Family lose everything in house fire 0439 377 099 THERE’S BEEN an outpouring of support and kindness towards a South Murwillumbah family and local business owners who lost everything in house fire at Railway Street on Monday morning. The family are appealing for help to get back on their feet after a fast-moving fire destroyed their
home and Valley E-Bikes and Pedals & Picnics premises leaving the property in ruins. Mick Parkhill and partner Britt Ladley said they had lost everything, but are determined to rebuild their lives and business, which will temporarily operate from a neighbour’s Railway Street property

Help needed after fire destroys family home and local business A SOUTH Murwillumbah family has been left devastated after a fast-moving fire tore through their Railway Street home and iconic local business early Monday morning, claiming the lives of their two beloved dogs and leaving owner Mick Parkhill seriously injured. Fire and Rescue NSW was called to 8 Railway Street at about 3.30am on August 31, with the first crew from Murwillumbah Station 391 arriving to find smoke pouring from the lower garage area. Fire and Rescue Duty Commander (Region North Two) Fraser Hindry said crews quickly discovered the property was well alight. The three residents managed to escape after smoke alarms activated, but Mr Parkhill returned downstairs after discovering e-bikes charging and batteries on the bikes were on fire. “We believe he went back upstairs to get his partner and son to safety before returning to the burning property in an attempt to save the family’s two dogs,” Mr Hindry said. “Tragically, the dogs retreated into the fire and perished.” Mr Parkhill suffered burns, smoke inhalation and a head injury while attempting to rescue Bailey and Ruby, the family’s much-loved Cavoodles. Mr Parkhill was taken to hospital and spent time in intensive care before being discharged on Tuesday, September 1, and is now recovering. “It was a very significant fire when crews arrived,” Mr Hindry said. “Additional crews arrived about 3.45am, including firefighters from Mullumbimby, while specialist Hazmat crews attended due to concerns about asbestos. “A drone was also deployed to give firefighters an overall view of the property and identify remaining hot spots. “Firefighters battled the blaze for about
two hours before it was brought under complete control.” The home was extensively damaged, with sections of the building partially collapsing, while neighbours were assessed by Fire and Rescue NSW. The fire has also struck at the heart of the South Murwillumbah community, destroying the home and premises associated with Valley E-Bikes Pedals & Picnics, a familiar local business operated by Mr Parkhill and Britt Ladley. “We lost absolutely everything,” Mick told The Weekly. “I went to hospital in my underwear and have no clothing or other personal items — they all went in the fire.” The couple had only recently completed a major renovation of the property and were preparing to raise the home above flood level in October. Despite losing their home, belongings and business premises, Mick and Britt are determined to get Valley E-Bikes and Pedals & Picnics operating again. Murf Electric Bikes at Tweed Heads has provided the business with 25 e-bikes to help keep it operating while the family begins to rebuild. “We are so grateful to Murf Electric Bikes at Tweed Heads, who has helped in such a big way to keep Valley E-Bikes operating,” Mick said. The business will temporarily operate from Railway Street inside a neighbour’s property, with signage to direct customers. Mick and Britt are asking the community to continue supporting Valley E-Bikes by hiring a bike and enjoying the Tweed Valley, while also supporting Murf Electric Bikes. Neighbours Sharon, Kevin and Ursula have established a GoFundMe campaign to help the family rebuild and get their lives and business back on track. The campaign, titled “Help Mick and Britt Rebuild”, is aiming to raise funds to support the family following the dev-

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root made out of titanium, a biocompatible material surgically placed into the jaw bone. Dental Implants offer a secure solution to replace one or more teeth, providing a solid foundation for holding a crown, bridge, or denture. They look, feel and function like natural teeth. They are recommended to improve aesthetics, function (chewing) and speech. And they’re also easy to keep clean — just like your other teeth.

What a catch!
After a lull from returning whale watching, local fisher Dane Miller of Pottsville provided a bit of excitement on the Hastings Point lookout on Saturday morning, August 29 (see pictured). Dane landed this awesome long tail tuna off the rocks. A mighty challenge between man and beast for around 25 minutes and, thanks to a couple of extra helping hands, he landed this beauty. Well done Dane, who had experienced a fishy lull of his own and for the exciting entertainment. The tuna was approximately one metre long and weighed about 18 to 20kgs. Cheers. A Chant, Pottsville

I don’t think anyone would argue that the division in council is good for the Tweed Shire, however, I applaud the three councillors who tried to get a 50-metre pool at Tweed Heads. I fully support a pool and indoor basketball complex with a multipurpose room at Recreation Street, Tweed Heads. I do not support the facility containing a wellness centre, gym or allied health rooms. Numerous wellness centres and gyms already exist in the Tweed Heads and Tweed Heads South areas. The PYC complex was just renovated last year and is approximately 800-metres from the proposed Indoor complex. I would say this matter has shown why a division/ward style council (like Gold Coast Council) is more effective. Each councillor works for their area, rather than representing a certain par-

The recent article on proposed changes to Gold Coast Airport flight paths (led by Airservices Australia) was very informative (TVW, August 27, page1, 3 and 6), but there is a bigger issue that deserves public discussion. Airservices Australia has spent years trying to reduce the impact of flight paths on communities south of the airport, and there is good reason for this. Around 50,000–60,000 people already live in the main Tweed communities beneath or close to the southern flight paths, roughly twice the population of comparable communities immediately north of the airport runway. Tweed communities are also growing, particularly around Cobaki, Terranora and Bilambil. Previous attempts to reduce aircraft noise have not always worked as intended. A trial around Banora Point was abandoned after it concentrated flights over Farrants Hill, and the Runway 32 offset route has itself been moved further over water. Airservices is now considering substantially increasing its use. Why now, and what has changed? These questions are particularly important when Gold Coast Airport expects passenger numbers to more than double, from about 6.2 million to 13 million a year by 2044. Much of the impact of that growth, in terms of aircraft noise, will be felt in the Tweed, while decisions about the airport and its flight paths are largely made by Commonwealth agencies and organisations centred in Queensland. This places a particular responsibility on Tweed Shire Council. Council has made strong commitments to protecting the Tweed’s environment and the wellbeing of its

communities, while also planning for substantial residential growth in areas affected by aircraft noise. Although Council does not control the airport or its airspace, it should be a strong advocate for its residents and ensure the cumulative impact of airport growth and aircraft noise on the Tweed is properly considered in decisions made elsewhere. David Battersby, Tweed Heads West
We can’t afford either
The raising of the Doon Doon dam wall is well over $300 million. Costs have risen. That cost rise does not seem to wave a red flag to council. A fortnight ago the North Sydney Pool refurbishment opened. It was a refurbishment, the pool was already there, no digging holes and erecting buildings and it cost $122 million with a pre estimated of $58 million. The only person with any sense, in my view, is Katie Milne who sees the real cost of things. Everyone is going to go broke with a sports centre in a staged situation or with a sports centre and a pool centre together. We can’t afford it either way. Council rates would have to be double what they are now. This is not the final costing. Costs are still increasing and going up. We are developing for the super-rich. Remember Tweed is a low socioeconomic area. We are dreaming. People are coming here to live, but they are not rich people, they are middle-class Labor people. Len Heggarty, Tweed Heads
Old hospital should become high rise
Why isn’t the old Tweed hospital site being used for the infrastructure proposed for Cudgen? It would ease the traffic and parking problems in Cudgen. The proposed high rise for the site only helps 80 families and 720 rich families, in my view, to have waterfront homes.
If the NSW Government really wants to help the Tweed community, it should flip this scenario to make 720 units for families that need housing and 80 units for those that can afford it to use as housing. As a Tweed resident I do not want high rise built near the ocean or rivers, but way back so everyone can enjoy our beautiful coastline and not just stare at glass, concrete and be in shadows. Jenny Greenwood, Tweed Heads
Flight path seems like no brainer
Just wondering if The Weekly will be investigating the new Gold Coast Airport (Airservices Australia) proposals which is currently in a consultation period (TVW, August 27, Page 1, 3 and 6). It would be great if we could better understand the reasons behind the proposals, as they are presented in very simply and seem to be a “no-brainer” to proceed, given it seems fewer aircraft will be flying over the more densely populated areas in Kingscliff/Casuarina and there will be fuel efficiencies and lower emissions. My concern is, and this is just speculating, is there a hidden agenda not being discussed? Why have the aircraft not always used this approach? I will make submissions to the Q&A forum but thought I would share with you in case it has not yet filtered through. Lindsay Tyler, Tweed Heads
I write against Woolworths in town
I’d like to echo Mike Rainer’s letter: “Woolworths are back in town (Murwillumbah)” in The Weekly on August 20. As a long-time resident and Tweed Shire Council (TSC) former general manager, Mike is well informed to give his objecting opinion. Also, whenever people talk about the need for more competition between corporations, the negative outcomes affect those who can least
afford it. After the recent flooding a report on the TSC website stated: “Properties along lower Condong Street experienced significant over-floor inundation (example up to 1.3 metres inside lower levels during the 2022 peak)”. During a flood the site would be inaccessible to shoppers (except by boat). If the whole site was to be filled, I believe this could negatively impact more properties. Also, as former Tweed mayor Katie Milne reminds us: “The bowling club site was gifted public land and should revert back to a public recreation zoning. Any new shopping centre on this site would be detrimental to the walkability of the town which is a key attribute of the economic and social functioning of this important heritage town, and integral to the historic charm of Murwillumbah.” Ari Ehrlich, Limpinwood
Rating second dwellings
I write in response to D Weston Allen’s letter in The Weekly last week (TVW, Letters, August 27). Before stating that a second home would increase that land’s valuation and thus its rates, perhaps Mr Allen should have checked with council. I did, and the officer confirmed that the rates are based on the unimproved value of the property. So, putting extra dwellings does not increase the general rates. While on the topic of future housing, the projected household size in 2041 is three or less persons for more than a three quarters of households (for one or two persons this figure is 63 per cent). So why is the majority of future housing stock still four bedrooms? Rolf Kuelsen, Murwillumbah

