Dancing on the waves

By Phil Jarratt A couple of weeks ago, while interviewing young Noosa surfing brothers Kaiden and Landen Smales for Noosa Today, I was fascinated by the excitement they expressed when discussing a newfound connection with the Kabi Kabi First Nation through a program called Dingira Warrai (dancing on waves).

Kaiden said: “It was just awesome to meet people like Kabi Kabi man Lyndon Davis, who is a good person to learn the stories from. Every time he came to our coaching sessions he made such a great connection to the land and the ocean. He was telling us the story of how Noosa Head was made, and suddenly this amazing rainbow appears while he’s dancing around. It was magical. But just being able to teach the kids how to surf and see the smile on their faces was magical too.”

Tourism levy spat

By Phil Jarratt

nary magnitude for the tourism industry, yet it has been introduced at the last minute almost as an afterthought, with no consultation with the industry and no prior warning in the first round of budget community consultation. This casual attitude to the major employer in the shire could almost be perceived as arrogant and

is particularly offensive given the COVID challenges that the industry has faced in the past 12 months. It would appear that a multi-million dollar industry has been thrown into disarray without serious thought being given by Council to the consequences of the proposal.”

A Noosa Council proposal to change the way it distributes the long-standing tourism and economic levy in the 2021-22 budget is set to “explode”, according to sources inside Council and Tourism Noosa.

Tourism industry and local government insiders were this week calling the proposal the death knell for a 20-year equal partnership between Council and the shire’s biggest industry.

In a submission to council, former councillor and inaugural Tourism Board member Vivien Griffin wrote: “This is a change of extraordi-

Book launch

NoosaToday.com.au Telephone: 07 5455 6946

The first comprehensive history of Noosa in more than 40 years will be launched with considerable fanfare at the end of July.

Legendary playwright David Williamson will launch Phil Jarratt’s Place Of Shadows, The History of Noosa, at the Harbour Wine Bar on Friday, July 30. The book, beautifully illustrated with archive and contemporary photos, is the culmination of more than two years’ work for the Noosa Today writer, who has been based in Noosa for the last 30 of his 50-year career as a journalist, author and film-maker.

Says Phil: “This is the book I’ve been researching for nearly half my life, but it took a Covid year to finally bring it to fruition. Since the pandemic began, I think we’ve all developed a greater appreciation of where we live, its stories and its soul, and staying home instead of travelling gave me the time to pull all the threads of research together and create a book – my fortieth – that celebrates my adopted home but doesn’t pull punches about its dark past.”

Others appear to agree. David Williamson wrote: “A gripping read with a deeply felt moral heart. Phil Jarratt’s book couldn’t have come at a more opportune moment. Noosa’s beginnings were built on cruelty towards its original inhabitants and at the present moment it’s in danger of being loved to death. Phil, with

panache and clarity, takes us through the history that moved Noosa from that shameful beginning to its present uber-desirability and suggests cogent ways to address the very real problems that our past and our present force us to face.”

“This very readable book describes how Noosa residents have mobilised to fight off every attempt to change the culture that has made it one of the most liveable communities on the planet,” wrote entrepreneur and Friend of Noosa Bob Ansett.

Said prize-winning historical novelist Jock Serong: “The Kabi Kabi paid dearly for the dreams of others, and Jarratt unsparingly sets out a litany of murder and subjugation, deploying all of his celebrated gifts as journalist, historian, business analyst and raconteur to paint a detailed portrait of Noosa; one that’s leavened with conscience and empathy.”

Without our magnificent ocean there would be no Hastings Street, no sought after real estate, no surf, no festivals - no Noosa.

On Tuesday the UN marked World Ocean Day after this year declaring 2021-2030 the International Decade for Ocean Science.

With only about 10 per cent of the ocean’s make up understood by science the UN has high hopes for the decade ahead.

The entire ocean floor is expected to be mapped by 2030. The UN hopes for a clean ocean where pollution sources are identified and reduced or removed, a healthy ocean where ecosystems are understood, protected and managed and a safe ocean where livelihoods are protected from ocean-related hazards.

As the oceans make up 70 per cent of the planet and control climate change through their absorption of heat and carbon, “the health of the ocean will ultimately determine the survival of humankind on earth,” according to UN special envoy to the ocean Peter Thomson.

It’s a big ask by the UN when you consider a decade on from the establishment of the Ocean Health Index project scientists continue to wrangle on defining the indicators to measure ocean health. A major challenge arose between scientists working within the project who defined a healthy ocean as one that had both nature and people thriving while others defined healthy oceans as pristine oceans. Not surprising, I suppose, when you consider the issues involved in dealing with just one river.

Community plea: Don’t release killer

By Margaret Maccoll Outrage at the possibility a convicted murderer and rapist of a Noosa schoolgirl may be released on parole has led tens of thousands to sign a petition to the Queensland Parole Board to keep him in prison.

When news broke that Barrie John Watts, who abducted, tortured, raped and murdered 12 year old Sian Kingi in 1987 had applied for parole community members took to social media to voice their anger and set up petitions of protest.

The former Sunshine Beach State High School student was cycling her bike home through Pinaroo Park at Noosa Junction when Watts and his then wife, mother-of-six Valmae Beck, lured the girl to help look for a lost dog before abducting her in a Holden Kingswood station wagon.

The crime shocked the community and the country 35 years ago.

Beck and Watts were both sentenced to life imprisonment but Beck died in 2008.

Ninderry MP Dan Purdie said he had been assisting his constituents, the Kingi family, to make submissions against the killer’s release since they became aware Watts had applied for parole last November.

“The Kingi’s are very private,” he said. “They are struggling with all of this coming up again and going through this again.

“I’ve been guided by the family every step of the way.”

Sian Kingi Mr Purdie said when news of Watts parole application recently became public he was inundated with emails from Sian’s former school friends and teachers asking what they could do.

We decided to collectively launch a petition, he said.

Within three days more than 47,000 people had added their signatures to the Sign for Sian petition which Mr Purdie plans to table in Parliament next Wednesday.

“The parole board is an independent body.

You’d hope they’d make a decision in the best interests of the community,” Mr Purdie said.

He said since November many people had submitted letters to the parole board through the appropriate channels and the petition clearly shows the community does not support this parole.

Mr Purdie urged people to sign the petition to support the family and our community’s campaign to ensure Watts, and others like him, remain behind bars for life.

Former Police Commissioner Bob Atkinson who was an investigating officer in Noosa at the time of the crime has said some offenders lose the right to ever be reintroduced back into society.

“Barrie Watts is one of those offenders,” Mr Purdie said.

Mr Purdie said Watts application could come before the parole board at any time.

He said the board was supposed to hear matters within three months of application but because of COVID they had a backlog.

If Watts is granted parole the board will notify the victim’s family only a couple days before the release date and review the decision only if “new information” is put forward, Mr Purdie said.

Two critical after series of crashes Two people remain in a critical condition after of a series of crashes on the Bruce Highway at Coles Creek south of Gympie last night.

Forensic crash unit officers are investigating the crashes.

Preliminary investigations indicate around 6.45pm a Suzuki was traveling north on the Bruce Highway when the driver has hit a guard rail and the vehicle has spun before coming to a stop.

A Subaru has stopped to assist and when

the driver got out of her car, she and the driver of the Suzuki, have both been hit by a Hyundai.

After that three other vehicles have collided with the Suzuki which was still in the middle of the road.

The man driver of the Suzuki and woman from the Subaru have both been transported to the Sunshine Coast University Hospital in critical conditions.

Investigations are continuing.

Machete stabbing during home invasion

By Abbey Cannan A Sunshine Coast man has been held down and stabbed with a machete by a group of men who broke into his home overnight.

Maroochydore detectives are investigating the assault, where police will allege four men

entered a house in Buderim on Booral Street at 6.20pm.

A 29-year-old resident of the home was allegedly held down and struck multiple times with a machete, causing lacerations to his chest, face and lower back.

The men have then fled the address.

The 29-year-old man was transported to Sunshine Coast University Hospital in a serious but stable condition.

Detectives are appealing for anyone with further information to contact police.

IN BRIEF HISTORIC RAPE CHARGE A 62-year-old man has been charged with sexual offences against a child allegedly occurring in 1988.

Police alleged the man indecently assaulted the then 13-year-old girl from June to September on multiple occasions.

Detectives from Maroochydore Child Protection Unit arrested the Mountain Creek man who has since been charged with nine counts of rape and seven counts of indecent treatment of girls under 14.

The man was denied police bail and was due to appear in Maroochydore Magistrates Court on Monday 7 June.

Detectives are encouraging any other potential victims who may have experienced similar behaviour between 1987 and 1990 across the Sunshine Coast area, to come forward.

TEENS CHARGED WITH ARMED ROBBERY Three teenagers were charged with armed robbery and dangerous driving on a stretch of highway from the Sunshine Coast to Brisbane on Sunday night.

Police said about 10pm, two teenage boys and a teenage girl robbed a Mooloolaba convenience store armed with knives, fleeing with cash and cigarettes, before leaving in a stolen Toyota Camry.

Police further alleged that they attempted to intercept the vehicle south bound on the Bruce Highway a short time later but it drove away at high speed.

Police pursued the vehicle for a short time and were able to successfully deploy a Tyre Deflation Device (TDD) southbound on the Gateway Motorway causing the delamination of the front tyres and rims, however the vehicle continue to drive away at speed.

About 11.30pm the vehicle came to a stop on the Gateway Motorway, Nudgee after ramming a police vehicle, police said.

The group then fled from the vehicle allegedly armed with knives but were taken into police custody.

Police will allege that the vehicle was stolen from an Arthur Terrace residence in Red Hill on Saturday June 5.

There were no physical injuries to any person.

A 17-year-old South Maclean boy has been charged with unlawful use of a motor vehicle, enter premises with intent, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, evasion, armed robbery, fraud and holder of a class C learner licence failed to comply with requirements.

A 17-year-old Loganholme boy has been charged with one count each unlawful use of a motor vehicle, enter premises with intent, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, armed robbery and fraud.

A 16-year-old Logan Reserve girl has been charged with one count each of unlawful use of a motor vehicle, enter premises with intent and armed robbery.

Dancing on the waves From page 1 In an age when so many teenagers seem to live their lives with headphones on, it was just wonderful to see a couple of them so engaged.

Last week I got to share their excitement again, along with an assembly hall full of enthusiastic kids, when, as a celebration of Mabo Day, Tewantin State School hosted the premiere of short film The Dingira Warrai Story, which explains the connections between surfing, Indigenous culture, wellness and mental health.

It’s a complex idea but its realization is refreshingly simple. Take a bunch of kids to the beach, teach them about connections to land and sea, show them how to dance on both, teach them life skills to get them through tough times.

The surfing part of the program came from Kristy Quirk, whose Surf Dancer Academy has been teaching surfing and wave dancing for 18 years. She says: “What’s so great about this program is that we got to experience it through Indigenous dance and storytelling, with all that significance of connection to country and the ocean. We got to express that by dancing not on the land but on the ocean. I’ve spent a lot of time in Byron Bay, living with the Arakwal people, where there was always a lot of talk about the dolphin/eagle spirit, and that’s where this particular dance idea came from, with the dolphins dancing on the waves and the eagles dancing above the ocean.

“I’ve also always had this passion for learning about Aboriginal culture and their way of doing things. It’s so important for all of us to keep that connection to country, for our own

Lyndon’s magic rainbow. wellbeing and mental health. And with such a depth of culture, it’s a beautiful way to introduce people to surfing.”

Youturn Youth Support engagement manager Susan Beaton explained that the initial seven-week Dingira Warrai program, which ran through first term this year, was developed following Tewantin Dental Centre - part of Bupa’s Dental Network - applying for a grant to deliver a wellbeing program aimed at building resilience in children. The funding was awarded through Bupa’s Community Grants, enabling Youturn to deliver a pilot program for 30 local children and some parents.

Says Susan: “The events of 2020 brought many of us back to our local neighbourhoods - coming together to talk things over, taking time for family, sharing knowledge, stories and

Lyndon teaches traditional dance. skills - highlighting the strength in traditional First Nations ways of doing things. These perspectives are key to the oldest surviving culture on earth, and became our inspiration.

Partners Gubbi Gubbi Dance and Surf Dancer Academy were the perfect collaborators to deliver our program vision, and we are extremely grateful to Tewantin Dental Centre for gifting local children this experience.”

The Dingira Warrai program aims to embed traditional knowledge and skills to tackle ad-

versity, or issues such as feeling anxious, down or under pressure. Its unique mix of elements has participants and supporters, including Rick Cass, deputy principal of Tewantin State School, excited about Dingira Warrai’s potential. Mr Cass said: “Our children who identify as either Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander heritage are thrilled to be given this unique and fun learning opportunity - using an outdoor classroom in the early morning as a place and time to promote wellbeing is magic.”

Tourism levy explosion From page 1 The brief community consultation period ended on Monday but not before an “urgent message” from Tourism Noosa chair Richard Stevens had resulted in a tsunami of protests.

Mr Stevens wrote to members: “Toward the end of this year, Tourism Noosa will be working with Council to negotiate a new contract to continue its operations in 2022 and beyond.

I would like to draw your attention to the second page of the 2021-22 Draft Budget information sheet 3 - Proposed changes to General Rates and Levies, and section 2 under Levies: ‘Tourism promotion and economic development activities have evolved into core Council business. As such it is now considered that tourism and economic development activities should be funded by general rates (applied only to those properties who are currently paying the levy) rather than through the continuation of a special levy.’

“This statement provides a fundamental change to the transparency of how Noosa Council accounts for rate payers’ Tourism Levy funds, and if they are being used in the best interest of tourism and the economy in Noosa.”

Current Councillor Amelia Lorentson, who is also the Council observer on the Tourism Noosa board, told Noosa Today this week that her dual roles made it difficult for her to comment at this stage, but she said: “What I can tell you is that I agree that there is going to be explosion over this, and it’s going to get worse before it gets better. But, as we’ve seen before in Council, sometimes the best outcomes come after conflict.”

Being a former councillor, Vivien Griffin could be more explicit. “Quite frankly I was gob-smacked”, she told Noosa Today. “This has come out of the blue, well after the first round of budget consultation, and apparently without evidence or advice.”

Like many others from the industry itself, Ms Griffin’s detailed submission to Council did not hold back: “The proposed change exhibits no understanding or valuing of the extraordinary and innovative partnership which has been nurtured by previous councils and Tourism Noosa over two decades. It was the tourism industry which approached the Abbot council, seeking the levy as a way of building a sustainable tourism industry enabling certainty in investment. A partnership emerged in which Council collected and disbursed funds while fulfilling an overall quality control role on behalf of its community ... The change from collecting funds via a levy versus bundling them up in general rates has enormous significance, since the Local Government Act specifically requires that levy funds be used for the purpose described in the Budget documents. Funds collected via general rates go into general revenue and have no such protection. No reason has been given for the proposed change.”

Over the past five years, the Tourism and Economic Levy has raised about $3 million a year from applicable rate payers, such as tourism and commercial businesses, and now from short stay houses and AirBnBs, of which $2.52M a year has been used to fund Tourism Noosa, whose primary function is to market the tourism offerings of its 970 members to the

rest of Australia and to the world. In the Noosa Shire, accommodation and food services is the largest employer, generating 3,647 (or twice the state average at 15 percent) local jobs in 2019-20. And this does not include the multiplier effect of tourism and hospitality support services and supply chains. The importance of the industry to our local economy cannot be over-estimated.

