaining," Carmel said.

"Like everything in life, there's always a dif-

ferent side."

She said playing the pokies often started as a social thing, and people who became addicted kept their struggles secret because of shame.

"They don't want to lose their family, but they don't want to lose the pokies," she said.

"It becomes a thirst that you can't quench.

"These machines are addictive."

But Monbulk Bowling Club (MBC) general manager Denise Rutzou likened people playing pokies at her venue to people choosing to spend $50 on dinner and a movie.

"They should be allowed to do that," she said.

"It's a form of entertainment."

She said that adding the extra machines would help to fund a $1.7 million renovation, and would give players more choice.

"We aim to be competitive with the venues off the mountain," she said.

But Ms Rutzou said MBC was not just a pokies venue, but an important part of the community.

It formed in 1965 to provide a venue for bowlers.

"Bowling remains as the focus," she said.

Today it's also a place for locals to meet, eat and relax with friends and family, and employs 21 people.

Ms Rutzou said the venue regularly provided free entertainment for the community and supported community groups with sponsor-

ships and donations.

"Over the most recent three-year period the club has donated a total of $327,281 in cash and kind contributions to the community," she said.

"With 10 more machines it will allow the club to enhance its facilities and contribute further to its community benefits."

She said participation in bowls was declining so the club wanted to attract more people through other means, and upgrading the venue was a key part of this.

She said the additional pokies would lock in the revenue needed to make the upgrade happen.

Ms Rutzou said problem gambling was a serious issue.

"The staffing and philosophy of a venue is very important," she said.

She said MBC displayed gamblers help posters, had no ATM on-site, had clocks on all machines, qualified staff monitored the gaming floor to proactively identify problems, and a venue support worker attended regularly.

"We don't want to encourage problem gamblers at all," she said.

"We want people to use and enjoy the whole venue."

Ms Rutzou said Census statistics showed the population of Monbulk and surrounds did not fit the problem gambling profile, and that studies showed problem gamblers preferred larger or online venues for anonymity.

She said smaller venues with friendly interaction between staff and gamblers were not considered high-risk for problem gamblers.

A Monbulk bowler spoke in favour of the application, and explained that social bowls were running at the time so many others couldn't make it.

A woman who identified herself as being from Kallista Community House told the meeting that people in the community were struggling and that she was shocked at how much money was being spent on gambling in the hills - rather than on other goods and services in the community.

"It is a loss for the whole community," she said.

A man who introduced himself as the new Open Door Community Church minister said: "We don't need any more money going to make family situations any harder."

At its Tuesday 14 May meeting, Yarra Ranges Council moved to start work on a social and economic impact assessment (SEIA) to "determine either the net benefit or net detriment of the application to the local community".

The council has commissioned an initial SEIA that will examine the Monbulk community's characteristics and inform a full SEIA, due for endorsement at the 11 June council meeting.

Community feedback will also inform the council's SEIA. The full MBC application can be viewed on the VCGLR website.

Cuppas are building up the community

By Casey Neill Cops and customers came together for a cuppa at the Hairy Dog. The Gembrook cafe hosted the town’s first Coffee with a Cop event on Tuesday 21 May. Helen Moir owns the Hairy Dog with husband Craig and heard about the initiative from barista Kelly.

“It’s a good way for people and police to come together on neutral ground,” she said.

“People might feel more relaxed."

Victoria Police covered the coffees during the hour-long event in a bid to bolster relationships between cops and the community.

Senior Sergeant Nathan Prowd said Coffee with a Cop gave his officers the opportunity to hear community concerns and how they could be addressed.

One mum explained to an officer that she was trying to teach her toddler son about uniforms.

Debbie from Cockatoo heard about the event and brought her young granddaughter Winter along.

“It’s a bit different to going to the park,” she said.

“She loves babyccinos.”

Neighbourhood Watch Cardinia secretary David Farrelly said NHW used to organise the Coffee with a Cop events.

Winter meets Acting Senior Sergeant David Sweeney.

A couple of years ago the Department of Justice decided with the police to run the initiative themselves.

Mr Farrelly said sharing a cuppa gave police

a chance to interact with people they wouldn’t normally see.

“And it’s a great informal way for people to understand police are human - everyday peo-

ple doing a job as best they can,” he said.

“Being able to reach out to all parts of the Cardinia community is vital.

“Not all these people have social media.

“If you don’t do these kinds of things you lose connections into the future as well.”

Lakeside College Year 10 student Hannah Karnakowski attended as part of her two-year traineeship with Victoria Police.

She’ll earn a certificate three in business management through the Skillinvest placement that has her spending each Tuesday at Pakenham Police Station.

She’s wanted to become a police officer since she was five years old Hannah said Coffee with a Cop was a great idea and was enjoying the morning.

“I learn a lot in how to communicate,” she said.

“I love how they get to engage with the community and not just bad people all the time.”

Community engagement co-ordinator Senior Constable Riki-Lee White said people often felt like their issues weren’t big enough to bring to a police station, so Coffee with a Cop gave them a chance to bring them up in a casual setting.

“It’s a positive thing for police as well, to feel more informed and interact with all different age groups and demographics,” she said.

Abuse of older residents World Elder Abuse Awareness Day on 15 June draws much-needed attention to the abuse of older people around the world, including Australia.

This abuse is often by someone older people know and trust, and is usually a close family member.

The World Health Organisation estimates that as many as one in six older people have experienced abuse.

Despite this alarming figure, the lack of awareness and ageist attitudes in our community remain a challenge and present significant barriers to preventing and intervening on this serious issue.