Calls for micro abattoirs By Jonathon Howard

fed, contained no hormone growth promotants and had strong local provenance. “Animal welfare benefits from no transport, which minimises stress,” he said. Mr Dudgeon also pointed to NSW planning provisions for agritourism and farm-gate premises as a potential model for local producers to establish farm shops. However, he said local government planning requirements could present a significant hurdle for farmers seeking approval. Burringbar cattle farmer and NSW Farmers Association Far North Coast Branch chair Craig Huf said the organisation’s Northern Rivers branches had begun advocating for changes. “Two separate layers of regulation stand in the way: hygiene and licensing standards set by the NSW Food Authority, and planning approvals administered by local councils,” Mr Huf told The Weekly in response to Mr Dudgeon’s suggestion of allowing some operators to use micro abattoirs. “Pathways as they stand are workable only for large industrial processors, not family farms trying to sell locally.” Continued on page 8
00125 Tweed Valley Adventist College QP
SEVERAL TWEED and Northern Rivers farmers are calling for changes to regulations governing small-scale and micro abattoirs, warning the region’s food security is vulnerable and local producers have too few options to process their cattle. Longtime cattle farmer and Tweed Valley Real Estate owner Craig Dudgeon said the Tweed’s reliance on a small number of processors was becoming a growing concern and he believes micro abattoirs with strict regulations could hold the answers. “In the Northern Rivers our only option to process cattle is Casino, which is a great operator, but is at times overwhelmed with demand, and in Southern Queensland at Stanthorpe which add many kilometres to the process,” Mr Dudgeon said. He said Casino could make it harder to accept private cattle processing in future, leaving Northern Rivers producers without a nearby option. Mr Dudgeon said the COVID-19 pandemic had highlighted vulnerabilities in Australia’s food supply chains and there was now an opportunity to establish more small-scale micro-abattoirs for operators with the skills and licensing. “The industry is already heavily legislated and licensed, meaning only those that fill full the government requirements could undertake it,” he said. Currently, cattle can be processed on-farm for personal consumption only, but farm-gate sales are not permitted under the existing arrangements. Mr Dudgeon said allowing appropriately regulated micro-abattoirs and farm-gate sales could create jobs, reduce transport distances, keep money in local communities and provide consumers with greater access to locally produced food. He said his own Speckle Park beef was grass-

Cabarita’s much-loved Dr Kearney is retiring By Jo Kennett
MUCH-LOVED BOGANGAR doctor Robert Kearney is packing up Tweed Coast Medical and retiring after 29 years of serving the local community and 40 years working as a doctor. Dr Kearney has been the doctor for many born and bred locals and their families and joked their “funeral” will be on September 11, as they have been unable to find a doctor to take the practice over. He told The Weekly he grew up in Brisbane with his parents and four siblings. “I was the second youngest, so I had older siblings to teach me both good and bad habits,” he said. “After graduating from the University of Queensland, I worked around Queensland in a few different hospitals before going into general practice in Mackay for five years. “We then moved to Cabarita 29 years ago, where my wife Annette and I set up Tweed Coast Medical.” He said Mr George Davidson, a council member for Tweed, was instrumental in getting the practice up and running. “Because we had a tight budget, I was doing some of the building preparation work myself,” Dr Kearney told The Weekly. “I was doing the painting and looking quite messy when I treated my first patient, Mrs Frances McMahon. “She was a lovely elderly lady who came in asking when the doctor was starting. “I explained that I was the doctor and was able to supply her with her scripts, which were slightly paint-smeared.” The practice opened on Dr Kearney’ birthday in December 1998. “I remember my mother rang that day and was quite pleased when our receptionist told her I was busy seeing a patient,” he said. “She was worried that we may not have any
We have dealt with a lot of patients who have been through a lot of illness and major life changes, and hopefully we have been of some assistance where we can. patients at all. “It was a new adventure learning to run the business side of the practice, with the help of my wife, who was practice manager initially. “Having four children aged between two and five when we set up – yes, twins! – made for busy times. “Three of the children attended Pippies Daycare, which we found to be a very good centre.” Dr Kearney said the most unusual case he treated was a surfer who was bitten by a brown snake which was on the traffic island as he crossed the road. “He walked in wearing his wetsuit, board under his arm, dripping wet,” he said. “We proceeded to call the ambulance, and the hospital stated that he survived the bite because he kept his wetsuit on, which acted as a tourniquet.” Cabarita/Bogangar was a small town when he initially set up. “Heather Johansson’s shop was the beating heart of the town,” he said. “I understand Heather still lives in town and remains independent.
“We soon learnt that we had to be careful talking about anyone because often they were friends or related to the person we were talking to. “Once Woolies went in, the town became busier, but it still has the charm of a small town. “Unfortunately, I had a motor vehicle accident about four years after we set up, which put me out of action for about three months. “Dr Chaudhry, a GP from Kingscliff, graciously gave his spare time to help our patients.” Dr Kearney joked that, for a while, his practice was more like a car sales yard, as the practice manager was M Ford and the receptionists included G Nissan and S Carr. “Obviously, we have dealt with a lot of patients who have been through a lot of illness and major life changes, and hopefully we have been of some assistance where we can,” he said. “The five years spent working part-time at Murwillumbah Hospital in the Rehab Ward and the General Wards was a rewarding time, and I enjoyed working with some of the tremendous staff there. “Unfortunately, our practice funeral will be on September 14, as we were unable to find a doctor to take over. “We will be spending a few weeks after this sorting out paperwork and closing the practice.” Pottsville resident Colin Gage has been seeing Dr Kearney for 25 years and says that he will be missed. “He’s been a very good doctor,” Colin said. “He still actually does house calls out to an old farm to see this old person, we were talking about it a couple of months ago. “Everyone is different naturally and he understands everyone. “I’ll have to go to another doctor but I’ll miss my old mate.” Dr Kearney’s future plans include spending more time with his children. Three live “relatively locally”, with one daughter living in the UK, so he says a trip there may

be in order. “This area has been a great place to live, raise a family and get to know many of the locals,” he said. “We have no plans to move away, so future meetings with my ex-patients will hopefully be at the coffee shop.”

Mayor to pass the baton Micro abattoirs call By Jonathon Howard
TWEED MAYOR Mayor Chris Cherry will not seek re-election as mayor in September, ending a six-year tenure through some of the most challenging years in the shire’s history. Cr Cherry confirmed she would step aside at the September 17 mayoral election, saying it was time to give another councillor the opportunity to lead and put their stamp on a growing area. “After six years leading one of the fastest growing shires and biggest regional councils in NSW, I have decided that it is time to provide the opportunity for someone new to have a turn at the helm,” Cr Cherry told The Weekly. Cr Cherry has served four terms as mayor, with the first two contested elections followed by two terms in which she was elected unopposed. She intends to nominate Cr Reece Byrnes for the next two-year term, saying he had served as deputy mayor for five terms over the past decade and was ready to step into the role. “I intend to nominate Cr Byrnes for the role of mayor for the next two years,” she said. “He has served five terms as Deputy Mayor and demonstrated he is ready to step up to the role.” Cr Cherry’s time as mayor has been marked by COVID-19 border closures, drought, bushfires, the devastating 2022 floods and a cyclone. “I think it is time for a changeover during this peace time, so hopefully a new mayor will have time to find their feet before our next challenge,” she said. Despite the difficulties, Cr Cherry said she was proud of the achievements de-
“What I am most proud of is the way we have worked together to protect our World Heritage environment and to the special places we live” livered during her tenure, particularly the council’s industrial land swap, new depot, upgraded animal re-homing and waste transfer facilities and the progress of Kings Forest. She said the new depot, which opened earlier this year, was one of her proudest moments. “I am really proud of what we’ve achieved,” she said. “We have never received more grants than we have this year, and that is due to the good reputation of the council.” Cr Cherry also pointed to the recently exhibited Growth Management, Housing and Employment Strategy (GMHES) as an important road map for managing the shire’s rapid growth while protecting its environment. “I am proud of the way we have worked together to manage growth to protect our World Heritage environment and to protect the special places we live,” she said. “There is still a long way to go in terms of affordability and availability of housing but we are setting the road map to try to get there in the GMHES.” Cr Cherry said the role had been “exciting, humbling, challenging and fulfilling”, but acknowledged the personal toll of being mayor. “When you’re the mayor you carry a lot.
Job well done to outgoing Mayor Cherry
Mayor Cherry has faced a lot in six years and will remain a dedicated councillor
You feel the pain of the whole community,” she said. She nominated the ongoing animosity in the council chamber as the lowest point of her tenure, but said she had valued the support of councillors, staff and residents. “I know how important it is to have councillors supporting you as Mayor and working as a team and I will work to support whoever is elected as mayor into the role,” she said. Cr Cherry intends to remain on council and said she expected it would be “strange” returning to the role of councillor after six years as mayor. “This is not the end, it’s a new chapter,” she said.
Continued from page 3 He said the regulatory burden could force livestock raised in the Northern Rivers to travel long distances for processing. “The result is farcical: livestock raised in the Northern Rivers is trucked as far as Sydney for processing, adding needless food miles and cost with no real gain in food safety,” Mr Huf said. Mr Huf said the current system risked pushing smaller farms out of the market and increasing the dominance of large corporate processors. “NSW farmers branches in the Northern Rivers believe state and local governments need to revisit both sets of standards urgently so small producers can pursue simple paddock-to-plate pathways without being regulated out of business,” he said. The discussion followed The Land’s August 26 reports on growing interest in smaller-scale meat processing, with online commenters backing mobile and on-farm facilities. One described a mobile micro-abattoir to reduce livestock transport, while another called on-farm processing “brilliant” because of the potential for lower-stress handling. Others welcomed growing consumer support for small producers, while several said on-farm micro-abattoirs were already taking shape, including one farmer nearing completion of their facility. The Weekly follow up with the NSW Minister for Agriculture Tara Moriarty on the suggestions of micro and mobile abattoirs to get her thoughts on the matter. Minister Moriarty said mobile abattoirs are permitted to operate in NSW and must comply with all legislative requirements relating to regular abattoirs. “There are already two mobile abattoirs operating in NSW and the NSW Food Authority worked closely with these businesses to assist in their establishment,” she said. “These two businesses currently only process red meat. Processing of some species such as pigs requires additional and specialised steps.” The minister said due to the nature of an abattoir’s operations, “standards required to achieve a license to operate are relatively high, as would be the community’s expectation, to ensure animal welfare, health and hygiene outcomes are met”. “Mobile abattoirs operating in NSW are also required to comply with waste and planning requirements controlled through local councils and the NSW Environment Protection Authority,” she said. YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe the NSW Government should further explore mirco abattoirs and their viability for locals to process their own cattle? The Weekly is interested in your thoughts and letters via email: editor@theweekly.net.au

