It’s no wonder Noosa house prices are always in the news with design and construction awards aplenty this week going to some spectacular work by builders in the creation of homes and buildings at Noosa Heads, Tinbeerwah and Coolum Beach.

And while properties are gaining attention for their aesthetic and architectural appeal, one home owner is challenging council’s ability to define their use on a point of law.

A duplex owner in Stevens Street, Sunshine Beach was told by council that his use of a duplex for short-term accommodation was unlawful and must cease.

But the home owner is questioning the local law, saying the lack of appropriate development approval for short term accommodation is no basis for refusing it. He is going to fight it in the Planning and Environment Court.

Councillors this week said the outcome of the interesting case may set a precedent in the shire.

The rising cost of housing is hitting home for many, including our own journalist, Abbey Cannan, who is feeling the pinch of rapidly rising rents.

In this issue Abbey writes about the impact of surging increases and stagnant wages that is leaving many on the brink of homelessness.

In our sports pages, Ron Lane has turned the spotlight from the athletes and has been looking at the achievements of local coaches.

Noosa is home to a number of world class coaches and this week Ron has highlighted the far-reaching impact of two - boxing coach Mark Evans and jiu-jitsu coach, Professor Yoshi Hasegawa

Flying fox plan set to land

By Margie Maccoll Noosa Council is preparing a document on flying fox management to set out the legislation surrounding the protected native animals, council’s management capabilities and advice and assistance available to people impacted by colonies.

The Flying Fox Statement of Management Intent (SoMI) sets out council’s approach to flying-fox management within the Noosa Shire, and provides guidance to staff, contractors, and private landholders.

The wildlife which is protected under state and Australian government legislation provides critical ecological services, particularly through its seed dispersal.

The SoMi sets out council’s obligation to take management action on council-owned or managed land and its commitment to assist all residents.

“We have a number of flying fox roosts and issues like noise, odour, droppings on peoples’ assets,“ a council officer told council’s Planning and Environment committee meeting on Tuesday.

“It’s good to get a document out there for residents to have. It provides guidance for all stakeholders.

“It’s difficult to communicate what management actions there are in phone calls. Being able to provide this document as a first point of contact allows residents to understand the legislation and then they can come back to council to receive assistance.“

Flying foxes in Noosa Shire.

The officer said council does not disperse flying fox colonies with scientific research showing dispersal only splits a colony resulting in several colonies impacting other residents.

Flying fox management processes available to council include the use of sprinklers to discourage the animals from an area, vegetation trimming to clean a small buffer for residents and through a subsidy program providing assistance to residents such as car covers, air

Flying fox fresheners or pressure cleaners.

Under the subsidy program support may be offered for those living within 100m of a roost site, the roost should be at least partly on council-managed land, flying-foxes will have been at a location in significant numbers for at least six weeks and a significant number of the flying-foxes must be Black or Grey-headed Flying-foxes, rather than Little Red Flying-foxes.

Council has three flying fox colony management plans underway at Wallace Park, Noosaville, Keys Creek, Kin Kin and in Cooroy and 4-6 identified flying fox colonies around the shire.

After approval by councillors the draft Flying Fox SoMI will be released for community consultation through Your Say Noosa on council’s website then a report prepared for a future council meeting.

Noosa Airfield appeals against push to get approval

By Margie Maccoll After operating for decades without Noosa Council development approval, Noosa Airfield has appealed an enforcement notice issued to them by council to apply for planning approval.

During council’s Planning and Environment Committee meeting on Tuesday councillors heard the airstrip on Lake Weyba Drive, Noosaville, had obtained original town planning consent in the 1990s but that had lapsed “years ago“.

A rezoning approval sought by the airfield from the state government to operate as a Special Facility was never completed, officers told the meeting.

Council staff only became aware the airstrip was in use in 2016-17 when they investigated complaints of numerous trucks carrying fill to the site.

Their investigation discovered the clearing of vegetation and the placement of a significant amount of uncontrolled fill material and builders demolition material into a manmade waterway.

Officers said since then they had “encouraged“ the owner to submit a development application to operate the airstrip and issued

Noosa Airfield on Weyba Road, Noosaville.

Picture: GOOGLE MAPS formal notices to request the submission of an application but it had not been met with a satisfactory outcome, and the owner had appealed an enforcement notice to comply in the Planning and Development Court.

Officers said they have received recent complaints from residents near Lake Weyba about aircraft noise coming from the airstrip.

Noosa Today questioned several residents on Lake Weyba Drive about aircraft usage and was told they were aware of aircraft, mostly ultralights using the airstrip, they

believed local airplane owners stored their aircraft in hangars on site and that the strip had been used by emergency service aircraft during emergencies including recent floods and fires.

The residents spoken to made no complaints about aircraft noise but said they had known the airstrip existed before they moved to the area. The airstrip is shut to public access.

Cr Brian Stockwell said the operator was basically claiming squatters’ rights - if you haven’t taken action until now, you can’t take action now.

Cr Tom Wegener asked if council would be liable if there was a crash and the airstrip was found to be operating without approval.

“Airstrips have safety issues around them,“ he was told.

“We aren’t a regulator of aircraft movements,“ Noosa chief executive officer Scott Waters told the meeting.

“Our role is about regulation on-ground approval.“ Officers said the planning scheme supported an airstrip on the site and there was nothing to indicate it was dangerous.

They said the Civil Aviation Safety Author-

ity (CASA) had been advised the site approval had lapsed.

“Their response has been it’s for council to address,“ the officer said.

A spokesman for CASA said they categorised the private airstrip as an unregulated facility called an aircraft landing area (ALA) and they had no involvement in the issue.

“It is the responsibility of the ALA operator and /or a pilot to determine the suitability of the facility for use,“ CASA said.

In its appeal against the enforcement notice, Noosa Airfield claimed “council has consented to the use continuing; sought to recognise its existence through its planning schemes, and did not raise any concerns about the absence of approvals until 2018 and therefore it would be unreasonable to require Noosa Airfield to apply for a development approval“.

The appeal notice also suggests that residents’ complaints should be given little weight given the airstrip’s existence was well known in the locality and was consistent with the planning scheme’s intent for the site, informing the reasonable expectations of the community. The issue has been referred to council’ general committee meeting next Monday for more discussion.

C2 Projects was among the other big winners on the night, scooping the Alan Eichmann Memorial Award for Innovation for Saving The Geddes.

Judges described the restoration and renovation of this original 1965 Kings Beach house as a work of art.

C2 Projects preserved as much of the original home’s character as possible while creating a more liveable space and maximising the coastal views.

Mitchell Jensen from MLB Design & Construction was awarded Construction Skills Queensland Apprentice of the Year with Jordan Jolly from Stroud Homes nabbing the Women in Building award.

Winner of the 2022 Sunshine Coast Xact Accounting House of the Year - Braeden Constructions for Modern Thai House Located in the serene waterfront location of Noosa Heads, the Modern Thai House exudes contemporary style.

Designed to open up completely for an indoor-outdoor living feel, the Modern Thai House is an entertainer’s dream.

Wrapping around a central tropical oasis, the home includes a basement living level that is below the river.

This three-level waterfront home boasts an outdoor dining pavilion, while a fire pit and seating give the illusion of floating in the pool.

Judges’ comments “With its striking roof design and timber highlights throughout adding to the tropical elegance, this Thai inspired home transports you to another world the moment you step inside.

“The attention to detail is a reflection of outstanding workmanship worthy of the 2022 House of the Year Award.”

In accepting the House of the Year Award, Mick Devlin of Braeden Constructions said they were a small family company with a great team but would spend the next 12 months just trying to secure materials and keep up with price increases.

“Everything you have to do is just to try and keep afloat at times like this,’’ he said. “Yet it’s important to look after the trades who looked after you over the years.

“And it’s important in the years to come for us all to look after the youth that are coming into the industry.

“There’s a shortage of trades and if it keeps getting worse we are going to be in trouble in a few years time - look after your apprentices and do what we can to keep supporting the industry.’’

Cheap avo, soaring rent

By Abbey Cannan A rent hike of $115 per week is what renters on the Sunshine Coast have recently copped to the chin.

I’m one of those many renters who will be saying goodbye to pilates and avocado toast while on the verge of homelessness.

In a 2017 headline, The Guardian wrote, Millionaire tells millennials: if you want a house, stop buying avocado toast.

In a plot twist, avocados are now cheaper than chips, selling for just $1. So, I guess I’ll still have the luxury of eating avocado toast while living in a tent.

Everybody’s Home national spokesperson, Kate Colvin, said the compounding impact of spiking rents and stagnant wages was smashing living standards and putting people at risk of homelessness.

“We know that rental stress is the gateway to homelessness,” Kate Colvin said.

“When you combine surging rents with flat wages, you put people in a financial vice. For the past three years that vice has been tightening.

“Homelessness providers are reporting stories of families with full time breadwinners being forced to live in tents. In a wealthy nation like Australia, this is nothing short of a national disgrace.

“The recent change of Government represents an opportunity for a reset. For a decade, construction of new social and affordable housing has withered. Now is the time to get moving and give people on low and modest incomes genuine choice.“ A journalist’s wage definitely falls into the low and modest income bracket, so if I wasn’t living in a share house, the rent would almost chew up my whole pay cheque.

Is the glamorous waterfront home that I live in worth that amount of money? Yes, of course this prime real estate would be worth us not

The van we will end up living in once we can no longer afford rent on the Sunshine Coast. being able to save a dollar for our future. Except, I live in a tiny townhouse in an estate that definitely isn’t walking distance to the beach, and close to an hour’s drive to get to work in Noosa. But, am I grateful to have a roof over my head? Certainly!

New analysis of rental data by the Everybody’s Home campaign to coincide with

Homelessness Week revealed the Queensland regions where renters are hardest hit by the toxic combination of surging increases and stagnant wages.

The three year analysis cross references SQM rental data with wage growth for workers in retail or health care and social assistance and rental increases.

Workers in those occupations saw average wages increase only 2.3 per cent annually over three years.

But over the three years leading up to 22 July, 2022, Sunshine Coast’s average rent surged 12.1 per cent each year, reaching $641 a week on average.

A real estate was caught bragging about these shocking increases, with a Reddit user sharing the email celebrating their June Achievement of the biggest rent increase reaching $225 per week.

“My rent just went up $400 a month and the agency sent me an email bragging about it,“ the Reddit user said just 10 days ago.

If you don’t laugh you’ll cry, and satirical media platforms have kept some renters from spiralling. And by some, once again, I’m talking about myself.

“Landlord files for bankruptcy after tenant paying $1000 a week asks him to remove a bit of mould,“ The Chaser wrote.

Journalists continued the joke with, “Landlord forced to increase rent by 40 per cent to combat 1.75 per cent rise in interest rates.“ Beetoota Advocate writers also joined in on the gag saying, “Climate crisis to end housing crisis with new beach front properties in Ipswich.“ It is time for state and federal governments to intervene to limit the size of the increase with reference to inflation.

Ms Colvin said, “Jim Chalmers and Anthony Albanese have been clear that public spending should expand the economy and improve productivity. Social housing meets those objectives better than almost anything.“ “There really is no better return on the taxpayer’s dollar than providing the homes Australian families need to be healthy, productive workers, and to raise their families with the stability and security of a decent home.”

Tourism awards win

By Abbey Cannan Noosa charity WomenKind is set to host an empowering luncheon with a dynamic crusader against domestic violence, Rosie Batty.

Rosie was awarded the 2015 Australian of the Year, less than a year after her ex-partner murdered their son Luke in February 2014.

Fronting the media on the morning after his death was the start of her becoming an outspoken crusader, dedicated to campaigning for an end to violence against women and children.

The luncheon will take place with a group of experts on Friday 2 September at Noosa Boathouse from 11.30am.

The Boathouse will provide a two course lunch and drink for $75 and tickets are selling fast.

WomenKind founder Josanne Falla said she would love for as many people as possible to attend this one-time only intimate conversation.

“We were lucky enough to secure a sponsor to bring Rosie up to speak at Mingle with The Mayors Ball on 3 September,” Josanne said.

“The ball tickets were sold out in three days.

We felt the call to provide another function in order to enable us to reach more people, particularly women, and invited five local women who are experts in the fields of DFV in one way or another to join Rosie for a conversation that matters.

“The lunch named Empowerment through Education will be a Q&A to our experts as to how and what we need to do to create positive and lasting changes for women.

“Let’s break the cycle of Domestic and Family Violence together.”

WomenKind Australia is a member based not for profit which aims to empower, educate and support local women to achieve their potential.

Tree kill restoration Dead trees suspected of being poisoned at Noosa Heads will be left in place and the ground around them planted out with native climbers to help rehabilitate the protected area.

Council’s development assessment manager Kerri Coyle said staff were working with the Settler’s Cove body corporate to restore the area – part of a protected vegetation covenant on privately owned land adjacent Noosa inlet.

“The covenant is in place to protect and conserve this vegetation as it provides an important wildlife corridor for koalas and contributes to the vegetated green backdrop to Noosa inlet, viewable from a number of vantage points at Noosa Heads,” Ms Coyle said.

The trees suspected of being poisoned include Bribie Island Pines, estimated to be 60 years old, and Hard Quandongs.

“Soil testing near the dead trees has shown the presence of Hexazinone and Tebuthiuron – herbicides used to kill woody vegetation in grazing lands.”

Ms Coyle said a concerned resident alerted Council to the suspected tree kill.

“Anyone found to poison, damage or clear native vegetation in breach of the planning scheme will face infringements and/or pros-

ecution by Council.”

In addition to the native vines that will be encouraged to climb the dead trees, the site is being replanted with replacement trees, while nesting boxes will also be installed to support native wildlife.

“We are also seeking the body corporate to remediate the soil to remove the herbicide.”

Man charged after Coolum Beach fatality A man has been charged following a fatal traffic crash in Coolum Beach in May this year.

Forensic Crash Investigators charged a 36-year-old Coolum Beach man on Friday 5 August with two counts each of dangerous operation of a vehicle causing death or Grievous Bodily Harm and one count each of drug driving and driver failing to restrain a child under four.

Around 2.15pm on Monday 30 May, police will allege the man was driving a silver Mitsubishi Pajero southbound on the Sunshine Motorway when it collided with a Mazda CX-9 heading north.

Two three-year-old passengers were seated in the rear of the 4WD. The boy suffered critical injuries and passed away in the Sunshine Coast University Hospital the following day.

The man and girl sustained minor injuries only. The 38-year-old woman driver of the Mazda and a 12-year-old girl sustained serious and significant injuries and were discharged from hospital on Thursday 4 August.

A four-year-old boy from this vehicle sustained minor injuries only.

The man was granted police bail and will appear in Maroochydore Magistrates Court on Friday 26 August.

Mural artist fuels passion Mural artist Claire Fuzeillear Matthews has taken out the Fuel Your Passion competition and a whopping $10,000 from Eumundi Brewery, nudging out an impressive cast of Sunshine Coast artists and creatives.

The two runners up were drawing artist Dan Hannay and musician and multi-cultural teacher Samuela Taukave AKA Skillz FJ, each awarded a cheque for $5000.

The Fuel Your Passion competition was shaped by the Eumundi Brewery team to support and fuel the passion of the many artists and innovators on the Coast – aware that the last couple of years had been particularly challenging for the arts and creative sector.

Eumundi Brewery head brewer Chris Sheehan said the final eight were put to a public vote, with Claire and her incredible mural work emerging victorious.

“Full credit to Claire – for such magnificent work, and work with real heart that clearly resonated with local voters,” Chris said.

