TWEED COAST residents could see a shift in aircraft noise overhead, with a proposed Gold Coast Airport flight path change from Airservices Australia, potentially meaning more planes over some communities and fewer
over others. Airservices Australia wants to remove a restriction on an existing “offset” Runway 32 arrival route, potentially increasing its use from just one or two flights a week to up to 12 arrivals on a busy day.
The change could mean fewer aircraft over communities beneath the existing straight-in approach, but more frequent noise events around some Tweed Coast communities. Read more on page 3 and 6.

Tweed developing at rapid rate A PRIVATE CREMATION - $2,750 includes GST -
COUNCIL HAS received almost two development applications (DAs) every day since the start of 2026, with councillors flagging that the Tweed Shire is experiencing a period of “very high development activity”. The figures were revealed following a July question on notice from Councillor James Owen about whether the high volume of applications, particularly from the Kings Forest release area, was contributing to delays in council’s assessment and approval time frames. Council received 462 DAs between January 1 and August 24, 2026, while determining 268 applications during the same period, or more than half. Cr Owen asked whether the volume of applications was contributing to delays and what measures council could take to “minimise disruption, cost and inconvenience to the broader community”. Council management said Kings Forest was generating “a significant volume of development activity”, with 54 undetermined applications currently associated with the area. However, staff said Kings Forest was not solely responsible for delays, with 330 DAs currently under assessment across the entire Shire, along with a further 51 modification applications. “Kings Forest is a significant contributor to assessment volumes, but it is one part of a broader increase in development
activity across the Tweed,” Council management said. Despite the workload, council said its overall performance remained relatively strong. Applications are currently being accepted and formally lodged within an average of 11 days, with 48 per cent meeting the NSW State expectation of seven days. Once formally lodged, the average assessment period is 92 days, previously within the NSW State expectation of 105 days, with 65 per cent of applications currently determined within that time frame.
“Council has received 462 DAs this year.”

Call – 0427 743 817 Kings Forest was generating a "significant volume of development activity"
However, a new Expectation Order introduced on July 1 has reduced the expected assessment period to 90 days. Council said Kings Forest had presented a “learning curve” as staff, developers, builders and consultants worked through the estate’s design code, covenant requirements and assessment expectations. As application quality and familiarity with the requirements have improved, Council said compliant housing applications were now being determined much faster than during the early stages of the release. With application numbers continuing to rise, Council said two additional tempo-
rary assessment staff had commenced to help manage the workload and reduce the risk of assessment times increasing. “So, in summary, Kings Forest is a significant contributor to assessment volumes, but it is one part of a broader increase in development activity across the Tweed,” management comments stated. “Council’s response is focused on maintaining assessment capacity, improving application quality and continuing to meet adopted performance expectations while ensuring applications receive the level of assessment required by legislation and the community.”

More planes over Tweed? SOME TWEED Coast residents south of the Gold Coast Airport could see more aircraft overhead while others see fewer, under a proposed flight path change that could increase the number of international arrivals using an existing flight path. Airservices Australia is seeking community feedback on a proposal to remove a current restriction on the Runway 32 RNP-AR approach, potentially allowing more eligible aircraft arriving from New Zealand, Asia and the Pacific to use an existing “offset” arrival path. While no new flight paths are proposed, Airservices says the number of aircraft using two existing Runway 32 routes could change significantly. During 2025, an average of 56 aircraft a day, and up to 68 on a busy day, used the straight-in approach (pictured). The offset approach is currently used only about one to two times a week. If the restriction is removed, Airservices
“12 aircraft arrivals could use the offset approach on a busy day” estimates up to 12 aircraft arrivals could use the offset approach on a busy day, with an environmental assessment also testing a higher scenario of 14 arrivals. Runway 32 was used for about 34 per cent of Gold Coast Airport operations in 2025, according to the data provided by Airservices Australia. Airservices said actual aircraft numbers would depend on aircraft capability, weather, operational requirements and air traffic control sequencing. “The proposal would not change the location of the existing flight paths or the altitude profile Continues on page 6

Thank you John Flynn Private Hospital
For providing a free bus service for all us oldies (and I’m not going to say young at heart) because most of us just feel old. Why am I writing this, is because if you have to make a trip to John Flynn Private Hospital this is the way to go. I found myself in the position of having a daily trip to visit my husband in hospital. Years ago, this would have been piece of cake. But now it is a stressful event, requiring much thought, where will I park, when I get there, what if I can’t find a space without having to walk a long distance (I can’t walk very far these days). Much hesitation – someone suggested take the free shuttle bus. My nearest point of entry was Banora Club. So, this was my plan: Drive towards Banora Club, past the lights, second entrance to the left, park on the right, near the main entrance (plenty of disability parking) park, walk across the road to the seat and wait. The bus, which is owned and operated by John Flynn Private Hospital, comes on the hour. The drivers are the most caring people – always smiling and helping with bags and steps. And inside the passengers are classified their many afflictions truly old school, make you feel very welcome, (some of them are daily passengers) we all laugh and joke and talk about old times – a good start to any day. So don’t be hesitant about taking the free bus to John Flynn. Thank you John Flynn Private Hospital. Marion Van de Pol, Banora Point
Debate around Woolies
The topic of a second supermarket in Murwillumbah is certainly causing a bit of a stir amongst some of the locals (TVW, August 13&20, page 1). Letter contributor Mike Rayner’s letter to The Weekly (20/8) was an interesting example.
0475 75 75 10
www.bangalowheadacheclinic.com.au
72 Byron Street, Bangalow – opposite the Public School
Whilst he champions the current state of Murwillumbah, its draw cards and the local business community, he then appears to speak against the notion of a second major supermarket opening up to compete with Coles and to provide the community with a real choice. Mike urges readers: “don’t be asleep at the wheel, on this one”, which is ironic considering most shoppers have to do several laps of the town looking for a car park. Paul Taylor, Murwillumbah
Second dwellings and comments about rates
Letter writer and former mayor, Katie Milne argues that allowing a second detached dwelling on rural land would cost every residential ratepayer an extra $100 a year (TVW, Letters, August 20). A second home, however, would increase that land’s valuation and thus its rates. Fees would also be charged for extra rubbish bins and water used, but most homes would have their own tanks and septic systems, thus reducing the public infrastructure required per additional resident. Council would also receive development application fees and save time and money investigating illegal dwellings and prosecuting owners. The former Greens councillor points out that farmers can now build an attached second house but, having lived in one for years, I understand why “the uptake is minuscule”. It is rather rich for the Greens to oppose and delay developments, impose costly environmental offsets etc, and then blame developers for land-banking nonviable developments. Housing will only become affordable when productivity and GDP per capita increase and the cost of energy, government green and red tape, fees and taxes decrease. Current policies are doing the exact opposite. D Weston Allen, Cudgen