Another battery fire! Injured boaties rescued By Jo Kennett
DESPITE MULTIPLE warnings from authortise not to throw out batteries another fire broke out in a rubbish truck at Pottsville on Monday, August 31, endangering the life of the driver. The driver managed to tip the load when he noticed the smoke coming from the truck on Overall Drive, where it erupted into flames. It was the same location where another rubbish truck caught fire last September. Local firefighting volunteers from Tweed Coast RFS attended the blaze. It was the third fire in a rubbish truck in the Tweed Shire in a month, according to Council’s Rod Dawson, Unit Coordinator - Resource Recovery. “Council has been lobbying the state and federal government for the past six months seeking to have us included in the trial for the drop off of toys, tools and devices with rechargeable batteries in them,” he told The Weekly. “As yet we have been unsuccessful, however there is work being done at state and federal levels on this. “Council can accept batteries including lith-
ium batteries up to 20 kg at the Stotts Creek Resource Recovery Centre. “The site has also introduced policies and procedures to deal with damaged batteries to mitigate the risks. “The site cannot accept electric vehicle batteries that must be returned to the manufacturer.” Battery recycling drop-off points for common household batteries, including AA, AAA and button cells, are available at many supermarkets, including Pottsville Foodworks. Tweed Shire residents can also drop off batteries for free at Stotts Creek Resource Recovery Centre. The facility accepts normal car batteries (not EVs), cordless batteries (lithium), household batteries and laptop batteries (lithium), as well as other e-waste. Electronic waste is also accepted at some electronic stores.

THREE BOATIES have been winched to safety, one critically injured, after their catamaran capsized off Fingal Head on Thursday, August 27. The incident happened at around 5.30pm when, according to the crew, a strong gust of wind knocked the 15-meter pleasure craft Tangles over. Fortunately the crew managed to activate their distress beacon (EPIRB). The three family members, believed to be a father, son and uncle from Port Stephens, had been floating on the overturned vessel for approximately two hours when the Westpac Lifesaver Rescue Helicopter arrived at the vessel. Officers attached to NSW Marine Area Command, Marine Rescue NSW and Surf Life Saving Queensland Westpac Rescue Helicopter Lifesaver 36 responded to the emergency call and found the crew clinging to the upturned hull of the yacht approximately six kilometres off Fingal Head. “We had about 25 knot gusting southerlies and about two metre swells out there,” Surf Life Saving Queensland aircrewman Brendan Scoffell said. “The pilot and aircrewmen were working very hard to get me onto the boat.” In what was described as an “extremely complex rescue,” the crew had to be winched oneby-one and flown to the seawall at Kirra Beach where they were met by waiting lifeguards and NSW Ambulance paramedics. The first man to be rescued had to be winched from the water and flown to land, leaving the other two crew behind, as his injuries were so severe. The men, who had been thrown into the ocean when the boat flipped, were assessed at Kirra

by the NSW Ambulance paramedics. One man in his 70s, suffering a life-threatening head injury, was rushed to the Gold Coast University Hospital in a critical condition. His condition was l ater described as stable. Another 69-year-old man sustained a neck injury and was also suffering from hypothermia, while the third man aged 40 was suffering from hypothermia. They were both transported to Gold Coast University Hospital in a stable condition. Rescuers credited the men for being prepared and having their EPIRB ready to activate in the challenging conditions. The catamaran had been on its way from the Central Coast to the Gold Coast when the accident happened.

SOUTH MURWILLUMBAH residents will have their chance to help shape the future of their flood-impacted neighbourhood, with a new master planning process to begin next month. The consultation comes more than four years after the devastating 2022 floods, with The Weekly having closely followed South Murwillumbah’s long and often difficult recovery since the major flood events. While the Resilient Homes Program has resulted in the voluntary acquisition of a significant amount of flood-prone residential land, the next phase will focus on what can be done with the properties now that they cannot be returned to residential use. The process has not been without frustration among some South Murwillumbah residents, with locals previously raising concerns about the pace and complexity of the recovery, as well as reports of break-ins, looting of acquired properties and other anti-social behaviour in areas left vacant following the buybacks. Now, Tweed Shire Council and the NSW Reconstruction Authority are joining forces to develop a South Murwillumbah Master Plan, following the establishment of a new Community Reference Group. The plan will investigate opportunities for the acquired land to become open space, recreation areas, environmental restoration projects, active transport links and improved local amenities. It will also consider stronger connections between South Murwillumbah and the main town centre, including links to the state heritage-listed Murwillumbah Railway Station, Northern Rivers Rail Trail and Prospero Street commercial precinct. Minister for Recovery Janelle Saffin said the process represented an opportunity to rethink the neighbourhood for future generations. “South Murwillumbah has shown incredible resilience since 2022, and this master plan is
a genuine opportunity to reimagine what this neighbourhood looks like for decades to come,” Ms Saffin said. “The land cannot return to residential use, but it presents opportunities for vibrant green spaces, recreational hubs and environmental corridors that benefit everyone.” Tweed Shire Mayor Chris Cherry said the floods had created a “once-in-a-generation chance” to reconsider how flood-prone land could be used. “We want to hear from residents, businesses, community groups and everyone with a connection to South Murwillumbah about what matters most to them,” Cr Cherry said. Community pop-ups will be held at Tweed Valley IGA on September 12, Murwillumbah Railway Station on September 26 and the Murwillumbah Showgrounds Market on September 27. Residents will also be able to book one-onone listening sessions with the project team, while key community and business groups will participate in a dedicated design workshop. Online feedback will be accepted through Your Say Tweed until 5pm on September 27. Feedback will inform a draft master plan to return to the community for further consultation in February 2027, before the final outcomes are used to inform a formal planning proposal to rezone the land.

Council trivia Did you get last week's question right? Answer: D. Many items commonly placed in the red bin actually belong in the recycling or green organics bin. Drink containers and clean paper or cardboard can be recycled, while lawn clippings and food scraps should go in the green organics bin. Placing the right items in the right bins helps reduce landfill and recover valuable resources. Use Council's Waste Wizard to find out how to dispose of items – tweed.nsw.gov.au/waste-wizard
The raising of Clarrie Hall Dam is the largest project in Council's draft capital works program.
Clarrie Hall Dam leads $1.4 billion works plan Raising Clarrie Hall Dam, upgrading 2 wastewater treatment plants and widening Tweed Coast Road are among the largest projects in Council's draft capital works program, worth $687 million over the next 4 years and $1.4 billion over the next decade. The program sits inside Council's draft 2026–27 Long Term Financial Plan, which sets clear priorities: • firstly, maintain and renew what the Tweed already has • secondly, prioritise the new obligations that come with development to meet the greatest need and remain finanically sustainable. That means keeping roads, water and wastewater services, parks and community facilities at the standard the community expects. A service review is also underway to confirm how Council will keep delivering those services as the Shire grows. Growth brings its own costs. Council is working with specialist consultants to forecast what it will take to maintain new parks, gardens and public infrastructure in emerging communities such as Kings Forest, and what that could mean for rates, before any decisions are made.
The largest projects in the long term program are: • Clarrie Hall Dam raising, $304 million • flood restoration works, $108 million • Murwillumbah Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) upgrade, $87 million • waste facility upgrades and remediation, $75 million • large plant replacements, $58 million • Hastings Point WWTP upgrade, $47 million • Tweed Coast Road widening, $26 million • PEL Area 6 rezoning and development, $20 million. Council's Corporate Services directorate said the plan was about knowing the full cost of building, maintaining and operating things before committing to them. "Every new park, road and pipe costs money to look after long after it opens, and those costs stay with the community for decades," Tim Mackney, Director Engineering said. "Our job is to understand that bill before we commit, so the services people rely on today are still here for their children." Visit tweed.nsw.gov.au/construction-projects for more information.
Murwillumbah Street tree planting starts 7 September As part of Council's ongoing tree planting program, works will commence on Monday 7 September along Murwillumbah Street, with temporary parking changes in place while new street trees are planted. Access to businesses will be maintained and works contained to parking bays to keep the area moving safely for residents, visitors and local businesses. These new trees are an investment in Murwillumbah's future. Over time, they will provide shade, help reduce
heat, and create a greener, more welcoming town centre for everyone to enjoy. We appreciate the community's patience and understanding while these works are completed and thank you for supporting a cooler, greener Tweed. The planting is part of Council's Cool Towns – Tweed Shire Urban Forest Program. For details, visit yoursaytweed.com.au/cool-towns or tweed.nsw.gov.au/upcoming-planned-works or call 02 6670 2400 for more information.
The wait is finally over – it's time to get your party on, Tweed! The Tweed's biggest street celebration returns to Queensland Road, Murwillumbah on Saturday 5 September from 3 to 8 pm. The much-loved Street Party will transform the town centre into a vibrant festival of live music, art, food and entertainment, featuring performances by Buttered, Birren, Ella Fence, Benny O'Dwyer and Stiz Fusion. This year's event also includes The Light Within, a large-scale art installation by Matthew Aberline and Beautiful and Useful Studio, alongside creative workshops, cultural activities and interactive experiences for all ages. Visitors can enjoy street food and sweet treats from local vendors, relax at the Street Party Bar hosted by Earth Beer Company and Husk Distillers, and
explore trivia, storytelling and museum curiosities throughout the event. Roaming performers, a silent disco and surprise pop-up acts will add to the festival atmosphere. Bring your family and friends and celebrate local creativity, culture and community in the heart of Murwillumbah. For event updates, follow Tweed Regional Museum on Instagram and Facebook.

Have your say South Murwillumbah Master Plan Tweed Shire Council and the NSW Reconstruction Authority are working together to develop the South Murwillumbah Master Plan. This plan seeks to outline a shared vision for the future of the South Murwillumbah and the Murwillumbah Railway Station precincts. It includes land voluntarily purchased through the Resilient Homes Program after the 2022 floods. Shaped by your perspectives, the master plan will provide a framework for future land uses that support a safer, stronger and more resilient community.

