Dancing to own beat
(Marco De Luca)
Students from Hoppers Crossing Secondary College, including Luke, Cassidy, Tamsyn and Min (pictured), will star in the Victorian State Schools Spectacular next month. They will join more than 3000 students on stage for two shows at the Hisense Arena. Sisters Cassidy and Tamsyn, who are in different year levels at the college, said they were both thrilled to be a part of the Schools Spectacular. The college’s State Schools Spectacular co-ordinator Kate Elmer said the school’s students would take part in a feature dance during the spectacular. “We believe this is an invaluable opportunity for our students, with them being one of the only whole school groups to dance on the main stage and the only group to create their own choreography,” Ms Elmer said. The Schools Spectacular will be held at 1pm and 6.30pm on Saturday September 16. Tickets: Adult $40, concession $30, under-15s $20 (plus booking fee).

Khan faces nine charges By Charlene Macaulay Wyndham councillor Intaj Khan has been charged with nine offences for failing to disclose all his business and property interests in his register of interest returns. The Local Government Investigations and Compliance Inspectorate last week announced Cr Khan had been charged with three counts of failing to disclose companies in which he held office during the return period; three counts of failing to disclose companies in which he held a financial interest; two counts of failing to submit ordinary returns; and one count of failing to disclose property holdings. The charges relate to returns filed between February, 2016, and February, 2017.
Cr Khan will front Werribee Magistrate’s Court on September 27 for an initial hearing. If found guilty of all nine charges, he could face fines of more than $85,000. The Local Government Act 1989 requires individual councillors to lodge returns – which detail property holdings, board positions and the like – every six months while they are in office. This is to ensure councillors declare any conflicts of interest. Speaking exclusively to Star Weekly last week, Cr Khan questioned why the matter needed to be heard in court. He said the council should have issued him with reminders in the lead-up to return deadlines. But former councillors Marie Brittan and Glenn Goodfellow, who served alongside
Cr Khan during the previous council’s term, said council staff gave councillors several reminders. Cr Khan is likely to retain his position as a councillor even if convicted of the charges. Section 29 of the Local Government Act, which details grounds for disqualification, does not include disqualification for a councillor convicted of breaching section 81 of the act, which relates to the filing of returns. Many residents took to the Wyndham Star Weekly Facebook last week calling for Cr Khan to be suspended or stood down. Colin wrote: “It’s an absolute disgrace that he is allowed to remain an elected member of the council.” Chief municipal inspector David Wolf
said this matter was separate to the recent interviews conducted by the inspectorate with the majority of candidates in the 2016 Wyndham council election. A report into that investigation is expected in coming weeks. “The inspectorate has additional matters in the final stages of investigation, which will conclude shortly. These matters do not relate to the elected councillors,” he said. Wyndham chief executive Kelly Grigsby said the council would continue to work with the inspectorate. “All of the charges relate to matters for which each individual councillor has responsibility,” she said. ■ Q&A

Man assaulted metres from home By Alesha Capone
His finger was also broken. Neighbourhood Watch Tarneit Central spokesman Sanjay Sethi said people in the area were “angry and worried” about the frequency of robberies occurring in their suburb. “People are saying, ‘How can we protect ourselves?’ ” Mr Sethi said. “We are really concerned, as it could be anyone who becomes a victim.” Senior Sergeant Matt Noy from the Wyndham Crime Investigation Unit said police were investigating the robbery.

A Tarneit father was robbed and assaulted in the street just two doors away from his home earlier this month. The man – who asked to be referred to as “Mr Singh” – said he went for a walk about 5.15pm on August 12. Mr Singh said he noticed a group of four youths sitting in a park while on his walk, but thought nothing of it – even when they began following him. He said he returned to his street, Loretta Boulevard, about 7pm and the youths “suddenly” attacked him.
“I was just two doors away from my home, when one of the guys snatched the phone from my hand,” he said. Mr Singh said he was hit in the face, pushed from behind and fell onto the footpath. “All four started kicking and punching me,” he said. “Blood was running down from my eyebrow.” Mr Singh said the youths, who looked like they were aged between 14 and 16, ran away. He said he went to the nearby home of a friend, who took him to the Wyndham North police station to report the crime. Mr Singh later sought medical attention. The gash near his eye required three stitches.

In the past decade, Jones has invited artists from around the world to create artworks and shows at the house, mostly centred around ecology. Jones said that parts of the house would soon arrive in Werribee for an exhibition to be held at the Wyndham Art Gallery. From August 30 to October 29, gallery visitors will be able to view Watford in Werribee, which will also include flower-arranging by women from Avoca.

Thievery tip to Truganina crop house Wyndham police uncovered a Truganina crop house last week after thieves raided the house and stole a large amount of mature cannabis plants. Police attended the Rigby Court property on Wednesday morning following a triple-0 call about the front door to the property being wide open. When police went to investigate, they found the front door had been kicked in and discovered a hydroponic cannabis-growing operation in three rooms of the house. Senior Constable Madeline Gillard said two of the rooms had already been cleared, with about 30 cannabis plants stolen. A third room, which contained 36 plants, was left untouched. Senior Constable Gillard said Wyndham’s Criminal Investigation Unit was on the hunt for both the crop house operator and person or persons involved in the burglary. She said there had been a number of Wyndham crop houses identified recently through thefts. This month, three men were sentenced to jail over an aggravated burglary at a cannabis crop house in Truganina. Zdravko Rajic, 38, Tyson Folino, 29, and Stephen Spiteri, 26, each pleaded guilty in Melbourne County Court to charges relating to the burglary on February 12, 2016. Charlene Macaulay

For the past 12 years, a heritage house located in a small country town has been at the centre of an art project started by Lyndal Jones. Jones, a well-known Australian artist, said she purchased the Watford House in Avoca with the intention of making it into a creative venture. Also known as “the Swiss House”, it was imported as numbered planks from Scandinavia in 1852 during the Victorian goldrush. Jones said that although the house was declared “beyond repair” when she brought it,

The charges were not in relation to Mr Singh’s attack. Those charged included two 17-year-old boys, an 18-year-old man and a 19-year-old from Tarneit and Wyndham Vale. “We’ve fairly quickly identified four offenders and are investigating any possible links between the offenders in custody and any other offending in Wyndham,” Senior Sergeant Matt Noy said. Anyone with information can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Station repairs in sight By Alesha Capone The Rail, Tram and Bus Union has called for an urgent upgrade of the tactile paving on Werribee train station’s platforms. Tactile paving is the orange and yellow plastic bumps on the ground which help people with vision-impairment know the edge of the platform is near. An audit being carried out by the RTBU has identified that some sections of the tactile paving at Werribee station are in dire need of attention.
‘‘
I’d like to see it upgraded so I don’t trip on - Belinda it any more
’’
RTBU state secretary Luba Grigorovitch said it was “disappointing� that Metro Trains had “failed to maintain platforms at the expense of safety and accessibility�. “The vision impaired who depend on these services deserve the safety and security of adequately maintained, accessible public transport,� Ms Grigorovitch said. When Star Weekly posted pictures showing the degraded condition of the Werribee station’s tactile paving on Facebook last week, several readers agreed that they should be fixed immediately. “I’d like to see it upgraded so I don’t trip on it any more and look like an idiot,� Belinda commented. “I don’t need to use it personally but it does need fixing – I’m sure there are vision impaired people using the train which is who it’s designed for,� Julie wrote. Phil said that he had “noticed the

deterioration quite some time ago� and was “quite surprised that they haven’t replaced it for OHS reasons�. Metro spokeswoman Sammie Black said the train operator was working with Public Transport Victoria to “facilitate upgrading the infrastructure at the station including the full replacement of new tactiles on the
Werribee Station platforms, with new asphalt and possible further works on the platform to enable new tactiles to be installed�. “Werribee station’s platforms are scheduled to receive new line markings in the coming months when the weather is warmer as coating is adversely affected by wet and damp surfaces,� she said.
New crews for industrial base Two companies have signed up to lease new buildings to be constructed at the West Park Industrial Estate in Truganina. Frasers Property Australia has announced it will build a 37,177-squaremetres warehouse at the estate for Ceva Logistics. The logistics and freight management business has committed to a 10-year lease at the site. National Tiles has signed a six-year lease on a 14,871-square-metre building. National Tiles is set to move into its new building in November, with Ceva Logistics scheduled to arrive on-site in December. The park has attracted other tenants, including Austrans, Toll Logistics, Maxi Parts Australia Post, Chep, Fastline Logistics, Mitre 10, Queensland Cotton, Goodyear and Dunlop Tyres, Catch of the Day, Kuehne + Nagel, DB Schenker and PFG Australia. The estate, comprising 320 hectares of industrial land, runs adjacent to Boundary Road and is owned by Frasers Property. Frasers Property southern region general manager Anthony Maugeri said the industrial park’s location was attractive due to its accessibility to Melbourne’s CBD, ports and major roads. “Melbourne’s ‌ west continues to attract high-quality tenants looking to benefit from the efficiencies and technologies that we offer in new state-of-the-art logistics centres,â€? he said.

