Cops get tough on crime Police are cracking down on aggravated burglaries, carjackings, street robberies and stolen vehicles in two targeted operations across Wyndham and surrounding areas. Operation Regnant has deployed extra local and state police resources – including a police helicopter and dog squad – into overnight patrols across Wyndham, Brimbank and Melton to tackle aggravated burglaries, carjackings and related offences. Police from the north-west metro region have also been conducting Operation Wayward, which has been investigating specific patterns of offending and chasing up lines of inquiry – particularly relating to street robberies and armed robberies – across Wyndham, Brimbank, Maribyrnong and Hobsons Bay. Wyndham Police Inspector Marty Allison said detectives working on Operation Regnant, which has run for the past month, had so far nabbed eight offenders and charged them with a combined 42 offences, including theft of cars and theft from cars. The operation remains ongoing. Inspector Allison said this was not the first time such an operation had been run. “Where we see incidents on the rise … we pour some resources into the areas of most need,” he said. “For us, it’s not so much about the results or how many arrests have been made, it’s about what crimes we have prevented by our presence.” A Victoria Police spokesman said Operation Wayward investigators had arrested 38 people within the past four

months, with individuals charged with a number of offences, including armed robbery, aggravated burglary and theft of motor vehicle. Meanwhile, Wyndham police were kept busy last week with several crimes not connected to either Operation Regnant or Operation Wayward reported in the area. On June 5, a police helicopter and officers on the road intercepted two youths driving a stolen car in Tarneit following a brief pursuit and arrested the pair in relation to an alleged robbery in Mala Street, Truganina.

A 15-year-old Southbank boy was charged with robbery, theft and other offences, and a 17-year-old Truganina boy was interviewed and released pending inquiries. About 10.45pm the same day, three men armed with a hammer and a long knife allegedly threatened an attendant during an armed robbery at a Truganina service station along Leakes Road and fled with cash and cigarettes. On Sunday, police arrested two men at the Sanctuary Lakes Shopping Centre following reports of an alleged theft and assault at a bottle shop. A 22 year old Melton man was charged with theft, assault, resisting police and affray. A 20-year-old Point Cook man was charged with theft, assault with a weapon and affray. Both men were bailed to appear in court at a later date.

Postive vibe for pageant Racheal Smythe is a role model for body positivity. The Wyndham Vale woman will represent Australia at the Global United Pageant, to be held in Minnesota in the US from July 19 to 22. “I want to go over to have fun – I’m not in it to win it – but I also want to get the body positivity message across,” she said. Ms Smythe, who is also known as pin-up model Miss Harlow Heels, said the pageant was also a chance to continue her interest in charity work, as it asks contestants to raise money for a childhood cancer awareness or research organisation.

Giddings to guide detention plan By Charlene Macaulay Avalon Airport chief executive Justin Giddings will head a community panel to guide development of Werribee’s new youth detention centre. The state government has announced its 15-member community advisory group, whose members have been selected on their local connections, to share information about the youth prison with the Wyndham community and will provide feedback to the youth justice redevelopment project team and government. Mr Giddings is joined by Wyndham

Police Inspector Marty Allison, Wyndham councillors Kim McAliney, Peter Maynard and Walter Villagonzalo, council officer Natalie Walker, Barbara McLure from the Committee for Wyndham, former Wyndham mayor and business owner John Menegazzo, Annette Vickery from the Victorian Aboriginal Legal Service, business owner Marisa Berton, Wyndham resident and former Speak Out chair Lisa Heinrichs, and Peter Ewer, Garry Jackson, Lenard Norman and Richard Wittmack, all from the justice department. The group will meet for the first time on June 19.

Mr Giddings said he was honoured by the appointment and would “ensure the people of Wyndham are heard”. “I will be working closely with all the members of the Community Advisory Group to make the Youth Justice Redevelopment Project a success in Wyndham,” he said. Richard Wittmack, who is heading the project, told Star Weekly in April the group would meet regularly until the centre was open. “We’re looking for them to be people who are engaged with the community who can disseminate information about the project and also bring forward suggestions from the

community about the project,” Mr Wittmack said. “Some of the things they will be engaged around is the lighting for the facility, the traffic management plan, the cultural heritage management plan … this is very similar to what we’ve done with Ravenhall and other projects.” Construction on the youth detention centre is expected to begin in mid-2018. The centre, which will include 224 beds for remanded and sentenced youths aged 10 to 21, a 12-bed mental health unit and an eight-bed intensive supervision unit, is earmarked to open in early 2021.

was the suburb’s biggest Point Cook property “by a long shot”. Mr Perry said the current Panorama Way record holder was a 50-square home on a 1000 square metre allotment. In comparison, the Greg Norman Drive property spans 70 squares over 1780 square metres. Mr Perry said despite the large price tag, the property was great value for money. “To replicate the build today … it’s probably about a $4-million build, plus the land. It’s impossible to replicate this property for the same price. It’s down to the fact that the median sale price in Point Cook is $571,000.” The property, which was built and owned by Distinction Homes director Metod Mohar,

This Sanctuary Lakes property has six bedrooms, four bathrooms, a 15-car garage, views of the golf course … and an asking price of $2.55 million - $2.65 million. The property, located in a gated part of the estate along Greg Norman Drive, will break a Point Cook price record if it sells for its asking price. The current suburb record is held by a Panorama Way property that sold in March for $2.33 million – less than two years after it sold for $2.1 million and became the most expensive residential real estate in Point Cook to that point.

Bin bandits who steal and vandalise household wheelie bins have cost Wyndham council more than $72,000 during the past year. In the past 12 months, the council has spent $72,399 on repairing and replacing stolen and damaged residential bins. Wyndham’s city operations director Stephen Thorpe said the council had spent $40,895 replacing more than 1280 rubbish and recycling bins, which residents had reported as stolen in the last financial year. He said that within the same timeframe, the council also spent $31,504 on fixing and replacing more than 4500 damaged and vandalised wheelie bins. Mr Thorpe said the council was responsible for more than 70,000 residential wheelie bins. “For residents, having their garbage or recycling bins stolen can be a frustrating situation, which is why we work hard to replace or repair them as quickly as possible,” he said. Community groups have said the money which the council has been forced to spend on bins could be better spent on initiatives to help the environment. The Friends of Skeleton Creek secretary Denice Perryman said it was a pity that bin thieves and vandals were forcing the council to spend so much money on replacing and repairing bins. “I’d far rather see the money spent on the environment than replacing wheelie bins,” Ms Perryman said. See wyndham.vic.gov.au or contact the council on 9742 0777 to report damaged or stolen bins.

fetching the reserve price with ease, at least on the figures we the public get to see. There was a time when Werribee was considered the sticks. That time is long gone. The ties to a country style of living are also nearly all gone. You can only wonder how long the Werribee South market gardeners will continue before the developers make them offers too good to refuse. The romance of the man on the land does not carry the same currency as it once did. The baby boomers that moved to Hoppers in the late 70s and early 80s are on the move. Some are staying locally and making retirement villages their next home. The three-bedroom house on a third of an acre was attractive in your 30s but high maintenance in your 60s. Villages with houses with more living space and small gardens and amenities that the body corporate maintains have enormous appeal. The City of Wyndham is a lot different to the Shire of Werribee and that has its good and bad points. We all have the choice to stay or go. â–

The Liberal Party has opened up pre-selection nominations for the seat of Tarneit 17 months out from the next state election. Earlier this month, the Liberals put the call out for nominations for the seats of Tarneit, Melton, Albert Park, Macedon, Monbulk, Mulgrave and Sunbury, with applications closing on July 17. In an email sent to Liberal Party Victoria members earlier this month, state director Simon Frost said the party particularly encouraged nominations for the seats of Tarneit and Melton, “where the failure of local Labor members of Parliament to appropriately represent their communities has caused widespread anger across Victoria”. Tarneit MP Telmo Languiller resigned from his role as Speaker in February after controversy surrounding almost $40,000 worth of living allowances. The decision to open up pre-selection nominations in Tarneit so far out from the November, 2018, election is a departure from tradition for the Liberal Party, with nominations usually happening only a few months out from an election. Mr Frost said Liberal Party members were very keen to begin strong campaigns against Mr Languiller and Melton MP Don Nardella. He said other seats, including Werribee, would be considered at the next meeting of the party’s administrative committee in July.

