Safe and Healthy Business Award Winner: AVALON AIRPORT Situated on 1753 hectares, Avalon Airport Australia is a commercial aerodrome servicing the large regional catchment of western Victoria and providing a vital connection to interstate and overseas regions. The judges said that Avalon Airport Australia is a world class airport at the cutting edge of technology. Since it was purchased by LinFox Group in 1997, Avalon Airport’s passenger and freight operations have increased significantly. Evidently, the pandemic has had a detrimental effect on the industry, but Avalon has invested heavily in new technologies to ensure the safety of passengers and employees. New kiosk systems and automatic bag drop facilities mean that customers can now complete contactless checkins, while state-of-the-art Rapid Scan Systems allow for quicker and more effective scrutiny of

luggage at both back and front of house. These improvements impressed the judges, along with the implementation of new paid customer service officer positions, and a new bus system that ensures travellers have door-todoor services, as well as guidance on how to check in and keep safe at the airport. Avalon’s commitment to keeping employees and customers safe and healthy is second to none in the view of the judges. Further to technology upgrades at the airport, Avalon has maintained its high standard of staff training and support, including COVID testing, fire safety, first aid training, mental health support and career management assistance. The flexible nature of the business has put Avalon Airport Australia in good stead throughout the pandemic.

Having serviced the Geelong region since 2015, Jessica Anderson and her team at Crew Faced Makeup Artistry have won an award for the second year in a row. Offering makeup and hair services for weddings and events, photoshoots, education and workshops, Crew Faced Makeup Artistry offers mobile appointments as well as bookings from their Lara and Geelong West studios, seven days a week. COVID posed many challenges to the team, with Crew Faced’s new purpose-built studio launched the same day as Victoria’s first lockdown was announced. Jess and the team showed their resilience and problem solving skills by pivoting to online retail, launching her product range ‘Crew Faced Cosmetica’ in the Geelong region, securing stockist rights around the area.

Jess now refuses deposits for bridal bookings due to continuous business closures in lockdown, and the team has successfully rescheduled 89 bridal bookings within the first week of lockdown. Crew Faced Makeup Artistry is an inclusive and compassionate team, offering a free mobile service for those with limited mobility, all the while maintaining staff vaccinations, First Aid qualifications, and Police and Working with Children Checks. Collaborating with other businesses in the region to offer inclusive packages for photographic, editorial and marketing purposes, Jess and her team have impressed the judges yet again as proud sponsors of local businesses and not-forprofit organisations, supporting intra-community relationships and delivering a competitive edge that goes beyond product and price.

Family business Roderick Insurance Brokers is a locally owned family business, operating from offices in Geelong and Werribee. The team is led by managing director Keith Roderick who started the business in 1986. “We have a team of 40 highly experienced and qualified staff who are on hand to provide advice on any of your insurance needs. We strive for excellence in every aspect of our business,“ Mr Roderick said. “At Roderick Insurance Brokers we are passionate about providing you with the right advice to give you the peace of mind that you have made the right decision for your insurance. “We guide our clients through the full insurance process. First we get to know our clients’ needs, then we source the most suitable cover and, finally, we provide a personalised insurance

plan. We cover the full process from advice to complete claims handling. Our job is to make your life easier by lowering your risk. We are about building relationships with our clients to ensure their needs are understood and met.” Roderick Insurance Brokers first entered the GBEA Awards in 2012, winning a category for three years running. The firm was inducted into the Awards Hall of Fame in 2014 and continues to support the awards as a proud sponsor.

EML is an Australian-owned and operated personal injury manager, and since 1910 has focused on helping people get their lives back after work-related illness or injury. EML is excited to sponsor the 2021 Geelong Business Excellence Awards this year. “We want to help celebrate the successes of Geelong businesses,” says EML’s General Manager of Victoria, Elisa Hitchens. “It’s been another challenging year and we’ve all had to adapt under pressure. I take my hat off to the finalists and the winners – hopefully next year we can celebrate the awards in person again.” The 400-strong team in Victoria has supported employers and workers since being appointed an agent of WorkSafe Victoria in 2016. EML has recently doubled its team in Geelong to provide even more dedicated support, service and care to its regional customers. “We’ve been in Geelong for five years,” says Elisa. “It’s great that our business has grown and we have needed to employ more staff, taking us to a team of 50.” The EML team is excitedly preparing to move from its Pakington Street location to a newly renovated and well-appointed office space in Moorabool Street. “Supporting our regional customers is very important to EML. Our team adapted well to working remotely and using telehealth to help

customers during the pandemic. “However, I know our mobile case managers are really looking forward to being able to again get out on the road to meet with employers, workers and treating health providers face to face. “We know that this personalised, tailored approach really gets results, helping the injured worker to recover and return to work sooner. This is what drives our team at EML.”