Bli Bli-based Claire arrived on the Coast (from the UK) 13 years ago and has been painting as Fuzeillear for nine years, her work underpinned by a passion for protecting our environment.

“I paint public murals that highlight and champion our native wildlife species and the challenges they face,” Claire said.

“Winning the comp means I can now paint bigger and better walls and spread the message further.

“Life can be stressful, busy and complicated but I aim to create public art that allows passers-by to stop, take a breath and even just for a moment, drift away.“ Claire’s murals can be found in Maroochydore, Eumundi, Landsborough, Caloundra, Kawana, Maroochydore, Buderim, Nambour and Noosa, as well as further afield.

In designing each piece, she researches the local flora and fauna to make something that will connect specifically to that area, to that community.

“I love painting walls and I count it as a privilege to be invited into a community to do so. My hope is always to leave something that will make a difference, whether that be to remind people of the fragile beauty of the world around us or just to make someone feel a little bit brighter and a little less alone,” Claire said.

Noosa Sound turning 50

By Phil Jarratt As we start to see the $9 million upgrade of Noosa Parade take shape, it’s worth reflecting that it’s 50 years ago this month that work on the original $3 million, 300-homesite canal development, that changed Hay’s Island into Noosa Sound, began with the building of a concrete retaining wall around the mangrove swamp island.

A cynic might note that you got a lot more bang for your million bucks back in those days, especially when you consider that the current upgrade is a zero sum game, trading off a bit of nature strip for a bit of bike path, or vice versa, but ending up with exactly the same shared space that we had.

It’s also worth noting that when the upgrade went to community consultation five years ago the price tag was a mere $3-5 million. But no one questioned it back then so let’s not fret about it now, when it’s a lot easier to reflect on the mistakes of the more distant past.

Noosa Sound, the first major development that would change Noosa’s future, and ultimately pit the progressives – as the pro-development lobby liked to be known - against the environmentalists in a long and often ugly battle over the integrity of the Noosa River system, had its origins back in July 1946, when newly-elected Noosa councillor Edgar Bennett proposed the building of a bridge from near Hastings Street to Hay’s Island as a first step to stabilising and later developing the river’s mangrove swamp islands.

Bennett was way ahead of his time during the two terms he served as a councillor, and not always in a good way. Had he come a decade later Noosa would look very different today.

Over that ration card summer of 1946-7, Bennett also proposed the shire’s first dedicated parking lot and a coastal headland road skirting the soon-to-be-declared national

In 1964 two separate proposals were put to Noosa Shire Council seeking approval for residential development on Hay’s Island. Both were rejected, but by 1969, the Ian Macdonaldled council took a different view and approved

a proposal from a company called Noosa Island Estates, which was soon revealed to be a front for Australia’s biggest land developer and financier, Cambridge Credit, and its retail affiliate Inter-Capital Investments.

The proposed development, to be known as Noosa Sound, was massive. It involved clearing the mangroves, dredging sand from the river to raise the land level by a metre, and the building of three bridges.

It was expected to take five years to complete, with blocks of land then being offered for up to $10,000. The tender was officially accepted in September 1970 by the hard-drinking Minister for Lands, Vic Sullivan who tossed a few down at the official announcement at Brisbane’s Park Royal Motor Inn and declared loftily: “Most of the area… is an unsightly combination of mangrove swamps, mud flats and sandbanks… the main breeding grounds for mosquitos and sandflies.”

Empty dust bowl, 1972.

When work on the development actually began with the retaining wall around the island in August 1972, environmentalist and author Nancy Cato said opposition was confined to “several isolated voices raised in protest at the beginning, including those of local fishermen who feared the effect on fish stocks...”

Veteran solicitor Bob Cartwright remembers it differently: “There was a lot of fear and skepticism, particularly from the old hands in Noosaville, who thought the sea would roll right over it. Mind you, they weren’t too sure about Hastings Street either. As far as they were concerned it was a sand spit and not that stable.”

The first stage of Noosa Sound was opened

by Premier Joh Bjelke-Petersen in December 1973, with waterfront lots now being offered from $12,000.

Speaking to a large gathering of dignitaries and salivating real estate agents, the premier continued the theme that “a former pestinfested area” had been transformed into a

Dredging the river to make the Sound. “beautiful housing estate”.

A month later Cyclone Wanda ripped down the coast and devastated Main Beach and The Woods camping area, and flooded parts of Noosaville and Tewantin.

Bob Cartwright donned his wet weather gear and stepped out of his new law office in Noosa Junction to inspect the damage.

He recalled: “On the Sound, about 100 metres along, just opposite the Woods, the river level was so high it was lapping the top of the retaining wall, and when there was a set or a surge from the ocean, ripples would break across the road, and wash out holes in the gravel. There was no doubt that it was in danger.”

For some time, the Mineral Deposits sandmining company had been mining leases on Noosa’s lower North Shore, with a procession of tip trucks barging across the river and disgorging their loads day and night at the end of Moorindil Street, Tewantin, to await delivery to the processing plant across the NSW border at

Cudgen. In the aftermath of the cyclone, these trucks would be diverted to Noosa Sound every low tide, where the heavy, mineral-rich sand would be packed into the cracks and holes.

But if the awesome power of the sea was endangering the new development before it really got started, an even greater danger was about to explode in the sunless canyons of Sydney’s financial district.

On 27 September 1974 shares in Cambridge Credit plunged by 80 percent overnight, signalling the most sensational corporate collapse in Australian history to that point.

Three days after the shares collapsed, Cambridge Credit’s board informed the stock exchange it could not meet quarterly interest payments due that day. The company’s liabilities were estimated at $190 million. The next day receivers were appointed.

Although court battles on behalf of its 38,000 investors would continue for 14 years, Cambridge’s decade of being a developer pretending to be a finance company was over. In

the bigger picture for Cambridge Credit, Noosa Sound was almost collateral damage, but there were many locals who looked at the neat, empty, clear-felled estate leading to a dead end, and wondered, what now?

But at the end of 1974 the Weyba Creek bridge was finished, joining the Sound to Munna Point and Noosaville, and the moonscape slowly gave way to a desirable residential estate. I do, however, remember being in Noosa on a magazine assignment in 1979, and being invited to dinner at one of the new riverfront homes on Noosa Parade. It was very nice sitting on the terrace with a drink and looking across the inlet at the little hippie yachts and the old campground, but we were otherwise surrounded by dusty paddocks.

I remember thinking, why would you want to live out here on the edge of civilisation?

Well, people did.

In fact there’s one on the market right now for $21 million if you’re quick.

Wave generator that could And they said it would never work!

While an enormous amount of human energy (not to mention money) has been poured into the development of alternative and sustainable power sources over the past decade, none has had such a bad rap as wave energy.

Often dismissed as a surfer’s impossible dream – maybe even incorporating a wave machine on the side – ocean wave energy conversion schemes have been wiping out around our coastlines at the rate of one every 18 months.

In 2010, a large wave sank a wave energy generator off the New South Wales coast, and in 2014 in South Australia, a unit was being towed into position when one of the flotation devices ruptured and it sank.

Numerous others have lost funding after inconclusive trials, but the biggest wipeout was what developers billed the world’s largest wave energy project – to be built off Portland in Victoria – which was abandoned by US company Ocean Power Technologies in 2014 as not commercially viable. The $232 million project had $66.5 million in funding support from the Australian government.

But according to industry sources and the ABC, for the first time in Australia a wave energy converter trial has successfully generated enough energy from ocean waves to power homes.

“This is really the first project that has successfully generated electricity for a customer, and that goes to prove that ocean energy can work,” Stephanie Thornton from Australian Ocean Energy Group told the ABC’s Jessica Moran.

The pilot wave generator, which sits just off the beach at Grassy Harbour on King Island in Bass Strait, has been generating power for the island’s local energy grid for the past year.

“It’s a huge success from our point of view,” said King Island mayor Julie Arnold.

“It’s providing power for the island, it’s renewable, it’s a method that could be used in other places so we’re very happy to be pioneering it.”

According to Paul Geason, chief executive officer of Wave Swell Energy, the Melbournebased company that built the generating system, the 12-month trial has proven the capabilities of the technology: “We’ve been generating electricity from the waves of the Southern Ocean that have been captured in the unit, and that was our primary objective.

That electricity is of a very high quality and has been accepted by Hydro Tasmania as suitable for the grid on King Island, so that’s a very important achievement.”

“The conversion rates that we’ve been able to achieve in terms of the amount of electricity we are able to extract from the wave energy that comes into the unit is very high,” Mr Geason added.

“On average, we’ve been able to achieve conversion rates of 48 per cent, so 48 per cent of the energy that comes in with the wave is then exported onto the grid on King Island.

That rate is higher than other renewable energy technologies.”

The burning question is why will the Wave

Swell Energy model succeed long term where so many others have failed? The WSE team puts it down to the unique blow hole design.

The $12 million unit was constructed in Launceston and extensively tested at the Australian Maritime College before being towed into position at Grassy Harbour. Since then, it has been tested in a range of harsh weather conditions.

“We have now operated the unit and it has survived for the last 12 months in the very harsh conditions of Bass Strait,” Mr Geason said.

“The next stage is now to move forward and commercialise the technology and see it become mainstream as part of the global mix of renewable energies.”

The 200-kilowatt wave energy converter has no moving parts in the water and uses an oscillating water column design, which essentially mimics a natural blow hole. Waves go in, rise and fall, and move air up into the turbine, which then converts into power. It sits on the seabed and has an opening on one side to allow the movement of the waves in and out of the chamber. The pilot converter on King Island is a scale model with commercial-scale products expected to be at least five times the size.

Mr Geason said he would love to see another unit operating off the Australian coastline.

“Given we are an emerging technology, the very obvious market for us to pursue is the Australian market.

“The Australian oceans have some of the best waves in the world, and waves that are well located to grid access, and to electricity

But he said more support for the industry was needed.

“Solar and wind have received substantial government support [and] wave is now in that position. It needs policy support and fund-

ing, that’s vital for the industry taking its next steps.”

Meanwhile, experts in renewable energy have said the stigma around the failure rate of previous wave energy converters also needed to change for the sector to move forward.

Maybe that time has come.

Beach clean up for turtles November is the start of the nesting season for marine turtles when species, such as the endangered loggerhead turtle and vulnerable green turtle, come ashore to lay their eggs on Sunshine Coast beaches.

To help get our local beaches ready for their arrival, Sunshine Coast teachers are encouraged to book their classes now so they can join the Schools Beach Clean Up Super Series from 17 October to 4 November.

At the half-day program, students will participate in cleaning up their local beach, learning about coastal processes and generating ideas to reduce waste at the source.

Environment and Liveability Portfolio Councillor Peter Cox encouraged schools to sign up for a rewarding and enriching end-ofyear experience.

“Each year, hundreds of Sunshine Coast students step up to clean up the sand and dunes for the nesting turtles,” Cr Cox said.

“Last year, over six weeks 686 students, parents and teachers from 10 schools removed almost 100 kgs of rubbish from 14 beaches across the Sunshine Coast.

“We are very grateful for their help and feedback from teachers is that it’s an impactful way to learn about ways we can all change our behaviour to create a more sustainable future.”

The super series runs from 9am – 12.30pm and includes: Stage 1: Beach clean-up from 9–10.30am at a local beach. Council will provide all safety equipment, all sorting and data collection equipment and all Covid-19 safety requirements. The beach clean-up will take 1.5 hours and will include information about the issue of marine debris, a safety talk and beach clean-up.

Then it’s back to the school for morning tea and Stage 2 of the super series.

flora and fauna that call our beaches home.

3: Source reduction workshop from 12– · Stage 12.30pm at their school. This is the final leg of the super series and one of the most intense as we join forces for a 20-minute workshop.

This is a chance for students to reflect on the data collected, and the information they’ve discovered and generate a discussion around

source reduction actions and possible solutions to some of our local challenges identified through the super series.

There are limited spaces as only one school can be allocated to each day.

The Pub Test

Is it a voice for change?

PHIL JARRATT and the circle of beer swillers put the issues of the day to the Pub Test. This week a woman who grew up surrounded by small town racism, a First Nations man, a migrant and two locals discuss the Albanese government’s proposal to enshrine an Indigenous advisory body in the Constitution.

(The Pub Test is an edited transcript of a real conversation.)

Ringleader: Everyone got a coldie? Right, let’s start with the referendum question and the explanatory sentences. What do we think? Is this a good start?

Indigenous voice: I think this is just another one of those touchy feel good things with no power attached to it. I was proud when previously the Indigenous mob knocked this sort of thing on the head.

Ringleader: Did you feel the same way about the Uluru Statement From the Heart?

IV: I was disappointed when I read it. There didn’t seem to be a lot to it. I was proud of the fact that the mob had got together to make a statement, but it just wasn’t done blackfeller’s way. It’s the same for you guys. How representative are your politicians of you? That’s how many of us felt about our mob who’d been put in these positions of power.

Ringleader: So you’d rather there was no statement on the Voice at the Garma Festival last week?

IV: I’m ambiguous about it. I’m not against it being put out there, I just don’t regard it as valid. It won’t change anything. It’ll be like Native Title. All it does is legitimise the people who took the land from you because you’re engaging with them. In a way you’re authorising what’s been done, which is why a lot of Indigenous people have lost interest in Native Title .

Female voice: I’ll vote yes [at the referendum], but I’m a white, privileged woman. I think back to what Paul Keating said in the Redfern Address: “Imagine if these things had happened to you”. That’s what I try to do. I understand what’s just been said, but it’s hard for me to relate to it. I feel sad about the general state of democracy and it seems like we’re barely hanging onto the shards of democracy, but the enshrinement of an Indigenous voice in the Constitution – and again I’m seeing this through white eyes – I feel offers the whole of Australia the opportunity to grow up a bit. Just about every prime minister since Whitlam has said they’ll change the Constitution and it hasn’t happened, but for me, constitutional recognition is the key because how can we leave our First People out of the process of government?

I have faith that some people in government are strategising about what comes after this enshrinement, but we can’t get to that point without constitutional change.

Local voice: Let’s not forget the idea of treaties.

12555682-SN26-22

18 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 12 August, 2022

Ready, set, go.

There’s a lot of work going on in the states, in Victoria and Queensland in particular, but it’s not going to be like New Zealand, where there’s a treaty and it’s in your face, with street signs in language and a common respect for it. It will be a long time before we see that.

FV: No, but I think it is happening, and it’s starting to happen quicker. When I see Albanese at Garma talking in his awkward and confronting language, I think, well at least he’s doing it. At least this Prime Minister is trying.

Ringleader: Let’s not forget Kevin Rudd. He tried.

FV: And what happened after the apology? A big fat nothing.

IV: And that’s the expectation of most Aboriginal people. We’ve watched 250 years of this and we don’t have any positive expectations. When you’ve been in an abusive relationship for that long, sorry just doesn’t cut it. I’m a hugely positive person about real things, I just don’t see this as real. But do I think it should go ahead?

Yes, but we need to keep our expectations low.

I know that there are good people involved in this, but whether that’s enough remains to be seen.

Picture: SUPPLIED Migrant voice: I think we need to understand that governments are important and the decisions they make do matter. We also need to understand what it is to be a right-wing conservative. If I was one I’d be listening to what is being said here and think, great, let’s cut funding because our First Nations are not willing to step up and play the game. Tony Abbott would love to hear that you don’t care about having a voice because it validates his position. I think how people respond to this proposal – and I mean all our people – has the potential to have a huge effect on our future.

Ringleader: Let’s talk briefly about what First Nations people have said already. Only one of 11 First Nations representatives in Federal Parliament has come out against it. Along with many other First Nations voices, we have Professor Tom Calma and Noel Pearson both coming out in favour with the proviso that it has to be made to work and be representative.

