Glossies’ despair Shock, anger, despair and sadness were emotions expressed by Glossy Black Cockatoo (GBC) protectors when the Uniting Church gave the nod on Tuesday for a section of wallum habitat that supports the largest population of Noosa’s GBCs, recently listed as endangered by the Federal Government, to be obliterated. For the past couple of years Spencer Hitchen, 11, and Glossy Team Sunrise have led a campaign to protect the Sunrise Beach habitat from being cleared for the proposed development of a residential aged care home and retirement village. The campaign has garnered support with more than 60,000 signatures and a land swap offer from Noosa Council, but four days before Birdlife Australia’s Great Glossy Count, clearing went ahead “on schedule”.

Police investigations culminated last week in the arrests of a serial rapist and drug dealer with links to organised crime, as well as two further arrests following a stabbing at Tewantin. A former Noosa AFL player and Brisbane nightclub owner were arrested over the weekend by police as part an ongoing drug crime investigation code named Operation Sierra Stallion. Noosa senior sergeant Ben Carroll said Butch Graham Smith of Noosa was charged with 63 offences including cocaine trafficking, possession, production and commercial supply of cocaine, and eight counts of money laundering including one count of money laundering knowingly involving serious organised crime. Smith appeared in the Brisbane Magistrate’s Court last Saturday and was remanded in custody to reappear in court on Monday. Also arrested in the operation was Angus Robert Cattanach, owner of the X Cargo nightclub in Brisbane’s Fortitude Valley. Cattanach faced charges of cocaine traffick-

ing, supply and possession as well as production of canabis. Sen Sgt Carroll said the police operation had been ongoing since October 2020 with Noosa Heads detectives sharing intelligence with Brisbane CIB. “The investigation into this group has revealed a sophisticated network of shopfront style businesses which were utilised to launder funds for drug supply activities,” he said. To date 25 people have been charged with 250 offences in the operation with 11 people charged with drug trafficking and money laundering. In another investigation Noosa police received complaints from four additional women over the weekend against a security guard who was arrested on Thursday 17 March and charged with 39 sex offences against four females. More women have come forward this week across the Sunshine Coast with police investigating a further 15 complaints bringing the

number of victims to 19, aged from 15 years to mid-20s. Sen Sgt Carroll said the 23-year-old Maroochydore man, Callum Luke Westcott Fisher, had worked as a security guard in both Hastings Street, Noosa and Ocean Street, Maroochydore over the past 12 months from January 2021 and February 2022. The man was initially charged with 39 offences against four females, aged between 15 and 21 years. The charges include rape, attempted rape, torture, strangulation, deprivation of liberty, indecent treatment of a child under 16, disabling in order to commit an offence, extortion, computer hacking, stealing and stalking following a joint operation by detectives from the Sunshine Coast Criminal Investigation Branch and the Sexual Crimes Group. Police allege incidents involved a protracted series of incidents which included stalking, hacking computer devices, accessing social media accounts, breaking into a home and

exerting coercive control and threats over the victims. Detectives executed a search warrant at a Sunshine Coast address where they arrested the man. He appeared in the Maroochydore Magistrates Counrt last Friday and was remanded in custody to appear before the court again on Monday. Operation Uniform Strix was commenced after police received a report through the QPS Alternative Reporting Option (ARO) from one of the women, and subsequent investigations identified three other victims. This operation remains on-going with detectives appealing for anyone with information relevant to the investigation to contact them. Snr Sgt Carroll asked if there were any further women in Noosa who are able to provide evidence or wished to make a complaint against the man to contact Noosa police station on 5440 8111, come to the station or report online via: forms.police.qld.gov.au/ launch/SexualAssault.

Death of community man Community worker and volunteer Dave Roberts has passed away. He was a loving father and grandfather and a selfless worker for his community. His funeral will be held at Noosa Catholic Church, Moorindil Street, Tewantin at

After spending the past two years or more in an attempt to save a relatively small but extremely important piece of land at Sunrise Beach a group of environmentalists was crushed on Tuesday to see their hopes dashed when, in a few hours, excavators destroyed the land. As fire and development have reduced the habitat for south east Queensland’s Glossy Black Cockatoo, Grasstree Court had become one of their last remaining safe havens - an area with a permanent waterhole and feed trees where they could bring their young. The Glossy Sunrise Team has taught the community much over the years about the glossies, their very fussy feeding habits. They have taught us lessons about the environment, about development laws, about commitment and dedication to a cause. The lessons learnt will not go unnoticed.

Heartbreak for glossies By Margie Maccoll Blue Care’s Sunrise Beach development approval should have been reviewed after new information on the importance of wallum habitat to vulnerable species surfaced, but state and local governments are constrained to uphold historic approvals by the Planning Act, an environmentalist told Noosa Today on Tuesday. As the excavators mowed down vegetation for the development’s Lot 6, earmarked for a residential aged care home, one protestor, Luc, said environmental information had been updated since the development was approved in 2011. “But because our Planning Act was written for developers, and due to economic realities, relevant up to date information relating to environment conservation is being overlooked,“ he said. “The first environmental assessment in 2011 relied on mapping that marked the area as cleared but it was burnt. Being burnt doesn’t make that non-remnant. “In 2011 when the approval was given, Lot 6 and the northern part of Lot 9 (earmarked for a Blue Care retirement village) were not mapped by the state as essential habitat for species of conservation significance. Today, these areas are considered essential habitat with records of 10 threatened fauna and flora species within one kilometre (two bird species, two mammal species, six plant species). “The fact that both Lot 6 and Lot 9 are being used for rearing Glossy Black Cockatoo (GBC) fledglings has been overlooked. Glossy fledglings are dependent on their parents for feeding for one and a half to two years, and when habitat is used for rearing young it meets the definition of animal breeding place. “As such, a breeding places assessment should have been carried out and a permit to tamper with breeding places should have been sought from the state in accordance with the Nature Conservation Act and Nature Conservation (Animals) Regulation 2020.” He said the remaining pockets, which for Noosa wallum adds up to only 70 hectares, becomes more vital as more and more land has been cleared. Luc said the new information had come to the Uniting Church and they should have submitted a new assessment. “We’ve been trying to stop this for years,“ he said. “We have the support of council but their hands are tied. We have the support of the Department of Environment but there’s nothing they can do - it’s the legislation. “We emailed the Federal Department of Environment and Energy, who have just recently listed the GBC as Endangered. Apparently because the matter was referred to them a couple of months before the bird was listed as Endangered, and has been assessed for significant impacts to other matters of national significance such as koalas, it cannot be re-referred for significant impacts to the GBC.“ Distraught GBC supporters held protest banners outside the development site fence and urged the workmen, Caruthers Contract-

ing, to stop. Bruce Caruthers told the group they’d be in breach of their contract if they stopped work. “If you can get someone to stop us we’re happy to stop,“ he said. Spencer Hitchen said he was “shocked“ at the destruction. His father Gerard was “angry and upset“. “Originally I thought we’d chain ourselves to the trees but that’s not helping our cause. We need to record this and share it.“ The clearing comes just four days before Birdlife Australia’s national GBC count, the Great Glossy Count, to be held on Saturday 26 March. At the last GBC count in September 2021, there were only 164 of the area’s subspecies observed across SEQ and northern NSW, with 25 per cent of those birds occurring at one site in Noosa - Grass Tree Court, Sunrise Beach. Residents questioned the timing of the clearing, particularly after hearing the construction had been put on hold. Project building contractor, Badge Construction’s procurement manager Robert

Osborne-Marker confirmed the build was on hold with no firm date for commencement. “It’s contingent on the early works,“ he said. A Uniting Care spokeswoman said Blue Care was committed to delivering the Sunrise Beach aged care and retirement living precinct, saying it “would address a critical shortage of aged care beds in the Noosa region“. “We have made a significant investment in designing the precinct and have secured development approvals from Council, State and Commonwealth Governments. We are now going ahead with construction of Stage 1 of the precinct, the Residential Aged Care Facility.“ Council’s manager for development assessment Kerri Coyle recently said the developer had all the necessary approvals in place for the project to proceed as a staged project, with Lot 6 to be cleared first for the aged care component and Lot 9 (for self contained retirement units) not permitted to be cleared until the required offset planting had been undertaken. “To also address the habitat loss from the site, the developer is required to implement a five-year vegetation clearing offset program and propagation and replanting of Glossy

Black food trees at a ratio of eight-to-one from the parent tree,” she said. Retired barrister and former Peregian Beach Community Association president Barry Cotterell attempted earlier this year to set in motion a last-minute intervention from the State Government through the Minister for Resources. Minister Scott Stewart has the power to issue an Interim Declaration under the Vegetation Management Act 1999 Section 18 over the whole of Lot 6 and Lot 9 because of the imminent threat to the area which is of high nature conservation value, he said. Noosa MP Sandy Bolton said the loss of the Glossy Black Cockatoo habitat at Sunrise Beach was understandably devasting for our community. “As we have done since 2019, we continue to assist with state government processes wherever we can,” she said. “As with any levels of government or issue, when a process, policy or piece of legislation no longer serves our communities as it should, we must put forward the changes sought to prevent reoccurrences, and meet community expectations.“

Noosa Boating Fishing Alliance is gaining momentum through their Oppose 6 Knots petition.

Mark Wacker at Noosa River.

Boaties reject speed limit A group of recreational boaties and fishermen have said no to the proposed Maritime Safety Queensland’s (MSQ) proposal to create a permanent six knot zone from the Noosaville boat ramp to the river mouth. Noosa Boating Fishing Alliance is gaining momentum and, in just three weeks, has grown to over 500 members with 1425 signatures on the Oppose Noosa 6kt Limit e-petition. Their objective is to stop or amend the proposed permanent speed limit reduction in the river.

Noosa Boating Fishing Alliance representative Andrew McCarthy said the group was committed to a safe Noosa river with balanced rules for all. “MSQ has stated this proposal focuses on safety and is concerned with increased river traffic,” he said. “Their safety concerns are how different types of watercraft, swimmers, and powerboats interact in three tight areas in the lower river. “This move will stop large numbers of regu-

lar river users enjoying the river safely the way they chose to. “Slowing boats heading to the river mouth at 6am is not a safety issue when the river is quiet. The same can be said for late afternoons, evenings and many core daylight hours in the offseason.” The Noosa Boating and Fishing Alliance state that outside core daylight hours during peak holiday periods (8am – 4pm), the river is quiet. Mr McCarthy said, “It should be said that 20

knots is equivalent to 37kph, which is slower than the reduced speed limit at school zones.” The NBFA supports a compromise to the existing proposal – timed six knot zones in two of the lower river narrow sections. Cr Amelia Lorentson has presented the Oppose 6 Knots petition to the Noosa Council General meeting on 17 March, and in a small win for the NBFA, MSQ has extended the public feedback period to 31 March 2022. A No to 6 Knots rally will be held on Sunday 27 March from 2pm at Tackle World Noosa.

Councillors were told that officers and Council’s planning solicitor had corresponded with the owners on numerous occasion on the STA’s ongoing operation but the owner had continued to use the property for STA. Councillors were told a final letter would be sent to the owner prior to lodging the matter with the Planning and Environment Court. They also heard the owner had lodged a

superseded planning scheme request with Council in 2021 to permit the use of the property for STA. The request was refused by council officers. The owner has also lodged an application for Short Stay Letting under the new Local Law which has not been decided. The report recommended councillors authorise the chief executive officer to commence legal proceedings on behalf of Council in the Planning and Environment Court and councillors voted in favour of it.

Spokesman Matthew Noffke told Noosa Today: “Substantial points of evidence confirm that site locations identified in the Site Selection History Report are the final site selections. “Following high profile media highlighting issues on these sites, particularly at Poona Lake, various authorities are suddenly saying that these sites are not final and are still subject to review. “However, no material evidence has been provided to support this new claim. As example of this lack of substance: if the mapped site at Poona Lake is not the final selection, precisely where are the alternative sites in conten-

If no such alternatives exist, how can the identified Poona Lake site not be the final selection?” As previously reported in Noosa Today, Poona has become the flashpoint for opposition to the project, both for its position in the Noosa River catchment and its First Nations significance as a birthing site. Mr Noffke continued: “The process explicitly demonstrates a core function of placing commercial tourism objectives above the protection and preservation of ecological values within our National Parks. Such process is unacceptable to the majority of the Queensland public and should not be progressed via stealth and misrepresentation.” Mr Noffke was also critical of a lack of trans-

parency relating to the state Department of Tourism’s funding of $1.5 million to the Great Walk in its 2021 budget and a further $700,000 promised in 2022, to which Sandy Bolton responded: “This funding has not been ‘given’ to Noosa, as it is allocated within the department’s budget for the entire project which covers two electorates, Noosa and Gympie, and is managed by them.” While the saga of the Cooloola Great Walk continues to be played out in Brisbane, Noosa Today understands the two departments involved, Tourism and Environment, have started responding to community concerns with a better flow of information expected in the coming weeks. The proof will be in the pudding, as they say.