MEMBER FOR Richmond Justine Elliot has announced that the Albanese Labor Government is delivering more than $4.6 million in federal funding from the 2026-27 Black Spot Program to improve road safety at four sites across the North Coast. The road upgrade projects receiving funding include three locations in the Tweed Shire: • Bilambil: $1,087,320 to install a semi-rigid roadside barrier at Bilambil Road 70 metres west of Beltana Drive for a length of 530 metres to reduce the high risk for run-off crashes. • Condong: $1,843,978 to install a roundabout at Tweed Valley Way at Clothiers Creek Road to reduce crashes, unsafe gaps and predicted future significant congestion. • C lothiers Creek: $1,246,680 to install semi-rigid roadside barriers at Clothiers Creek Road between Yandala Place and 897 Clothiers Creek Road to reduce hazards and loss-of-control crashes. • Mullumbimby Creek: $519,000 for road safety improvements at Left Bank Road 100 metres west of Tuckeroo Avenue for a length of 1.85 kilometres to reduce serious crashes including fatality due to poor alignment, no shoulders and poor visibility.

The centre will also offer birthday parties, school holiday activities, Date Night events and Free Play sessions. The owners are currently recruiting local coaches across gymnastics, fitness, Ninja, parkour and other movement disciplines. Foundation memberships are now available ahead of the September opening, with an introductory offer including two weeks free and discounted enrolment. Andrew said the aim was to create a place where children could discover activities they genuinely enjoyed. “Sometimes they just haven’t found their thing yet,” he said. Classes are based on tiers and how many classes, one class is $29, two classes is $34.95 and three classes is $38.95 per week. “We are also offering something for parents, our new Fit Family program which allows parents to work out with their children, as well as a class for mums and dads with their baby,” Susie said. “We want to be a one-stop fitness shop for kids and families to come to one location and experience a range of activities.” The team is excited to open the largest MyFirstGym in Australia right here in the Tweed.

TWEED FAMILIES will soon have a new option to keep children active, with an 800-square-metre kids fitness facility set to open at Tweed Heads South, offering everything from gymnastics and Ninja Warrior to parkour and functional fitness. This is an exciting new option for young kids to try a range of movement and fitness activities to keep them engaged and interested at great rates MyFirstGym (MFG) Tweed will open in late September at 13–17 Rivendell Drive, catering for children from seven months through to 15-years old. The new facility will feature four dedicated training arenas and is being launched by local couple Andrew and Susie Gow and their business partners Aaron and Claire, from the Central Coast. The idea came partly from the couple’s own experience raising two boys, aged eight and 10, with one of their children not interested in traditional team sports. “One of our boys just isn’t interested in playing soccer or team sports, so we started looking for something else that would suit him,” Andrew said. “What we found was that once kids get a little older, there aren’t always a lot of options outside traditional sports.” Susie said the facility would allow children to try different activities without committing to a single sport for an entire season or term. “With one membership, they can choose from a range of classes,” she said. “They might do Ninja Warrior one-week, functional fitness or parkour another, or

Youth and seniors connecting BELIEVE IT or not we can learn a lot from each other across the generations. And it’s that pool of knowledge that has prompted an exciting new mentorship program that’s breaking down social barriers. Students from Murwillumbah High School have been paired with retired volunteers during Term 3 in a co-mentoring programme provided through the Tweed Shire Council Senior Ambassador award. The idea is to assist both groups to understand each other’s perspectives and build connection, something which we seem to have lost intergenerationally. Participating has resulted in them finding out surprising things about themselves and each
other and realising that they have similarities as well as differences. One activity was for the pairs to interview and write a short profile of each other. These profiles show that both groups have been intrigued to compare their experiences and views across the generational divide. The names of the students have been reduced to initials for privacy reasons, but we hope that their personalities and ways of expressing themselves still shine through. This series will appear regularly in The Weekly who have kindly offered the space. We hope you enjoy them and would love to hear your thoughts and feedback via email to: editor@theweekly.net.au

"Youth is the gift of nature, but age is a work of art." STANISLAW JERZY LEC
Elder Paul on Student A
Student A on Elder PAUL
Student A is interested in why he became who he is. He’s interested in inequality and wants to uplift society. From his various life experiences and observations, he has seen how social and power imbalance can expose people to abuse and coercion, and how difficult it is to escape such situations – not just as individuals but also as a social class. He sees that the structure of capitalism keeps the mass of people down. His research suggests that the Liberal party was created to maintain the privilege of the settler/capitalist elite, and that productivity improves more under Labor governments than under conservative governments. Moving ahead, he wants to improve our condition. He feels that the majority of people are against being controlled by big capital, and that we urgently require more organisation of the workforce and trade unions, to deal with the effects of AI and robotics taking over production. He enjoys tennis and video games and would like to travel to Eastern Europe and Central Asia to gain an understanding of their cultures. He is aware that there’s much that he doesn’t know at this point, and is honest enough to say so, and he doesn’t want to expand on other strategies to improve the situation until he learns more about what drives things. To enhance his understanding of these matters, he would like to go to university and study political science, so that in the future he may have a career in politics or political journalism.
Paul is a person with a strong desire for growth in the quality of life for all. He sees GDP as a poor measure of wealth. He has seen it constantly increase through his life, while wealth has concentrated among the few and home ownership has become harder. It was evident to him as a child that those who claim leadership didn’t always know what they were doing – like the nuclear alert siren being kept in his school basement. His schools had rigid military drilling, and he saw many examples of school seniors being destroyed because of their emerging political views – like the head of the debating club being expelled just before university, for putting up pro-communist fliers. Paul worked in his father’s business in the UK in various roles, including as a truck driver. He made sure to understand the situations of workers and business associates rather than be the boss’s son. Branching into renewable energy, he assisted in product development and establishing European dealerships. After moving to Australia he drove trucks while developing a sustainable farm. He then managed training courses with a large firm in Brisbane before teaching English in Korea and China. Returning to Murwillumbah, he started a truck driver training business until retirement. He is interested in sustainability in the Tweed – he enjoyed making things, but only if they had meaning for him, which is why he once made solar panels.

Mates ride for sight By Jonathon Howard
A PAIR of good mates and Tweed Heads aged care residents have hit the virtual road to pedal their way through a 3,700km journey from Coolangatta to Cairns and back, raising money for a cause that’s close to their hearts. Bolton Clarke Raffles residents Holden, 89, and Keith, 81, warmed up their stationary bikes at the Coolangatta Sands Hotel on Friday, August 28, to officially launch their fundraising challenge for the Macular Disease Foundation Australia. The pair, who are members of the residential aged care home’s stationary cycling group, will spend the coming weeks virtually travelling from pub to pub along the Queensland coast to Cairns before making their way back down the middle of the state to Tweed Heads. They have set themselves a $10,000 fundraising target and are encouraging people to join them virtually at each pub stop for a drink and make a donation. “We’re part of a group of stationary cyclists at the home and we’ve decided to do a virtual ride to raise money for the Macular Disease Foundation Australia,” the pair said. “Our plan is to ride (virtually) from pub to pub up the Queensland coast from Coolangatta to Cairns, and back down the middle – a distance of about 3700km.” The charity has particular significance for Holden, who lives with macular degeneration and is visually impaired. The Macular Disease Foundation Australia supports the 1.9 million Australians whose vision is affected by macular disease, making the challenge a personal one as well as an opportunity to raise awareness and funds. The pair will use their virtual route to con-
nect with supporters along the way, with each pub stop providing another milestone in their journey. “We’ll be joining by a virtual link to share a drink and ask people to donate,” they said. The official launch will take place at 12pm on Friday, August 28, at the Coolangatta Sands Hotel, with supporters invited to join Holden, Keith and their crew. The pair said every donation, no matter the size, would help them reach their target and support Australians living with macular disease. “We look forward to meeting you along the way,” they said. Find out more and donate via: https://www.gofundme.com/f/bolton-clarke-raffles-ride-for-sight
Holden and Keith will share a long ride and a few brews as they fundraise for macular disease
Cooking for one: Making mealtimes easier Cooking for one can sometimes feel like more effort than it is worth. Buying ingredients, preparing a complete meal and washing up afterwards can be time consuming, particularly when you only need a single serve. Fresh ingredients are also commonly sold in larger quantities, making it difficult to use everything before it spoils. This can lead to food waste, repeated leftovers or choosing a quick snack instead of preparing a balanced meal. Keeping a selection of frozen meals at home can make everyday mealtimes much easier. There is no need to plan days in advance or worry about fresh food going to waste. You can simply choose what you feel like eating and heat only the amount you need. Gourmet Meals offers a wide variety of complete frozen meals made with quality ingredients. With comforting roasts, chicken, seafood, pasta and vegetarian options available, you can enjoy something different throughout the week
without buying numerous ingredients or spending hours in the kitchen. Individual portions can also help make serving the right amount easier while reducing unnecessary waste. Having meals readily available is particularly helpful on days when shopping, cooking or standing in the kitchen feels more difficult than usual. The Gourmet Meals is reviewed by an accredited practicing dietitian approved and snap frozen to preserve its flavour and quality. Meals can be heated from frozen in just minutes, providing a convenient option for people living independently, managing a busy schedule or simply wanting an occasional break from cooking. With a selection of meals in the freezer, you can enjoy greater variety and make mealtimes simple, satisfying and enjoyable.