Empowering your future workforce With a shared vision to unlock potential through flexible, innovative and quality education that delivers successful outcomes, The Gordon’s deep, synergistic partnerships with industry continue to empower current and future workforces. The importance of a strong education system is amplified by the significant challenges confronting today’s society. With The Gordon ideally positioned as a core social, economic and cultural partner to government, industry and community, the Institute is leading the response to these key challenges for the Greater Geelong region. “Our revitalisation strategy brings a vision grounded in building a stronger, more capable and highly skilled workforce,” said The Gordon CEO, Joe Ormeno. “Its bold aspiration sees education that is innovative at heart, focused on emerging challenges and building skills, careers and community prosperity.” Recent economic transformations have compelled many industries to pivot. To varying degrees there has been a realignment of priorities, means of working and delivering results, and creating new products and services while temporarily or permanently shelving others. This has seen many job roles change significantly. The regional employment outlook to 2024 also reflects a structural shift towards service industries, with healthcare and social assistance projected to make the largest contribution to employment growth in this period. Together with construction, education and training, and professional, scientific and technical services, these industries are predicted to generate over

80 percent of the region’s employment growth in the next five years. The Gordon’s tailored training solutions meet the customised needs of the workforce, incorporating micro credentials, short courses, certificates, diplomas and advanced diplomas. “Our suite of skill sets is constantly growing to meet industry demand and raise workforce capability while promoting advancement,” said Executive Director of Commercial Business, Jana Perera. “With over 200 accredited courses, we deliver courses online, on campus, at your organisation, and blended with a combination of intensive face to face and online delivery.” Ms Perera states that the realisation of the Institute’s plan will see education meeting the needs of future work, where students evolve as the world evolves around them. “Our industry workforce development training and leadership programs have been co-developed and co-designed with industry. These are delivered at your pace with the necessary support and resources to upskill and reskill all levels of the workforce to effectively enable the success of individuals, teams and organisations, both regionally and nationally,” Ms Perera said. “The time is right for us to challenge ourselves to be more agile, responsive and inno-

Cup comes up Roses

Locally-owned mare Tralee Rose takes out the Geelong Cup ahead of Dr Drill.

There were no crowds to witness Geelong’s biggest day in the racing calendar as a locally-owned mare claimed the Geelong Cup on Wednesday. The Symon Wilde-trained Tralee Rose, who was ridden by Dean Holland, took out the Group 3 race by half a length over Dr Drill. Focus will now turn to the Melbourne Cup in two weeks, with Tralee Rose guaranteed a place in the race. Wilde said after the race he believed Tralee Rose was a “genuine” chance to take out the Melbourne Cup. The five-year-old mare is part-owned by a group of former St Joseph’s College alumnus, who watched the Geelong Cup win from the Cremorne Hotel. Geelong Racing Club chief executive Luke Rayner said it was the highlight of the day to see a local horse claim the Cup. “It’s a really good story for the connections of Tralee Rose, who is trained in Warrnambool and part-owned by a group of people in Geelong.” Rayner said it was surreal to have an empty track on Wednesday for the second year in a row, but otherwise “it couldn’t have been a better day”.

Now a million-dollar town By Ash Bolt The median house price in Geelong has hit $1 million for the first time as demand for property in regional Victoria continues to grow, according to the latest data from the Real Estate Institute of Victoria. The REIV recently released its latest quarterly report, which showed Geelong’s median house price had jumped from $897,000 in June to $1 million in September. It followed the trend of growing house prices in the region, with the median house price increasing by almost one-third over the last

12 months. McGrath Geelong principal David Cortous said Geelong had seen a significant real estate boom in the past year. “The demand is there to point where we have seen a 20 to 30 per cent [price] rise in some suburbs,” he said. “Particularly in some of the quality suburbs, like Highton and Newtown, you’re really regularly seeing prices over $1 million … sometimes even for properties that are going to be knocked down. “Prices have gone up without a doubt and I don’t think we’ll see them come down again any time soon.”

Mr Cortous said the real estate boom, influenced by the pandemic, over the past 12 months had seen demand for houses in Geelong skyrocket. “Regional Victoria is seeing a real estate boom and Geelong was always pinned as one of the stronger markets,” he said. “Those larger regional cities that are close to capital cities have been the strongest markets, so being only 75 kilometres from the capital city, Geelong houses have been in demand from people looking for a bit more space, especially when people are spending more time at home.

“There’s also record low interest rates at the moment, which have made it easier to borrow money, which has impacted prices, but the market in Geelong was also undervalued.” Mr Cortous said the continued increase was also notable as Melbourne buyers had been locked out of the market for most of the last quarter due to lockdown. “I did have one property sell for $1.83 million recently to a Melbourne buyer sight unseen, but that’s not usual,” he said. “I expect that demand is still going to be there when lockdown lifts and Melbourne buyers are back looking to move.”