A former tour guide from Rainbow Beach has become the first Indigenous stakeholder to go public with concerns about the scope and purpose of the planned commercial Cooloola Great Walk. Russell Bennet, described as “an emerging elder and local Kabi Kabi spokesman”, told Cooloola Coast Today: “It’s just not right. They want to take a pristine rainforest and start knocking down trees and letting the sunlight in there. There aren’t any weeds in there now, but once you knock down a few trees, and you’ve got vehicles going in there, they’ll be tracking the weeds in, in no time.” Mr Bennet told Cooloola Coast Today journalist Donna Jones: “I’m concerned this will set a dangerous precedent and you’ll have private companies developing other National Parks. This is not environmental - it’s about making rich people richer. They’d be better off giving that money to operators to do Indigenous tours and make a few jobs for the locals.” Noosa Today has been tracking developments in the Cooloola Recreational Area over several articles since the beginning of the year, and this reporter has been told on more than one occasion that, while the Kabi Kabi Traditional Owners Group is working closely with South Australian based CABN corporation on the upmarket glamping proposal – involving the construction and servicing of more than 20 eco-cabins along the walk -- there is a significant number of First Nations people in the region, not necessarily Kabi Kabi, opposed to this use of the land. Russell Bennet confirmed that two weeks ago to Cooloola Coast Today. Meanwhile, Cooloola-based environmental groups are getting increasingly agitated about a perceived information void from the Queensland Government on the Great Walk development, although sources close to the project told Noosa Today that part of the problem was people not understanding the process. Following last year’s limited community consultation, the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) report released in August outlined the proposed site uses and cleared the Great Walk project of any further responsibility at federal level, however, Noosa Today understands the project is still very much a work in progress, with site selection subject to state environmental controls. Noosa MP Sandy Bolton confirmed this in her Noosa 360 newsletter of 10 March: “Further to previous updates and following discussions between Sandy [Bolton] and [Environment] Minister Scanlon, and also her staff, we have been advised that [while] a document listing sites for cabins/safari tents was sent as part of the EPBC referral process, these were only proposed sites to allow the EPBC to consider the project, who subsequently found that this project is not a controlled action as defined under the EPBC Act … Regardless of the EPBC findings, there are still environmental assessments and processes required at a state level, before finalising the locations of the sites and going before the Minister for final approval. At the time of writing, this final sign

Man stabbed in Tewantin Police have arrested and charged a 20-year-old man and 15-year-old boy after officers were called to a Tewantin home on 15 March following reports a man had been stabbed. It will be alleged at around 10.50pm a fight broke out between two men and a teen boy in the carpark area of a Poinciana Street licenced venue, during which time a 35-year-old Sunshine Coast man was assaulted sustaining stab wounds to his shoulder and chest. He was taken to Sunshine Coast University Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Two males fled the scene in a car with patrolling police spotting the car in McKinnon Drive, Tewantin a short time later and starting a pursuit. The pursuit was abandoned with police alleging the car was driven dangerously, at excessively high speeds, travelling over double white lines and onto the incorrect side of the road. Further investigations lead police to a Werin Street, Tewantin address where a struggle

ensued before the males were arrested. Twenty-year-old Kayzer Zion Priestley of Tewantin has been charged with 21 offences including unlawful wounding, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, evade police, stealing, receiving tainted property and obstruct police. Some charges relate to robberies from 1215 March at houses in Shorehaven Drive and Aquamarine Circuit, Noosaville and Goodwin Street, Tewantin. After appearing in the Maroochydore Magistrates Court on Wednesday 16 March he was remanded in custody to appear in court on 20 May. A 15-year-old Tewantin boy, also arrested at the Werin Street address, has been charged with 21 offences including unlawful wounding, stealing and obstruct police. He appeared before the Maroochydore Children’s Court on 16 March, was denied bail and was due to reappear on 23 March.

Knife carrying charges across the Sunshine Coast Since 1 February, there have been over 15 occurrences on the Sunshine Coast where a person has been dealt with whilst being in possession of a knife. The ’I live my life… without a knife’ awareness campaign was launched late last year across the Sunshine Coast district in a bid to educate the community on the implications of carrying a knife in public. “If you carry a knife, ask yourself what you’re willing to risk. The choices you make can impact the rest of your life and have consequences for you, your family and your

friends,” Senior Constable Rebecca McMeniman said. “Under Queensland law, you can’t carry a knife in public, including in a vehicle and self-defence is not considered a reasonable excuse for carrying a knife.” On 3 February, a 60-year-old Mooloo man was charged with a knife-related offence at a location in David Low Way, Marcoola. The man is due to appear in Maroochydore Magistrates court on 25 March. On the same day, a 17-year-old Campwin Beach boy was cautioned in relation to pos-

sessing a knife in a public place on Sunrise Beach. On 8 February, a 37-year-old Maroochydore man was arrested by police for possessing knife in a public place and was remanded in custody to reappear in Maroochydore Magistrates Court on 21 March. The following day, a 24-year-old Cooroy man was intercepted by police on the Bruce Highway near Cooroy. The man was found in possession of a knife and was charged with other offences. He has been remanded in custody until 28 April.

Agri-hub plan on the road By Phil Jarratt Councillor Tom Wegener’s dream of a Noosa agri-hub promoting and facilitating homegrown food is not only fast becoming a reality – it’s going on the road to sell the concept this week. Agri-hub community meetings will be held at Cooroy Community Hall on Sunday 27 March from 4-6pm, at the Black Ant Cafe, Kin Kin on Monday 28 March from 6-8pm, and at the Sunshine Beach Surf Club on Tuesday 29 March from 6-8pm. The community meetings are a call to action for farmers, food producers, landowners, businessfolk and interested members of the community to help create a vibrant and productive regenerative agriculture economy envisaged by the Rural Enterprise Plan of 2019, but put on hold during Covid. Now Cr Wegener, who is president of Permaculture Noosa and council representative and a board member of Noosa Biosphere Reserve Foundation, is leading from the front with his personal vision of a 10-year plan to make Noosa the good food bowl of the country, if not the world, just in time for the Brisbane/SEQ Olympics. He’s even renamed Cooroy’s community garden the Olympic Garden (with a plaque to prove it) to prove he’s fair dinkum. Back in December, when he first outlined the agri-hub vision to Noosa Today, Tom said: “Basically, the past mantra was go big or get out of farming. Mono-cropping, mechanisation and chemical fertilisers were the farming standard. In Noosa, small farms could not compete in the modern model, and since then, many farming lands, including hobby farms, have become idle and degraded. But now things have started to change. Farming practices are becoming more focused on micro, intensive farming where crops

agriculture and food systems”, which outlines as its priorities, “Support agri-businesses and landholders to create a sustainable and regenerative food system that includes consideration and preparation for climate change risks … Promote sustainable, locally produced food and improve local food access for farmers, residents, visitors and vulnerable people.” Cr Wegener saw that the rationale and the funding would come not from the Economic Plan but from the CCRP. He got a small grant from council and started putting the pieces in place, from the ground up. Now, after a summer of planning exactly how this might work, Cr Wegener and the agencies backing Agri-hub, including Noosa Biosphere, Noosa and District Landcare and Country Noosa, are ready to sell it to the community.

According to the councillor, the pitch can be broken down into four basic areas: Education – explaining what can grow sustainably in our climate and soil and how regenerative farming can improve the value of land. Getting people on the land – creating a model for farm agreements that would facilitate returning and new farmers to increase the value of currently unused land. Getting green waste out of landfill and into farms where it can be used for biochar and compost. Creating an effective supply chain for distribution of the produce. Proving that actions speak louder than words, Cr Wegener has already lobbied local restaurants in Cooroy, and the owner of Fika Cafe is now supplying him with a drum of green waste a day – all of it going into the Olympic Garden at Cooroy Community Garden.

Cr Tom Wegener with Country Noosa president Tom Kendall. and animals work in harmony to produce abundance, and regenerate the land. Noosa residents are seeking out locally grown food knowing it is organic, healthy and supports the local community. “The foundations are now being laid for a rebirth of local farming. But there are substantial obstacles. The first is that small local farming, with current organisations, is not financially viable. Noosa land is very expensive, and along with the costs of machinery, labour, fertilisers and advice, it’s uneconomic. On top of this, the land in many cases has been degraded, and climate change poses greater uncertainty.” While Cr Wegener’s ideas on creating a local farming renaissance bubbled away, Noosa Council was in the final stages of debating its Climate Change Response Plan. He paid special attention to “Theme 6: Sustainable

Mr Beachley is perhaps better known as Kirk Pengilly, the multi-instrumentalist star of legendary rock band INXS, but in the surfing context he cheerfully stands in the background while his wife of a dozen years is in the spotlight. But for Kirk the shining moments whenever he and surfing superstar Layne travel for work are the ones when they can escape to a quiet corner of a restaurant with friends and enjoy good food, wine and conversation. Such was the case when we got together at the Boardwalk Bistro on a rainy afternoon. We certainly ate and drank very well on the day, but Kirk had something special for me, having missed a milestone birthday through Covid lockdowns. He reached into his pack and pulled out a pale pink bottle of his first-run signature 2021 KP Rose. I loved the bottle – featuring Kirk’s trademark horn rim glasses, pencil thin moustache and goatee - as much as I know I’m going to love its contents, when I’m allowed to drink them. But why rose? Kirk takes up the story: “When I met Layne on a blind date, the likelihood of us hitting it off was slim. We were from completely different worlds. My livelihood was nocturnal and hers was diurnal. I worked inside and she worked outside. I drank white wine, she drank red. Then we discovered rose, something we both loved. “Late one night, on tour with INXS, Layne asked me, ‘What do we have in common that will keep us together?’ I answered, ‘Rose.’ “Now, nearly two decades later, I wanted to make a rose that celebrated our marital bliss.”

So, how did it come about and what does Kirk know about making wine? “Not much. But I know what I like and, I’m learning. Coming from a background of rock stardom, I’d sampled a lot over the years but never actually thought of making wine. “I guess it really starts with a cellar and an appreciation for good wine, then an idea from a friend – let’s make some.” The journey began over five years ago with Kirk’s friend Craig, pushing it along and a winemaker lined up, but then Craig took a job in the US and the project went onto the backburner. But in early 2020 Kirk was staying with some friends near Byron Byron and mentioned that he’d been toying with the idea of putting out a rose. Says Kirk: “That planted a seed in the friend, Mike’s mind, having tinkered with wine making himself, and a few months later he mentioned he’d been in touch with awardwinning McLaren Vale winemaker Rob Mack (Aphelion) who was interested. “After a bunch of conversations and some rose tastings, we formed KP Wine. Here we are, 18 months later, with our first run of rose – a mixture of Grenache and Mataro organic grapes grown in the best vineyards in McLaren Vale. We love the end result and trust you will too.” Having drunk some special wines in special places around the world with Kirk over the years, I have no doubt whatsoever that I will. But Kirk’s parting words are ringing in my ears: “Drink it with (wife) Jackie on a special occasion. It’s that kind of wine.” As I write, our fifth grandchild is due any day. That’s pretty special. I’m looking forward to both events with approximately equal anticipation. (Better make that 40/60 in favour of the bub.) KP Rose will soon be available at select Noosa restaurants.

Flood response review Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has announced a review of Queensland’s response to the flood event that so severely impacted the south-east of the state. The independent review will be undertaken by Inspector-General Emergency Management Alistair Dawson. The Premier welcomed the review. “This is how we constantly improve our response to natural disasters,” the Premier said. “Learning from the last event makes us better prepared for the next.”

Emergency Services Minister Mark Ryan said that during his tenure as Inspector-General, Mr Dawson had delivered several key reviews to government including the 2019-20 Queensland Bushfires Review and the K’Gari (Fraser Island) Bushfire Review. “Whenever there is a major natural disaster like the devastating flooding event we have just witnessed in south-east Queensland, we will call upon the Inspector-General to conduct an independent review. “The role of the Inspector-General was rec-

ognised by the Royal Commission into National Natural Disaster Arrangements as a leading example of continuous improvement and best practice that has worked successfully and that similar arrangements to the Queensland model would be desirable for other jurisdictions. “The unfortunate reality is that Queensland is the nation’s most disaster-prone state, and while we get a lot of practice responding to these kinds of events, we are always looking to see if we can do things better. “That is the Inspector-General’s job, to ex-

amine the response to the floods, and see if there are any lessons that can be learned, or improvements that can be made to the way we deal with these events.” As part of the independent review, the Inspector-General Emergency Management will be inviting submissions from the public and will host some public forums. The Terms of Reference and further details about how to make a submission will be made available on the Inspector-General’s website at igem.qld.gov.au

Community battery plan for Noosaville welcomed pense of installing one in their own home. It’s a win, win, win. It’s good for household bills, good for emissions reduction, good for energy grid stabilisation”. Zero Emissions Noosa Inc chair Anne Kennedy said, “Zero Emissions Noosa Inc is delighted with this announcement. ZEN Inc has been working for some time on having a community battery or batteries in the Noosa Shire to help business and households to get full advantage of their solar power by having a community battery or batteries to store the solar power for use when the sun doesn’t shine. “A community battery will reduce their power bills, reduce emissions and enable the solar power generated in the local area to be used in the local area.” Mr Bowen said the batteries being announced would, in the future, be joined by other community batteries that were community-led.

Zero Emissions Noosa Inc has welcomed last Thursday’s announcement by Climate Change and Energy Shadow Minister Chris Bowen that Noosaville would be the site of a community battery under a Labor government. According to Mr Bowen: “In Noosaville 40 per cent of people have solar panels on the roof. That’s higher than the national average because of beautiful temperature, beautiful and sunny. People are harnessing that solar energy for their own needs. But of all those 1700 people or so who have solar panels on the roof, only 30 have a battery, and that means they’re missing out on savings and missing out on emissions reduction. “Under an Albanese Labor Government, we will install a community battery here in Noosaville.