The most common forms of abuse to older people are psychological and financial.

Psychological abuse may include threats to withdraw access to grandchildren or to place the older person in aged care.

Financial abuse can range from misusing

Legal

matters Anita Koochew Eastern Community Legal Centre an older person's bank account, to transferring property owned by the older person to another person without the older person's consent, to creating huge debts in the name of the older person and causing them to become homeless.

Under the plan, Eastern Health and Eastern Community Legal Centre (ECLC) will implement a Health Justice Partnership, which involves intervening early and skilled lawyers and financial counsellors working alongside healthcare teams to provide a complete and quick response to older people suffering abuse.

ECLC will also work with Healesville Indigenous Community Services Association and other agencies and stakeholders to deliver integrated legal and health services to older people in this community.

ECLC will continue work on preventing the abuse of older people with the support of the Victorian State Government.

This work aims to address the underlying causes of elder abuse, such as age discrimination and negative attitudes and beliefs about older people.

The Eastern Elder Abuse Network Recom-

mends older people maintain connections with trusted family, friends and neighbours, and in their local community; consider their future needs and plan for transitions associated with ageing through Powers of Attorney, living arrangements, advance care planning and wills; make informed decisions before making changes to their finances or living arrangements through independent advice; establish a group of trusted people and professionals who they can turn to for support; and ask for help as soon as possible if abuse is taking place.

Eastern Community Legal Centre offers free legal assistance relating to the abuse of older people from its office in Healesville and at multiple locations including Ringwood Magistrates' Court (Intervention Order Service) and outreach services to Yarra Junction, Monbulk and Lilydale.

Wood will make good on pledges

By Casey Neill Returned La Trobe MP Jason Wood says it's nice to again serve the people.

"Every time you go to parliament you miss home, but that's where you can improve the lives of the electorate," he told the Mail.

"Thank everyone who voted and supported me.

"To those who didn't, I hope I can earn your trust."

Mr Wood said he was feeling confident ahead of the Saturday 18 May federal election.

"Our internal polling had me doing OK," he said.

"The key was ... we had delivered locally."

He'll have plenty more to deliver if his preelection promises are anything to go by.

During the election campaign, Mr Wood promised $110 million would go towards duplicating Wellington Road.

He also said a new mobile base station would improve mobile coverage for Gembrook under a Liberal National Government, and that the Gembrook Cockatoo Football Netball Club would receive $450,000 towards facility upgrades.

Mr Wood said he'd made other cash available for the club after the previous election, and that work was finally due to start in October.

"They are now going to have state of the art change rooms," he said.

He said his promise of funding for a dedicated children's emergency department for Casey Hospital would also benefit the hills.

La Trobe MP Jason Wood on election day.

Mr Wood was also part of the $300 million promise to seal roads across the Dandenong Ranges and surrounding areas.

The federal funding will enable 500kms of dirt roads in the Yarra Ranges and Cardinia Shire to be sealed over a 10-year period.

The funding announcement was the result of an advocacy partnership between the two councils and both shires will now receive $150 million to go towards sealing roads.

Mr Wood said the Federal Government really wanted to work with the state and local

governments to deliver on its commitments.

"I've never had so much money coming in for roads and infrastructure," he said.

Over in Aston, Liberal MP Alan Tudge was re-elected.

The community will now look for him to make good on a pledge to build a multi-level carpark at the Ferntree Gully train station.

"I have secured $15 million which will allow us to construct up to 500 carparks at Ferntree Gully station," he said.

Promises all over the shop

By Casey Neill Casey MP Tony Smith has plenty of promises to keep following his party’s federal election success.

The latest two-candidate preferred results put Liberal Mr Smith 9.38 per cent ahead of Australian Labor Party rival Bill Brindle following the 18 May poll, with almost 80 per cent of votes counted.

The Liberal-National Government holds the majority of seats in the House of Representatives.

Mr Smith committed more than $6.3 million to his electorate during the election campaign.

This was in addition to $300 million to seal 500 kilometres of dirt roads across the Dandenong Ranges and surrounding areas over 10 years, and a $250,000 boost to allow Sport and Life Training (SALT) to expand in the Yarra Valley.

In the hills, Montrose will receive a $113,532 CCTV system and $125,000 will extend the Monbulk CCTV security camera network to provide greater coverage of the Monbulk Recreation Reserve.

The reserve will also receive $250,000 for a new car park and play area.

Mount Evelyn Football Ground will receive $1 million to help build a new pavilion, Dandenong Ranges RSL will receive $45,000 for a new verandah and $272,000 will upgrade Upwey-Tecoma Bowls Club’s front green, replace existing lights and install new lighting.

Another $500,000 will go towards a new netball court with lighting at the Belgrave Recreation Reserve, and $40,000 will help build a new shed at the Ferny Creek Scout Hall.

Ring Terry Miller direct for the the best best prices prices BEST PRICE, BEST TANKS WITH A LIFETIME GUARANTEE It’s time to catch it, order and build your concrete tank NOW!!!

Ph. 0260 267 021 Concrete tanks built correctly will last a life time!

Terry Miller from Terry Miller Concrete Tanks has been in the concrete tank building business for nearly 30 years. Being from country Victoria himself, Terry realises the importance of good water storage systems.