Williamstown’s Ella Bambery remembers the night World War II ended, singing Land of Hope and Glory in honour of the “mother country”. Now, she has been recognised in the Queen’s Birthday honours with a Medal of the Order of Australia for a life of service to the community of Williamstown and the western suburbs. Mrs Bambery, 99, is a foundation member and served as president for 10 years of the Williamstown Legacy Widows Club. During WWII, she was a member of The Concert Party, a troupe of entertainers who toured Victoria performing for convalescing servicemen at repatriation hospitals and personnel at internment and prisoner-of-war camps. After the war, she joined Williamstown Little Theatre in 1949, where she served as a performer, committee member and treasurer until the 1980s. She describes one of her most rewarding roles as being caring for patients. Mrs Bambery has been a volunteer and phone counsellor with Mercy Palliative Care in the western region for 13 years, and has volunteered with Southern Cross nursing home at Newport and with Meals on Wheels. “I loved the work and it enriched my life,” she said of her volunteering with palliative patients. “I met the most courageous and beautiful people, and I got far more out of it than I put in to it.” Mrs Bambery said she couldn’t believe she had been named in the Queen’s Birthday honours list. “I really didn’t think I deserved it,” she said. “Then I thought, Kylie Minogue gets it for her hot pants.” End of Financial Year Offer

Violinist on the rise When Nyssa Sanguansri was three years old, she saw a television cartoon of Bugs Bunny playing the violin. That inspired her to ask her parents for violin lessons – for which she had to wait another two years. “When we went to the music shop, they didn’t have a small enough violin, so I had to wait until I was five to begin,” Ms Sanguansri said. Now aged 21, Ms Sanguansri, a Tarneit resident, is studying at the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music and has formed a classical musical group, The Invictus Quartet, with three other students. Next month, the quartet will fly to Townsville to join the Winterschool program that is part

of the Australian Festival of Chamber Music. The educational program will provide coaching and mentoring to emerging ensembles for the duration of the festival, which starts on July 28. Ms Sanguansri said she and the other Invictus Quartet members were thrilled about their involvement. “It was really good to see our hard work pay off,” she said. Ms Sanguansri said the quartet would take part in masterclasses with international musicians and perform at concerts. She hopes to become a solo and orchestral violinist. Alesha Capone

Armstrong Road works start By Charlene Macaulay Preliminary works have begun on the $11.5 million extension to Armstrong Road that will connect Greens and Black Forest roads in Wyndham Vale. Wyndham mayor and transport portfolio holder Henry Barlow said the council was undertaking drainage works as part of the arterial road connection, which is one of the big-ticket items in its 2017-18 budget. Construction of the road link is expected to

be complete by mid-2018. Cr Barlow said the Armstrong Road extension would remove thousands of vehicles from local Wyndham Vale roads, including Haines Drive, Ribblesdale Avenue and Greens Road. “It will also decrease travel times to the Wyndham Vale railway station,” he said. “Council will be able to determine project commencement dates upon all contractual arrangements being finalised.” Meanwhile, Wyndham council has been working with developers Lendlease in a bid to

fast-track construction of the Armstrong-Ison Road link from Black Forest Road to the Princes Freeway. The link will give Wyndham Vale and Manor Lakes residents direct access to the Princes

Freeway without having to pass through Werribee’s CBD. According to Get Wyndham Moving e-newsletter, the council, Lendlease and VicRoads are each expected to fund parts of the link with a view to having it built as a single project. “Further design work is still required and financial arrangements to be finalised,” the e-newsletter said. “However, council is optimistic that this link will be built and finished in two to three years.”

Firey saves the day An off-duty volunteer firefighter single-handedly put out a fire at KFC Pacific Werribee recently while he was getting his morning coffee. Hoppers Crossing firefighter Colin Camilleri said he was playing on his phone while waiting for a coffee at the Groove Train on May 28 when someone pointed out smoke coming out of KFC. “I stuck my head up and I could see flames reflecting out of the window of the drive-through,” Mr Camilleri said. “There was a young girl in there at the time and she was trying to put the fire out herself and couldn’t do it, so I put the fire blanket over it and used the chemical extinguisher to extinguish some of the flames that were going up the back into the exhaust fan. “By the time the fire brigade got there, the flames were extinguished. Mr Camilleri, who joined the Hoppers Crossing Fire Brigade just after the Black

Saturday bushfires, said he was simply in the right place at the right time. “I’m a little bit humbled by everyone saying it was good what I had done … to me, it was something that any firey would have done. “Being able to assist people in their time of need is a special feeling.” A KFC spokeswoman said the cause of the fire was still being investigated. “We are grateful for Colin’s quick thinking in assisting the restaurant. We are thankful no one was injured as a result of the fire,” the spokeswoman said. Charlene Macaulay

Election investigation on track By Charlene Macaulay The investigation into the 2016 Wyndham council election is well underway, with the Local Government Investigations and Compliance Inspectorate wrapping up candidate interviews this week. The Local Government Inspectorate kicked off interviews with more than 70 of the 95 candidates last Wednesday, as part of a wide-ranging investigation into bribery, unlawful nominations and deceptive conduct during last year’s council election campaign.

Candidates have been called in to confirm their candidate eligibility and identify any unlawful activities, with all interviews recorded by the Inspectorate. Star Weekly understands that a small number of candidates were a no-show or rescheduled their interviews, but that many of those had legitimate reasons for cancelling. The Inspectorate would not reveal the names of candidates who had failed to show up for interviews. Chief Municipal Inspector David Wolf said interviews, which will run until Friday, were progressing well.

“We are conducting more than 70 interviews with former candidates. The inspectorate has received valuable information from the public and former candidates after a call for public submissions through traditional and social media,” Mr Wolf said. “Once the process is completed we will look at particular persons of interest. “For those who either neglect to attend a compulsory interview or refuse to do so, they may be subpoenaed to appear in the Supreme Court to clarify their failure to appear.” Star Weekly understands the inspectorate

had already spoken to 20 parties – including eight candidates – regarding the investigation prior to this round of interviews. In an interview with Star Weekly last month, Mr Wolf said the reasons behind interviewing all election candidates were two-fold: one, to get a full picture of what occurred throughout the council election campaign, and two, to clear the names of the genuine candidates. “The focus of the investigation is some of the individual behaviour, but also to try and see if we can confirm some of the gaps in the overall system,” he said.

Golden day for couple When John and Dorothy Kessner first met nearly 70 years ago, it wasn’t exactly love at first sight. The pair met at a dinner dance when Dorothy was only 13 and John was 17 and, perhaps owing to Dorothy’s young age, romance did not blossom. Despite this, the pair kept bumping into each other at other dances and events, and sparks eventually flew. “She had lots of boyfriends,” John joked. “She fitted me in for a few dates along the way. “I remember saying to her: ‘every time we meet, we seem to have an argument. Why don’t we get married?’” Dorothy added: “Wasn’t that a great proposal?” The Kessners married on April 13, 1957, and moved into a bungalow behind a friend’s house in Yarraville. They also lived in Altona, Little River and

the Wyndham Green estate before settling in Tarneit three years ago. Along the way, Dorothy and John added children Karen, Susan and John to the brood, followed by four grandchildren. The pair are keen travellers and caravanners, and were big fans of spending time in Queensland where John, a trombonist, would perform with the Sunshine Coast concert band, and Dorothy would surf. The Kessners recently celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary among 60 family and friends, and members of the Werribee Concert Band, of which John is a member, played music from throughout the decades. John, now 84, also bought Dorothy, 81, a diamond ring to celebrate the occasion. “We enjoy doing the same things … we’ve had a lot of good times.” Charlene Macaulay

Khan faces online stoush probe By Charlene Macaulay Wyndham councillor Intaj Khan will come under council scrutiny over his role in a social media stoush with residents. Cr Khan took to the Wyndham Residents United Facebook group last Wednesday night and attacked his own council, claiming it was delaying a state government plan to build an Indian Cultural Precinct in the area and had “sneakily changed” the name of the project to the South Asian Cultural Precinct.