Volunteers take issue with CFA By Charlene Macaulay CFA performance data does not paint the full picture of the ways brigades respond to call-outs, according to Volunteer Fire Brigades Victoria (VFBV). The data, which the CFA supplied to the fire services bill select committee earlier this month, details operational performance data for each CFA brigade. In particular, it outlines the number of times the primary brigade in a call-out zone met the eight-minute service delivery standard.
It’s this category that’s raising the ire of the VFBV and volunteer firefighters. In a letter to committee secretary Keir Delaney, VFBV chief executive Andrew Ford said the CFA measured performance on the basis of any brigade responding to a call-out within eight minutes. For example, Werribee’s CFA brigade attended 73 per cent of call-outs in its primary response area over the 2016-17 financial year. But 97 per cent of all call-outs within that zone were attended to within eight minutes by either Werribee or a neighbouring brigade.
Meanwhile, Truganina CFA failed to reach a single one of its six call-outs within the eight-minute benchmark, but a different unit was able to respond to every job, meaning the brigade had a response rate of 100 per cent. Werribee fire brigade captain Michael Wells said the overall figures were a more accurate representation of CFA performance. “From a community safety point of view, 97 per cent of the time fire trucks in the Werribee fire brigade area will be there within the eight minutes required,” he said.
“There are various delays to be had along the way, from traffic to radio traffic, and we work collaboratively with our neighbouring brigades – we support them, they support us – so that the community will get that response. “If you call triple-0 in Werribee, you will get a fire truck – and it could be ourselves or one of our neighbouring stations.” On Friday, the committee presented its final report into the proposed restructure of the CFA and MFB and recommended that the state government either withdraw, or vote down, the bill.
Brothers aim to go pro Happily, Italian Sports Club of Werribee president Sebastian Siccita donated $1350 to cover Kazadi’s registration fees, including a uniform and equipment. Mr Siccita said he wanted to support Kazadi because he wanted him “to have the same experience and exposure in a professional and friendly environment that my own son, of similar age, is having with his soccer development”. Michael Fragapane, who runs Gro-Link Nursery in Werribee South, donated Kibini’s registration fees. The boys said they were “very thankful” for the sponsorships, which would allow them to play with the NPL team for 12 months.

Brothers Kazadi and Kibini want to become professional soccer players. The youngsters began playing with the Werribee City Football Club’s under-14 National Premier League side this year after passing the team trials. Werribee City FC is part of the Italian Sports Club of Werribee, where Kibini and Kazadi train three days per week. “My life is soccer,” Kibini said. Kazadi said that about a year ago, he and his brother left Malawi in Africa as refugees. They now live with their aunt and cousins in Werribee. Kazadi said one of the first things which he and Kibini asked when they settled into their new home was: “Where can we play soccer?” But not wanting to be a financial burden on their aunt, the boys said they hoped to find sponsors who would cover the team’s yearly registration fees.

Kevin Hillier says Intaj Khan should step down
C
ouncils have been making news lately and there has been both good and bad for Wyndham. It is not good to see one of our elected representatives facing charges following an investigation by the Electoral Inspectorate. Cr Intaj Khan will face Werribee Magistrates Court next month on nine charges. While I am a believer in innocent until proven guilty, I believe he should step down until the charges are heard. Given the nature of the charges, and the portfolio he holds with council, it would be in everyone’s best interest for him to stand aside. That would by no means be an admission of guilt. Quite the contrary – it would be an admission he wants the judicial process and his name to be free of any hint of impropriety. It is fair to say Cr Khan needs to show the electorate he respects the rules and regulations of the position with which he has been entrusted. On a brighter note, I am pleased that to date our council has not bought into the Australia
Day or marriage equality debates. Other councils around Melbourne have, and quite rightly have been criticised for straying into political areas that are not their domain. It is more than fair for any councillor to express their personal views – I have no problem with that. But they certainly were not elected to set social agendas as a group.
V
iolence of any description is not to be tolerated. The sickening sights at local junior football finals in Hoppers Crossing last week were disgraceful. The level of anger was frightening, given it was as a result of a junior football match, a game. It is a sad day when you have to beef up security – let alone actually have any security – at junior sports events, but there appears to be no alternative. Banning parents and other spectators is out of the question, as the good ones do actually outnumber the bad. I will never understand the mindset of people who act this way at sports events. It is a game, not life and death. ■

West lures young home owners By Alesha Capone The 3029 postcode of Hoppers Crossing, Tarneit and Truganina is proving popular with young people looking to buy a house. Online credit scoring and information service Credit Simple last week released an analysis of its mortgage application data for the first half of this year. The figures show that within Victoria, 3029 had the highest number of potential house buyers aged under 30. The 3064 postcode in Melbourne’s northwest, which takes in Craigieburn,Roxburgh Park,
Kalkallo, Donnybrook and Mickleham, was second highest. Credit Simple spokeswoman Emily Price said house buyers aged 30 and under accounted for 15 per cent of all mortgage applications made in Australia. Samantha McCarthy, a senior sales consultant from hockingstuart Werribee, said affordability was one of the main reasons why under-30s were attracted to buying property in Hoppers Crossing, Tarneit and Truganina. Figures from the Real Estate Institute of Victoria show that while the median
house price for Melbourne was $822,000 in June, Hoppers Crossing’s median was $520,000, Tarneit’s median was $510,000 and Truganina’s $447,500. “We’ve seen a huge amount of growth in property prices out our way, and in the western suburbs, but some areas like Hoppers Crossing, Tarneit and Truganina are still incredibly affordable compared to the average Melbourne house price,” Ms McCarthy said. She said that the infrastructure in Wyndham was a drawcard for many young people.
“Pacific Werribee has been a massive drawcard and also, near Truganina and Tarneit, you have the railway stations and the Regional Rail Link, which just wasn’t there three to five years ago,” she said. Figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics show Tarneit’s population increased 372 per cent between June 30, 2006, and June 30 last year, growing from 7740 residents to 36,532. Truganina’s population rose 698 per cent in the same period, growing from 3128 people to 24,977.
Leaving sadness behind Living with Parkinson’s disease is no walk in the park – just ask Carmel Wilkinson. The Werribee woman saw first-hand how hard and debilitating the disease could be through her father Antonio, who lived with Parkinson’s for 26 years before passing away in 2012. “We thought he’d had a stroke – his face was a little quivery and his hands were shaking a little bit,” she said. “He didn’t know anything of Parkinson’s at the time. He had very early stages and that was controlled really well with medication, and then it goes down further. “He was hoping to get to 70 and he got to 80 and we celebrated that, and then he died three months after.” More than 27,000 Victorians are living with Parkinson’s, a chronic and progressive neurological condition that affects movement. There is no known cure.
After Antonio died, Ms Wilkinson’s daughter, Bianca, suggested the entire family take part in the annual Parkinson’s A Walk in the Park fundraiser to remember and commemorate the beloved husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. They’ve walked every year since and will once again come together this Sunday for their fifth Walk in the Park. “It was very emotional the first year,” Ms Wilkinson said. She said her mum, Maria, did not participate in the first walk, but everyone else did. “I don’t think we said a syllable,” she said. “We were very quiet and there were lots of tears. “But every other year since then has been lovely – it’s not sad now.” To Walk in the Park, or donate, go to melbournewalkinthepark.org.au Charlene Macaulay

‘I’ve got nothing to hide’ Wyndham councillor Intaj Khan will face the Werribee Magistrate’s Court next month to contest nine charges relating to the filing of register of interest returns and an alleged failure to disclose all his business and property interests. Cr Khan sat down with Charlene Macaulay to discuss the charges. You’ve been charged with nine offences regarding the filing of register of interest returns and non-disclosure of information on those returns. What do you have to say to that? If you look at charge one, councillor did fail to submit an ordinary return in 40 days. So, I didn’t submit it on time. I know it’s my fifth year [as a councillor] … I did submit it – but didn’t submit it in 40 days. When did you submit it? I can’t remember now. The funny part is, you cannot submit a scanned copy. It’s got to be signed and has to be the original copy [lodged in person]. If I’m not in town, happen to be in Sydney, bad luck. To be fair, you do have a 40-day window to lodge the return. And you missed the deadline on two instances. Yes. But, if you do submit it two days late, what’s the difference? I accept that [I was late]. I think there should be a reminder. Did I receive a reminder? No. Did I receive a warning? No. Every single department will send you a reminder, but there was no reminder. I’ve been charged for not submitting on time. Charge two is the same. Not filling out a form – I think I would be the first one taken to court for this.
Let’s go through the other charges. You have three charges for failing to disclose companies or bodies in which you held office during the return period. Another three charges are for failing to disclose companies or bodies in which you held a financial interest. Which companies did you fail to disclose and why? There were two companies, of many companies. But they’ve only been registered. I’ve got NBN Australia Limited. I was interested in opening a telecommunications company. I had this great idea, the company was registered, but … it never ever traded. It’s just a name. This company never traded in Wyndham or anywhere in Australia. What benefits have I received from that company? What incentives have I got? And how does it impact Wyndham’s residents? There’s another company, Georgina Mining. I was interested in the Northern Territory, wanted to explore some mining options. The company never traded and never did anything in the Wyndham city area. It has done some consulting work, but not at all in Wyndham. It is too harsh on me … I get it, I made a mistake, I accept it, but does that matter need to go to the court? There was also a failure to disclose property. I forgot to disclose, once up a time, Mowbray [the former secondary college in Caroline Springs]. Does that make a difference to
Wyndham City Council? No. Are they serious charges? We have a strong faith in the court [system] – we’ll put our case forward and we’ll come out clean. What benefits have I received, apart from all this hassle, and accusations from the public
that I know information about where to buy properties? If you, as a normal person, go to the Victorian Planning Authority website, you can check the real estate. I never bought any assets from council auctions or council property.