According to Richard Stevens, the removal of the legislated special levy will also remove the protection of how funds are directed to tourism promotion, compromising transparency and adding a level of complexity to Council’s financial management of the funds.

While some councillors were this week touting the line that the developing stoush

would be quickly resolved once the tourism industry realized that the changes were not designed to diminish Tourism Noosa funding, others expressed disillusionment at what was either an epic fail in communications or a blatant power grab that threatened a successful working relationship between local government and industry.

Perhaps the most offensive line in Council’s draft budget was this one: “Tourism promotion and economic development activities have evolved into core Council business.”

When and how did that happen, tourism operators were asking? And how did Council plan to manage their businesses? The word “arrogance” was getting plenty of airplay.

As Vivien Griffin wrote: “Council is asking

the tourism sector to trust them and believe that the same funds will be disbursed in the future. In effect, Council is proposing to turn an equal partner into a supplicant, which must come cap in hand for uncertain funding dependent on the whim of Council. You cannot manage an effective destination management organisation on this basis. Council is asking the industry to accept a second-rate solution, when a first-rate approach has been successfully working for over two decades. Indeed, why on earth should the industry trust council when it makes decisions of this magnitude without consulting with the major parties affected by the change? While this council may give good faith commitments on disbursement of funds, there is no guarantee that future councils will do the same. Again, such uncertainty does not encourage serious future investment in the sector.”

Late on Tuesday, Council CEO Brett de Chastel defended council’s process while sounding a conciliatory note: “We’re one of a small number of councils that puts its draft budget out for community feedback, and on June 16 when we’ve absorbed that feedback we’ll report on it. In the meantime, we’ll be discussing the issues with Tourism Noosa, but it’s important that everyone realises that the existing funding agreement for $2.52 million will not be changed.”

While not every resident of Noosa believes that tourism is the goose that laid the golden egg, for more than 20 years a solid working relationship between Council and the industry has provided checks and balances to ensure that the visitor and resident experience can co-exist.

Let’s hope that relationship has been strained rather than severed.

Wage bill warning

By Alan Lander Former Noosa mayor Noel Playford has ripped into the council for its “scary” proposal to further increase staff costs by eight per cent.

Mr Playford was mayor of Noosa Shire from 1988-1997 and was re-elected for the 20142016 to head the interim post-de-amalgamation council.

He was widely credited for imposing strict fiscal management to ensure Noosa could again successfully operate its own council following de-amalgamation.

He has remained tight-lipped about the council’s proposed Budget so far - until now.

“I’ve shut up for long enough - but now I have to speak out,” he said.

Mr Playford said council’s reported figures on staff numbers was “misleading” as it did not include temporary and project staff. Figures as at December 2020 showed it had recruited an extra 40 staff.

“Seventeen of them were added during the preceding six months, and many of the remainder were extended by the CEO, despite having been ‘temporary’ for up to four years,” Mr Playford said.

“The proposed Budget provides for an increase in staff costs of $3 million or 8% over the current budget.

“While they say enterprise agreement and workers’ comp increases have to be covered, these are nowhere near that figure.

“No information has been provided about how many additional employees are proposed, but the increase in staff costs is far higher than at any time in the history of Noosa Council.”

Mr Playford said 1.6 FTE project staff had been hired for a Transport Strategy, with their tenure extended from two to 4.5 years.

“Has anyone seen any results yet?” he said.

“And we got a principal strategic planner for three years to develop the Noosa Plan - that’s fair enough - but it just keeps getting extended. The person is still there,” he said.

“Ratepayers are entitled to ask whether this is the result of empire building by staff, or simply adding more staff in a vain attempt to combat inefficient operations - and whether elected members or staff are actually in control.

“We have a problem, Noosa. That’s obvious when the council annual reports [also] show that the outdoor and depot staffing has reduced in the last five years from 97 to 93.

“These are the people who get out and about doing the physical work, like keeping the public areas up to scratch, filling the potholes, cleaning blocked drains, fixing footpaths and all those things that add up to service to the community.

“Most of the staff increase has gone towards additional admin staff, many of them supposedly ‘temporary fixed term’ appointments, most of which keep on going far past when the ‘project’ should have finished.”

Mr Playford said he didn’t expect the four new councillors elected just last year to “have a handle on these - and the other three just nod it through”.

“But it’s scary stuff - it’s treading a slippery slope.

“If you don’t run a tight ship, ratepayers will pay for it. A council can only perform if it’s run efficiently.”

Former Noosa Mayor Noel Playford Mr Playford said he believed more than 50% of staff still did not live in the shire, as so many remained from positions in the amalgamation into Sunshine Coast Regional Council.

“Many of them don’t understand Noosa values and our way of life.”

“They have some really good staff, and unfortunately we had to make so many others redundant (in 2014). We had some good staff we wanted to [bring] back, but we weren’t allowed to bring them,” he said.

Mr Playford also said council was heading into a world of pain on the short-term accommodation issue.

“Noosa Council is limited in what it can do,” he said.

“It’s going to cost them significantly in limited resources: significant in terms of residents, time, money and legal fights.

“And the state has simply ignored the problem.”

Showground upgrade lag State and federal governments have promised almost $164,000 to upgrade the Pomona Showgrounds, but the Noosa Council threatens to unravel the investment plan by not providing a $30,000 grant in time to clinch the deal to fund installation of floodlights for the main arena.

A cash-strapped Noosa Show Society is prepared to tip in more than $55,000 of its own funds to an overall $250,000 budget for enhanced show ring lighting and major improvements to the Iris Maher Food Hall, but may be obliged to return $85,675 to the federal government if that money can’t be spent by 30 June. The federal funding represents half the cost of the lighting improvements.

Show society president Charlie Pattison said the $85,675 grant was conditional on matching funding coming from the show society. He said the society committed $55,000 and sought the remaining $30,000 from a grant from Noosa Council but the use of Commonwealth Funding was time sensitive and he was told this week a decision on the Council grant allocation had been pushed back until midJuly.

Mr Patterson said acquittal of the Commonwealth money by the end of the financial year was a condition of the unexpected windfall to the show society from the government’s $20 million Regional Agricultural Show Development Grants Program.

“The grant offer was a godsend to the society, which suffered a revenue shortfall because the 2020 show had to be cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic,” he said.

After failing to acquire a $30,000 contribution in the council grants round that closed in August last year the show society is hoping a change of heart emerges from the current round of Noosa Council grants which closed April this year.

“We had a meeting with Mayor Clare Stewart about this and also about how sporting clubs and other organisations don’t get a fair

Meanwhile Mr Pattison has sought an extension of time before the call-in of unspent money comes from the federal government.

In a further blow to the show society’s strategic planning, Noosa Council has stalled a Pomona Showgrounds Masterplan that the 2018 Noosa Council Sports and Recreation Strategy recommended should proceed.

Mr Pattison said The Pomona plan was to

have occurred within the same timeframe as masterplans for sports and recreation facilities at Tewantin and Cooroy. Both these have been completed and adopted by the council, while the Pomona plan languishes in the preliminary consultation stages and Mr Pattison said he had lost faith in the process.

“The Noosa Trails Masterplan, which the council endorsed, recommends that the Pomona Showgrounds be the place where horse riders using the trails can stable their horses overnight,” he said.

“The same stabling facilities could be used in the event of a major disaster, such as the 2019 Noosa bushfires when those fleeing the flames congregated at the showgrounds with their farm animals and pets. An evaluation of the district’s disaster preparedness following the fires revealed inadequate facilities to meet the food distribution needs of evacuees or of disaster management crews that might use the showground as a base in the case of big emergencies.”

Recently the show society was advised that it had been successful in obtaining a $78,000 grant to improve the Iris Maher Food Hall at the showgrounds, which could be used as a meals and food preparation centre in an emergency. The money was made available under the provisions of the joint Commonwealthstate Bushfires Recovery Program and the arena lighting was to play a key role in emergency operations and safety.

The proposed arena lighting, now in doubt, could be used to illuminate an area for emergency landing of helicopters at night in addition to improving safety at the grounds and allow for more evening events during the annual show and at other times, Mr Pattison said.

“All we are asking is for a leg-up from the council to assist us with our forward planning and for $30,000 for lighting to supplement the funding we are getting from other levels of government.”

DV victims to benefit

By Margaret Maccoll SunnyKids Cooroy Family Support Centre have high hopes the ‘Mingle with the Mayor’ Ball will raise $60,000 or more enabling them to double their capacity.

SunnyKids is the major beneficiary of proceeds from the Ball to be held at the Sofitel Noosa Resort on 31 July.

The domestic and family violence service provides 8000 nights of emergency accommodation as well as counselling and support services to local families each year.

SunnyKids general manager Kathleen Hope said the service could expand its operations from three to five days a week for 12 months with an extra $60,000 in funds.

She said $80,000 would enable them to additionally run an after hours crisis centre.

“This is very exciting for us,” Ms Hope said.

“This region has a great need for DV services. We’ve had an increase of 48 per cent of referrals in the last year in our region alone,” she said.

Mayor Clare Stewart said Council was very aware of the need for this cause.

“Where do you turn if you don’t have that support network of friends and family. This could save a life. It could save a kid’s life.”

TV personality and anti-DV campaigner Kay McGrath, who will be MC at the ball, said the money raised would make a big difference to providing early intervention programs.

“Don’t think it’s not happening in your neighbourhood,” she said. “Statistics are showing 10 women a week are hospitalised and one woman a week is killed in Australia.”

“It can happen anywhere. It can be subtle.

It’s not just black eyes and broken jaws. More and more we’re hearing about coercive control.

“Hannah Clarke and Alison Baden Clay were living in fear, being isolated, manipulat-

Ms McGrath said it was the children that were often the collateral victims of DV but giving them the support they needed could prevent them becoming damaged adults.

She urged residents to contribute to ridding the community of DV by opening their wallets, volunteering, learning more about the problem and reaching out to neighbours when they

suspected they were suffering.

Cr Stewart said tickets to the Ball had sold out in a couple of days but anyone wanting to contribute financially could buy a raffle ticket for one of the wonderful prizes donated by local businesses which include a 1.2 carat diamond and Peugeot Django 150 scooter.

Leaving a footprint behind

By Abbey Cannan Australia’s first indigenous ophthalmic surgeon is celebrating the hundreds of successful operations since opening his own private practice in Noosa one year ago.

As a proud Yuggera and Biri-Gubba man, Associate Professor Kristopher Rallah-Baker has made a permanent footprint in Noosa with his Sunshine Coast Ophthalmologists practice at Noosa.

“I am amazed at how quickly our first year has gone,“ he said.

“In that time we have delivered hundreds of successful operations to the people of Noosa and surrounds, fully renovated our rooms and delivered care to the highest standard.

“I am very proud of the team here at Sun-

Sunshine Coast Ophthalmologists team at Noosa celebrates their first year anniversary. shine Coast Ophthalmologists at Noosa and am grateful for the warm welcome and support from the community.“

Dr Rallah-Baker said the recent National Reconciliation Week theme of ’More than a word. Reconciliation takes action’ was important as it highlighted the reality of what could be achieved by working together.

“If it was not for the hard work of my parents and support of my school and University I would not have the privilege or being able to deliver the highest quality ophthalmic services to the people of Noosa and surrounds,“ he said.

“It was a collaborative effort between both Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians that helped turn that young Aboriginal boy from Holland Park into who I am today and I hope that many others are able to dream the impossible and achieve their dreams.“ Practice manager Naomi Line said the team

was so privileged to work alongside Australia’s first Indigenous Ophthalmologist.

“Proud is the first word that pops into mind,“ Ms Line said.

“Kris and I had a clear vision from day one, and to see it come together is a wonderful feeling. Our first year has flown by. It has been a truly positive and rewarding experience. We are so lucky to have the hardworking, friendly team we do. They have helped SCO become the successful business it is.“ Kris said he intended to be in Noosa for his entire career.

“Our staff all live locally on the Sunshine Coast and we believe in supporting the local community. Noosa deserves the best of care being delivered by locals to locals.“

Microscope a sight for sore eyes at Noosa Hospital The latest microscope designed for delicate eye procedures has arrived at Noosa Hospital, giving locals access to safer surgery and more accurate results.

The $200,000 ZEISS Lumera microscope arrived on site last week and will be used for most ophthalmology procedures, particularly cataracts and pterygiums.

Noosa Hospital Opthalmologist, Associate Professor Kris Rallah-Baker said the ZEISS microscope represented a huge step forward.

“When we put in a lens a lot of the time it needs to be at a certain angle. Previously that was a manual process. But with this microscope, I pre-operatively measure the eye in my room and that information is plugged into the machine on the day of surgery via

USB to give me the exact reading of where that lens angle needs to be,” Dr Rallah-Baker said.

“In ophthalmology, 95% of operations are done under the microscope so this will make a big difference. We’ve got a large elderly population in Noosa too and I see a lot of patients with cataracts so safer, quicker surgery can lead to better outcomes for them.”

Chief Executive Officer Justin Greenwell said the new microscope was a great ‘next step’ for ophthalmology at Noosa Hospital.

“I’m so pleased that after launching ophthalmology services at Noosa Hospital just over 18 months ago, we are already progressing with new technology for our local patients.

We’re always looking at ways to invest in the latest technology with the aim of giving the

best patient outcomes,” Mr Greenwell said.

Assoc. Prof. Rallah-Baker said the new microscope also features a surgical assistant attachment arm used by a medical assistant or nurse during eye surgery, as well as a large screen showing the operation itself. These additional features enable up close teaching of staff and medical students.

“It brings Noosa Hospital up to a gold standard in terms of ophthalmology surgery and we’re now able to deliver cataract surgery equal to much larger facilities, for example those in Brisbane - and the people of Noosa deserve that,” Dr Rallah-Baker said.

The ZEISS Lumera microscope was used for the first time at Noosa Hospital on Friday 4th June.

Stars billing for festival Mention the word flute to any Australian, and the name Jane Rutter immediately springs to mind.

Jane is a classical music trailblazer known for her onstage warmth. She brilliantly conveys passion, sparkling technique and elegance of expression through her beautiful flute playing.

Jane is the star attraction in a one-off performance for Noosa Alive!

The world-famous flautist takes the stage alongside Noosa Orchestra and the Sunshine Coast Oriana Choir, with conductors Antoni Bonetti AM and Fay Baker OAM, in a two-hour concert spectacular for flute, choir and orchestra.

The eclectic, egalitarian programme, touted as “sacred, serene, furious, festive”, is certain to appeal to all musical tastes from serious Baroque music to Celtic with a light-hearted nod to ABBA. A self-described “bel canto” flute player, (Italian translation: “beautiful singing”), Rutter said she was delighted to be playing on stage in Noosa with a choir supported by an orchestra.

“I love the sound of flute and voices playfully competing, and harmonising, it’s beautiful, they belong together,” Rutter said.

“The program is based around dance, in fact, an alternative title could be: ‘Dancing with the Flute’.

“We wanted to create a program to celebrate an end to COVID lockdown. As a young teenager I looked up to Antoni Bonetti. Together we were founding members of the now celebrated Sydney Youth Orchestra, so it’s a thrill to be working with Toni and his baton after all this time.