When residents pointed out that the money for the precinct’s feasibility study had only been allocated late last year, Cr Khan threatened to sue one resident and accused another of being part of a “fake news group”. It is believed the council has received a complaint about the Facebook exchange. Wyndham chief executive Kelly Grigsby said the council was aware of Cr Khan’s statements and was looking into them. “Whether there has been a breach of the councillor code of conduct will be assessed as part of that process,” Ms Grigsby said.

Under the councillor code of conduct, councillors must avoid conflicts between their public duties as councillors and their personal interests and obligations and should communicate with all people in a clear and respectful manner. Speaking to Star Weekly last week, Cr Khan was unapologetic about the online exchange. “I wrote it, it’s my writing,” he said. “If the government have spent the money to make it an Indian cultural precinct, all I’m advocating is that it should be an Indian Cultural Precinct, not South Asian.

“Why are people changing the agenda? Because they don’t like Indians. “I’m not the one who has announced this cultural precinct, it’s the Dan Andrews government … I’ll be sending a letter to council saying how they’re confusing people by asking them about a South Asian Cultural precinct. “These people are going crazy on me and I’m not going to take any shit any more. If I say wrong, then sue me.” He vowed to sue anyone for “writing inappropriate, wrong information”. “I’ve got a screenshot, I’ll sue them,” he said.

A date with doggie fun dogs from behind the fence,” she said. “Or families could bring a picnic on weekends.” Ms Norling said she would also like to organise Christmas lunches and expeditions for dog owners and their best friends to areas such as the Altona dog beach or Werribee South beach. Ms Norling said her chow-chow Peggy Sue was writing a blog as a part of the Facebook group, which has more than 70 members. See facebook.com/groups/321981734889436/ for details. Alesha Capone

Dog owner Michelle Norling is using social media to help pooches in Wyndham meet new play pals. The Hoppers Crossing resident runs a Facebook group called Wyndham Dog Adventures. She started the group earlier this month after being frustrated when trying to find fellow Wyndham dog owners through internet apps. Through the group, pet owners are able to notify others when they are going to be at locations such as the off-leash dog area at President’s Park in Wyndham Vale. Ms Norling said the Wyndham Dog Adventures group helped dogs find play companions and provided their owners plenty of opportunities to socialise. “Even some people in the community, such as older people, who do not have much to fill their days, could come down and watch the

Sentence cut over crop house By Alesha Capone A man convicted of cultivating a commercial quantity of cannabis at a Tarneit house has had his sentence reduced. The Supreme Court of Victoria’s Court of Appeal last month heard Troy McClelland, aged in his 40s, was found guilty after a trial at the County Court in September last year. He was originally sentenced to five years’ imprisonment with a non-parole period of three years and six months.

But last month’s sentencing appeal resulted in him being re-sentenced to three years and nine months’ imprisonment with a non-parole period of two years and five months. The court heard that McClelland had been charged with cultivating a commercial quantity of cannabis at a house in Kulin Drive, Tarneit, during December, 2013. On December 30 that year, police searched the premises and found 73 cannabis plants, weighing a total of 61.488 kilograms. Three men, including McClelland, were arrested in

relation to the grow house. Police discovered the cannabis plants after a nearby resident informed one of his friends, a police constable, about “suspicious activity” at the house. During his County Court trial, McClelland said he was friends with one of the other offenders, who was arrested after police executed a search warrant. But McClelland said he did not live at the crop house and only attended the residence to purchase cannabis.

The two judges presiding over McClelland’s appeal said they accepted there was no evidence to establish he was involved with the lease or maintenance of the Kulin Drive property and that he did not own hydroponic or electrical equipment found at the site. The judges said McClelland “obviously” did not participate in the cultivation of the cannabis crop at the premises. The judges said these were among reasons why they would set aside his original penalty and impose a shorter sentence.

Reward for child care A trio of early childhood educators from the west have been recognised for their dedication to helping youngsters thrive. Jamie Swanston from Sparrow Early Learning in Tarneit and Michelle Walker from the Jindi Woraback Children’s Centre in St Albans have both been named state finalists in the Director of the Year category of the Australian Family Early Education and Care Awards. Mari De Luca of Jindi Woraback has also been announced as a finalist in the Educator of the Year category. The national award winners will be announced on June 16. Ms Swanston said she was “very honoured” to be nominated for the awards. “Being given the opportunity to educate children, watch them grow and achieve new goals is very rewarding,” she said. Ms Walker has worked at Jindi Woraback for 17 years and said she loved “being invited to

join in play by the children” in her care. Her co-worker Ms De Luca said she had been employed by Jindi Woraback for 20 years. “I feel privileged to work with children,” she said. “When I see past kinder children, that are now teenagers in the community, they approach me and still remember that I was their kinder teacher. “They remember their kinder days fondly and I am reassured I have had a positive influence in their young lives.” Alesha Capone

Grocery plan bears fruit By Charlene Macaulay A new local market where people can buy fresh fruit and vegetables for a fraction of the price sold at supermarkets will be trialled in Wyndham. The Community Grocer, a not-for-profit social enterprise that organises weekly pop-up fruit and vegetable markets in various locations, will run a three-month trial out of the Youth Resource Centre.

‘‘

There’s a need for more affordable fresh fruit and - Georgia Savage veg

’’

Community Grocer general manager Georgia Savage said in Wyndham there were 5.5 fast food outlets for every fresh food outlet, and three per cent of locals ate the recommended five serves of vegetables each day. “We target and locate the markets in areas … where there’s poor access to fresh fruit and veg,” Ms Savage said. “There’s a lot more fast-food availability than fresh food availability, so there’s a need for more affordable fresh fruit and veg. A lot of places around Wyndham are supermarkets, so there’s not a great range. “We buy our fruit and veg from the wholesale markets and we operate in a really lean way, so our costs are quite low and we’re able to bring the produce in at a really affordable price. “We find, if you compare out prices to the local supermarkets, it’s anywhere between 20-37 per cent cheaper. “Our produce comes from the wholesale market that morning, so it’s really fresh … we’re trying to meet both quality and affordability

through our markets.” The Community Grocer has been operating for a couple of years, starting out in Carlton and branching out to markets in Fawkner, Mernda and Fitzroy. The organisation is working with Wyndham council, Shoestring Gardening and the Wyndham Community and Education

Centre and will make its debut in Wyndham on August 17 from 3-6pm, and will run every Thursday after for a three-month pilot. If successful, the market will continue to run in Wyndham. For more information, go to www. thecommunitygrocer.com.au

COULD YOUR KITCHEN DO WITH A FACELIFT...AT LESS COST?