Concrete water tanks built correctly will last a lifetime. They keep your water cool, clean and algae free. This is because our tanks have 5-inch walls and a six-inch base, and are poured with 40-mpa strength concrete not 25 or 30 mpa. We also use plasticiser to keep up the strength in the tanks instead of water. And after 28 days of curing the strength of the concrete will be between 48 and 52 mpa. And each tank is poured individually on site. These tanks come out white, which is a sign of the strength in the tanks. The MPA is a measure of how much concrete there is as parts per 1000. The walls of the tank are vibrated all around to ensure that there are no air bubbles and that the concrete is compacted down. Terry generally builds tanks in three sizes, 50,000, 105,000 and 120,000 either with a silo (metal) roof, concrete top or open top tanks.

The tanks will not blow away or fall apart, and this is particularly important in areas where there is high wind, or in fire prone districts. In the event of a fire, a large tank (120,000 litres) can supply water back up to the main house. By setting up a petrol powered generator and pumping water up onto the house directly, via a reverse water sprinkler system, you will keep your home cool and wet. Or if need be, you can jump into the tank to keep cool and be protected from flames and radiant heat.

Water is our most important resource, and we cannot have too much of it! So for all your water storage needs when you are thinking of installing your next tank, please call Terry for a quote on 0419462814 or 0260267021 or check out our web site, www.terrymillerconcretetanks.com.au.

Nearly three years ago, we suffered our own fire here, in Barnawartha, and we were lucky. But it made me realise how important good water storage is. We are in for a long, hot, dry summer, and fire restrictions are in. Having an ample supply of safely stored water is imperative. So why not contact Terry now about your water supply needs, BEFORE, the heat builds up and water scarce. There is nothing more refreshing than your own cool, clear, clean water!

Bin ban for e-waste

Two state stars

By Casey Neill A Lilydale mum and a Mount Evelyn project picked up state prizes for their disability work.

The Access All Terrain Program at the Mount Evelyn YMCA camp won the Initiative of the Year Award at the Victorian Disability Sport and Recreation Awards, announced on Wednesday 22 May. Melissa Hale from Lilydale was awarded Volunteer of the Year.

She is a champion for female participation in deaf cricket.

"I suppose all I can say is it's a great honour to be recognised among a group of amazing past winners over the past 10 years of these awards," she said.

"None of this would have been possible without the support of my husband James and my family, and my amazing team of deaf women who were willing to step outside their comfort zones and give this a go.

"It really doesn't feel like work, when it's something that is so close to your heart."

Ms Hale developed a love for deaf cricket when she joined the Melbourne Deaf Cricket Club committee about 13 years ago as a temporary secretary.

"I joined to simply help out because I was good at paper work and knew absolutely nothing about cricket, and didn't even like the game," she said.

"I came to realise that deaf cricket was so much more than just a cricket club or a cricket game to the players who attended.

"It was a second family - often a family that many felt they didn't have due to lack of communication within their own families."

Melbourne Deaf cricket Club is the oldest deaf sports club in the world, at 139 years old but deaf cricket clubs had never had women's teams before.

She set out to change this and established

Melissa Hale. 193019 the first ever deaf women's cricket team for Flemington Colts Cricket Club in the past 12 months.

As a result, Melbourne Deaf Cricket Club will have its first ever deaf women's cricket team.

She was also instrumental in working with Deaf Cricket Australia and Cricket Australia in organising the first deaf women's cricket exhibition matches at the recent National Cricket Inclusion Championships - a world-first and Australian-first.

YMCA Victoria delivers the Access All Terrain Program program in partnership with Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and Parks Victoria.

Picture: ROB CAREW The camping and outdoor adventure program helps people with physical disabilities increase their skills and confidence to be more active in all-terrain outdoor environments.

Participants learn manual wheelchair skills to use in all-terrain outdoor environments and about specialised adaptive recreation equipment.

They create a social network with others also interested in exploring the outdoors, and volunteer mentors and expert trainers are also people with disabilities.

Acting chief officer Gavin Freeman described the behaviour as reckless.

"Despite the end of the Fire Danger Period, landowners still need to exercise a high degree of caution when conducting burn-offs," he said.

"The call-outs of the past weekend have been a waste of CFA's time and resources.

"Last weekend, CFA crews responded to a ridiculous number burn-offs that were left by careless landowners meaning our crews lost time with their families and their jobs fixing your mistakes.

"Escaped burn-offs or those not conducted properly carry penalties under law."

Mr Freeman said it was not difficult to con-

duct a burn-off safely and legally.

"It is important to only burn off when the conditions are right and to check the weather forecast for the day of the burn and for a few days afterwards," he said.

"You should refrain from burning off on days when hot and windy conditions are forecast.

"It is essential to ensure there are enough people to monitor, contain and extinguish the burn safely and effectively.

"Never leave a burn-off unattended."

He said people should call triple-zero immediately if a burn-off got out of control.

It is also important to check local council laws before lighting up.

Residents must register all burn-offs with ESTA on 1800 668 511.

Household e-waste is banned from landfill from 1 July in a bid to encourage reuse.

The State Government ban will mean big changes on what can go into household waste bins.

Yarra Ranges Council explained that ewaste was any item with a plug, battery or cord that was no longer working or was not wanted.

On the list are irons, kettles, hairdryers, computer accessories, tablets, phones, TVs, LEDs and fluorescent lamps, electrical and electronic tools, toys, handheld video games, musical equipment and more.

Yarra Ranges Mayor Tony Stevenson said that any object that could take a power source, from a battery to a cord, was classified as ewaste and could be recycled.

“Electronics around the home, such as computers or televisions, contain precious, non-renewable metals such as gold and platinum, along with mixed plastics and metal circuitry, which can all take on a new life if recycled,” he said.

“For example, your toaster, which has aluminium, copper and nickel chrome alloy, can be reused to make new appliances - copper wiring can be used for anything from home electronics to electric cars.”