With a mention on The Weekly’s page 1 and a story on page 3, it seems the 50m pool trumps water supply and wastewater security (page 6). As usual the council must use funds on a priority basis, so what is it to be folks? Recreation in a bigger pool, or water supply and an efficient wastewater system? Anthony Malivanek, Bray Park
New hospital is an outstanding asset
I have needed to visit the new Tweed Valley Hospital at Cudgen on a couple of occasions recently and found the staff to be outstanding. We are so fortunate to have this hospital to service the needs of our valley and surrounding areas. There have been many people who were against this facility being built in our area. May I assume those who opposed the hospital in the first place and continue to be against the additional private extension for staff accommodation, specialist rooms and a university campus, will never use the facility and be prepared to use a private hospital in the future. C H Ainsworth, Kingscliff
Visitor grateful for the assistance
I am a visitor to Australia from Canada. On Sunday, August 16, I was riding a push bike on your very fine Northern Rivers Rail Trail. I was just across from the Stoker Siding school when I took a nasty tumble onto sharp gravel. A young couple came to my assistance and were a great help. They had a first-aid kit and took care of a few nasty cuts and abrasions. They drove my brother and I back to his home at Dunbible and he was able to return to the site of the accident to pick up our bikes. I do not have their names, but I would like to thank this couple for their help.

return to refuel and refill their water tanks before going back into action. Working in sequence, one after another, they could attack bushfire fronts while maintaining a safe distance between each aircraft. These aircraft could be placed on standby across each state, ready to respond when major bushfires occur. It is absolutely ridiculous to rely on what I believe are inadequate helicopters and other limited resources when bushfires are out of control. We need to invest in better equipment to protect lives, homes and communities. Colin Teasdale, Murwillumbah
We need infrastructure
My impression of Australians as a kind and generous people has been reinforced by their actions. Heather Inksetter, Windsor, Ontario
We need heavy firefighting equipment
I write about a subject which is very important in fighting severe and life-threatening bushfires and could help save lives. There is not enough emphasis on providing the equipment needed to fight major bushfires in my opinion. The loss of lives, homes and property is a great tragedy, yet the need for better firefighting resources continues to be ignored. My solution would be to purchase 100 Hercules transport aircraft from the United States. There are reportedly new Hercules aircraft sitting unused in storage. These could be fitted with stainless steel tanks capable of carrying large quantities of water and dropping controlled amounts onto bushfire fronts. The Hercules aircraft could then
I write in response to Katie Milne’s letter in The Weekly last week (August 20). The claim that secondary rural dwellings would increase rates for rate payers did not occur in any surrounding council districts who all allow second detached dwellings on rural properties. Most rural properties have their own water and sewerage treatment and do not rely on council run supplies/ services. If they require another bin, they pay for it like anyone else. Land banking. Look at the fiasco over Cobaki Lakes, not enough water? Tweed Shire Council under Katie Milne have always seemed to make life very difficult for even compliant developments in my view. This council spends a lot of money taking legal action against developments instead of spending said money on much needed ratepayers’ infrastructure.

Staged vote carried after tense exchange

By Jonathon Howard
The basketball community needs a home
A large group of petitioners have called for a 50-metre pool for Tweed's future
majority vote of which Mayor Chris Cherry, Cr Nola Firth, Cr Reece Byrnes and Cr Meredith Dennis attended. Cr Owen has been the strongest advocates for delivering the facilities together and a further motion could be raised during the September monthly meeting, but without a change in councillors’ views he may not have the numbers to alter the motion. The successful resolution, moved by Mayor Chris Cherry, prioritises the indoor sports component because of what the feasibility study described as an “urgent shortfall” in sporting courts. Continued on page 6
00098 Riverview Hotel QP
THE DIVISION between Tweed Shire councillors has arguably never been stronger, with the council chamber clearly split 4-3 over the future of a proposed indoor sports and aquatic centre at Tweed Heads, with three councillors subsequently attempting to overturn the decision earlier this week. The bitter debate has exposed a growing divide over the Tweed’s financial priorities, although all councillors agree that the future of water security via the Clarrie Hall dam wall raising as “extremely important”, but it’s a project that is now likely to exceed $300 million – of which only half is costed through state and federal government support. However, the topic that has the chamber split is the need for a 50-metre pool in conjunction with a new indoor sporting facility, and whether council should commit to the project in total or proceed in stages. It was noted prior to the meeting that all councillors and council support the development of a new 50-metre pool at the proposed Recreation Park site – but how do you pay for it? Councillors subsequently carried a 4-3 vote during the monthly meeting on Thursday, August 20, to prioritise construction of an indoor sports centre first while continuing to investigate options and funding for a future aquatic facility in a staged process. Councillor Rhiannon Brinsmead, Cr Kimberly Hone and Cr James Owen voted against the staged approach.. The decision was followed by an extraordinary meeting after the three dissenting councillors lodged a Notice to Alter seeking to overturn the decision. That attempt was also defeated by a

Question of funding remains priority Continued from page 5 Council’s study, which was attached to the motion, recommended progressing with the indoor sports facility first because it addresses an immediate service gap and represents a more affordable and financially achievable investment in the short to medium term. The next stage of detailed business case and concept designs for the indoor sports component is estimated to cost about $300,000 and can be funded through developer contributions. Including the aquatic component at this stage would add an estimated $300,000 to $500,000, but officers did not recommend doing so because the eventual location of the pool has not been determined. The resolution does, however, retain the 50-metre pool as a long-term objective and authorises the general manager to seek private or external partners capable of helping deliver the aquatic facility. Council’s financial concerns have been at the centre of the dispute. General Manager Troy Green stressed the $160 million figure being discussed is not simply the cost of a pool, but an estimate for a fully integrated regional facility incorporating indoor courts, a 50-metre pool, health and wellness facilities, allied health rooms, parking and supporting infrastructure. “Nobody at this council is against a pool,” Mr Green said. “The question in front of councillors ... isn’t whether the Tweed should have these facilities. It’s when we deliver them, how we pay for them, and who pays.” It was made clear in the meeting, which was long and tense, to say the least, but ultimately found that council has no money currently allocated to the complete project, with potential funding options including rates, borrowing, developer
“The resolution retains the 50-metre pool as a long-term objective” contributions, government grants, asset sales or private delivery. However, Cr Owen noted that he was concerned by a lack of innovation in the council on this and other projects, which he maintains is at the core of the debate. Council Director of Sustainable Communities and Environment Naomi Searle warned the financial impact could be significant. “The reality is that projects of this scale comes at a significant cost,” Ms Searle said. “If we were to proceed with this project without state or federal government funding the financial burden would fall to local ratepayers.” Council modelling estimates that, without grant funding, an average residential ratepayer could face an additional $441.51 a year, representing a 22.04 per cent increase above the rate peg. Even with an $80 million government grant, the model estimates an additional $247.44 a year, or a 12.35 per cent increase above the rate peg. Mr Green said the figures were not intended to frighten residents. “These are the real trade-offs. They are not scare tactics. They are the arithmetic,” he said. The disagreement has also centred on whether council should commit to the complete project in the hope of securing government funding. Council officers said major state and federal grants had become increasingly
difficult to secure and considered it unlikely the full cost of the project would be covered externally. Council is already seeking about $150 million in government funding to raise Clarrie Hall Dam, without securing a commitment to date. Mr Green said the funding landscape meant council could not simply assume governments would pay for the majority of a $160 million project. At the same time, the council resolution leaves the door open to private investment. The increasingly heated debate has also raised concerns about divisions within the community, particularly between swimming and indoor sports advocates. Mayor Cherry said council had received submissions supporting both positions and urged residents not to allow the debate to turn sporting groups against each other. “Nobody wants to see swimming pitted against any other indoor sports,” she said. The council debate has nevertheless continued online, with residents questioning whether council should focus on existing infrastructure such as roads, drainage, parks and footpaths before taking on another major asset. One resident wrote: “Maintain what we already own before building more that we have to maintain.” The aquatic network already costs ratepayers about $2.2 million a year, with officers recommending further analysis of how existing pools operate together and whether assets could be rationalised. For the three councillors who opposed the staged approach, the fear is that the future could possibly mean never.