Police nab seven men in dope raids Seven men have been arrested and charged as part of a police investigation into the alleged commercial cultivation of cannabis across the west. Altona North Divisional Response Unit detectives have nabbed the men in recent weeks after a number of warrants were executed in the western suburbs. A large quantity of cannabis was also seized during the raids. Six Point Cook men were each charged with cultivation of commercial quantity of a drug of dependence, and a seventh man, whose address is unknown, was charged with cultivation of commercial quantity of a drug of dependence. All have been remanded to appear in court at a later date. Detective Inspector Steven Cooper of said police relied on the public’s help to minimise the harm caused to the community by drugs. “Results achieved during this operation are a demonstration of the commitment Victoria Police has toward ensuring our community is safe and free from the effects of illicit drugs and ensuring those engaged in the cultivation of illicit drugs are brought to justice,” he said. Anyone with further information can call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. Charlene Macaulay

Wyndham Harbour’s alluring lifestyle on full display Imagine living by the sea, with a harbour-side lifestyle and your own local beach to enjoy while the kids play during summer – that’s the lifestyle delivered by Wyndham Harbour. Wyndham Harbour management team member Nigel Sharp says a new display suite gives a real feel of life on the bay. “The suite is a great way to get a feel for the apartments,” he says. “The display showcases a full-scale kitchen and bathroom for a ‘touch and feel’ experience. “The display suite is located on-site at Wyndham Harbour, 50 Quay Boulevard, Werribee South, next to the cafe.” All apartments in The Lighthouse building have engineered timber flooring, reconstituted stone benchtops and Miele appliances in the generous kitchen area, wool carpets, and recessed downlights and LED lighting in the kitchens and bathrooms. The development has been so popular that all developer land lots sold out as of April this year and 75 per cent of the most recent and final apartment complex, The Lighthouse Building, has already sold.

18 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ JUNE 14, 2017

Nigel says that if you’ve been considering Wyndham Harbour as a place to call home, time is running out – building is due to be completed by early to mid-2018 and it is predicted apartments will be sold out before then. “Lighthouse Apartments is one of only two apartment buildings in Wyndham Harbour,” he says. “It’s a fantastic lifestyle, really. Residents can enjoy great landscape-architect designed gardens and pathways, exclusive barbecue facilities, a community garden … and you are guaranteed a minimum of one car spot per apartment.” Bayside two-bedroom apartments start from $455,000. The architecture, conceived by SJB Architects, features a striking facade designed to maximise the views of Port Phillip Bay, the marina, internal gardens or the spectacular Melbourne city skyline.

backgrounds including the South Sudanese, Indian and Burmese communities. Cr McAliney said the women would be trained to act as cross-cultural workers to support residents experiencing family violence, including new and expecting parents. Cr McAliney said between 2012 and 2016, there were more than 12,000 incidents of family violence reported to police in Wyndham. “Family violence is a serious issue that affects so many people in our community,” she said. WCEC chief executive Jennie Barrera said the centre worked with refugees through its settlement program, some of whom had experienced family violence.

Women from Wyndham’s multicultural communities will be trained to help others experiencing family violence, as part of an initiative funded by the state government. The government has provided $120,000 for the Ready, Steady, Together Partnership, which consists of Wyndham council, the Wyndham Community and Education Centre (WCEC) and Drummond Street Services. Wyndham’s safer communities spokeswoman Cr Kim McAliney said the three organisations would collaborate to create a program involving women from diverse

Ms Barrera said that while domestic violence affected all communities, people who were new to Australia sometimes did not know where to turn for help. “There are problems with access, referral and information,” she said. Ms Barrera said the Ready, Steady, Together Partnership would help to address these issues.

Raising funds with fun She said the murder mystery night would include an auction for donated items such Footy Show and MCG Sports Museum tickets and Western Bulldogs memorabilia. Ms Toner said she had organised an annual fundraising event for the BCA every year since 2013, raising about $45,000 for the organisation in the process. The BCA fundraising murder mystery night will be held on Friday, July 21, from 6.30pm. Tickets must be booked and cost $25, which covers finger food; BYO drinks. Participants can book in as teams/tables of eight or as a solo attendees. Contact Ms Toner on 0402 037 201 for details.

Raising awareness of bowel cancer is a cause close to the heart of Hoppers Crossing woman Julie Toner. She was diagnosed with the illness in 2012 at the age of 40, although she was not showing any symptoms at the time. Ms Toner said Bowel Cancer Australia (BCA) had provided her with “amazing support” during her battle with the illness. She is organising fundraising murder mystery night for BCA – it will be held next month at the Central Park Community Centre in Hoppers Crossing. Ms Toner said attendees could dress as anything related to the theme – even as zombies. “My main goal for this is for people to get tested and raise awareness, and also fundraise for Bowel Cancer Australia,” she said.

Step ahead for Diabetes Week By Charlene Macaulay It’s the invisible condition that can wreak havoc on your body if not managed properly. With National Diabetes Week coming up next month, Werribee Diabetes Support Group convener Bob Fairclough is calling on those living with the condition to take particular care of their feet. Diabetes covers a range of conditions where a higher-than-normal amount of sugar in the

blood can affect many parts of the body and, if not attended to properly, can cause nerve damage, impaired sensation and poor blood circulation in the feet. Last year alone, there were 4400 foot amputations in Australia arising from poor management of diabetes, Mr Fairclough said. “Many of these cases could have been prevented by early treatment and by choosing the proper footwear,” he said. Diabetes Victoria also recommends regular

foot checks for signs of infection, skin ulcers or cracks, or any new pain, swelling or redness. New figures from Diabetes Victoria reveal 5.8 per cent of the Wyndham population have diabetes – slightly higher than the national

average of 5.3 per cent, with type two diabetes the most common type in the area. Wyndham also has a high prevalence of gestational diabetes, with 6.8 per cent of the Wyndham population living with diabetes being diagnosed while pregnant. The national average is 2.2 per cent. The Werribee Diabetes Support Group meets at the Kelly Park Centre, 2b Synnot Street, Werribee, at 10am every second Friday of the month. Visitors are welcome.

Attention of the centre Not much gets past Wyndham Community and Education Centre chief executive Jennie Barrera. So when her colleagues managed to pull off a surprise presentation to award her a life membership – complete with her family sitting in the audience – Ms Barrera was beside herself. “It was so exciting. It’s the highest honour that the organisation can bestow on you, and that’s fabulous,” she said. “It was completely unexpected.” Ms Barrera has been part of the centre for the past 24 years, first as an English as a second language teacher, then holding roles as a co-ordinator and manager before taking on the top job 10 years ago. Tens of thousands of students have been through the doors in that time, as well as thousands of newly arrived refugees needing help with settlement services. Ms Barrera said the centre becoming registered as a senior secondary provider and

working with refugees were among her biggest achievements. “There’s always something to be done, there’s always a program or people who need something,” she said. “A lot of people come to us in a fairly disadvantaged or desperate state, and we help to get them back on track … they work really hard and it’s good to see the good news story that comes out at the end.” Centre president Pauline Anderson said the life membership was well-deserved. “She’s done so much for the organisation,” Ms Anderson said. “She’s got an incredible work ethic and sets a very high standard for herself, and expects everyone to live to that standard as well, which raises the standard of the whole organisation.” Charlene Macaulay Jennie Barrera was awarded with a life membership.

Brigades take command By Charlene Macaulay Fire brigades across Wyndham and Melton are getting help with their response capabilities. The Mount Cottrell Group of the CFA has received its own field command vehicle to help incident management teams with the setting up of command and control arrangements. The $44,000 vehicle – purchased through fundraising among the brigades and the Volunteer Emergency Services equipment grant program – is fitted with communications gear and lights and sirens for quick responses,

as well as a number of other features. The Mount Cottrell Group includes 11 fire brigades from Wyndham and Melton and one coastguard flotilla and is the busiest within Victoria’s District 14. The group’s brigades respond to about 4000 incidents each year. A spokeswoman for the Country Fire Authority said four brigades within the Mount Cottrell group would soon undertake emergency medical response training, which will mean a significant increase in the number of incidents they attend.