EPA slaps Viva Energy with fine By Ash Bolt EPA Victoria has fined Viva Energy more than $8000 for releasing harmful chemicals in the Corio Bay above its licence limits. The EPA said this week it had issued Viva Energy with an $8261 fine after it found the refinery operator had breached its licence when a heat exchanger leak in April resulted in the discharge of BTEX, containing benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene, three times its limit into cooling water and Corio Bay. EPA south west regional manager Carolyn Francis said BTEX was harmful to fish and aquatic life, but there had been

no fish deaths observed from the spill. “This should have been prevented,” she said. “Viva has now fixed the faulty equipment, improved its maintenance procedures and will be more vigilant in future, but, under the Environment Protection Act 1970, any licence holder who contravenes any condition to which the licence is subject is guilty of an offence and the fine is therefore warranted. “BTEX is toxic to marine life at elevated levels. There were no fish deaths or other impacts observed in this instance, but it is critical that licence conditions are adhered with to prevent impacts.” A Viva Energy spokesperson said the

company would not contest the fine. “Viva Energy is aware of the infringement notice issued by the Environment Protection Authority Victoria regarding the release of waste water with elevated levels of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene which occurred on 6 and 8 April 2021,” the spokesperson said. “The company does not intend to contest the matter. “Viva Energy notified the EPA of the incident as soon as we became aware of it. We have thoroughly investigated the cause of the incident and put in place a number of mitigation measures to ensure it does not happen again. “This includes increasing the frequency of

Cash boost for community groups Three community groups have shared in almost $23,000 of funding through community grants from EnergyAustralia. Look Good Feel Better, Lifeline Geelong and South-West Victoria and Elf Squad were the recipients of funding under the sixth round of EnergyAustralia’s Geelong Community Grants program. Lifeline Geelong and South-West Victoria received a $10,000 grant, which regional manager Jason Doherty said would make a positive difference to the mental health of the region’s residents. “We’ll put our $10,000 to good use, putting people across Geelong and south-west Victoria through our SafeTALK and Mind Your Mates training programs,” he said. “This will give them the tools to support people with mental health concerns –

something that’s been on the increase with COVID-19.” Look Good Feel Better also received $10,000 so it could hold 10 workshops for Geelong cancer patients to help them manage the appearance-related side effects of treatment. Geelong-based charity Elf Squad received a $2845 grant, which founder, Stephanie Beitzel said would cover about 85 per cent of the charity’s out-of-pocket expenses. The charity, which is coming up to its fifth Christmas, collects donations from businesses and the community to provide presents to between 500 and 1000 children in need across the region. Ms Beitzel said the grant would allow volunteers to continue their important work. “There are always costs associated with

running Elf Squad, from having groups come in to be elves, equipping businesses across the G21 as drop-off points, producing signage and dispatching,” she said. “We don’t want to be using donations to cover those costs, so that’s why the grant is so important. “We’re fully run by volunteers so this means we can just get on now with supporting families in crisis in an enriching way.” EnergyAustralia customer care leader Jim Salter-Duke said his team was excited to be funding three worthy initiatives. “EnergyAustralia is one of the largest employers in Geelong, with hundreds of people in our contact centre.

Barwon Water managing director Tracey Slatter said she knew many people in the region were passionate about water and the role it played in the lives of every living thing. “Being in the water industry, National Water Week is a very special week in our calendar,” she said. “This year’s theme, Caring for water and Country, encourages us all to reflect on the relationship our First Nations people have with the environment, and how they cared for the lands and waterways we now live and work on over many thousands of years. “By acknowledging and exploring this deep cultural connection, we further develop our understanding of how best to overcome the challenges and impacts of climate change in our region, while maintaining a focus on the health of our lands and waterways.” Held in October each year, National Water Week is designed to highlight and celebrate the important role water plays in the lives of every living creature. To celebrate the week, Barwon Water partnered with the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning, along with other Victorian water corporations and catchment management authorities to co-host an online event designed to help everyone “Explore your backyard”. This week, live webinars, on-demand videos, fun experiments, book readings and a other resources and activities will help people explore their backyard, local park or waterway, and use water efficiently. National Water Week runs until Sunday.

Connecting job seekers with work across Barwon region The Gordon Institute of TAFE has been awarded a contract to run the federal government-funded Local Jobs Program for the Barwon region. The program, which is designed to support Australia’s economic recovery from the pandemic, will operate until 2025 and bring together experts, resources and funding to help the region focus on upskilling for new employment pathways. Gordon chief executive Joe Ormeno said the program would “build on the great work already under way in the region”. “Working in collaboration with key stakeholders, the Local Jobs Program will

support the Barwon region’s current and future labour requirements, as well as provide job seekers the skills and support required to get back into the workforce or transition to meet the demands of our region’s growing industry sectors,” he said. Two newly-appointed employment facilitators will drive the roll out of the Local Jobs Program, with focus on raising education attainment levels, increasing workforce participation through training and growing emerging industries through targeted skills development. Skilling the Bay manager and employment facilitator Carley Brennan