TWEED COAST veteran David Tredinnick is proof age doesn’t define you, with the 87-yearold preparing to participate in the GemLife Games on the Gold Coast on September 10 and 11. David will join more than 800 over-50 athletes, spectators and volunteers from Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria for the fourth annual Games, being held at GemLife Gold Coast. He’s part of a 60-strong contingent from GemLife Tweed Waters participating in the two-day event, where competitors will go head-to-head in swimming, tennis, table tennis, pickleball, eight-ball pool, ten-pin bowling, lawn bowls, simulated golf and, for the first time, speed chess. David, who served in the army providing medical support in Vietnam with the Australian Field Hospital, will compete in pickleball and has been honing his skills with regular visits to the gym and help from his neighbours and friends. “I go to a local gym twice weekly, which supports ex-defence force members to stay in shape, and has given me the ability and confidence to try new sports like pickleball,” he said. “I’ve always been a tennis player, but my neighbour Candy encouraged me to give pickleball a go and I’ve really enjoyed it. “A group of us play together regularly, and I also enjoy a round of golf with my neighbours too. “My wife Joan has been supporting me every step of the way and will be cheering me on from the sidelines at the Games. “The social aspect of playing is just as important as staying fit, and I’m really looking forward to meeting new people as we test our

Shark watch ramps up Shark alert calls after bull sharks spotted
By Jonathon Howard
By Jo Kennett
“use the SharkSmart app before entering the water” goers more information about shark activity while allowing authorities to respond quickly to sightings. Agriculture and Regional NSW Minister Tara Moriarty said the government was using a range of measures to improve beach safety. “Our Government is focused on beach safety and we are investing $120 million in evidence-based shark measures such as drones, drumlines, listening stations and nets,” Ms Moriarty said. “I acknowledge there are some mixed views on shark nets, but we will use all tools available to enhance the safety of people swimming at our beaches.” While shark nets will be installed at 51 beaches between Newcastle and Wollongong from September 1, the Tweed coast will instead be covered by the SMART drumline program. The government has urged beachgoers to check local conditions and use the SharkSmart app before entering the water.
THE SECOND sighting in a week of sharks at Cabarita by a drone operator on Sunday morning, August 30, has sparked calls for better alerts to evacuate the water. The Cabarita Beach Surf Life Saving Club drone operator saw four or five bull sharks cruising along in front of the surf club at around 7am and alerted surfers and swimmers to evacuate the water over the loud speaker and also by sounding a siren. Surfer Martin Rees praised the operator but said he and six others who were surfing about 150 metres north of the club didn’t hear the siren or the alert. When he paddled out, Martin noticed the “20 or 30 surfers” who had been surfing in front of the surf club were all standing on the beach “I thought that’s not good and alerted the other guys near me that I thought the drone may have spotted a shark,” he posted online. “The point is this is the second time in a week the drone operators have sounded an alarm and I heard nothing. “I’m hearing impaired and have Blu Tack in my ears however the other guys around me heard nothing as well. “I believe when the drone alarm is sounded the clubbies need to deploy or pop a red smoke grenade similar to the ones we used in the army. “The smoke will linger for at least five minutes and will be easily seen for 500 metres if not longer in either direction and alert most surfers in the general vicinity, not just the ones in front of the surf club.” Martin said that the week before another drone operator approached him and his mate as they were exiting the water and asked why they hadn’t responded to his call to exit the
water via speaker and siren. “I said I didn’t hear a thing,” he said. “Then he showed the actual footage of a four-metre great white cruising near the shore in front of the surf club and heading south. “Same with the bull sharks yesterday but no footage was shown.” Cabarita Beach Surf Lifesaving club captain Matt Lucas responded to the post about the bull sharks, saying “smoke grenades are considered an incendiary device and a prohibited item under NSW legislation.” “We are exploring options to enhance Beach Evacuation sirens that will transmit beyond the immediate area outside the front of the club,” he wrote. “While the area out the front of Halcyon is in proximity to the Caba club, we cannot guarantee effective notification but we are doing what we can to expand.

THE TWEED Coast be among the first areas to benefit from a major expansion of shark surveillance as the NSW Government ramps up its Shark Management Program ahead of spring and summer. From September 1, 305 SMART drumlines will be deployed along the NSW coastline from Tweed Heads to Bega, while drone surveillance will also increase significantly, with 73 drones operating across 97 beaches and more than 300,000 scheduled surveillance hours planned this year. SMART drumlines recorded significant shark activity across Northern NSW during 2024/25. In fact, at Kingscliff, 3750 SMART drumline deployments were made across 250 fishing days, with target sharks caught at a rate of one every 17.9 days, according to report from Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development. The report shows that Kingscliff has gone from 12 target shark captures in 2021/22 to 14 in 2024/25. The location recorded 22 total capture events, including 14 target sharks, seven tiger sharks and seven white sharks, as well as eight non-target animals. The expanded program comes as the Minns Government continues its $120 million investment in shark management, including a $34 million boost to drone surveillance. Since July 1, the expanded winter drone program has recorded 750 shark sighting events, prompting more than 200 intervention actions by Surf Life Saving NSW. Drone surveillance hours will also be extended from 6.15am to 5pm from September 1, with further expanded coverage planned during the NSW school holidays from September 26. The government said the measures were designed to give swimmers, surfers and beach-

The iconic local Baby Show and Fete is back with plenty of cute little locals ready to shine
Baby Show time! By Jonathon Howard
TWEED FAMILIES are invited to the iconic Baby Show and Fete on Saturday, September 12, for a morning of baby competitions, gardening, food and family fun at All Saints Anglican Church on Byangum Road. The event will feature four age groups for children up to three years, with entrants competing across three fun categories including Cutest Smile, Happiest Baby and Longest Eyelashes. The morning will culminate in the crowning of a Prince and Princess, while every entrant will receive a free ticket in a Mum’s Pamper Pack. Parents will also have the chance to capture the occasion with professional photographer Josie Thacker, who will be onsite taking special baby show photographs. Registration opens at 9am, with judging start-
ing at 10am. Entry costs $5. There will be plenty to keep children entertained, including a free jumping castle and face painting, while a family gardening workshop at 10.30am will give children the chance to plant and take home their own potted plant. The fete will also feature a wide range of stalls selling plants, cakes, sweets, flowers, crafts, jams, pickles, books, fresh fruit salad, toys, jewellery and clothes, along with a trash and treasure stall. Visitors can enjoy morning tea, drinks and a sausage sizzle, with donations welcomed. A cent auction will also be held, with 10 tickets available for $5. Organisers are encouraging families to come along and “join the fun at the fete” for a morning celebrating babies, children and the local community.

above average across almost all of Australia. The warmer outlook could increase the risk of early-season heat, particularly further south, while Northern NSW faces the added challenge of dry conditions and elevated fire risk. The Bureau also said El Niño is likely to strengthen and persist through spring and summer. While El Niño is generally associated with reduced rainfall across parts of Australia, the Bureau cautioned that the strength of an El Niño event does not always directly correspond with its impact on Australian rainfall. Residents are being urged to keep up to date with forecasts and warnings as spring progresses, particularly given the combination of heat, dry conditions, thunderstorms and increased fire risk. The Bureau’s latest forecasts and warnings are available through its website and BOM Weather app.

TWEED IS facing a warmer and potentially drier start to spring, with the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) warning of below-average rainfall across the north of the state in September and an increased fire risk following recent dry conditions. The Bureau’s 2026 spring outlook was sent out last week and shows above-average temperatures are very likely across NSW, both during the day and overnight, setting the scene for an early taste of summer across the Northern Rivers. While rainfall across northern NSW is forecast to be below average during September, the outlook becomes less certain later in spring, with equal chances of above-average, average or below-average rainfall. BOM said the forecast for below-average rainfall did not mean the region would be dry throughout spring, but indicated there was likely to be less rain than usual. The outlook comes as the region heads into what is traditionally a volatile period for weather, with spring identified as a peak season for severe thunderstorms along Australia’s east coast. The combination of warmer conditions and recent dry weather has also prompted a warning about an increased fire risk in parts of northern NSW. Across the state, spring rainfall is expected to reach at least 50 to 200mm along the NSW east coast, although rainfall totals are not expected to be evenly distributed. BOM said temperatures were likely to remain above average across NSW and the ACT, following a winter in which temperatures were

New flavours at the market
Over the coming months, we are expecting a quite a few new stalls to join us. Already this week onwards, we are welcoming Mirella and her self-care products under the name Cherub. These products are locally made, organic and ethically sourced from pesticide free botanicals and include lip balms, floral waters, mind-body balms, roll-on natural perfumes, facial serums and massage oils. In next coming weeks, we’ll also have Alexa & Isaac from the Natual ArtForm to be our market community. They are offering us handcrafted natural remedies for muscle and join pains, recovery and skin repair amongst with their magnesium salt deodorant. All of their products are made with DMSO, which is a natural sulphur compound that comes from pine trees and has a wide range of benefits.
Farmers in spotlight
This month we want to introduce to you couple of our farmers that continue to bring us fresh, organic produce and home-made products week after week. Summit Organics have been reg-
ulars at our market for more than 12 years, although Tania and Rod have been farming for much longer. For our market regulars, Tania and Rod’s son Ryan has also become a very familiar face at the market. They started their farm more than three decades ago, and over the years both the soil and what they grow have evolved and transformed many times. For the past 15 years, Summit Organics have been growing an incredible variety of crops, with more than 50 different herbs and vegetables making their way from the farm to the market. Around six years ago, Tania’s passion for flowers blossomed into something more, and beautiful organic flowers joined their seasonal vegetables at the markets. Summit Organics only sell what they grow on their own farm, so a visit to their stall is a wonderful way to discover what is truly in season. Another family farm that has been a familiar sight at our markets for the past 8 years, is Mad Mountain and Lyn and Tim. Their farm is located high up on the beautiful Tomewin Mountain, and is a proudly family-owned farm built from a love of simple living, growing good food and sharing it with others. Their journey began when they left the suburbs in search of a slower, more self-sufficient way of life.
With solar power, tank water and a desire to grow their own food and medicinal herbs, their humble home garden has grown into a thriving little farm filled with life. Today, their greenhouse is bursting with medicinal and culinary herbs, permaculture plants, flowering plants for pollinators and seasonal vegetables. Their established fruit trees and home-grown chillies also have found their way into a delicious range of homemade jams, chilli sauces, chutneys and relishes — all made with the same care and passion that goes into growing their plants. In addition to Summit Organics and Mad Mountain Family Farm, you can find our farmers Sylva Lining Organics, Avocadoes from Burringbar, Red Jumping Ant, Everest Farm, Daphne’s Pantry, Rainforest Farmer and Tweed Pecans with us every week with local, fresh and seasonal produce. When: EVERY Wednesday from 7am to 11am - come rain or shine! LIVE music from 8am. Where: Murwillumbah Showground