Wyndham takes action on ice By Alesha Capone Wyndham council is developing an action plan to reduce the harm methamphetamine is causing in the community. State government funding of $4900 will be used to assist the council and drug and alcohol treatment organisation Odyssey House to hold two forums to develop the ice action plan. Werribee Mercy Hospital dual diagnosis nurse Marcelle Sinclair said there had been “a change in the production and purity” of ice available on the streets in recent months. Ms Sinclair said this had “increased the number and severity of adverse reactions”
in patients admitted to the hospital. She said that it was important for people to know that harmful substances could be used in the creation of illegal drugs – with ingredients such as pseudoephedrine, ammonium nitrate fertiliser, starting fluid, lithium batteries, lye, water, iodised salt and drain cleaner sometimes added into the mix. “The user has no way of knowing what they are buying or consuming,” she said. Council city life director Jenny McMahon said the forums would bring together service providers, peak bodies and industry experts to “explore ways to increase connections between the community and services, to improve

existing referral systems and increase the information that is currently available to the community.” “With a rapidly growing community and increasing demands on services in Wyndham, this project aims to build on existing support services,” Ms McMahon said. Werribee MP Tim Pallas, Altona MP Jill
Hennessy and Tarneit MP Telmo Languiller announced the funding for the action plan last week. The council hopes to host the forums early next year. Ms Sinclair said Werribee Mercy ran an Alcohol and Other Drug Emergency Department (AOD ED) program, which aimed to improve the rates of identification, screening and assessment for patients presenting with AOD-related issues. “The Werribee Mercy Hospital AOD ED program receives approximately 50 new referrals each month for further assessment,” she said.
Countdown in Tarneit Tarneit residents have less than two months to wait until they can check out the suburb’s newest shopping centre. The 25,000-square-metre Tarneit Central shopping centre is scheduled to open on October 4. The $70 million development is anchored by Aldi and Coles supermarkets and Kmart and Harris Scarfe stores. It will also include more than 45 specialty stores, including cafes, fresh food and dining, fashion and beauty. The shopping centre, on the corner of Derrimut and Leakes roads, bounds the established Rose Grange and new Westbrook estates. Tarneit Central is the vision of Ranfurlie Developments, the retail and commercial arm of Dennis Family Corporation. Ranfurlie Developments chief executive
Mark Wilson said the centre would open in the second week of term three school holidays, with children’s activities being run as part of the opening celebrations. “[We] are proud and excited to deliver Tarneit Central and all it offers to the local community and look forward to delivering the same to the community of Manor Lakes with a planned development of Manor Lakes Central, currently awaiting approval by Wyndham council,” Mr Wilson said.

Wyndham rises in cruelty count By Alesha Capone RSPCA Victoria has received 294 animal cruelty reports from Wyndham residents in a year. Data released last week by the animal protection charity shows there were 10,180 cruelty reports made across the state in the 2016-17 financial year. Out of the state’s 79 municipalities, Wyndham ranked eighth-highest for animal cruelty reports – in the 2015-16 financial year
Wyndham was ranked 13th highest. Out of the latest animal cruelty complaints for Wyndham, 196 of the reports involved dogs and puppies; another 47 were about cats and kittens; and 18 reports concerned horses. RSPCA chief executive Liz Walker said many of the cruelty reports in Wyndham related to animals with insufficient food and water, or to pet hygiene, grooming and housing conditions. Eighty-two of the notifications involved sick or injured animals not receiving vet treatment. There were 59 reports of
underweight animals, 36 reports of animals being beaten or wounded and 44 notifications about abandoned animals. But Dr Walker said that in most cases of alleged animal cruelty, concerns were quickly resolved by RSPCA inspectors educating the owner or person in charge of an animal on how to better care for it. She said that in more serious cases, the RSPCA would send an animal’s owner a notice to comply, take an animal into protective custody or launch a prosecution.
Dr Walker said not all reports about animal cruelty were substantiated through an investigation and that others did not meet the legal definition of animal cruelty. She encouraged pet owners who could not provide basic care for their animals to seek help from family, friends or an animal welfare group. To report a suspected case of animal cruelty, contact the RSPCA on 9224 2222 or got to rspcavic.org/services/inspectorate/ report-cruelty/.
Award signs are good Signwriter Justin Watts often hears the words “that’s awesome” after completing a job. That praise is embraced in the name of Mr Watts’ Point Cook-based business, Awesigns. “‘That’s awesome’ is generally the reaction we get – lots of people say it without even knowing,” he said. Mr Watts said that as well as being an obvious play on words, the name Awesigns was a homage to his mother, whose initials are A.W.E. Mr Watts started Awesigns in 2015, fulfilling a lifelong ambition to run his own business. He did work experience with a Bendigo signwriter while in year 10 and left school the next year to take up a signwriting apprenticeship. “What I enjoy most is just being able to be creative, working with different people and other business owners,” he said.
Mr Watts said that the business provided consultation, signage, branding, installation and graphic design services, mainly to customers in the west but also to other parts of Melbourne. “Most business comes to us through word-of-mouth, referrals and business networking,” he said. Mr Watts said he was “amazed and speechless” after a client nominated Awesigns for this year’s Wyndham Business Awards. “It’s quite humbling,” he said. Awesigns has been named a finalist in the trade service’s category of the annual competition. The winners of the awards will be announced at a ceremony in Hoppers Crossing this Friday.

New suburb’s rail strain By Esther Lauaki As Melton’s newest suburb, Mt Atkinson, received the green light from the state government, doubts have been raised about the potential strain it will place on struggling rail services. State Planning Minister Richard Wynne last week approved the detailed precinct structure plan for Mt Atkinson, which is south-west of Caroline Springs. The 1500-hectare precinct is scheduled to feature more than 8000 dwellings that will become home to more than 22,000 people in the next 15 years. It will include a town centre, a large business and commercial hub, an industrial park, public open space, four schools, community facilities and land for a future train station. Melton mayor Sophie Ramsey said Mt Atkinson was one of three future stops planned for the Ballarat line and she didn’t think they could be opened until the line was electrified. While the state government has pledged $518 million for upgrades to the Ballarat line, including duplication of the line between Melton and Deer Park, it is yet to announce funding for electrification. “At the moment, the line is almost at a maximum capacity, which is why it needs duplication before we can entertain adding other stops,” Cr Ramsey said. Greens western suburbs MP Colleen Hartland called on the government to commit to a metro train service to Melton. “The Ballarat V/Line service is already full, so this new suburb in Mt Atkinson will be a nightmare for people who catch the train,” she said. “All the V/Line stations from Ardeer to Melton should be on a metro train line. The

government urgently needs to commit to a timeline to make it happen.” “We’re in a crazy situation where you can get a metro train to places like Belgrave and Frankston, but you have to get a country train to Deer Park.” Mr Wynne said Mt Atkinson would eventually provide up to 19,000 long-term
jobs in retail, commercial, industrial, office, education and home-based businesses. A contribution of more than $100 million paid by the developers, Mt Atkinson Holdings, will cover a fire station and a new bus service connecting to Rockbank station. Construction is expected to begin later this year.

Cops have beaut ute tips Wyndham police is calling on tradies to park their utes inside home garages following a spate of tool thefts. Sergeant Adam Radley, who runs the vehicle crime reduction team at Wyndham’s crime investigation unit, said thieves had been targeting tradesmen’s vehicles, particularly around Tarneit, Point Cook and Hoppers Crossing, in the past two months. “There has been a distinct rise in tradesman’s utility’s targeted, where the offender will force open canopys, or pop open tool boxes on the back,” he said. “Unfortunately tradesman keep their tools here, even when their utes are parked in the street or their driveways.” Sergeant Radley said power tools such as drills were commonly stolen items, with thieves selling the stolen property through markets, Ebay, Gumtree and Facebook buy, swap and sell pages. Tools valued at more than $2.1 million have been stolen in Wyndham in the three years to March 31, 2017, according to the Crime Statistics Agency. Sergeant Radley said in many cases, the utes were parked on nature strips or in easily accessible driveways. He called on tradies to park their vehicles in garages or behind gates. “If this can’t be done, you should be removing the tools from the vehicles, even though this can be time-consuming,” he said.