I also thought it was interesting that Pearson said the voice had to be understood as something that had come out of conservatism, not radicalism, which makes it harder to defeat at a referendum.

FV: I heard him say that and I thought that he

was possibly strategising by shining a light on those people, being very complimentary of Peter Dutton, for example.

Ringleader: Well, that’s the country cop thing.

They’ve worked at the coalface, therefore they understand the issues. There may be an element of truth in that, but certainly when you need bipartisan support to win, it’s strategising.

LV: I go back to the point I raised earlier about the states. We’ve seen during Covid how powerful they can be in standing up to the Commonwealth, and I think it’s time now that one of them really stepped up on the these issues.

Victoria has already started down that track, but how many decades is it since Yothu Yindi came out with the Treaty song?

FV: But that doesn’t answer the constitutional issue.

LV: No, not directly. It’s just semantics, but I agree it should be in our Constitution as the starting point. I think the sentiment is clear and the average person will support it because it’s fair and right. And then the states should be getting on with the job. Fixing Native Title might be a good place to start.

NOOSATODAY.COM.AU

Noel Pearson supports the proposal. Courtesy ABC-TV 7.30. have to be optimistic that in my lifetime we’ll see change, and part of that will be voting for the voice.

LV: I’m optimistic too. Government and governance are about compromise and about having a voice at the table, and it’s not like the whitefellers are going to all leave the country anytime soon, and it’s not likely that this third wave of multiculturalism is going to go away either. So at this point in history I think it’s such a positive and important step to have that voice representing what came before European settlement. It won’t be perfect and it’ll need a lot of work, but it’s getting some momentum at last.

FV: Albanese has called it the healing hand, and I think we are seeing white people slowly coming on board and changing their views. I know that my parents did exactly that and I think there are many of their generation who have done the same.

LV: I actually think it’s more about recognising culture than it is about race.

MV: Words are important and to have this in

Prime Minister Albanese presents the Indigenous Voice proposal at the Garma Festival.

Picture: SUPPLIED the constitution is important. I think the Albanese strategy will work because even the person who thinks it will make no difference wouldn’t vote no to the proposition that our First People should have a voice. Yes, it’s just a few words but I think it will make an enormous difference to establishing our identity.

IV: I think this is such a given that you wonder why we’re sitting around talking about it more than half a century after the 1967 referendum decided overwhelmingly that Aboriginal people had rights.

MV: I think this process brings us all closer to being one mob. When people talk about narrowing the gap in relation to First Nations health, I think of the gap as what is happening to us Europeans as we get further removed from the Indigenous view of the world and from ourselves. I’d like to close that gap and develop an Aboriginal understanding of culture, and maybe this voice is going to help us achieve that.

IV: These are the conversations I like to have, because that is the whole purpose of what I

do, helping Australians to become more Australian through understanding their story. This is how you win the argument, by talking about the real things. We’re all humans, just seen through different spectrums of light.

LV: I think it’s going to take a long time for the concept of the voice to be understood at any real local level.

Ringleader: Maybe, but the architects of the voice proposal have already pointed out the importance of the fact that it’s not going to work unless it trickles down through all levels of government and community.

IV: I’d rather see it trickle up than trickle down.

Have the roots system suck the water up into the tree and allow it to grow. But it’s great we are heading towards voting on the title of a book that’s been 250 years in the making. My mob would say only governments get excited over the titles they write and the headings they intend to add over future election cycles. But I’ll slowly allow my anticipation to build as we find out who are the controlling authors who will drive the plot line.

12518594-AV43-21

IV: I’ve seen a lot of people just walk away from that process after beating the crap out of each other for 10 years or more. The lawyers take all the money and you end up with something that’s almost worthless. But to take it back to the voice proposal, yes, we have to let that cynicism go and we should support it because it’s better than nothing.

Ringleader: Does anyone think we’ve opened a can of worms with this? I’m hearing that we’ve had this ongoing process and none of it has worked. Native Title, the Redfern Address, the apology, the statement from the heart and now the voice. People have been working for years to get the words right, but we seem to be saying here that they’re only words. Is the process just going to lead to more fighting?

FV: I’m optimistic because I don’t have anything else. I’ve been arguing politics with my parents since my little kid brain just couldn’t understand the prejudices I saw. I still can’t understand things like the incarceration rate and the low life expectancy and other things that make us the worst in the world. So I just

Don’t miss Noosa Bikes

By Abbey Cannan The 2022 Noosa Marina Classic Bike Show and Swap-Meet is a celebration of bikes in all of their forms and includes a bike swap, show ‘n’ shine and more.

This year is the 10th edition of the Classic Bike Show and Shine at Noosa Marina, taking place on Saturday 13 August from 10am until 2pm.

Originally run under the umbrella of the Noosa Strade Bianche vintage bike Gran Fondo, Covid and the recent extreme weather events have forced its postponement for the last couple of years.

The bike swap is your chance to offload or load up, while the show ‘n’ shine gives you the opportunity to show off your pride and joy.

Andrew McKellear said the event was revived in response to pent-up demand from folks who had participated in past events.

“Noosa Marina has always been most welcoming of us right from the early days, when a couple of us had a hare-brained idea to run a vintage cycling event,“ he said.

“Big thanks again to Warren at Noosa Marina.“ Andrew said the Noosa Strade Bianche (NSB) was a homage to the golden age of cycling and a celebration of the steel-framed cycle.

“NSB encourages the renaissance of the artisan-built steel frame taking place across the world,“ he said.

“Many of these old bikes are like pieces of fine jewellery, with the bling and craftsmanship that isn’t seen with the modern carbon fibre bikes.

Welcome to Ibuki.

Ibuki open to new patients The Classic Bike Show and Shine will be held at Noosa Marina on Saturday 13 August from 10am until 2pm.

“For the above reasons and the fact that many more people are cycling since the pandemic began, the show is sure to be of interest to a wide section of the community. Not to mention the range of fine eateries located at Noosa Marina.“ Bicycles to be exhibited include classic 1960s and ‘70s Italian and Australian made, as well as several examples from the early 1900s.

The environmental and health benefits of choosing a bicycle as a preferred mode of transport have long been merited and at this event, bicycle enthusiasts come together to celebrate, swap, and talk about bikes over a coffee and good food.

Event entry is free for exhibitors, but they must provide their own ground level bike stand.

Orchestra brings new harp On Friday 19 August at the Majestic Theatre, Pomona, the Brisbane Philharmonic Orchestra will present an intimate evening of chamber music featuring the orchestra’s newly acquired concert harp.

The Brisbane Philharmonic Orchestra (BPO) is thrilled to present a special and intimate evening of chamber music featuring acclaimed Australian soloists – Emily Granger (harp) and Jonathan Henderson (flute).

Emily and Jonathan will be joined by members of the BPO to perform works by Mozart, Vaughan-Williams, Faure, Schoenberg, and more.

The concert will feature BPO’s stunning new Lyon and Healy Salzedo concert harp, acquired specifically for this concert series with the generous assistance of the Australian Government’s Restart Investment to Sustain and Expand (RISE) Fund.

Created in the Art Deco style characteristic of the 1920s, the Salzedo model concert harp is marked by precise linear carving and austere geometric decoration in the hard maple column and base.

The harp was handmade in the factories of world-renowned Lyon & Healy (Chicago USA), whose harps are found in concert halls round the world, from the New York Philharmonic to the Bolshoi Ballet, and are acclaimed for their remarkable depth and clarity of sound, breathtaking designs, and rich heritage of quality craftsmanship.

“As a harpist and performer I’m incredibly passionate about promoting the instrument to audiences to showcase its capabilities,“ Emily said.

“People often associate the harp as an angelic and beautiful instrument, which it is, but it’s also an incredibly diverse instrument and our program really demonstrates this!

“It’s wonderful to be taking the instrument out on the road into more regional areas so

The new harp Brisbane Philharmonic Orchestra is touring is the only one of its kind in Queensland.

Picture: ADAM FINCH people can hear and see the harp up close and personal.“ The program of music is diverse and designed to showcase the versatility of the harp in both classic and modern settings.

The concert will also feature acclaimed flutist Jonathan Henderson – acting principal flute of the Australian Opera and Ballet Orchestra, Sydney, and several members of the Brisbane Philharmonic Orchestra.

This project is generously supported by the Australian Government’s Restart Investment to Sustain and Expand (RISE) Fund.

The Guide HERE OUT WEST ABC TV, Sunday, 8.30pm

PICK OF THE WEEK

The cultural melting pot of inner-west Sydney is the landscape behind this compelling anthology-style story of eight diverse people, whose lives become connected through the tumultuous events of a single day. Each tale was penned by a different emerging new writer. Among the stars of this ambitious and tender feature film are Genevieve Lemon (The Power Of The Dog), Leah Vandenberg (The Letdown) and Rahel Romahn (Mr Inbetween), with Leah Purcell (Cleverman) and Fadia Abboud (Barons) among the ensemble of directors.

Viewers aren’t given long to get to know any of the characters, but the plot involving a newborn kidnapped from a maternity ward is striking.

ROSS KEMP: SHIPWRECK TREASURE HUNTER SBS, Friday, 8.30pm

In this compelling fourpart series premiering tonight, Ross Kemp (pictured) isn’t diving into the depths of the sea for treasure. Instead, he’s embarking on a personal and dangerous mission to explore the historical wrecks lurking in the depths of the oceans surrounding the UK. Propelled by a personal link to maritime and the sea and a penchant for history’s stories, he begins by undergoing an intense two-month scuba training program that would scare off most novices. There are beautiful and eerie sights to behold, but it’s Kemp’s openness, and the tales of those who perished, that bubbles to the surface.

THE PUBLIC IMAGE IS ROTTEN SBS Viceland, Saturday, 8.30pm

Fans of singer-songwriter John Lydon (pictured), aka Johnny Rotten, will latch onto this wideranging documentary about the outspoken Sex Pistols and Public Image Ltd frontman.

For others, this deep-dive into the larger-than-life punk icon’s world could be a yawn-inducing affair. Featuring the Englishman divulging on his early life, career and choices, Rotten is a much more mellow figure than during his early days on stage and, to his credit, he’s not afraid to reveal his vulnerable side. Musicians such as Moby and Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea also chat about the singer’s influence in the music landscape.

AUSTRALIA’S FAVOURITE TREE ABC TV, Tuesday, 8.30pm

Paul West and Dr Ann Jones (both pictured) are on a unique mission to find Australia’s most treasured tree. As kids, we probably all had a favourite to climb or admire, but do we forget the magic of trees as we get older? West and Jones travel to each state and territory to uncover the history and makeup of some of our most remarkable native trees, speaking with scientists and First Nations people about everything from trees’ resilience to the roles they play in the natural world. In Tassie, it’s beguiling viewing as Paul becomes one of the first people to climb into the canopy of a Huon pine.

Locals supporting locals

By Erle Levey The Covid-19 pandemic, bushfires, flooding, drought - they are just some of the issues we are being faced with.

They have changed the way we live, and impacted all sorts of relationships as well as disrupting supply chains.

Little wonder that Regeneration has been chosen as the theme this year for Slow Food International - a world-wide movement supporting, good, clean and fair food production.

It will be the focus of the forthcoming Terra Madre Salone del Gusto, a bi-annual conference in Turin, Italy.

At the world conference in September, delegates from more than 160 countries will be discussing regeneration from various perspectives, favouring an eco-systemic approach to what food is today, and what it should be tomorrow.

The discussion will go beyond political boundaries and build on the thoughts and ideas of communities from those nations.

Taking part will be delegates from Slow Food Noosa, as part of the wider Australian and Oceania contingent.

A dinner at Noosa Springs Resort, held in conjunction with the Noosa Alive Festival, was to support the delegates to represent the region at Turin.

More than 100 attended the dinner, with more support shown from those on the waiting list.

Introducing the menu for the night Noosa Springs Resort chef Graham Waddell reflected on the Slow Food movement.

“A good souffle has a beginning, a middle and an end.’’

It prompted guests to contemplate not just the menu and the contribution local producers make, but the need for regeneration in our lives - our land, our rivers and oceans, the air itself.

In welcoming guests, Slow Food Noosa president Jason Lewis said it was very heartening to see the backing for local food production and regeneration.

“It was a celebration of food by those who support the Slow Food philosophy.

“Terra Madre Salone Del Gusto is an event where foodies, farmers and artisans from all over the world meet to share a common love of quality food and sustainable practices.

“This is a wonderful experience, and I am so thankful to have been part of the 2016 contingent.

“The experience opened my eyes to the uniquely similar issues of food labelling, fair processes in food production, access to transport and the value of connections between producers and consumers.

“The trip gave me the opportunity to experience a true food culture, a better way to eat and a better way to live.

“The support our local community gives is so appreciated by Slow Food.

“Seeing people come to these events makes the producers so heartened.’’

The fund-raising dinner has been a tradition for Slow Food Noosa for many years and

after the disruption of Covid-19 it is exciting to be able to offer the opportunity for delegates to attend the conference.

Di Seels runs the Snail Kids program that brings farmers into the classrooms and has connected it with the school curriculum.

Andy Coates is the co-owner of Amrita Meadery at Pomona, and the mead maker. His work will ensure this traditional skill will not disappear.

Scott Andrews is the owner of Tagigan Road Mushrooms at Wolvi. He specialises in heirloom varieties of mushrooms and assists with the Snail Kids program, teaching all things fungi.

Associate Lecturer in the School of Business and Creative Industries at University of the Sunshine Coast, Melissa Innes, will be attending Terre Madre and presenting about the value of knowledge management in Alternative Food Networks.

Through attending Terra Madre, Melissa hopes to observe not only how the practices of international delegates offer new insights to Australian slow food production, but specifically how the sharing of these practices is captured and disseminated by the Australian delegates in their regional networks back home.

“Capturing and sharing sometimes tacit knowledge of key network members is vital to the future success of networks managing increasing opportunities in terms of sustainable practices - something at the heart of Slow Food.’’

For Di Seels, she will be taking the Snail Kids program to share with the world.

As well as simulating the Noosa program she will be making a geographic presentation of where Noosa is globally - both in the coastal

tree that has lost one of its branches can grow it back; likewise, soil that has been impoverished by monocultures and chemical inputs can be regenerated thanks to farming practices that nourish the land, ensuring nutritious crops, diversified diets and dignified livelihoods.

“Freshwater and saltwater ecosystems can be regenerated with the traditional knowledge of the cultures who handed down their techniques for centuries.

“Cities can be regenerated by reducing the distance between food production and consumption.

“This distance, which is both physical and psychological, has widened over the last century, rendering the production of our food largely invisible to us.

“This gap can now be closed if we choose to focus again on where the food comes from and respect who produces it every day, promoting good between communities, as well as between humankind and the environment - clean and fair food for all.’’

In this respect, Slow Food promotes education activities to better understand and protect world biodiversity.

Promoted as an alternative to fast food, it strives to preserve traditional and regional cuisine and encourages farming of plants, seeds, and livestock characteristic of the local ecosystem.

And regeneration is something we should aspire to for ourselves, and the food we eat.

How we’ve produced food in the past, how our producers are embracing new and sustainable practices now, and how food network members will look to innovation and adaptable, flexible approaches to ensure food network success in the future.

areas and the hinterland.

“There will be two or three different presentations,’’ Di said.

“One will be purely for educators. Another for a mix of educators as well as the public.

“That will give them the lowdown on how our school term runs, and examples of what we do ... bring nature into the classroom as well as take the classroom into nature.