“Of the woodwind instruments, the flute is the closest to the voice in sound and breath.

Voice and the flute have a similar vibration, and the flute, when played well, is like singing musically through the instrument.”

Knighted by France (chevalier des arts et lettres), Rutter divides her time between Paris

Oriana Choir with the orchestra. and Sydney, but says performing in Noosa is a kind of ‘homecoming’.

A couple of decades ago, Jane lived with her young family in Queensland.

“I’ve been to Noosa many times, and had a kind of honeymoon there when first married,” Rutter said.

“My son was in the womb then, now he’s an adult and an accomplished musician. In more recent years I’ve played at local music festivals, The J, and Berardo’s.”

Despite playing alongside music giants and legendary contemporaries such as Pavarotti, Carreras, Michael Crawford, Slava and Leonard Grigoryan, Teddy Tahu-Rhodes, Peter Cousens, Tina Arena and more, Rutter remains very down-to-earth. It would seem the French aspiration to egalitarianism (in all of its cultural expressions) suits Jane, a ‘classical disrupter’, down to the ground.

“I’m a classical musician for all mankind, I’m not a snob. I believe it is the birthright of everyone to enjoy fine music,“ she said.

Of the July 17 Noosa performance, Rutter said, “It will be like wrapping my arms around

A free shuttle bus service, running from 8.45am until late, will do a loop of Nambour, picking up from Sunshine Coast Council’s Nambour administration office car park at the Bury Street entrance and the Nambour train station, and dropping show-goers right at the showground’s front gates.

Sunshine Coast Council Community Portfolio Councillor David Law said he was pleased to see adjustments made for the health and safety of show-goers, and he was especially proud that access improvements had been made to the Nambour Showground’s Main Pavilion.

“Thanks to the installation of a new passenger lift in the Main Pavilion, the Schools on Show, Art and Photography exhibitions are now accessible for people who have mobility issues and for families with prams,” Cr Law said.

“This improvement is one of many new exciting features people will enjoy at the Sunshine Coast Agricultural Show this year.

“So please make time to support the Show and remember to be COVID-Safe at all times.

This includes maintaining social distancing and washing your hands often. Please stay home if you’re unwell and get tested if you have any COVID symptoms.”

For those interested in helping out, the show is also looking for community groups, schools, or volunteers to assist with gates, ticketing, crossing supervisors and more.

Volunteers who work more than four hours at the showgrounds will be given free entry, and community groups may receive a donation from the Sunshine Coast Agricultural Show Society.

Sunshine Coast Agricultural Show Manager Penny Walsh said show organisers had worked closely with Queensland Health over the past 12 months to host a show that had appropriate COVID-19 measures.

“We have done everything possible to make sure we get it right and ensure that Sunshine Coast families and visitors will have a safe and fun experience at the show,” Ms Walsh said.

“We have rearranged the layout of the showgrounds to allow for social distancing.

“All the unique Sunshine Coast Show traditions our community knows and loves, such as our much-loved competitions, animals, food, sideshow alley, showbags and entertainment will be back.

“We are so excited to bring back the V8 Super utes, monster trucks and wood chopping events as well as the fireworks and laser light show which will light up the sky over three nights.

“And to everyone’s great delight, we’re expecting the best riders in Australia to participate in the show jumping competition.”

COVID-Safety also includes online ticket sales. While tickets at the gate will cost $10 for students and $18 for adults, those who purchase their tickets online will receive a 20 per cent discount and will also be able to access the fast-track lane at the gates for streamlined entry to the show.

Children under five years are free.

Accessible parking is available, however other onsite parking will be limited, so visitors are encouraged to make use of the public car

Twin buskers Fiona and Viena, 10.

Busking in the sunshine

By Margaret Maccoll A musician all his life Carl Beck turned judge last weekend at the Noosa Busking Championship and marvelled at the talent on show at the event.

“This is far superior to anything we’ve had before,“ he said. “The first year we were feeling our way. This year it’s gone to another level.“ Organisers Anne and Tony Oxley said the championship, now in its fourth year, had also attracted a larger field of entertainers and a greater diversity. She agreed the performers were top rate but it would be hard to beat their greatest success to date, Tones and I, who performed in Noosa in 2018 and has gone on to achieve international acclaim.

There were 63 buskers performing along Gympie Terrace, Noosaville, on Saturday, including a dance troupe and balancing act along with singers and musicians. Crowds filled Gympie Terrace on a weekend of spectacular winter weather to listen and cheer on the performers.

Anne said four judges roamed the street, each selecting their top three choices to perform at the finals on Sunday with the winners invited to the national busking championships in Cooma in November.

Jack Raymond was very excited to take out first place in the open category and an invitation to perform at the national finals against other regional finalists. Having moved to Noosa two years ago from Victoria Jack has been “gigging around Noosa“ outside work hours, often busking at Noosa Junction on a Friday night.

“I started playing guitar as a kid and started taking it up seriously four years ago,“ he said. Jack describes his sound as “blues with a smile“.

First place winners in the Secondary category was FrankandLouis and it wasn’t the first win for the young brothers. Having only begun busking two years ago the boys in 2020 won first place in the Australian Busking Championship in the secondary school category in its online competition and in 2019 placed second in the primary school category. “It’s fun,“ the boys said. “We love it.“ The boys busk regularly in Caloundra and at the Eumundi markets but it isn’t the coin that drives them. “It’s more about the passion than the money,“ they said.

The brothers also won third place in the People’s Choice Award and received the Gympie Music Muster Award providing them an invitation to perform on the main stage at the festival.

First place in the Primary category went to guitarist extraordinaire Jake Parkes and the People’s Choice Award was won by Ruby & Jarrod.

The weekend buskers ranged in age from teens to seniors and everyone had a story that led them to music.

The Shoplifters started playing together about six years ago, raising $5000-$6000 a year for children’s charities.

“We’re just a whole lot of people from a lot of different places,“ band member Robert Swales said. The band used to play at the shops at Coolum where they “lifted the spirits of shop goers“, hence the name. They can now be seen playing from 7-9am Wednesday and Friday at Tickle Park, Coolum Beach.

Jimmy O’Dea, 72, was the youngest of 10

children. All of them were musical, his wife, Christie, said. Jimmy played 178 games for St Kilda in the VFL before moving the Noosa. This was Jimmy’s fourth entry in the busking championship. “He enjoys it, rather than playing in the garage,“ Christie said.

The Flying Buskers travelled from the Redlands to play in the event. A member of several ukulele groups Jane Milward began travelling across western Queensland about seven years ago to busk and raise money for The Flying Doctors Service. A year later she was joined by group members who, as The Flying Buskers, have together played and raised about $12,000 for the organisation.

Backpacker Gigi from Israel had been working on farms to support himself until nine months ago a surfing accident on Noosa’s Main Beach left him with a couple of fractured bones and ended his farming activities. Having never sung before but unable to do physical about Gigi picked up a guitar and started busking. “I believe everything happens for a reason,“ he said.

Ten-year-old twins Fiona and Viena travelled from Brisbane with their father Jonathan to perform in the busking championships.

The girls have been busking for the past three years, Jonathan said. “They just want to share their music with everyone,“ he said.

Naming his act after his favourite animal, the Bluebone Groper, the barefoot musician, Bluebone, moved to Noosa about three weeks ago from the Kimberleys.

“I always wanted to come here,“ he said.

His arrival having coincided with the busking championship Bluebone was happy to join in and hopes to support himself in Noosa through his music.

The locals came together

By Margaret Maccoll Perfect winter weather and exceptional talent drew thousands of people to Gympie Terrace over the weekend for the combined Noosa Come Together Festival and Noosa Busking Championships.

Come Together Festival organiser Oz Bayldon said the huge turnout made the event the most popular since it was first staged in 2016 when a group of locals joined together to raise enough funds to ensure the Sailability sailing program for children and adults with disabilities would continue on the Noosa River.

Oz has bigger plans for next year’s festival that include more activities for people with disabilities.

He said he expected proceeds from this year’s fundraiser would continue to cover the costs to run Sailability and to sponsor two horses to Sunshine Coast Riding for the Disabled (SCRDA).

SCRDA president Carolyn Neville said 130

people with disabilities currently attended the riding for the disabled program that is operated by about the same number of volunteers and 22 horses. The only paid staff being a horse manager and part time finance officer.

“From an assessment it is determined what type of program would suit them,“ she said.

Carolyn said people with a range of disabilities including physical, intellectual and visual attended with those in wheelchairs accommodated in their carriage drive program.

“We have young kids who are non-verbal and they start to speak,“ she said. “It helps with core strength. It’s a great therapy.“ SCRDA also operates an equine-assistedlearning program at its Verrierdale property to assist people with anxiety and stress related issues.

The Come Together Festival provides an affordable day out for local families and is enabled with the help of Rotary, sponsors including Laguna Realty and Coast 2 Coast Earthmoving and a team of volunteers.

Rare Hinterland acreage A classic Noosa Hinterland acreage has been offered to the market for the first time in more than 35 years.

42 Lukes Road, Cooroy Mountain, has 43.22ha of cleared fertile land and, with spectacular 360-degree views from Mount Cooroy to Pomona, Ninderry and beyond, the opportunities are seen as endless.

The property is being marketed by Ray White Commercial Noosa and Sunshine Coast North Property Consultant Tracey Ryan and Director Paul Butler.

“With increasing numbers of people migrating north to the Noosa region, with plans to move away from densely populated cities, the Noosa Hinterland market continues to show strong growth,” Ms Ryan said.

“Historically low stock levels are further creating a lack of choice for buyers and this property offers the ultimate rural lifestyle, combining bush and beach, with easy access to bustling Cooroy and cosmopolitan Hastings Street.

“The four dams and house water are fed from pristine springs straight from Cooroy Mountain and the fenced gardens surround the imposing two-storey, five-bedroom, twobathroom “Grand Dame” home.

“In the foothills of Cooroy Mountain, this asset is in one of Noosa Hinterland’s most sought-after localities just 20 minutes to Noosa River and 25 minutes to Hastings Street and Noosa Main Beach. The bustling hinterland town of Cooroy is only seven minutes from the front gate.”

This asset is in one of Noosa Hinterland’s most sought-after localities.

Sunshine Coast attracts national cannabis conference The United in Compassion (UIC) Australian Medicinal Cannabis Symposium on the Sunshine Coast is expected to attract over 400 delegates with an estimated economic value of over $600,000 to the region.

Visit Sunshine Coast in partnership with Sunshine Coast Council via the Business Events Assistance Program successfully secured the event which will be held from 13 to 15 August at the Sunshine Coast Convention Centre.

A terminal illness that created acute, unrelieved pain for her son, prompted Lucy Haslam to take up the cause of legalising medicinal cannabis, culminating in the three-day conference to be held on the Sunshine Coast, which will see experts examine the issue and create pathways for legislative change.

In addition to a two-day symposium featuring international experts in the field, there will be a trade exhibition, a nurses’ conference, a health professionals’ event, and a gala dinner.

“We are expecting this to be a very powerful event, attracting health care professionals, industry representatives, the legal fraternity and interested members of the general public, who are often the most passionate advocates for sensible change,” Ms Haslam said.

“I bring experts together from around the globe to share their knowledge and experience and hopefully drive wider acceptance of medicinal cannabis. We need to keep reform in the spotlight, as sadly this is still a very political issue with an enormous amount of vested interest and interference.

“There are a vast range of problems with the current system that will be addressed at the symposium, including drug driving issues, high costs for patients, and the difficulty with access for veterans and first responders, especially those with PTSD. “We are looking forward to welcoming delegates from around Australia. I’m sure all those participating will appreciate the Sunshine Coast’s wonderful lifestyle and environment and help them focus on finding solutions to enable more Australians to access proven pain relief that can dramatically improve their lives.”

Visit Sunshine Coast’s Business Events Manager, Maureen Brennan, said the Symposium would be important to reflect the region’s suitability as a prime destination for medical and public interest related conferences.

“The Sunshine Coast has outstanding medical and educational institutions, with a renowned research and development sector, so conferences examining medical issues are a natural for us,” Ms Brennan said.

“We also have the advantage of an upgraded Sunshine Coast Airport, which has established direct air services from major city hubs such as Sydney, Canberra, Adelaide, Melbourne, and internationally with Auckland.

“Following the pandemic, there is increasing demand for conferences in areas which can offer a more open, less crowded environment, complemented by ease of access and high-quality facilities.”

JACK IRISH ABC TV, 8.30pm

As one of the best Aussie series of recent times, there’s trepidation as the much-loved crime series returns for its final hurrah tonight after two seasons and three telemovies. Following the titular troubled private investigator (an excellent Guy Pearce, left), Jack’s tragic past will finally be resolved in this four-part series starring a who’s who of Aussie actors. The story picks up three years after we last saw Jack, who is asked by Barry Tregear (Shane Jacobson) to help with an investigation.

SATURDAY

ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL SEVEN, 7.30pm

This manga adaptation was first announced in 2003 as a project for filmmaker James Cameron, but it took almost two decades for performance capture technologies to catch up to the Titanic director’s dream of a fully computer-generated lead character. Director Robert Rodriguez and actress Rosa Salazar (Bird Box) eventually gave life to the titular cyborg through motion-capture. Scientist Dr Dyson Ido (Christoph Waltz) discovers the cyborg lying in a scrapyard and revives her, naming her Alita after his late daughter. Despite Ido’s concerns about her safety, Alita takes to the streets of her post-apocalyptic home, determined to use her prodigious fighting skills to take on corrupt authorities.

MONDAY

9-1-1: LONE STAR SEVEN, 9pm

Handsome and oozing charisma, Rob Lowe leads the cast of this ostentatious and cheesy procedural disaster drama.

Arguably one of the most underrated actors of his generation, many will find it difficult to forget his goofball role on cult satire Parks and Recreation, but his turn here as Owen, a perfectionist Manhattan firefighter relocated to Texas, is unique and entertaining – often accidentally. Season two kicks off tonight, with the coronavirus pandemic embedded into the narrative. But a global health crisis still has nothing on the series’ over-the-top emergencies. Sadly, female lead Liv Tyler doesn’t return, but excitement awaits with a 9-1-1 crossover in two weeks.

There are myriad ways to ring in the weekend, but unless you are tuning into Gardening Australia with a vino in hand, you are probably doing it the wrong way.

Is there anything more life affirming and relaxing than learning about nature with a group of can-do folk from the comfort of your couch – or bed? Not really. Anchored by passionate host Costa Georgiadis, this long-running series is a lesson in finding joy and purpose with nature, and it’s all very laidback. Tonight, Costa meets city gardeners who are utilising the street, Sophie creates a rainforest indoors, Clarence has tips on native climbers, and Millie explores the benefits of buying mature trees.

Seabird breeding decline

Community raises funds

By Abbey Cannan Sunshine Beach Real Estate and Sunshine Beach Surf Lifesaving Club joined forces to host a morning tea in support of those impacted by cancer.

Together they raised more than $5000 for Cancer Council with their Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea event on Thursday morning.

Sunshine Beach Real Estate principal Pip Covell said they loved hosting the event.

“It brings the community together for a very special cause,“ she said.