Cr Stevenson said some appliances could also contain toxic heavy metals, such as lead, mercury and arsenic.

“Recycling your appliances means we can prevent those metals from getting into the environment and re-use the materials safely in new products,” he said.

“It’s easy to take your e-waste to a better place, by dropping items off for free at your local waste transfer station or putting them out for collection in your annual hard waste collection where they will be separated for recycling.”

Rare snakes, lizards gone

By Jed Lanyon Thieves targeted Lilydale High School’s reptile room on Saturday 18 May, stealing several rare snakes and lizards.

About 2pm they entered a portable classroom through a sliding window and took four golden/green phase common tree snakes and three eastern water dragons.

The snakes, some of which were in their infancy, were worth up to $3000 while the lizards could fetch up to $500, according to teacher and reptile room co-ordinator Marcus Whitby.

Some of the animals had arrived at the school just a month earlier and there are fears they will be sold illegally.

“It does sort of appear that way when other animals that can’t be on-sold weren’t taken,” Mr Whitby said.

“They were pretty rare and hard to come by.”

Mr Whitby said there was much anticipation at the school about the arrival of the new creatures and that the baby snakes would require significant care to maintain their wellbeing.

“The kids were doing a great job with them because these young animals are hard to get feeding early on," he said.

"The kids worked hard and it’s a shame to lose them like this.

“Our biggest concern is if the people that took them don’t know what they are dealing with.”

Mr Whitby said that while the school had CCTV cameras in place in the area of the reptile room, the thieves managed to go through largely undetected due to blind spots.

Growing up in the garden

By Casey Neill The Patch Primary School and Kinder have launched a new Forest Classroom program.

They unveiled the initiative on Monday 20 May, during education week.

For two hours a fortnight, in all kinds of weather, Grade 5 students will help three and four-year-old kinder children as they explore, investigate, and engage in activities under the guidance of an environmental educator and kinder teachers.

They'll spend the time in the different eco zones on the school's 15-acre site, from wetlands to fern gullies, a fairy garden and more.

The Patch Kindergarten teacher Joanne Rouse said she couldn't wait to get started.

"It's an amazing opportunity for our kinder children to use these amazing school grounds and to have interaction between Grade 5 and kinder children," she said.

"Never in my 30 years in kinder teaching have I seen a space like it."

She said parents told the kinder that they

wanted nature opportunities for their children.

"I think it's serving the needs of the community," she said.

"It's addressing an increased need to have kids in nature - away from screens."

Ms Rouse said the program would also make the transition from kinder to school more seamless.

The school's assistant principal and environmental educator Michelle Rayner said the program was based on the forest school program of Scandinavia.

"It's about being prepared for the outdoors so you can enjoy it," she said.

"It's placing them in nature at an early age and building on natural curiosity."

Ms Rayner said participants would tap into everyday science through the experience.

"You don't need special science rooms, necessarily," she said.

Children will have time to observe, interact, consider and reflect.

She saw the program in action in Copenhagen in Denmark and Yorkshire in the UK first-

“We’re really disappointed and very frustrated," he said.

"The reptile room has been going for 17 years and this is the first time something like this has happened."

According to the school, the reptile room has the largest collection of animals in a school in Australia.

Anyone with information regarding the theft should call Lilydale Police on 9739 2300 or submit a report through Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

hand, thanks to the Education Department.

The Patch's school garden has been growing since 2006 with hard work from the school community and funding from a few garden awards.

Ms Rayner said the school had also won

maths and science awards for programs set in the garden.

"There's just nothing in the curriculum you couldn't learn from a space like this," she said.

"It backs up a lot of the theory that's taught in the classroom."

Stories of Vietnam at RSL

By Jed Lanyon An exhibition of portraits of Vietnam Veterans and their stories will add to Healesville RSL's support for a healing garden at Healesville Hospital.

Behind the Wire is the culmination of a three-year project by Belgrave photographer and writer Susan Gordon-Brown.

Half a century on from the Vietnam war, Ms Gordon-Brown set out to capture the images of the men and women who served and to tell the stories of day to day life outside of the politics and military history of which so much has already been written.

Released as a book in 2015, Behind the Wire is touring the country with personal insights into the war-time and post-war experiences of servicemen of all ranks whose jobs included cooks, dental assistants, truck drivers, medics, tank drivers, instrument fitters, forward scouts, riflemen, training team members, civilian nurses and more.

Healesville RSL General Manager Gary Slater said the opportunity to stage the exhibition coincided perfectly with their decision to support the healing garden project proposed by Eastern Health Foundation.

The foundation aims to raise $90,000 through sponsorship and community support for the garden which will provide an outdoor space designed to promote a healing and relaxing atmosphere for patients, visitors and staff.

Mr Slater said the RSL had donated $2,500 towards the project and committed to further fundraising.

"The project appealed to us because we have a number of veterans and their families who we assist through our welfare program who use the hospital as well as our broader RSL membership," he said.

"We were very keen to host this exhibition

Photographer and writer Susan Gordon-Brown and Healesville RSL general manager Gary Slater. which will be supported with memorabilia from our collection.

"We want veterans who see Behind the Wire in Healesville to feel that the 40 people who feature are representative of all veterans; that they are not being highlighted, just sharing their story.

"Having local memorabilia will help to broaden the experience," Mr Slater said.

The RSL will run raffles and have donation tins available during the six week exhibition.

Ms Gordon-Brown said she was thrilled when the RSL said they wanted to host Behind the Wire and delighted that it will support a relevant local project.