Flight path
Continued from page 3. ...of individual aircraft using them,” Airservices said. “The noise from each individual aircraft movement is not expected to change; however, the number of aircraft using each path will change.” The straight-in approach currently crosses the coastline near South Kingscliff Beach, before travelling over Kingscliff and Cudgen, crossing the Tweed River and continuing towards the runway. The offset approach crosses the coastline further east near Wommin Bay, travels north of Chinderah and over the Tweed River before turning near Barneys Point to join the final approach. Airservices said the proposed change could mean fewer aircraft movements over some communities but more frequent aircraft noise events around others, including areas south-east of Banora Point. The change could also shorten some flight distances and provide air traffic controllers with greater flexibility in managing arrivals. Airservices has completed an environmental assessment, which found the proposed change in aircraft use may be noticeable for some communities. The proposal was referred to the Australian Government Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water, which advised it was not likely to have a significant environmental impact based on the information provided. Airservices will consider community feedback before making a final decision. Public consultation opened on Monday, August 24, and closes on Friday, September 18, with the proposed change potentially being implemented in October 2026.

Surfer returns to Tweed after life-changing accident By Jo Kennett
TWO YEARS after a devastating surfing accident left him with a spinal cord injury, Johnny Konings and his partner visited the Tweed Heads Police Station to thank officers who helped out on that fateful day and to share their story of resilience, gratitude and hope. In June 2024, a morning surf at Duranbah Beach became a life-changing event for Johnny, when he hit a sandbank and lost feeling in his lower body. He was rescued by surfers and airlifted to hospital in Brisbane with catastrophic spinal injuries. In June this year, almost two years to the day after the accident, Johnny and his partner Charlie Gordon visited Tweed Heads Police Station, meeting with police involved in the response and shared their experiences of the accident, the aftermath and recovery. “Johnny and Charlie spoke about the lasting impact the attending police had on them during one of the most traumatic days of their lives,” Tweed Byron Police said online last week. “They expressed their sincere gratitude for the calm, compassionate and professional manner of officers at the scene, saying the reassurance provided by police helped them navigate an overwhelming situation,” Charlie says the surfers who rushed to Johnny’s aid, along with the emergency responders who followed, played a crucial role on what she calls “day zero”. Two police officers in particular
“The possibilities are endless for you — get out there and enjoy your legs”
Charlie says that while it may have seemed like a small thing, at a time when their lives had been turned upside down, it meant a lot. “It lifted a weight from our shoulders,” Charlie said.
stayed in the couple’s minds. “We connected with the Tweed Police at D’bah on the worst day of our lives,” Charlie said. “They helped save Johnny’s life and their kindness, care and initiative has stuck with me since that day.” The certified wellness coach, with a background in psychology, delivered a workplace wellness workshop focused on self-regulation, burnout, resilience and operating effectively in high-stress environments such as the police force. “Whilst nothing could have prepared us for this, the years of investing in myself, education, self development and having many tools in my toolkit gave me a foundation that I was incredibly grateful for when our lives completely crumbled around us,” Charlie told The Weekly. “I know first hand how life-changing it truly is.” Johnny and Charlie shared the difficult reality of the past two years — the physical rehabilitation, emotional toll, uncertainty and the challenge of navigating life with a spinal cord injury. There were tears of gratitude and stories of unexpected kindness. One gesture remained with the couple: police arranging for Johnny’s vehicle to be taken home after the accident.
As New Zealand citizens living in Australia, the couple found themselves in limbo, unable to access government support for the ongoing private rehabilitation Johnny needs. “We knew in hospital that as soon as we were discharged we were on our own, so Charlie started brainstorming ideas for how we could earn money around the unknown of what our day to day would look like and her being my sole and primary carer,” Johnny said. “It started off with T-shirts to help fund the adaptive surfing competition Johnny wanted to enter,” Charlie said. “The support was overwhelming which led to another batch of t-shirts.” As Charlie was heading out for a beach walk one day, Johnny told her to “go enjoy those beautiful legs”. The phrase became a family mantra and the name of their growing movement, Enjoy Your Legs. “Charlie has built a community through sharing our journey, marketing and events and we released hats which have been a hit,” Johnny says. “We would never have believed a little over one year on what it has grown into, stockists, events, more merchandise and the opportunity to raise awareness for spinal cord injury

not just for us, but for the whole SCI community. “We have our annual October movement challenge coming up too which we are really looking forward to.” They say maintaining a positive outlook doesn’t mean pretending things are easy. “Our days are still filled with curveballs, grief, constant reminders of what we have lost, more stress than we knew possible and a lot of uncertainty,” they said. They focus instead on what they do have and “the fact I’m alive and get to be having these challenges, and be grateful for the support, kindness and generosity of others.” “That isn’t to say I don’t have moments when it all feels like too much, and it’s important to let yourself have those moments,” he said. “We call crying ‘liquid love’ because it happens often. “Having a partner that is constantly speaking life over you, bringing joy to every day, celebrating every win is a massive factor in my ability to stay positive. “I wouldn’t be here without Charlie in more ways than one.” They say the greatest lesson has been the importance of focusing on what can be controlled. “You may not have control over what happens to you in life, you can control how you respond,” they said. “Life can change in an instant, so make the most of what your body can do. “Your body and mind is incredibly powerful, so make the most of what it can do for you.The possibilities are