“It was a stunning morning, stunning setting and stunning outcome for our Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea. “We had the support of the team at the Surf Club, Sunshine Beach State High School, Gordon Macdonald from The Auction Group, Kellie from Tea Shop Noosa, and of course the whole community.“

The world’s largest database on seabird breeding success indicates long-term, hemisphere-scale changes in ocean health that require immediate action, according to a USC researcher.

USC Australia Professor of GlobalChange Ecology David Schoeman analysed the new database as it was developed over three years for a collaborative research paper, published overnight in leading journal Science.

The study found seabirds in the northern hemisphere were suffering greater reductions in breeding success and greater risks of breeding failure than those in the south, indicating that northern ocean systems were already under extreme pressure from climate change and other human impacts.

“It highlights for the first time the disparity in climate impacts, with northern oceans heavily impacted and needing urgent management responses, while proactive planning is still an option for the southern hemisphere to prevent future need for crisis management,” he said.

Professor Schoeman said seabirds were considered ‘sentinels’ of marine ecosystem health because their high metabolic rates made them very sensitive to periods of food stress. They also monitored the Earth’s seas as they rapidly responded to changes in ocean conditions, climate and stocks of fish and plankton.

The research, led by Dr William Sydeman of California’s Farallon Institute and involving 39 scientists from across 10 countries, examined annual breeding data for 58 seabird species at 46 sites across the globe, ranging from sub-polar to sub-tropical, between 1964 and 2018.

Breeding success was measured in terms of number of offspring fledged (raised to near independence) per nest.

USC Australia Professor of Global-Change Ecology David Schoeman.

Professor Schoeman said most at risk were seabirds that fed mainly on fish, possibly because of competition with fisheries, and seabirds that fed mainly at the surface of oceans.

He said surface-feeding seabirds were also susceptible to plastic ingestion which could play a role in declining breeding productivity.

“The trends in seabird productivity we found align with hemispheric differences in rates of temperature change and the frequency and intensity of marine heat waves, as well as different patterns of human use between the hemispheres,” he said. “From a management perspective, we found trouble in the north, but opportunities in the south.”

Professor Schoeman said there was scope for further research to examine the different ways in which breeding was succeeding or failing for particular species in particular locations.

Kokoda feat

St Andrew’s raised more than $15,000 for the Kokoda Youth Foundation.

It takes teamwork, resilience and mental strength to win in Australia’s toughest team endurance event, the Kokoda Challenge, not once or twice, but four times.

Summoning every ounce of those three key qualities, more than 250 St Andrew’s Anglican College staff, students and parents competed in the gruelling event on Saturday, with students from as young as 9 years old through to 18 participating in the 15km, 30km and 48km challenges.

Teams from the Peregian Springs based school took out the overall win in all three of the school events, including teacher Alex Austin and his team of four students - Harry, Luca, Cory and Jack - who broke the 48km record by

OUR ECONOMY IS ON TRACK TO COME BACK

Australia’s economy is on track to come back. In fact, our economy outperformed all major advanced economies in 2020. In the second half of 2020, it grew at the fastest pace on record and there are now more people in work than before the pandemic.

CONTINUING OUR COMEBACK To build upon the progress we’ve made, the next steps in the plan provide more support for individuals, families and businesses to help secure the economy and create more jobs.

JOB CREATION IS ON TRACK Over the next 10 years, many more local jobs will be created and secured through investment in roads, rail and community infrastructure.

More homes will be built in more communities thanks to HomeBuilder and the New Home Guarantee.

More training will be available through JobTrainer. And there’ll be new apprenticeships, traineeships and more places in higher education.

And there’ll be more opportunities for families to access work with more affordable childcare.

businesses to invest, to grow and to create more jobs.

We’re improving employment services so that employers and job seekers are more easily matched.

And our $1.2 billion investment in digital infrastructure, skills, and incentives means that more businesses in communities right across Australia can be part of the thriving digital economy.

LOWER TAXES & GREATER SUPPORT FOR MORE AUSTRALIANS

We’re supporting hard hit industries such as aviation, tourism and international education.

Tax cuts for 10 million low and middle income earners will put more money in their pockets to spend at local businesses, creating more economic activity and more jobs.

And continuing tax incentives, such as the Instant Asset Write-off, to encourage

It’s a plan that will not only help Australia come back, but come back better than ever.

SMALL BUSINESSES ARE ON TRACK

20 minutes in a time of 6 hours 19 minutes.

Alex has now competed in the challenge seven times and taken home the winning trophy four times, but it’s the relationships built in preparing for an event like this and seeing how the students grow that he really enjoys.

“I’ve been really lucky to have been a part of some great teams over the years and the last three years in particular have been made up of a core group of students who have been unbelievably determined to push themselves to the absolute limit,” he said.

“Their determination is what fuels the fire.

I love the enthusiasm that the students show towards training and competing in this challenge. You get to build a real connection with the team and their families throughout the whole process!”

This is the twelfth year the school has entered the Kokoda Challenge and has become a significant part of the College’s personal capacity building culture.

“I think it’s really important for students to have a crack at something like this as it teaches you how to deal with adversity and forces you to use mental strength that sometimes you didn’t think you possessed,” Mr Austin said.

“Everyone is really pushed outside their comfort zone and it’s awesome to see teams encouraging each other and working together to get to the finish.

“This challenge is so much more than just a physical test; you don’t always know the problems you’ll encounter so the mindset it teaches you to overcome these challenging situations can be used in different facets in life.”

At St Andrew’s, this event provides students of all abilities and passions an opportunity to really push themselves out of their comfort zone and see what can be achieved with a bit of grit, determination and great friends by your side.

When piano teacher Clare Hannaway, was approached by Year 4 student Evie to enter, she knew it was an opportunity not to be missed.

With encouragement to find three more willing students, Evie recruited fellow music loving students Summer, August and Lilah who were all excited by the challenge of competing for the first time.

Inspired by their team motto ‘Courage will get us to the starting line, but only together as a team will we cross the finish line’ and their favourite team training song ‘The Hamster Dance Song’ - the team committed to training with a goal to complete the 15km course in under 4 hours.

“We wanted to get to the starting line with an open mind and to enjoy the experience, each other’s company and entertain the other participants with our singing along the way,” Ms Hannaway said.

“We have been really motivated with our fundraising for the Kokoda Youth Program and we are fortunate to have a big support team behind us who are proud of our every step. In fact, some training sessions we had up to 14 people along for the ride. It’s been incredible having the support from parents and siblings helping us complete our training sessions all together as one big (mostly happy) family.”

St Andrew’s raised more than $15,000 for the Kokoda Youth Foundation, who run life skills programs for Australian teens who come from all walks of life and every segment of society.

Student run against DV A group of 23 Year 10 students at St Teresa’s Catholic College chose to participated in the CEO Challenge - Darkness to Daylight (D2D) event last month and learnt a lot about domestic violence along the way. This event is aimed at raising awareness of and funds to stamp out Domestic and Family Violence (DFV) in Australia. The main event is an overnight run/ walk, usually held in Brisbane, however due to COVID it was not able to be run this year.

Not wanting to miss an opportunity, the College worked with Noosa Council to create an alternate event locally that still gave the experience of the overnight run. The event was held along the Noosa River on Wednesday 26 May, the culmination of a 10-week program, that included education about DFV, physical

training, and completing more than 450 random acts of kindness.

Each student ran on behalf of a DFV survivor, a person whose story they have read and who kept them inspired throughout the night. Students were lucky enough to have the founder of Darkness 2 Daylight, Robert Reed join them for the pre-run vigil and run with them for a period of time. On the same night, it was poignant that the lunar eclipse occurred in the sky above as students were trying to eclipse Domestic and Family Violence in Australia. We are incredibly proud of this group of students who collectively ran over 1300kms, made a difference in the community with their random acts of kindness and raised in excess of $7500 towards the cause.

Students train at Mt Coolum national park before the run.

Open mind, open heart at Good Shepherd In these uncertain times it is easy to forget the ongoing struggles others may be experiencing.

Care Week at Good Shepherd Lutheran College is an annual event used to promote growth mindset through care and love for others and this year was no different with daily fundraising activities highlighting the vital role charities play in the community.

Bloomhill Cancer Care is a centre for vital integrated cancer care and the beneficiary of over $1000 from a huge egg and bacon muffin drive.

They are dedicated to enhancing the qual-

ity of life for people living with and beyond cancer, through practical, physical and emotional support and empowerment through education and awareness.

They will also be supported by a group of dedicated teachers who have taken up the challenge to crochet beanies, needed by cancer patients through the colder months.

Good Shepherd Lutheran College Councillor Marg Hall said, “Care Week raises much needed funds through a variety of activities.”

“The Biggest Morning Tea not only raised close to $500 for the Cancer Council, it was also a lovely opportunity for staff to catch

up for a chat whilst enjoying delicious baked goodies.

“This year, the theme Open Mind, Open Heart encourages us to adopt a growth mindset through care and love for others.

“We encourage students to not only purchase a delicious cupcake or grab a sausage at the sizzle raising funds for Guide Dogs Queensland, we encourage them to look closely at their community and recognise the need for support, both near and far.”

The week finished with a Blue for Burundi free-dress day. Close to $1500 will be donated to the Australian Lutheran World Service

project empowering Burundi rural communities take charge of their own development and build strong community leaders.

Random acts of kindness were also promoted within the College community too.

Younger students enjoyed the opportunity to catch up with their buddies from Senior years at the much-loved Teddy Bears Picnic whilst others grabbed a friend and joined in ‘Dance in the Square’.

With the focus of the week encouraging students to look around, listen to others and care for others, the message was obviously heard, resulting in close to $3500 being raised.

Save the coconut trees I’m writing to share my concerns about the coconut trees on Noosa Main Beach as I believe they will “given the chop“. Unfortunately many people in today’s Noosa community do not know the history of the trees; nor appreciate the aesthetics of these trees in building and promoting Noosa over the years. They were planted when Noosa was in its infancy as a tourist destination and have grown with Noosa as it has turned into today’s “metropolis“ with their image highlighted and part of the backdrop in many photos and postcards of Noosa.

The trees have become an integral part of the Noosa image, especially from out at sea. But now after about 45 years, the trees have been deemed to have served their purpose and will be removed by Noosa Shire Council which has decided it’s too costly to maintain them once a year. Some people are saying but the trees are not indigenous of this area. My reply is neither are we! Come on folks, do not let this happen so have your say - complain to Council. Let’s save these trees! Thank you.

A question of values Your correspondent Peter Shortal (NT 28/05) implies that the lives of dolphins, whales, turtles and other sea creatures do not contribute to our economy and therefore shouldn’t be considered when it comes to safeguarding human lives in the surf. Aside from this being an absurd reason to continue to use inhumane and ineffective shark nets and drum lines one can easily see how following this to its logical conclusion can also be absurd. Based on economic contribution, PS should be happy that the TMR has only installed heavy vehicle advisory signs to warn people about the quarry trucks on the Kin Kin road (NT 28/05) instead of restricting their frequency, based, we guess, on the premise that children’s lives are economically worth less than the quarry trucks. Or maybe we can go to the other extreme to safe guard human lives and ban people from going into the water at all since many times more people drown each year than are injured by sharks. We should also ban cars, ladders, dogs, horses, honey bees, etc because these also kill many more people each year than sharks.There continues to be a completely unrealistic attitude of people about the risks of certain activities and about the value of non-human species for our continued survival.

It is clear, from any scientific point of view, that continuing to burn fossil fuels is by far the most hazardous activity in which we participate.

Yet, we continue. We certainly should be clever enough to get these values right.

Leave Hilton Terrace alone This is a reply to a recent readers letter. Hilton terrace is just fine the way it is! The council has done quite a bit of work lately. Leave it for the locals. Gympie terrace is also fine but we don’t need another one like it. At Hilton The end bit is for letting boats into the water. What’s wrong with some puddles, it’s tidal. Don’t go there if you don’t like it. Boats & houseboats always belong on rivers, they don’t all have to be flashy. I think Hilton Terrace is a beautiful peaceful spot!

Iceland experience I noted with interest the reference (The Editor’s Desk, 28 May 2021) to Noosa’s tourism boom and comparisons with Iceland’s tourism experience. I spent some time in Iceland last year just before the onslaught of Covid-19 forced a hasty return to Australia.

Iceland undoubtably benefited from the tourism boom and helped the country stabilise its economy following the 2008 banking crash. Some sources cite tourism as increasing by a staggering 444 per cent between 2010 and 2017, with about 2.2 million visitors arriving in 2017. Given that the nation’s population was only 350,000 it is not difficult to imagine the impact on local residents.

Reykjavik, like so many other popular tourist destinations (particularly in Europe) has seen its city centre “hollowed out”. Short-term apartment rentals in the centre of Reykjavik have pushed locals out of the market. Sound familiar? The impact on the residential housing market aside, many Icelanders are concerned about the associated destruction of the environment with off-road driving (shades of the vehicular pressure on Noosa North Shore / Rainbow Beach), litter, etc).

Submissions to Council on its coastal hazards adaptation plan are warning council that the threat to our coastal environment is as much from over visitation as it is from the threats from climate change. The constant push for more and more promotion (does Peregian Beach really need more promotion to add to the ever increasing traffic and parking congestion?) and the push for increasing numbers of tourists to the Shire is unsustainable.

It won’t be long before the industry kills the goose that lays the golden egg.

Restrictions for all In response to Fred Brown (NT 4/6), I would like to address the points you raise with a lit-

tle more clarity.

Firstly, the Noosa Draft Local Law on Short Stay Letting (SSL) applies to all forms of SSL: whole house and home-hosted. That’s fair isn’t it?

I am unable to address your mob rule, might is right, argument fully. Too lengthy a debate for this space. Suffice to say our whole society is built on accepting restrictions on all, which are aimed at protecting targetted groups: child-protection laws; seatbelts; .05 limits; smoking laws; pool fencing; building standards; environmental protections etc. SSL regulation is about protecting the residential amenity of all Noosa residents (and tourists), for the benefit of all. It expressly protects residents from having to routinely endure ‘wild parties til all hours’, which unfortunately currently occurs throughout Noosa in SSL businesses in residential neighbourhoods. Residential amenity and the residential value of homes, (people’s life-time investment) are currently being trashed by unregulated wholehouse letting. A group’s right to party should not be at the expense of residents’ rights to live, study, raise a family, fulfil work obligations, to be safe and to be able to sleep in their own homes. Sleep is a right, not a luxury, subject to the choices of the ever-changing, never ending parade of users of neighbouring SSL businesses.

I do not share your cavalier disregard for traditional, accommodation businesses. How is it fair for these businesses to be required to comply with expensive, detailed regulation and to compete on an unfair basis with unregulated SSL businesses? Many SSL businesses, as you note, contribute little to the community they profit from; destroy the residential amenity of the areas they operate in; contribute to the housing crisis by removing properties from the long-term letting pool; and frequently take their cheaply achieved (you say greedy) profits elsewhere.

You are right to raise the crucial community issue of volunteering. Noosa relies on its myriad volunteers: fire-fighters; community and health

services; ecology; tourism etc. As the permanent residential population shrinks - forced out by the exponential conversion of housing to SSL - there will be fewer volunteers available; services will suffer. How will they be replaced?