said the program would benefit the region. “The introduction of the Local Jobs Program in the Barwon region provides our communities with a tremendous opportunity to better connect job seekers of all descriptions with jobs that exist now and with those that are emerging in our local labour market,” she said. Training and reskilling opportunities are expected to include tailored non-accredited training, professional development, and job seeker mentoring, work experience, and employment pathway and internship programs. Joining Ms Brennan as an employment facilitator is Tracey Jeffery, who will work with

employers, employment service providers and training organisations to drive the development of a Local Jobs Plan. Ms Jeffery will also support stakeholders to create targeted projects that meet the priorities of the plan, and work with organisations that apply for funding through the Local Recovery Fund to ensure employment opportunities are maximised. The program will leverage the work of Skilling the Bay who, in collaboration with key stakeholders, is developing a Regional Skills Strategy to support a socio-economic recovery and the ongoing delivery of education, employment and skills initiatives.

The leaders of several Geelong faith congregations came together this week to came together to call on the federal government to do more to address the climate emergency. Leaders of Queenscliff Lonsdale Anglicans, All Saints Anglican Parish Newtown, Drol Kar Buddhist Centre, St Bernard’s Catholic Parish, Uniting Church Geelong, and Shaykh Mohammad Ramzan held peaceful vigils at the offices of Corio MP Richard Marles and Corangamite MP Libby Coker on Monday to encourage parliament to do more. Queenscliff Lonsdale Anglicans Reverend Peter Martin said the multi-faith group had come together to encourage federal politicians to set “more ambitious climate targets”. “We all come from different backgrounds but we all share the moral and spiritual challenge to look after all other beings and ensure that

all life flourishes,” he said. “Our aim was to influence policy and convince them to get over their political interests for the greater good, because we haven’t got long left. “Our faiths are diverse but when we all come together, that’s a pretty powerful symbol. “Unfortunately we weren’t able to talk to Richard Marles … but we were able to have a chat with Libby Coker about what we wanted to see done to address the climate issues.” The action tied into a wider-ranging ‘Faith 4 Climate Justice’ action movement across the world on the same day. It also followed each of the congregations involved holding their own private gatherings on Sunday to spread the climate action message.

Surf Coast Shire Council has cancelled its New Year’s Eve fireworks in Lorne this year. “While it’s disappointing, an event such as New Year’s Eve fireworks celebrations presents significant challenges relating to QR code check-in of attendees, contact tracing and social distancing,” Surf Coast Shire Council environment and development general manager Ransce Salan said. “The Public Events Framework doesn’t provide clarity on how to manage a non-ticketed mass crowd event. This is particularly challenging for events such as New Year’s Eve fireworks.”

Road closed for works Mt Duneed Road between Hunts Road and Willowite Road in Freshwater Creek will close on Monday for the next two months. The Surf Coast Shire said the road would be closed for eight to 10 weeks to allow road safety works around the railway overpass to happen. The area had been identified as high risk, particularly at the sharp s-bend under the railway line. FOR BREAKING NEWS, VISIT Web: geelongindy.com.au Facebook.com/GeelongIndy Twitter.com/GeelongIndy

Working on making Shed a home By Ash Bolt Construction work is set to start soon on the Mt Duneed Men’s Shed’s new home. The 30-strong group has been meeting in temporary sites over the past few years, but works to prepare its new permanent site, at Sovereign Drive Sporting Reserve, started last week. Construction work is expected to start soon, with the project to be completed by February. Mt Duneed Men’s Shed president Merv Poyner said he was rapt to see the build start

but it would still be several months before the group was in the new shed. “It will be good that we’ll be able to get back to what we love doing, which is making things for the community, such as for schools and other community groups,” Mr Poyner said. “We’ve really appreciated what we’ve been able to do [at temporary site Foundation 61] but this will be the big step for us. “Once we get into the new shed I think we’ll double in size very quickly.” The Mt Duneed Men’s Shed is one of 14 groups in the region that provides members

with a welcoming space to meet others with similar interests and learn new skills. Members develop their skills in metalwork, woodwork and restoration, often while working on projects that give back to the community. Mt Duneed Men’s Shed projects have included making bench seats for local schools, rocking horses, wooden Christmas trees and, more recently, helping build the garden beds and propagation table for a new community garden in Warralily Estate. The new shed received a $595,000 budget allocation from the City of Greater Geelong,

as well as an $80,000 grant from the state government. Deputy mayor Trent Sullivan said the group, and all Men’s Sheds, were incredibly valuable to the community. “We know the Mt Duneed Men’s Shed has been eagerly awaiting this new facility and what will soon become their new home,” he said. The shed will also include a multipurpose creative space that will open the facility up for broader community use, with the design including scope for the inclusion of a community garden in the future.