Plenty of new coppers welcomed Pottsville graffiti THERE ARE plenty of people signing up to become coppers and the Tweed and Northern NSW appear to be the place to be, as 17 new recruits hit the beat this week. The latest recruitment is the largest NSW Police graduation class in 14 years after the Minns Labor Government rebuilds the sector. Five new probationary constables have been deployed to the Tweed/Byron Police District, while eight have joined the Richmond Police District and nine the New England Police District. The recruits are part of Class 369, with 353 probationary constables sworn in after completing more than eight months of training at the Goulburn Police Academy. The latest intake brings the total number of new recruits since the Minns Government came to office to 55 for Tweed/Byron, 60 for Richmond and 61 for New England, according to Lismore MP Janelle Saffin. Ms Saffin said the record recruitment numbers demonstrated the Government’s efforts to rebuild the NSW Police Force. “Class 369 is the fifth consecutive class to set a new recruitment record, reflecting the Government’s efforts to rebuild the NSW Police Force and put more officers on the ground,” she said. She said the 22 new officers deployed across the three districts would strengthen policing across the region. Member for Tweed Geoff Provest welcomed the five new officers to his electorate at Tweed Heads Police Station as they started on Monday, August 24. “On behalf of the Tweed community, I am pleased to welcome them to their new command,” Mr Provest said.
charges
“I commend these new officers for their dedication”
“Police put their own safety on the line every day to protect our community, and I commend these new officers for their dedication.” Mr Provest wished the recruits well as they begin their policing careers. “I wish them all the best as they begin their policing careers and work to keep the Tweed community safe,” he said. The new officers will spend the next 12 months undertaking on-the-job training and distance education before graduating with an Associate Degree in Policing Practice and being confirmed as constables. NSW Police Minister Yasmin Catley said applications to join the force had increased by 70 per cent, following changes including paying recruits while they train at the Goulburn Police Academy. An additional class will also be added this year, taking the number of annual recruitment classes from three to four. “For three and a half years, we have worked every single day to rebuild the NSW Police, and a 70 per cent increase in applications and consecutive record-breaking attesting classes are prime examples of that work being done,” Ms Catley said. “There is more work to do, there always will be, but we are investing in the NSW Police and putting more officers where the community expects them – on the frontline.” The latest class includes 261 men and 92 women, ranging in age from 18 to 59. Fifteen recruits are First Nations people,

A 22-YEAR-OLD male from Pottsville has been charged with a graffiti offence on August 10, after being detected by Tweed Byron Police “during proactive patrols” of the Bogangar area. He was detected allegedly spray-painting tags on a Tweed Shire Council pump station. The damage caused is considerable and compensation will be sought at court for the cost of rectifying the damage caused. He is due to appear before Tweed Heads Local Court on September 21.
Jail for assault New Probationary Constables, Lismore, 24 August 2026
while 48 were born overseas across 25 countries. Collectively, the new officers speak 17 languages other than English. The NSW Government has also introduced initiatives including the ‘Be a Cop in Your Hometown’ program, Professional Mobility Program, Cadet Traineeship Program and Elite Athlete Program as part of its recruitment push. The new officers have now begun their first year of frontline policing across metropolitan, regional and rural communities, including the Tweed and Northern NSW.

A 36-YEAR-OLD female will spend months in jail over the assault of another woman in Murwillumbah last year. The Murwillumbah woman was convicted and sentenced to ten months in prison on Wednesday, August 19, at the Murwillumbah Local Court. The conviction was the result of a serious assault on a woman in the Murwillumbah CBD on October 7, 2025. The woman was pushed to the ground and suffered two fractured wrists which required surgical intervention. The sentence is subject to a non-parole period of six months with the earliest release date for the female being February 2027.

“ we underestimate what we are capable of” “I’ll be encouraging my clients to join the team,” David told The Weekly, joking that there might be some extra push-ups for punishment if they don’t. “The more people we can get to join in, and they can walk or run as little or as much as they want, the more kilometres goes towards the team total. “It’s a great way of bringing the community together for a good cause.” Since its inception, the Team Chase has engaged more than 16,000 participants across 316 local government areas, collectively moving more than 1.7 million kilometres and sparking more than 128,000 conversations about preventing domestic and family violence. Founded by ultra-marathon runner and advocate Kirrily Dear, Run Against Violence was created on the belief that lasting change happens when communities come together and start talking. To date, more than $565,000 has been invested into LoveBites, a national school-based program that teaches young people about healthy relationships and respectful behaviours. Run Against Violence also delivers ZeroDFV, a flagship initiative helping communities turn their desire for change into coordinated action. Funds raised through the entry fee support prevention programs, education and resources, with more than 60 per cent directed to regional, rural and remote areas. Registrations for the 2026 Broken Hill to Sydney Team Chase are open, with participants able to create their own team or join an existing one using the Team Finder. To join David’s team go to the Team Finder page: www.runagainstviolence. com/find-your-team/ and enter the Pottsville postcode, 2489, to find David Alley’s team.

ONE OF Australia’s most inspiring endurance athletes, Pottsville’s David Alley has run and cycled around the country – and now he’s calling on locals to join him in a very different challenge, helping prevent domestic and family violence. The former police officer has signed on as a Team Captain for Run Against Violence’s 2026 Broken Hill to Sydney Team Chase, a virtual event bringing Australians together to take action, start conversations and build awareness about domestic and family violence. Teams chase each other across a map, racing the clock to cover 1,300 kilometres, the distance from Broken Hill to Sydney, in just 19 days. The event begins on Sunday, August 30, with David building a team and calling on clients, friends and Tweed Coast residents to join him. Participants don’t need to be elite athletes — or even live in the same place. People can walk or run in their own neighbourhood, on their own schedule, and contribute their kilometres to the team’s collective progress. Cycling and other forms of physical activity can also count towards the challenge. “It’s not about breaking records,” David said. “It’s about collective effort and getting people talking about prevention.” David’s 20-year career as a police officer inspired him to join the Run Against Violence. “That exposed me to the reality of domestic and family violence and made me aware of how widespread and alarming it is and the need for change,” David told The Weekly. “It really comes back to education, even from a young age, on the impact of domestic violence and what we can do to stop it before it starts. “It’s a great cause but it’s also about getting people out and moving.” In 2011, David cycled 14,251 kilometres around Australia in 37 days, 20 hours and 45 minutes, setting a world record at the time, to raise funds for the Royal Flying Doctor Service. He had no previous cycling experience. Four years later, he ran 13,383 kilometres around the country in 169 days, setting another record, raising funds for the White Cloud Foundation. “They operate programs for depression and anxiety, particularly in women after birth,” David said. In 2023 David, then aged 47, became the fastest man to kayak the Murray River, beating the old record by 19 hours and 25 minutes. He paddled for up to 23 hours a day, with almost no sleep for 15 days and says the biggest lesson he has learned is “the ability we have as humans.” “We underestimate what we are capable of,” he said. “The challenges are more mental than physical, and those ups and downs translate back to normal life. “The things you thought were difficult before really aren’t that difficult.” David runs Mindset Health & Fitness from his private studio in Pottsville, helping people build long-term health and fitness.