Wyndham lags on testing rates By Alesha Capone Wyndham residents have lodged the third-lowest rate of participation in the state for bowel cancer screening. The National Bowel Cancer Screening Program (NBCSP) sends eligible people aged between 50 and 74 years a free screening test every two years. The test, to be completed at home, is sent to all Australian citizens and migrants within the
age group, if they have a Medicare card or are registered as a Department of Veterans Affairs’ customer. In 2014-15, 648,001 Victorians were sent the at-home test but just 258,521 participated. Within Wyndham, 34.7 per cent of people who were sent the test completed it. Only two other areas in Victoria lodged a lower participation rate, with Casey recording the lowest rate of 32.5 per cent. Cancer Council’s screening manager Kate
‘‘
You can find early signs of bowel cancer
’’
- Kate Broun
Broun said the early detection of bowel cancer through the at-home screening test could save lives. “The test is available for people without symptoms so you can find early signs of bowel
cancer before you realise anything is wrong,” she said. “Over 90 per cent of bowel cancers can be successfully treated if found early.” Australia has one of the highest rates of bowel cancer in the world. About one in 23 Australians will develop bowel cancer. The NBCSP aims to reduce bowel cancer deaths through early detection of the disease. See www.cancerscreening.gov.au/bowel for details.
Help for women’s health Women’s health will be the focus of a $33 million specialist medical centre being built in Werribee. Techne Developments, which opened the Wyndham Clinic Private Hospital and Wyndham Private Medical Centre, is developing the Wyndham Medical and Services Centre along Hoppers Lane, next door to St Vincent’s Private Hospital Werribee. The medical centre, which is under construction and is expected to open about May 2018, will include a general practice medical clinic, women’s specialist GP practice, and all elements of women’s health, including maternity, obstetrics and gynaecology. Part of the building has also been leased out to the state government and will house offices for government employees. Construction of a $9.2 million child care centre behind the new medical centre is also expected to begin in coming months. The centre will offer 150 places and is also expected to open about May 2018.
Techne Development managing director Scott Vickers-Willis said the projects would cement Hoppers Lane as the west’s leading healthcare precinct. “There’s no doubt the western suburbs of Melbourne are booming in population growth and in particular in Wyndham, which has regularly recorded one of the fastest growth rates in Australia,” he said. “These striking new developments will certainly be a significant addition to the already burgeoning health and learning precinct in Hoppers Lane.” Charlene Macaulay

Think police booze bus operations are like a real-life version of RBT RBT? Charlene Macaulay goes on a ride-along with Westgate Highway Patrol during a night-long drinkdriving blitz to find out. It’s 7pm on Saturday and drink-driving blitz Operation Cover is in full swing. Four booze buses have been set up along some of Wyndham’s main arterial roads – including Heaths and Ballan roads, William Thwaites Drive, and the Derrimut Road underpass. There’s roving police driving around Wyndham’s residential streets and PAD dogs on hand for situations in which drugs may be involved. About 40 police officers from across Westgate Highway Patrol, the uniform branch and the divisional response unit are taking part in the eight-hour operation. Wyndham police Acting Inspector Peter Bitton said the operation was all about making Wyndham roads safe for locals. Eight people have died this year in road collisions across the Westgate division, which comprises Wyndham, Maribyrnong and Hobsons Bay; 78 people have been seriously injured. My chaperone for the night, Sergeant Marty Wallace from Westgate Highway Patrol, first takes me to the booze bus along William Thwaites Drive in Cocoroc, across from the Werribee Recycled Water Plant. For the next
four hours, the Princes Freeway entrance is blocked and all drivers heading down this stretch are subjected to random breath tests. Police are also doing registration checks to detect any unregistered cars, unlicensed drivers and outstanding warrants. Surprisingly – and pleasingly – it’s not until after 8pm that the first positive reading is returned.

you shouldn’t drink drive
Left and above: More than 2700 random breath tests were conducted in Wyndham as part of Operation Cover. Above right: This car was towed after its driver blew 0.15. Inset: An oral fluid test used to detect the presence of drugs. (Pictures: Charlene Macaulay)
The male driver is telling police he’s only had Dr Pepper to drink when he returns a blood alcohol reading more than 0.07. Sergeant Wallace gets in the man’s car to move it to the side of the road and finds a small zip-lock bag of cannabis in the centre console. “You could smell it,” he says later. The driver is taken inside the booze bus where he’ll have to wait 15 minutes before
undergoing a secondary, evidentiary breath test. He’ll also take an oral fluid test, which can detect the presence of ice, methamphetamines and cannabis in a person’s system. Senior Constable Lyn Taylor, who is running this booze bus, said that despite being over the limit in preliminary breath tests, drivers still proclaimed their innocence while waiting to take the evidentiary test.
We head over to the booze buses on Ballan and Heaths roads, where no positive breath tests have been returned as yet. On average, the strike rate for drink-driving is one positive reading for every few hundred random breath tests, but it’s drug drivers that are the big concern. Over at the Derrimut Road booze bus, a car is being towed away after its driver returned a blood-alcohol reading above 0.15. The 26-year-old Deer Park man, whose car has been impounded for 30 days, was also fined $674, had his licence cancelled and was disqualified for 11 months. Further inquiries revealed the man was wanted for an outstanding breach of an intervention order, so he was subsequently arrested and interviewed before going before a magistrate, where he was remanded in custody. At 10pm, the booze buses switch to another four locations – at the Princes Highway Hoppers Crossing freeway entry point, at the corner of Leakes Road and Banfield Court in Truganina, and two along each side of Heaths Road, opposite Mossfiel Reserve.
The buses spend the next four hours conducting random breath tests at these sites. Overall, police conduct 2790 preliminary breath tests for Operation Cover, with 13 motorists recording readings above 0.05. Another five are arrested for possessing a drug of dependence and 11 people will be summonsed to court at a later date for driving offences. Three cars were impounded for driving offences, three were issued with defect notices for not being roadworthy and 21 fines were issued to drivers for other traffic matters, including unregistered vehicles and overloading. Acting Inspector Bitton called on people to plan ahead and arrange alternative transport if they’re planning to have a drink. “It is unbelievable that with all the information people have about the dangers of drink- and drug-driving today, that some still make the conscious decision to drive under the influence,” he said. “If you have used drugs, don’t drive.”

A sweet learning curve By Alesha Capone As a long-serving staff member at Werribee Primary School, Catherine Millar is a familiar face to many children and families. Ms Millar started teaching at the school in 1988 after working at the now closed Altona East and Laverton primary schools. Ms Millar has been recognised by the Department of Education and Training for her 40-year career in Victorian education, along with 420 other teachers and school-based professionals. At a ceremony in Melbourne last week, Education Minister James Merlino presented attendees with certificates of appreciation. Werribee MP Tim Pallas thanked Ms Millar for her contribution to education, saying “her positive impact has been felt by generations of young students”. Ms Millar said her career at Werribee Primary had included “12 joyous years” teaching in the school’s art room, coaching and literacy, team-teaching in a classroom and acting as a curriculum co-ordinator. She said her current role as a leading teacher involved “anything and everything”, including interacting with children and mentoring her colleagues. Ms Millar said one of the most important aspects of teaching was the development of a strong relationship between educators and their students. “I love the fact that it’s a dynamic profession,” she said. “We say to the kids, ‘I never stop learning, you never stop learning’.” Ms Millar said this important lesson was one that she had also imparted to her two children – including her son, who is also a teacher at Werribee Primary School.
For motorists frustrated by the roadworks at the corner of Tarneit and Hogans roads in Tarneit, the end is in sight. Earlier this month, Star Weekly posed a question on Facebook, asking residents what infrastructure the suburb needed. Many people responded by saying that they would like to see existing roadworks in the area finished off. Leanne described the roadworks at the corner of Tarneit and Hogans roads as an “absolute nightmare”. Plenty of other commentators agreed with her. The council’s economy, innovation and liveability director Kate Roffey said the council was increasing the capacity of the intersection. In March, the council started work on a $6 million project to duplicate Tarneit Road between Hogans Road and the Good News Lutheran College from two lanes to four lanes. The works should be finished by the end of October. Ms Roffey said the council’s 2017-18 budget included a record $133 million for capital works, including $35 million for roads. She said the council was also in the process of designing an upgrade for Thames Boulevard between Heaths and Hogans roads. “We are hoping to get the designs complete and out for consultation with residents prior to Christmas this year,” Ms Roffey said. “Works are scheduled to commence in the first quarter of 2018.” Catherine Millar has been honoured for her contribution to education.

There’s A New Primary School Coming!
TARNEIT WEST PRIMARY SCHOOL
(Damjan Janevski)
(Interim name)
STAVRIANA, 10, LOGAN, 11, AND LIKA, 10
School branches out Featherbrook P-9 College is set to get a whole lot greener. The school’s prep to grade six pupils recently planted a host of pear and apple trees and other plants donated by Wyndham council, sustainability centre CERES and Spotless for National Tree Day. This was followed up by the beginnings of the school’s own indigenous edible garden, with river mint, vanilla lily, chocolate lily and native raspberry being planted across six raised garden beds. Principal Kerry Clayton said the fruit
harvested from the trees will be used in food technology classes. “Not only will they beautify our school, but it is also very important for the sustainability of our grounds,” Ms Clayton said. “So many children think that you go and get your fruit and vegies from a supermarket, they have no idea how these things actually come about. “It is incumbent upon us in education to support their knowledge around these things, and what better way to do it?”