City Deal set to deliver Noosa residents would enjoy improved community infrastructure and investment in local jobs, while businesses in emerging industries would also be supported as part of the South East Queensland (SEQ) City Deal, announced on Monday. More than $3.58 million of funding will kick-start liveability projects across Noosa, plus the region will have access to more than $400 million in funding pools through the SEQ City Deal announced on Monday 21 March 2022. The SEQ City Deal is a 20-year partnership between the Australian Government, Queensland Government and 11 councils which make up the Council of Mayors (SEQ) which provides a shared commitment to transform SEQ and deliver region-shaping infrastructure. It will deliver a significant foundation investment of more than $1.8 billion that will generate thousands of local jobs, boost digital and transport connectivity, enhance liveability and support one of the fastest growing regions in the country. Noosa Council Mayor Clare Stewart said the Deal investment highlighted the important role Noosa and the south-east would play in the future prosperity of Queensland and Australia. “The foundation SEQ City Deal delivers investment towards community infrastructure, creating new jobs and planning for a more affordable, connected Noosa,” Cr Stewart said. “Enhancing our region’s liveability is also a Deal priority with a $3.58 million investment in community infrastructure that could include sporting facilities that will help provide our region’s youngest residents a running start to 2032.” The Mayor said the region would also benefit from more than $400 million in funding aimed at creating new jobs, supporting emerging industries, enhancing local environment

Noosa Council Mayor Clare Stewart highlighted how the South East Queensland (SEQ) City Deal would benefit Noosa. and boosting innovation and connectivity across the South East. “We know growth is a huge issue and the Deal will invest $5 million to jointly identify the infrastructure and land use planning needed to keep pace with our population growth. This will enable better investment by all tiers of government and industry towards things like transport and services,” the Mayor said. “It also includes more than $105 million to improve the region’s waste infrastructure,

building on the Council of Mayors (SEQ) Waste Management Plan and furthering the southeast’s transformation towards a cleaner, more sustainable region. “Our local rivers, waterways and bay will also receive a needed boost with an additional $40 million over the next five years towards delivering priority, on-ground works to improve their overall health and resilience through the Council of Mayors (SEQ) Resilient Rivers Initiative.”

Noosa Council formally joined Council of Mayors (SEQ) in November 2021. Council of Mayors (SEQ) Chair and Lord Mayor of Brisbane Adrian Schrinner said the deal is a critical step towards ensuring the south-east corner can cater for a booming population and is ready when the world’s biggest sporting event arrives in just over a decade’s time. “This deal demonstrates what great things can be achieved when all levels of government work together,” Cr Schrinner said. “There might not have been a time in our region’s history when such co-operation has been so critically important. SEQ is experiencing significant population growth as more and more Australians discover our unmatched lifestyle and want to call our region home. “We’re also a decade away from the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games which presents a unique chance to showcase our region to the world while establishing a legacy that can continue to deliver for the generations to come. “This City Deal puts us on a path to manage population growth, deliver the best-ever Games and, importantly, improve the lives of all of our residents through ongoing co-operation. “We look forward to continuing to work closely with industry and the other levels of government to empower the SEQ City Deal to deliver the needs of our rapidly growing region.” City Deals are an approach to bring together the three levels of government, the community and the private sector. This partnership focuses on aligning planning, investment and governance to accelerate growth and job creation, stimulate urban renewal and drive economic reforms to secure the future prosperity and liveability of our region.

New gallery turns heads A new art gallery in Tewantin is set to turn heads with the launch of The Re-remembering Exhibition on Friday 1 April from 6.30pm till 8.30pm. Gaiungan Gallery owner and artist Peter Muraay Djeripi Mulcahy would love to invite you to experience the deep and abiding stories that accompany each one of his fine art creations. This accomplished aboriginal artist is committed to culture while his signature fine lines, exquisite attention to detail, and deep and stirring stories continue to set him apart. The Gamilaroi man has been a cultural teacher and professional artist for close to 30 years, where his work has been sold both nationally and internationally since 1995. Mu-raays Djeripi’s passion is infectious, and at the heart of all he paints, writes, and speaks, is a desire to reach his audience with knowledge gained from elders and spirit. His works reflect the old in the new, the ancient light from which we all emerged. “My work is not about division, it’s not about ‘the other’, it’s about the uniqueness of the land and spirit on which we now all stand,” he said. “My creations hold within them the forever stories of the universal becoming. “Each work is a memory of time spent with my beautiful old people. Finally, and most importantly, they carry the essence and spirit that awoke in the time of Gamil Bidi Wii (the time before the Great Light). “I believe as my old people knew, if we could only remember how great we were, we could reignite the flames of our future greatness.

Health experts say the best exercise is whatever exercise you’ll actually do. For some people that’s taking their dog for a walk every day, for others it’s running a half marathon. But for a growing group of Noosa locals it’s roller skating. They’re getting their endorphin hit and burning calories by roller skating at the Noosa Leisure Centre. Noosa hairdresser, Tanya, was looking for a way to stay fit and have fun when she decided to take up roller skating again, a hobby she’d enjoyed as a teenager. But kids, work and the general busyness of life meant she hadn’t skated in years. In 2015 she asked her family to buy her a pair of roller skates for Christmas. She found it was like riding a bike and in no time, she was skating around her neighborhood a couple of days a week. But she soon discovered that skating on uneven pavements was risky, and even carparks that were empty on Sundays in her youth were no longer an option as they are full of cars seven days a week these days. Af-

ter hitting a gum nut and injuring herself, she knew she needed to find a safer option. Enter Cathy and her team at the Noosa Leisure Centre which has an indoor stadium with huge, smooth, timber floors. Tanya and Cathy put their heads together and started a roller skating group where Noosa locals could roller skate in a safe indoor space, have fun and get fit at the same time. “We found that roller skating was becoming really popular again and that the idea of skating inside where it’s warm in winter and cool in summer really appealed to people. We have men and women and a range of ages,” Tanya said. “I think the most senior skater was 84 years old which is amazing!” The group meets every second Sunday. You can even hire roller skates if you don’t have your own pair. Keen to try roller skating, any of the group fitness classes or indoor sports?

Helitak reaches new goal From a factory tucked away in the Noosa Hinterland, this outstanding company is taking on the world and winning. Continual research and development leads to new evolution of airborne firefighting tank technology to aid in accurate and faster water dispersal onto bushfires. On the back of their announcement late last year that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) had approved seven additional Sikorsky Black Hawk Type Certificates on the Helitak FT4500 Black Hawk STC, Helitak has now received certification for the Super Puma Fire Tank. In 2019, European rotary operator Heli Austria reached out to Helitak in a bid to fast-track the development of the Helitak FT4250 Super Puma fire tank. And while the pandemic delayed the process, three years of hard work has come to fruition with FAA issuing a Supplemental Type Certificate last week. An Australian aerial firefighting design and manufacturing company, Helitak has been specialising in rotary aircraft fire suppressions systems for over a decade and

their tanks are widely recognised for their innovative retractable design that maximises head pressure and delivers high volumes of water and retardant in an unmatched drop pattern. Helitak chief executive officer and founder Jason Schellaars said, “The advantage of our tanks is that they are lightweight, offer large Type 1 water volume capacity and have easy plug-and-play operations that deliver a perfect and controllable drop pattern every time.” The STC Certification project was overseen and managed by US Technical (Aviation Products, Services, Engineering and Certification) based in Southern California. In addition to continuing to work with Helitak on a number of projects, US Technical will be the Parts Manufacturing Approval (PMA) house for this product. The Super Puma tank offers a plug-andplay underbelly tank that can be installed or removed in less than 25 minutes, requires no costly aircraft modifications and is the only external Super Puma tank offering 1000 gallon+ capacity.

Harry Neal and his mum spent precious time reflecting on the past, enjoying the moment and looking to the future and what it may hold.

Symbolic of the past years of overcoming uncertainty, the dawn sun pushed aside the threatening rain clouds to allow a large group of Good Shepherd families to begin a special journey together. The Year 9 students at Good Shepherd commence the Rite Journey program as part of their Christian Studies program over Years 9 and 10. It is a program honouring the transition from young person to young adult and is a collective partnership between student, parent, teacher/ mentor and broader College community. The official launch of the program is the Calling and Departure ceremony, with close to 100 Year 9 students and their families attending. The Calling encourages students to show gratitude for their childhood and calls them on their journey to young adulthood. The second component to the ceremony is the Departure, which involves parents, carers and teachers/mentors joining the students for an opportunity to learn, reflect and look forward. Program coordinator Nicole Drew said, “Students and parents were able to connect through reflection of memories of significant events or items from the child’s formative years. Then, together as a family, the notion of transitioning from child to young adult and what this process would challenge students to let go of or change was discussed over breakfast. “We even had families in isolation who had their own special Calling ceremony which was really lovely.” Mrs Drew went on to explain, “Our Year 9s and their families gathered on the beach, not only because this is a local landmark, but because it is where the river meets the sea and becomes something bigger, something stronger, something broader. This analogy was the focus of our ceremony and used intentionally

New clinic brings ‘releaf’ By Abbey Cannan A new medicinal cannabis clinic and dispensary offering ’releaf’ for patients in need has opened its doors in Noosa Heads. The site in Hastings Street is the second Releaf Group franchise to open in Queensland and has already received more than 100 new patient enquiries from the local community. Releaf Group founder and chief executive officer Gary Mackenzie said expansion into Queensland was prioritised due to high patient demand. “We know there are thousands of Queenslanders who are looking for a multidisciplinary approach to healthcare and we’re pleased we’ll soon be in a position to offer this at our four new clinics,“ he said. “We chose Hastings Street as it’s a popular tourist destination. It’s only a small site but I think it’ll be great for the travellers and the Noosa community.“ A cancer survivor himself, Mr Mackenzie used CBD oil three years ago and says he preferred it as a safer, non-addictive pain management option. “Studies have shown promising results for a variety of other conditions ranging from sleep disorders to Parkinson’s disease, severe epilepsy and anxiety with new research findings emerging almost every day,” he said. Founded in 2017, Releaf Group is Australia’s first dedicated clinic and dispensary group formed to simplify the consultation process and access to a range of medicine for patients in need. Offering a fully integrated health care service, Releaf Clinics are multidisciplinary providing a range of services including orthodox medical services, medicinal cannabis prescribing, pharmacy and a retail shop carrying supplements and health foods. “Only the medicinal products require a prescription, so we also have therapeutic prod-

Doctors have been able to supply medicinal cannabis to patients for specific medical conditions since 2016. Amendments to the Narcotic Drugs Act permitted both legally-grown cannabis, as well as the manufacture of medicinal cannabis products in Australia. The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) governs the Special Approval Scheme (SAS), which allows certain health practitioners to access therapeutic goods that are not included in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG). The SAS provides a

pathway for prescribers to access medicinal cannabis for individual patients on a case-bycase basis. According to figures from the TGA up to 30 June 2021, the TGA has approved over 130,000 SAS Category B applications for unapproved medicinal cannabis products with figures showing a steady monthly increase. “While our doctors are trained in medicinal cannabis prescribing and our pharmacists are also trained in its use, medicinal cannabis is only one potential therapeutic option for patient health conditions and suitability is assessed on an individual basis in consultation

with the doctor,” Mr Mackenzie said. “Our doctors will need to consider whether a person’s condition could be helped by medicinal cannabis. “If anyone’s interested in seeing a doctor, it’s quite a simple process. Feel free to contact the clinic and book in for an appointment.“ Releaf provides telehealth consultations with clinic doctors via phone and video chat for those not living close to a clinic. Find Releaf Clinics at Shop 2, 3-9 Hastings Street, Noosa Heads. For more information about Releaf Clinics, visit releafclinics.com.au

The Guide FATHER BROWN ABC TV, Saturday, 7.30pm

PICK OF THE WEEK

Step back into the 1950s and revisit the picturesque and charming town of Kembleford, the fictional village set in the Cotswolds. Father Brown returns for its ninth season, with the guarantee of murder and intrigue brimming in the idyllic farming locale. In “The Menace of Mephistopheles”, the titular hatted clergyman (Mark Williams, pictured) faces a confounding mystery when Sergeant Goodfellow (John Burton) turns to him for help after he witnesses Inspector Mallory (Jack Deam) frame an innocent man.

THE DOG HOUSE AUSTRALIA 10, Tuesday, 7.30pm

Real-life stories of hardship and tragedy intersect with an assortment of furry, slobbering, cute canine friends in this week’s heartwarming episode. Dr Chris Brown (Bondi Vet) may not be on screen to show off his megawatt smile, but his familiar voice guides us through the emotional rollercoaster of finding the perfect companion to adopt from a shelter. One-eyed Maltese Harlie (pictured) has not had a whole lot of love in her short life, but could Karin, who recently suffered a terrible accident, be the charming canine’s perfect match? Along with two other inspiring dog adoption stories, this stirring series proves that love really does come in all shapes and sizes, with various assortments of hair.

GRAND DESIGNS NEW ZEALAND ABC TV, Sunday, 7.40pm

They say a man’s home is his castle, but what one person considers to be attractive and inviting, the other may find dull or intimidating. With Sumita and Cameron Dale (both pictured), it’s fair to say their dream home doesn’t really lend itself to any of these adjectives. The married ex-police officers shun convention by buying a plot of land to build their “lighthouse” dwelling. Their strict budget and unusual home design results in a building unlike any seen on this series. Tune in to read into presenter Chris Moller’s reaction. THE AMAZING RACE Seven, Monday, 8.40pm

Where there’s a will, there’s a way for a big-budget extravaganza such as The Amazing Race. Teams kicked off this 33rd season of the competition in February 2020, then resumed filming more than a year later in September 2021. Now, it’s the final leg, with three teams left: flight attendants Raquel and Cayla (both pictured), internet personalities Kim and Penn, and best friends Ryan and Dusty. Filmed using a private jet to avoid COVID complications, the $1 million cash prize seems like a drop in the ocean in comparison.