“At the same time I expect to be like a sea sponge - saturate myself with whatever is on offer, soak up the breadth of innovation out there.

“I am honoured the organisers feel so open minded to have accepted what I have to talk about.’’

Slow Food was started in Italy by Carlo Petrini and a group of activists in the 1980s, with the initial aim to defend regional traditions, good food and a slow pace of life.

Since then the movement has evolved to embrace a comprehensive approach to food that recognises the strong connections between paddock, plate, planet, people, politics and culture.

Today it represents a global movement involving thousands of projects and millions of people.

Slow Food grassroots projects and communities have been strong examples of resilience and strength, adapting to a world which is continuously changing.

At Terra Madre, they will show how they represent models to aspire to face the current climate, social and health crises and prevent future ones, Slow Food International president-elect Edie Mukiibi said.

Celebrating aged carers

By Abbey Cannan The unsung heroes taking care of Noosa’s most vulnerable community members are being celebrated following Aged Care Employment Day on Sunday 7 August.

Aged care staff have been thanked with a week of fun activities, food, and prizes as NoosaCare gives back to their team for all their hard work.

NoosaCare acting chief executive officer Jamie Oakley said it wasn’t every day that these unsung heroes got the acknowledgment they deserved.

“The work our team do is absolutely vital in supporting our elders to live a full life and age well in residential aged care,” he said.

“Let’s not forget the burden of the pandemic, floods, and rising costs in living.

“No matter the challenge that is put in front of them each and every day, our team comes to work at NoosaCare.

“They 100 per cent devote themselves to the safety, care and wellbeing of Noosa’s most vulnerable members of our community. And often they are doing this at the cost of their own personal situation, such as potential flooding.

They truly are super heroes.”

Jamie, who has been at NoosaCare for seven years, said Aged Care Employment Day was an important day to remind their team how much they matter.

“We want to say a big thank you to our nurses, personal care workers and allied health professionals, kitchen/laundry/cleaning/maintenance teams, diversional therapist team, gardeners, corporate staff, managers and volunteers,” he said.

NoosaCare staff have been thanked with a week of fun activities, food and prizes for Aged Care Employment Day. “We are so proud of all of our NoosaCare staff who work loyally and tirelessly in support of our residents.”

Diversional therapy supervisor Craig Barnes said he had never looked for personal gratitude as the job was the most rewarding part.

“I do feel that many staff benefit from a pat on the back, working in a very demanding industry that is not well remunerated,” Craig said.

“I’ve worked in this field for 12 years and have always had an infinity with people older than myself.

“My favourite part of the job is interacting with sincere people with amazing life stories and a never say no attitude.”

Bus host Pip Diver said she joined the aged care field because she loved spending time with the elderly.

“I wanted to make a difference,” Pip said.

“The best part of the job is listening to their life stories and making them happy.

“It is not an easy job and to be thanked and acknowledged for all the hard work you do is rewarding.”

Rate rise shock I am in full agreement with Alan Deering ( NT 29/07) about Council’s rate increase. I read/ heard the bit about a 5% increase then got my notice showing a 17.8% increase. Wow, someone was telling porkies and I only expect that from politicians. We have been sitting here minding our own business for over 20 years and now Council determines we have suddenly become rich and need to pay more for using the same unchanged services that we used last week. I am comforted though that Council “works extremely hard “ to contain increases? (Thank goodness for that). I have yet to hear about what cost savings and productivity gains have been made throughout their bureaucracy but won’t hold my breath on that.

On the bright side I may soon be able to claim for Council assistance on Affordable Housing.

Previous councils had their Quixotic projects but it seems we are now in a more progressive but expensive era.

Power to thinkers Why the vitriolic vehemence against those who think about and question the expert opinions surrounding climate change. I am so pleased that burning at the stake is no longer in vogue.

I have spent a professional lifetime interacting with “experts”. Experts given the exact same set of facts reliant upon the exact same scientific and technical data who come to the exact opposite opinion.

In that lifetime I have observed the most esteemed and respected legal minds, a bench of judges, accredited experts in the field of law, given the same history of decisions in relation to the same piece of legislation each interpret that legislation entirely differently and each come up with the same or a completely opposite opinion as to its application with an extremely different and at times devastating result those opinions will have on those affected

by that opinion, only to have a more esteemed set of judges reverse their opinions for entirely different reasons.

Recently, the medication for depression, the health of the Barrier Reef, the cause of stomach ulcers, every day refutation of an existing opinion of an expert by another expert, to our benefit.

Lives lost, reputations tarnished, employment terminated and subjected to vitriolic attacks, notwithstanding, the thinkers, the questioners have spearheaded change, questioned what was thought to be scientifically inviolate and made a better world by doing so.

Electric shock for body corporates Zero Emissions Noosa (ZEN) Inc has issued a warning to body corporate committees and owners within embedded networks to be aware of certain business practices related to their electricity supply.

“ZEN Inc has become aware that a number of body corporate committees with embedded networks are being asked to sign new electricity price increase contracts at very short notice,” ZEN Inc spokesperson Vivien Griffin said.

“We are urging body corporate committees in this situation to contact their supplier immediately and seek a review.

“The contract terms of one particular Embedded Network Operator (ENO) and retailer seem to allow the company to increase the rate, even where an energy rate had been set for a particular term.

“As advised to ZEN Inc, these strata properties are being given very short notice of increases of 10-15 cents per kilowatt hour (an increase of up to 150 per cent) which will involve many thousands of dollars over a year.

“These rates are higher than the Default Market Offer (DMO) set by the Australian Energy Regulator each year intended to protect small customers from excessive retail rates.

Retailers’ default rates, known as standing offers, should be below the DMO.” Ms Griffin continued: “We also believe the company is offering contracts which charge

the increased high rates, but only bill rates which are below the DMO. “Then, at the end of the 12-month period, the difference between the billed amount and the owed amount (the deferred amount) is calculated. The company offers to ‘work with the community’ to recover the deferred amount plus up to 10 per cent interest not appearing in the proposal.”

ZEN Inc is urging body corporate committees or owners who find themselves in this situation to immediately: 1. Advise your body corporate committee and body corporate manager of the price increase notification.

2. Contact your ENO/Retailer to ask what other, lower rates are available to owners and the BC. 3. If no rates are offered lower than the DMO, decline the increased rates and ask to go onto the ENO/Retailer’s standing offer.

4. If no standing offer is made available, seek resolution of your complaint through the Energy and Water Ombudsman Queensland (EWOQ).

5. At the same time, commence the process of calling for alternative supply charge/energy usage retailers.

“The obvious first action to take is to seek to resolve your concerns with your ENO,” Ms Grififn said.

“If that is not productive, we urge affected

body corporate committees to call EWOQ on 1800 662 837 but also to submit a complaint in writing.

“Our discussions with the EWOQ have revealed that if it receives an increase in complaints about particular providers, it will notify the Australian Energy Regulator (AER).”

ZEN Inc will be alerting local MP Sandy Bolton and industry bodies of the need for government intervention in this specific area.

Ms Griffin said the Victorian Government was already moving on regulatory reform in the embedded network residential sector, where it has stated, “The panel found that the residential electricity embedded network market in Victoria is not working in the best interests of customers and that intervention is required to ensure better consumer outcomes while supporting renewable energy uptake”.

As a not-for-profit, community organisation, with a goal to reach net zero emissions by 2026, ZEN Inc advises all residents and business, whether in an embedded network or not, to investigate the economic (and environmental) returns of installing solar, particularly when compared to these price hikes.

Generating your own electricity can provide protection against the volatile energy market – not just this year, but with a payback and protection over 15-20 years or more.

Mayor Clare Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart

Focus on capital works As we steam through the year, suffice to say, a large focus of Council is the delivery of capital works projects, grass roots spending at its best.

Even though our flood events in February and again in May have impacted four major projects along with 130 Council assets and Council, like all other businesses, has felt the pressures of reduced availability of labour, equipment and a ‘hot’ construction industry, we continue to deliver.

Our road reseal programme, budgeted at $5.3 million but reaching only $5 million is now complete and roads resurfaced include those in Tewantin, Cooran, Tinbeerwah, Cooroibah, Noosaville, Kin Kin, Noosa Heads, Pinbarren and Pomona. Along with our reseal programme we have a whopping 25 multiyear projects in various stages of completion which include, but are not limited to, Wahpunga Lane Bridge renewal, Cooroy Belli Creek Road Bridge renewal, Noosa Parade Corridor upgrade, Tewantin Bypass Stage 1, Noosa Hinterland Trail 5 Upgrade, Project Avenue Stormwater upgrade, Sunshine Beach Noosa Aquatic Centre 25 metre pool shade structure and Memorial Avenue and Doonella Street

Roundabout Upgrade.

Our maintenance grading program is also rolling out across the shire.

In August our grading team will be out and about on gravel roads in Black Mountain, Federal, Cooran and Pinbarren with maintenance being carried out on sections requiring grading treatment to repair potholes, corrugations and to improve drainage.

The works advance our road network for all users and we are grateful for your patience while these important works are being carried out.

A big feature of our capital works programme has been the Tewantin Bypass, and although completion is expected to be in October 2022, we are looking to do the tie-in of the roads over the next month. As this occurs, the traffic will then be able to use the roundabout and the workers will move to the surrounding areas to finish them off.

We have also ensured that we have funding in this year’s Council budget to reseal Beckmans Road at our expense and, following this, we will be working with Transport and Main

Roads (state government) to obtain funding to do the next stage of the bypass - the roundabout at the Eumundi Noosa Road end.

This month too, sees the launch of Council’s new library kiosks. The first of two library book-vending kiosks opens this week with the Peregian Beach BookShelf kiosk having more than 200 items available for borrowing. A second library BookShelf kiosk will be set up and running at Pomona in the next few months.

With the installation of the library kiosks, we aim to provide easier and improved access to library items for our community. The Peregian Kiosk is at Peregian Beach Community House, 5-7 Rufous Street, Peregian Beach in the new building behind the Peregian Digital Hub. Speaking of the Digital Hub, Carfax Commercial Constructions will carry out the $2 million building expansion of Peregian Digital Hub. The project includes an expansion into the existing community centre building at Peregian Beach which will also provide a base for our world leading Firetech program as it begins it series of bushfire resilience technologies.

As we move from capital to community, I would like to thank so many of our residents who provided feedback on our draft housing strategy. We’ve received hundreds of responses as part of our consultation.

This draft strategy is aimed at creating more social and affordable housing to address Noosa’s worsening crisis. Solving the issue requires investment from all levels of government, but Council can take steps to develop local solutions and the final strategy will give Council a clear plan to help ‘keep Noosa home’ for residents who already live here while protecting the things we all love such as the character, look and feel of our towns and villages and our design principles.

Finally, don’t forget there is still time to nominate a Noosa business in this year’s Sunshine Coast Business Awards. Council is pleased to sponsor the awards programme this year and it is a great opportunity to celebrate Noosa’s local businesses. Applications close on 29 August 2022 so please visit the website sunshinecoastbusinessawards.com.au and have your say.

Until next month, stay safe, Clare.

Council can help solve housing crisis with rates relief The supply of affordable and social housing is not just local, it’s a nation-wide, indeed worldwide problem.

Noosa has long been a place where development, density and urban sprawl were held in check.

That’s what makes us attractive now to residents, investors and tourists.

Solving the social and affordable housing crises is not a matter of building a few extra houses right now. We need systemic change that will produce results.

Holiday areas such as Sunshine Coast, Byron, Cairns, and many others, also have housing problems, and the solutions at a local government level are limited. However, there are levers that could be pulled to boost affordable rental housing supply relatively quickly.

Since Noosa has around 5000 empty hous-

es, from this large pool of property owners could be found those who could be encouraged to bring their dwellings onto the property market via a financial incentive.

Rates subsidies We already have a rates differential for shortterm accommodation, so rates relief for home-owners who sign up to moving their unoccupied houses to the rental pool, or who voluntarily change their homes from STA to permanent rentals, is a workable and economic solution.

For, say, a modest sum of $1.6m annually, council could give $4000 rate relief to 400 property owners who could be incentivised to let their properties for long-term accommodation. This subsidy would either be for new rentals, or for changing over from STA to regular renting.

A subsidy to the tune of $3000 per property would see this council investment release 533 properties to the long-term rental market. The rate subsidy could last as long as the home is in the long-term rental pool.

If only five per cent of property owners [of the 5000 empty houses] took up the offer, that would release 250 homes for long-term accommodation.

The winners would be homeowners sick of the vagaries of STA rentals, registered and approved resort owners who have lost trade to the STA phenomenon, and residents in our suburbs who have witnessed their amenity decline along with the social fabric of their oncevibrant streets.

We forget that the volunteers, workers, retirees and all the other diverse inhabitants of a dynamic shire need somewhere affordable to

live. We would be on the path to recovering our community, one that is being fractured and distorted.

On the one hand we’re bemoaning a housing shortage, on the other we’re contributing to it by subsidising increased visitation to a destination that is bursting at the seams. While Destination Byron is not funded by any level of government, Noosa subsidises its tourism industry association to the tune of $2.6m annually. We’re encouraging yet more marketing for a destination that arguably doesn’t need it.

We are, in effect, compounding the housing crisis.

Making sure we have a reasonable quota of affordable and social housing will help alleviate homelessness and move us toward affordable housing solutions. It will also create a resident-friendly shire.

O’Brien congratulates local young sporting champions Federal Wide Bay MP Llew O’Brien has congratulated local sports stars who will receive grants to help them participate in state and national competitions.

The young sportsmen and women will each receive a grant of between $500 to $750 through the Australian Government’s Local Sporting Champions and Local Para Champions programs, which supports participants aged 12 to 24 to help meet the costs of participating in sporting events, including travel, equipment, uniforms and accommodation.

With the help of the grants, Alana Castle of Noosaville will be heading to the Australian Youth and U15 National Championships for weightlifting while Kaiden Smales of Noosa Heads will be on his way to the Australian Surf Championships.

“I congratulate these young athletes on their success in the latest round of the Local Sporting Champions and the Local Para Champions program,” Mr O’Brien said.

“Wide Bay has a strong track record in producing skilled and successful sport champi-

ons, and these sporting champions deserve to be congratulated and encouraged on their sporting journey.

“The cost of representing Wide Bay at state or national titles can be quite high, especially when long-distance travel and accommodation is required, so this funding will help to ease that pressure on local families, and help our young athletes achieve their sporting goals.

“There were many applications for the Local Sporting Champions Program and only limited grants are available, but I am really impressed by the depth of talent, the level of commitment, and the ambition and pursuit of excellence that the applicants demonstrated.”

The Australian Sports Commission (ASC) is responsible for the management and coordination of the program, with grant recipients selected by a local panel. Applications for the grants can be made at any time, through the Australian Sports Commission’s website at ausport.gov.au/champions

Bookshelf kiosk opens The first of two library book-vending kiosks is now up and running in Noosa Shire.

More than 200 items are available for borrowing at the Peregian Beach BookShelf kiosk.

Borrowers can browse and make their selection via a touchscreen which guides them through the borrowing and returns process.

A second library BookShelf kiosk will be up and running at Pomona in the next few months.

Libraries and malleries manager Tracey King said Council’s aim was to extend library services beyond the Noosaville and Cooroy Library branches.

“The kiosks are part of our new outreach/ community-based library service to provide easier and improved access to library items,” she said.

“Library members can view the items available to borrow through the kiosk’s cabinet door, swipe their membership card to open the door, take the items they want and the door automatically closes.

“The system works in reverse when items are returned, and the kiosk is re-stocked as

Crafters quilt for kindness Noosa Arts and Crafts members are well known for their talent and creativity in their chosen art or craft, but they have now put their considerable skills into kindness.