Lifetime honour for Tiger stalwart Rick Wolany has received the Werribee Football Club’s top honour – life membership. Mr Wolany, OAM, was bestowed the honour recently for his ongoing contributions to the club. He spent 10 years as Werribee Football Club’s major sponsor and was instrumental in stopping the club being kicked out of the VFL in 1995. Tigers president Martin Carter lauded Mr Wolany’s contribution to the club. “As a Werribee Football Club board member and sports club president during Rick’s decade of unparalleled support, I saw first-hand Rick’s contribution, not only financially, but behind the scenes as a boxing coach and mentor to our young leadership group,” Mr Carter said. “He was an integral part of our success.” Charlene Macaulay

Plans afoot for Point Cook The Victorian Planning Authority is about to begin preparing a precinct structure plan for a part of Point Cook. The authority, also known as the VPA, is a state government organisation which helps to plan housing and infrastructure. The VPA’s website announced pre-planning for the Aviator Fields precinct structure plan (PSP), in Point Cook, will start this month or July. The Aviator Fields area covers 413 hectares bounded by Point Cook Road, Aviation Road, Hacketts Road and a housing development to the north. The land is located about 1.5 kilometres from to the Point Cook Coastal Park and includes two large wetlands. The VPA website stated the site had been identified as “suitable for mostly residential uses”, by a committee which advised the Minister for Planning on areas proposed for inclusion within the Urban Growth Boundary. The website also said the committee had recommended that “significant areas” of the Aviator Fields PSP should be set aside for conservation and stormwater management. The VPA said it would work with Wyndham Council and other stakeholders to prepare the PSP. A biodiversity assessment will also be carried out to determine the area’s conservation values.

MY WYNDHAM How long have you lived in Tarneit? Ten years. What do you like most about the suburb? It’s a nice, quiet area on the outskirts of town. It’s very easy to travel to other locations and the city, so if you want to go anywhere, it’s nice and close. The only downside is that all my family, and many of my friends, live in the eastern suburbs.

(Damjan Janevski)

Tarneit’s Trevor Walsh qualifed as a hatha yoga teacher while studying for a masters degree – focused on yoga. He now runs a business called Be Wise Yoga. He talks with Alesha Capone.

What originally attracted you to live in Wyndham? My wife comes from the western suburbs, she is originally from Altona. She grew up around there and spent many years there. What are some of your favourite places in Wyndham? There are so many great areas, including the beach. The Riverbend Historical Park is really nice, down by the Italian Social Club and down by Werribee South, on a day with nice weather. Werribee Mansion is also very nice. I haven’t been down there for awhile, but last year we ran a ‘Yoga at the Mansion’ program for the month of April. That was great, we had around 30 or 40 people at each session. People like doing healthy things in a natural setting. The Werribee South beach is the most popular place we have run outdoor classes.

Mr. Alexander Thomas (Lex) Cameron, president of Werribee Shire Centre for Mentally Retarded Children has been judged Werribee’s Citizen of the Year. He has been a tireless worker for the centre as a committee member, vice-president and now-president, since planning for the centre began in 1972.

“I had to sit outside the subway and scab money for food. After a couple of hours I’d got four dollars so I bought fish and chips for lunch.” That’s part of the sad tale of a 16-year-old homeless girl, Pat, who calls the streets of Werribee her home.

A row is set to erupt following moves to establish an adult sex bookshop in Werribee’s central business district. Footscray resident Ms Sue Peran advertised her application to set up the Fantasy Lane Adult Products retail outlet at 34 Station Street last Wednesday.

After decades of long delays and frustrating traffic jams, a new lobby group has formed in a bid to fix one of Werribee’s most notorious intersections. During the morning peak periods, the boom gates at the level crossing at the corner Werribee and Cottrell streets can be closed for 13½ minutes an hour, causing regular gridlock.

Soak up the variety of island Oahu is home to much more than Waikiki’s ‘Gold Coast’, as Alexandra Laskie discovers.

Council has recently had a record number of submissions on our Draft Integrated Budget and City Plan and will make final decisions on these at our next meeting. Councillors are delighted with the number of submissions we’ve received. I think this reflects the fact residents feel they can influence our decisions and growing community satisfaction with our community engagement. The range of ideas, views and requests tells me locals relate to a diverse range of services or advocacy that Council gets involved in. The range of submissions cover the presentation of public areas including rubbish; road projects and repairs; ideas to alleviate the impacts of congestion; improved local parks, walking paths and tree planting. More libraries, community centres and sports facilities; encouraging more industrial estates near new developments; protecting the Green Wedge and Werribee South agricultural uses; better services for older people as well as people with disability; more funding for economic growth and job activities and Council advocating to the State Government for more police numbers and stations. If you’re interested in our final decisions, come along to our next meeting at 7pm on Monday June 27 or watch the meeting streamed live by searching for Council Meetings at www.wyndham.vic.gov.au Regards, Henry Barlow.

Thousands of travellers land at Honolulu and make a beeline for Waikiki to shack-up at a hotel for their entire Hawaiian sojourn. Considering the cost of hiring a car and, for Australian tourists, the mental hurdle of driving on the right-hand-side of the road, this approach makes sense. But to fall in love with diamond-shaped Oahu, Hawaii’s third largest island and home to the state capitol, Honolulu, you need a car. And the popular choice among holidaymakers appears to be a sexy, convertible Ford Mustang. Maybe it’s got to do with the “When in Rome” philosophy. Whatever it is, they dominate Honolulu airport’s hire carpark and they really are a lot of fun. Getting around the city is relatively easy, outside of evening peak hours. But be warned, rush hour traffic in Honolulu is the third worst in the US, according to locals. The Kalanianaole Highway takes drivers from Waikiki to the island’s beautiful beaches along the south-east coast. Within half an hour you’ll arrive at Sandy Beach, with its shore dumpers, turquoise waters and food trucks serving ahi poke – diced fresh tuna sashimi on rice with “special sauce”. Hanauma Bay is nearby. It’s incredibly popular with tourists owing to its photogenic crescent-shaped bay, first glimpsed from high above on a cliff. But you have to get there early to secure a car spot, because once the carpark is full, the beach is closed to fresh tourists for the rest of the day. For years it was one of the most visited beaches in Hawaii, but it became a victim of its own beauty. The reef’s deterioration finally led

authorities to intervene, first with a smoking ban in 1995 and then, in 1997, a visitor fee was introduced to pay for beach maintenance, environmental studies and education programs. Beaches farther along the coastline are just as beautiful, albeit without the reef. A trip to the island wouldn’t be complete

without checking out North Shore, known for its laid-back vibe and massive swells only the likes of Kelly Slater can conquer. To get there from Waikiki, head towards Pearl City (H1), then take the H2, and then follow the signs towards Haleiwa, North Shore’s shopping hub. This little town is lined with plantation-era

timber buildings painted in bright colours. It’s a good stop for lunch – people line up for a plate of garlic and butter-sautéed shrimp from trucks packed on the south side of the town, or for a shave ice at Matsumoto’s. To see the swells, keep heading north to the famed Banzai Pipeline, or “Pipeline” to locals, where the average wave is about three metres.

Turtle Bay Resort has a reputation as one of Oahu’s best hotels. It sits on prime real estate, with direct access to bay and surf beaches. There are two golf courses on site, two pools, tennis courts and six restaurants. If you want to wake up listening to the sounds of gentle waves, book a beach cottage. The only obstacles between you and the sand will be a few scattered

palm trees and hammocks. Waikiki’s “Gold Coast” feel may not appeal to everyone, but the neighbourhood has the widest range of options when it comes to hotels, eating out and shopping. One of the newest additions to the hotel scene in Waikiki is Surfjack Hotel. It’s housed in a 1960s Modernist building that has been

refurbished and incorporates the best design elements of the era and North Shore beach culture. You won’t find it along Waikiki’s bustling beach strip, but a few blocks back in sleepy Lewers Street. It provides a welcome respite from the hordes of tourists. Whoever designed the pool had Instagram in mind. Mosaic tiles spell out, “Wish you were here” – surely a photo many guests have snapped from their balconies and sent to someone back home. One of the island’s best-loved chefs, Ed Kenney, heads the in-house restaurant Mahina & Sun’s, which serves inventive dishes such as skipjack tuna risotto using locally sourced and organic produce. Mr Kenny’s three other Honolulu establishments have almost taken over an intersection in Kaimuki, a sleepy residential neighbourhood a 10-minute drive from Waikiki. He’s made this spot a great place to come for breakfast (Kaimuki Suprette) or dinner (Mud Hen Water or Town). His style of food celebrates local Hawaiian cuisine. If dining at Mud Hen Water, the poi is a must. It’s made by pounding baked and fermented taro root until it turns into a watery paste. It’s a staple of most Hawaiian diets and is often eaten with rice. Rumour has it that the Obama family has purchased a holiday house on the island. If it’s good enough for a former president, it should be good enough for the rest of us.