Why net zero is important By Anne Kennedy, Chair, Zero Emissions Noosa Inc. What is zero net greenhouse gas emissions? You have probably heard scientists and commentators talking about emissions reduction and climate change. But what does it all mean for us as everyday folk? And what can we do about? Zero Emissions Noosa Inc have recently had a series of community forums on this topic to outline what it is, why it is important, and what we in the Noosa community can do to help our planet. Net zero emissions is keeping the scales of the atmosphere in balance. Humans produce greenhouse gas emissions from our everyday activity and they are added to our atmosphere. Many of us try to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions by reducing our carbon foot print, whether it be installing solar PV on our homes or businesses, riding our bikes to get around instead of driving our petrol or diesel car or buying locally grown food to save on transport emissions. By doing these things, we are reducing the amount of emissions that go into the atmosphere and helping to get the scales of our atmosphere closer to being in balance. If we have the amount of greenhouse gas emissions going into the atmosphere being equal to the amount of greenhouse emissions coming out of the atmosphere, we can say we have net zero greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Why do we need to get to net zero? From

A recent ZEN community forum. the IPCC reports and other scientific data, we know that human influence has warmed the atmosphere, ocean and land. We have data to show that the last decade has been the hottest in 125,000 years. As the ocean absorbs most of the heat we produce, you might be surprised to know that our oceans

have sucked up 90 per cent of the heat gained by the planet between 1971 and 2010. CO2 emissions are at their highest in 2 million years. Since the mid-1990s, we have lost around 28 trillion tonness of ice. Today’s ice melt rate is at 1.2 trillion tonnes a year. All of this is helping to cause climate change

and the extreme weather events that we are now experiencing across the world. Climate change is here now. It is not something that will happen in 20 or 30 years time. We need to get to net zero greenhouse gas emissions in Noosa Shire to help reduce the effects of climate change and natural disasters so we keep the wonderful place we enjoy living in. How can we do our bit to help? In 2016 Noosa Council developed an emissions reduction policy target of zero net greenhouse gas emissions by 2026. Zero Emissions Noosa Inc is working with the Noosa community to help get to the target of net zero community emissions by 2026. You can help the Noosa community to reach this target by talking to your friends and neighbours about why we need to get to net zero, reducing your family’s car use by walking, cycling, using an electric bike, buying an electric car, switching to solar PV or buying green power, being energy efficient by installing LED lights, increasing your A/c temperature to 25 degrees, using appliances in off peak times - your dishwasher and washing machine. Or, if you have solar PV, run your dishwasher and washing machine in the middle of the day. You can also join Zero Emissions Noosa (ZEN) Inc as a member to support our work, join one of ZEN Inc’s project groups or activities - come to the EV Expo on June 19 at Noosa Junction or use the ZEN Inc website zeroemissionsnoosa.com to help get the scales in the atmosphere back into balance.

National win for locals Noosa can proudly boast a bronze winner at the Qantas Australian Tourism Awards with Pelican Boat Hire taking out the Tourism Retail and Hire Services award. More than 700 tourism operators and guests gathered at the Sunshine Coast Convention Centre on Friday 18 March to recognise the achievements and resilience of Australia’s finest visitor experiences. Queensland Tourism Industry Council chief executive and chair of the Australian Tourism Awards Daniel Gschwind said the Awards offered a platform to showcase the world-class experiences and destinations that Australia has to offer. “The awards are testament to the commitment and determination of our nation’s top tourism businesses, who, despite the difficulties of the past two years, consistently provide visitors with exceptional experiences,” Mr Gschwind said. “While all the winners and finalists should be congratulated for their achievements through these challenging times, we’re particularly proud of Queensland’s success at this year’s awards. Competing with the nation’s best tourism products, Bundaberg Rum Distillery Visitor Experience were the big winners at the Awards night, walking away with top honours for a third time in Tourism Wineries, Distilleries and Breweries. Having achieved a golden hat trick, the Distillery Experience was inducted into the Aus-

tralian Tourism Awards Hall of Fame. Overall, Queensland tourism celebrated a remarkable night by accepting 15 accolades at this year’s national Awards with six gold, five silver, and four bronze being awarded to exceptional Sunshine State operators. A total of 75 awards were presented across 25 categories, including Red Cat Adventures who took home gold for Adventure Tourism, as did Narrows Escape Rainforest Retreat in the Hosted Accommodation category, and Empire Apartment Hotel for 4-4.5 Star Accommodation. Other Queensland winners include Beef Australia Limited for Major Festivals and Events, and Spirits of the Red Sand, who took out the prestigious Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Tourism Award. Tourism Minister Stirling Hinchliffe said the awards’ strong Queensland representation demonstrated commitment to recovery. “In the last two years, resilient Queensland tourism operators have found opportunities to build back better,” Mr Hinchliffe said. “They’ve strived for excellence in delivering outstanding, visitor-focused experiences and new, world-class tourism infrastructure. “The tremendous determination of tourism operators is reflected in the awards’ 21 Queensland finalists.” Noosa’s Pelican Boat Hire owner Craig McGovern brings home the bronze award at the Qantas Australian Tourism Awards.

KATIE ROSE NEEDS VOLUNTEERS Katie Rose Cottage Hospice (KRCH) finds itself short of volunteer personal carers. KRCH relies heavily on volunteer personal carers to assist their nursing staff in all aspects of endof-life care. This is to ensure guests have the best possible care and comfort in their final days. KRCH is urgently seeking volunteers who can give a few hours of their time on a regular basis - in particular retired nurses, nurses, student nurses, AINs and PCs to fulfil this role. Volunteers will need to have an interest in palliative care and be fully vaccinated (as per

No to 6 knot rule Thank you for your front page article regarding the management of vessels on the Noosa river. As a rower who uses the river multiple times per week, l was interested to read the article and thought to offer the following feedback: 1. Decaying boats Yes, there are some boats on the river that are never used, not maintained and eyesores that ought to be removed but not that many of them. 2. Sewerage Far worse than these decaying boats is the sewerage pumped into the water from the concrete pipe on Noosa North Shore side of the river just downriver from Makepeace Island. 3. Suggested 6 knot speed limit I had to Google a knot to establish that it is equal to 1.852 kms, so 6 knots is 11.112kms per hour. That equates to 0.1852 kms per minute. Our competetive regatta rowers row 1 km at between about 3mins 50seconds and 6.00minutes. I hope my math is correct but 3mins 50secs per kilometre equates to approx 15.648kms per hour, well faster than the 6 knot (11.112km) per hour proposed speed limit. I would think that many surf ski riders, coastal rowers, kayakers, outriggers and surf boats would also be faster than the proposed 6 knot speed limit. Training to compete would be impossible with a six knot limit. If a limit must be imposed, perhaps 10 knots might be more practical. We are on the water very early in the morning as that is when there are the least boats as single sculls are easily capsized by boat wash. 4. Over-regulated country Whilst l appreciate the need for safety for all river users, perhaps the middle of the river is not the best place for swimmers, who are difficult enough to see under good conditions, let alone when the sun is in your eyes. There are plenty of places to swim, such as our patrolled beaches, pools, the river edges and bottom of Hastings Street without swimmers also taking over the river channel. The boaties who always use the river are usually very considerate and careful. It is the occasional or new river user who is the worst, particularly the jet ski users, who do not use the designated jet ski area. Yet again we seem to be looking to take away from the many who do the right thing for the sake of the few who do not. The worst offenders won’t obey the speed limit anyway, so why apply it. Just my opinion and l am sure others will shoot it down. Rosemary Gibbes, Tewantin

Safe Australia Good Guv’mint announced a plan for a plan to keep Australians safe from predicted, frequent, future catastrophic events. There are ideas for an ark and submarines (by 2040). How good’s an ark and submarines (by 2040)? Just arksing. Margaret Wilkie, Peregian Beach

Greenhouse gas effect questionable We endure the vociferous disciple Steve Hall’s endless banging on in that ideological currency of evidence–free opinions that are noisily proclaimed to have majority consensus. Where and what is this much referred to and hyped science that never ever comes with a single shred of evidence, facts or figures? Just maybe he can be persuaded to share this elusive science that he so loudly espouses, by way of explanations of proven evidence and facts - not by resort to hypotheses, models and opinion. His settling the conundrums below would be most welcome: 1. What unique qualities make the four per cent of anthropogenic CO2 so different to the remaining 96 per cent of natural CO2 as an effective Climate Change (CC) /Global Warming (GW) agent? 2. Water vapour (H2O) is many times more prevalent in the atmosphere and many times greater than carbon dioxide (CO2) as a greenhouse gas(GHG) - as defined ! So why is the water vapour not taken into account as an effective CC/GW agent and, in fact, much greater so potentially than CO2 could ever be? Yet curiously enough, grave GW/CC concerns are expressed for the even far more minute presence of methane(CH4) . Why is that? 3. When did CC cycles start on earth? At wht point in time in history did CC cycles not take place on earth? Why and for what reason

LENSCAPE

Siri Wittrup shot this image of pontoons being removed from Sunshine Beach. If you have a Lenscape please email to newsdesk@noosatoday. com.au should we now expect CC to cease? 4. Please explain how and why the GHG effect is accepted as an obvious exception to the laws of thermodynamics? 5. Ice core analysis, data from atmospheric observatories (e.g. Mauna Loa ) and historic proxy data of temperature and atmospheric CO2 all empirically show that temperature precedes CO2 . So how do our CC disciples account for their claim that CO2 is the effective cause and not the result of temperature change. 6. If the GHG hypothesis is true and exists, then why does a pot of boiling water remain at 100C no matter how long it boils for? We desperately need responsible factual explanations that we owe to our misinformed children, not more garbage masquerading as a science. Please spare me the usual denigration and character assassination pile-on that characterise the talk back of CC ideologues . Richard Deane, Peregian Springs

Lack of understanding I think Steve Hall (NT 11/3) is missing the point and showing a lack of fully understanding the subject of climate change. I don’t think that any reasonable person could possibly doubt that the climate is indeed changing. It is the reasons for it that are less clear. The majority of people are saying that the science is clear on the subject, but if you do your own open-minded research, you will find that there are many dissenting views as to the reasons for the change. Science has never been decided by popular opinion. Just because seemingly popular opinion supports CO2 as being the culprit does not make it true. Over 20 years ago Tim Flannery and Al Gore made many predictions regarding climate change that to the best of my knowledge up until this day, none have come true. There are many reputable scientists who cast doubts that carbon dioxide is the cause. It is in fact a vital source of food for all our living vegetation, which, by the way, provides the oxygen we need for our life. Nasa data shows that the earth has never been greener, surely a good thing for our food crops and our overall well-being. For anyone that does not have a closed mind, here is a link to a video that should at least have you thinking more deeply about this subject, youtu.be/1zrejG-W13U I have read that during the last mini ice age 10,000 years ago, the level of carbon dioxide gas in the atmosphere was 10 times higher than now. That alone should cause interested people to not just accept what is currently accepted majority opinion and rethink what might or might not be true, after all, no previous predictions have come true. The dams are full, the sea hasn’t inundated coastal cities, the poles are still there but, yes, the climate is changing, but it has been since time began. Gary Welsh, Noosa

Opposed to hotel plan Like many others in the community I’m firmly

opposed to the (Noosa Springs) hotel in its current plan. The plan is for just over 100 rooms, and as there is no public transport within 2kms, the guests will arrive by car. Whether they hire, drive their own, or use taxis or rideshare is immaterial - they all will come in cars. The proposition that they would arrive on two wheels is just unmitigated nonsense. You could reasonably expect most of the staff also to come in cars. We all know Noosa Springs Drive is the only road in and out of all four precincts - Noosa Springs, Oasis, Park Ridge, Elysium -, and is not even a dual carriageway. OK, there are a couple of emergency gates, but they are padlocked and I understand only Noosa Council has the keys. We have seen bushfire just metres from the golf course within the last couple of years, and it would be optimistic in the extreme to suggest it will never happen again. In the four combined precincts, there are, at a guess, 700-800 houses and units. Many of them are two-car residences. Add in the vehicles of current Noosa Springs Resort staff. In the event of an emergency evacuation, getting possibly 1000 cars out of the four precincts in a hurry would be a major logistics’ problem. And then we may have the hotel guests, plus staff, in their vehicles. I agree the upgrading of the resort facilities would be a benefit to all users. But surely an inherent part of rental property ownership is the need to maintain and regularly upgrade the property and its amenities. To neglect the maintenance is to neglect the tenants/guests/ visitors. Apparently the original Noosa Springs plan provided for a hotel about where the Park Ridge units have been built. So now the developers want to amend the orignial plan, and rezone a substantial area of land, currently zoned open space and/or recreational, to accommodate a hotel they previously chose not to build. Simple fact - units were built instead of a hotel. Bad luck, bad timing or bad management, whatever, history does not have a reverse gear. I believe we should all object strongly to the Noosa Springs hotel proposal as it currently stands. Daryl Bates, Noosa Springs

Ukraine response I reply to TE Williams: Oh T E W re the Ukraine You spout you know not what. Your prayers for unity in vain ’As one’ we certainly are not! Your info comes from channel which?