The quilting and knitting group members formed their own kindness collective by pooling their expertise and get busy sewing and knitting for others in need and now have a large amount of quality, handcrafted and practical items to send to those in the Lismore community who need a helping hand after losing their homes.

They have sewn many quilts and knitted socks, beanies, throws and so much more. There are even a few trauma teddies added for the children.

President Gabi Dick said: “ Our members have really worked hard on amassing this cornucopia of essential homewares and knitwear to send to Lismore.

They have put their own creations on hold to focus on helping others - we are all so proud and grateful to them”.

These donations are going to a community hub called the Wardell Community Organised Resilience Effort (CORE) Hub. For all the information on Noosa Arts & crafts - noosaartsandcrafts.org.au

books are borrowed and returned to the cabinet.”

The kiosk is located in the foyer at the new Peregian Beach Community House and is open Monday to Wednesday, and Friday 9am to 2pm.

The Pomona BookShelf, when it opens, will be located inside the Pomona Community House.

Artwork from local First Nations artist and author/illustrator Gregg Dreise is featured as part of the kiosk design.

“Gregg has written and illustrated a series of children’s books and his artwork on our library kiosks builds upon the artwork he created for our children’s membership cards. We are thrilled to be able to showcase his work on the new BookShelf kiosks.”

The new library kiosk service is in addition to the weekly mobile library service. The new mobile library vehicle is currently being built, with the plan to be on the road in early 2023.

Try the new BookShelf kiosk at Peregian Beach Community House, 5-7 Rufous St, Peregian Beach – located in the new building behind the Peregian Digital Hub.

Golinski’s bacon tasties The Sunshine State’s favourite foodie Matt Golinski is bringing home the bacon this year.

Mr Golinski is joining forces with Spanish culinary king Miguel Maestre for the 2022 Kingaroy BaconFest, which is back from 19-21 August after a lengthy Covid hiatus.

“It’s great to be back on the food circuit again,” Mr Golinski said, from his home on the Sunshine Coast where he works as a consultant executive chef at Peppers Noosa Resort.

“I can’t wait to be a part of this one, which is guaranteed to have the South Burnett region sizzling.”

Golinski and Network Ten cooking guru Maestre are ambassadors for the first time.

They’ll host cooking demonstrations and do their bit to celebrate local produce and promote swine-inspired fare.

“Candied bacon, bacon jam, bacon rocky road, and bacon donut with maple glaze all sound incredible and you’ll be able to try them next month,” added Mr Golinski.

With BaconFest just around the corner, Golinski is ‘bacon us hungry’ with one of his favourite pork-inspired recipes – banana pikelets with ricotta cheese and maple bacon.

“Bacon is the best isn’t it? And when paired with the right ingredients it makes for a taste explosion,” said Mr Golinski who will go the whole hog and share his favourite bacon recipes and cooking techniques at this year’s event.

Queensland produces more than 20 per cent of Australia’s pork and 95 per cent of it is produced for the Australian market.

Kingaroy’s Swickers Bacon Factory is one of the South Burnett region’s largest employers, with as many as 850 staff on its book.

Swickers’ parent company SunPork Fresh Foods is the major partner of Kingaroy BaconFest, which kicks off on 19 August with a Wine

Interest high for art

By Jim Fagan Bidding is hotting up for the Katie Rose Cottage Hospice silent art auction.

Organiser and manager of the op shop at Tewantin, Tina Grigson, says public interest in the exhibits has been “very satisfying.”

More than 20 local artists from the Tinbeerwah Art Group and Noosa Arts and Crafts have pooled their talents to support the hospice with a silent art auction which opened last week for two weeks.

As well as being shown on the Katie Rose website, their 33 paintings, embroidery and a mosaic — all donated - are also on display at the hospice op shop.

The exhibits feature the forget-me-not flower which is the hospice logo.

Bidding closes this Saturday and Tina said, “I’m delighted these local works of art by professional and non-professional artists have caused such interest“.

Tragic year on the water Failure to wear a lifejacket is thought to have contributed to 70 per cent of deaths on Queensland waterways last year.

Transport and Main Roads Minister Mark Bailey said the figure was a key finding from Maritime Safety Queensland’s annual Marine Incidents Report 2021.

“Any death on our waters is one too many but it is especially tragic so many of the lives lost last year were people not wearing lifejackets,“ Mr Bailey said.

“A total of 13 deaths were reported on water last year, with failure to wear a lifejacket a contributing factor in nine of those.

“That’s nine people who had a primary means of survival available but for some reason did not wear it.

“It’s a stark reminder to boaties that it’s not enough to simply stow lifejackets onboard - you need to be wearing them in case you go overboard unexpectedly.“ The 13 lives lost in 2021 was four fewer than in 2020 but remained higher than the average for the previous 10 years (9.5).

Mr Bailey urged boaties to be aware of the fatal five.

“On the water, these include not keeping a proper lookout, failure to carry and use the appropriate safety equipment such as lifejackets, speeding, alcohol and drug use, and

In 2021, 508 vessels were involved in 380 reported incidents. Of these incidents, just over a quarter (100) were collisions between vessels.

There were also 48 groundings and 31 collisions with objects, including aids to navigation.

“Unfortunately, many Queensland boaties are failing to observe the safety basics leading to trouble and, in some cases, tragedy,” Mr Bailey said.

Mr Bailey said MSQ would redouble its efforts to educate boaties and enforce boating regulations.

“We’ll be cracking down on compliance through on water patrols right across the state’s coastline,“ he said.

“Increasingly, they will be using new boats capable of making intercepts at high speed if necessary.

“The Maritime Enforcement team has already completed more than 6000 intercepts and compliance checks since its inception in 2019 and I look forward to this continuing for the safety of Queensland’s boaties.

“We want boaties to enjoy their time on the water but its important that everyone gets home safely too, so buckle up the lifejacket and avoid the fatal five.”

Fab fair at Good Shepherd Grey skies and sprinkling rain did not deter the many hundreds who celebrated the return of Good Shepherd Lutheran College’s Twilight Fair last Saturday.

There were rides, baby animals, an array of stalls, food carts, hand made goods and a variety of activities.

An amazing lineup of talent took to the stage with MCs Tim Lambert and Hannah Doyle and there was even a Bubbles Bar for the adults.

The college maintenance department did a great job transforming the college grounds into a fair ground while teachers and parents volunteered to run the stalls.

Shut up and say something Heather, formerly a nurse, took up swim coaching in 1980 and became the first female in South Australia to earn accreditation to coach at a national level.

She was a coach at the 2000 Pacific School Games – where teams from all states and territories, as well as more than 20 visiting nations, competed in what was a lead into the Sydney Olympics.

The book, which took Heather nearly a decade to write and review, chronicles her experiences as a swim coach in South Australia between 1980 and the early 2000s, and recalls the hundreds of outstanding young people she mentored.

She moved to Noosa in 2006 and was appointed head coach at the Noosa Aquatic Centre, where she remained for three years until she answered an advertisement for a position at Noosa Springs.

“I was looking for a new challenge,” Heather said.

“This is the job I wanted. I’m my own boss and I work with some amazing people.

“I coach people aged from two to 70. It’s very, very challenging and keeps me grounded.”

Heather can be found at the Noosa Springs pool most mornings from 6am to 9.30am, and in the afternoon from 3pm to 5pm. If you’re interested in buying a copy of her book, just ask her.

By Peter Owen It was in the town of Tailem Bend, 100km southeast of Adelaide, that Heather Klieve was confronted by the bikie gang.

What made it worse was that Heather, a swim coach based at Mt Gambier, 300km away, was driving a van packed with teenage swimmers on their way to a meet.

“Some of the kids made some questionable comments to the bikies while we were waiting at a petrol station,” Heather said.

“When we left, about 25 of them came after us, riding very close behind.”

Eventually, terrified but conscious of her duty of care to her charges, Heather stopped the van, got out, approached the leader of the bikies and demanded to know what they were doing.

“Well, missus,” the bearded, tattooed bikie replied, “we thought you might have needed some help keeping those kids quiet for a while.”

With that he gave her a smile, touched his helmet and the gang disappeared down the highway.

That story, and a hundred others, are contained in a book, curiously titled Shut Up And Say Something, written by Heather Klieve, a swim coach at Noosa Springs Golf and Spa Resort for the past dozen years.

Heather Klieve at Noosa Springs pool.

Explaining the title, Heather said: “When you’re confronted with something you should firstly shut up and say nothing – just listen

carefully and consider. Then, when you do say something, say it confidently and with purpose.”

Hook, Line and Sinker Tackle World Noosa

Conditions determine destination for fishing success Weyba creek has seen better quality fish, and these are best targeted on a 3 inch Paddle tail plastic or a shrimp pattern such as the new Berkley Fan Tail shrimp in 2 or 3 inch. The waters still have a bit of colour from the last drop of rain, so baits and lures have to be presented in the best possible way. The MMD splash prawns are working well for whiting and big eye trevally. Lower down in the water column small micro jigs work well for getting the bite when the fish are sitting on the bottom.

The Majorcraft jig para prove to be the most consistent producers. Don’t forget if you are missing out on fish hitting your lures, try the small Shinto assist hooks running off the back of your lure instead of the stock treble hook.

This helps greatly when the fish are just missing the hook up. If headed upriver the ski run is worth sounding around as trevally and jewies are often found schooling up here. Live baits work well as do soft vibes and 4-inch paddle tail soft plastics. Adding scent really helps too as does tying a loop knot to help free up the lures action. Be sure to find out or ask how you tie one as picky fish will spot a poorly presented lure. Further upstream the mouth of Cooroibah and the channel that is the start of the stretch known simply as between the lakes holds good flathead this time of year. The sand flats on either side can also hold good whiting too so flick small surface lures onto the flats and work them off into deeper water.

Freshwater continues to be inconsistent in the local dams as the constant rainfall hasn’t allowed the impoundments time to settle.

Recently we saw major fish loses at Lake McDonald as fish were seen tumbling over the flooded wall and Borumba as well has seen major fish kills as it seems to have rolled. The only upside of these losses is the downstream tributaries will now have bass in their systems to breed as their natural response is to want to get downstream and breed is only halted by these walls.

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

With the conditions a little sloppy last week, it was mainly the larger craft that headed out.

North reef was popular for the charters, and they came home with a mixed bag of cobia, lipper and some sizable jewfish. Mixed baits dropped down on paternoster rigs proving the popular choice with squid, mullet and pilchard baits the popular choice. Live bait works very well here when dropped down on a snelled rig so be sure to stop off, drop a sabiki jig and load up on livies before going wide.

In closer Sunshine Reef has sizable coral trout, lippers, tuskies and a few longtail tuna still swimming around. This is a great place to drop a pilchard floater as the cobia and tuna are happy to swim about mid water. Be sure to use a long length of 30-40lb mono leader if running braid so you have a better presentation. Anyone who has a baitrunner style of reel would do well to use it here as these reels are perfect for floating baits in a burley trail.

With burley in mind be sure to start a steady trail when on anchor. With the full moon due this coming week expect currents and tides to become stronger so you will have to work your efforts around the tide changes. A great berley mash up of some pellets, oil, old fish frames and a few handfuls of sand to help bind it all together. Alternatively try using a small burley pot and freezing your mix to make it last longer. Don’t forget the Snapper and Peal Perch closure still exists till 15 August.

Surf fishing will also ramp up in the lead up to the full moon as the weather conditions begin to improve, with some good reports of tailor having been landed around the mouth of the Noosa river and a few gutters along Teewah Beach. These fish are taking whole and cut pilchard baits and mullet on strip bait rigs which have a length of wire attached to prevent the inevitable bite off. During the daytime bream, whiting, dart and flathead are around with a few big flathead landed and released as we approach their breeding season. Its always a great thing to do your bit to help preserve fish stocks so don’t forget to take a snap for memories sake.

The Noosa River is going through a quieter phase but the trevally and queenfish seem to be on the move throughout the lower reaches.

Flathead continue to be the stand out species but you will have to sort your way through the smaller fish to find the legal ones.

Noosa answers challenge Noosa, seeking an unprecedented four A grade pennant titles in a row, roared into this year’s semi-finals after smashing Maroochy River 5-2 in the final fixture match on Sunday.

The in-form Noosa lads will play Maroochy River again on Sunday, but so emphatic was their win they will be heavily favoured to again beat Maroochy River, despite the semi-final being played at their Bli Bli circuit.

That will likely set Noosa up for another final against Headland, the team Noosa has beaten for pennant honours in the past two seasons. Headland completed an unbeaten season by downing Peregian 4-3 on Sunday.

Noosa’s win was secured because of the consistency and strength of its team from top to bottom. At the top of the list, George Giblett took care of Maroochy River’s dangerous Jarrod Whittal 1up, while Ryan Mulder (6&4), Alex Officer (3&2), young Bronson White (3&1) and Grant Baker (2&1) all scored good wins.

Noosa’s B grade pennant team set up a semi-final clash with Cooroy after beating Gympie 4½-2½ on Sunday, Michael Nassereddin starring with an emphatic 6&4 win over Gympie’s Darren Burns.

Cooroy, however, will be hard to beat after walloping Noosa Springs 5-2, Jason Norris (5&3) and Mark Arundel (7&6) scoring big wins down the list.

Sunday’s semi-finals will be played at Maroochy River with the action beginning at 7am.

In junior pennants, defending Division 1 champion Noosa Springs earned a place in the final by defeating cross-town rivals Noosa 3-1 in an absorbing contest.

No 1 player Sunday Moore, who has led her team admirably throughout the season, went down 4&3 to Maddison Kelly, but her sister Coco (2 up), Alex Bray (2 up) and Jasmine Lena (2&1) won their matches to complete an unbeaten run for Noosa Springs.

The three girls, all members of last year’s champion team, and Alex will take on Maroochy River 2 in the final – just as they did last year. Maroochy River 2 won a finals berth by beating Maroochy River 1 2½-1½.

In Division 2, Noosa played its way into the final by drawing with Maroochy River 4, before Noosa’s Amy Coates beat Maroochy River’s Rhys Cusack on the first playoff hole with a net birdie. They will now take on Mt Coolum for the title.

The finals will be played at Headland on August 21.

Check out all the weekend results on www. sunshinecoastgolf.org.

Ted retired too late The only thing Ted Clark regrets about retiring to Noosa is that he didn’t do it 10 years earlier.

The former Victorian plumber and commercial cleaner moved north a couple of years ago, joined Noosa Golf Club, and quickly proceeded to make up for lost time on the golf course.

He even bought himself a retirement present – a new set of Ping i525 irons, a Calloway Rogue ST driver and a couple of Titleist TS2 fairway woods.

Armed with a bag full of impressive gear, Ted’s game rapidly improved, assisted by advice from club pros Anthony Edwards and Shane Healey, and tips he picked up from watching YouTube videos.

A year ago he won the Noosa Vets C grade net and gross championships and Ted, in his own words, became a golf tragic.

“My wife says I spend too much time playing golf, but I enjoy it so much,” he said.

Ted’s long left C grade ranks, and these days his name regularly features on the A grade leader boards in Vets competition.

Indeed, last week he won the A grade trophy, scoring 43 points despite two double bogeys. The performance saw his handicap trimmed by two strokes, but Ted couldn’t be happier.

“I’m excited to be playing so consistently,” he said.

So, when playing golf, it’s essential that your mind is clear of any thoughts other than the shot at hand.

Golfers can’t afford to focus on what’s happening around them or, even worse, worry about what trouble they may possibly find.

Make sure you always focus on the positives rather than the negatives.