I was interested to see Melbourne win an award from The Economist Magazine as the world’s most liveable city for the seventh year in a row. While I do believe that Melbourne is a great city, and we have much to celebrate, the award made me pause to think about what different people mean by the term ‘liveability’. As a Wyndham resident for over 51years, I think our local view might be a slightly qualified one. Although we’ve seen our area develop and offer more employment, cultural, shopping, tourism, sport and other services over this time, our growth pressures still affect the extent to which local families and businesses can enjoy their lives. Despite Victoria being the major destination state for intrastate and international migration, Melbourne’s growth areas such as Wyndham have shouldered a disproportionate share of this population which has not been matched by funding and integrated planning from other levels of government who have far greater control over population growth than we do. So while I believe our area and Melbourne are great places to live, work and play, you will continue to hear me speaking as your Mayor for more funding and support to improve liveability. Regards, Henry Barlow

A Truganina child care centre and kindergarten is backing an annual campaign to help protect Australian children. Samsara Avenue Early Learning Centre is getting behind Bravehearts’ White Balloon Day campaign, an annual awareness and fundraising day dedicated to the prevention of child sexual assault. Children at the centre will take part in a range of activities, including creating a chalk mural that must feature a white balloon as a symbol of hope as part of the Bravehearts national chalk art project. Samsara director Liza Pendlebury said
centre staff strived to create a nurturing and safe environment for the children in its care. “All children have the right to feel safe and White Balloon Day is a great way for the whole community to come together and support Australian children,” she said. Bravehearts founder and executive chair, Hetty Johnston, added: “child sexual assault is a tough topic but we are encouraging the community to ‘chalk’ about it through art and sharing the message of hope and prevention.” White Balloon Day will be held on September 8.

A gift of good reading The Williams Landing shopping centre is donating books to kindergartens and schools, in the names of local children. The centre has launched a Kids’ Crew Club for youngsters, aged from toddlers to seven years old, which includes storytime and craft sessions. If children join the club, they can collect a sticker from the storyteller at each reading event. Once a child has gathered four stickers, they can pick a book from a list of titles to send to a
pre-school or primary school of their family’s choice. Each volume will contain a label with the child’s name, saying they donated the book. The shopping centre’s marketing consultant Toni Smith said they were hoping to donate as many books as possible to Wyndham’s educational institutes. The weekly storytime sessions are held at 10am on Wednesdays at the centre, 100 Overton Road, Williams Landing. Alesha Capone

Where Vietnamese echoes meet classic vanilla slices and pies Evocative childhood memories of banh mi – a baguette, warm from the oven, smothered in pate and filled with fresh green herbs, pork belly and crispy crackling – were the catalyst for David Nguyen to open The Baker’s Son at Hoppers Crossing Shopping Centre. David, born in Vietnam and raised in Australia, also loves Aussie-style vanilla slices and a great meat pie. At The Baker’s Son, the two cultures merge to bring locals a selection of banh mi and traditional bakery treats.

“When I was a little kid, my family would go to our local bakery to scoff down a banh mi, followed by a lamington, which I loved for its combination of chocolate and coconut,” David says. “Taking inspiration from my father’s baking, I now work alongside a culturally diverse team to produce traditional-style Vietnamese tiger banh mi and pork puffs – which sit alongside a variety of beef and chicken pies, sausage
rolls, pasties and quiches. “We also prepare classic ham and cheese, roast chicken and mayo, chicken schnitzel, and salad rolls.” The Baker’s Son offers a variety of cakes to be had, three types of vanilla slices, four kinds of doughnuts, apple and caramel slices, cannoli and custard tarts. Various coffee styles are served, as well as spiced chai, tea and milkshakes. David encourages locals to pop in for a coffee break during shopping, grab a snack to take home or bring in the family to experience the flavours of Vietnam in a relaxed, hospitable environment.

A healthy operation wins friends in Hoppers Crossing In the eight weeks since long-time Wyndham local Lotta Lauterbach opened her health food store, Go Vita Hoppers Crossing, her customers have been finding genuine help through her team’s advice and the natural products on offer. “I’ve been working in the health food field for the past 17 years,” Lotta says. “I knew there was a need in our community for a health store that came with honest, expert health advice. “And, soon, we will offer consultations, for our customers who need a more tailored approach to their health regimes. “We’re all about great customer service and treating everyone as an individual – we’ll even stop someone from buying a product when we believe it isn’t right for them.” Along with highly-skilled Lotta, the Go Vita team includes two qualified naturopaths and another member who is studying naturopathy. So what does Go Vita have on the shelves? A very wide range, says Lotta.
There are natural cleaning products, skin and hair care products, vegan make-up and pet care and natural baby products. Among the health foods are vegan and gluten-free products, protein powders, superfoods, snacks and gut-health foods such as on-tap kombucha. High-quality supplements – including some practitioner-only ranges – are also in stock. Go Vita offer free membership, which entitles members to everyday discounts on many supplements, as well as up to 20 per cent discount on most items for two days each month. Right now, to celebrate the Go Vita parent company’s 30th birthday, there’s a 30 per cent discount on the NutriVital supplement range.

TRAVEL STARWEEKLY.COM.AU
Warming to the west By Ewen McRae It had been over 20 years since I’d travelled west over the Nullarbor, and for the life of me I don’t know why I waited so long. Searching for a mid-winter getaway for a bit of sun and relaxation, most of us in Melbourne look north to tropical Queensland, but I decided to shift my gaze to the west and set my sights on Perth. I was not disappointed. I lived in Western Australia as a kid, and the vivid memories of sun-kissed beaches and a relaxed way of life were a big part of making this my weekend away. I grabbed flights for about $400 return and made my way off on a dreary Melbourne morning, landing in blinding sunshine and a balmy 25C winter day. One of the great things about Perth, I discover, is just how laid back it is. Two minutes after driving away from the airport and you’re in leafy suburbs; 15 minutes later you’re in the middle of the city and ready to head out exploring. I make my way down to the waterfront for a bit of breakfast. I’ve heard horror stories about the price of food and, more importantly, coffee in Perth, but I have a great caffeine hit and breakfast on the banks of the Swan River for the same price you’d expect to pay at a Melbourne CBD cafe. Boats come and go from the marina, and there’s a general buzz building along the boardwalk as families and couples get out and enjoy the Saturday sunshine along the river. It’s a city that seems perfectly designed for walking, with prime riverfront real estate set aside for parks and walking trails rather than buildings. With shopping, cafes and even a mini-golf course along the boardwalk it wasn’t
hard to unwind. Kings Park Botanic Gardens are just a short stroll from the city centre, and while the ascent up to the hill can be a bit taxing the views are worth it. From there, you can take in the city and
the winding Swan River that dominates the landscape, and also check out the Aboriginal art museum that sits just behind the lookout. It doesn’t feel like you’re in a capital city as
you stroll through the gardens, the smells of eucalyptus and wattle filling the air and all manner of bird life calling out overhead. Even if you’re not much of a bushwalker, the gardens are the perfect chance to unwind.

‘SPARROW EARLY LEARNING’
STARWEEKLY.COM.AU
When I hear of how dreary it is in Melbourne on the same day, I can’t help but smile. No trip to Perth would be complete without a trip to the beach, and it’s there I become truly envious of our western friends. I make my way out to Cottesloe and Scarborough beaches, and while the water was not quite warm enough for a dip, I made a mental note to come back in the warmer months. We may have some OK beaches in Melbourne, but Perth is spoilt for choice with miles of coastline just brimming with beach fun. Even in the depths of winter, there are plenty of people out catching waves, playing a bit of beach cricket or just soaking up the sun. Ready for summer yet? If sports is more your go, as it is mine, head over and have a football experience like few others sitting at a West Coast or Fremantle game, which give new meaning to the phrase “one-eyed supporter”. This is the final season in which the two Perth clubs will play out of Domain Stadium, so if you’re planning a trip next year your game will be at the brand new 65,000-capacity stadium a short walk from the CBD and on the banks of the river. While the ground will soon be different, the atmosphere will surely be the same. Coming from a sports mad city like Melbourne, it is great to see the passion for the game no matter where you may be. For a night out, I head to the Northbridge area, where a swathe of restaurants, bars and clubs are within walking distance of each other – perfect for when you don’t know the area. It may seem like a long way to go for a weekend, but Perth did not disappoint and I’m planning on making it a regular mid-winter trip to escape these gloomy Melbourne days.

I WANT THE CHURCH TO CHOOSE HOW LONG I SUFFER INTOLERABLE PAIN BEFORE I DIE. YES
NO
I’D RATHER CHOOSE. YES
NO
If you believe in choice, you must make your voice heard. Despite long-term public support, the last two decades have seen 30 attempts to pass a Voluntary Assisted Dying law fail. This is mainly due to fake news and fear campaigns, like the kind the Australian Christian Lobby and Right to Life group are spreading right now in Victoria. They are activating their members to pressure MPs to vote against Voluntary Assisted Dying laws. It’s a tactic that has worked many times before. But polls show that over 75% of Victorians support this law.
The law will be for competent adults with an incurable physical illness, which two doctors expect to cause death within 12 months, and is causing suffering that cannot be relieved. This is the most conservative law of its type proposed anywhere in the world. Those who oppose the law can choose not to use it.
So why should we all suffer for their beliefs? Make it clear to your local MP that this is a law you want. To join our campaign and find the contact details of your local MP visit
StopVictoriansSuffering.org.au
Why should any church decide for all of us? You need to make your voice heard now. Victoria’s politicians will soon vote on a Voluntary Assisted Dying law. Hearing directly from the public will make a difference.
IF YOU BELIEVE IN CHOICE, WE NEED YOUR VOICE.