STA law in action? Do you hear it? Even if its not there? The screaming, the music, the yelling, the bombing in the pool and the insidious little noises that get in your head and stay there. The pool gate slamming, the fortress gate sliding - do you hear it? And when each new party arrives, do you flinch? Do their delighted first night squeals cause you to close all doors and windows. Do you constantly live in dread? Looking forward to Easter? Welcome to residential life in Noosa. And the local STA law? Well, you tell me. How many of the estimated 5000 properties have been registered post 1 Feb? 60 in the first month. At this rate it will take five years to implement. Was this what residents expected? Was this what was promised - law with teeth Mayor Stewart said. And are complaints being investigated? Or are residents being told that complaints can’t be investigated until properties are registered? Oh, and who is paying for this? Fees have been waived. Is it appropriate for ratepayers’ funds to be used to subsidise (mostly) out of state investors? And what of displaced flood victims? Surely they are more deserving? Where are they to live? Is this Council’s much vaunted, industry-feared, draconian new law? And how many residents are giving up and leaving paradise? How did it ever come to this? Free Noosa? Who ever could have imagined it would look like this. Julia Craddock, Sunshine Beach

Trio to play at Eumundi Friday 8 April will see ARIA Award winning local artist Katie Noonan take to the stage with her trio at Eumundi School of Arts. Premiering all new music and featuring son Dexter Hurren on drums, this will be a special night of music. The Katie Noonan Trio will be supported by songstress Sarah King. Fifteen years ago, Katie Noonan recorded her debut solo album Skin in Sydney and Los Angeles while four to eight months pregnant and holding the hand of an awesome oneyear-old boy called Dexter. Fast forward to now and Katie’s new band features 16-year-old son Dexter on drums! Joining the mum and son team is extraordinary bassist/producer Steele Chabau. Over the last five years, since releasing her all originals crowded-funded and critically acclaimed album Transmutant, Katie has been

building up a new body of work for her next album and, alongside Steele and Dexter, will be presenting the first live iterations of these new tunes at the Eumundi School of Arts. Over the past 20 years, five-time ARIA award-winning artist Katie Noonan has proven herself one of Australia’s most hardworking, versatile and prolific artists. Named one of the greatest Australian singers of all time by the Herald Sun, Katie has produced 20 studio albums throughout her career, with seven times platinum record sales under her belt and 27 ARIA award nominations that span diverse genres. Katie first came into the nation’s view in 2002 while fronting indie rock band george – their debut album, the two-times platinum Polyserena, rolled in at number one in the ARIA charts. They ultimately won the ARIA award for Breakthrough Artist that same year. Since then, Katie has performed by invita-

tion for members of the Danish and British Royal families, and His Holiness the 13th Dalai Lama. She was an inaugural recipient of the prestigious Sidney Myer Creative Fellowship in 2011, an honour awarded to candidates who display outstanding talent and exceptional courage. In 2018, Katie took on the Commonwealth Games opening and closing ceremonies as music director, performing to more than a billion viewers worldwide. Katie is a rare songwriter. Equally at home leading a symphony orchestra as she is performing in a small jazz club, she has the ability to flourish in any genre – whether that’s in gentle folk storytelling or in the grandiosity of an operatic performance. Katie has also collaborated with Australian electronic producers Flight Facilities on their acclaimed 2014 record Down To Earth, and in 2016 she joined Perth hip-hop artist Drapht on

Betty Taylor will be playing at the 2022 Offbeat Music Festival.

Dear Doonan will soon be entertaining audiences in the music-loving village of Eumundi.

The countdown is on for Offbeat fun There’s a buzz in the air in the music-loving village of Eumundi with the countdown on for the 2022 Offbeat Music Festival on Saturday 26 March at The Imperial Hotel Eumundi. The 18-plus festival will take place from noon until late with two stages and a lineup that boasts Holy Holy, Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever, Emma Donovan and The Putbacks, Hayley Mary, Dallas Frasca, Kallidad, Dear Doonan, Kurilpa Reach, Karl S. Williams, Fragile Animals, Palomino III, The Rumbrellas and Betty Taylor. Organiser Alice Jones said there were limited tickets remaining via Oztix. “Get in quick smart if you’re keen to come

along as this is sure to sell out in the lead-up to the festival,” Alice said. A limited number of bus home seats are also available via Oztix for only $10 with two route options on offer, Maroochydore and Noosa Junction. “It’s a killer line-up of interstate and local artists, spearheaded by Holy Holy, Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever and the awesome Emma Donovan and The Putbacks, and is sure to blow the minds of fans who’ve missing seeing top notch live music over the last couple of years,” she said. “Many of these acts have never played on the Sunshine Coast, let alone Eumundi, so we

are keen to show them what a dynamic, creative, music-loving town we are.“ The Offbeat Music Festival is supported by the Restart Investment to Sustain and Expand Fund (RISE) - an Australian Government initiative – and is a Covid-safe event. “The RISE funding has enabled us to secure bands of this calibre and keep the ticket price at only $75 – a serious bargain for some of the best artists in the country,” Alice said.

Gympie’s historic Mary Valley Rattler returned to the tracks on Saturday 19 March following the completion of a safety assessment. The resumption of services follows significant rehabilitation and restoration works completed in the wake of the recent floods that impacted the Gympie region. The go-ahead for a return of services was provided by an independent panel of experienced civil engineers who assessed the tracks and confirmed the safety certification works had been successfully completed. Further flood rehabilitation work will take place over the coming months but this work will have little impact on train services. Rattler Railway Company general manager Micheal Green said it was good news for the Gympie region that the Rattler would be returning to normal services. “It took us a little while to be able to complete a comprehensive review of the tracks because of the floods, but a full independent assessment was undertaken and work has been completed to remove debris from the tracks and ensure that it was totally safe to restart services,” Mr Green said. “The past six months have been very difficult with the pandemic and then the floods, but we recognise the importance of the Rattler to the Gympie community and we have done everything possible to get the trains back on the tracks as quickly and as safely as possible. “We would like to thank and acknowledge all of the Rattler family – Gympie Council, our volunteers, our staff and the wider Gympie community – who have provided so much support in helping get this iconic tourism attraction back up and running after such a challenging natural disaster.” Special Easter and holiday services will be announced in the next week. Full details of services, visit maryvalleyrattler.com.au

days of this special event, visitors can watch demonstrations from tutors and see artists at work. Over 30 different activity groups operate at the center, including a range of arts and crafts from painting to ceramics, from printmaking to quilt making.

Play’s satirical take Noosa Arts Theatre’s Australia Day play is a noholds-barred satirical look at how we celebrate the pride of our national day. The play takes place in a fictional town called Coriole where we get to meet a cornucopia of crusty characters who’s job it is to get the town event going. It’s a no-brainer right? Wrong! Anyone who has ever served on a committee (most people would rather have root

canal without an anaesthetic) will instantly recognise some hilarious, awkward and frosty moments and understand how frustrating it can be to have an array of differing opinions to piece together something that will work for everyone… no offense. Sausage sizzle? Now there’s a can of worms! Of course there’s some dialogue which will definitely be a conversation starter on various hot potato topics but, all in all, it’s just good clean fun with ordinary salt of the earth Aussies.

The play was written 10 years ago by Australian actor, writer, singer and director Jonathan Biggins. He is well known on the small screen and in theatres around the country. Many will remember his acerbic The Gospel According to Paul recent stage show about Paul Keating. The show opens at Noosa Arts Theatre on 7 April and runs until 16 April.

Pomona Railway Station Gallery is hosting two new exhibitions by contemporary artists throughout April. Scratching the Surface is a collection of work by Cooran artist Diana Shepherd, painted over the last 12 months. Diana’s paintings are mixed media, modern and abstract. Each work is different, a moment in time. “My paintings evolve and merge organically,” Diana said. “Multiple layers with, usually, much scratching back (sgraffito).” Visitors are invited to meet the artist at 10am on opening day Saturday 2 April. The exhibition runs until 4 May. Janet Luttrell is holding her first solo exhibition in the Banana Shed, opening Saturday 26 March. Working in acrylic on canvas, Janet’s work is mainly contemporary and impressionistic. “I enjoy painting landscape, still life, Australian flora and fauna, sometimes with a touch of English influence,” Janet said. “I specialise in the use of many colours in each painting to express movement and form, so my paintings have a lot of energy.” Janet’s exhibition is on show until 27 April. Pomona Railway Station Gallery is at 10 Station Street Pomona, open 10am4pm Tuesday to Friday and 10am to 2pm Saturday and Sunday.

Tom Connop’s winning tale At 96 years young, Tom Connop’s Irish story was judged the best by his Probus friends at the St Patrick’s Day picnic last Thursday. “I shall treasure the pair of Irish Drinking Socks that I won,” Tom said. “Was it a true story?” we asked. “I’ll let you decide that for yourselves,” he responded. The story went like this: “When my daughter and I were travelling in Ireland, we stayed at a delightful BnB in rural Ireland for several days. Next door was farmland. Every day we would see the farmer standing in his field. We just had to find out what he was doing.

“I’m trying to win the Nobel Prize,” the farmer told us. “In agriculture?“ Tom asked. “No. I was told that the Nobel Prize is awarded to someone outstanding in his field so that’s what I’m doing.” Tom has been a member of the Tewantin Noosa Probus Club for many years. “I enjoy meeting with all the lovely ladies in the club. They are very friendly and always welcoming. We have lots of interesting activities each month. It beats sitting at home alone day after day. Since joining Probus, I have never felt lonely or bored. I’ve always got something to look forward to,” Tom said.

Following the event’s cancellation in 2020 and 2021 due to the impacts of the pandemic, Sunshine Coast Council’s Economic Portfolio Councillor Jason O’Pray said council would deliver The Curated (side) Plate – a 2022 BiteSized Serving, setting out to support and promote the region’s local food and agribusiness, hospitality, tourism and event industries. “It’s The Curated Plate – but not quite as we knew it before,” Cr O’Pray said. “In a post-pandemic environment, the event aims to build from the ground up via a local industry-driven program, featuring the Sunshine Coast’s vast array of producers, restaurants and cafes, tourism and event experiences, and farm-gate activities. Businesses participate for free and retain all of the derived income. “We all know how important it is to support local businesses and producers on the Sunshine Coast and this event is a fantastic way to showcase the incredible food, lifestyle and experiences our region has to offer.” Expression of interest registrations are now open until 26 April, with businesses invited to put forward creative local food and beverage offerings which highlight the region’s talent and natural assets. A designated local program co-ordinator has been engaged to liaise directly with participating businesses over the coming months, including offering information sessions on the coast and in the hinterland. Fellow Economic Portfolio Councillor Terry Landsberg said council’s investment in the event promoted the Sunshine Coast as a food tourism destination, by attracting locals and visitors to enjoy superb local produce and winter sun activities among stunning hinterland and coastal settings. “We’re looking forward to seeing an incredible program brimming with unique culinary experiences from across the region,” Cr Landsberg said. “There really will be something for all – locations, activities, menus and price points to suit everyone, and many hidden gems to surprise visitors and locals.”

Local restaurants, farms, tourism and event operators will soon throw open their doors as part of The Curated Plate culinary festival. Food and Agribusiness Network (FAN) chief executive officer Emma Greenhatch said The Curated (side) Plate was a fantastic council initiative which FAN was proud to support. “It provides our Sunshine Coast members and the local business community the opportunity to collaborate and show locals and visi-

tors everything we have to offer,” Ms Greenhatch said. “The event is designed to give all local businesses and producers a chance to shine, and create further opportunities during The Curated Plate and all year round.” The Curated Plate made its debut in 2019, showcasing local produce as curated by inter-

national, national and local chefs to foodie audiences from the coast to the hinterland. The event drew participation from businesses and producers across all areas of the Sunshine Coast local government area.

Award-winning production comes to The J next week Award winning production Stardust and The Mission will be entertaining audiences at The J Noosa next week. Presented by The J, Regional Arts Victoria and The Space Company, these two plays (for the price of one) will appeal to folks interested in great theatre, history, First Nations storytelling, military history, documentaries such as Australian Story, Who Do You Think You Are?, genealogy/ancestry, jazz and brass music from the ‘20s-’40s. Both shows are based on true stories drawn from interviews, forensic archival research and cultural consultation. Stardust and The Mission is an important double bill about strength, courage, determination and seeing the extraordinary in the everyday – with these two stories connected through a shared investigation: to trace the stories from our family ancestors to uncover who we are today. Stardust tells the story of bandleader and trumpet player Col Brain. Before he died, Col placed his most prized life possessions into a cupboard and locked it up, never to be opened again. But what was inside? Told by his grandson, award-winning ABC presenter and performer, Joel Carnegie - herein lies a the discovery of a time capsule of Australian musical life, in a heart-warming musical quest to uncover what Col wanted us to know about his life by the things he left behind.

Award winning production Stardust and The Mission will be entertaining audiences at The J Noosa next week. The Mission follows Fighting Gunditjmara man Allan McDonald off to war. One of the first Aboriginal soldiers from Victoria to enlist, Allan fought at Gallipoli and Beersheba, only to be denied a soldier’s settlement upon return and forced from his Traditional Land. This captivating and rollicking story is told by his great great nephew, acclaimed

Gunditjmara actor Tom Molyneux. The Mission tells the truth of Uncle Allan’s struggle, fighting for Country, for love, and for justice. When: Saturday 2 April, time: 7.30pm, adult - $45/concession - $40 (pensioner, seniors, students). Age 15-plus. Tickets at thej.com.au or by calling The J box office on 5329 6560.