"For so many, the hospital environment is part of the healing environment and there is something about nature that helps," she said.

"And, it's not just the veterans, many will have family members in hospital.

"Several of the veterans I spoke to feel that life now is about family and community, and so many are involved in doing things for the

veteran community," Ms Gordon-Brown said.

"It comes back to community and this fits so well with that notion that they are still serving their country."

Behind the Wire will open at Healesville RSL's Gallipoli Lounge on Sunday 19 May at 2pm and run through to Sunday 30 June.

Visit www.behindthewire.com.au for more information on Behind the Wire or www. healesvillersl.com.au or phone 5962 5017 for information on the Healesville exhibition.

THE LOWDOWN Q&A What is something people don't know about you?

I'm not from an art background but a labouring background. I've spent a lot of my time in the CFA, planting trees and general labouring.

I come from a long line of people who are miners and meatworkers so I don't fit in in some sense to the more intellectual circles - I'm comfortable there, but my heart has been in more practical and physical things for a lot of my life.

What has been your most memorable moment?

It's a pain memory actually; I stepped into a pit of fire that was concealed when I was 9-years-old, and I was caught in it momentarily. I dropped into this sort of hole and the pain was unbelievable - a sudden searing pain. I got very serious burns from it and I wasn't able to walk for some time. The memory of that pain is still with me today.

Is there a medium that you've been exploring or would like to explore in the future?

I'm not sure. Everything I do, you want to keep exploring it, it's this continuous desire to liberate and be free with what you're doing and inventive and that's not so much a new medium.

I've done film a little bit, but I still prefer the things I can do with my hands. I'm rather fond of traditional mediums.

What do you hope to achieve with your cartoons?

I like to think, there's something traditional in what the good cartoonist does and that is to be the voice of the outsiders, to notice something that no one else thinks is important, but really is important. I would like to think people will look at it, be intrigued or mystified, there's a poetic element in a cartoon in my mind- it's not just a gag. I like to think it would soften people rather than sharpen them and that it opens people up a bit, and that's a big wish.

with cartoonist Michael Leunig

When did you design your iconic character caricature?

I think it was at school, I would have been about 16-year-old and I used to draw this profile of a person - sort of, stupid thing. It was just a head side-on and it was meant to be just an idiotic, dumb person. I found you could make it quite expressive just by the shape of the eye and mouth, and its pure dumb innocence was what its strength was, because it was nondescript, it could be anybody.

Which object that you've lost do you wish you still had?

My dog, Dina. I had a dog who was my dearest, closest spiritual companion as a 12-year-old.

It was the loveliest little kelpie and it just went everywhere with me and one day me and my father went down to the Mornington Peninsula and the dog was always waiting for me. We

came back and it was gone. To this day I will see a black and tan kelpie and say, 'that's like Dina'. I really was grief stricken for a long time.

How do you balance making a pointed or perhaps even controversial statement without crossing the line of being offensive?

I think we are in a bad way at the moment and there's a lot of intolerance and we've forgotten the idea that it's good to be challenged and good to be able to bear with things that you might not agree with. I think the cartoonist's job was to always push that boundary a bit, and I have been in trouble a lot of times in my life over these things. I've had a life time of trying to keep the line not getting to tight, and pushing the line back a bit in the belief that we'd do well to bear with each other and talk it through rather than silence each other too much.

THREE ‌ tips for winter driving

1

VicRoads recommends drivers check their tyre pressure, lights, fog lights and battery are working before heading off on long winter drives, putting anti-freeze in their radiator and packing an ice scraper and sunglasses for snow glare.

2

To avoid getting into trouble on the mountain, drivers should always fill up their fuel tank prior to entering alpine regions.

3

Drivers should check for black ice warnings on the VicTraffic website or app before heading off. Black ice generally forms at night time, in the early mornings or on sections of the roads that haven't been exposed to sunlight.

VicRoads recommended drivers delay their trip to avoid icy conditions, or allowing plenty of time and taking it slowly if they must drive.

IN BRIEF

Big stage change

By Casey Neill Ross Farnell's decision to leave Burrinja after two decades leading the Upwey cultural centre wasn't an easy one.

"But 20 years felt like a good time to have a change, not just for me but for our family," he told the Mail.

"It's new opportunities."

Burrinja announced its executive director would step down at the end of June on Wednesday 22 May. Venue manager Toni Kirk, alongside the board, will lead the organisation immediately following Dr Farnell's departure while a recruitment process for a permanent replacement takes place.

Board president Holly DeMaria thanked Dr Farnell for his strong leadership and acknowledged his service to arts, culture and community in the Dandenong Ranges.

She said Burrinja had gone from strength to strength under his leadership and was "a highly-regarded cultural organisation and hub of creativity in the region that will continue to have real impact in our community".

Dr Farnell told the Mail that this was a great time for someone new to step into the Burrinja leadership role, with a major centre redevelopment about to start.

"I thought it was a really fantastic opportunity for a new person to come in and have their fresh vision and their ideas come to the fore," he said.

The building works will run for about 10 months from June and will transform several spaces.

Dr Farnell said he would like to come back to see how it all looks.

"I'll definitely be back to say hello to the fantastic crew," he said.

His background is as a musician and performing artist, and he hopes to spend more time in his home studio once he wraps up.

He looks back fondly on his start at Burrinja.

Ross Farnell in the Burinja theatre. 193904 "I had this newly-minted PhD in cultural studies and was looking for work that was paying a bit more regularly than playing in a band," he said.

"I saw the ad for an executive officer at a cultural centre in the Dandenongs.