Flurry of backyard One battery could burn-offs spark up By Jonathon Howard
A FLURRY of backyard burn-offs is taking place across the Tweed Shire this week as residents prepare for an earlier start to the Bush Fire Danger Period. The NSW Rural Fire Service has announced the temporary Bush Fire Danger Period will begin across Tweed, Byron, Ballina, Kyogle, Lismore and Richmond Valley on September 1 — a month ahead of the statewide start. Please note once the BFDP begins, landowners and managers will need a Fire Permit from their local Fire Control Centre before lighting any fires, including hazard reduction burns. The RFS also reminded residents that on Total Fire Ban days, all Bush Fire Hazard Reduction Certificates are automatically revoked. The early declaration follows prevailing dry conditions across the Far North Coast and Northern Rivers, with the RFS urging residents to prepare now for the bush fire season. RFS Superintendent Stephen Quinlan said having a bush fire survival plan was essential. “Having a bush fire survival plan will ensure all members of the household know what to do on days of increased fire danger and what to do if their home is threatened by fire,” he said. Superintendent Quinlan said preparation was a shared responsibility, with recent research showing only about half of residents in bush fire-prone areas had undertaken preparatory work on their properties. Residents are being urged to remove flammable materials from yards, clear leaves from gutters and check hoses can reach all areas around their homes. Hazard reduction activities may also be appro-

priate, but residents are being urged to contact their local Fire Control Centre for advice before lighting up. Further information about hazard reduction burning, permits and notifications is available through the RFS website.

A SINGLE battery tossed into a household bin could trigger a dangerous fire inside a waste truck, putting workers, emergency crews and nearby homes and businesses at risk. The warning comes after dozens of battery-related fires across the Northern Rivers, including blazes in waste trucks and landfill sites and one fire that seriously damaged a building at a Resource Recovery Centre.
“Waste operators are urging residents to think twice before throwing away batteries.” Waste operators are now urging Tweed residents to think twice before throwing away anything containing a battery, particularly lithium-ion and rechargeable devices. “When a battery is crushed inside a truck’s compactor, it can short-circuit, overheat or vent gas,” a waste industry spokesperson said. Drivers are trained to dump a truck’s load as soon as smoke appears because continuing to drive can intensify the fire. Lithium-ion batteries are found in a growing list of everyday items, including vapes, electric toothbrushes, Bluetooth speakers, e-scooters, robotic vacuums and power tools. Residents are reminded never to put loose batteries or battery-powered devices in household bins. Up to 20kg of loose batteries, mobile phones

and car batteries can be dropped off for free at the Community Recycling Centre at the Tweed Resource Recovery Centre, Leddys Creek Rd, Stotts Creek. Loose batteries can also be taken to B-cycle drop-off points at many supermarkets and hardware stores. Devices with embedded batteries require special handling and should be taken to designated drop-off sites at the Lismore, Kyogle or Ballina Community Recycling Centres. “It only takes one battery to spark a fire – but a little care at home can prevent a very big fire down the road,” the spokesperson said.

The project uses nest boxes and habitat structures to encourage native species including owls, bats, gliders and pollinators. This innovative approach is helping to address rat populations while supporting pollination. Rats can cause significant damage to macadamias, avocados and other horticultural crops, as well as farm machinery and vehicles. Encouraging natural predators such as owls provides benefits for both farm productivity and the environment. During the morning, we'll explore the wildlife habitat and nest box installations and discuss how farmers can incorporate native wildlife into their own pest management strategies. Afterwards, enjoy some fresh fruit by the creek while connecting with other local farmers and asking questions of the project team.

Keeping water flowing after major pipeline break A major break on a trunk water main along Tweed Valley Way last week prompted a rapid response from Council's Water Team to protect water supplies, repair the damage and minimise disruptions for the community. The complex repair required crews to remove trees to access the damaged section, reroute water supplies to keep homes connected and manage traffic safely while excavation and repair works were carried out. In total, 3 sections of the trunk main were replaced, restoring full service to the area. Council's Manager Water & Wastewater Operations, Brie Jowett, said the team's quick action helped avoid what could have been a much larger disruption. "A break on a trunk main can affect thousands of homes and businesses. These jobs are big, technical and often unpredictable, so every minute counts," Ms Jowett said. “Our Water Team takes great pride in keeping the Tweed’s water network running, and this repair is a great example of their skill and commitment.” Council thanks motorists for their patience during the works and acknowledges the Water Team for their outstanding effort in restoring service quickly and safely. If you notice water leaks or urgent issues that pose a safety risk, please contact Council immediately on 02 6670 2400, including after hours.
Funding is available for community-led events that bring people together including barbecues.
Have your say on Hastings Point wastewater upgrade Community feedback is now open on a draft report and 2 proposed upgrade options for the Hastings Point Wastewater Treatment Plant.
The Hastings Point Wastewater Treatment Plant services about 12,860 residents and visitors across the area.
The plant services about 12,860 residents and visitors across Cabarita Beach, Bogangar, Hastings Point and Pottsville. The proposed upgrade will modernise the ageing treatment plant to ensure consistent reliability in servicing the population and our visitors, maintain compliance with EPA requirements and safeguard the local environment. Two treatment options have been shortlisted, following community consultation in 2024. Both are designed to meet strict NSW Environment Protection Authority standards and would continue using the existing dune disposal system for treated water. The main differences between the options are the treatment technology used and the cost to build and operate each system. Residents can review the draft report and provide their feedback until 20 September 2026. For more information and to have your say, visit yoursaytweed.com.au/hastings-point-plant-upgrade
Staff from Council's Water Team make repairs to the water main last week.
Tweed Shire Council wishes to acknowledge the Ngandowal and Minyungbal speaking people of Bundjalung Country, in particular the Goodjinburra, Tul-gi-gin and Moorung – Moobah clans, as being the traditional owners and custodians of the land and waters within the Tweed Shire boundaries.