Warnings: includes adult themes, occasional coarse language, smoke, and scenes depicting war and violence. The Mission contains depictions of, and reference to, Aboriginal people who have passed away. It also describes confronting content in relation to the massacre, dispossession, and mistreatment of First Nations Peoples. Friday, 25 March, 2022 NOOSA TODAY 33

NOOSA AFC TIGER TALK 202103085735_1-SG12-21

Tigers mark big weekend By Julian Pitts It was a very big weekend of footy for the Noosa Tigers with our senior men and colts having their final hit out before the season proper and our juniors hitting the grounds for week one of grading games. Only our senior women had the weekend off. Speaking of our senior women, 2020 premiership coach and Tiger playing legend Peter Trompf is back at the helm after respected football figure Graham Burgen was unable to continue due to work and travel commit-

ments. A big thank you to Burgs for his commitment and, of course, guiding our senior women to last year’s flag. Our senior men finished off their pre-season practice match with a commanding and thumping win over Caloundra at North St last Saturday. Dual premiership star Tyler Stack continued his great pre-season form racking up 34 touches while new recruit Tommy Baulch was also a standout with something happening every time he touched the footy. Leaders Jai Fitzpatrick and Aaron Laskey were again prominent as Noosa now heads

down to the Gold Coast on 2 April to take on the might of defending champions Broadbeach. Attention for this weekend now centres around our season launch on Saturday afternoon where we welcome all sponsors, members, supporters, players (senior and junior) from 1pm with the bar open, live entertainment, an introduction of our new coaches and players and also a players’ auction to go with it. Food will be supplied by our major sponsor, Rococo bar and bistro, in what promises to be a fabulous afternoon. Don’t miss it.

More junior grading games will be played across the coast on Sunday, including several at Noosa, as our junior season gets rocking. We still require volunteers to help out with all teams and especially in our canteen. Please call Julian Pitts on 0409 554 429 if you are able to assist. Another fun weekend of footy and festivities at the Tigers this weekend and for all other Tiger news check out our Noosa Tigers Facebook page and other social mediums. See you down at Tigerland. Go Tigers.

Dolphins’ five debutantes pass tough trial match test With no less than five debutantes, Bronte Langbridge, Tahlia Birrell, Paige Tuirrisi, Bridget Duncan and Jemima Ward, the Ray White Noosa Dolphins women’s team headed into Saturday’s trial match against Brisbane Norths as a an unknown entity. The reigning Sunshine Coast Premiers were without so much experience as last year with the loss of several players who are testing themselves in the Brisbane competition this year, headed by former captain Tess Evans. Any concerns about that inexperience quickly vanished as the girls put in a Herculean effort claiming victory, 47-15. “It was a great performance all round,”

said coach Damien Cogill. “To see the character of the girls on display was really encouraging, especially those in their first game. “To cap it off, Bridget Duncan, playing in her first ever game of rugby, ran 50 metres to score with her first touch of the ball.” The match also saw sisters Phoebe and Bronte Langbridge play together for the first time, adding to the family’s rugby legacy at the Dolphins. While acknowledging the team effort, Cogill pointed to the outstanding leadership displayed by co-captains Rhi Zanelli and Dillyn Blackburn who were standouts on the paddock. In other games, the reserve grade was im-

There will be a partial closure of Goodwin Street, Tewantin between Tewantin State School and Read Park from 5am - 9pm on Saturday 26th March for the Noosa Ultra-Trail®.

“The effort in the contest of our guys could not be questioned,” Buckland said. “They pushed Norths the entire match in all facets of the game, but against a side who have been training since November, I knew it would be difficult,” he said of the 39-19 loss. Impressing Buckland in the two trials to date have been winger Tom McAneney and second rower Levi Shaw who joined the club this year from the Gungahlan club in Canberra. The Ray White Dolphins now have two weeks to prepare for the opening round one match against Maroochydore at Cotton Tree on April 2. For all the updates and news, check out the Noosa Dolphins Facebook page.

NOTICE OF PARTIAL ROAD CLOSURE

pressive in defeat, leading the scoreboard the entire match until the final five minutes, going down 24-17 Coach Mark Winder was very happy with the performance. “They are a big side Norths and for us to have the chance to test ourselves against Brisbane clubs like that is great,” Winder said. “To be leading the whole match like we did, until that last five minutes impressed me. We will take the next two weeks to learn from these hit outs before we take on Maroochydore in two weeks.” A Grade coach Matt Buckland was impressed by the display put in by the A Grade team despite playing a more experienced and well drilled Brisbane Norths.

Hook, Line and Sinker Tackle World Noosa

Mid week spoils ahead Noosa Bait and Tackle As expected, we are finally seeing a few more fishable days. With a drop in the swell midweek, a few boats made the bar crossing with ease. For many anglers the weather has kept them grounded but next week is shaping up to have light winds and swell so keep a watchful eye out! Offshore, the continued run of quality reef fish continues with catches consisting of pearlies, snapper, cod, sweetlip, cobia and tuskies. For most bait anglers using pilchard and squid baits on twin hook paternoster rigs are getting most of the fish. For lure anglers, a simple 5-inch minnow style soft plastic on ¾ oz jig heads and 30lb leader will help get the bites. Check out the Power bait power jerk shad for the perfect baitfish profile especially around Sunshine Reef wide and North Reef. Things should start to clear up next week as we leave the spring tides behind. With the bigger tidal range gone we should start to see the dirty water getting flushed out. The predicted drop in wind and swell will see things really improve. If heading offshore make sure you have a rod rigged up with a slug as the tuna can pop up in a second’s notice and be gone. Try using 20lb outfits for tuna and smaller 20g gram slugs with the TT hardcore a consistent performer. This is the time we start to see longtail tuna so be prepared. The river has been fishing well for those targeting flathead and whiting. Much like the ocean clearing up, the river will be starting to clean up. This will only improve the fishing and the fish will start to feed heavily. Bait anglers will find pilchards, whitebait and prawn baits will work the best on flathead with worm and squid for whiting. Keep your lines no more than 8-10lb and always cast up current for the best presentation. Reports have been limited upriver and this should start to improve in the coming week with no rain forecast. Always ensure you have your sounder running in side or down view to pick fish from trees as there is likely to be a lot of debris around. Trolling smaller minnow style lures will work well on jacks and trevally with bigger sow rolled soft plastics loaded with scent like the new gulp gel for jewies. If you are catching catfish the river is still too fresh and its time to head back toward the mouth of Cooroibah of the ski run. The freshwater dams have just opened

The waters are still dirty and the amount of water that spilled over will mean you are going to have to work hard to find the fish as many have now moved. Keep sounders in low frequency as bass do not like high settings and try ZX blades, TN vibes and Hot Bite spoons. Use 2-3 inch paddle tails and fish areas that get the most sun as the temps dropped during the rains. Don’t forget to get a SIPS permit online before you fish the local dams and keep an eye out while on the water as there could be floating branches.

Noosa Masters swimming in the wake of the floods

Sport can often provide a welcome break from the real world. A masters swimming meet – involving a trip away from home with congenial clubmates – can be especially enjoyable. But sometimes that real world intrudes. Enroute to the recent annual swim meet at Hervey Bay, the Noosa Masters contingent could not avoid that intrusion. Along the M1 motorway through Gympie and on to Maryborough, there was unmistakable evidence of the recent flooding. The route was marked by potholed roads, wrecked fences and trees bent double by raging floodwaters. There were sad glimpses of the gouged banks of the Mary River and flood marks high on house walls. One could imagine both the large-scale devastation and the small-scale local tragedies. At the Hervey Bay aquatic centre, mem-

bers of other clubs were greeted with ‘How did you fare in the floods?’ instead of the usual ‘Are you swimming well?’. But the day was far from doom and gloom. The fierce yet friendly competition offered everyone the chance to put aside – for a few welcome hours – the relentless news of flood, pandemic and conflict. Among the 113 competitors from 23 clubs, Noosa’s team performed well. Five Noosa swimmers won age-group medals, and the team was ranked second in overall points scored. This time, Noosa could not wrest the trophy from the home team. Next year, perhaps. Freed from lockdown, and with local floodwaters receding, the coffee shops and cafes on the Hervey Bay esplanade lived up to their reputations for excellence. This was a weekend away that exemplified the masters swimming motto of fitness, friendship and fun.

Pin High Peter Owen

A very good day for Reon Once each year Reon Weir dons the family’s traditional tartan and attends the annual Scotch Day at Noosa Springs – combining his lifelong pride in the Weir heritage with his newer love of the game of golf. To date, his rewards have been modest – a prize last year for the best dressed golfer being about his greatest achievement. But better things are in store – at least if his performance in Saturday’s Noosa Springs stableford competition is anything to go by. Playing on a course that has recovered remarkably well from the recent floods, Reon played one of the rounds of his life, tallying 44 points and winning the event by three points. Not bad for a retired power industry project manager who didn’t even take up the game until 10 years ago – long after he’d made the decision to relocate to the Sunshine Coast and make Noosa his home. He puts his success down to having ‘a good day’ and ‘sinking a few putts’, but you don’t notch up 44 points purely by accident. Reon moved to Noosa more than 30 years ago, but didn’t discover golf until he was introduced to it by a friend a decade ago. He joined Noosa Springs and had lessons with Jimmy Douris, who’s now the teaching professional at Noosa Golf Club. Reon was a quick learner and, within a few years, was captaining Noosa Springs’ B grade pennant team. “I’ve missed the last year or two, but I’m getting ready for the upcoming pennant season,” said Reon, who played on Saturday from a 14 handicap. Reon has spent the past few years helping his son Hayden establish Seabourne Distillery, whose quality gins and aperitifs have quickly gained a reputation for the boutique Noosaville establishment. He plays golf two or three times a week and, otherwise, his passion is cooking – an activity perhaps influenced by his cousin, Pamela Clark, the legendary food editor of Women’s Weekly during a career which spanned a half century. “I’m not in her class, of course, but I love cooking,” he said. “My favourite dish is roast pork.” Reon says a love of cooking runs in the Weir family. His brother Graham, for example, is a multiple scone baking champion at the Royal Sydney Show. Bowditch dips toe in the water Steven Bowditch, the complex Noosa star who, like a meteor, blazed across the world golf stage a decade ago before spectacularly crashing and burning, made a tentative return to the game this week when he lined up in the Louisiana Open on the US’s Korn Ferry Tour. Bowditch hadn’t competed on any tour since 2020, when he played five Korn Ferry Tour events – missing the 36-hole cut in every one. Once rated as high as 54 on the Official World Rankings and a member of the International team in the 2015 Presidents Cup, Bowditch’s golf career has been remarkable for its dizzying highs and lamentable lows. Bowditch’s life changed in 2005 when he won the Jacobs Creek Open in Adelaide. The tournament was co-sanctioned with the US’s Nationwide Tour and the money he won helped the former Noosa junior into fourth place on the tour’s money list, earning him a card on the US PGA Tour in 2006. That didn’t go well. He played 22 events, missed the cut in all but two, and was tossed back onto the Nationwide Tour. He got a second chance on the PGA Tour when, in 2010, he won the Soboba Golf Classic and his end-of-year standings were good enough to earn another chance on the world’s richest tour. He was runner-up in the Greenbrier Classic in 2013, then won the Texas Open in 2014 and the Byron Nelson Classic in 2015 – victories that gained him starts in the Masters and

Check out Queensland courses TAKE THE TIP PETER HEINIGER The current Covid epidemic has certainly made travelling abroad and playing golf overseas awfully hard, almost impossible. Even heading interstate is not easy. However, don’t allow that to stop you travelling and experiencing some of Queensland’s hidden gems of golf courses. The Sunshine Coast is a great place to start as our variety and quality of golf courses is second to none. For something different outside of the regular Gold Coast trip, why not head west to Toowoomba and enjoy the bent greens of Toowoomba City and Middle Ridge golf courses. Then, only three hours north, you’ll be treated to the delights of Maryborough, Hervey Bay, Bundaberg, Childers and Bargara golf courses. The list goes on and on. Our local Queensland courses will appreciate your patronage and there’s no doubt they deserve it as well. Good golfing. PETER HEINIGER is Heiniger Golf/Noosa Springs head PGA teaching professional.

Don’t let the garb fool you. Reon Weir is more than just a model for his family tartan – he’s also a very handy golfer. the PGA. And, as his rating rose, he also gained starts in the British and US Opens. But the glory days were brief. In the 2016-17 season, he missed 25 of 27 cuts and again lost his playing privileges on the US Tour. He played seven events on the Korn Ferry Tour in 2018, missing the cut every time, before discovering the reason for constant pain in his back. In 2019 Bowditch underwent spinal fusion surgery – the same procedure that cured Tiger Woods’ back problems – and returned to the Korn Ferry Tour in 2020. A series of poor results led to him calling it quits in July. That was the last time Bowditch had played before this week’s comeback. I’d love to be able to report a triumphant return but, sadly, rounds of 77 and 75 – made up of six birdies, but including just too many bogeys and even a double-bogey – led to yet another missed cut. But Bowditch – still only 38, happily married with a five-year-old daughter and free of the depression that plagued him for years – is nothing if not a fighter, and looks to the future with confidence. He’ll be back again. Queensland’s golf managers visit Noosa Dealing with courses still impacted by floods kept some of the teams away, but 60 of Queensland’s golf club managers gathered at Noosa Springs last week for a chance to get together and play one of the state’s premier courses. The Queensland division of the national Golf Managers Association regularly stages such events, usually attended by managers

and board members, who discuss business and become familiar with different courses and clubs. They play a team competition based on the combined scores of two pairs – either a manager and a board member, or two board members - from each club. This time the winning team was from Oxley Golf Club. The event was sponsored by Club Car, whose chief executive officer Colin Sergis attended. Mark Orloff, of Golf Industry Central, who organised the day, said the course played well and everybody was delighted to be out and about after the recent heavy rain.