"As someone who has always looked forward to coming up to the Dandenong Ranges, imagine working in a cultural centre in such an amazing place.

"I was fortunate enough to get the job and have been here ever since.

"Because the centre has evolved so much, there's been so much opportunity for me to evolve and grow in what I do as well.

"There's seldom been that time of feeling like you're just doing the same thing.

"You never quite know what your day is going to hold."

Dr Farnell said the role wasn't just a job - he was part of a community, one he can see con-

Picture: ROB CAREW tinuing to open its arms to the wider community for another 20 years.

"I'm totally optimistic about Burrinja's future," he said.

"I've been leading it, but we have such a fantastic team of staff and always have.

"That spirit of what we do and what we achieve here is really valued by people, even as they move on for career opportunities elsewhere."

He's been part of some really big moments over the years, like finding out Burrinja had secured cash for its theatre.

"But sometimes it's the little things, like sitting down with an artist over a cup of tea as they're preparing to leave the studio after three years," he said.

"Or it's the kids knocking on the stage door to come in and do their production.

"At the end of the day that's been about making a better cultural hub for the community."

Pet sale shake-up Pet owners and businesses looking to advertise a dog, cat, puppy or kitten for sale or giveaway in Victoria will soon have to register with the State Government.

The Pet Exchange Register (PER) online database will generate a unique source number for anyone advertising a pet for sale or giveaway in the state.

From 1 July, it will be illegal to advertise a dog, cat, puppy or kitten for sale or give away without the PER source number and the animal's microchip number.

Yarra Ranges Mayor Tony Stevenson said the register aimed to make it easier to trace dogs and cats.

This would deter illegal pet sales and help Animal Welfare Victoria and councils to enforce animal management laws.

"Animals provide great companionship and brighten up a home, and we're lucky to have organisations like Animal Aid working to find the perfect home for kittens, puppies, cats and dogs," Cr Stevenson said.

"When you're adopting a pet, you want to make sure that it's coming from a legitimate source and not supporting illegal pet breeding farms.

"Our Community Safety Officers and State Government authorities investigate these whenever they're reported.

"Having a centralised register will make that work easier and give residents confidence that the animal they're getting has come from the right place."

It will be possible to report illegal advertisements through the PER and check source numbers posted on advertisements.

Individuals looking to sell or rehome a dog or cat by word of mouth instead of advertising, such as to a family member, will not have to enrol on the PER. Visit animalwelfare.vic.gov.au for more information.

Cash for community Several Yarra Ranges groups are welcoming grants to boost equipment and skills.

The Belgrave and Seville junior football clubs, 1st Kallista Scout Group, Sherbrooke Archers, Monbulk Bowling Club and South Belgrave Football Club were among 386 grassroots sports clubs across Victoria to share in more than $530,000.

Monbulk MP James Merlino on Thursday 23 May announced the clubs had successfully applied for funding in round two of the State Government's 2018-'19 Sporting Club Grants Program.

The grants provide clubs up to $1000 for new uniforms and equipment, up to $2000 to train coaches, officials and volunteers, and up to $5000 to improve operational effectiveness.

The Belgrave and Seville juniors will use their grant money for uniforms.

The 1st Kallista Scout Group, Monbulk Bowling Club and the Sherbrooke Archers will buy equipment.

The South Belgrave Football Club will conduct committee effectiveness training.

"The Sporting Club Grants Program is giving grassroots sports clubs in Monbulk the support they need to grow their ranks and help more people than ever play the sports they love," Mr Merlino said.

Grants for Victoria’s environment volunteers now open

Over the coming months, approximately half of Burrinja's internal spaces will undergo a $3 million redesign and refit.

Redevelopment for Burrinja beckons

By Derek Schlennstedt Over the past two decades, Burrinja Cultural Centre has developed into an iconic space for the hills.

From next month, about half of Burrinja’s internal spaces will undergo a $3 million redesign and refit.

With completion scheduled for early next year, the construction will greatly improve the gallery so it can accommodate works from major lending institutions as well as local artists, and be able to hold more than twice as many studio artists in a range of purpose-built spaces.

Burrinja executive director Ross Farnell told the Mail that patrons shouldn’t worry as the theatre would remain open during the rebuild.

“The theatre and its services will remain acmailcommunity.com.au

cessible and we will provide a theatre program for 2019 along with the usual school and community shows,” he said.

“Work will start internally in June and we’ve been getting the venue progressively ready for that process to start.

“The box office and reception have shortened hours, because we don’t have the gallery and studios to visit during renovation.”

The project is expected to take 12 months and will complete works in areas of the facility that were untouched during the last redevelopment in 2011.

Dr Farnell said the project would transform the functionally-distinct yet interdependent creative spaces and reconfigure many "ad hoc", tired and disconnected areas into flowing, active and more usable spaces.

“In 2011 we had a chance to do half of the building and this does the other half of the building,” he said.

“We are pretty excited and we’re deep into thinking about the new studio areas and how things will change, and especially the gallery program for 2020 because we’ll have much better capacity.”

The redevelopment will transform Burrinja’s galleries, artist studios and making spaces; cafe, hospitality and music performance space; and the first-floor ‘black box’ multipurpose space, along with the main entranceway to the building.

Patrons can follow the progress on the Burrinja Facebook page and find out what’s on during the redevelopment at www.burrinja.org.au.

Victorian Landcare Grants for projects that protect and restore Victoria’s land and environment are now open.

Energy, Environment and Climate Change Minister Lily D’Ambrosio announced the $1.76 million grants program to support Landcare and other environmental volunteer groups.