Many ways to ‘Have Your Say’ on growth By Jo Kennett
00111 Butchers Table HP
COUNCIL HAS sought to reassure residents that there are alternatives to the Have Your Say online portal on the Draft Growth Management, Housing and Employment Strategy (GMHES) and managing population growth over the next 15 years. There are major changes planned with 19 Development Focus Areas (DFA) identified, including proposals to rezone some residential areas in local towns from low density to medium density. Some residents told The Weekly the GMHES survey was hard to fill in, and would exclude many, especially the elderly, from having a say about changes which directly affect them. Tweed Shire Council’s Denise Galle, Director Planning & Regulation, said that Council is “open to all types of submissions,” which close on August 31. “Respondents aren’t limited to filling in an online survey,” she said. “They can also write a separate email or letter. “If they prefer, they can visit a Council office and write down some comments in hard copy and submit those as well. “Hard copy surveys can also be made available in Council offices. “With regards to the ‘online’ survey it is not mandatory for respondents to fill in a response to all questions. “There is opportunity to only comment on a specific item that they would like considered. “If all else fails, we are also open to receiving phone calls if certain people prefer that mode of providing feedback. However, we prefer written comments. “That way we can record more formally who said what and provide a response to those submissions accordingly.”
“The woman said she was frustrated by the lack of understanding of the community about what the proposed changes are and the impact they would have.”
A Cabarita Beach/Bogangar Residents Association (CBBRA) spokesperson said the submission portal wasn’t ideal. “The Your Say portal is an efficient tool for councils but effectively locks out those who are less confident readers, are nervous about computers (or not online) and suspicious of institutional surveys which thereby excludes many residents,” the spokesperson said. Survey troubles Bogangar resident Judy Wagner said she thought it was more difficult to fill in than other Have Your Say surveys. Respondents are asked a number of questions which relate to different parts of the 173-page GMHES document. There is the option to click ‘Unsure’ and move on to the next question.
However, residents like Judy, who want to have a say on how growth plans for the whole shire, have to cross-reference the relevant part of the document and read through what is proposed, before they answer each survey question. “I was pestering people to do the survey and then I went to do it and I felt so terrible because it was just so difficult to do,” Judy said. “I’m fairly computer-literate and normally I don’t have a problem with them but I just found this one very user unfriendly. “I was a bit overwhelmed and was trying to wade through it because it’s a big document. “They’re not things that people have an understanding of and it wasn’t written in language that was easy for normal people to understand. “I was determined to have my say and fill it in because I knew it was important and I knew I wanted to get across the points I had in mind, but I didn’t think I did.” Judy said she spoke to a CBBRA member about her difficulties and was told others were having trouble too.
“I don’t see how they are going to be able to get people’s response to the survey,” she said. “It feels a bit like a government department where they hope you start it and it’s too hard and you just go away.” Judy attended one of several Council information sessions on the proposed changes to get more information. “That was good,” she said, and other residents agreed. “They talked about affordable, social and community housing which is all to do with the plans for Caba.” Judy also got a version of the plan she downloaded to her phone to make it easier to cross-reference. A Pottsville resident who didn’t want to be named said she had issues with the GMHES document and Have Your Say survey being online. “This area (where rezoning of low-rise residential to medium density is proposed) has high numbers of people in their early 80s who do not even have the internet,” she said. “To me this is cutting out a lot of people who would not approve. “I have gone to several neighbours and helped them fill it in on my laptop.” The woman said she was frustrated by the lack of understanding of the community about what the proposed changes are and the impact they would have. “It almost directs your answers and does not ask exacting questions.” Another resident questioned the point of the survey, saying community input often seemed to be ignored. Submissions close at 4pm on Monday, August 31. YOUR THOUGHTS: The Weekly is interested in your thoughts on a changing Tweed? Please email your thoughts and letters via email: editor@ theweekly.net.au

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals Keep an eye out for this lovely girl around Pottsville Public School INSET: A koala crossing the road just east of Pottsville Ambulance Station on the weekend Photo Irene Timmins
Koalas are on the move By Jo Kennett
LOCALS ARE being urged to keep an eye out for koalas on the move as breeding season gets underway, as they often cross roads and become vulnerable to vehicle strikes. One of only around 144 endangered Tweed Coast koalas has become a much-loved and regular visitor to Pottsville Beach Public School, and students and staff are keen to spread the word about their visitor. The female is often seen in the trees on the school grounds or in adjoining bushland. “Each time the koala visits, the students and staff take time to view our special visitor from a safe distance and to speak with our students about the things we can do to support and care for our local environment and animals,” school principal Trisha Parker said. “The school mascot is Gumnut the Boorabi (koala).” Local wildlife rescuer Amber Cameron was contacted by the school to check on the koala’s health. “By the time I located the animal, it had moved about 50 metres from the school grounds into the swamp melaleuca forest adjoining Koala Beach,” Amber said. “I recorded the koala’s location and checked for any signs of illness. “Thankfully, the koala appeared to be a healthy adult female. “She was bright and active, climbing with purpose into the canopy, and soon disappeared
further into the bushland.” The population of Tweed Coast koalas has declined by around 50 per cent from around 300 a decade ago, due to a combination of bushfires, habitat loss and fragmentation, vehicle strikes, domestic dog attacks, and disease. Community representative on Tweed Shire Council’s Tweed Coast Koalas Advisory Committee Irene Timmins registers community sightings on Council’s Koala Atlas, including one crossing Pottsville Road near the ambulance station recently. She said every sighting of a koala in the region was important to record because it gives Council an accurate record of how well our koalas are doing and their location. “It’s also important if there are any health concerns, or if the koala is in danger, it is reported promptly to Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers or Friends of the Koala, our local koala rescue groups,” she said. “Koalas are presently on the move and can turn up unexpectedly. “Koalas on roads are particularly vulnerable, requiring motorists to be vigilant and keep to safe speeds, particularly in koala zones and on roads intersecting and adjoining bushland areas. “Council is able at times to respond to recent sightings of koalas crossing roads and put up warning signage. “So be on the lookout for our precious koalas, drive at safe speeds and enjoy the privilege of sharing your neighbourhoods with them.”