With approximately 5000 SSL properties and an estimated 50% of all residential properties capable of conversion to SSL - Noosa, is already, proportionately, the SSL capital of Australia, and possibly the world. Other regions are banning or stringently restricting SSL (particularly whole-house SSL). It is time for Noosa to restore balance. And yes, you are right Fred: there is nowhere for families and employees to live. Businesses are struggling to recruit and retain staff because of the housing crisis; as Council continues to approve conversion of homes to SSL with minimal to no regard for residential amenity and availability.

Council does indeed need to look at the big picture and determine a balanced and sustainable future for the Shire. Or is this Council going to go down in history as the Council that turned the world renowned Noosa into an unliveable, economically unsustainable SSL enclave? Was this what residents campaigned to “Free Noosa“ for?

I accept that home-hosted SSL is less problematic than whole-house SSL. Homehosted lobbyists should argue the distinction.

It would help their cause. And what does the draft-law require of home-hosts: to be registered subject to safety and suitability of the premises; adequate insurance; a contact person to handle queries and complaints; and to operate subject to a code of behaviour for guests, having regard to residential amenity.

Hardly draconian; perfectly reasonable; and a lot less onerous than the regulations applied to traditional accommodation businesses.

Businesses should be registered and regulated, particularly when they operate in such profusion in residential areas. Hardly a controversial proposition - so what’s the problem?

LIVE

We will rock you, again Mamma Mia, here I go again … the Sunshine Coast’s premiere vocal group, Oriana Choir, will present a night to remember in August with Dancing Queen, a tribute show featuring the best of ABBA and Queen.

It follows the Oriana Choir’s superb presentation of Mozart’s Requiem and Ola Gjeilo’s Sunrise Mass in May which saw near sell-out performances at Caloundra Event Centre and St John’s Cathedral in Brisbane.

That was a highlight in the storied career of this marvellous musical ensemble.

After a year in which the opportunity to be at a live performance of this quality, in such a special setting as St John’s Cathedral, was little more than wishful thinking.

However, Oriana’s concert was a much needed shot in the arm for culture-deprived choristers and audiences alike.

So, what’s next for this world-class, Sunshine Coast based choir of eighty-plus members?

As John Cleese would no doubt put it, it’s a case of ‘and now for something completely different.’

Just as aptly, it could be ‘and now for something completely Oriana.’

As the choir has demonstrated over the past 16 years, it is nothing if not eclectic - being equally adept in opera, sacred, jazz, baroque, pop, avant-garde and more.

A brief pause to reflect on the success of the Mozart/Gjeilo concerts, and to re-charge the batteries, and Oriana will be full speed ahead into preparations for Dancing Queen’ celebrating the music of ABBA and Queen.

“Oriana in full flight, delivering a joyous, shiver-inducing Bohemian Rhapsody, is some-

thing you won’t forget in a hurry”, says former Oriana vice president Ian Rix. Featuring many favourites of both groups, including the Boho Rhap, and perennials such as Dancing Queen, Money Money Money, Mamma Mia, Somebody to Love, Crazy Little Thing Called Love and many more, this will be a supremely popular concert series, appealing to all generations.

It promises to be one of the performance delights of 2021. And what better way to drive away the Covid blues than with an uplifting evening of the music of ABBA and Queen?

These two icons of the ‘70s have created a body of timeless music.

Their creativity, vitality, dynamism, exciting live presentations and sheer song-writing brilliance remain unparalleled.

Oriana is no stranger to the music of Queen and ABBA, having performed the songs of both bands many times.

With the 70-voice chorus conducted by Elisabeth Wallis Gaedtke and accompanied by a live band, you will be jiggling in your seat and tapping your toes in no time.

The performances at Noosa and Kawana will also see the Sunshine Coast Youth Choir performing, conducted by Annie Wilson.

Tickets are available from the venue (thej. com.au ph: 5329 6560) for the 7pm Noosa event at The J on August 14.

Bookings for either the 7pm August 21 cabaret or 2pm August 22 matinee at Venue114, Kawana are available on trybooking.com, phone 0431 542 343. Visit oriana.org.au for all the details.

Australia’s finest soul singer Angie Narayan is back to perform all your favourite Aretha hits.

Aretha Franklin is back Australia’s finest soul singer Angie Narayan is back once again to bring the ’respect’ to Noosa.

Show producer Monique said the show was more than showcasing Aretha’s greatest songs.

“It’s a story about family, loyalty and victory, layered with glorious harmonies and sassy repartee,” she said.

“Not only was Aretha the undisputed Queen of Soul, she also changed the landscape of R&B music.

“With her incredible four octave vocal range, and a hurricane of a voice - she is one of the most successful divas that has ever lived.

“I wanted to honour her legacy with the highest regard, so when I went looking for a singer who could connect with Aretha’s journey, and the voice to match, I couldn’t go past Australia’s finest soul singer, Angie Narayan.”

Angie’s extraordinary talent was showcased on the hit reality TV show, Australian

Idol. Dubbed Australia’s ‘Soul Mama’ by Ian Dickinson, she has continued to blow people away with her ground breaking voice.

The show is a wonderful trip down memory lane for anyone who is an Aretha fan.

“We start in the 1960s, where Aretha’s career began, taking you on an intimate musical odyssey through her life,“ Monique said.

“The 1960s was all jazz and blues, the 1970s with disco, and 1980s with pop.

Aretha constantly reinvented herself which is why she had career spanning over 50 years.”

Joining Angie on stage are performers Gideon Mzembe, Shelley Davies and Asabi Goodman, together with an energetic band.

You can expect all your favourite hits like ‘Natural Woman’, ’Think’, ‘Say A Little Prayer’, ‘Son of a Preacher Man’, ‘Chain of Fools’ to name a few.

You can catch RESPECT at The J Noosa on Saturday 17 July at 2:00pm and 7:30pm.

Tickets are available at TheJ.com.au or the Box Office on 07 5329 6560

The Hinterland Craft Beer Festival is back, presenting a line-up of eight local breweries and a smorgasbord of fun-filled entertainment, live music and food.

The free-entry and family-friendly festival will take place at The Imperial Hotel Eumundi on Saturday 26 June from 12noon til 8pm.

The festival will showcase freshly made brews from across the Sunshine Coast - Heads of Noosa, Copperhead Brewery, Boiling Pot Brewing Co, Moffat Beach Brewery, Sunshine Brewery, Brouhaha Brewery, Your Mates Brewing, and of course, Eumundi Brewery.

Imperial Hotel and Eumundi Brewery Manager Paul Thomas is thrilled to be hosting the event after a COVID-necessitated hiatus in 2020.

“After what’s been an unquestionably challenging last year, we’re excited to be back again, for what will be our third Hinterland Craft Beer Festival,” Paul said.

“This much-anticipated event gives beerlovers a great opportunity to sample and discover new beers.

“With more than 40 craft beers on offer, there’ll be something for everyone - ales, lagers, sours, porters, stouts, IPA’s and other specialty beers.

“And if you know a thing or two about brewing and are passionate about your craft beer, it

is a great chance to meet and share stories with the fabulous team of brewers who’ll be there on the day.”

Paul said the Hinterland Craft Beer Festival will also present festival-goers with the chance to taste and vote for the two finalist brews in Eumundi Brewery’s ‘Brewed By EU’ beer competition - a Pineapple, Ginger and Macadamia Sour and a Black Cockatoo Smoked Lager.

And if gin is more your thing, there’s the exciting addition of a Gin Bar this year serving up the Imperial Hotel’s house blend Folktale gins.To accompany the sensational brews and bevies, there will be some seriously tasty street food on the menu.

The event also boasts a program of live music and grooves throughout the afternoon and into the evening, with a line-up that includes Benny O, Ryan Giles and the Olivia Ruth Trio.

The Imperial Hotel’s Vinyl DJs will also spin some wax, and there’ll be a special Beer Fest Karaoke taking place in The Bunker for those keen to share their vocal talent.

Roving performers will have guests laughing and there will be special Pinball Lane set up for the day, as well as a raft of old school pub games.

This is a covid safe event. Please ensure you have the Check In Qld App to ensure a smooth entry process.

Big smiles from the Eumundi Brewery boys brewers Allan Tilden and Chris Sheehan.

What a roll-up at the 2019 Hinterland Craft Beer Festival.

Top Noosa Shire band The Claptomaniacs are playing two ’home’ games in June.

The five-piece band will be playing Cooroy RSL on Saturday June 12 from 7pm - their first appearance at the club since pre-Covid 2019.

Then the following week they feature at Tewantin Noosa RSL on Saturday June 19, kicking off at 8pm.

If you don’t already know the band, regarded as one of the tightest sounds around, The Claptomaniacs play a transatlantic treasure trove of classic material that’s well-known but not played to death on ’hits ’n’ memories’ radio.

Artists covered include (US) Steely Dan, the Doobie Brothers, Boz Scaggs, Huey Lewis and the News, Atlanta Rhythm Section, the Doors,

they experienced in Melbourne - they started doing online shows every week, sometimes twice a week and revisited songs from all these albums as well as workshopping new material. They kept their performing, playing and writing skills sharp.

They have also been in the studio recording a new album, provisionally titled ‘Thus Wags The World’, as well as issuing three live albums from the vaults in the last 12 months.

Dave Graney humbly adds (with tongue firmly in cheek), “It’s not like those other crumby bands. They are mostly wrong, we are totally right. Word. Comrade. We go East, West, North, South and Straight Up. Get some”.

Don’t miss this one. Graney and Moore specialise in delivering.

WHAT’S ON

Step into Colin’s kitchen

By Abbey Cannan A celebrity chef who turned pub dining into an awarded and celebrated experience will be sharing his insider tips at the upcoming Noosa Eat & Drink Festival.

His profile as a no-nonsense chef continues to grow, and those honest opinions led him to appear as a judge on Channel 7’s ratings winner ‘My Kitchen Rules’.

In true fashion, Colin Fassnidge said his demonstration in ’The Chefs Kitchen’ event would be “life changing“.

“Come down, enjoy yourself, and ask questions. Whatever you want to know, ask, because we’ve got chefs there that do it for a living, so make the most of it.“ Born in Dublin and trained by the legendary Raymond Blanc, Colin is a consistent winner of the prestigious chef’s hat.

“I was the first chef in Australia to get two Hats in a pub, so I’ve got the same awards as the top restaurants... but I was in a pub, which means I’m better,“ he laughed.

Colin said he was excited to visit Noosa, and was keen to step out and get amongst the local food scene.

“After last year with everything getting cancelled, you really don’t know what you’ve got until you lose it,“ he said.

“It’ll be really good just to get out and see a crowd again and cook for people. I’m looking forward to walking around and meeting all the chefs.

“We’ll be trying different restaurants, and we’ve got a lunch booking with other chefs at Sum Yung Guys.“ Colin said he was currently working on a TV show and has just released his second book.

“We’ve still got the two pubs in the city,“ he said.“We opened up a soup kitchen at one of our pubs during the Covid lockdown and that’s still going now.

Celebrity chef Colin Fassnidge will be giving away his secrets at Noosa Eat & Drink’s The Chefs Kitchen event.

“When it got tough, we went out and helped people rather than stripping the shelves of toilet paper like a lot of people did.

“It’s good to be open again, and since we supported the locals during the tough time, they’ve come back to support us ten-fold now.“ He said the industry was suffering with a lack of staff due to the Covid pandemic.

“It’s pretty bad at the moment for staff because the Government didn’t support the overseas workers during lockdown, so they’ve gone home, and now there’s no one to cook food,“ he said.

“There’s no staff anywhere. There’s no

one to pick the fruit, so the prices have gone through the roof, and I think there’s a sticky time ahead.“ Due to the recent lockdown in Melbourne, there has been some changes to the schedule for The Chefs Kitchen - with new additions of George Calombaris and Max Sharrad added to the line-up.

Colin has also stepped in to do Matt Preston’s demos.

Tucker With Trevor Restaurant Review

Solo Trev Thais one on Trevor Pepys reviews Nisa Thai With the missus claiming no appetite, but possibly just looking for an excuse to take a break from Trev’s incessant babble about the need for cheap house wine and such, your restaurant reviewer found himself wandering the mean streets of Noosaville the other night, looking for cheap thrills. (Of a culinary nature, of course.)

After a couple of happy hour sundowners along Gympie Terrace, he ambled along the Weyba Creek walkway and soon found himself in the midst of Noosa’s newest eat street. Well, the strip that runs from Sum Yung Guys’ new home at the corner of Lake Weyba Drive down to Izzy Chai in the South Pacific Resort is not exactly new, but it in the past it has somehow failed to really fire as a destination dining precinct. Maybe until now.

There is no doubt that the recent arrival of the cheeky chappies from Sunshine Beach will lift the whole strip, and rumours abound that another big name in local dining will soon be moving in just down the road. The accent is strongly Asian, so Trev decided to check out a cheaper option for those of us who can’t afford or can’t get a table at the temples of Oriental luxe.

In a town where (thankfully) there is no shortage of good Thai food, family-run Nisa Thai has, over half a dozen years or so, built a significant and faithful following of locals looking for value for money, as well as a sprinkle of tourists from the accommodations along the creek who simply want to walk to dinner.

There is a good reason for Nisa’s following.

It’s a friendly, unpretentious and eminently affordable eatery in a pleasant part of town. And the food is consistently no-nonsense good.

So Trev took a corner table on the deck’s most shadowy section, hoping to avoid both fans and creditors, and ordered a bottle of the Petal and Stem Pinot Gris ($35), an admirable quaffer from Marlborough, and not the only good option on a surprisingly thoughtful wine list, while he perused the menu. And, with just one palate to please, this was not exactly rocket science.

Working on the principle of simple dishes done right, Trev opted for a mixed entree ($12.90) followed by the chilli beef in hot basil ($22) from the extensive stir fry list. The entree was probably a bit of overkill for just one, but the two spring rolls, curry puffs and fish cakes all slipped down on a bed of the pinot without fuss, and it must be said that the spicy fish cakes won the first round convincingly.

At the late and somewhat lamented Thai Square, just along the creek from Nisa, the stir fry list was always Trev’s default dining decision, often feasting on a delicious chilli duck, and it’s true that I had the quacker in mind again on this solitary evening, and might have

Nisa Thai.

Mixed entree. selected it, had I not stopped to admire a family of the little buggers waddling around in the mud in a break in the mangroves as I neared my destination. Even Trev has a heart, and yes, it can be stirred, so there being no cows in sight, the beef it was.

Chilli beef and basil stir fry.

This was a good call – a tender piece of meat in the right combination of garlic, chilli, bamboo, onion, beans and basil. Sated, full and slightly flatulent, Trevor drained the pinot and called for his modest bill.

The verdict: If you want loud music and ex-

citable waitstaff with your top tucker, go up the road. If you want flavoursome food in a friendly, family environment at a sensible price, Nisa is for you.

SPORT NOOSATODAY.COM.AU

Hook, Line and Sinker Tackle World Noosa

Cool times, hot fishing With winter now upon us we are starting to see the winds tending more westerly which as predicted has cleaned the water up offshore.

Conditions have also calmed down and despite swell on the bar the offshore conditions have been quite pleasant especially during the week.

For those heading out the species list has been varied especially after the full moon last week. During the neap tides, fishing in the deeper waters of Double Island Point, North Reef and The Hards is easier as you need less weight to reach the bottom.