Monbulk MP James Merlino said grants of up to $20,000 were available to Landcare, Friends of, Coastcare and other environmental volunteer groups and networks for on-ground works, education and capacity-building projects.

Support grants of $500 are also available for new and existing groups and networks to help with operating costs and provide a stable base for Landcare and environmental volunteering across Victoria.

“Since its inception more than 30 years ago, the Landcare movement has made an important contribution to Victoria’s environment and we are committed to supporting this work," Mr Merlino said.

“These grants will go a long way in aiding the great on-ground actions of community and environmental volunteer groups who work tirelessly to protect Victoria’s land and environment.”

The sweet sounds of ukuleles descended on Emerald for this year’s Hills Ukulele Festival.

The event ran at Emerald Primary School on Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 May and featured a diverse range of world-class ukulele performers, ukulele groups and workshops.

Festival organiser and the school’s music teacher, Dan MacEoin, said all Saturday workshop participants were welcomed to the main stage during the gala concert on Sunday.

“How many music festivals have that level of inclusivity?” he said.

ENTERTAINMENT

Songs for nature and women too

Superman super-mad

By Casey Neill

Both familiar and unique, Brightburn is a chilling, tightly-paced superhero horror film.

Jackson A Dunn delivers a nuanced, confident central performance as Brandon Bryer, an alien boy who is adopted by a farming couple after they found him inside a meteorite.

Brandon is initially a kind, quiet boy, but becomes guarded and deceptive as he explores his superhuman abilities.

The film succinctly establishes Brandon's extra-terrestrial origin and his nurturing family life, rendering his corruption all the more shocking.

As Brandon's angst and sense of detachment from humanity escalate, he unleashes his powers in terrifying ways, leading to several gut-wrenching horror sequences.

Tense silence, evocative lighting and clever staging tighten the suspense to nail-biting levels, and while some of the deaths are extremely graphic, the gore is used sparingly.

The narrative suspense emerges from Brandon's dark empowerment and from his loving mother Tori (Elizabeth Banks), who becomes Brandon's only fragile link to decency and refuses to blame him for the mysterious deaths around town.

The only major problems in Brightburn are a pointless dream sequence and the background effect of the meteorite upon Brandon.

Turning young Superman into a slasher villain, Brightburn is a tense, confronting horror film with solid scares and engrossing character development.

- Seth Lukas Hynes

A Belgrave South charity concert will shine a spotlight on the environment while supporting women in need.

A Pathway into Nature is a Sacred Stage event to raise money for a shelter for women experiencing homelessness.

It will feature short musical acts in various genres, from folk to classical, Celtic, country and more.

Singer Jacqui Rutten started running Sacred Stage concerts back in 2007.

“I think homelessness is one of the biggest issues in Australia at the moment,” she said.

“I think it’s causing a lot of pressure for families, for the elderly, for young people.

“The women and children are the most vulnerable.

“It’s a small hall, so we probably won’t raise a fortune, but I wanted to make the concert affordable for locals as well.”

Other performers will include Tecoma harpist Elizabeth Sutherland, John Hunter on guitar and harmonica, singer and banjo player AnneMaria Plevier, and country trio Oh Suzannah.

Ms Rutten said she was looking forward to hearing each of their interpretations of the concert title and theme.

“The focus is on nature because that’s really the major asset of the hills that we’ve got here,” she said.

Southern Sherbrooke Historical Society, 127 Colby Drive, Belgrave South, will host A

Tecoma harpist Elizabeth Sutherland. 193827 Pathway into Nature from 2pm on Saturday 8 June.

Entry is $15 for adults and free for children.

Brightburn Starring Jackson A Dunn, Elizabeth Banks and David Denman Rated MA15+

property

TANGLEWOOD PARK – 30 ACRES OF UNSURPASSED QUALITY ESTABLISHED by its owners 30 years ago, the agent says this property offers everything the serious equestrian enthusiast could ask for as well as a custom-built Lucas and Morris home on 12.21 hectares of established gardens, pasture and waterways.

The property has been running as a renowned stud farm and so there's excellent fencing including electric fencing, a laneway to the paddocks allowing easy access, four spring-fed dams, holding yard, lunging arena, floodlit stable complex with two birthing stables, and two additional oversized stables suitable for the larger breeds of horses, plus three additional stables complete with separate tack room, feed room, wash bay, float cover and 14m by 7.3m machinery shed.

The home has been situated to take advantage of the park-like setting with all living areas overlooking the pool, established ornamental gardens and onto rolling pastures and shade trees.

Big living areas span the full length of the

home and include a lounge and dining room with central fireplace, family/meals area, separate rumpus room with wet bar and a huge fourth living area that is currently used as a work-from-home space but the agent says could also be used as a children’s play room or theatre room.

The kitchen offers plenty of cupboards and bench space, one and a half ovens, hotplates and dishwasher.

There are four bedrooms, the master serviced by a walk-in robe and ensuite that overlooks a lush fernery, while the remaining bedrooms are serviced by the family bathroom complete with a bath.

Luxury extras include internal access from the double garage, split-system heating and cooling and soaring ceilings with clerestory windows that the agent says add loads of light and dramatic appeal.

The in-ground pool nestles into its lush surrounds and ensures that this is a property that has been designed to cater to every need, the agent says. ●

Harry’s well on the Money

By Nick Creely Another bag of goals to Harry Money, and another four points - things are going swimmingly for Berwick after a 99-point victory against Woori Yallock on Saturday at Edwin Flack Reserve.