Parks bring life after flood By Jonathon Howard
SOMETIMES RECOVERY after a disaster is measured not in millions-of-dollars or major infrastructure projects, but in the simple sound of children playing again. For communities across the Tweed, the reopening of local parks and playgrounds damaged by the devastating 2022 floods has become a powerful sign that life is returning to normal. The latest and final chapter of Tweed Shire Council’s Facing the River series, which has focused on the recovery, shines a light on the importance of neighbourhood open spaces and the role they have played in the region’s ongoing recovery. Through the $15.5 million Community Assets Program, jointly funded by the Australian Federal and NSW governments, Council has upgraded parks and open spaces from Pottsville to Uki, with a focus on making them more resilient, accessible and welcoming. One of the standout projects is Turnock Park at Chinderah, which was transformed after being badly affected by the floods. Once a modest neighbourhood playground, the upgraded park now features a themed playground with a fairy house, Shroom House and nature play, as well as a scooter loop, picnic areas, shelters, an accessible barbecue, drinking fountain, public toilets and resurfaced car park. The project has already received recognition, being named the Parks & Leisure Australia NSW/ACT Playspace Award winner in the under-$1 million category in July. It will now progress to the national awards in Melbourne in November. Council Manager Parks and Active Communities Murray Smith said the program had delivered benefits well beyond indi-
Choir for a cause
Bush Kindy staff and students are loving their new park again at Chinderah
vidual parks. “Many communities with flood-damaged open space have been included, and every upgrade follows the same principles: building back better, improving accessibility and creating more resilient, better-designed places for everyone,” he said. Council Team Leader Open Space Planning and Design Jodie Hewett said parks were often overlooked during flood recovery, despite being hugely important to families. “When the playground at Turnock Park reopened, we heard from parents who said their kids had been asking about it for months,” Ms Hewett said. “These spaces matter to communities in ways that go well beyond recreation. They’re where daily life happens.” The transformation extends along the Chinderah corridor, with John Oxley Park
also receiving a $347,560 upgrade, including accessible facilities, shelters, picnic areas, pathways and a drinking fountain. Together, the two Chinderah projects represent a $1.4 million investment. Other parks benefiting include Saddle Way Park at Bray Park and Sweetnam Park at Uki, which now feature improved play, recreation and accessibility facilities. For families such as those attending Smiley Tots Daycare, the improvements are already making a difference. Bush Kindy educator Rebecca Pollock said Turnock Park had become a valuable place for children to explore and connect with nature. The Facing the River series highlights how, after the devastation of the floods, rebuilding these small community spaces is helping restore something much bigger — a sense of belonging, routine and hope.
MURWILLUMBAH PHILHARMONIC Choir is hosting its special annual fundraising performance at Jessie McMillan Hall on Saturday, August 29, for Tweed Palliative Support Wedgetail Retreat (TPS). The choir will commence from 2.30pm with refreshments and cake after the choir. This is a great opportunity to support Tweed’s premium palliative support service, that’s entirely self-funded. TPS president Meredith Dennis said she was “extremely thankful” to the choir for its ongoing support. “This event has been running for many years and is another great way to keep a service such as ours going,” she said. “I’d encourage residents to come along and listen to an incredible local choir and enjoy friendly company for a great cause.” Entry fees is $20 for adults and $15 for concession card holders and children are free (under 12) with all proceeds going towards TPS Wedgetail Retreat. For further information please phone (02) 6672 8459.
Car park reopens AFTER YEARS of delays and parking pains, Tweed Shire Council officially reopen the multi-level car park in Murwillumbah’s CBD on Thursday, August 20. The facility will be ready for parking across all three levels: ground, mid and top levels. This will add around 150 more car parks to the CBD and follows a lengthy works project after a vehicle fire. It should be noted that motorists are now required to pay for a parking permit on the middle undercover area, which is $2 per parking day and is available from the council office or the pool reception. There is also an application form on the Tweed Shire Council website for businesses wanting to reinstate a reserved parking space, which are being assessed this month.

OLDER ADULTS across the Tweed Valley are being encouraged to combine movement and social connection through a new Chair Yoga & Coffee program running three mornings a week. The gentle chair-based sessions focus on building strength, mobility and balance without mats or floor work, followed by coffee and a chance to socialise. The program runs Mondays at Murwillumbah Community Centre, Wednesdays at Uki Hall and Fridays at Tumbulgum Hall. Healthy North Coast Associate Director, Aged Care and Living Well, Jo Winwood said the program could play an important role in healthy ageing. “Dementia is set to double in 10 years and is the leading cause of death in our region,” Ms Winwood said. “The latest global evidence shows us that
physical activity, social connections and good nutrition can reduce the risk of dementia by 50 per cent.” The program is jointly funded by Healthy North Coast through the North Coast PHN program and Northern NSW Local Health District, and delivered by local wellness business Meet Move Eat. The sessions are designed for people aged 50 and over, with no previous yoga experience required. The first session is free, followed by a $10 fee per session.

Shock over Pottsville rezoning plans Help our farmers LOCALS LIVING in the area south and west of the Pottsville Tavern are not happy about plans to investigate rezoning several blocks of residential homes, to allow medium density development. The plans are part of the Draft Growth Management, Housing and Employment Strategy (GMHES), which is open for submissions on Council’s Have your Say website as well as by email or letter until 4pm on Monday, August 31 As part of the GMHES to accommodate population growth in the shire over the next 15 years, Council has identified a number of Development Focus Areas (DFA) around the shire. Council is proposing to investigate rezoning a proposed DFA at Pottsville to extend the R3 Medium Density Residential around the tavern. The DFA area south of Pottsville Tavern is bounded by Overall Drive and Victoria Avenue, and extends west to include the large block bounded by Royal Drive and Victoria Avenue. The GMHES states it includes “consideration of a staged approach,” with land north of Victoria Avenue considered first before any further consideration of land to the south. Currently zoned R2 Low-Density Residential (one to two storeys and maximum nine metres) it could be rezoned to R3 (three to four storeys, 9 metres to 13.6 metres). However, the GMHES states that the NSW Housing SEPP allows up to a 30 per cent “building bonus” for developments that include at least 10 per cent affordable housing, which could, theoretically, see buildings as high as 17.68 metres (five or six storeys).
The strategy would allow a mix of housing including dual occupancies, terraces, multi-dwellings and residential flat buildings. Colin Gage has lived in Pottsville for 30 years and lives in Royal Drive, which he says hasn’t changed much in that time but is part of the DFA. “I’m against multi-storey around here,” Colin said. “Where the houses are now just leave them as they are. “If you’re going to build out near the highway, which they are anyway, go ahead.” Colin says the area is one of the oldest parts of Pottsville, with most of the houses in the DFA built in the 1980s, however parts of it flood, which makes underground parking a problem. “If they have units around us, shadowing is going to be a problem,” he said. “Where people park is too. “It just makes me wonder who has got their finger in the pie that wants development around here. “I have nothing against people building west of Pottsville (in the areas already approved for development such as Dunloe Park and the proposed industrial estate) but why around here?” Another resident, who didn’t want to be named, said she was concerned that locals didn’t understand the changes Council was investigating. “What they are trying to do is change parts of Pottsville from R2 to R3,” the resident said. “The majority of people would not read up to and past page 124 (the relevant page in the GMHES document). “The area they want to change is around the tavern. “This area was one of the first areas de-
TWEED RESIDENTS are being encouraged to help carry the weight for farming families facing drought, flood recovery, fires and rising costs. Rural Aid is calling on residents to please support farmers dealing with the pressures of life on the land, with many families reluctant to ask for help when times get tough. Queensland farmer Tanya Bertram recently received hay and financial assistance from Rural Aid after drought left the creek on her 250-acre Dalveen property dry. “We’ve still got possibly six months that we’re going to be hand feeding livestock. That’s quite costly,” Tanya said. She said supporting farmers was important because they provided the food Australians relied on. “This is where your food comes from,” she said. Chinchilla cattle farmer Les Mayer also received assistance after a severe storm destroyed his hay shed and damaged his home. “It’s just a big relief that Rural Aid has come and done all this for us,” Les said. Rural Aid CEO John Warlters said donations could help provide hay, financial assistance, disaster relief and mental health support. “Farmers do so much for all of us, and when dealing with adversity, they need Australians in their corner too,” Mr Warlters said. Donations can be made at ruralaid.org.au/carrytheweight or by calling 1300 327 624.
The DFA bounded by Victoria Avenue, Royal Drive and Overall Drive
This area on Overall Drive is included in the DFA