Most fish caught are tending to consist of snapper up to 80cm, sweetlip in excess of 50cm and pearlies as well as a few smaller 10KG jewfish. Floating baits on light gear remains one of the best ways to fish, especially on anchor and follow it up with a light burley trail.

Using a mix of pilchards, pellets and tuna oil creates a great scent trail for fish to pick up on. If in shallower waters around Sunshine, Castaways and Halls Reef break out the 20lb gear with a 20-25lb fluorocarbon leader like YGK Nitlon which will help you around the rough bottom. Grab a pack of size 1 ball sinkers, some octopus circle hooks in 3/0-4/0.

Send down small chunk baits of mullet with an open bail arm and wait for snapper to run off with your bait before striking. This is a lot of fun and you learn how to fight fish on lighter gear and as the saying goes “Fish light to get the bite” There are still longtail tuna around so as always have a rod ready to cast. If you are looking for a great rod then check out the Ecooda Black Hawk rods which are on special. There is a 7ft 1 piece that’s perfect for casting metals and plastics which gives you a rod for snapper and tuna.

Surf fishing is starting to show signs of tailor coming in. With reports of fish turning up both north and south of Noosa it won’t be long until we see them. Most anglers target these fish on smaller gang hooks and pilchard baits.

Another way to target these fish is to cast slugs like the Gillies baitfish into the surf line. These handy lures will also pluck trevally, tuna and mackerel from the bait schools so always carry a few. They also cast very well and work well on windy days.

The Noosa River is experiencing a good run on flatties in the smaller 50cm size range.

These are a great lure target for the novice angler. Take a look at Berkley Nemesis plastics which have an action many fish love. With the cool weather there have also been some tailor in the estuary. These fish are a fantastic surface lure target. When they take down a surface lure the hit is nothing short of explosive! Try an Atomic Walker or larger Bassday Sugapen and work around Woods Bays on a first light high tide.

A couple of nice snapper from recent Trekka 2 charter to Double Island Point.

Another popular target are jewfish and although small they provide excellent angling fun on lighter 12lb gear. They respond well to heavily scented plastics like the Keitech Easy shiners in the 3 and 4 inch sizes. You will have to move around to find these fish as they can be found from the mouth to beyond Lake Cooroibah. The bite from a jewfish is more of a nibble or a light double tap. Be sure to strike hard as they have a hard mouth and let them run before bringing them to the net.

Freshwater continues to provide anglers with smaller bass in the 35-40cm range in both Lake Macdonald and Borumba. As mentioned last week they will be starting to move into the main basins over the coming weeks as things start to cool down further. Their natural urge to spawn is not lost on dam fish and they will school up in large numbers. Most of the time they will sit hard on the bottom so use soft plastics on 3/8th jighead weights and pull your lures through the school. Heavier sinkers ensure you stay low which helps trigger a bite from reluctant fish. Don’t forget that wild bass and Mary river cod are not to targeted during the annual closure for spawning.

Now for all the latest information log onto www.fishingnoosa.com.au for up to date bar and fishing reports, don’t forget to drop into Tackle World Noosa, Noosa Boating and Outdoors and Northshore Bait & Tackle in Marcoola for all the right equipment, bait and advice to get you catching.

Superman of Cooroy vets When Mike Kent joined Cooroy four years ago and decided to get serious about his golf, he opted for a set of same-length Cobra irons just like those used on the US PGA Tour by his hero Bryson deChambeau.

“I’ve always had back issues and I thought if my irons were all the same length it might be easier for my back,” said the man his mates call ‘Superman’, partly at least because of his surname.

It took more than three years for Mike to work out that, although same-length irons worked wonders for the unconventional deChambeau, they did precious little for Mike’s golf game.

“All my theories were wrong,” he laughed, “so I went back to regular length clubs.”

He bought a new set of Calloway irons and armed himself with one of those long, armlock putters that are supposed to remove any tension from the wrists.

It too him a few months to master his new armoury, but then it clicked.

A fortnight ago, Mike scored 39 points to win Cooroy Veterans’ Wednesday comp. A few days later he followed up with 36 points in a vets’ event at Maryborough, then last Wednesday put it all together to win the vets’ Monthly Medal with a wonderful nett 64.

He began the round with successive pars, then mixed pars with bogeys until he reached the ninth green.

“Then I parred every single hole on the back nine,” he said. “I’d never done anything like that before.”

Mike’s 75 off the stick was the best gross round of the day.

Not bad for a man who had only played the occasional social round before he moved from Bli Bli to Imbil four years ago and decided to make golf a priority in his life.

His first handicap was 25, and in four years he’s trimmed that to a current Golf Australia mark of about 13, which means he now plays off nine or 10 at Cooroy.

“I’ve tweaked my swing along the way,” he explained. “I was trying to hit the ball with an inside-out swing to produce a draw – but just as often I’d snap hook it or block it to the right.

“One day I decided to set up directly behind the ball, open my stance and hit straight through. Since then I’ve been hitting the ball really well.”

A confessed poor putter, Mike says his new long putter has given him the confidence to get the ball much closer to the hole. And he says he’s enjoying the game like never before.

After a career which included a stint as a training coordinator with TAFE, working in a call centre with Telstra and time as a public servant, Mike retired at 56. He’d moved from Brisbane to the Sunshine Coast in 1997.

Though he says he doesn’t practice or hit balls on the range, he’s a regular at Cooroy on Wednesdays and Saturdays, and plays with the vets on Monday host days a couple of times a month.

Caitlin wraps up a successful weekend After storming to a commanding lead following the first round of the womens’ club championship on Saturday, Caitlin Wheatley then led her Noosa Springs 2 team to its first win of the season in Sunday’s junior pennant competition.

Caitlin, 1 six handicapper, beat Noosa 2’s Angus Thompson 2up, while John Bell was too good for his Noosa 2 opponent Colin Todd, winning 1up. Despite having to forfeit the third match, Noosa 2 scored a thrilling 2-1 win.

On Saturday, Caitlin fired 83 to take a twostroke lead in the Noosa Springs club championship from fellow junior Sunday Moore.

In other junior pennant competition, Noosa Springs 1 – the all-girl team of Sunday and Coco Moore and Jasmine Lena, continued on its winning way, despatching Noosa 1 3-0, all girls scoring good wins.

Try Noosa Springs on Show Day IT’S the Sunshine Coast Show Day holiday this Friday – the day Maroochy residents are encouraged to visit the Nambour showgrounds to get a taste of rural life.

But if golf’s more your thing, it’s the perfect time to head to Noosa Springs.

Noosa Springs welcomes Coast golfers with significantly reduced Locals Special green fees on Tuesdays and Sundays. The offer is being extended to Friday, and it’s not just for those who lives in the old Maroochy shire.

Locals – those who live anywhere on the Sunshine Coast, or Gympie – can play Noosa Springs on that day for just $79, the price including an electric cart.

Golfers fall in love with our courses Nearly 130 golfers, many of them from Brisbane and the Gold Coast, are discovering this week that Sunshine Coast’s golf courses are equal to any in the country.

They are competing in the Sunshine Coast Winter Golf Classic, which began on Monday with the first round of the 72-hole tournament played at Maroochy River.

Play was set to continue on Tuesday at Peregian, on Thursday at Noosa Springs, concluding at Twin Waters on Friday, where presentations will be made after play finishes.

This year’s event was a sell-out, with organisers hopeful that numbers next year will be significantly higher with COVID-19 travel restrictions expected to ease.

Results will appear next week.

PETER HEINIGER When looking at improving your own game, never be frightened of stepping out of your comfort zone and playing with better players or in stronger tournaments at tougher courses.

Initially, it can be a very daunting thing to do, however your game inevitably will appreciate it and will be lifted to their levels rather than possibly being dragged down.

Learn from them as much as you can – things like course management, self-management, club selection and rhythm.

Pro-ams are also a great way to learn by playing alongside some of Australia’s best professional golfers.

Golf is the only sport which provides this opportunity and it’s an opportunity that one shouldn’t miss out on when it comes along.

Better players are normally the more experienced players. Learn as much as you can from them and don’t be frightened to ask lots of questions. Good golfing.

Noosa Dolphins score funding About 500 Noosa rugby players will be able to grow stronger skills with new training gear thanks to a $9,552 federal government grant.

The Noosa Dolphins Rugby Union Club will receive the funding through Round 6 of the Morrison Government’s Stronger Communities Programme to help purchase essential equipment including tackling pads, junior and senior rugby balls, and scrum practising equipment.

“With 500 players aged from under six to seniors, Noosa Rugby Union Club is one of the biggest on the Coast, and play an important role in Noosa’s sports and recreation sector,” Federal Member for Wide Bay and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Llew O’Brien said.

“Sadly due to the challenges of COVID-19, sponsorships have been reduced which has placed strain on the Club’s finances, so I am pleased the Liberal and Nationals Government is providing this funding to ensure players have adequate equipment to assist training, performance and safety.

“Noosa Dolphins not only plays a vital role in encouraging people into sport and supporting players of all ages, the club also prides itself on teaching correct techniques to ensure their players can play their best, minimise the risk of injury, and most of all, enjoy their sport.”

“The equipment can also be shared with the local schools that use the Dolphin’s fields, and the community can also use the equipment in between club training sessions.”

The Stronger Communities Programme Round 6 provided up to $150,000 for each of the 151 federal electorates in Australia, with

“There is always strong interest in the Stronger Communities Programme grants, and competition is keen, so I encourage or-

ganisations interested in bringing forward SCP project proposals in future rounds to contact my electorate office on telephone 4121 2936, or the Sunshine Coast, or Wide Bay Burnett Regional Development Australia Committees through the website www.rda.gov.au,” Mr O’Brien said.

Talking Sport Ron Lane

Mum’s the word at Noosa To build a successful club is of course no easy task, and if you take the time to look closely, you will always find, that there are many major factors involved. On taking a close look at our Noosa district, you will become aware that there is (among others)one such club: Its’ name, is the Noosa Dolphins Rugby Union Club and one of their prime factors is, without a doubt, the Noosa Ladies Dolphins.

It only takes a short time discussing the clubs background with Club President Donald Mc Kill, to realise the respect he has for this committee. “Our club is incredibly proud of the women who work within the Junior and Senior sections of the club. We have Donna Frey(Grants Coordinator), Helen Cutcliffe ( Treasurer), Zoe Griffin (Junior President),Marie Cairns (Register) and Tash Ramsden (Media): these women are an incredible asset to our club. I would like the opportunity to mention, that Donna and Tash have recently been recognised with volunteer community awards, for their contribution to local sports clubs.

Also, other ladies involved in a variety of roles within our club, are also very much appreciated by all.’’ It is interesting to note, that all these women are mothers, with young boys playing rugby in the junior ranks.

It is only right that we should publicly acknowledge and identify these people, but I feel that we should also have some knowledge as to the work- load they accept when taking on their various positions.

One of the most important positions in any club, would have to be that of Junior President.

Without a strong junior club providing and maintaining, a good flow of juniors into the senior ranks, the senior will start to suffer: and for the Noosa Dolphins the holder of this vital chair is Zoe Griffin. This lady in doing so, has created club history by becoming the first ever female Junior President; holding the position for the past two years.

Zoe has three children and one of them, eldest son Louie, is an absolute rugby tragic.

Louie who started playing for Dolphins at 6, is this year in the U/15s. “His love for the sport and the club,” said his proud mum, “is what encouraged me to get on board and help out years ago! I love the club as it is family for many kids. The loyalty that the kids have for the team, mates, club and coaches is magic to watch. They help each other in tough times and stick together-win lose or draw. The club is much more than just a game of rugby. It is a tribe for some and a comfortable home for others: it is a place where friendships are made, through mutual interests and respect for each other.” With a Junior President giving such an assurance as this, there can be no doubt that the player future on the Noosa Dolphins is in good hands.

The care of the magic dollar is and has always been of the utmost concern. However, for the Dolphins Junior Treasurer Helen Cutcliffe, working with her present committee of good solid dedicated ladies in a happy environment, all is good. For Helen it all started when her son Michael saw the light and switched from rugby league to rugby union. Starting his career in the U/10s, he is now in his final season of Senior Colts and next year will play Reserve Grade. From the moment her son started playing for the Dolphins Helen was strongly attracted by the good solid family atmosphere.

“I wanted immediately to be part of the club myself. To offer my services and to help in some way. My husband felt the same way, so he also became actively involved in the club.

Our current committee and volunteer coaches all share the common goal of wanting to grow and better our club for both junior and senior players, sponsors and members alike. As with other committee members the importance of many friendships of varying ages has been the major factor. “My sons’ mates who always take the time to say hullo and give me a hug; the mums and dads who cheer from the sideline and the senior members who have supported and respected me in my current roles.” Again,

Dolphin women Marie Cairns, Donna Frey, Zoe Griffin, Tash Ramsden and Helen Cutcliffe. the family environment: something that money can’t buy.

For Donna Frey, her involvement in the club came about as a result of watching her husband Rob ( also a former player)performing his role as club Junior President: a position he held for several years. “Watching Rob and listening to him speak of the respect, culture and history made me want to give something back to this club. When our kids started playing in the juniors, the cub really became a major part of our family life: the club life provided our kids with a sporting pathway that helped them through the turbulent years.”

Regarding her position, the success of receiving her first grant was an amazing feeling: generating the extra dollars that was so badly needed for this not- for- profit- club. In her capacity as a volunteer Grants Coordinator, Donna is now working on a major Club Facility Upgrade. “With the Strategic Plan completed in 2020, it identified that to stay a leading Rugby Union Club on the Sunshine Coast, several parts of the facility needed to be upgraded.”

She is currently working on the club’s Master Plan and she, and the Senior Committee are finalising the elements needed for the upgrade, including a club house upgrade, Field 2 Amenities and viewing deck and sealing of the car park based which has also been based on member feedback. Donna will represent the club and forge strong partnerships, with local Council, State and Federal Departments with

regard to Grant and funding opportunities.

This, plus the clubs own fundraising, will make the Facility Upgrade a reality in the near future.

To say that the position of the club Media Officer is important, is something of an understatement; for the responsibility of keeping the modern day Social- Media up to date, plus having the support of, and access to, all avenues of the local Media, is indeed the lifeblood of the future. Happy to say that for the Noosa Dolphins, Tash Ramsden is definitely the lady for the job: her ability to maintain “good communication to its members and public arenas” gives all sections of the club a good feeling of transparency.

For Tash, her association with the club started eighteen years ago, when she met Rohan Ramsden a player, and now coach, who was to become her husband and father of their two sons (now playing junior rugby) Rory and Lewis. “I am inspired by their passion and enthusiasm: our members are so giving of their time and skills, that it’s a pleasure to be around the place. Some of our dearest friends are Dolphins, so it’s very easy to spend a lot of time at the club.” Whilst not on the actual committee, Tash volunteers’ countless hours, thus ensuring that Dolphins’ communications never falter.

The lady, who holds the office of club Registrar Marie Cairns, has done so since 2013. Her first contact came about when her son Alex, joined the club to play Rugby for the Dolphins

U/7s in 2006: he continued to do so till 2017.