The champion Wickers side inflicted the Tigers to their first loss of the AFL Outer East Premier Division season, in another impressive four-quarter performance, 20.17 (137) to 6.2 (38).

On a day where nasty weather also seemed to be looming large, the destructive Money was the man once again, slotting eight majors to take his tally to 25 from the first five matches.

Rhys Nisbet's side were greeted by a competitive Tigers outfit on the wide expanses of Edwin Flack in the first term to hold just a 13-point lead, but stormed ahead with a dominant six-goal second term, with the visitors only able to register a point.

With Travis Tuck returning to his damaging best after being a late withdrawal prior to the interleague break, and Madi Andrews stunningly taking his place despite missing the trip to Bendigo to represent the league last weekend with a broken hand, the Wickers just had too much class through the middle, giving Money plenty of chances to weave his magic.

Defender Jo West, Matthew Young and Dylan Morris were others to impress for the home side, while for the Tigers, Hayden Smith and former Wicker Michael Riseley played strong games.

Elsewhere in the Premier Division, Narre Warren powered away from Wandin to hand the Dogs another disappointing result on the road at Kalora Park, 22.14 (146) to 8.7 (55).

After a bright start - which saw the home side hold just a 10-point quarter time lead after a scrappy opening - the Magpies started to find their groove in the second, with forward

Berwick star Harry Money in action on Saturday. 193859 Mitch Cox looking particularly lively as the home side began to move the ball freely off half-back.

But there was a bright spark for the Dogs in the second term, with sharpshooter Justin Van Unen - on his way to an incredible seven goals out of eight for his side - kicking an incredible goal out of midair from a marking contest.

But it was the third term that Matt Shinners' side flexed their muscles and surged ahead,

Picture: ROB CAREW

with the home side slamming on 10-goals and showcasing their burning speed and elite skills by foot, using the ball superbly through the corridor and getting it into the forward half, where Cox ran amok to bag three for the quarter.

Running out 91-point winners, with Brad Scalzo, Cox (six goals), Dylan Quirk and Trent Cody all dominating, the Magpies maintained their edge on top of the table.

In the remaining matches, Cranbourne inflicted Healesville with a heavy 24.19 (163) to 7.4 (46) loss, while Beaconsfield thumped Upwey Tecoma, 19.13 (127) to 7.13 (55).

In Division 1, Monbulk now stands as the only undefeated side of the competition, knocking off Pakenham in an early season blockbuster at home, 14.15 (99) to 7.6 (48).

The two undefeated sides did battle in a much-anticipated match, but it was the Hawks that were simply merciless from the opening bounce, having 12 scoring shots to two in the first term alone to open up a 30-point quarter time lead.

The Lions - as expected from a good side - responded well in the second term, but the home team always had the answers whenever challenged, holding sway to take in a 23-point lead into the main break.

From what was a scrap soon became champagne footy from the Hawks, who slammed on seven-goals to three after half time to run out comfortable winners.

In an utterly unstoppable display, Shane Williams booted an incredible 10 majors in a best afield performance - an effort that almost single handedly ensured his side could knock the Lions off its perch.

In other matches, Emerald also found some much-needed form, belting Warburton Millgrove by just under three-figures, 18.18 (126) to 4.4 (28). Officer made it two in a row, with a strong win against Belgrave, 14.11 (95) to 8.12 (60), while Mount Evelyn knocked off Doveton, 15.13 (103) to 8.14 (62).

Gembrook Cockatoo, meanwhile, also picked up a massive win in Division 2, amassing 39 scoring shots on their way to victory against Yea, 18.21 (129) to 8.9 (57).

Off the back of former North Melbourne ruckman Hamish McIntosh - who slotted eight in a brilliant performance - the Brookers were never headed after leading all game.

Hawks girls dominate, despite some quality opposition Monbulk Junior Football Club had another away round, playing Seville, Mount Evelyn and Healesville on another cracking day for junior football.

Under-9 Monbulk vs Seville The Hawks came up against a very good Seville side.

Although they didn't play the best first quarter, the team came back to play three quality footy quarters to finish the match.

Two out of three Representative netball was played on 18 May and Outer East Netball travelled to Queen Elizabeth Oval in Bendigo to take on the Bendigo FNL. Olinda Ferny Creek was well represented in open netball with young defender Brodie Smith, goal shooter Peri Stewart and centre Krista Tomlinson all selected, with Tomlinson appointed captain.

The Outer East side came up against a very strong and determined Bendigo outfit and was outplayed throughout the game, eventually going down by 15 goals.

Local competition returned on 25 May and the day started with Olinda Ferny Creek's 17 and under side taking on the top-of-the-table Rythdale-Officer-Cardinia at Officer Recreation Reserve.

The girls battled hard but were made to pay the price for too many turnovers by a very talented opponent, with ROC eventually running out victorious by 42 goals, 54 to 12.

Charlotte McGrath, Keely Butler and Kate Mikulandra were among the best players for Olinda Ferny Creek.

The action continued at Olinda Recreation Reserve when D-grade took on Berwick Springs.

The Swannies jumped out to an 11-goal lead at quarter time but Berwick Springs hit back hard and by three quarter time had narrowed the lead to a single goal.

Olinda Ferny Creek steadied in the last quarter and eventually ran out four-goal victors, 25 to 21.

Maddy Smith, Sarah Seddon and Michelle Tomlinson were best players for the Swannies.

C-grade had a strong four-quarter performance against Berwick Springs, despite losing goal shooter Kisten Andrich early in the game.

The Swannies won every quarter to record a 25-goal victory, 43 to 18.