Search for platypuses Community spirit was on show recently as more than 60 community members gave their time to look for elusive platypuses in the region’s waterways. Two COVID-safe events were held earlier this month at Fyansford Common and Inverleigh to look for platypus, with participants also learning the importance of the native animal to the health of the local rivers. The project was an initiative of the Friends of the Barwon, with support from the Tucker Foundation, Bendigo Bank, Barwon Water, Surf Coast Shire, Golden Plains Shire, City of Great Geelong, Geelong Landcare Network, Corangamite Catchment Management Authority and Upper Barwon Landcare Network. It was part of the Friends of the Barwon’s push to collect data and build a picture of the overall health of the Barwon River system, so areas of improvement can be identified.

EnviroDNA ecologist Josh Griffiths said a plentiful platypus population was a good indicator of the health of a river system. After demonstrating the sampling technique, volunteers were sent out to take water samples for eDNA analysis from sites stretching across the mid Barwon River, the Leigh River and the Moorabool, as well as the smaller tributaries. Participants also learned about waterbugs living in the waterways, which serve as a food source for the platypus, and other creatures that call the Barwon River home. With samples collected, they will now be analysed by EnviroDNA to detect the presence of platypus. Anyone interested in the outcome of the platypus survey can contact project coordinator Andrea Montgomery via email at glnplatypus@gmail.com. Ash Bolt

They’re the best in the business By Justin Flynn

Winners

Home Instead Geelong is the 2021 LBW Business + Wealth Advisors Geelong Business Excellence Awards Business of the Year. Established in 1986 and managed by Geelong Chamber of Commerce, the awards were held on Tuesday night in a virtual event and recognised organisations that have achieved business excellence in the Geelong region. Home Instead Geelong’s husband and wife team of Giovanni and Giselle Siano started the business and were keen to make a difference to the way that care is provided to seniors. In less than three years, Home Instead Geelong now employs more than 200 people and delivers more than 12,200 hours of care each month to seniors. Home Instead won three awards on the night. It also won Emerging Business and Mr Siano won the Young Entrepreneur of the Year. “I have no words to describe the gratitude and thank you to all the sponsors for tonight for the Geelong Business Excellence Awards and to the Geelong Chamber of Commerce to make this great event happen,” Mr Siano said. “I would like to express my immense gratitude to all my staff to be embarking on this amazing mission that we all share. “Pushing through the challenges we have gone through the last three years has been an enormous challenge for everyone but we are getting through that.” The overwhelming message from the night can be summed up in one word – ‘resilience’. All award winners and nominees said that although the pandemic presented unique challenges, the resilience of staff and volunteers had shone through. CentreStage won the Health & Wellbeing Promoting Workplace award and managing director David Greenwood said

it was his staff that deserved all the praise. “I’m very lucky that I’ve got this most amazing team of staff and volunteers and this really reaffirms that we are in the right direction to support our students,” he said. Lee-Anne Camorra of You’re Gorgeous Hair & Beauty, which won the Retail Business award, echoed the theme of resilience. “My team is just amazing and it just shows the resilience and strength that we have together as a team and we really pulled through,” she said.. “It’s been one of the toughest years for us both professionally and personally and I’m so, so proud of these guys, they’re just amazing.” Ash Bent, CEO of Sketch & Etch, which won the Digital Engagement award, said: “It’s a huge reflection of what the team have achieved over the past 18 months,”.

Lighting up with Christmas hope

Total Events’ Hayden McClure and Scott Parker have begun work on the sound and light show for the Floating Christmas Tree. (Supplied)

Geelong-based company Total Events is hard at work finalising the Sound and Light show for the arrival of Geelong’s famous floating Christmas tree. A behind-the-scenes tour of the Total Events workshop in North Geelong has revealed sound and lighting engineers hard at work as the days count down until Christmas. City of Greater Geelong mayor Stephanie Asher said the city was proud to work with local companies on the Christmas program to create jobs and support skilled tradespeople. “COVID-19 has had a devastating impact on our events and entertainment industry so we’re proud to work with a local company on our biggest show of the year,” she said.

“There’s never been a more important time to get behind the hard-working tradespeople and small businesses in our local community.” Total Events has worked on the light and sound for the city’s Christmas centrepiece for the past six years. Total Events project manager Scott Parker said this year’s lighting program would be sequenced with soundtracks featuring a Christmas classic written by Louis Armstrong and a chart-topping disco and funk song. “We’re working hard to test all the lights and synchronise them with the soundtracks,” he said. Mr Parker said winning the contract for the light show was a great boost for the company.