FOOD REVIEW STARWEEKLY.COM.AU
CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir finds an old favourite’s new format is smokin’ Burn City Smokers has been one of the hotter and more well-known names on the Melbourne barbecue scene for quite a while. But that has been based on activities of the festival and catering variety. Now Burn City has a bricks-and-mortar thing going. Open for a few weeks is the shop front of the Vernon Street kitchen they’ve been using for a year or so. We’re told menus proper are on the way, but in the meantime a prominently displayed blackboard does menu service. It’s not a full menu and the outfit’s website warns the food line-up will be changing regularly. As well, the hours are limited – Friday dinner, Saturday lunch and dinner, and Sunday lunch and late lunch. Despite all these provisos, the place seems to have made many friends. Nat and I see plenty of Uber bags and other takeaways going out the door, and the locals with whom we share the communal table at the front are enthusiastic. Do we share their enthusiasm? Yes. A side of fries ($7) is fine, though I wish they’d been hotter. A salad of broccoli, almonds, pickled red onion, chilli and garlic ($7) is a great idea, but the sum is less than the parts. Largely this is because it doesn’t really come together as a cohesive whole and the broccoli
BURN CITY TEST KITCHEN Address: 31A Venron Street, South Kingsville Phone: 9043 9554 (open days after noon) florets are too big and undercooked, for my taste anyway. Chicken and potato salad ($18) is good – I like what I eat a lot, though I don’t think Nat is as impressed. The smoked chook – even the breast – is moist and very good, while the seeded mustard-dressed potatoes are fine. Had we been left to our own, non-reviewing devices, we both would’ve ordered the beef short rib. This is, on the list from we’ve been working, the sole, really heavyweight barbecue offering. The “12hr smoked beef rib” is crusty, musty, salty and delicious, the meat tender and excellent. Accompanying, a bit unusually, are honey carrots. I love them, even though they, a bit like the earlier broccoli, are a tad too much on the al dente side. For what’s it worth, the “in bread” efforts we see going by look very worthy of exploration. As do the baked pasta and bangers and mash being enjoyed by the friendly locals at our table.

Our deep well of knowledge
Some of the Wyndham citizens who will be sharing their wisdom. (Marco De Luca)
What is knowledge? That’s what the Public Pedagogies Institute (PPI) wants Wyndham locals to consider with its latest initiative, the Werribee Pop-Up School.
Institute president Karen Charman says every local community has significant expert knowledge in its midst and Werribee is no exception.
Station Place in Werribee will come alive with stalls, presentations and exhibitions extolling different types of knowledge on Friday, September 1, from 2-6pm.
“All of this knowledge and these abilities are held by people who live in Werribee,” Dr Charman says. The pop-up school will also be an opportunity for those attending to record and appreciate what they think constitutes important Werribee knowledge.
The institute, responsible for the Werribee Pop-Up School, is focused on getting students and family members to recognise that knowledge encompasses much more than NAPLAN results and traditional curriculums.
“PPI is concerned with learning and teaching that occurs outside of formal institutions such as schools and universities – there can be a tendency to see growth of knowledge and skills through state and national measurements only.
Dr Charman and the PPI want to join the community in celebrating diverse knowledge. Other fun activities on the day will include mask making, drawing, singing, a photographic exhibition, choir performances, spoken word and poetry, weaving and Chinese language sessions. The festival opening will take place in the park prior to the Pop-Up School from 1-2pm. All welcome. Wyndham Community and Education Centre, 3 Princes Highway, Werribee. Inquiries: 9742 4013 or visit www.wyndhamcec.org.au
12359878-ACM32-17 10055931-01
The variety will range from traditional cultural knowledge to community history and writing – even ukulele lessons.
“This is only one sort of indicator.”

SPORT Sing brings over his best The Footscray Cycling Club’s winter road season took a chilly turn at the weekend, with riders being challenged by a wintery blast of cold and rain on the Balliang circuit. Brian Sing, from the South Perth Cycling Club, took out the A-Grade. The WA rider survived the early attacks launched by James Butler which split the field into three groups. Sing took the sprint from Ballarat/Sebastopol CC rider John Maguire and Footscray club president Miles DaCosta. The B-grade race was a strange affair, with an inconsistent pace and a relatively calm first run up to the turn at the base of Granite Road. The second lap climbs were punctuated by a few serious attacks from Hawthorn CC rider Julian Del Beato, David Walker and John Mogavero, but in the end it was Werribee rider Mark Micallef who took the sprint. “In the run-down to the sprint, it was Julian
who hit first, trying to open up a gap, so it was a heady pace as we approached the end,” Micallef said. “It bunched up with about half a kilometre to go, and I made sure I wasn’t buried too deep. “Dave Walker took off and I claimed his wheel, and with about 100 to go I launched, fully expecting to be swamped on the line, but managed to hold them off.” Micallef crossed the line ahead of Mogavero and Geoff Robertson. In C-grade, St Kilda CC rider Marcus Olive took the win from veteran Colin Morris and the ever consistent Andrew Rossiter. Olive found himself in a tight sprint after a very tough series of climbs into Staughton Vale. In the D-grade race, first-time racer Raphael Hammond won a hotly contested bunch-sprint by a tiny margin from Tiernan Clark and Ballarat/Sebastopol CC rider Steve Barille.
Storm fades in grand final Manor Lakes was out-classed by Keilor in the inaugural Western Region and Essendon District Women’s Football League grand final at Greenvale Recreation Reserve on Sunday. The Storm could only manage three majors against a powerful Keilor, going down 15.7 (97) - 3.4 (22). It was an otherwise superb first season in the WREDWFL for the Storm, who won 12 of their 14 games, plus a preliminary final win over Sunbury. The only stumbling block for Manor Lakes seemed to be Keilor, who beat them on all three occasions, including twice in the finals.
IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ The
final round of WRFL senior home and away matches provided many memorable highs and lows. In division 3, North Sunshine pulled off a remarkable win over flag favourite Parkside, but with Sunshine Heights beating Wyndham Suns, North Sunshine’s quest for a finals spot was thwarted, the Roadrunners missing out by half a game. Albanvale clinched a final four spot ahead of Newport Power in division 2 by defeating Manor Lakes, and will face the same team this week in an elimination final. The drama was even greater in division 1. Sunshine inflicted only the second defeat of the season on reigning premier Deer Park and in the process secured third spot and a double chance. Hoppers Crossing was in the mix to finish third, but – despite winning handsomely against Wyndhamvale – missed the double chance by a mere 2.9 per cent, the Warriors ruing their final quarter fade-out against the Falcons. Werribee Districts went into the final game with little expectation of extending its season, and this looked even less likely when Albion led by 10 points at three-quarter time. Werribee needed to win and also needed eighth-placed St Albans to defeat fifth-placed Altona to snatch fifth spot. Werribee triumphed by 18 points but its finals fate was hanging in the balance. St Albans won by a point, meaning Werribee will face Hoppers Crossing in an elimination final this Sunday.
■ Congratulations
to Newport baseballers Connor Schibeci and Pharell Peni, who have been selected in the MLB invitational squad for 12 to 14 year olds. They’ll be attending next week’s inaugural camp in Lismore for boys in this age group which is being run by Baseball Australia to screen potential elite players and have them seen and coached by the best in the land. Scouts from pro baseball will be in attendance. Similar programs in the past have unearthed the likes of major league star Brad Harman, who is still active with the Melbourne Aces.