Storytime Comes to Life at Williams Landing with free books to local homes and schools… In the first week of the July school holidays Williams Landing Shopping Centre will formally launch their new “Kids’ Crew Club’. This new initiative caters for toddlers to age 7, with the primary goal being to ‘make reading a fun experience for families’. There is also a built in reward system for each child to achieve the goal of attaining a storybook to donate to their kinder or school, simultaneously receiving a copy of the same storybook to take home. ‘Reading to our children is one of the most beneficial things we can do for them as parents and carers. The act of sitting down, relaxing, and allowing our imaginations to be introduced to a good tale or two is meditative, creative, intimate and incredibly educational,’ says Williams Landing’s marketing consultant, Toni Smith. The kid’s crew’s ‘Storytime Comes to Life’ will continue as a regular weekly, morning reading program throughout 2017. These morning sessions will be followed by a simple craft activity based around the story being told. Thus, this new initiative is called “ Storytime Comes to Life”. When the children join our “Williams Landing kids Crew, they receive a ‘Crew Pass ”, encased with a plastic sleeve along with a special Williams Landing Kids Crew Lanyard. The Crew Pass should ideally be taken to each storytime session, where it is stamped with a dragon fly sticker by our storyteller every visit. When the child has accumulated 4 stickers, we send a storybook, (chosen by the child from our Kids Crew booklist), to the family’s nominated kindergarten or primary school, with a label on the inside cover stating that the book was donated by that child. The child will also receive a copy of the same storybook to take home, when they come back for their 5th session.

STORYTIME COMES TO LIFE AT WILLIAMS LANDING With Australian Children’s author Nicole Kelly!

“We hope to donate as many books as possible to our local kindergartens and primary schools over the next year and forever! After all, reading is one thing that has not yet been superseded! Even the digital entertainment platforms require children to read!” The “Peanut Monkey” Children’s book series will be showcased this school holidays, with a special visit and book signing from Nicole Kelly, author of the series. Nicole will be storytelling from Thursday to Saturday, July 6th to 8th, with book purchases available from Williams Landing Lotto for book signing. As a growing community hub for our Williams Landing Residents, Williams Landing Shopping Centre has clear objectives in building and sustaining relationships with local community groups. To be able to assist our local kindergartens and primary schools as well as encourage and foster altruism and community involvement at a young age, is where we begin to build solid foundations for our residents.

Listen to the 14 cheeky adventures of Peanut Monkey, followed by our free

‘Storytime Comes To Life’, will be kicking off Monday at 11am, July 3rd, with a week-long introduction to this ongoing activity. After the school holidays the centre will offer free morning storytelling sessions on a weekly basis from 10am to midday each Wednesday. The sessions will be geared to cater for toddlers but will be enjoyed by parents and guardians alike.

Kids Creation Station where they can bring the stories to life!

Monday 3 July to Saturday 8 July, 11am to 2pm daily

The second week of our holidays, Monday to Friday, Williams Landing will be conducting free cooking classes for the kids, where fun mingles with nutrition. Children even get to make their own packaging for their creations!

Bonus Kids Krew Stickers!

‘Kids Crew’ members will share in many other special activities throughout the year and their parents will be notified by email of ‘What’s News for the Crew?’ at Williams Landing. The focus will primarily be on community and education, and our local area has so much to explore and to get involved with on that plane (excuse the pun), it’s exciting!

Bring along your Williams

We’re basically looking forward to the continuing growth of our Williams Landing Community and hoping that they enjoy sharing our growth as their local destination shopping centre.

Breaking bad behaviour in dogs All too regularly, we hear about dogs behaving badly. Ranging from barking and destructiveness to attacks on pets or even people, behaviour problems are a serious and emotional issue. While there are no quick-fix answers in cases of such behaviour, there are many ways your vet can help. The best start is to choose a pet to suit your family and your lifestyle. Your vet team can recommend a suitable breed. Next, enrol your new addition into puppy school, where basic training and socialisation can begin at six to 12 weeks. Follow this up with dog obedience classes and training at home to maintain good manners. Remember that all dog breeds require plenty of exercise to prevent boredom, while a great range of toys and treats are available to keep pets stimulated.

HOPPERS CROSSING VETERINARY CLINIC & HOSPITAL

Medications are available to aid with behaviour issues but are best used in conjunction with referral to a behaviour specialist or qualified trainer. As with any medical problem, it is best to discuss your pet behaviour concerns with your vet sooner rather than later.

Desexing, especially in male dogs, can help lessen bad behaviour such as roaming and aggression. Doggy day care and calming collars can also help with pets who don’t like being left alone.

We welcome the opportunity to serve all your pet’s needs including medical, surgical, grooming, puppy parties and behavioural problems.

Palm Lake is just the place for a life of luxury As people hit their 50s, thoughts begin to turn to the next lifestyle stages, such as becoming empty-nesters and, further down the track, the retirement years. Some couples don’t want to rattle around – and maintain – a big house when the kids leave, nor want a large, attention-hungry garden to worry about while travelling, which they may now they have the means and freedom to pursue. Palm Lake Resort Truganina is designed for such people – those who want the benefits of downsizing or an active retirement in a five-star lifestyle community. The resort is a place that welcomes you back from your latest cruise or overseas adventure, with gardens looking lush, home secure and a meal to be had in the Paradise Palms Clubhouse bistro. Of course, for people who are just as happy to “play” around the resort, there’s no shortage of home-grown fun, with activities ranging from upbeat to relaxed. The indoor heated pool, spa and sauna is fab for a morning swim or to get into aqua aerobic classes. Maintaining fitness is also catered for with a gym, Pilates classes and yoga, as well as ballroom and line dancing activities which get extra ticks for being a fun way to socialise. There’s an undercover bowling green, bocce games, table tennis, mini and virtual golf, arts and craft classes, carpet bowls, bingo, darts, pool and snooker. And that only counts some of the perks. Another is the luxury 49-seat cinema – relaxation central, plus great for the visiting grandchildren. The social club organises excursions in the resort’s bus, with a weekly shopping trip an always popular fixture. Palm Lake Resort has no entry fees or stamp duty when you move in, there are no council rates to pay and use of all facilities is unlimited. You also keep 100 per cent of any capital gain. Only seven homes remain in the final release, with well-priced two- and three-bedroom designs available. For a personal tour of the resort or more information, call 1800 686 096.

Caring hands in a community setting Manor Court Werribee has been trusted by the local community for more than 37 years to provide an ‘Ageing in Place’ lifestyle for permanent and high/low respite residents. Manor Court – fully accredited by the Australian Aged Care Quality Agency – is a modern, multi-cultural residence, positioned within a leisurely stroll of a train station, shopping precinct and numerous bus stops. Managing director Ross Smith says Manor Court was one of the first aged care residencies to adopt Continuous Quality Improvement policies and practises. “Our established team of registered nurses, including registered division 1 nurse Kerry Bailey, are on call all hours and pride themselves on providing high-quality clinical care guided by all relevant standards,” Mr Smith says. “Just as a family provides a safe environment for loved ones to reach their full potential, so too does Manor Court inspire a comfortable kinship atmosphere in which residents enjoy a fulfilling and rewarding life. Our dedicated lifestyle team continues to introduce new programs and activities tailored to individual needs.” Using established community links, the lifestyle team focuses on physical, social, emotional and spatial needs to increase wellbeing and a strong sense of community belonging. “Manor Court is a community-owned, not-for-profit entity which means any surplus funds are invested into the business for the direct benefit of residents and their families. The strong connection with community organisations assists in providing a variety of high-quality health care services.” Mr Smith and Ms Bailey, who lead a team of registered nurses and an experienced management team, say their combined expertise reinforces their already recognised name in the community. This highly credentialed team takes care of all clinical needs, in conjunction with residents’ personal GPs, families and other relevant health professionals. “Care plans are introduced to ensure that all employees involved in caring for residents needs are completely informed and accountable for the care that is given. They also enable Manor Court to monitor ongoing health and are proactive in providing appropriate intervention where necessary.” Manor Court Werribee Aged Care, 5 Hogan Grove, Werribee.