Where do you want the ball to finish, rather than where you don’t want it to finish?

The best way to achieve this is positive self-talk and imaging. Keep telling yourself exactly how you’re going to hit the ball to your target and, of course, always finish with a positive outcome and picture in your mind prior to playing your shot.

Simple thoughts make golf simple.

Good golfing

Ted Clark, who’s climbed from C grade to become an A grade winner in just a year.

“I seem to be getting everything together.”

Ted played only social golf while he was living and working in Victoria, and relishes the chance to devote more time to the game in retirement.

He plays Vets on Wednesdays, seldom misses the members’ competition on Saturdays, and practices whenever he can.

“I love life at Noosa,” he said. “I only wish we’d moved here eight or 10 years ago.”

Robyn contends in US title Robyn Puckett, the former Dalby girl who now divides her time between California and Noosa, did Australia proud last week when she reached the playoffs of the US Senior Women’s Amateur at Anchorage golf course in Alaska.

Robyn, twice a winner of the Australian Women’s Senior Amateur and runner-up in the 2017 event when it was held at Maroochy River, shot rounds of 76 and 78 in the stroke play section to be tied 12th and qualified for the round of 64.

That, alas, was as far as it went for Robyn, who lives in California for much of the year, but always spends a few months at Noosa, where she and her American husband Bernard become part-time members of Noosa Springs.

She was knocked out by American Lynn Thompson, who later went all the way to the quarter-finals. The only other Australian in the event – Victorian Sue Wooster – reached the final, only to lose to Canadian Shelly Stouffer 4&3.

Robyn has had an impressive amateur golf career, representing Australia in the World Cup. She played professionally on the LPGA Tour in the US, choosing to remain in that country after her career came to a close.

Spring golf classic ends at Noosa Springs Following the sell-out Sunshine Coast Winter Classic, which attracted golfers from throughout Australia, organisers are busily processing applications for this year’s Spring Classic, to be played in October.

The 72-hole stableford event, graded and open to men and women, will be played at four of the Sunshine Coast’s finest courses, culminating in the final round at Noosa Springs on Friday, October 14.

Earlier rounds will be played at Maroochy River, Peregian and Twin Waters with play beginning on Monday, October 10. The Wednesday will be a rest day, providing visitors with an opportunity to explore our region.

The $695 entry fee includes four days of golf in electric carts, daily lunches, a welcome function, gift pack, optional practice rounds at reduced rates, and generous prizes for daily and overall winners.

Thundering into the season

By Randall Woodley Thunder senior training started last Thursday night with a very good roll up of past and new players. Training will continue for the time being on Thursday afternoons from 5.15pm with Ben Laughlin in charge.

Experienced, mature, new and confident junior cricketers are all welcome to join in this pre-season training. From Tuesday 24 August, training will also be held weekly on Tuesday afternoons. The club is always looking to increase the number of players and registrations are now open.

To register visit tewantinnoosacricket.com. au/index.../play-cricket The team which won the First-Grade premiership last season and went through the season undefeated is looking strong again this year.

Grade 2 was very unlucky to miss out on the finals and will be a better team this season with the addition of some new players. Grades 4 and 6 may change their grades but expectations are high for all the lower grades teams.

Women’s cricket Calling all mums, daughters, grandmas and aunties… you are invited to come to the cricket club at Read Park on Friday 19 August (4-5.30pm) to find more about this exciting initiative.

Along with Cricket Australia and Queensland Cricket, the club is dedicated to increasing women’s and girls’ participation in cricket.

And this is where it all starts.

This Come and Try event is an opportunity to see what women’s and girls’ cricket on the Sunshine Coast looks like. Women’s cricket gives you the opportunity to either get serious and compete… or to just meet up regularly with a fun and social group of cricketing women and girls.

The season of cricket caters for players of all ages… teenagers to old-agers.

For the younger girls who would love to get into cricket, we have the Junior Blaster and Master Blaster programs and also the club’s junior competition which caters for girls and boys mixed teams.

For more details on women’s and girls’

Thunders at Read Park. vricket, come along to the Come and Try Day. For even more info on cricket for the younger girls have a look at the Master Blasters and Junior Handbook on the Play Cricket page on our website.

Facilities and ground update Work is continuing on the new terraced area at the front of the clubhouse at Read Park. It has been expanded from its original design and is looking great. New lighting has been installed

in the area as well as extra security lighting around the clubhouse.

The Dale Officer Oval sight screens will arrive in the next couple of weeks and should be in place before the season starts.

The new clubhouse and facilities at the McKinnon Drive Complex are still a way off so the Noosa Shire Council is erecting some temporary sheds that will be used as change rooms. There will also be temporary toilets

adjacent to the netball clubhouse dressing rooms.

Junior winter cricket The Tewantin-Noosa U13 team finished on top of the ladder in the Winter T20 competition and will be hosting their grand final in the coming weeks. The Under 17 finished third and the Under 15 finished unplaced. It was great to see all those juniors taking the opportunity to play cricket in the offseason.

“The Noosa Triathlon Festival Events offer a great mix of events which appeal to a wide range of people, as well as providing a great way for those new to the sport to get involved,” he said.

“Our local community is incredibly important to the continued success of the Noosa Triathlon and we believe this year’s Festival Events provide a great way for everyone to be involved.

“It was great to be able to bring the Festival Events back last year and we look forward to having even more people take part in 2022,” he said.

Rugby U15s on path to New Zealand For 15 years, Noosa Dolphins Rugby Club has organised a rite of passage rugby tour to New Zealand for their U15 rugby team.

The tour offers passionate young rugby players the opportunity to play a variety of rugby teams in New Zealand, enriching their experience of rugby. The tour also provides the team the opportunity to travel and experience a new country with their team mates.

For the vast majority of players, it is their first overseas trip without their families.

Touring creates lifetime bonds. Their experiences form memories and stories that are retold throughout their senior rugby years – sometimes the stories growing more rapidly than the boys.

The U15s travel during the June/July school holidays to play against a variety of New Zealand teams and are also able to do some sightseeing along the way. The annual junior tour has become an essential part of the Dolphins community culture.

The U14s are currently fundraising towards their tour costs of more than $65,000.

Each family contributes to the cost of their player to travel to New Zealand but they also contribute their valuable time and donations of prizes for our raffles.

They have just launched our Major Raffle that will raise much needed funds to purchase our travelling and playing kit with some great prizes to win, each prize is valued over $1000.

U16s evading the attack.

Tigers fired up for finals

By Julian Pitts Finals are almost upon us and in fact for our senior men and colts teams this Saturday’s clash with Wilston Grange starts their finals campaigns early.

With the colts needing two from two to progress and the seniors just one win, the last home game at Rococo oval for 2022 is just mouthwatering.

Earlier in the year, the Rococo Noosa seniors played out a classic and brutal Good Friday clash against the Gorillas, getting over the line in a thriller.

Grange come off a thumping win over Surfer’s Paradise while the Tigers had a bye due to having a game in lieu.

It really is an elimination final come three weeks early.

The Noosa outfit under the tutelage of experienced coach Chris Rourke has been in really solid form over the past month leading into this clash. Thumping wins over Surfers and Mt Gravatt, a classical tie against old girl Maroochydore and a one goal loss to Palmy on the Gold Coast certainly have the Tigers primed and ready to go venturing into August and September.

Focal point forward Aaron Wilson has been in wonderful form converting opportunities on the back of a great work rate and the dominance of his onballers further up the field.

Connor McDonald has had a superb season, let alone last month, as the running ruckman/ruck rover, continues to find the footy and send the ball forward.

Skipper Aaron Laskey has once again been

U16s quick avoidance. a model of consistency constantly racking up big possession games and showing a physical presence that only he can do. Tommy Templeton has been a bull in the middle of the ground all year and I’m sure the Tigers will be looking for a big month ahead from the ex-VFL player.

Then there’s a class brigade who, on their day, take the game away from opposition.

Fitzpatrick, Baulch, Stack and Johnson can rip sides apart with their skill and cleverness especially forward of centre. Josh Wallis has been

U16s jump for the ball. a star for the Tigers and, while skilful, adds grunt to an already imposing forward line. Will O’Dwyer is another in terrific form leading into such a big clash.

Lachy Flagg has been just superb all year in the last line of defence and has been well supported by Ben Guthrie and I’m sure the multitalented Tiley Buntain when it may be his turn to help out.

Just a cracking game of QAFL footy coming up at Weyba Rd, a big president’s lunch

and mega auction day (so many great auction items, see Noosa tigers Facebook for details) with it also being past players’ day over at the BOQ superbox from 1pm. What a day coming up.

We host junior finals on Sunday which should be a great day also do all the best to all those who represent the Noosa Tigers this weekend.

See you at the footy.

No second chances for Dolphins in finals

Noosa’s Corey Deitrich

The Ray White Noosa Dolphins head into the semi finals facing knock out each match having finished fourth of the A grade ladder.

Coming off the back of a strong 40-0 victory over Caboolture last weekend, the Dolphins A grade men’s side face off against third-placed Caloundra on Sunday with no second chances.

After suffering defeat at the hands of Caloundra in round one, the Dolphins have taken the points in rounds two and three and have been buoyed by those results.

The young Noosa side has developed well after a poor start to the season, having beaten two of the three sides ahead of them on the table in the round games.

“They have come so far this season and have learned and developed so much as a group,“ said coach Matt Buckland.

“I’m so excited to see what they can do with their backs to the wall this weekend. I know they can perform.“

The Dolphins women’s continued their strong performance having secured second place on the table following their 31-0 victory over Brothers last weekend.

Up against the undefeated Nambour side on Saturday in the major semi-final, the Phinettes have the chance to go straight through to the grand final with a win.

Having been decimated with injuries in the latter part of the regular home and away season, the girls have bonded into a determined and focused side, but the real challenge ahead is maintaining the momentum and discipline in the face of the high flying Frogettes.

The knockout semi final for the Reserves sees them in a rematch with last weekend’s opposition Caboolture. With low numbers due to injury and unavailability, the Dolphins went down 31-26 against the Snakes, finishing the match with only 13 players following further injuries during the match.

“Training this week is about regrouping and trying to get fit players available,“ coach Mark Winder said.

“Last weekend showed that to take on such a big and physical side, we need all hands-on deck. There are no second chances now.“ Winder was proud of the players that did take the field and the effort they displayed to come so close, particularly Flynn Enright, the ever-green Dean Berkhout and Reon Fortington.

This weekend’s matches: Saturday at Maroochydore Noosa Colts v Maroochydore 12.30pm.

Saturday at University, Dolphins Women v Nambour 12.30pm.

Sunday at Caloundra, A Grade v Caloundra 3.30pm.

Reserve Grade v Caboolture 2pm.

Talking Sport Ron Lane

No football boots needed It was Wednesday 3 August at 7am, a time that will live forever in the memory of Cooroy amateur boxing coach Mark Evans.

He was about to achieve what every amateur sporting coach dreams of, nation-wide exposure on television Channel 7, promoting the sport that has become his life - amateur boxing.

For this sport, (no football boots required), this type of promotion is rare.

“My god, the phone has not stopped ringing, the response to the interview has been fantastic. We cannot thank Channel 7 enough.”

For Evans, the owner and head coach of Impact Boxing and Fitness Centre, Cooroy, originally known as the Impact Boxing Academy, this has indeed been a big step forward.

“For our coaches, we have always found it hard to grab media attention. However, at last the sport is starting to get back to where it was years ago,” he said.

Mark’s journey into the world of amateur boxing started when, as a young boy, he learning to box in the backyard of one of his mates.

Little did he realise that these sparring sessions would take him to where he stands today - owner coach of an ultra-modern boxing and fitness club, president of Boxing Queensland and a well-established boxing coach of national reputation.

In his younger days he was to spend years boxing as an amateur and in the study and training of martial arts. ‘’But then I did two things. I cut back on fighting, helped train the local lads and invested in a block of land in Cooroy. It was in 2005 the idea of having my own gym started to become a reality.

“In choosing a name for the gym, I wanted to say something that would make an impact on the community.” This is how the name Impact Boxing Academy came into being.

His name and reputation as a coach soon caused the boxing fraternity to take note. This was to result in members from Gympie, Imbil, Tewantin, Bribie Island and Caboolture joining the team.

After many years and much success, Mark realised that it had caused a problem.

The small gym that he had built amongst the trees at the back of his home on Black Mountain Rd, Cooroy was too small to cater for the fast-growing membership, thus the now ultramodern Impact Boxing and Fitness Centre based in Taylor Court, Cooroy came into being.

His success while training from the backyard gym was outstanding, his tournament results are worthy of note. Members have represented their country in such tournaments as the World Titles (Russia and India), Youth and Commonwealth Games (Bahamas and Gold Coast) and Celtic Cup (Ireland). During this time, they had a medal tally of 10 gold, 1 silver and 2 bronze medals.

The number of state and national titles are many. Ella Boot, World and Youth Commonwealth Games medallist, Taylor Robinson, Commonwealth Games and Indonesian medallist and the Cameron-Hands brothers, Sam and Ben, winners of both National and Golden Glove Titles. And recently Ange Harris represented her country in the Women’s World Titles in Turkey.

Now, once again, a team member Paige Robinson, has reached the top by winning the 60kg division National Title. This has also earned her a place in the Australian team to contest the World Titles in Spain.

Away from competition, gym life has seen the formation of the Pee Wee group (the under 12s) who are Mark’s pride and joy, 30-strong and attendance is always good. This also tends to draw attention to coach Evans and his staff’s attitude to the work done outside the gym in various schools and running programs for special needs children and disengaged youth.

His success as a coach has seen him receive high appointments, Australian head coach, Nikolay Polyakov Memorial Tourna44 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 12 August, 2022

However, in his own words: “One of my proudest achievements was to be appointed Boxing Australia’s, Queensland Futures Coach.”

By accepting this appointment, it drops the future of boxing Queensland, squarely in the hands of coach Mark Evans. Not only does he have the responsibility to identify talent and teach, but also form these junior athletes into squads where all aspects required to bring them to elite level will be taught Coach Evans has always acknowledged the support and help he has received from the people of Cooroy: from the days of building the backyard Impact gym, to present times.

But as always finance in amateur boxing remains a problem.

Yoshi Hasegawa Among amateur sports where no football boots required, the sport of Jiu Jitsu is not well known.

However, research tells us that in Australia, it’s rated as one of the fastest growing sports.

For proof of this we need look no further than 153 Cooyar St, Noosa Heads,the home of the Caza Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Club.

The owner and head coach of the Caza Club

Coach Mark Evans with his award-winning students. is Professor Yoshi Hasegawa 3rd Dan. Born in Tokyo Japan in 1978, Yoshi moved to California in 2003 to train in Brazilin Jiu-Jitsu under legendary teacher Ricardo Rey Diogo.

Then in 2009, to further his training and experience moved to Sao Paolo Brazil to train with Marco Barbosa. Then the following year he was awarded the black belt by Barbosa. Following this, in 2012 under a club sponsorship, he moved to Australia to teach under a franchise.

After teaching there for five years, Yoshi opened his own gym, Caza Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at Noosa Junction in February 2017. Under the coaching and training of Yoshi and his support group, the competition team has done well in just five and a half years.

However, this has not been Yoshi’s driving purpose. His main goal as a teacher and coach, is to spread awareness of the art to the new students from within Australis.

While the competitive types can certainly find a home amongst CAZA’s membership, the

door remains open to the hobbyist and casual participant of all ages.