“The event industry has really struggled with the lockdowns, and the continued venue capacity limits mean that live event work is still significantly impacted,” Mr Parker said. “Prior to the pandemic we employed 12 full-time staff and a pool of around 20 casuals. Now we have six full-time staff and no casuals. “It’s been a tough time. “Getting the contract to light the tree is so important for us because it’s a big project that our whole team can sink their teeth into. “We’re also conscious that people across our community want to something fun to look forward to after two pretty ordinary years. We want to help people have a happy Christmas and bring some joy to families and children.”

Councillors are ready to listen

The Anakie and Norlane communities will have the chance to raise issues with their local councillors tomorrow through the return of listening post sessions. Windermere ward councillors Anthony Aitken and Kylie Grzybek will be available to chat informally to their constituents about any topics of interest at two sessions on Saturday. The first session will be held from 9.30-10.30am at Anakie Community House, before the councillors head to the Norlane Community Centre for a second session from 11.30am-12.30pm. An initial round of listening posts was held in May, with further sessions for the Brownbill, Bellarine and Kardinia wards also planned. Cr Grzybek said she was looking forward to visiting Anakie and Norlane after previously holding listening posts in Lara and Corio. “These sessions are a good chance to connect with people face-to-face in a relaxed environment,” she said. “Everyone is invited and encouraged to come along and speak with us about any council matter they want to raise.” Cr Aitken said the sessions were important for councillors to gain an understanding of the distinct issues facing each town or suburb. “As councillors we need to represent each community equally, and being there in person to speak with residents helps us to do that,” he said. “It’s also an opportunity for the community to find out about council projects already underway.” All community members are welcome to attend the sessions, with no requirement to pre-register.

SOUTH AFRICA WITH GREGG WALLACE SBS Food, Saturday, 7pm

AUSTRALIA UNCOVERED: THE CHILDREN IN THE PICTURES SBS, Sunday, 8.30pm

Who’s Gregg Wallace, you ask? Well, if you are a MasterChef junkie far and wide, you’ll know him as a judge on its British version. Here, the foodie (pictured) sets out on a safari around Africa, experiencing its unique landscape, getting up close with its animals and, of course, its food and wine. Across six episodes, Wallace’s fervent delight in gallivanting across the country is palpable. If he isn’t grinning like a cat that got the cream, he’s swooning over food or wildlife. Wallace starts his journey on a safari through the Amakhala Game Reserve, in the Eastern Cape, finishing the day with a campfire.

Disclaimer: This is not comfortable viewing. Yet it is crucial viewing that sheds light on the dark reality of online child sexual abuse and the incredible work of Task Force Argos, an Australian police investigative team charged with rescuing children from this abhorrent industry. With interviews from top detectives such as Jon Rouse (pictured), The Children in the Pictures follows investigations to infiltrate global criminal networks. While they deal with daily observations of the very worst in human nature, it is hope that keeps them going and, in so doing, they represent the very best of humanity.

JUST BETWEEN US ABC TV, Tuesday, 9.25pm

Good stories told by good storytellers don’t need anything flashy: the tale and the telling is enough to captivate any audience. In this new series, storytellers – some you’ll recognise, others perhaps not – talk straight to camera to reveal intimate secrets and sometimes shocking truths that make up the fabric of their lives. In the first of two parts, ‘There’s Something I Want To Tell You’, we hear from Tamara who kept her famous mother secret; we learn how presenters Tracey Holmes and Stan Grant (both pictured) flipped their story; how a BDSM madame keeps secrets; and why Yumi Stynes wants to scream.

Seniors festival kicks on

David Arden has been performing for seniors and elders for more than three decades. (Pictures: Supplied)

By Tara Murray Lockdowns have left many older people feeling alone and isolated, with activities they once took part in no longer available. Local groups couldn’t meet up in person, and for some people, the technology world was a step too far. Many haven’t seen their families in weeks, with cuddles and kisses put on hold. While the state gets ready to open up, this year’s Victorian Seniors Festival is putting a smile on the faces of many people. This year’s festival theme of ‘Keep’n On’ recognises the resilience of seniors after a difficult 18 months. The festival aims to connect with some of Victoria’s most loved and celebrated performers and includes performances for seniors who are looking to develop a greater understanding of diversity. The festival wants to remind people to continue to try and live their lives despite the pandemic. This year’s festival is a mixture of in-person and online activities, due to the pandemic. Seniors living in regional Victoria have been able to connect through a range of local, in-person events, while come and try tai chi classes are set down for Keilor, Werribee and Bundoora, if restrictions allow. Those in lockdowns haven’t been forgotten about, with a range of online musical performances, radio series, talks and shows from a wide range of Victorian entertainers. The festival includes a number of performers who are returning to be part of the event once again, while some are stepping up for the first time. At 90 years of age, you could forgive Elizabeth Chong for taking a step back and relaxing. But she continues to provide inspiration for other seniors. “I feel I have a role to play there for seniors,” she said. “If they feel like that I can inspire and get people there, I’m happy to do it. “I think perhaps they see me as a role model. A lot of people pre-empt their lifestyle when they get to this age. “I’m lucky I’m still active enough and I want to inspire them a bit.” 14 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 22 October, 2021