We’ve been enjoying the Winter and starting to feel the Spring coming as the September is starting. The warmer mornings are ahead offering another great reason to come and bask in the sunshine and enjoy the local community and beautiful food at the markets! Over the month of August we’ve been enjoying the winter vegetables and been delighted to have all the delicious berries back at the markets as Monty’s Strawberries and Tallogum Berries are ripe and ready to enjoy. Tallogum Berries is bringing us their beautiful, hand-picked blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and seasonal specialty berries and the season will continue to the spring. Strawberries will be available a like over the spring. Berries are packed with antioxidants, fiber, and essential vitamins, so they are healthy and delicious addition to your diet! Winter flowers are also in bloom now, and you can find beautiful bunches from Jumping Red Ant, Daphne’s Pantry and Summit Organics, where the season for poppies and ranunculus have just started! Our farmers Sylva Lining Organics and Summit Organics have also been hosting farm walks over the
winter which have been a great opportunity to go and see how your weekly food is grown. Other Winter flavours for us this month have been offering Lulu Blue’s Kitchen in a form of a lovely warming Dal and sambar soup, which is served with idli (steam rice cake) and topped with coconut chutney. This Winter favourite is vegan and gluten free, and it’s available still now over cooler months! This week we’ve also been celebrating Father’s day and were offering many ideas for gifts and weekend’s special meal. For coming birthdays and other celebrations, market is a great place to find special treats. For example, gathering a lovely picnic basket as a present could include cheeses from our dairy farmers Nimbin Valley Dairy and Cheeses Loves You with fresh sourdough bread from Crabbes Creek Woodfired and dips, olives, jams, sauces and nuts that you can find from Byron Spice Palace, Mad Mountain Family Farm, SEKO Food, Rainforest Foods and Jumping Red Ant. And what would be a picnic basket without drinks! Beautiful healthy options are Buchi Kumbucha or Yogi Nectar or for wine and beer lovers, there’s plenty to choose from Caldera Brewing and Blending Co’s selection. Picnic is also a great way to celebrate the arrival of the Spring time!

The Mary Poppins performance in Murwillumbah was a hit!
Murwillumbah High goes supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! By Jonathon Howard
TWEED SHIRE students were among dozens of North Coast schools to take part in a major musical production bringing almost 600 young performers together on Murwillumbah High School’s stage last week. Students from 48 schools across the North Coast performed Mary Poppins JR from Monday, August 24, to Thursday, August 27, marking the first time the NSW Department of Education’s Combined Schools Musical program has been staged
regionally in the Tweed. Schools from the Tweed included Kingscliff High School, Terranora Public School, Tweed Heads Public School, Tyalgum Public School, Banora Point High School, Bogangar Public School, Murwillumbah East Public School, Tweed Heads South Public School, Uki Public School, Dungay Public School, Fingal Head Public School and Murwillumbah High School. Students from Pottsville Beach Public School and Pottsville also featured prominently, with Sophie McGregor
sharing the role of Jane Banks. The production gave students from the Coffs Coast to the NSW border an opportunity usually available only to students in larger metropolitan centres. The Arts Unit North Coast coordinator Sarah Armour said the regional program was designed to bring major performance opportunities closer to students. “This is the first time the production has been performed regionally through the Combined Schools Musical program with almost 600 students
from 48 North Coast schools to hit the stage over the show’s four nights,” Ms Armour said. “The program is about providing opportunities for students closer to home that they otherwise would not be able to access.” Ms Armour said some smaller schools would not have been able to stage such a production independently. “Some of the schools involved are quite small, so they don’t have the ability to put on a large production like this independently,” she said. Leading the cast as Mary Poppins
was 15-year-old Nambucca Heads High School student Violette Hyland, while The Rivers Secondary College Lismore High Campus students Anouk Hockings and Brayden Malloy played Winifred and George Banks. The production brought together students who had been rehearsing for months, with some schools beginning preparations as early as February. For the North Coast students, the regional production proved to be a “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” opportunity to perform together on a major stage – great work students!

AT THE FOOTY with Quinny
RUGBY LEAGUE is a wonderful medium for emotion and it was never more evident than on the weekend with Jai Arrow taking the field for Souths in game 99. Huge kudos to Souths, Titans, Roosters and the NRL for hatching the plan and allowing common sense and some feel good vibes to occur. What unbelievable scenes we saw at Cbus on the weekend with Arrow leading the Rabbits out. The image of Wayne putting on Jai’s socks was as good as you will see. I’m sure this week they will absolutely pack Allianz this week for him to crack the tonne. In a period of time where we feel for Jai and his family, we also applaud him and those who have gone before him (Carl Webb, Rob Burrow etc) in the fight against the insidious disease that is MND. On the contrary, the Broncos trainwreck of a season continued off the field with a calamity of errors plaguing the whole week. The Adam Reynolds saga was nothing short of farcical and an embarrassment to the high profile club. How they managed to bugger up the champion half’s farewell has got me stumped and then little to no acknowledgment of the mishaps was even worse. The top 8 is sorted but who finishes where is still undecided. 1 point in the differential separates top spot with the Wahs and Panthers after the top spot this weekend. It’s quite incredible that situation and Penrith will know exactly what they require Sunday afternoon in trying to clinch another JJ Giltinan shield. Third and Fourth won’t be decided until after

this weekend and outside the Sharks locked into 5th, who they play week one of the finals is anyone’s guess. The bye has also come at a good time for the Knights with a week off. The loss of Safiti is big for them but it was a brutal tackle and deserved the long lay off. The northern rivers junior boys finals will be played at Seagulls this year with the junior girls being held at Yamba on Saturday. Casino will host the senior semis this week after going down to the Mustangs in extra time in what was a country footy classic. James Mellor the hero with a 90th min penalty goal from a distance to send Murbah first through to the big dance and hosting rights for next week. Casino will take on the reigning premiers Marist Brothers to get another crack at the Mustangs and the Cougars will unveil their new dressing sheds which is a credit to them. It’s the business end of the season - it’s going to be great. See you at the footy. Quinny

Best NSW Restaurant By Madeleine Murray
A RECENT restaurant review in the Sydney Morning Herald described Bistro Livi as being “on a nondescript street in sleepy Murbah (as locals call it)”. On August 18, that all changed, when Gourmet Traveller magazine named Bistro Livi the Best NSW Restaurant of the Year 2026. Of the other 21 finalists, 18 were from Sydney. How on earth did twin sisters Danni and Nikky Wilson, and Ewen Crawford make such a phenomenal success here, with their first restaurant? And it wasn’t easy. In 2021, Livi took over Bacaro in Murwillumbah, and created an elegant, soothing space. A few weeks later, the flood in February 2022 left water, mud and debris thigh-high. Many people would have been defeated, but not that trio. “It took us about six weeks before we could reopen after the floods,” co-owner Danni Wilson told The Weekly. “We chose Murwillumbah for its beauty and its people. Spending time here, we felt the strong sense of community, and we knew our vision for Livi would fit right in.” I went there for lunch with friends on Saturday, and I am still thinking about that amazing meal. We shared everything by cutting it in four. That way, we were able to appreciate each dish and discuss it. The food demanded to be admired and savoured. The small oysters from Cromarty Bay, each served on a little mound of salt, with brown rice vinaigrette and tiny spring onion things called mignonettes were a perfect blend of tastes and textures. Then came the creamy, subtle whipped mullet roe with small, spicy radishes which exploded in your mouth. Generous pieces of delicate, slightly sweet spanner crab wrapped in a thin layer of egg, sat beside a small red glow of chili oil. Cutting through the lamb forequarter in rich jus was like cutting through butter, literally, and I was

able to suck the marrow from the small bone. Another highlight in a meal full of exquisite surprises was the famous, unforgettable chocolate cake, perfectly complemented by a dark, dangerous macchiato. Most of the incredible produce comes from Boon Luck Farm in Tyagrah, and Summit Organics. The fish and seafood are caught locally up and down the coast. “We felt very humbled to win the award,” Danni said. “The recognition means so much to us all, not just as an achievement, but as a reflection of the hard work and support from the entire team. We’re incredibly grateful and motivated to keep pushing forward.” Bistro Livi is on the street level of the Regent cinema building, 1-3 Brisbane Street, Murwillumbah.

ProspER-Using our unique strengths to meet our challenges Recently I had the pleasure of launching ProspER Northern Rivers – the Regional Economic and Environment Plan 2040 at the Northern Rivers Regional Leaders Summit in Byron Bay, attended by 180 stakeholders. ProspER was a commitment I took to the last election because I wanted our region to have a clear long-term roadmap for growth, investment and opportunity. Over the last 18 months the plan has been led by Business NSW Northern Rivers, with Regional Director Jane Laverty bringing together businesses, industry groups, councils, government agencies, community organisations and young people to help shape the work. Southern Cross University has been a key partner, contributing research expertise and helping ensure the plan is grounded in evidence and local knowledge. ProspER recognises the incredible assets we already have, including our people, natural environment, agricultural sector, creative industries, education and health services. At the same time, it acknowledges the pressures facing our region, from housing shortages and workforce challenges to infrastructure needs and disaster resilience. The plan contains 56 recommendations across 10 key domains, and identifies practical priorities for the future. The real work now is turning ideas into action through collaboration between government, business, industry and community leaders, and BusinessNSW Northern Rivers is committed to maintaining the momentum. Our

Community Road Safety Grants The latest round of the NSW Government Community Road Safety Grants is now open and eligible community groups can apply for grants in two categories; up to $5000 to increase road safety awareness or up to $30,000 for larger projects with greater community reach. As an example of an innovative project, last year the Port Stephens neighbourhood centre used the grant to provide vehicle maintenance and driving lessons for vulnerable women and young people. This was of particular benefit to women leaving domestic violence, supporting them with the skills, confidence and independence to move on with their lives. Applications close September 28, 2026.