As a result of Yoshi’s dedication and style of teaching, the reputation of the club has resulted in more gyms opening under the Caza banner. Today, Caza has a branch in Caloundra (Bells Creek) and an affiliate, Drop Bear Brazilin Jiu-Jitsu, now operating in Marburg (Ipswich). The three clubs all compete under the CAZA name.

There is a team vibe that has been fostered at CAZA gyms where everyone is made to feel not only welcome, but also a part of a broadening organisation.

The immediate and definite goal of Yoshi and the club is to encourage new members.

This will in turn help expand and promote the sport.

“Meanwhile,” said Yoshi, “because of increased membership we are seeking a larger premises.”

Professor Yoshi Hasegawa

Further proof that the sport is starting to become popular. A recent increase in interest from female students, has reshaped the club’s outlook. Plans to accommodate more women’s only classes, are now under club assessment.

In competition the club has been highly active. Considering that it was only opened in February 2017, some very good results have been achieved, in particular the Overall club trophy.

Sunshine Coast Championships 2019 saw Caza club finish, Overall, in third place, then the 2020 and 2021 Sunshine Coast- Open Carnivals saw CAZA finish Overall third and first.

With the Overall trophy being for the teams’ total points, it is a good indication as to the high standard of all competitors. Then to cap it off the club again performed well in the 2022 South Pacific Championships to again finish third in

the Overall competition.

In a club where age varies from five to the mid-seventies, to achieve such results, shows high standard of coaching from all levels. To help maintain this, Yoshi is supported, by Brown Belt assistant instructor, Sam Morrison.

Working under the guidance of Yoshi, he concentrates on the Kids (the youth). Morrison also has trained under Yoshi and the Japanese system of discipline and traditions of the art of JiuJitsu. The results speak for them- selves.

Two of Yoshi’s highly successful students are 12-year-old Daniel Svoboda and 14-year-old Kayden Koh. Daniels major achievement was winning the silver medal in the 2020 Pan Kid International Jiu-Jitsu championships in Los Angles. For Kayden his were winning the gold medal in the Pan Pacific Championships 2019 and in 2021 winning the silver medal at the Australian National Championships in Melbourne

was outstanding. “We were very happy with these results and the work of assistant coach Sam Morrison,” said Yoshi.

Another highlight occurred in December 2019 when Cheyne Douglas became the first CAZA student awarded the coveted black belt.

Following this in June 2022 John Bennett, aged 71, became the oldest member awarded the black belt. There are now eight black belts within the club. Well done to all students, competitors and most important the coaching of Professor Yoshi Hasegawa and staff.

Again, it shows, no football boots required to reach the top.

The achievements of coaches Mark Evans Boxing, Professor Yoshi Hasegawa jiu-jitsu, Mick Hooper Athletics and Bryan Dukas Karate, puts them amongst Australia’s finest. We in the community of Noosa can take pride. Our athletes are in the best of hands.

No prisoners in Noosa v Noosa Junior Dolphins’ clash The Dolphins headed to Gympie for strong competition Under 14s by lock Toby Eller Noosa Dolphins 14 defeated by Maroochydore Swans 40 It was great to be back on field after time away due to byes, the weather and school holidays. The grounds were soggy after an overnight shower at Albert Park in Gympie.

The first half went all of Maroochydore’s way and it was 26 to nil at half time.

With an inspirational talk from our coaching team during the break in play, we were a team with a different attitude for the second half. We went try for try and conversion for conversion with the Swans, with both teams scoring 14 points through the half, but unfortunately it was too late in the game and Maroochydore beat us by 26 points.

This week the team wore black arm bands as a sign of respect for the passing of our coach’s dad. Domino’s Pizza Player of the Match was Adrian de Klerk.

Under 12s by Ash Eller Noosa Dolphins 38 defeated Caloundra 19 The match got off to a fast start after Caloundra decided to kick off and Noosa went straight in with some hard runs to gain valuable metres. Noosa then pulled out a set attacking move hoping to get around

the Caloundra defensive line to be the first team to score, but unfortunately the ball was stripped by the Caloundra defence. Two phases later, Noosa managed to strip the ball back, then Caloundra faced a penalty, allowing Noosa to catch Caloundra off side and gain crucial ground. Noosa scored the first try of the match and slotted the conversion straight over the black dot.

The forwards did very well at sealing the ball which limited Caloundra’s opportunities to get it. This opened up the field for the backs to do some set plays and moves that they have been focusing on at training, and the scoring fest began. A great game with plenty of action and excitement for the crowd watching beside the Bruce Highway, with even a few trucks adding their appreciation as they passed by. Domino’s Pizza Players of the Match were Alex Bingham and Jack Shaw.

Under 11s We had an early game in Gympie on a cold winter’s day, but the boys brought the heat.

We were treated with much-improved ball retention and drive at the breakdowns. This led to an early try to Matthew Brook who was tireless again all game, as was pretty much everyone on the field.

Our boys continually stretched the Swans defence, leading to further tries to Victor Hiemstra and Will Stewart. Special mention

to the forwards who put in a big effort and our wingers Charlie, Riley and Harry who were the big improvers this week. The Dolphins kept the Swans scoreless which shows the strength of our defence throughout the game. Great match and great teamwork.

U10s After a cancellation from the Fins’ opposition, Reds and Fins headed to Gympie to share a half game against the Saints. The Reds were up first and played a solid Saints outfit with a few powerful and big kids in their pack.

In a half we witnessed some great attacking plays by Kai and Max which resulted in tries. Some strong defence by Raf and Cooper kept the score tight heading into half time.

The Fins entered the battle in the second half. In what always shapes up as a highlight of the season, the two Noosa teams played off in a 20-minute contest with junior president Adam Calcraft refereeing. You couldn’t separate the two teams with some incredible defensive efforts by all kids. Kai led the Reds from the front in a fantastic attacking display and Cooper saved a number of opposing attacking runs with a great tackling effort. Some impressive gains through the middle by Zac and Max and also a mention for Alby, Ollie, Jake, James, Connor and Riley. All coaches were very proud of the team effort and a well-

earned one-try win to the Reds.

Under 9s The mighty Under 9s journeyed up the highway to Gympie to face Saint Andrews. The Saints ran in two quick tries.

Some quick thinking and fancy footwork

by Monty and then Taylor brought us a swift try in reply. The Saints were equally quick to respond with another, but Taylor secured a loose pass for a great intercept try. This sparked a fire in the belly of the Fins’ players with Eric running in a fine try followed by Emmerson in a driving maul on the halftime bell.

The boys came out firing in the second half. A great run and hands from Eric gave Tom the opportunity to run away with a brilliant try. Next was a great team try with Jake finishing it off like a champion. Saints were lucky to break our revamped defence to steal another five points.

Then came an amazing try-saving tackle

by Hux, and strong and courageous aggression in both attack and defence from Sol and Hudson.

Further tries to Tom, Taylor, Eric saw the scoreboard quickly ticking over. It was a great game by the lads coming away with 11 tries to six to win, and Huxley earning the Domino’s Pizza Player of the Match.

An unlikely pair of mates Surfing’s a funny old game from time to time, as a couple of recent events at various levels of the pro tour have rammed home to me.

The first was the seemingly-inexplicable naming of Nathan Hedge as WSL sponsor wildcard for this week’s season-ending Outerknown Pro Tahiti. Don’t get me wrong here.

Hedgey is one of my all-time favourite surfers, not to mention one of the most endearingly loveable louts who ever made the championship tour. I had a bit to do with him in his early years on tour and I loved his go-for-it attitude, in and out of the water.

But the guy is 43 years old, hasn’t been on the big tour for a decade and a half, and this year only managed a 49th at the Challenger event in Manly and a more recent round of 16 finish in a minor event at Nias.

So why him, when there are so many better qualified barrel pigs recently bounced off tour who would just love to go berserk at Chopes?

I’m thinking Owen Wright or Ryan Callinan, just off the top of the head. There are many more.

Well, the short answer is Kelly Slater, but I’d better unpack that a bit.

The naming rights sponsor is Outerknown, Kelly’s French-funded upmarket surfwear brand, so if Kelly says Hog’s in, then Hog’s in.

Why would he though?

One reason might be that Hedgey is actually a minor team rider for Outerknown, which is almost certainly an act of compassion for a still-great surfer who has fought hard for years to finally beat his alcohol addiction.

But there’s actually more to this unlikely story.

Despite his frequently-expressed distaste for the antics of the Aussie booze brigade on tour 20 years ago, Kelly actually had a sneaking admiration for the way guys like Hedgey, Hoyo and Mick Campbell would never hold back and never leave you wondering.

On tour Hedgey was far more likely to be holding up the bar with Andy Irons than Kelly Slater, but in 2005 at the Nova Schin Pro in Brazil, these two great champions and the gutsy journeyman from North Narrabeen formed an unlikely triangle.

It was the most famous quarter-final of Nathan Hedge’s pro career and he was surfing brilliantly.

But as it came down to the wire, with threetime world champion Andy Irons desperately trying to peg back Hedge’s substantial lead, no one was watching.

Suddenly all eyes were on the drama unfolding in the beach grandstand where Kelly Slater was just moments away from capping his remarkable comeback by winning his seventh world title. All Hedgey had to do was hold on and Irons was out of the race and the title was Slater’s.

46 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 12 August, 2022

A trio of tour larrikins. L to R: Andy Irons, Nathan Hedge, Chris Davidson.

The emotion of the moment is captured beautifully in the documentary Letting Go. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house as Hedgey picked up another long left on the siren, rode it all the way to the beach and with clenched fist in the air, claimed the victory. But who was the battler claiming it for? Himself or Slater?

“I think he did it for both of us,” Slater told me a couple of years later.

“We have an interesting friendship, and at times it’s been almost brotherly, where I’ve felt he really wanted to show me something.

“He beat me fair and square at Jeffreys Bay the year before, and maybe he was completing something in Brazil. I don’t think I’ve seen anyone so focused on a plan to win a heat, and I think almost anyone else that day would have been blown out of the water by Andy.”

I know it’s not going to happen, but I’d love to see Hedgey and Kelly in the final at Teahupo’o this week. Then we’d see where the favours lie.

Marzo whistles up perfect 10 The other oddball thing that happened last week also peripherally involves Kelly Slater.

I first met a super-talented grom called Clay Marzo in 2007 when we were both enjoying the hospitality of the soon-to-be GOAT at Kelly Week on Tavarua, Fiji.

I saw the young goofy-foot get some amazingly-deep barrels at Cloudbreak and Restaurants that week, but one beautiful day at

Hedgey goes hard at Sunset, 2008.

Cloudbreak he was inadvertently responsible for my most embarrassing moment in surfing.

I was sitting out at Middles with Kelly and Shane Dorian, waiting for them to take pity on me and let me take off on my borrowed ninefour Aipa Sting.

A set came and they gave me the nod, but as I paddled up the line to get a little deeper, I spotted Clay Marzo paddling. He was far too deep to make it but as I took off I heard the shrill, loud whistle he’d been using all morning.

I pumped hard to get through the first section then pulled out in his favour.

Slater and Dorian were right there, gobsmacked and furious.

Picture: ASP

Picture: ASP I said: “Marzo’s in that thing!”

They looked up the line to where Clay was sitting quietly in the line-up, still waiting, and shook their heads sadly.

So Marzo was in Bali last week for the Rip Curl Cup at Padang-Padang. Knocked out in the quarters, he got a recall when Benji Brand retired hurt, went on and won the thing with a perfect 10. Apparently there was no whistling.

FOOTNOTE: It’s hard to top Marzo’s performance at Padang, but 15-year-old Hawaiian super-grom Erin Brooks almost did. Having won the women’s event, she also made it to the final of the men’s and held her own against three of the best tube-riders in the world. Bravo!

DRY JULY? NOT IN THE NOOSA MARKET PROPERTY MATTERS ERLE LEVEY DEFYING gloomy media predictions, it was a strong start for the 2022/23 financial year, with regional areas remaining in hot demand and nowhere more so than in the Noosa area.

Residential transactions in the postcodes of 4566 (Noosaville) and 4567 (Noosa Heads, Sunshine Beach and Sunrise) this year have averaged 68 per month and $2.19m, with the highest at $28m for a beachfront house and lowest at just $166,500 for a one-bedroom apartment on Weyba Rd, Noosaville.

Some of the more recent Tom Offermann Real Estate results including pre and post auction are the Lauren Chen-listed 7 Wave Ave, Noosaville - $1.575m; also, in Noosa Waters the Michael McComas and Nic Hunter-listed 23 Seamount Quay - $5.61, a record for the street.

65 Hilton Esplanade, Tewantin Sold to a local couple on first inspection; impressed by the quality, workmanship, and location. 292590

A two-bedroom, one-bathroom, one-car apartment at 3/9 Henderson St, Sunshine Beach, is set for auction at 11am on Saturday, August 20. 292590

and the Jesse Stowers/Tom Offermannlisted apartment 101 at Maison Noosa, also on Hastings St, sold at auction for $6m.

Auction success also for Julie Bengtsson with 502 The Ridge at 61 Noosa Springs Dve, Noosa Springs, which sold under the hammer for $2,72m, while it was a preauction sale on the riverside at 65 Hilton Esplanade, Tewantin. It was a record - in excess of $4m - for the street yet jubilant listers Mal Cox and Peter TeWhata ensure those who missed out should check out a residence a few doors away at 33 Hilton Esplanade.

“The local market is characterised by an extreme shortage of properties available for buyers to choose from,” commented agency principal Tom Offermann, “with around one out of every 200 titles on offer, whereas in a normal market there would be five or six.

“This remains great news for anyone thinking of selling due to the low levels of competition and a backlog of buyers still

A two-bedroom, one-bathroom, one-car apartment at 3/9 Henderson St, Sunshine Beach, is set for auction at 11am on Saturday, August 20.

Kathy Wise of Sunshine Beach Real Estate said another part of the appeal was it being in a small complex of three.

“They are hard to get in Sunshine,’’ Kathy said. “I get asked about them all the time but rarely do they come up … they’re like a unicorn really.

“Another thing is the natural light … right from early morning.

Mark Saturday and Sunday, September 24 and 25, in your diaries and if you are wondering about the benefits, consider the following: Spring school holiday season marketing provides greater exposure to a bigger audience of cashed up buyers visiting from Brisbane and interstate; benefit from the power of ten or more marketing campaigns running simultaneously attracting a broad cross-section of buyers; powerful promotion including social media and editorial support; and sell while the competition is low. Markets around the country are softening while the Noosa market remains attractive.

“Auctions remain the most effective method of sale, no matter what the market conditions are like,” added Tom, “offering benefits over private treaty such as faster

A two-bedroom, one-bathroom brick cottage at 22 Grant St, Noosa Heads, goes to auction at 1pm on Saturday, August 20. 292590 “There is a pool in the complex, you can walk to the village, and straight across the park is access to the beach.

“There is also the possibility it could be holiday let as well.’’

Kathy has seen good inspections at the first open homes … mainly Brisbane and Melbourne buyers.

There are locals looking to be closer to the ocean, while Brisbane inquiries have been about a great second home for the weekend.

The Nimoola complex is framed by leafy tropical gardens and the apartment features ocean views from the north-east facing balcony.

Freshly painted throughout, features include new oak hybrid flooring in the kitchen and living, new carpets in the bedrooms, stone benches in kitchen, new appliances, new cabinetry, stunning mirror splashback, luxury stand-alone bathtub plus brass tapware and sink in the bathroom, ceiling fans, and solar power.

There is secure lock-up car parking under the building, as well as off-street visitor parking.

FIRST TIME TO MARKET Peter TeWhata at Tom Offermann Real Estate has an interesting auction coming up this month.