‘‘

I’m lucky I’m still active enough and I want to inspire them a bit

’’

– Elizabeth Chong Ms Chong, who has been involved in the festival on a number of occasions, has made a name for herself as a prominent Chinese-born, Melbourne-based Australian celebrity chef, former cooking teacher, author and television presenter. She is a pioneer of the industry and was the first celebrity chef and promoter of Chinese cuisine to Australian households. She said the lockdowns had taken away one of the most important elements of cooking – sharing with friends and families. For this year’s seniors festival she has joined forces with her granddaughter Teresa Duddy who shares her love of performing and family. The two made a video talking about their relationship and lives. “We’ve worked alongside each other before,” she said. “She is a trained opera singer and done quite a lot of performing. “We were able to sit down and have a

conversation around a piano and I’m looking forward to being able to do it again.” Ms Chong’s biggest message is for seniors to stay positive. David Arden has been performing for seniors and elders for as long as he can remember. The Kokatha, Gunditjmara singer and songman has graced the stage for more than three decades, alongside acts including Archie Roach, Ruby Hunter, Bart Willoughby, Mixed Relations, Dan Sultan, Paul Kelly and Hunters and Collectors. Through song, Mr Arden reminisces on his childhood of being raised by four mothers and imagines what it would have been like to grow up with his grandfather. This is his first time being part of the seniors festival. “I had heard of the festival and they were interested in me to be part of it this year,” he said. “It’s a great opportunity to feel a little bit normal and be part of an event. “Because of the lockdown it will be streamed into people’s houses and they will log on when they are ready to.” He said this year’s theme was really relevant due to the ongoing pandemic. “I remember when I was 15 years old and played music to my elders,” he said.

“I’m a storyman and storyteller who sings to tell their stories.” Others who will be performing as part of the festival are Ross Skiffington and Sam Angelico, who will perform magic acts from their days at the Last Laugh Comedy Club in Melbourne. Djoliba Rattler Quartet will play upbeat West African-inspired music and Jacob Papadopoulos and Sarita McHarg present an enticing India meets Greece collaboration. This year also marks the launch of the new Victorian Seniors Festival Reimagined podcast – Women, Arts and Activism – which dives into historical events and the lives of inspiring women from different cultures. Radio content this year includes Lux Radio Theatre presenting Fergus Hume’s Victorian classic, The Mystery of a Hansom Cab, and Sandy Greenwood’s powerful and award-winning play The Matriarch. The annual seniors free public transport week – a fixture of the festival – will return once restrictions allow. Seniors can listen in via their local community radio station or tune into video broadcasts and radio programs from the comfort of their own home until the end of the year.

Delivering high-quality workmanship at a fair price Keleman Motors is a well-respected name in Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula and has been for more than 40 years. Shane Lockyer and Joe Atkinson took ownership of the region’s only independent Mazda specialist three years ago and Shane says it’s meticulous workmanship and customer focus that’s seen them continue building on a solid foundation. “We offer a strictly honest approach to workmanship of the highest quality,” Shane says. “We’re also known for our fair prices.” The duo each has more than 15 years’ experience in the trade and make sure looking after their customers is a top priority as they carry out servicing and repairs to all makes and models. “There’s just the two of us in the workshop,” Joe says, “so customers can talk directly to the mechanic actually doing the work. And we always take time to explain in detail any issues their car may have. “No work is ever carried out without approval, but we’ll recommend what a vehicle needs. Then the decision is left to the customer whether to go ahead.” Shane finishes by saying, “It’s just a two-man show but we do it right – price and quality-wise.” Keleman Motors, Factory 3, 13-15 Crown Street, South Geelong. Opens 8am-5.30pm Monday-Friday; by appointment Saturday. Inquiries: 5229 9555 or visit www. kelemanmotors.com.au

SPORT Keen to take to court for new season LOCAL TENNIS Donna Schoenmaekers With the senior and junior draws now finalised, teams will be keen to see who they will be up against this summer season. Highton will be looking for a better year than last with its 13 junior and nine senior teams. The 2019-20 scoreboard was disappointing for Highton with only a handful of teams making finals, and only two making grand finals, without being able to get over the line. Near neighbour Wandana Heights will also be well represented with 14 junior and 11 senior teams. With a great spread of grades through the competitions it will be good to watch how the juniors have improved from last year, and with three teams in Senior Section 3 Mixed, whether they can dominate the section, as they did Section 4 Mixed last summer. St Mary’s continues to produce a good number of junior teams which are working their way up the section list, and two new teams joining the Green Ball ranks. The runner-up from Seniors Section 5 Mixed will be back again in the afternoons having

moved up to Section 4 to test its skills at a higher level. Geelong East Uniting has added a mixed team to its two men’s teams in the senior ranks, after only fielding men’s teams for the previous two summers. Last summer’s Section 3 Men runner up will be facing tougher competition in Section 2, while with a change of personnel the previous Section 4 team will line up in Section 5. St Albans and Sutherlands Creek are back with their usual teams again this summer.