Krishna Village singer goes global Ready for the Opera House By Rada Campbell
By Rada Campbell
FROM A tiny gurukula in the Tweed Valley to Mumbai recording studios and the pages of Rolling Stone India, Premanjali Dasi has taken an unconventional path into international music. The 26-year-old artist’s social-media performances regularly go viral, her songs have attracted hundreds of thousands of streams and views, and her following has grown to almost 200,000 on Instagram. Although her musical foundation is traditional Hare Krishna kirtan, Premanjali is increasingly moving across genres. Her devotional debut, Shyama Anna, was followed this year by the introspective pop-soul single Out of My Mind, which Rolling Stone India included in its weekly roundup of new music to know. Premanjali was educated entirely at the gurukula at Krishna Village, Eungella, and began singing lessons there at five. She said the closeknit bhakti community gave her confidence and a secure place from which to explore the world. “Being in a community that trusted me made it easier to try and do things,” she told The Weekly. “There was always a really nice place to come back to.” After years of international travel and periods living in New York and Vrindavan, she has spent the past six months building a life and career in Mumbai. “Here will always feel like home,” she said of the Tweed Valley. “But I don’t know what to do here anymore. I’m like a tourist when I’m back.” While Indian audiences have overwhelmingly embraced her, the visibility has brought occasional criticism. When one recent video went viral, some viewers accused her of cultural appropriation. “This is my culture,” Premanjali said. “I’m just not Indian by blood, but my entire life I’ve grown up with this.” Saris, Indian food, mantras and temple life were not exotic additions to her Australian

childhood, she said; they were simply normal. As kirtan moves into clubs and concert venues, Premanjali believes audiences can sense whether an artist’s spirituality is lived or manufactured. “There’s definitely a responsibility that I have to maintain that spiritual integrity within myself,” she said. Premanjali once imagined releasing an album as a side project while pursuing other business ideas. That changed during a visit home in 2024, when her friend, leading London kirtan artist Radhika Das, showed her that devotional music could become a full-time career. He introduced her to her present label, while his Mumbai concert helped bring her to the city she now hopes to make home. Despite the international attention, Premanjali says she is only beginning. “I don’t see myself as being very famous,” she said. “I really hope I can just keep making everybody proud.” Follow Premanjali on Instagram at @prem.anj, watch her on YouTube at @Premanjali-music, and stream her music on Spotify under Premanjali.
ELEVEN-year-old Murwillumbah Public School musician Saskia Porter is preparing for one of Australia’s most celebrated stages. The Year 6 school and music captain has been selected as descant recorder soloist for the finale of the NSW Arts Unit’s 2026 Festival of Instrumental Music. On Tuesday, September 22, Saskia will perform Pagodas by the Heavenly Lake at the Sydney Opera House, after earning the role through a video audition involving hundreds of NSW students. “I was nervous when we hadn’t found out yet, and then I was very excited when I found out that I got the solo,” Saskia told The Weekly. Saskia’s solo will soar above more than 700 recorder players and 300 string musicians, accompanied by harp, percussion and piano players. Composed by Stephen Chin, Pagodas by the Heavenly Lake has two movements, Mirrors of Water and Urns of Fire. Her music-teacher grandmother Vikki Armour said the piece was based on an ancient Chinese story about a goddess bathing in a heavenly lake, moving from calm beauty to her struggle against a demon. Creativity runs through both sides of Saskia’s family. Her mother, Sarah Armour, is an Arts Coordination Officer with the Arts Unit, while her father, Hobie Porter, is a nationally exhibited landscape painter whose work is deeply grounded in the Tweed. Saskia said music on one side of her family and visual art on the other had given her different things to learn and carry into her future. “I’m encouraged and supported,” she said. Saskia plays descant and treble recorder, trombone, piano, flute, piccolo and saxophone, and also sings - but names the trombone as her favourite. “It’s the most fun to play because it can go

really low and really high, and I like the slide as well,” she said. After almost five years playing trombone, Saskia has also earned a music scholarship to Lindisfarne Anglican Grammar School for next year. Sarah said the whole family would travel to Sydney for the occasion. “She is a talented little musician who sets goals and works hard to achieve them,” Sarah told The Weekly. Saskia’s advice for other aspiring musicians is simple: keep learning, keep going and follow what you believe.

Emergency beacon damaged By Jo Kennett
VANDALS HAVE caused serious damage to an emergency response beacon near Cabarita for the second time, weeks before the patrol season starts on September 26, with authorities stressing the beacon cameras are only activated during an emergency. The beacon was also vandalised last year, not long after it was installed in June, endangering the lives of surfers and swimmers and causing thousands of dollars of damage for the taxpayer-funded equipment. “The Emergency Response Beacon (ERB) is an emergency help point,” a SLSNSW spokesperson said. “When someone presses the help button, it opens a line to the Surf Life Saving NSW State Operations Centre (SOC), and the camera activates so the State Duty Officers can see what they are dealing with. “Without a camera, the SOC has no situational awareness. “With it, State Duty Officers can task the right asset the first time. “The camera faces the ocean and the water’s edge, and it is not routinely monitored. “There is no movement detection; it only activates in response to a help request from someone pressing the help button. “Every ERB that is vandalised is an ERB that
will not be able to be used when someone needs it. This puts lives at risk.” The first Emergency Response Beacons were launched at Dreamtime Beach at Fingal Heads in 2018 after a string of drownings in the area, to help reduce response times. The camera could be switched on and pan up and down the beach to identify where a person is in distress. When you press the button in an emergency, between 7am and 7pm in summer it goes directly to the NSW SLS State Operations Centre, where lifeguards can be activated and directed to the person in trouble. Outside those hours, it diverts to 000. After two men were rescued from the ocean at Fingal in 2022, Australian Lifeguard Services Tweed Supervisor Lachlan Field explained why the camera is so important. “That’s where the bea-
cons are life-saving because you have the location and you have cameras so you’re not reliant on the informant, you can find out for yourself whether the person in trouble has gone round the headland or not, for instance,” he said.

Mustangs book home grand final
The Mustangs were not happy abut this tackle. Photos Lilly Toohey
By Jo Kennett
MURWILLUMBAH HAS gone backto-back to nab a berth in the NRRRL grand final after winning what was described as “arguably the greatest game of footy this year” against Casino on Sunday, August 30. The win means Murwillumbah will host the grand final for the first time in 14 years. The teams were locked at 20-20 game and got a thrilling victory in extra time. According to the Mustangs scribe the First Grade side was behind in the first half and made “an epic comeback to finish the game in a 20-20
draw.” “This led to the game going into extra time, which saw James Mellor kicking a legendary penalty goal from 42 metres out close to the sideline to secure the win,” the Mustangs wrote on social media. Murwillumbah scored four tries, converting three, while Casino scored three, with the Cougars converting all theirs and also coming up with a penalty goal. The Mustangs may still meet Casino in the grand final if the Cougars get the win against the Marist Brothers Rams in this weekend final. A Mustangs spokesperson said the team “have felt the highs and lows
of rugby league.” “Last year was the worst of it, making it to the grand final after being the underdogs of the finals series to then go down in the big dance,” the spokesperson said. “This year has been a revenge plot, they have worked hard from pre-season to now to put themselves in a position to redeem themselves. “Now there is one left to get, the ultimate grand final redemption. And to ice the cake, it’s at home for the first time in 14 years! “What a weekend it was.” It’s not hard to imagine the scenes of jubilation after James Mellor’s winning kick on Sunday. The grand finals will be held at Mur-
Drone hours extended Continued from page 26. Martin thinks marine smoke flares could be used as an alternative. “I’m getting messages from other surfers saying the same thing has happened to them.” He thanked the Cabarita Beach SLSC for providing drone surveillance on the weekend and said he’d love to see it in action seven days a week. The latest sighting was the seventh reported to Dorsal Shark Report off the Tweed Coast this month. Sightings included tiger and white sharks tagged and released off South Kingscliff, plus three unidentified sharks spotted off Cabarita by drones or the public. Lifeguards evacuated the water after two Cabarita sightings.
Drone hours extended
On Sunday, August 30, the NSW Government announced an expanded drone program which will ramp up from September 1, providing record drone monitoring for sharks along the NSW coastline. It includes extended drone surveillance hours from 6:15am to 5pm from September 1 as daylight increases for spring. There will also be an expanded drone surveillance from September 26 over the NSW school holiday period. According to the government a record 73 drones operating across 97 beaches to deliver shark surveillance, with more than 300,000 scheduled surveillance hours this year, representing a 1,200 per cent increase. “Alongside the increase in shark mitigation measures, recent research has provided a ‘shark’s eye view’ into the behaviour of white sharks,” a government media release stated. “NSW Government shark research PhD student Adrienne Gooden recently co-authored a research paper observing white shark behaviour using cameras and movement loggers deployed on juveniles. “Thirteen juvenile white sharks were studied off the NSW coast to obtain a rare glimpse of
their daily lives, recording more than 68.5 hours of footage, capturing rare insights into how juvenile white sharks move, feed, and interact with their environment. “Most sharks were seen cruising slowly over sandy habitats rather than rocky reefs, suggesting that they may favour these areas to target bottom-dwelling prey or to move more easily through terrain. “Only a few short bursts of rapid movement were recorded, indicating that active hunting by juvenile sharks may be relatively infrequent.” From 1 September, 51 shark nets will be installed at beaches between Newcastle and Wollongong to complement the deployment of 305 SMART drumlines in the water from Tweed Heads to Bega. “Our government is focused on beach safety and we are investing $120 million in evidence-based shark measures such as drones, drumlines, listening stations and nets,” Minister for Agriculture and Regional NSW Tara Moriarty said. “I acknowledge there are some mixed views on shark nets, but we will use all tools available to enhance the safety of people swimming at our beaches and that includes nets rolling out on 1 September. “We are investing in our science research to understand sharks better and use that to enhance our program to make our beaches safer for swimmers, surfers and families. “While the risk of shark interaction can never be eliminated entirely, everyone can take simple steps to reduce their risk, including checking local conditions and downloading the SharkSmart app.”
willumbah on Sunday, September 13. Murwillumbah Ladies League Tag side kicked the semi-finals off on Saturday “with an extremely low-scoring game with only a conversion making the difference,” knocking the Raiderettes out of the comp with a 6-4 win. Bad luck to the Raiderettes who have put up a great fight to get into the finals and we look forward to seeing you back next year. Good luck to the Mares who will play Marist Brothers in the preliminary finals next week to fight for a spot in the grand final. Murwillumbah’s Women’s Rugby League team went down 16-6 to the Bilambil Jets in “a devastatingly close game; they gave it their all and did the club proud for our first ever season of Women’s Tackle,” according to a club spokesperson. The Cudgen Hornets Under 18s side are off to the grand-final after a huge upset against the Mustangs, who had finished the competition on top of the ladder.
Casino players trying to bring down a Mustangs charger
In what was described as a “great game,” that went down to the wire, the Hornets fought it out for a 14-12 victory. Murwillumbah will get another shot at a grand final berth in next week’s finals against the Mullumbimby Giants and will be desperate for redemption. It was a great weekend for the Tweed Heads Seagulls with all three grand finals contenders getting a win. The LLT team go into the grand final undefeated after beating Marist Brothers 10-6 on the weekend. The Seagulls Under 18s side got a big 28-14 over the Mullumbimby Giants, with Aiden Tom scoring three tries, and will take on Murwillumbah with the winner getting a shot at the title against the Hornets. The Tweed Heads Reserve Grade side advanced to the next final with a 44-12 win over Ballina. The Bilambil Jets Reserve Grade side were unlucky to lose to Byron Bay but will also get another shot at the title this weekend. I hope I got that right and remembered everyone. I am writing this from a far-flung island in Indonesia and haven’t been able to contact too many people for comments so apologies for that. Commiserations to all the teams that fought their hearts out all year only to go down in the finals on the weekend. We hope to see you back next year as keen as ever. To all our winners who advanced to another final, keeping their club dreams alive, best of luck to you all.