A modest two-bedroom, one-bathroom brick cottage at 22 Grant St, Noosa Heads, was built in 1983 and has never

been to the market.

With verandah out the front, pergola out the back, and in original condition, you just have to look at the properties surrounding this hot spot address and the cosmopolitan-with-class location, making it an opportunity to refurbish, renovate or redevelop.

The property is in a medium density residential zone and encompasses an elevated lengthy site with level areas both front and rear.

The north and south boundaries are 34.8m long, while the north-east facing, deep back garden is secluded from neighbours and has great elevation.

It is set for auction at 1pm on Saturday, August 20.

LOVE THE LIFESTYLE Noosaville offers a relaxed atmosphere that embraces everyone. Welcoming waterfront cafes, restaurants and bars along Gympie Terrace provide the perfect vantage point to take in the views of Noosa River as it winds its way along the foreshore.

That’s part of the reason Dean McLure of The McLure Group is being swamped with inquiries about a single-level house on 562sq m at 27 Robert St that goes to auction this month.

The five-bedroom, three-bathroom house with pool is set to meet the market on Sunday, August 21, at 11am.

A five-bedroom, three-bathroom house with pool at 27 Robert St, Noosaville, goes to auction Sunday, August 21, at 11am. 292590 “With absolutely nothing left to do than simply move in and enjoy, this home offers single-level lifestyle with a private street presence and secure surroundings,’’ Dean said.

“We’re getting an outstanding response ... I’m getting smashed to be honest.

“There is plenty of interest from interstate, especially Sydney and Melbourne people who are ready to move.

About to launch another in Noosa Waters … auction “They generally sold up last year and have been looking for their new home in Noosa.’’

Exquisitely renovated throughout and filled with natural light, this family home is only moments from the Noosa River foreshore.

It offers a flexible floorplan that encourages indoor/outdoor living and entertaining beside the pool.

A servery window integrates the central, stone kitchen with the alfresco verandah.

“Every element has been meticulously considered and superbly executed,’’ Dean said.

“There are four spacious bedrooms plus media room, bespoke wet areas including butler’s pantry and two bathrooms.’’

HOME FOCUS

LIVING LOVING LIFE TO THE MAX AHH, the serenity of living in, and loving, a residence designed with a nod to the classic river house, located a few fishing rod-lengths away from the parklike foreshore, and with the much-lauded address of Hilton Esplanade.

The gate into a sun-drenched courtyard fringed by lush hedges reveals an undercover terrace amplified by a restrained palette, neutral tones, and easy engagement with the north-facing wide natural beauty of the Noosa River, also unimpeded verdant views beyond.

Indoors, the residence is spacious and gracious. It revels in high ceilings, ravishing polished blackbutt flooring, breeze-inducing louvres, and is a harmonious mix of unexpected combinations.

An open plan living space with a bar seamlessly melds to outdoors and spells alfresco entertaining, while a space on the south-east side with a wall of custom cabinetry, suggests it could be a home cinema. Perfect too for the mobility impaired, as the lift is nearby and accessible via the ramp at the back door which also leads to the rear garden, a secure workshop as well as the car and boat spaces.

In addition, on the ground level is a hallway, two light bedrooms with built-in robes, and a new bright white commodious bathroom with a walk/wheel-in shower, safety rails and a toilet.

Take the lift to the hallway on the next level; alternatively, the blackbutt-treaded stairs.

Admire the almost cathedral height ceilings in the generous open plan living and dining area which coalesce with the covered terrace.

Drink in those mesmerising northerly river views, hear amazing choruses from the pretty birdlife, see pleasure craft bobbing along the waterway and watch neighbours intent on catching dinner from a jetty - just some of the shore albeit sure ways to connect with nature and the ’locals’.

The recently renovated kitchen, boasting the latest appliances from Miele, stonetopped cabinetry and generous storage will appeal to any budding master chef. Nearby is a multi-purpose area, currently used as an office.

In the south-east wing, the master bedroom has two walls of built-in robes,and the contemporary bathroom has sandytoned tiles as well as a separate powder room.

“This year-round cool, contemporary residence is surrounded by numerous prestige properties and the location is unparalleled,” commented Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Mal Cox and Peter TeWhata.

“It is several steps to the shallows of

the Noosa River, an idyllic spot to picnic, swim, fish, kayak, paddle board or go boating. Walk to Gympie Terrace with its bevy of cafes, bars and boutiques, Noosa Marina, Noosa Library, and the Noosa Leisure Centre. Hastings Street, Noosa Main Beach and the Noosa National Park are a short drive away.”

LITTLE COVE’S SPARKLING JEWEL NESTLED amid lush greenery of the Noosa National Park on three sides, perched beside a private driveway close to the walkway to Hastings Street and Noosa Main Beach, is a sun-kissed brilliant white, beach-style residence.

The magic begins at the entry way with feature ponds either side and towering brushboxes, bloodwoods, cypress pines, and eucalypts koalas call home, the backdrop.

On the upper level, beautiful white open plan living, and dining spaces coalesce with an undercover terrace and a massive north and east-facing secluded alfresco space. It has an immediate connection to the sheer beauty and birdsong of the natural forest environment.

Admire the clerestory height raked ceilings, how expanses of frameless glass panes and banks of louvres are protected by wide eaves, and almost all of them open allowing cross-ventilation, also light to shadow dance at its whim.

With numerous entertaining options

on both levels those channelling an inner Jamie Oliver will be thrilled with residence’s galley-style kitchen. There are white stonetopped benches and the full complement of high-end Miele appliances. An island/ breakfast bar extends outdoors thanks to a gas-strut servery window, and fridges are under-bench.

Think 5-star holiday heaven in the king master suite with its undercover terrace, open-sided terrazzo-tiled ensuite, free-standing bathtub, large frameless glass shower, double vanities in ’floating’ cabinetry plus built-in robes with shoji doors. Next door has custom office cabinetry as well as built-in robes, so the choice is yours.

On the entry level, a carpeted second living/media area has access to a long undercover terrace, as do two bedrooms with built-in robes. One has a powder room ensuite and there’s a family size bathroom, also laundry and a storeroom.

This luxurious Little Cove residence offers an enviable lifestyle in one of the

classiest, most sought after and tightly held locations. The address is about a 170m walk to the top of the stair track which leads down to Hastings Street and Main Beach, alternatively via the boardwalk it’s about 275m to Hastings Street.

Other attributes include close proximity to Little Cove Beach and the World Surfing Reserve area, which covers the top point breaks from Laguna Bay on Noosa Main Beach all the way via dedicated walking tracks to the beach break at North Sunshine Beach.

“This residence encapsulates everything about living or holidaying in Little Cove,” enthuses Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Chris Miller, who is taking the property to auction on Saturday 20 August 2022. “It’s so close to the main entrance of the Noosa National Park with its backdrop of natural beauty and environmental sustainability. This is a oneoff opportunity for an enterprising buyer or astute investor.” ●

PROPERTY NEWS

PROPERTY MEDIA HARMONY IS the data economy confusing, social media overrated and print media in decline? What about all those platforms and how can we turn insights into action especially when it comes to understanding property marketing?

When News Corp announced the closure of print edition newspapers in Queensland in 2020, there was outcry in the community, especially from those who relied heavily on the printed word for valuable information, community engagement and a marketing platform.

Many readers are not digitally connected or savvy, while others just prefer to consume news and local happenings as hard copy.

Noosa Today, one of 30 mastheads included in the independent Star News Group, became that much-needed voice for residents by providing quality news and views for the Noosa region. It also became critical to the local democracy, holding the powerful to account.

Paul Thomas, managing director of the group said “Noosa Today distributes 22,350 printed copies weekly, or approximately 90,000 copies monthly and 1,162,200 per annum.

“The majority of newspapers are homedelivered and read by several members of the household. noosatoday.com.au

Real estate agency principal Tom Offermann. 247239

Managing Director Star News Group Paul Thomas. 247239

The numbers at open houses can quadruple when an ad appears … the traffic to websites clearly spikes as readers head there for more information” “With 2677 digital edition subscribers and over 40,000 weekly, from Queensland, Victoria and NSW, overall readership figures increase exponentially.”

In property marketing, the value of print advertising cannot be overstated.

Some real estate agents are telling sellers that all buyers and potential sellers, will see the property on the internet, but that is far from the truth.

“They are missing opportunities which could be costing those sellers dearly,” explained Tom Offermann, eponymous real estate company principal.

“We gather an enormous amount of data which dramatically demonstrates how powerful print media is.

“The numbers at open houses can quadruple when an ad appears in Noosa Today, and the traffic to websites clearly

spikes as readers head there for more information.

“Property editorials, auction results and up-to-the-minute stories in early general news, are also invaluable.”

Tom Offermann, who has been marketing Noosa property for 30 years, is completely candid about which advertising works and what is a waste of money.

“A tailored marketing campaign is an investment to ultimately achieve the best outcome, and the return on your investment to be many times its cost.

“Marketing is not the place to take shortcuts if you are aiming for a premium price, and advertising in the local newspaper is inexpensive.

“I feel sorry for property owners who have been advised to solely advertise on the web.

“It would be nice if it was that simple, but the truth is it is not.

“A lot of work goes into designing and running a comprehensive marketing campaign and agents who think web-only advertising is the quick fix are taking risks with their client’s investment.”

“It is not until after every potential property marketing source for buyers is accurately explored that sellers can be confident, they will achieve the best price,” concluded Tom Offermann. ● Friday, 12 August, 2022

ON THE COVER

CLASSY 4-BEDROOM TOWNHOUSE WITH POOL WHEN it comes to emotional appeal, rarity factor and beautiful townhouses in ace locations close to the Noosa River, coveted Bluefin Court holds the key. But will this four-bedroom treasure with a pool, make it to auction day or be sold prior?

Lush plantings and potted colour are a pretty sight near the courtyard front entry and along the side garden.

Open the statement door to a hallway where natural light bounces on the light sandy coloured tiles, thanks to a wall of louvres in the open plan living area.

Glass timber framed doors reveal anthuriums and cordylines on the south side and the area demonstrates effortless living, a neutral palette, and total functionality inside and out to the pool, also the alfresco terrace for barbeques.

It is fringed by garden on two sides, has an inground market umbrella and a wide auto awning ensures summer is bliss.

And there is more to love.

In the centre of the home is a conservatory-style atrium with a stunning vergola roof system. Imagine drinks at the bar with friends, cheering on the favoured team during footy season, a kid’s hangout zone, romantic dinners during winter … or whatever takes your fancy. Numerous entertaining options demand a great kitchen and with stone-topped, 2-pac cabinetry, all the whizz-bang appliances and a servery to the terrace, this is in the hub of it all.

Before heading up the polished richtoned timber stairs, take a peek into the king master bedroom with a walk-in robe and ensuite. This is a clever design consideration.

In the west wing, two of the three queensize carpeted bedrooms share a generous undercover terrace. Off the additional bedroom there is an undercover terrace on the south-side, also plantation shutters on the east side making it a delightful space for morning coffee or tea.

Adjacent to the family-size bathroom with a bathtub, is a powder room.

“There are many townhouses that will catch your eye,” explains Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Robyn Reid, who is taking the property to auction on Friday 26 August 2022, “however when it comes to rarity factor of four bedrooms and the blue-ribbon location, this will also capture

your heart. There’s an innate sense of community spirit in the Bluefin Court precinct, which is next to the prestigious Noosa Waters canal development.

“Leave the car at home, walk through a park to local cafes, supermarkets and Sunday Farmers Market, or stroll along a lane which leads to a shopping village, while a little further on is the Noosa River with its parks and popular restaurants.”

HOME FOCUS

FINE DESIGN AND CLOSE TO BEACH LOCATED within a few hundred metres of the golden sands of Sunshine Beach this modern contemporary residence is distinguished by thoughtful, intentional design that speaks for itself.

Privately positioned off the street, the open floor plan of this home maximises the feeling of space and airiness, utilising the use of natural light to illuminate the residence, while the extensive use of louvres ensures cooling cross breezes through the summer months.

The elevated ceiling, timber floors and extensive use of glass combine to ensure this modern light-filled duplex captures the true essence of modern-day beachside living across two levels of casual sophistication.

The ground level is all about lifestyle, boldly promoting alfresco living, dining and entertaining.

The indoor spaces flow seamlessly onto generous decks, under cover dining and pristine pool, creating an atmosphere of relaxation and calm that is quintessentially

Sunshine Beach. A modern generouslysized kitchen complimented by high-end appliances and ample bench space is ideally positioned to service both the indoor and outdoor dining and entertaining areas.

In addition, a powder room and laundry are conveniently located on this level.

The upper level offers three generously sized bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The master bedroom accommodates a generous ensuite, walk-in robe and private deck. The second bedroom also boasts a private deck while all three bedrooms are air-conditioned.

The intelligent design of this home includes the many features you would expect to find in a high-end property, such as solar, security system, large double garage with internal access, gated security access and modern louvre windows which draw the cooling summer breezes throughout. A five-minute easy stroll will find you among the Sunshine village eateries, surf club and patrolled beach; or head north to enjoy the national park and Alexandria Bay with coastal walks to Hastings Street, Noosa. ●

HOME FOCUS

EXPANSIVE WATER VIEWS IN a small group of apartments, this lovely property has a beautiful lake on one side but is right in the heart of the main retail and commercial areas of Tewantin.

Once inside the apartment, gazing over almost 180-degree views of picturesque Lake Doonella, you could be in the heart of the peaceful countryside!

The well-maintained apartment will have enormous appeal as a downsizer, a first home, an investment, or a “lock and leave” for the lucky owner. It really is a blank canvas for the next owner to make their own.

A small flight of stairs takes you up from the carport into a small, welcoming north-facing sun-room and through stylish double timber doors into the single level apartment.

Almost every room has peaceful views over the sloping lawns and lake.

Two spacious bedrooms, a separate toilet, a main bathroom with bath, and a shower room with laundry facilities, are practical features of the design. Split system air conditioning for heating and

cooling provides year-round comfort Enjoy the views from inside the apartment, or relax in the shade on the lawns, gazing over the lake and watching the abundant birdlife, including swans and pelicans.

You won’t need your car here, with all facilities, including banks, medical centre, bus stop and supermarkets all within an easy walk.

And the beautiful Noosa River is nearby, too!

Just a five-minute walk will take you to the Noosa Marina where you can enjoy the boutique shops and weekend markets, have a drink at the Wine Bar, dine at a selection of restaurants, or jump on the ferry to Hastings Street.

With the added bonus of low body corporates, this apartment will be hot property.

Don’t be one of those buyers who will say in a few years: “If only I had bought…”

Be quick to inspect to make it yours now! ●

‘WHIMBREL’ COTTAGE OVERLOOKING the Lake Doonella reserve and just 10 minutes’ walk to the Tewantin village, ‘Whimbrel’ sits in one of the old town’s best north-eastern positions.

Named for the migratory birds that gather at the lake each year, Whimbrels are part of the Curlew species that travel from colder climes to complete their feeding activity and fly on again. The home is original in appearance, features a sunny parkland aspect, is lovingly presented and suitable for those wishing to downsize, retire or wanting the potential to redevelop. Consisting of two double bedrooms, a bright and light lounge, modern galley kitchen, renovated bathroom, separate toilet and a good-sized connecting garage with window that could convert to a media or bunk room.

For those with a caravan, boat or a classic car, there’s ample room on the gently sloping well-drained 600m2 land to erect a substantial shed. There is currently a small garden shed.

Built in simpler times, ‘Whimbrel’ Cottage will appeal to those who appreciate earlier days, while present day ownership offers one of Tewantin’s best locations and a lifestyle with so much potential.