St Albans will be liking its chances in Section 2 Mixed, while Sutherlands Creek will be hoping to improve on its third place from last year’s Section 8 Mixed finals series. Leopold Tennis Club has a bumper summer season planned for junior competition with seven junior teams, including three new teams entered at beginner level, and two senior teams. The club attributes this substantial increase on previous seasons to new families moving to the area and the excellent coaching by club coaches Ry Davies and Karen Filippou. Leopold has also partnered with neighbour Moolap to form a combined Green Ball team. Moolap junior co-ordinator Phil Hunt has been instrumental and inspirational in keeping the kids interested in tennis and ready for competition, by having regular practice sessions on Saturday mornings – lockdown permitting! This will have them well prepared for the season ahead. On the seniors front, Moolap has five teams entered, three men’s and two mixed, with a change up to the combinations of each. We will have to watch and see how these changes pan out.

(Cats Media)

Dan the man to lead Cats Geelong has finalised its coaching line up ahead of the upcoming AFL Women’s season. The team will be led by former Cats midfielder Dan Lowther, who was appointed senior coach in June, after inaugural coach Paul Hood stood down. Lowther had previously been an assistant coach at the Cats during the 2021 AFLW season. Lowther previously played 34 AFL games for Geelong between 1996 and 2001. He will be supported by five familiar faces returning to the coaches box in 2021. Former Adelaide Crow Jess Foley will step into an assistant coaching role this season, after serving as the Cats’ ruck coach in 2021. Foley, who also doubles up as the men’s

team doctor, will be in charge of the defensive unit. Josh Finch and Aaron Black will also return as assistant coaches. Finch was the Cats’ defence coach, but will work with the midfield group for the 2022 season, while Black will again be in charge of the forwards. Elise Coventry also returns as a development coach. Coventry was part of the inaugural Cats AFLW squad and played 30 VFLW games for Geelong before retiring due to an ACL injury. She joined the Cats as a development coach ahead of the last season. David Morgan rounds out the coaching group and will continue as bench coach. Geelong head of AFLW Brett Johnson said the club was pleased with its coaching group.

“This coaching group will look familiar to a lot of people, it’s been a matter of those internally taking on new roles which is exciting,” he said. “We have seen a number of coaches step up, with Dan Lowther now leading the group and Jess Foley stepping into an assistant coaching role. “Jess has made a fantastic contribution in a range of areas over her first year at the club, and we are pleased to see her recognised. Jess is already leading our defenders super well, and we’re looking forward to seeing her develop as a line coach.” Geelong finished the 2021 season in 13th place, picking up one win from its nine games. The fixture for the 2022 season, which is set to start on January 6, is yet to be released.

Plenty of tuna biting offshore ON THE BITE Peri Stavropoulos It has been quite a crazy fishing week for the local and coastal anglers with barrel tuna going mental offshore. Just about every day there has been reports of up to five fish being landed with most weighing over 100kg and getting to over 140kg. Trolling skirted lures around the coast in anywhere from 50-70 metres of water has been super effective with JB and Tornado lures being that standout skirts. When the fish have been holding down deeper drifting pilchards down has been working an absolute treat as well. Peri Stavropoulos and Bryce Nurnaitis from Trellys Geelong fished alongside Owen Westwell Monday morning in search of barrel. After a few hours of trolling the boys were hooked up and after an hour fight the fish was on the boat and weighed in at 125kg. Back inside the bay there has still been plenty of snapper starting to get caught with the outer harbour starting to produce some seriously quality fish. Snapper up to 7kg have been taken with Clifton Springs proving to be one of the many hot spots, the channel is always well worth a look too. Just a couple more degrees in water temperature is all we need and they should bite very well. Currently at Trellys Geelong there is a snapper comp being held for the biggest fish of the season with a massive prize pack up for grabs, go in store for more info. Queenscliff is still the place to be if you’re chasing some fresh calamari with the bight offering some fantastic fishing at the moment. Anglers have been finding their bag limits in good time with the deep water producing the better quality and quantity of squid. Size 3.5 jigs in the Shimano Clinch range working a treat, with the dirty water the flashing mirror and rattle models have been deadly as of late. The Queenscliff cut has also been fishing very well for silver trevally and pinkie snapper all biting very well on soft plastics. Gulp turtleback worms have been a standout lure to throw around, fishing the slack tide has also been a very important factor. The Otway streams and rivers have been well filled up after a few weeks of rain and are fishing very well for brown trout. Just about every system is fishing very well with plenty of fish being caught and at quite a good size, which is good to see as they don’t tend to get very big in there.