Bringing luxury and lifestyle to the very heart of Werribee “The council has a new vision for Werribee, one we are excited to share.” Watergum on the Park director Ori Salvalaggio is explaining the brand new luxury low-rise apartment development – one of the first in a new style of community-focused lifestyle properties set to be rolled out in central Werribee. The team at Watergum on the Park worked closely with Wyndham council to bring about a vision in line with the Werribee City Structure Plan (2013). Watergum on the Park is part of the council’s larger vision to make the area known as the “Capital of Melbourne’s New West”. “[The vision] is to transform it into a Southbank-style residential centre. They want to utilise the river and the views and encourage that kind of lifestyle,” Ori says. “Watergum on the Park is introducing a bit of luxury living into the heart of Werribee within a tranquil setting.” Pre-sales have opened to the public after an extensive development stage to ensure a focus on lifestyle and creating spaces that will appeal to families, professional couples and down-sizers. Opposite the river and Chirnside Park, Watergum on the Park is a four-level luxury apartment complex consisting of 41 residences with one, two or three bedrooms. Every apartment will have an underground carpark on title, with the twoand three-bedroom apartments allocated two carparks. With a focus on design and finishings, the apartments range in price from $340,000 for single-room apartments and up to $605,000 for three-bedroom apartments with a full suite of extras.

Watergum on the Park: Bringing luxury living to Werribee central with various designs and colour schemes. (Pictures: Supplied)

“We have created residences with a focus on luxury finishes and a sense of space,” Ori says. “The living rooms, for example, are larger than usual for an apartment, the bedrooms are well proportioned and we made sure access to local amenities was within

walking distance to encourage families into the area. “For example, the train station is nearby and there are cafes and sporting clubs close, too. “The ground-floor apartments have courtyards, and some of the larger

apartments have over-sized balconies with beautiful views of the park and the trees that line the banks of the river.” Watergum on the Park, 10-14 Watergum Court, Werribee. Inquiries: www.watergum.com.au

DEAR heart of Jesus, in the past I have asked for many favours. This time I ask you, this very special one (mentioned favour). Take it, the dear heart of Jesus, and place it with your own broken heart, where your father sees it. Then in his merciful eyes, it will become your favour, not mine. Amen. Say for three days, promise publication, and your favour will be granted.

SPORT Goals galore as Reds retain top spot It was important win for Hoppers Crossing, as it keeps it a point clear of second-placed Altona City. The Reds’ superior goal difference, however, was erased on Saturday when City slaughtered Diamond Valley United 8-0. But holding top spot is in Hoppers Crossing’s hands ahead of a trip to lowly Moreland United, which has just one win for the campaign. In state league 4, Point Cook Jets and Altona North were involved in a six-goal thriller, the game finishing 3-3 at Saltwater Reserve. The Jets will be disappointed not to have secured all three points on home soil – the loss cost them a share of top spot on the ladder. Zac Osborne scored two goals for the Jets, taking his tally to six in 11 games, while Kyle Caruana scored the other. Point Cook will host Surf Coast in a top-four blockbuster at Saltwater Reserve on Saturday. Truganina Hornets had to settle for a 0-0 draw with Golden Plains at Bannockburn

Recreation Precinct. The Hornets, sitting third last, will face another relegation-threatened side, Newmarket Phoenix, in a huge game at Newmarket Reserve on Saturday. In women’s state league 3, Mylene Deschamps scored on debut for Hoppers Crossing in a 7-0 annihilation of Maribyrnong Swifts at Grange Reserve on Sunday. Deschamps, a France futsal international, was the Reds’ major signing of the transfer window. The main star of the show, though, was striker Julia Budiongo-Batota, who finished with four goals to make it nine for her in seven games. In men’s NPL2 west, Werribee City and Sunshine George Cross played out a 1-1 draw at Galvin Park on Sunday. Bees new recruit George Slefendorfas scored in the 34th minute, but that was cancelled out by Georgies new signing Yosuke Saito in the 63rd minute. Lance Jenkinson

Jumping at the chance By Lance Jenkinson Three years after basically stumbling across pole vault, Nick Masini is on the verge of representing Australia at international competition. The Western Athletics young gun had never seriously considered a career in pole vault, but a chance competition got him hooked on the event. “One weekend, my team needed points to make it to the finals and we didn’t have anybody to compete in the pole vault,” Masini said. “I just decided to learn it for that and then I really enjoyed it, so I kept on going. “I didn’t expect anything out of it, I was hoping for the basics and to learn something new, but after a few sessions and one of the competitions, the coach said you’ve qualified for nationals.” Masini is so strong in the event that he now dreams of pulling on the green and gold at the Olympic Games. The 18-year-old has more immediate duties to take care of though, heading to the IAAF Oceania Melanesian Regional Athletics Championships to take on the best vaulters in the region. Masini leaves for Suva, Fiji, on June 24, for his first time representing Australia. It will be his second time in overseas competition, having been part of a Maribyrnong College contingent that was invited to the Simplot Games in the US. “It’s really exciting – I’m really keen to get there,” Masini said. “I’m hoping to get experience competing for Australia most of all and see how I go in overseas competition. “I’m hoping to clear a bar and get a PB if possible.” Masini’s best result in pole vault came in the national championships. The Seabrook resident finished just outside the medals in fourth, but it validated the belief in him by Warren Hill, a specialist pole vault coach based at Melbourne University. “He’s basically built me from the ground up,” Masini said. Masini, who idolises Australian pole vaulter Steve Hooker and former Chicago Bulls superstar Michael Jordan, will be taking a bit of a trip to the unknown when he lands in Suva. He knows next to nothing about his competitors, he will be relying on a pole that is provided by organisers and has little knowledge of the track conditions he will face. What Masini does know is how lucky he is to be representing his country. “It’s going to be an enormous honour for me, being my first time in the green and gold.” 78 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ JUNE 14, 2017

IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ Spotswood Football Club recently marked its 90th anniversary with a fitting celebration at the Williamstown Town Hall. Club stalwart Tony Walshe held sway with an entertaining speech outlining the history of the club and the many traditions of the Woodsmen. Any club boasting 90 years can be proud of its survival but Spotty has success that all envy: 16 senior flags, 64 reserves and junior premierships, a Brownlow Medallist (Fred Goldsmith) and over a hundred players who have played at either VFL or AFL level. Current AFL stars Callan Ward and Bachar Houli proudly wore the green and gold of Spotswood and future star Lachlan Fogarty looms as the next star to emerge from McLean Reserve. One of the more staggering statistics of the history of the club is that in 90 years it has only had 18 presidents. 2017 looks to be another good year for the Woodsmen with their senior team blossoming under Anthony Eames, a former junior returning to take the club into its next phase of success. ■ Ronnie Simmons is only 10 years younger than Spotswood and the fitness fanatic is, as always, in great shape. The local who’s who of sport in the west turned out for Ron’s 80th birthday recently in Altona. Ronnie is probably best known as runner for the Footscray Bulldogs where he is a life member, but his help and guidance to many of the sports stars of the west over the years has been and will be his legacy. You would never meet a more humble human being than Ron, who was really touched by the turn up at his 80th. Bulldog stars of the past like Kelvin Templeton, Brad Hardie, Peter Welsh, Terry Wheeler, Rick Kennedy, Gordon Casey and Ross Abbey (to name a few) gathered to mark the milestone. Ron is a man of few words - always has been, always will be but his actions have always spoken volumes. ■ The changing faces at the WRFL continue with the resignation of Tim Shellcott from Football Operations Manager after a relative short time in the position. Tim has been at league headquarters for more than six years but less than a year in this role having taken over from David Newton. Tim finishes at the end of the month and along with David Newton, former CEO Bob Tregear and long time radio caller Steve Thom all moving on in recent months, the league is getting a new look under CEO Matthew Duck.