Thunder end undefeated By Randall Woodley QUOTE OF THE WEEK- “If hard work is your weapon, success will be your slave.” Kapil Dev, Indian Test Captain. Last Saturday the Tewantin-Noosa Thunder First Grade cricket team was crowned the premiers in the Sunshine Coast Cricket Association competition. The premiership, the trophy and the accolades that go with it were well and truly deserved as the team was undefeated in some 27 matches, winning 24 of them. It is believed that this is an association record, and no one can remember when a team went through the season without being beaten. The grand final was to be played over three days against arch-rivals, Caboolture Snakes, who have been the premiers a number of times over the last decade but, as has happened frequently this season, the weather intervened. After the first two days of the match were abandoned due to the wet oval, the game came down to a one-day shoot out which Caboolture had to win to claim the premiership. Thunder, being undefeated and on top of the table had to ensure that Caboolture did not score more runs than them on the day. To some spectators, this might have seemed a little unfair, but these are the rules and certainly the Caboolture team has benefitted from washedout matches in the past. After a delayed start on day three on Saturday, Caboolture won the toss and sent the Tewantin-Noosa team into bat hoping to take 10 wickets in time for their strong batting lineup to pile on enough runs late in the day to win the match. As they say in the classics, it did not go according to plan for the Snakes. But the day unfolded exactly as Thunder planned it would. Opener, Lewis Waugh looked untroubled in his nearly four hours at the crease, passing his 1000 runs for the season during his innings and ending up on 76 not out. Thunder captain Jake Dennien opened with him, and both denied the Caboolture bowlers any chance of taking their wickets until well into the afternoon when Jake was out for a very patient 38. Veteran Andrew Kratzmann was next to bat having his first game since November and recovering from knee surgery and was not out 18 when Caboolture conceded with Thunder 1 down 136 and only a little more than an hour to play. The Caboolture team had put everything into their efforts, trying out eight bowlers and,

The competition’s top bowler, with 55 season scalps behind him, went home without taking a wicket, after bowling 24 overs. The Caboolture Snakes were disappointed but had to concede that the Thunder boys had been the best team all season, having defeated them three times in previous matches in 2021-22 : Round 6 (T20) Caboolture 7 for 101 Thunder 3 for 103 Round 12 (50 overs) Caboolture 10 for 109 Thunder 6 for 253 50 0vers Final Caboolture 10 for 210 Thunder 8 for 228 The other statistics that show how well the local team had performed during the season were that they scored more runs than any other team (3844 runs), took more wickets (211) and lost fewer wickets (115) than any of the other teams in the competition. The following figures show how this premiership was truly a team effort. TewantinNoosa Thunder had five batsmen in the top 15 competition run scorers (over 200 registered

In the bowling stats the team really showed their strength having five top wicket-takers in the top 10 - Ben Laughlin, Dom Taylor, Tom Stewart, Jake Dennien and Scott Aufderheide. After the match the umpires presented the premiership trophies, medals for the players and the man-of-the-match award to Lewis Waugh. The club’s presentation night will be held on Saturday 26 March at the Noosa Golf Club. Unfortunately, the 6th Graders who played University of the Sunshine Coast in their grand final fell short of making it two from two for the club but still celebrated with a great season, finishing only a few points behind USC on the table. This is the final cricket report for the season and the club would like to thank all the sponsors, volunteers, players, umpires and Noosa Today for their great support during the 202122 season. This will be a season to remember for the Tewantin-Noosa Thunder club.

Thunder supporters were delighted with the result.

A man of the community At Noosa Main Beach on Thursday afternoon at approximately 3.30.pm a crowd of some 40 people gathered on the water edge to bid a sad farewell to Terry Skeeter Williams, life member of the Noosa Heads Surf Life Saving Club. For many of us, it was indeed a very sad occasion. But I’m happy to say his send-off was conducted in the traditional surf club manner, a tradition that is now performed in many surf clubs around Australia. As a lot of people are not aware of this surf club tradition, on Thursday afternoon a senior life member took the opportunity to step onto the front deck and explain the full ceremony to club patrons. At the raising of the oars, and the gesture of respect being explained, many patrons stood up, and removing their caps, stood in a minute’s silence. Afterwards, many patrons thanked the speaker for making them aware that this tradition existed in the surf clubs of Australia. At the commencement of the ceremony, the ashes of our club mate were presented to the boat captain, who then placed them in the surf boat. The crew of the sweep and four rowers then rowed some 100 metres out through the surf and stopped the boat, raising all four oars in respect to their club mate, a mate whose dedication, hard work and loyalty had earned him the coveted badge of life member Noosa Heads Surf Life Saving Club. For a member whose life has revolved around his club, the spreading of his ashes to the ocean was indeed appropriate. In some cases there would have been times when his actions in the surf would have resulted in the saving of a human life. For Skeeter, one such occasion occurred in the late 1960s, when following a 200 m belt swim in big surf, the life of a teenage Salvation Army girl was saved. His reward was a well done and pat on the back from his patrol captain and he didn’t expect anything more. It was his job. His involvement with his club started in the mid-’60s when, after graduating from Sandgate State High School, he joined the workforce as an apprentice blacksmith in the Queensland Government Northgate Railway Workshops Brisbane. It was here that he crossed paths with both Mal Hats Hanley and myself. At this stage both Hats and I were working as apprentice plumbers in the workshops and were heavily involved in the club. Following some light hearted discussions, he was encouraged to join us. It was the Rail-

Skeeter was a family man. way Workshops at Northgate that brought the three of us together. This was indeed something unique, as all three would move up through the ranks to not only, at various times, hold the rank of chief instructor, but also become life members. On obtaining his bronze medallion, he commenced patrolling and also became a member of the swimming squad, a move that would eventually see him selected as a member of the state club team to compete in New Zealand. However, his main interest saw him switch to the surf boat, where he started rowing and eventually learning the art of surf boat sweeping. Above all it was his work with junior members that became his strong point, training bronze squads and assisting members in their basic swim training. This led to his appointment as club chief instructor. It was this background that saw him develop a deep interest in the field of physical fitness, something that was to stay with him for life. During the winter months he kept busy by playing rugby league for South Nambour. Then in 1970, Skeeter left the club to join the Royal Australian Air Force, serving for a period of nine years. During his time he was based at Amberley and Wagga Wagga and served his time as a PT instructor. While at Amberley he joined the Ipswich Brothers Rugby League Club and in doing so, played as captain coach of the reserve grade side. After his playing days, he worked for the club as fitness coach. It was during this time that, much to Skeeter’s delight, the club won the premiership

in all grades. Also, during his Air Force career, he met a young lady named Julie. They married and became the proud parents of three children, two daughters, Leah and Kerry, and son Brendan. He once told me, ‘’My proudest time in the Air Force was helping to train our pilots for Vietnam. Our job (the PTIs) was to teach jungle survival and everything needed that would enable them to survive if they were shot down in enemy territory. It was something that we were proud of.” After serving his time, he returned home in 1980. “During the winter months of 1984 the Noosa Dolphins Rugby Union club was in the process of becoming consolidated. We had finally settled on the club colours of maroon and white,” said club life member Max Gunthorpe, “It was also the first time I met Skeeter Williams. Our first captain was Brendan Ryan and the coach was Don Stallman. After Don stood aside, Skeeter came in as our coach for a year and took us through to the preliminary finals. He took the time to speak to each man individually, truly a great club man.” Skeeter made a great impression and became very popular. Another who was impressed was Dolphins’ old boy John Dunning. ”I have great memories of Skeeter. He was a hands on coach, and had the ability of getting very close to his players thus getting the best out of us all and while doing this, also had the knack of keeping the teams together.” He also took the time to play with the Golden Oldies,

then the appropriately named Droopy Dolphins. But perhaps his greatest contribution to the Dolphins came when he introduced the legendary Australian Olympic doctor, Howard Toyne, to the club. Most members were unaware that Skeeter’s guest was a pioneer of sports science in Australia and the team doctor for the 1956 and 1964 Australian Olympic teams. To have a man of such achievements and character amongst their ranks was a great thing for the club. He became a great supporter and when his profession permitted, attended all the home games. “He seemed to invest in the members and when he got to know the players, encouraged them to be the best they could. He always gave the impression that he was there for all us 100 per cent,” said Gunthorpe. Old boy John Dunning supported this when he said, “Despite being semi-retired, if one of the boys had a problem, he would extend the helping hand and invite the worried person to drop around to his office on Saturday morning for a chat.” Skeeter’s gesture did not go unnoticed. Skeeter was very proud of his family’s achievments. His son Brendan also joined the Noosa club, obtained his bronze and in winter played A grade league for Noosa Pirates. He joined the Victorian Police Force in 2011 and graduated from the academy in 2012. Now based in Geelong he is a member of the canine squad. In his early years in the force, he played football for the state and Australian Police Rugby League teams and while playing for the national team was appointed vice captain and toured New Zealand and Fiji. He married a young lady named Kelly and Skeeter became a proud grandfather of three granddaughters, Sienna, Billie and Frankie. Daughter Leah spent 14 years working in London and before travelling overseas, played women’s rugby league for both state and Australia. His second daughter Kerry is now a qualified physical training teacher at Redcliffe State High School. Apart from his life membership and raising a family, Skeeter served his community and country with distinction. From former Noosa mayor Bob Abbot, “I never worked up close with Skeeter, but I knew him because he had a very distinctive face in a crowd, and when people needed help, he was always there.” What else could be asked of any man?

The short and the long Following the frenetic pace of the Noosa Festival of Surfing, it’s been great this week to hang out at possibly the most leisurely-paced surf comp in Australia, if not the world. But I’ll get to the 23rd running of the Agnes Water Longboard Classic in a minute. First, let’s deal with the much faster-paced Noosa attack at last weekend’s Queensland Surf Festival, held in challenging conditions at Coolum. This week-long Surfing Queensland event provides the official pathway to the national titles, as well as crowning Queensland Open champions. And after some nail-biting moments for the spectators and mums and dads, two of Noosa’s hottest emerging champions took the titles – Lilliana Bowrey in the women’s and Ben Lorentson in the men’s. Both teenagers are products of the powerful Noosa Boardriders Club, as is Coco Cairns, who took out the state under 18 title a few weeks ago ahead of Lil. Last weekend it was Lil’s turn to finish ahead of Coco in second. Both Ben and Lil have won entries into the WSL Gold Coast Pro Challenger Series trials at Snapper Rocks in May, with the opportunity to impress at the highest level of the sport. Other Noosa standouts at Coolum were Sunshine Beach’s Tim Bain, who finished fourth in the Open Men, and evergreen former pro Dean Brady, who won the over 35 division. The last time Dean took out a Queensland title was in 2002 in the under 18s. My, how time flies. Meanwhile, just up the road four-and-ahalf hours at sleepy old Aggie, the Longboard Classic in typical fashion enjoyed the full range of conditions over its five days, from atrocious to fun. Not that the competitors really care. This event is totally old school charming, with a couple of tents on the beach, some clipboards and a hooter, and plenty of beers after the last heat of the day. Ya gotta love it. Surfing in the codgers’ event, I was pretty happy to get through a couple of rounds and surf a semi on the point, given that most of the heats were on the beach break, but I was even happier to just cruise along the beach taking in the laidback scene and remembering when every surf contest looked like this one. We arrived at Agnes late morning Tuesday, just in time to see two of Noosa’s finest battle it out in the final of the women’s logger pro in clean point waves that would turn out to be the best of the entire event. Kirra Molnar and Jade Gower traded wave for wave with stylish turns and long nose-rides through the inside section, but with five minutes to go, it looked like Kirra, who went so close to taking a title or two at the Noosa festival the week before, had the pro in the bag. But never say never. Needing a big score with only a minute or so to go, Jade turned and swung onto the biggest wave of the heat, and rode it beautifully 42 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 25 March, 2022

The big contingent from Noosa Malibu Club – which would have been even bigger, had not several families succumbed to Covid on the last weekend of the Noosa festival – had a ball and notched up some impressive wins. Jayben Poy, the artistic young man who featured in these pages last week, took out the mixed junior division with some clean, stylish surfing. Mal Club president Glen Gower kept

Beautiful Agnes Water. You’d hardly know there was a contest on! the family on the podium surfing down a division to take out the men’s over 40s, while Owen Cavanagh in the open 8s and Nahyung “Abbey” Lee in the women’s over 35s also impressed. But the standout surfer of the event was one who no longer calls Noosa home. Born and bred here into a surfing family, Trent Dickey was a regular podium finisher in the juniors at the Noosa Festival of Surfing back in its early years, and 20 years later he’s lost none of his style or trademark polish. Trent surfed beautifully throughout, taking out the hat-trick of men’s logger pro, the

amateur logger and open 9s. Trent has been happily ensconced at Yeppoon for some time now, where he and partner Mandy are raising a young family, but he still gets home to Noosa often enough to be given honorary local status. Well, I’m giving it to him anyway, and adding his three trophies to the tidy pile for Noosa. And a big shout out to Agnes comp director Paul White, who puts a lot of effort into making it look effortless. Just one suggestion: an over 70s division would be nice next year!