Bears win shot at final By Lance Jenkinson When Marcus Kaponga charged away for a long intercept try midway through the second half, the Werribee Bears knew they were heading back to the NRL Victoria first grade grand final for a third consecutive year. To that point in the game, it was a real semi-final arm wrestle with Casey Warriors at Clearwood Drive Reserve on Saturday, but Kaponga’s quick thinking and speedy feet gave the Bears momentum to go on and win the game. “It was toe-to-toe, both teams going at it,” Bears co-coach Brian George said. “The momentum turned our way after that. “There was about 20 minutes to go and it changed the game for us.” Werribee ran out 18-point winners, but it was a margin that flattered them. The game see-sawed throughout, as you would expect when the two powerhouses of Victoria rugby league were locking horns. 80 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ AUGUST 23, 2017
But the Bears finished the stronger, running in five tries, including two to Ben Tuiatua and one each to Kaponga, Troy Hanita-Paki and Redeem Saleupolu. “Even though the score was high, it felt like it was a pretty tight game,” George said. “There’s not much difference between us and them.” Hanita-Paki and Frank Vaaua were huge for Werribee. Hanita-Paki marshalled the Bears around the field in a manner that belied his teenage years. “He was controlling our team,” George said. “He linked the backs and the forwards together and kept us calm.” Vaaua’s energy was a constant for the Bears as he refused to give the Warriors defenders a set to rest. “He was hitting the advantage line, bending their forwards back and we were just capitalising off it,” George said. Keeping Casey to just 10 points is no mean feat.
The Warriors averaged 43 points per game in the regular season and amassed a whopping 694 points all up – 190 more than the next best offence in the league. A big reason for the Warriors limp offensive performance was Iosua Tauai and Eddie Aukino Hughes. “They were both doing all the hard work in the middle,” George said. “The hard running, the hard tackling – they were our leaders going forward for our outside backs. “They do all the ugly stuff in defence, putting their bodies on the line.” Werribee will get the week off before the season decider to rest its sore bodies after a bruising semi-final. While the Bears are the defending champions, grand final day will be a new experience for the vast majority. “We’ve got about 12 new faces from last year,” George said. “Even though we’re the reigning champions from last year, it’s basically a new group, so it’s a new thing for most of us.”
sad to report the passing of John Hibbs, a member of the inaugural senior team of the Albion Football Club in the old FDFL. John was a passionate Bulldogs member and a keen and talented golfer. His son, Anthony, was a senior player at Werribee Cricket Club for many years and John a regular member on the Hill. To his wife Deane and the family, my sincere condolences. Kevin Hillier

Teen cracks first state selection Lucia Grace Ngauamo could not contain her excitement after receiving news of her selection in the School Sports Victoria 15 and under netball team. The MacKillop College year 9 student will be part of a 12-player Victorian roster that will travel to Adelaide for the national championships later this year. “I was very happy, jumping up and down the school hall,” Ngauamo said. “It’s a big thing for me. “It’s really exciting.” It will be the first time Ngauamo has travelled to play representative netball. The 14-year-old from Werribee admits to having a mixture of nerves and excitement, but she will be ready to bring down the best goal shooters and goal attacks in her age group.
A goal defence/goal keeper, Ngauamo’s strengths lie in the one-on-one battles and the rebounding. Ngauamo has benefitted from a great support network, in particular coaches Darren Abela and Marg Lind. Abela is Ngauamo’s local club coach at the Westside Saints, while Lind, the head coach of state championship netball side City West Falcons, runs elite training programs for talented youngsters. “They’ve told me to be more aggressive to the ball,” Ngauamo said. “They give me tips on my foot work and strength and conditioning.” Ngauamo has begun training with the Victorian team. She is learning the team’s defensive structures and getting familiar with
her teammates. The goal is clear for all the players in the Big V camp. “I think we can win the whole comp,” Ngauamo said. Ngauamo, who admires Australian and Collingwood Magpies netball Sharni Layton for her “dedication to the game and intensity she puts on to the court”, is putting no ceiling on what she can achieve in her netball career. “I want to go far with my netball,” Ngauamo said. “I want to play in the Suncorp Super Netball and play for the Australian team.” Lance Jenkinson Lucia Grace Ngauamo is preparing to represent the Big V.

Odds in favour of Tigers By Lance Jenkinson Werribee Districts have miraculously made the Western Region Football League division 1 finals. The Tigers somehow qualified in fifth place after a stunning turn of events in the final home-and-away round. After going though the motions for a half against Albion, the Tigers got their act together to come from 33 points down at half-time to win by 19 points at Soldiers Reserve. That was only half the battle for Werribee Districts. The Tigers needed help from an unlikely source in St Albans. They needed the Saints, a struggling side who went down to bottom of the ladder Wyndhamvale seven days earlier, to pull off the shock of the season against Altona. And St Albans did the unthinkable, downing Altona by one point in a thriller, sparking wild celebrations for the Tigers, who jumped up a spot on the ladder and will take their place in the finals. “It’s been a strange day that’s for sure,” Tigers co-captain Matt Dean said. “We’ve said it many times already this
afternoon, you probably couldn’t script something like that. “After our game, we sat on the ground waiting, [WRFL radio commentator] Kevin Hillier was on the phone waiting for a result to come through and we heard that St Albans were up by two points with maybe a minute to go, the next minute we heard it was one point and then we heard that St Albans got up, which meant we were through. “It’s bizarre for St Albans to get beaten by Wyndhamvale one week and then to beat a solid team like Altona. “We’re pretty thankful for what they were able to do.” Werribee Districts were unusually subdued in the first half against Albion. The Tigers kicked just 2.4 and were not playing with their usual intensity. Word got to the Tigers players that St Albans was putting up a good fight, which sparked them into action. “It was just such a no-atmosphere game, the game was just being played out and we ended up getting 30-odd points down,” Dean said. “Then at half-time, we heard a bit of a rumour that St Albans had jumped Altona and were in front.
“I don’t know if our mindset or attitude changed to the game, but we were able to fight our way back and get the win. “It was just the attack on the football and the pressure we applied on them when they had the ball completely changed.” Chris Molivas was a game changer for Werribee Districts, kicking four goals. Molivas did it all, offering drive on the wing and a marking option when resting forward. “He was dangerous all day, he always is and he’s hard to match up on,” Dean said. If Molivas was the match winner, Nathan Black was the saviour. Had it not been for Black’s defensive work, the Tigers could well have been too far behind to launch a comeback. “He was crucial to us in staying in the contest,” Dean said. “He really mopped up, took a lot of intercept marks and won us the ball back and got in third man up in some of the contests to kill the ball.” Werribee Districts will go into its elimination final showdown with Hoppers Crossing with a nothing-to-lose mentality. The Tigers could even have a little psychological edge, having beaten the Warriors in both meetings this season. “The pressure will be more on them than us,” Dean said.
Hoppers Crossing tuned up for the Western Region Football League division 1 finals with a big 107-point win over Wyndhamvale at Hogans Road Reserve on Saturday. The Warriors took control of the Wyndham derby from the outset, kicking seven goals to nil in the opening term to lead by 46 points at quarter-time. The margin blew out to a massive 108 by three-quarter time before Wyndhamvale showed some resistance in the last term. Small forward Jordan Mead was dangerous for Hoppers Crossing with six goals, while big man Wayde Skipper kicked four. Adam Poland, Matthew Smith and Daniel Riosa were the standouts for the Warriors. Hoppers Crossing went into the day hopeful of snatching third spot and a finals double chance, but the final round did not pan out the way it wanted. Third-placed Sunshine Kangaroos upset Deer Park and did so by a comfortable 52 points. Hoppers Crossing went into the round level on points with the Roos, but with 9.54 worse percentage. Not even the percentage-boosting win over Wyndhamvale was enough for the Warriors to bridge the gap. Wyndhamvale ended a tough season with the wooden spoon. In division 2, Manor Lakes went down to Albanvale by 17 points in a last round upset. The two sides will cross paths again in the elimination final this weekend. In division 3, Tarneit had a resounding 117-point win over wooden spooners the Laverton Magpies at Wootten Road Reserve. Chris Benson and Aaron Molivas kicked five goals apiece for the Titans. The Titans will face Sunshine Heights in the elimination final. Wyndham Suns had an off day against Sunshine Heights, losing by 10 points at Goddard Street Reserve. The Suns will face Parkside in a semi-final. The senior game between Sanctuary Lakes and Braybrook had to be abandoned after an ugly incident in the third quarter at Featherbrook Reserve. An ambulance was called to treat a Sharks player who needed urgent medical assistance after the incident. Earlier in the day, the reserves game between the same two sides was abandoned after a separate incident. In a media statement, Sanctuary Lakes president Gavin Young deplored the “cowardly acts of a minority” that ruined both games. Lance Jenkinson 81 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ AUGUST 23, 2017