Hoppers Crossing emerged with a 5-3 victory over Fitzroy City after a wild game on the road at Fairfield Park in the Football Federation Victoria men’s state league 2 on Saturday. The Reds went behind on three occasions in the first half, but fought back each time to have the score 3-3 at half-time. The first two equalisers were scored by striker Darryl Roach, a new recruit playing in his first game for the Reds. Roach, a former Montserrat international and Milton Keynes Dons player, struck two goals six minutes apart. The next equaliser came just before the break through James Daley. It did not take long in the second half for Hoppers Crossing to take a lead it preserved until the final whistle. Daniel Sweeney, who scored a double a week earlier, found the back of the net again for the go-ahead goal in the 61st minute. Kwaku Dade gave the Reds an insurance goal a minute before stoppage time.

Vic Metro honour a handy marker for a Jet on the rise Late-blooming Western Jets ruck-forward Tristan Xerri is ecstatic after being selected to represent Vic Metro in the AFL under-18 national championships. Xerri, a product of Caroline Springs in the Western Region Football League, was so far off the radar three years ago that he was not considering a football career, let alone pulling on the Big V. “A few years ago, I was barely around the Jets or anything – I didn’t see this coming at all,” he said. “All throughout my juniors, I was never really going anywhere with my footy, but then I had a good season and had a call-up late [to the Jets squad]. “I’ve been lucky enough to play a few games with the Jets and had a good season [in the TAC Cup] last year. It means so much to be in the [Vic Metro] team – I’m rapt to be a part of it.” Growing up in Caroline Springs, Xerri had more envisaged a career in cricket. But as he started to fill out into his 202-centimetre, 95-kilogram frame, it became clear that football was where his talents lay.

Last season, Xerri announced himself with the Jets in the TAC Cup, before playing a pivotal role for Caroline Springs in its barnstorming run to the WRFL division 2 premiership. Much of Xerri’s development as a footballer and athlete can be attributed to his time with Lakeview Senior College. The 18-year-old is part of the college’s elite sports football program, which allows him to combine studies and football. Scott Korczynski, the program coach and coach of Caroline Springs, has been a major influence for Xerri. “It’s great, three days of the week being involved in the program,” Xerri said. “You get a weights program, work on your skills and you’re touching the footy every day. “Since I’ve been doing the program with him, my footy has definitely improved. Scott gave me the opportunity last year to play a couple of senior games for Caroline Springs and we ended up winning the flag in the seniors. “He’s had a huge impact throughout school and local footy and putting my name out there.”

Xerri’s selection for Vic Metro was all but confirmed when he produced a dazzling display in a trial game against Vic Country. It was in that game that Xerri truly came to believe he belonged. “That was huge for me,” he said. “Taking that first grab early in the game and slotting a goal, that probably lifted my confidence.

“I’m a bit of a confidence player – when I get one early, I just play off that.” Xerri’s great strengths are his contested marking and his versatility. He wants to develop into a modern day ruck-forward, splitting time between the ruck and key forward roles. It is a role that former AFL star Brad Ottens, an assistant coach for Vic Metro, played for Geelong and Richmond in his playing days, so Xerri is learning from the best. “I definitely want to impact the scoreboard, but at the same time doing my work around the ground and in the ruck,” he said. Xerri, one of four Western Jets in the Vic Metro squad along with Buku Khamis, Cameron Rayner and Lachlan Fogarty, is hoping to earn a starting role for the championship opener against WA at Domain Stadium on Sunday. “Playing against the best is all you can ask for,” he said. “That will be a great experience.” Lance Jenkinson

Young hoop leads by example By Lance Jenkinson Paul Tsapatolis is more than just the dominant centre that will lead Vic Metro’s title defence at the under-16 national basketball championships in Perth next month. Tsapatolis can be just as proud of his achievements off the court as he is with his basketball form on it - and that tells you all you need to know about his character. The 14-year-old from Point Cook is the stand out basketballer in his age group in Victoria, hence him being named captain of Vic Metro, but he is also a leader on and off the court and switched on academically in year nine at Maribyrnong College. That’s why Basketball Victoria awarded Tsapatolis with the honour of young athlete of the year for 2016. “It was a very big surprise,” he said. “When they announced my name, I had the biggest shock. “It’s about me collective as a person, as much as on the basketball court. “Coaches don’t just speak about on the court, they talk about off the court and how you communicate, what you do on your off days, do you do homework or do you party. “It’s the biggest award that I’ve had.” Tsapatolis will be a major presence for Vic Metro at the nationals. It is hard not to be when you stand at 205 centimetres, about six-foot-eight in the old language, at the age of just 14. Tsapatolis knows that height alone is not enough in modern basketball, so he is working tirelessly to evolve into a do-it-all modern day centre. “With the centres in this generation, it’s not like back then with [former NBA great] Shaquille O’Neal, where you had to be big and dunk over anyone and just rebound and you don’t have to shoot,” Tsapatolis said. “Now it’s a lot like [current NBA stars] DeMarcus Cousins and Marc Gasol, especially the European centres, they can do everything, they pass, dribble, rebound, score, shoot threes and have to be as much as a guard as a centre.” Tsapatolis will relish the chance to captain Vic Metro. He was part of the gold medal-winning under-16 Big V team last year - the first bottom-age player to take to the court for that team since top NBA draft pick Ben Simmons. Already, Tsapatolis’s leadership has shone through, as teammates pick his brain for information leading up to this year’s tournament, starting on July 8. “To make it again and be captain is even better as it means I’m going on the right path,” Tsapatolis said. “The players will come to me and ask what it was like last year and what they should do off court to prepare.

Paul Tsapatolis has a massive future ahead in basketball. (Damjan Janevski)

“They ask for advice from what I picked up last year.” Tsapatolis has already spent time at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra. He is hoping to land a full time position at the AIS down the track. Of more immediate concern is to perform for Vic Metro, which is sure to be attended by basketball scouts from Australia and beyond. “If the under-16s nationals work out well and I do dominate, I presume I’ll get offers from AIS coaches,” Tsapatolis said. “There’s always scouts, Australian coaches come down and people live stream stats and watch the games.

“If you dominate this year, it means you are the best in your age group in Australia, so then Australia tryouts will come up, where you’re competing against the age above.” While the dream of Australian under-age representation and ultimately a professional basketball career is what Tsapatolis is striving for, he is quick to point out that he still has four years left as a junior and intends on using every minute to refine his game before taking the next steps. He loves going to work every day in the Maribyrnong College’s athlete development program, and feels blessed to work with a host of coaches both inside and outside of the

program, including Brian Vaughns, Shane McDonald, Ash Arnott, Andy Lim, Dom Linossier, Warwick Giddey, Phillip Dernehl and long time mentor Peter Fleming. “I do appreciate all their help,” Tsapatolis said. Tsapatolis is the June nominee of the Deeble Deeble Rising Star Award. The award, hosted by the Sunshine Western Region Sports Club and Star Weekly, recognises young athletes from the western suburbs who have achieved outstanding results at state and/ or national levels. Tsapatolis will receive $1000, donated by the Yarraville Club Cricket Club, and other prizes to assist him in achieving his sports goals. 79 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ JUNE 14, 2017