Like all the ladies she loves the club. “Being part of this community club makes me feel like I am a part of something greater than myself: although I do like flying under the radar, I just really like getting on with what I volunteered to do.” Despite the fact that her son no longer plays for the club, she can still be seen volunteering for every event: she is now definitely, an integral part of the club.

In her official capacity as Registrar, she is in charge of the registration and insurance of all players, a job which in this day and age, is of the utmost importance. Also, this year she has been a club representative, keeping abreast with all the latest regulations regarding Covid Safe Practice: with the ever- changing regulations, this has been no easy job.

It is interesting to note that all five ladies became involved because their children were playing junior rugby. Also, it is reputed that almost half of the Dolphins (a White Ribbon Club) Senior Committee are ladies. And mums to boot! Perhaps this is why, when watching a game or socialising with friends after, one can’t help but get the feeling that the Noosa Dolphins is indeed a family club.

For lovers of Rugby, both League and Union, this Saturday will be big with both Dolphins and Pirates hosting home games in all grades. For Dolphins it’s Vs University first game 10.30am, Pirates Vs Nambour first game 1pm. Good luck to both.

Life of Brine Phil Jarratt

The masked World Games Surfing’s Olympic qualifying event, that really should have been called off because of the health risks, somehow stumbled through last week in El Salvador, crowning new world champions and sending the final 12 of 40 surfers selected for the Olympic to Tokyo.

After seven surfers tested Covid-positive at the start of the Games, they seemed likely to be abandoned, but tenacious International Surfing Association president Fernando Aguerre adopted strict new protocols and just got on with it. An emotional man at the best of times, Fernando said after the crisis had been averted: “The Olympic spirit has been stronger than ever today. Emotions showed, tears flowed, and dreams were fulfilled. Finally we know all of the men and women who will raise their country’s flags in Tokyo.

“And to those young surfers who did not qualify, I have some words for you. In just three years you will get another chance to compete in the Paris 2024 Games in Teahupo’o, Tahiti.

Focus and get back to work, because surfing is here to stay in the Olympic Games.”

Fernando added: “A total of 17 countries qualified among the 40 surfers. We have countries such as Indonesia, Germany, Morocco, and Argentina competing in the Games. That is a true testament to the growth and universality of our sport, part of a major goal of ours to spread the joy of surfing to all corners of the globe.”

The Games, held at El Salvador’s La Bocana breaks, renamed Surf City for the duration, crowned Australia’s Sally Fitzgibbons ISA women’s world champion for a third time, with France’s Joan Duru winning his debut world men’s crown and, alongside team-mate Jeremy Flores, pushing France into a teams world title.

This was a rather special result for me, because 20 years ago, while working for Quiksilver Europe’s marketing department, Gary “Kong” Elkerton and I carted these two little French boys and their mates from one end of Europe to the other, competing on the Pro Junior Tour. Now both of them, in the middle of stellar pro careers, have the opportunity to win Olympic gold for their country.

While many of the Olympic qualifiers had already been selected at prior events – including Australia’s full team of Fitzgibbons, Stephanie Gilmore, Owen Wright and Julian Wilson - the 2021 ISA World Surfing Games awarded the last slots to the highest ranking eligible five men and seven women. The seven women’s slots were claimed by Portugal’s Teresa Bonvalot and Yolanda Sequeira, Costa Rica’s Leilani McGonagle, Peru’s Daniella Rosas, Japan’s Mahina Maeda and Amuro Tsuzuki, and France’s Pauline Ado. The men’s slots were earned by Germany’s Leon Glatzer, Peru’s Lucca Mesinas and Miguel Tudela, Chile’s Manuel Selman and Japan’s Hiroto Ohhara.

More jab, less jabber I’m so sick and tired of hearing the politicians and the health bureaucrats go on night after night about the importance of attaining herd immunity through the Covid vaccination of around 80 percent of our population, while the problem lies almost entirely in their own failure to deliver adequate systems to get the job done.

My wife and I finally got our first jab a couple of weeks ago, several months since becoming eligible. The reason for the delay is because our trusted medical centre of nearly 30 years refused to take vaccination appointments until they had enough doses to ensure delivery.

Finally, on a visit to my GP, whom I regard as one of the best in the business, I was told to keep an eye on the centre’s website to find out when they were taking appointments again.

When I did that I found that they had since removed themselves from the roster because “we found that COVID vaccination was placing an unreasonable and unsustainable burden on our practice”.

Whichever doctor wrote that should perhaps consider the sustainability of his or her own medical career. Merchant banking might 46 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 11 June, 2021

But buck passing in private practices is only part of the problem. Everywhere you look there are bureaucratic obstacles to a free and easy jab, at a time when we should all be following a clearly-marked route to the nearest vaccination centre to do our duty for the common good of all Australians, and to hasten the process of getting back to our favourite offshore surf destinations.

FOOTNOTE: In another part of last week’s edition of Noosa Today I wrote about old mates Andy Cowan and Barry Charles teaming up for a very special concert called Time to Reflect at Pomona’s Majestic Theatre next weekend.

Andy phoned me just as the issue went to print, distraught that while reflecting on his long and storied musical career he’d neglected

to mention frequent collaborator and legendary bluesman Doc Span. It was too late to do anything about it then, but since everyone who loves the blues loves Doc, and since 30 years ago he played the blues at my 40th birthday party, and since he’s had a pretty tough year, let’s raise our glasses (and harmonicas) to the one and only Doc Span.

NOOSA AFC TIGER TALK 202103085735_1-SG12-21

Thank God for the bye

By Julian Pitts It’s been a very tough initiation into the state league for the Rococo Noosa Tigers after another heavy loss against finals fancies Redlands in Brisbane last week.The undermanned and inexperienced Tigers were smashed around the contest throughout the first half and it was noticeable that the skilfull sharks were at a level far beyond the Tigers. Senior coach Adam Bovalino said: “To be honest mate I reckon we need the break. The boys confidence is low and you could tell the fatigue from a pretty tough first 9 rounds is upon us. Not that any of my boys threw the towel in, their effort has never waned from round one to now. Thought two of our teenagers in Shadeau Brain and Cooper Ogden were terrific on the weekend and that’s been a positive where we have been able to blood colts the past 6 weeks and that will stand us in good stead for the future”.

Other good players for Noosa last weekend were usual suspects skipper Aaron Laskey who is having an awesome year and key defender Riley Buntain who too is showing he is more than ready for the standard and is also having a superb year. Seb Rodgers collected the Douggie Murray award for being judged Noosa best player as he too has been in solid form over the past month or so.

As mentioned earlier the senior men, re-

serves and colts have a bye this weekend with the Senior women taking centre stage at Weyba road on Saturday from 2 pm.This writer actually had the pleasure of running water for the women’s team last Saturday night at Pine Rivers where our mischief hair girls put on a really impressive second half to run away convincing winners. Ragen Mills was outstanding for the victors in the middle collecting a heap of touches whilst Chip Trompf was a real focal point up forward. Shannon Hill and Maddy Trompf controlled the back half the entire night to keep our ladies team right at the top of the table.

Our Noosa Tigers Inclusion Game is on also this Saturday at Weyba Road from 12md with young and popular Noosa Tiger Hunter Walker among the action.

And please don’t forget to mark Saturday 26 June in your calendar as we celebrate our 50th year of existence. It’s for all involved or have been involved in our 50 year journey!

Seniors, juniors, players, administrators, volunteers, supporters, everyone. Finger food and first drinks provided with live music, team of the decades announced and interviews with some of the key stakeholders over the journey.

Will be a ripper!

Good luck to all teams representing the Noosa tigers this weekend!

GOOD DESIGN, BUILD, HELPS DRIVE PRICES PROPERTY MATTERS ERLE LEVEY THE quality of housing in Noosa is coming to the fore as buyers seek good design, aspect and high standards in building.

It has the effect of driving sales in an already sought-after region.

Real estate principal Tom Offermann said matching the Noosa aesthetic with design really stands out, the way we embrace the environment.

“It only makes sense given the amenable environment in which we live,’’ he said.

“Work with it, open the houses up.

“We do not have to close them up for the weather.’’

Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Lauren Chen is seeing strong inquiry for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex apartment with pool at 1/3 Ann St, Noosaville, that goes to auction Saturday, June 12, at 10am.

“A sun-drenched, stand-alone duplex with its own pool off your living room just one street back from the Noosa River, might just be the answer.’’

As well as good numbers at open homes, Lauren hosted five private viewings in the first week of the campaign.

“Feet through the door and inquiry has been huge … most have been Melbourne, Brisbane and local people looking to make the shift.

“It has a really nice, homey feel. It faces north so there is sun at any time.

“It feels and operates like a house.’’

BEACH HOUSE APPEAL Rebekah Offermann and Eric Seetoo at Tom Offermann Real Estate have been seeing a fantastic response to a six-bedroom, sixbathroom beachside house with pool at 25 Adams St, Sunshine Beach, that goes to auction on Saturday.

and gull’s eye views, from the Tea Tree Bayside of the Noosa National Park, across to the northerly Lions Head, then sweeping south the white sand of Sunshine Beach, and onwards to Point Cartwright and Mooloolaba.

There are multiple living and leisure spaces on three levels, floor-to-ceiling picture windows, banks of louvres, and sliders to access undercover terraces, On the lower level is a second fully selfcontained living space with bar/servery, and a separate entry.

SYDNEY BUYERS FLY IN Ahead of this weekend’s auctions Nick Hunter’s listing of 51 Tristania St, Marcus Beach, has sold to buyers who flew from Sydney and loved the four-bedroom residence as well as location near the beach.

There had been very solid interest in the property, which has a lot to do with the privacy of the street.

The key appeal is being so close to beach, Rebekah said, and with white sand and waves breaking views.

People are also attracted to the large proportions of the house including the high ceilings - big enough for even the largest or extended families.

RARE GEM IN SUNSHINE The six-bedroom, three-bathroom house at 36 Enterprise St, Sunshine Beach, marks a hidden gem in a sought-after location in which properties rarely become available.

Nic Hunter of Tom Offermann Real Estate is seeing a lot of interest in the property ahead of Saturday’s auction at 9am.

Much of the interest is from interstate, with people indicating they will be flying in for it.

“Some have just spent their time in isolation in order to get up,’’ Nic said, referring to the Covid-19 lockdowns in Melbourne.

The property has 270-degree grandstand

A six-bedroom, six-bathroom beachside house with pool at 25 Adams St, Sunshine Beach, goes to auction on Saturday, June 12. 239585 intention of renovating or rebuilding to take advantage of the peaceful location.

Then at 11am Kess and Graham took the four-bedroom, three-bathroom house with pool on 0.79ha at 29 Meadow Ct, Doonan, to the market.

Again, there were five registered bidders for the refurbished home close to the golf course.

And it came down to two who were fighting for the chocolates.

The property sold for $2.390m to a young Australian family returning from overseas. They had been staying in Noosa and fell in love with the property from the start.

The sellers have upsized with acreage at Black Mountain.

TWO FOR AUCTION Husband-and-wife team Mario and Jeanette Catalano have a couple of auctions on the go and both attracting inquiry.

On Wednesday, June 16, they are taking the three-bedroom, two-bathroom house on 694sq m at 6 Fittell Ct, Tewantin, to the market at 2pm.

Then on Friday, June 18, they will put 6 and 8 Springfield Ccl, Cooroy, under the hammer at 11am.

Buyers for the Tewantin property have been a mixture of singles, couples and families, Jeanette said.

“They like the location, with close proximity to schools, shops and beach.’’

Beautifully presented and lovingly maintained, this stylish home is also fresh from recently being painted inside and out.

It offers a liveable floor plan and features white shutters, split system airconditioned lounge room, a modern kitchen with plenty of bench and cupboard space plus a convenient breakfast bar.

This property also boasts 20 solar

panels, rainwater tanks, gardens sheds, and secure yard.

“All properties have had good interest right from the get-go.

“There has been plenty of attendance at the mid-week opens too.

“We are seeing buyers who have been trying to secure a property for a while and keep missing out, along with new buyers too.’’

Interest is mainly from Queenslanders still, but some from New South Wales are sending friends first.

READY FOR NEXT CHAPTER Melbourne people are still in the mix for Noosa property despite the Covid-19 lockdown in the southern capital yet it is different to having them up here for open homes.

Scott Cowley and Kelsie Melville of Noosa Estate Agents are seeing a real mix of interest ahead of their auction at 8 Oak St, Sunshine Beach, on Saturday, June 19, at 1pm.

As well as internet inspections from people in Melbourne they are seeing locals and Brisbane interest for the original fivebedroom, two-bathroom beach house on 540sq m.

“Probably 20 years old, the house has been perfect for the family’s beach lifestyle,’’ Scott said. “They have lived it and loved it.

“Now it’s time for someone to transform it or to update it, otherwise remove it and rebuild … it’s such a good spot.’’

The interiors of the house feature high raked ceilings, open plan living and large gymnasium or multi-purpose room.

The fully-covered deck enjoys a north eastern aspect INQUIRY LEVELS BUILD Roger Omdahl of Laguna Real Estate continues to clock up inquiries on the three-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment 4/35 Picture Point Cres, Noosa Heads, in the lead-up to the June 19 auction.

Inquiries from Victoria, especially Melbourne, are increasing a lot – most for a holiday unit, but some to live in.

South east Queensland and coastal inquiry is still strong, with most looking to live in and also to renovate.

“It’s a huge house, a lovely family home, right on the beach,’’ Nic said.

Positioned on the highest ridgeline of this exclusive beachfront enclave, the house is across three levels and captures panoramic ocean views.

An external staircase leads down to the 20-metre lap pool, gymnasium, workshop, storeroom and poolside bathroom.

Last weekend Tom Offermann Real Estate’s Tracy Russell secured $830,000 for her listing of 21 Verano, 14 James St, Noosaville.

There were six registered bidders, strong interest came from Brisbane and interstate buyers, 25 were in attendance and it was a record for a two-bedroom in the complex.

The Tim McSweeney-listed 106-107 Hotel Laguna, 6 Hastings St, Noosa Heads, was withdrawn, and the Cameron Urquhartlisted 27 Sivyers Rd, Tinbeerwah, is for sale at $2.695m.

On Sunday there were three registered bidders for the Chris Miller-listed 7309 Pepper Noosa Resort, 5 Morwong Dve, Noosa Heads.

Interest came expat Australians and interstater investors. It was sold under the hammer to a thrilled family from Melbourne.

Chris was also thrilled as it marks the 18th sale in the past 14 months at the much sought-after Peppers Noosa Resort, where occupancy rates are consistently high.

AUCTION SUCCESS Kess Prior and Graham Smith at Hinternoosa saw double auction success on Saturday with their Noosaville and Doonan properties both attracting strong bidding and selling under the hammer.

“Our auctions are going off,’’ Kess said.

“It was a no-brainer to switch to them in this market.

“Too many people are unhappy with multi-offer situations.

“With auctions they can see the process.’’

With five registered bidders, the threebedroom, one-bath creek-front house on 728sq m at 155 Lake Weyba Dve, Noosaville, was offered first, at 9am Two bidders fought it out in the end, with it going for $1.625m to a young couple with deep roots in the Noosa property industry.

ON THE COVER

LUXURY FROM HERE TO SERENITY NEAR HASTINGS STREET LOOKING for a dress circle location almost on Hastings Street near Main Beach, with magical views across Laguna Bay to Mt Cooroy and the Noosa North Shore, surrounded by one of nature’s more sublime assets, the Noosa National Park, whilst enjoying a garden apartment? Sound too good to be true?