Dam wall project update THE NEXT stages of the $304 million Clarrie Hall Dam raising project will focus on finalising its business case, funding submissions and project delivery plans after the NSW Government approved the project’s Environmental Impact Statement. Tweed Shire Council updated The Weekly on the dam’s progress this week and said it has engaged a consultant to prepare a “Full Business Case and Project Delivery Plan”, which will help inform future funding submissions and decisions about how the major water security project will be delivered. Council will also work with stakeholders and relevant agencies to meet the conditions of approval, including preparing a biodiversity offset strategy required before construction can begin. The approval by the NSW Minister for Planning, Housing and Infrastructure clears a major hurdle for the proposal, which would raise the dam wall by 8.5 metres and increase storage capacity from 16,000 megalitres to about 42,300 megalitres. Based on current growth projections, the wall needs to be raised by 2032 to ensure sufficient water supplies for the Tweed, with the project expected to secure water for the region until at least 2065, subject to funding and delivery timeframes. The project would also support future housing and employment growth identified in Council’s draft Growth Management Housing and Employment Strategy. Tweed Shire Council General Manager Troy Green said the project was one of the most
important issues facing the Shire. “Planning for a secure long-term water supply is critical to managing the Tweed’s future growth. With our population continuing to grow and climate change placing increasing pressure on water resources, this project is an important part of ensuring the Tweed has access to safe, secure and reliable drinking water for future generations,” Mr Green said. “The Minister’s approval is a significant milestone for the Tweed and follows years of planning, technical investigations, environmental assessments and community consultation.” The EIS examined environmental, social, cultural and economic impacts, with more than a decade of investigations including hydrological modelling, biodiversity assessments, cultural heritage studies, social impact assessments and engineering design. Alternative water supply options were also assessed, with raising Clarrie Hall Dam identified as the most effective and deliverable long-term solution. “The approval recognises the extensive work undertaken to carefully assess the proposal and its impacts, including consultation with landholders, Aboriginal stakeholders, government agencies, community groups and the wider community,” Mr Green said. In the meantime, Council will continue upgrading key water network infrastructure, promoting water conservation and applying restrictions during extended dry periods to manage demand.

AGENT OF THE WEEK
OUR AGENT of the Week is Shaun Cardillo, Associate Director of Sales at the Witheriff Group. A devoted family man, fitness junkie and novice surfer, Shaun has called Kingscliff home since 2011. With 25 years’ sales, marketing and business experience, he brings personalised service, exceptional negotiation skills and a passion for achieving outstanding client outcomes. We caught up with Shaun for a chat. WHAT IS THE MOST INTERESTING WORK YOU HAD BEFORE YOU WENT INTO REAL ESTATE? Owning health retreats and helping people make significant lifestyle changes to improve their health and fitness. Ultimately, I love helping people, and that business was a chance to work one-on-one, face to face with people and help them improve their lives in some way. Prior to that, in another life, I completed a Bachelor of Business majoring in both economics and finance. WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO GO INTO THE INDUSTRY? I do love sales and marketing, and I love property — but most importantly, I wanted to help people. Buying and selling property is often one of the most important and stressful things we do. It’s a huge financial decision, and I wanted to help people through that process. Personally, I’d had a number of experiences in both buying and selling over the years where the service, attention to

detail and overall care factor seemed like it could and should be better. It should be simple, people deserve to get great service and have someone genuinely looking after them. WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT WORKING IN REAL ESTATE? What I love most is working with people and helping them through these big decisions — taking that stress away, guiding them through the process, and helping them achieve amazing outcomes, so that by the end of it they’re truly grateful for everything you’ve offered and delivered. IS THERE ANY PARTICULAR TYPE OF PROPERTY YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF MOST EXPERT IN OR PASSIONATE ABOUT? For us, it’s more about the area expertise and people, rather than a property type. Whilst we’ve enjoyed great success with beachfront property and many record sales, our passion is in helping good people achieve their life and property goals through both the buying and selling journey. For some, this is on larger prestigious properties; however, many of the best client stories and personal successes come from helping people with their first home, or downsizing into something perfect after many years in the family home.

There’s a really healthy mix of locals either upsizing or downsizing — zigging and zagging. We’re seeing good energy out of Brisbane, particularly people nearing retirement or active retirees coming down. We’ve seen increased activity from people doing the same out of the Gold Coast, and more and more young families from the Gold Coast who want their kids to grow up in a quieter, safer environment — they see our area as ticking those boxes. While buyer activity out of Sydney and Melbourne markets continues, we’ve seen increased activity from the Gold Coast, Brisbane and locally over the last year or two. WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST CHANGES YOU’VE SEEN ACROSS THE MARKET IN RECENT TIMES? Certainly, this year we’ve seen a number of factors at play — changes to capital gains and investment taxes, company structures and so on, rising interest rates, as well as some global instability, all putting pressure on the Australian real estate market. Our local market is still performing reasonably well. We have seen price corrections in some cases, but there are serious buyers entering our market all the time. There are people who still want and need to transact, and once you get the price point right, things are moving. The biggest challenge I think we’re seeing at the moment is perception — the intensity, speed and breadth of news cycles today across all media and social platforms is intense and largely inescapable.

based on Sydney and Melbourne markets. Locally, we are a regional area offering an incredible lifestyle, and people/ buyers are looking for that. Supply is constrained and we have a steady stream of demand, ie, people shopping with the hopes and dreams of living here. Choose an experienced agent that you trust and listen to them. Make decisions decisively and listen to the buyer/market feedback. Sellers that listen to the market feedback and accordingly are selling and putting themselves in positions to enjoy their next chapters. Make sure you’re presenting your property in its best light. Buyers are nervous and shopping for perfect, so reduce or minimise their ability to negotiate against you for maintenance items that could easily be rectified. WHAT ABOUT BUYERS? ANY ADVICE? I’d encourage them to stop reading too much into the major news cycle. If you’re shopping right now, there is already value in the market. There are sellers who are listening and arguably any owner listing their home for sale into an uncertain market is very likely a serious seller. Be confident and make offers on properties where you see value, even if you disagree with the agent’s price feedback. Make the offer and give the owners the chance to say yes or no. If you’re buying with the view of owning the property for the longer term, say five years or more, does it really matter whether prices go up or down a few percentage points over the next 12 months if you’ve found the right property? • 6 Bonville Street, Pottsville, 11-11.30am • 10 Roseash Court, Pottsville, 11-11.30am • 16 Tamarama Drive, Kingscliff, 11-11.30am • 4 Tamarama Drive, Kingscliff, 11-11.30am • 18 Avoca Street Kingscliff, 12-12.30pm • 19 Cylinders Drive, Kingscliff, 12-12.30pm • 4/45 Kamala Cres Casuarina, 12-12.30pm • 13 Marsupial Drive, Pottsville, 12-12.30pm • 11 Echidna Street, Pottsville, 12-12.30pm • 204/1 Black Wattle Cct, Casuarina,12-12.30pm • 5 Pavilion Crt, Casuarina, 12-12.30pm • 10/40-48 Kamala Cres, Casuarina, 1-1.30pm • 33/2-10 Kamala Cres, Casuarina, 1-1.30pm • 24 Ocean Street, Kingscliff, 1-1.30pm • 24 Daybreak Bvd, Kingscliff, 1-1.30pm • 6/76-78 Tweed Coast Rd, Pottsville, 1-1.30pm • 12 She-Oak Lane Casuarina, 2-2.30pm • 62 Bowen Loop, 3-3.30pm

By Jo Kennett
As we move into a new selling season, the market is active, but buyers are approaching property a little differently. Spring has always brought a renewed sense of energy to real estate. More properties traditionally come to market, buyers have more choice and homeowners who have spent winter considering their next move begin making decisions. This year however we are entering spring with a slightly different buyer mindset. Buyers are doing considerably more homework before they engage. They’re watching new listings, comparing recent sales, and increasingly looking for a clear indication of price before deciding whether a property belongs on their inspection list.
CONSIDERING A MOVE THIS SPRING?
For sellers, that changes the conversation. It means the way a property is positioned from the beginning matters, but it also means there isn’t necessarily one sales strategy that makes sense for every home.
Connect with the Witheriff Group team for a complimentary appraisal and a local perspective on your property.
KNOW WHERE YOU STAND
TALK TO AGENTS EARLY
LOOK BEYOND THE ASKING PRICE
BE CLEAR ON WHAT MATTERS
Having finance and your broader buying position understood means you can act with confidence when the right property appears.
Not every opportunity reaches the open market. Stay in conversation with local agents to hear about what may be coming up
Recent comparable sales, the quality of the property and how difficult it’s attributes are to replace all help you assess true value.
With more properties to consider, it helps to be clear on your priorities. Know what you’re not willing to compromise on, and where you have some flexibility.