World beckons for weightlifter Teagan Newman has made extraordinarily fast progress as a weightlifter. A year ago, Newman was using the sport as an extra training strand to bolster her athletics career, in which she excelled at the discus and hammer throw. After a chat with track and field coach Brent Vallance about her potential as a weightlifter, Newman decided to change course and take up weightlifting full-time. Since then, the personal best lifts and the honours have been stacking up for Newman, confirming to her that weightlifting is where her future lies. Newman’s first major competition was last year’s national championships, in which she delivered an eye-opening fourth-place finish. That was achieved on one day a week training and without the expert guidance of the coaches at the Hawthorn Weightlifting Club. At that stage, Newman was lifting about 112 kilograms, but that has improved exponentially in the months since. “Now my PB is 137 kilograms,” Newman
said. “To see my improvement over the nine months or so before I got the PB, it showed me that I can progress in leaps and bounds over the next few years. If I can improve that quickly, it will be good to see how I can improve over the next few years.” Newman represented Victoria for a second time on the national stage this year. Her lift of 137 kilograms was enough to take out the 69-75 kilogram class. The 19-year-old is now rated one of the rising stars of Australian weightlifting. “It was great to see my improvement over the months because I didn’t expect to go to nationals and win,” Newman said. “I actually won by 16 kilograms. “They have a rankings system on the Australian Weightlifting Federation site and I’m ranked sixth in Australia for most improved.” Newman, a postwoman from Hoppers Crossing, has qualified to represent Australia at the Commonwealth Oceania Junior Championships on the Gold Coast next month. “That’s my first big step,” said Newman, who
is coached by Anthony Dove. “I’m quietly nervous, but I’m determined to do the best that I can. I’m hoping to go out there and get another PB because I’ve been training hard for it.” Newman is targeting Australian representation for next year’s World Junior Championships. She thinks the 2018 Commonwealth Games is out of reach, but is determined to make it to the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. Newman is the August nominee of the Deeble Rising Star Award. The award, hosted by the Sunshine Western Region Sports Club and Star Weekly Weekly, recognises young athletes from the western suburbs who have achieved outstanding results at state and/ or national levels. Newman will receive $1000, donated by the Yarraville Club Cricket Club, and other prizes to assist her in achieving her sports goals. Lance Jenkinson
Reds fire in goal spree By Lance Jenkinson Hoppers Crossing unleashed its full arsenal in a 6-1 demolition job on Geelong Rangers in the Football Federation Victoria men’s state league 2. The Reds were on-song from the first whistle to the last at Myers Reserve on Saturday as they stretched their unbeaten run to six games. It was the Reds’ fourth win in that time and it has the second-placed side keeping pace with ladder leader Altona City, with both teams on 47 points with two games remaining. City holds a slender +2 advantage in goal difference. Another complete performance left Reds coach Shaun Barbara delighted on Saturday night. “I can’t really complain about the performance, to be honest,” he said. “It was just good all round.” While Hoppers Crossing was in total control for the first 45 minutes, a 15-minute period after the break gave them reason to sweat. The Rangers applied the pressure on the Hoppers Crossing defence and halved the deficit with a goal. “Any team that is 2-0 down at half-time, on their home ground, you know they are going to come out hard,” Barbara said. “They’re a proud side, a good side, so I have no doubt they wouldn’t have been too happy with their first half. “They certainly came out and threw everything at us in that first 15 minutes of the second half. “We had to weather the storm after they scored and [we] were under the pump for a bit. But we were able to get a third goal and the boys never looked back from that point on.” Once the Reds got rolling again, they were unstoppable. Alister Smart banged in two goals, while Ben Sardelic, Kwaku Dade, Matthew Scott and Daryl Roach also got in on the scoring act. It turned into a pummelling on the scoreboard, but not by design. “We’ve made it very clear that we want three points – it’s as simple as that,” Barbara said. “If the goals come, fantastic, but it’s certainly not something we sit there and say this is our target, we need to get X amount of goals.” Hoppers Crossing has been the entertainer of the division. The Reds have scored 59 goals at a touch under three a game. They have banged in 11 goals in the past two games, which has seen them make up a considerable amount of goal difference on Altona City. Barbara will always ensure his team plays an attacking brand of soccer. 82 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ AUGUST 23, 2017

“The boys don’t have restrictions placed on them that subconsciously hold them back,” Barbara said. “That freedom allows the players to express themselves and allows them to put themselves in good goal-scoring opportunities.
“We’re creating a lot of chances, and fortunately our boys up front and through the middle are putting them away.” Hoppers Crossing will have two weeks to prepare for its September 2 clash with Essendon United at JH Allen Reserve.

Bees crippled in humiliating demolition In a hellish final 45 minutes Werribee City sank to a 5-1 defeat to Moreland Zebras in its last home game of the National Premier League 2 west season at Galvin Park Reserve on Sunday. The Bees went into the half-time break with a lead on the back of a Cameron Davies goal, but they were on the receiving end of some Zebras fury in the second half after they slotted home five goals in 45 minutes. It was a loss that cost the Bees a rung on the ladder, dropping to eighth. The Bees will round out their season away to mid-table Ballarat City at Morshead Park Stadium on Saturday. In state league 4, Point Cook moved to the top of the ladder after a 4-0 win on the road over Bell Park at the Bell Park Sports Club on Saturday. Jonny Dunn was the star of the show for the Jets with a double. Dunn has scored nine goals in 16 games this season, including five in his past four games. The Jets will get a chance to lap up their one-point lead for two weeks with the state leagues having a catch-up round this weekend. Their next game will be a tough one against North Melbourne Athletic at Saltwater Reserve on September 2. Truganina Hornets have staved off the threat of relegation. The Hornets picked up a point in a nil-all draw with Melton Phoenix at MacPherson Park on Saturday, but survival was confirmed when second-last Newmarket Phoenix lost to Surf Coast. In women’s state league 3, it was a bizarre weekend for Point Cook, but an unforgettable one. The Jets were scheduled to play St Albans Saints on Friday night, but someone forgot to mark the lines on the pitch, so the game had to be postponed to this weekend’s catch-up round. While the Jets did not take to the field, second-placed Spring Hills did and had a draw with Melbourne University. It was also a big result for Hoppers Crossing, who won 5-0 over Maribyrnong Swifts and leap-frogged Spring Hills into second. Julia Budiongo-Batota scored a hat-trick for the Reds. Lance Jenkinson

MODEL RANGE
While North Korea is intent on firing missiles across the bows of any foreign nation state within range, neighbouring South Korea goes on capturing hearts and minds worldwide with quality products. Those products are no better represented than by the third generation Hyundai i30 hatch, which recently arrived in Australia. The six-time Australia’s Best Car winner comes with LED headlamps, wireless smartphone charging and heated and ventilated front seats. The entry-level Active sets the value-for-money trend at $20,950, with range running through to Elite, Premium, SR and SR Premium. Alloy wheels debut as standard across the i30 range, with 16- and 17-inch alloys on Active, Elite and Premium and 18s on SR and SR Premium. Out test vehicle was the range-topping SR Premium, which sells for $33,950, plus on-road costs. The new i30 has the latest version of Hyundai’s so-called Fluidic Sculpture styling and uses a new version of the company’s signature grille. The sporting flavour of the SR Premium exterior is extended to the passenger cabin, with exclusive sports front seats with extended bolsters offering greater lateral support. A rather sombre black colour scheme is lightened somewhat by contrasting red stitching on the seats, red trim highlights and distinctive red seatbelts. Hyundai recently launched a world-first smartphone app that helps new i30 owners become better drivers. Standard on all new i30 variants, Hyundai Auto Link connects the

Also across the new Hyundai i30 range is electronic stability control, which includes traction control, anti-lock braking with electronic brake-force distribution, brake assist and hill-start assist. Settling into the sports seats of an SR automatic resulted in the i30’s promotion to the premier league of sporty hatchbacks to the accompaniment of a distinctive rorty (some may say harsh) note in keeping with its premium performance credentials. The new i30’s on-road dynamics have benefitted from exhaustive testing and development for local conditions and driver preferences – and it shows. The i30’s stability in handling and ride comfort were hard to fault in day-to-day driving. So well presented, equipped and priced is the Hyundai i30 SR Premium that a speedy run up the sales charts has ensued.

Holden on to long history By Ewan Kennedy, Marque Motoring
‘‘
I’m really looking forward to seeing the turnout
’’
- Mark Berhard
“Holden is one of Australia’s most iconic brands,” he said. “We built the auto industry in this country and Australia grew up with Holden. “We’re incredibly proud of that heritage and committed to building a future that honours our past. “We may not be building cars locally, but the retention of our engineering team, our international design studios and our vehicle testing facility are just a few examples of Holden’s ongoing commitment to Australia and our customers. “I’m really looking forward to seeing the turnout – to see what special and restored vehicles take part and talking about all things Holden with our loyal supporters.” For more information, got to: holdendreamcruise.com.au
The Holden Dream Cruise will feature the first six models (top) and the 2017 Holden Commodore range. (Pictures: Supplied)

Holden enthusiasts have been invited to show their pride in the marque by taking part in the Holden Dream Cruise on the streets of northern Adelaide on Sunday, October 15. The Holden Dream Cruise will be a giant street parade of Holden cars followed by a family fun day with displays, entertainment, food and a show ’n’ shine competition. It will be led by the first and last cars built in Australia by Holden – a 1948 48/215 and a 2017 VF Commodore. Holden is encouraging owners of classic and iconic Holdens to register. Owners of the FJ, EH, HD, Kingswood, Torana, Monaro, Sandman, Commodore and the Holden Ute models will be particularly welcome. But owners of all vehicles made or assembled by Holden in Australia are eligible. The Holden Dream Cruise will wind its way from the Elizabeth City shopping centre and past Holden’s vehicle operations plant on Philip Highway, Elizabeth. It will culminate in a family fun day and show ’n’ shine at Central District Football Club’s oval at Elizabeth South. The Holden Dream Cruise will feature numerous viewing locations along its 10-kilometre route, plus plenty of opportunities to get up close to the spectacular cars at the family event. Holden executive of manufacturing Richard Phillips said the Holden Dream Cruise was not just an event for owners of classic Holden
cars made in Australia, but also for the wider community. “We want to hold an event that recognises the large community of people who care about the brand, its manufacturing heritage and its future,” he said. Holden chairman and managing director Mark Bernhard said the Holden Dream Cruise was about honouring the brand’s long-standing heritage.