Step inside. Notice the on-trend soft grey neutral palette to complement the outdoors in the contemporary well-appointed living and dining areas, and how the tall glass sliding doors seemingly disappear and morph from indoors, and out to an alfresco terrace. Such an obvious space for barbeques and watching the afternoon sun sink into the hinterland and ocean.

Look further and the terrace widens, incorporates an undercover area before it wraps and widens again into a massive 2-level totally private oasis. What appears to be an extension of the national park, is in fact your exclusive garden fringed with palms. It forms a lush green backdrop on three sides, and a spa is tucked inbetween.

Those with a penchant for relaxing and catching stray rays will enjoy the serenity, however it may be broken on occasions by choruses from the local birdlife and of course splashes and laughter from the heated spa.

The king master suite with terrace access, has a wall mounted television and a walk-through dressing room with built-in robes and a generous ensuite with double size vanity basin. The king-size second bedroom has built-in robes, a wall mounted television and direct access to the family bathroom. Visitors also have access to it

via another doorway.

The galley-style kitchen has cream 2-pac cabinetry, grey stone bench tops, appliances and everything else required for the high-end holiday market.

“When it comes to an excellent location this near beachside apartment is secondto-none,“ comment Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Julie Bengtsson and Mal Cox. “Hastings Street, with its sophisticated array of boutiques, art galleries and nationally known restaurants and cafes, plus Noosa Main Beach and Laguna Bay, is a minute away.

NOOSA SOUND 80’S ORIGINAL THE mystique surrounding a residence with a curvaceous stucco-rendered facade finished in salmon pink, considered to be very Melrose Place, and a hallmark of Spanish mission-style architecture, has been revealed. It also shrieks ripe with opportunity to return the faded beauty to its former glory, albeit with an ultra-luxe sophisticated renovation.

From the leafy streetscape and landscaped front garden enter from the side. Built in the early 80s, the solid virtues of the 2-storey albeit faded residence with great bones, still retains some of its aura of romance and drama, a sense of story and original condition.

There are celestial ceilings, cedar walls, and a ‘sculptured’ white rendered fireplace with wood store which mimics the look of a mud-brick adobe. The main living area, dining and lounge with a study tucked on one side, all have engaging proportions, and great liveability with sealed terracotta tiles stretching the width of the property and surrounding the free-form pool on one side.

Timber decking on the other side of the pool extends to the revetment wall, water’s edge, and beach, to a long T-shaped jetty.

The cul-de-sac location means it is private as well as perfect for swimming in the clean clear waterway, also kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding, but of course for boaties it is the easy access to the Noosa River and the Noosa Everglades.

Upstairs are three bedrooms. The master has a dressing room, walk-in robe, ensuite, adjoining balcony and loft space.

Two bedrooms, one with a balcony share a bathroom with a spa bath.

On the north-side is a massive rooftop ‘terraza’.

Surrounded by much-admired multimillion-dollar residences this is arguably the most exclusive, hottest address currently on Noosa Sound, and just a stroll to Hastings Street.

“Seize the one-off moment at a forthcoming estate finalisation auction,” says Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Eric Seetoo.

“Residing in this Noosa Sound playground has immense cachet. It is the domain of many and on the wish-list of many more, and will no doubt attract a lot of interest from investors and home buyers wanting to capitalise on the address. You just cannot ignore the dream location so close to everything Noosa Heads”.

Facts & Features: Land Size: 622m2 House Size: 283m2 Waterfrontage / Jetty: 20m / 4.5m wide X 3m T-shaped Pool: 5.8m x 11m About: built 1982; 2-level; rooftop terrace 5.9m x 5 x 9m; fireplace & wood storage Kitchen: original L-shaped with laminex bench tops including island, timber cabinetry, Miele oven; fans; loft room, Location: Within minutes walk to Noosa’s Main Beach, a little further to the worldfamous Noosa National Park and World Surfing Reserve; Short stroll to Quamby Place restaurants ●

BEACHSIDE LIVING AT ITS ABSOLUTE BEST FRINGED by evergreen frangipanis, enhanced by sandstone pavers and a naturally silvered entrance gate define the streetscape, yet evoke privacy and mystique to the ravishing bright white beachside showstopper.

Designed by the inimitable Stephen Kidd, it is all about tranquil spaces and stellar style, reminiscent of a seaside art gallery. Natural light via the upper windows and skylights of the clerestory-ceilinged central atrium, saturate the shiny honeyhued blackbutt flooring, on the two levels.

Play of scale, volumes and intimacy are evident throughout the overly generous lounge, living and dining areas, with large paintings, predominantly blue collectibles on custom-built cabinetry, and a woodburning fireplace, adding spatial interest to the white palette. Banks of white plantation shutters are throughout.

The ultimate art piece is of course nature’s ever-changing grand sea and landscape, ‘disappearing’ glass sliders almost the width of the house meld indoors to out. In the foreground is a massive timber deck which ‘spills’ over the back garden framed by pandanus frequented by black cockatoos, ahead is glistening white sand and to the delight of surfers, white-capped waves break close to the foreshore.

Overall, stupendous views extend from Lions Heads across the Coral Sea to Coolum and beyond. During the season whales and dolphins are favourite passersby.

delectability,” effuses Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Tim McSweeney. “It connects to the beauty of the surrounds, plus waking to the sound of birdsong and the surf as well as watching dawn send shimmering rays over the Coral Sea, are all truly mesmerising.

“On a fitness level why not mix it with pleasure by walking to Noosa Heads via Alexandria Bay in the Noosa National Park, similarly vibrant Sunshine Beach village with its nationally known restaurants, cafes and bars.”

Facts & Features: Land Area: 547m2 House Area: 411m2 Design: Kidd+Co Designers About: house width beachside is 11.5m; land width 15.8m; custom-built cabinetry; blackbutt timber flooring, wood-burning fireplace; skylights, louvres, shutters, double height ceilings; airconditioner/ fans; garden gate to beach Kitchen: U-shaped; granite benchtops, pantry; Bosch oven, dishwasher; Panasonic microwave; Ilve 4-burner gas cooktop; Westinghouse fridge Location: dedicated beach access to dogfriendly North Sunshine Beach nearby; close to access for Noosa National Park; walk to Noosa Heads and Hastings Street via Alexandria Bay; popular restaurants, cafes, bars & boutiques at the Sunshine Beach village are nearby, also the Sunshine Beach Surf Club and patrolled beach ●

Also, on this level in the north wing, is the capacious master suite with a balcony, walk-in dressing room and ensuite with dual access also an indoor/outdoor shower.

A guest bedroom is currently used as an office/art space, and a U-shaped kitchen has granite bench tops and the latest Bosch appliances.

Downstairs the central gallery-like space continues and like upstairs on the oceanside, is a massive living space, this time with frameless glass running the total width of the house. An extraordinary living space to complement four extra-large bedrooms

with built-in robes. Two have sea views and two open out to the paved terrace, which not only surrounds the house in its entirety, but on the north-west side extends into a Mediterranean-style courtyard with frangipanis, a water feature and espaliered wall.

There is a spa bath in one of the two family-size bathrooms and the laundry room is huge.

There is so much to love about living in a striking residence in the front row of Seaview Terrace, with nothing but the sand and sea in front. “It scales the heights of

DESIGNER SHOWSTOPPER WHAT is not to love about sun-splashed days in a striking Trevor Reitsma-designed showstopper with unerring class, which commands an enviable vantage point, and views that arguably surpass all others on Noosa Hill.

Opening the statement door into the foyer and the open-plan over-size living spaces, is akin to taking a seat with the audience, in a beautiful theatre to watch the light and sun move across views over the Noosa River, Lake Weyba, its waterways, Mt Coolum, Mt Tinbeerwah and Mt Cooroy, throughout the day. Of course, an evening ritual is clutching a glass of bubbles and seeing the glorious sunset from the wide undercover deck and the glistening pool, which have an unequivocal connection to indoors.

With so much drama outside, it is fitting the interior is considered and calm, yet it exudes function and flair with lashings of natural stone and timber. It whispers rather than shouts ultra-luxe.

Central to the living area space is a

fireplace and making quite the statement is a bespoke black, glass and mirror-backed wall cabinet and bar with integrated Vintec fridges.

Complementing the ‘look’ is the very generous monochrome kitchen and scullery with black and timber cabinetry, white stone tops including the island bench, glass splashback with garden view, plus every accoutrement and top-end appliance on the entertainer’s wish list.

Also on the entry level, is an office with custom-built double desk and storage, a designated quiet space with floor-to-ceiling shelving for displays and books, also a guest bedroom with built-in robe, ensuite and 2-way powder room.

Upstairs is a serious bliss zone.

The king master bedroom has banks of plantation shutters, a fashionista-style walk-in robe and a fully tiled ensuite with double shower, separate toilet, freestanding bathtub, and for those who like a fresh start to a day, there is an alfresco shower (with verdant view) on the balcony.

Three additional bedrooms also have carpet and plantation shutters, built-in robes, one has an ensuite and two share a 2-way bathroom with double basin plus separate shower and toilet.

On the lower level when it comes to the ultimate recreational zone, it is here, and best described as a super man-cave.

There’s room for collectibles, cars, a pool table and pinball machines, bar area, powder room, bar area plus tiered theatre

seating with a data projector, screen, and surround sound system is all yours.

“Fall in love with the serenity of an endless summer and those spell-binding views,” says Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Rebekah Offermann who is taking the property to auction on Saturday 26 June 2021. “This residence is truly a star, more like 5-star really, and the prized location is highly sought after, as it’s in a quiet leafy street and is walking distance to Noosa Junction, with its many buzzy cafes and bars, supermarkets, cinema complex, boutiques, essential services and transport links.”

TWO HOMES ON 4 ACRES AND VIEWS HIGHLY sought after, this amazing property has dual living on 4.29 acres with incredible hinterland views.

Set well off the road, the main home is full of character, charm and a relaxed style that suits the location perfectly.

Even the barn door entry of this home will have you smiling.

Central open plan living, dining and kitchen area with raked ceilings throughout easily connects to the extra wide tiled front undercover terrace. Feature brick walls add to the home’s solid feel.

The house is serviced by town electricity along with solar power.

Whilst there is no need for further work, it would be ripe for a renovation if desired to add your own personal touches.

There are three good size bedrooms and two modern bathrooms having been updated in recent years.

A breezeway adjoins the main home linking it with a large lockup storage room, laundry, workshop area plus under cover parking for 3 cars.

Above the breezeway is an ideal work from home space that was once an artist’s studio and features timber floors currently used as a fourth bedroom.

Set away from the main home is the

absolutely delightful self-contained one bedroom cottage with 2 undercover carparks. Ideal for extra income or luxury guest accommodation, this cottage is also in excellent condition. Again, there are raked ceilings adding to the spaciousness feel of the open plan living which flows through to the extra wide timber verandah.

The northern views from the deck are absolutely stunning over local rolling hills towards Mt Cooroora and beyond.

Other features of this wonderful property include a sparkling inground pool that is solar heated and a fenced in sealed dam.

Gardens are all established and include a few lemon and lime trees. The property has a resident family of wallabies often visiting close by early in the morning. Toward the top end of the property the views keep getting better and from the eastern ridgeline there is a vista towards the coast and Mt Cooroy. Such a peaceful spot only

a couple of minutes’ drive to the thriving Noosa hinterland township of Cooroy and approximately 20 km to Noosaville.

There is an adjoining vacant block of land 4098m2 in size that is also for sale and will be auctioned immediately after this property. Why not buy both!

Inspections are at the bi-weekly open houses. Properties like this are rare to the market, so act quickly to be the winning bidder. ●

HOME FOCUS

WHY DOWNSIZE? THE REAL THING OLIVIER MILLER PRINCIPAL LAGUNA REAL ESTATE 0419 472 071

ACCORDING to a recent article in the Financial Review, more and more Australians are set to downsize their property over the next five years.

The Baby Boomers and some Gen Xers are cashing in on booming property prices to boost their retirement funds.

Frequently, that generation will move from their larger homes or homes on larger allotments, to smaller, more compact properties that require less maintenance.

Therefore, the demand for more low-rise medium density luxury apartments and standalone townhouses and duplexes will accelerate. This, plus the desire for an easier lifestyle and a move away from the congestion of the cities has prompted a strong interest in regional and coastal areas. Noosa and its surrounding regions

have proved to be a major drawcard.

Nearly 70% of those planning to downsize are aged between 60-70 years.

This generation recognises that they usually have significant equity in their homes to make a change, however, the general feeling is that prices are now at a record high and could feasibly start to peak.

Another key motivator to downsize is the cost of maintaining a home when children have departed.

Many “boomers” already have holiday apartments or second homes in the Noosa area, purchased originally with the intention of relocating when the time was right.

However, many are looking now to purchase and relocate within the next five years.

Discerning buyers who are looking to relocate usually have a list of specific

requirements such as good parking, one level or a lift over two levels, large living areas, butler’s pantry, study and low maintenance gardens. Overall, they seek a relaxed lifestyle as an alternative from city living.

Noosa offers all the lifestyle advantages combined with the benefits of proximity to Sunshine Coast Airport, upgraded to cater for future international travel, excellent choice of hospitals and plentiful shopping venues.

So if you have reached the stage of your life that is more about lifestyle, semi retirement or retirement, call in, have a coffee with our Laguna Team at any of our offices at Noosa Heads, Noosaville or Tewantin. They would be delighted to provide advice on buying and selling in the current market. ●

LUXURY LIVING NOOSA HEADS THIS spacious two-level villa has everything to offer the discerning buyer in the luxurious estate of Noosa Springs.

Featuring three bedrooms including the highly sought-after master suite on the lower level. The stunning master is complimented with a large walk-in robe and a very generous sized ensuite bathroom including double sinks, separate bath, and shower.

The master suite opens out onto the newly paved courtyard which can also be accessed from several points on the lower level including the living room which makes entertaining a breeze.

The newly built courtyard of this well thought out home is a showstopper. The sheer size and quality of the materials that have been used including an impressive water feature creates a beautiful outlook from every room on the lower level.

The lower level offers an open plan kitchen, dining and living room with a separate area that can be used for an office or sitting room.

Offering a further two bedrooms upstairs for family or guests, one a large king-sized

bedroom including a walk-in robe, a queensized bedroom and a large bathroom with a separate shower and bath.

There has been substantial work done for the new owners of this home including newly painted interior, new interior flooring and a newly paved courtyard.

No expense has been spared with Pacific Jarrah timber used for the large flower boxes and new rear deck. The courtyard is surrounded by lush gardens is quiet, totally private, tranquil, and fabulous for entertaining. Also, the luxury of having a pool without the cost and maintenance, a 100—meter stroll to one of Noosa Springs community pools and BBQ areas which is fantastic for entertaining or relaxing.

Noosa Springs is a world class estate with beautiful established gardens, access to the renowned 18-hole Championship golf course, restaurant, day spa, pool, and gym.

You could be anywhere in the world secluded in The Noosa Springs lush estate, but you are 5 minutes from famous Main Beach, Sunshine Beach and Noosaville, shops, and restaurants.

Inspection will delight! ●