BEACHSIDE PROPERTY A HOT ITEM PROPERTY MATTERS ERLE LEVEY BEACHFRONT property is hitting new highs as buyers scramble to find prime sites. A double-sized homesite on the oceanfront at Sunshine Beach was potentially their last chance ever to secure side-by-side beach blocks. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with pool sits on 1174sq m at 4-6 Arakoon Crescent, Sunshine Beach, attracted serious interest when offered to the market by Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Eric Seetoo. Ultimately there was only one with the widest smile - the delighted purchaser who is looking forward to the daily joy of stunning ocean and beach views from the headland of the Noosa National Park, sweeping north-easterly across Sunshine Beach, 180 degrees south to Mooloolaba. The price will remain confidential for now but when released it will reveal what Proudly Australian Owned & Independent noosatoday.com.au

A two-bedroom, one-bathroom, one-car apartment at 2/21 Allambi Rise, Noosa Heads, goes to auction Friday, March 25, at 4pm. 272852 A four-bedroom, two-bathroom, six-car house, pool, shed on 10.6ha at 157 Sudholz Rd, Verrierdale, goes to auction Saturday, March 26, at 5pm. 272852 a great investment it has been for the client, who has owned it for 27 years and is naturally super-pleased with the result. This month Tom Offermann Real Estate has sold a beachfront house in Seaview Terrace, Sunshine Beach, also land at 26 Park Crescent. Last Saturday Nic Hunter and Peter TeWhata of Tom Offermann Real Estate had a great result at the three-bedroom, twobathroom home with pool at 1/20 Belmore Terrace, Sunshine Beach. The allure of the two-level duplex abode with Coral Sea views to sigh for, was obvious to Noosaville residents who wanted to have the everyday feeling of toes-in-the sand in two-minutes. Three registered bidders were intent on securing the property, and the hammer finally fell at $2.77m. Nic Hunter had another triumph at 21 Headland Dve, Noosaville, the vendors very happy for their next move to a home nearby, but the happiest were buyers who had recently moved to the area from interstate and were searching for a property in their dream location. It was sold for $1.75m The Richard Locke and Tim McSweeneylisted 28 The Lakes Coolum in a gated enclave and on the lakefront at 87 Toolga St, Mount Coolum, attracted strong interested during the campaign, however it was passed in at $3m with several

potential buyers expressing strong interest post auction. Peter TeWhata’s listing of 36 Noosa Hill Resort, 26 Noosa Dve, Noosa Heads had to be postponed with a date expected soon and potential buyers waiting in the wings. SIGNIFICANT SITE SELLS It was always going to be a good result as it was such a special property. Yet three adjoining properties, each with four apartments, at 66 Peregian Esp, Peregian Beach, have sold prior to auction in a record-breaking result for the area. The rare trifecta on Peregian Beach Esp, directly opposite the beach, was marketed as a once-in-a-generation opportunity on the eastern beaches of the Noosa Shire, and an exciting development opportunity with three adjoining lots, three street frontages and land totalling 2606sq m. The property was to go to auction today, Friday, but the strong interest saw the contract signed last Thursday. Tracy Russell of Tom Offermann Real Estate negotiated the sale. It had been in the Davies family for 37 years. Brothers Russell and Martin, with his wife Carol, were the sellers. Former shearers, their father owned the property originally. “They were such lovely vendors,’’ Tracy said. “A beautiful family. “Martin lives locally and has managed it

the whole time. “There was a lot of interest in the property - from interstate as well as Brisbane and locally. “The backers are from Melbourne, with local associations. “It is remaining local and they will leave it as-is for the time being. “The tenants have another year and that was part of the agreement.’’ IF I COULD TURN BACK TIME It’s like a step back in time ... a time when beach towels and bathers were rinsed in a shared laundry tub and hung on the clothes line to dry in the sea breeze from Laguna Bay. A two-bedroom, one-bathroom, one-car apartment at Tenalga at 2/21 Allambi Rise, Noosa Heads, goes to auction today, Friday, at 4pm. Built in the 1960s, Tenalga is a peaceful complex of six apartments resting on a quiet slip road, just above Little Cove beach and the boardwalk to Noosa’s National Park. Main Beach and Hastings Street are a few minutes stroll away. The fully-renovated apartment 2 appears to “float’’ at the rear of the complex, its elevated position giving views to Laguna Bay and Noosa North Shore. Luke Chen of Tom Offermann Real Estate describes it as a cute apartment with a lot of history. It is still within the same family that has owned it from late ’60s.

When Tenalga was built there were no numbers on the doors, Luke said, just names such as Sunset, Tanglewood, and Sparkling Sea. “There is interest,’’ he said. “We have indications of people wanting to attend … particularly from Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast. “They have been watching the market, and the building … waiting for something to come up. “It’s got a following. And there are just six in the block.’’ The prime aspect of this apartment are the expansive views through the floor-toceiling glass doors. The kitchen features a stone-topped island bar and induction cooktop, built-in dishwasher and microwave. To the left, there’s a study area, wine nook and internal washing. The living area is open-plan and leads out onto the spacious balcony. As well as he main bathroom there is a wet room off the main bedroom’s walk-in robe. PERFECT ASPECT It has arguably the best aspect of Noosa Main Beach and Laguna Bay … you can see along Hastings St, to the river and the hinterland. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom Apartment 15 at No.1 in Hastings St, Morwong Dve, Noosa Heads, is set for auction Saturday, March 26, at 11am. “It’s got everything,’’ Tom Offermann Real Estate’s Luke Chen said. “It has got a big following in Melbourne. “There is something like 80 percent ownership in No.1 in Hastings from Victoria’s capital city. “The majority of the interest is from there.’’ The open-plan living and dining spaces open seamlessly to the undercover terrace that stretches the width of the apartment. The U-shaped kitchen has 2-pac cabinetry, stone bench tops, the latest appliances and everything needed for the high-end holiday market. The king-size main bedroom suite with terrace access, has a wall mounted television, a walk-in robe with long double vanity basins and ensuite bathroom. Two twin bedrooms have direct access to a family-style bathroom with a bathtub. WESTERN QUEENSLAND BUYERS A buyer’s agent inspected the five-bedroom, five-bathroom house with pool at 173 Valley Dve, Doonan, at an open home

on the Tuesday. Kess Prior of Hinternoosa said the agent took a video of the striking two-level house and 0.57ha property then sent it to clients at Roma, in Western Queensland. The clients were looking to downsize and a contract was submitted on the Thursday ahead of last Saturday’s scheduled auction at midday. Today, Friday, Kess is taking the four-bedroom, four-bathroom house with pool on 0.87ha at 10 Marnie Cres, Doonan, to the market at 1pm. From all the feedback in the lead-up to the event, it should be a cracker. BEACHSIDE OASIS It’s a beachside oasis ... a five-bedroom, three-bathroom, two-car house with pool at Marcus Beach that backs onto bushland yet within walking distance of the ocean. The property, at 4 Chestnut Ct, goes to auction Saturday, March 26, at 4pm with Tracy Russell of Tom Offermann Real Estate. “We’re getting good calls on it,’’ Tracy said. “It’s a family-friendly home that has got character. “There are high ceilings throughout some raked - and a mix of timber and tiled flooring. The open plan living spaces flow inside and out. “It’s a lovely parcel of land - 990sq m near the the beach, and with gardens as well as fruit trees. “It backs onto a nature reserve that provides a private green outlook. “There is potential for dual occupancy, a studio or to work from home.’’ HASTINGS STREET SALE Frank Milat and Shane McCauley at Richardson & Wrench Noosa have reported the sale of the two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment 433/32 Hastings St, Noosa Heads, for $2.1m. The Sebel apartment sold prior to auction on March 4. Apartment 411 is scheduled to go to auction at 1pm on Thursday, April 14. The auction of the Starlight Suite penthouse at Netanya, 71 Hastings St, Noosa Heads, on Saturday evening, saw active bidding on the four-bedroom beachfront apartment from $10m. It was passed in at $17m and the agents are working with interest to have it sold over the coming days. HINTERLAND FAVOURITE Mark Hodgkinson and Cassandra Young of Reed & Co had four registered bidders

for the auction of the three-bedroom, twobathroom house with pool on 0.6ha at 11 Hinterland Cl, Tinbeerwah, last Friday. The property sold under the hammer for $1.950m to a Sydney family relocating to the area. They had come up to inspect during the campaign, lured by friends who had already moved to the area. Mark and Cassandra next have a renovated two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment 4/1 Peza Court, Noosa Sound, scheduled for auction at 1pm on April 6.

5-STAR HILTON PARK RIVERFRONT APARTMENT DISCOVER the epitome of riverside sophistication with a lavish 5-star apartment, dazzling water views optimising the perfect northerly aspect, and an expressive Frank Macchia design juxtaposing the spirit of indoor-outdoor spaces for all seasons, with the energy of a remarkable setting. Open the bespoke statement door and all becomes obvious. The apartment indulges definitive avant-garde flair, and with gallery-like walls adorned with collectibles and massive mirrors, this is hallway heaven. Lofty ceiling heights and the extensive use of glass via floorto-ceiling panes, banks of louvres and disappearing doors, maximise natural light which seemingly shadow dances on endless white terrazzo flooring. Designer leather sofas, ottomans and timber tables in the exhilarating living and dining areas, are in-vogue with the fresh monochromatic palette and pops of colourful artworks. Both spaces have wispy white sheers

and open to the undercover terrace with its seamless connection to the luminous blue-green of the Noosa River. It’s a mesmerising scene with bobbing leisure craft, the picturesque Noosa North Shore ahead and the water’s edge below with its bright red Poinciana, white-sand foreshore, enormous pool, long jetty, and a mooring assigned to each apartment. The luxe kitchen with simple lines albeit a curvaceous custom-made Coriantopped island/breakfast bar, caramel-hued cabinetry, and high-end appliances, is the full complement. When it comes to dreamtime, there are three bedrooms beautifully decorated in muted greys and pale yellow. The king master suite has a terrace with those magical river views, television, a built-in robe, also a fashionista-style long walk-in wardrobe with dressing room and built-in make-up/desk space, large ensuite with travertine-tiled walls and floors, plus double vanity. The two other queen-size bedrooms

have built-in robes, one has an ensuite and the other has an adjoining bathroom. Off the laundry is a drying terrace and store. “When it comes to location and lifestyle, this spectacular 5-star apartment hits the high notes,” says Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Eric Seetoo, “and the distinctively contemporary Hilton Park, is unlike anything else. The exclusive gated enclave of ten apartments is the only property on the Noosa River foreshore with a mooring for each apartment owner.” Facts & Features: Apartment Area: 297m2 About: north-facing; white terrazzo throughout living areas; 2.8m ceilings; muted grey/white palette; banks of louvers/picture windows/sliding doors; sheer window treatments; hallway w 4 massive mirrors, leather sofas & ottomans + coffee tables; living/dining w numerous custom cabinetry for display purposes; ducted air/fans; bedrooms w caramel-hued plush carpet; direct ac-

ON THE COVER

PRESTIGE LITTLE COVE, FAMOUS SURF BREAKS OF NOOSA FALLING for an exclusive and secluded pocket of paradise between the azure waters of Noosa Main Beach and the famous surf breaks of Noosa National Park, is so easy, especially when the chic apartment has ocean views and only minutes walk to the glistening white sand of Little Cove Beach. Charismatic and exclusive, it has always been held in high regard for prestige property investors especially Alderly apartments, a boutique complex which surrounds beautiful, landscaped gardens with a central pool. It is also part of the welcoming view from the apartment and is on the doorstep of the entry to the national park. Northerly sunshine drenches the generous open plan living spaces and picks up on the neutral tones in the polished marble floors throughout the apartment. There is a seamless transition from indoors out the terrace where the aspect suggests sundowners and barbecues. The cool-night entertaining alternative is a designated dining area, closer to the kitchen with its breakfast bar, stone topped 2-pac cabinetry and all the high-end whizz bang Miele appliances to suit any serious cook. Along the hallway with storage aplenty are three bedrooms, two with wedgeshaped tall windows and seating. Look out over leafy Mitti Street with its lush green backdrop, and nature lovers will enjoy a chorus of birdsong or spot a koala, colourful parrots, goannas and more. The king master suite has a walk-in robe and a double shower in the ensuite with floor to ceiling marble tiles. The additional bedrooms with builtin robes have an adjoining family-size bathroom, also tiled in marble, a separate toilet and hideaway laundry with washing machine and dryer. Take the carpeted stairs to the piece de resistance and note the office alcove

or kid’s study space on the way to the massive rooftop terrace, and sigh. Drink in the filtered views across Laguna Bay and over to Noosa North Shore and beyond to Coloured Sands. And let’s not forget brilliant sunsets. Check out the path in the gardens below which leads to Park Road, directly across from the stairs to Little Cove Beach. Envisage taking the environmental awardwinning boardwalk to the world-famous surfing reserve on the right or go left if Hastings Street is on your list of shopping, art viewing, dining or cocktail moments. “This stunning contemporary apartment is sundrenched year-round,” explains Tom Offermann’s No. 1 Real Estate agent Eric Seetoo who has slated it for auction if not sold prior to. “It affords the convenience of Little Cove with everything wonderful to eat, see and experience, yet safe in the knowledge the investment is underpinned by a never-ending pool of future buyers, all seeking the same enviable financial success with a piece of Noosa’s hottest real estate.” Facts & Features: Apartment Area: 222m2 Garage: 2 car accommodation Terraces: Rooftop 4m x 10.3mw filtered views over Laguna Bay & beyond; terrace off living 5.8m x 2.2mw access via stairway to pool & garage About: polished marble flooring throughout + bathroom walls; ducted aircon + fans; office Alcove; Laundry w Bosch washer + dryer Inventory: fully inclusive to cater for highend holiday market Kitchen: U-shaped, stone-topped 2-pac cabinetry; new Miele dishwasher, cooktop, oven & microwave; Fisher & Paykel fridge Alderly: boutique complex w pool surrounded by gardens; outdoor shower Location: mins Walk to Little Cove Beach; Hastings Street/Noosa Main Beach; Noosa National Park ●