Vietnam Veterans’ Day, commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Battle of Long Tan On the 18th August each year we honour the courage, service and sacrifice of Australians who served during the Vietnam War and this year we commemorated the 60th anniversary of the Battle of Long Tan, one of the most significant engagements in Australia’s military history. On 18 August 1966, soldiers from D Company, 6th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment, faced overwhelming odds in a fierce battle against a much larger Viet Cong and North Vietnamese force in the Long Tan rubber plantation in Phuoc Tuy Province, South Vietnam. For three hours, they fought in difficult and dangerous conditions. Eighteen Australians were killed and 24 were wounded. The Battle of Long Tan has since become an enduring part of Australia’s military history and a defining moment for those who served in the Vietnam War. Sixty years on, the legacy of Long Tan continues to resonate across generations. Vietnam Veterans’ Day is an opportunity to honour not only those who served on the battlefield, but also the families, loved ones and communities who supported them during the conflict and in the years that followed.
We also remember the more than 60,000 Australian service men and women who served in the Vietnam War. Of those, 523 made the ultimate sacrifice and almost 2,400 were wounded. Many Vietnam veterans returned home to a nation deeply divided over the war. In the decades since, Australians have gained a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by those who served and the lasting impact of their experiences. I am honoured to attend the service at South Tweed Sports Club with our local veterans each year to acknowledge their sacrifice, recognise the contribution they made to our nation, and reaffirm our commitment to ensuring their stories and those of their families are remembered for generations to come.
Sporting Legends The Tweed is fortunate to be home to so many talented young athletes and sporting champions. I am always proud to meet with our local athletes, hear about their achievements and learn more about their goals and aspirations for the future. Their dedication, determination and passion for sport are an inspiration to our community.

32 NRL Tipping Competition Thursday, August 27, 2026
with Quinny
TWO ROUNDS to go and plenty of talking points. The Roosters have let a perfect opportunity of a minor premiership slip getting rolled by the lowly Tigers in a Sunday night epic. Jock Madden’s 79th min field goal ended a run of 10 losses by the Tigers and will make it super difficult for the Chooks to finish on top now based on percentages. They have a massive game this week against the Dolphins which will determine the all important top 4. Adam Reynolds won’t get the farewell he wanted announcing this season will be his last and he has played his last game due to a calf injury. Reynolds finishes his career with two premierships at Souths and the Broncos as well as multiple state of origins. His body started to fail him towards the end but it has been a stellar career as he will take up a coaching role at the Broncos in 2027. The PNG Chiefs are certainly causing a stir with the signing spree that is occurring. The recent addition of Brian To’o and now Joey Manu from Rugby as well as Raiders star Hudson Young heading over for a look is ruffling plenty of feathers with the money on offer. One thing is for sure they are going to roll out a pretty decent decent squad straight up. They need to fund and develop home grown players quickly as the PNG Hunters have not gone great in the Q cup for a while and this year is no different. Titans NRLW are the talk of the town winning seven straight to sit in outright second spot and toppling the big spending Broncos who have

now slipped to fifth a few weeks out. Without a doubt the quality has highly increased. I spent the weekend watching the Qld U14s girls trials and even at that young age there is plenty of talented young female players playing our game. Week 2 of the NRRRL will decide who hosts the grand final with the Mustangs taking on Casino at home with the winner getting the week off and the privilege of a home grand final. If the games this weekend are half as good as last weekend we should be in for some quality local entertainment. Mullimbimby will continue their dream season when they take on Marist Brothers in the other elimination semi final. You can feel the tension on the air as we reach the pointy end and the footy is ramping up. See you at the footy. Quinny

Special Father’s Day for Ayesha Gough By Madeleine Murray
THE NORTHERN RIVER SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA (NRSO) is presenting Spring Sensations, an intimate chamber concert featuring clarinettist Nathaniel Smorti and the electrifying pianist Ayesha Gough on Father’s Day, Sunday, September 6. Father’s Day has a very special meaning for Ayesha Gough, who grew up in Murwillumbah. She never knew her father and had lost all hope of ever finding him until last year. When I write about the NRSO, I often ask Ayesha about the work she will be performing. She always answers with profound insights into the music and her feelings. Ayesha will be playing Fauré’s Piano Quartet No. 1 in C minor, Op. 15, with her usual explosive talent. Her passion, drama and beauty bring music to life with a marvelous intensity. “The Fauré is very lush,” she said. “It’s quite Romantic but with a French twinge to the harmonies which is sometimes very unexpected.” Then she revealed her personal, extraordinary story.

the brilliant pianist. She married the great conductor Marco Bellasi on January 8, she met her father for the first time on December 24 and celebrated her 30th birthday on December 28. When I asked if her father was able to hear her play the piano, she replied, “Yep! We were able to find a piano in a local church and Marco and I gave a mini-concert for my dad, his wife, her sister, and my grandparents!” Spring Sensations program includes Mozart’s famous and adored Clarinet Quintet in A Major, K.581, followed by M Bruch’s 8 Pieces for Clarinet, Viola and Piano. NRSO Chamber Ensemble violinists Alison Fletcher and Hugh Won, violist Jasmine Smith, and cellist Katherine Hopkins will make it the perfect Father’s Day to remember. Especially for Ayesha Gough. Spring Sensations is on at 2:30pm on Sunday, September 6, at the Tweed Heads Civic Centre, Brett Street, Tweed Heads. For tickets, go to nrso.com.au

“Something possibly very interesting about my relationship to this piece is that I heard it performed for the first time by the Chicago Piano Quartet, back in January in a place in Florida that just happens to be named Melbourne. “I was in the States on a very important trip – I was meeting my father for the first time in my life. Through Ancestry DNA and a USbased volunteer research team, I was able to find him in 2025 after a lifetime of thinking I would never meet him. “So, when I am playing the Fauré now, I’m quite often thinking back to that concert in Florida and that very special time of my life.” The year 2025 was a monumental year for

AT THREE years old, Anh Do reached Australia on a crowded fishing boat after surviving pirate attacks, dehydration and time in a Malaysian refugee camp. More than four decades later, his humour, stories and paintings have become part of Australia’s cultural landscape. We know him from comedy stages and television screens; our children know him through WeirDo, Ninja Kid, Hotdog and Wolf Girl. Anh arrived as a refugee and became someone Australians are proud to call one of our own. At a time when Pauline Hanson and One Nation are drawing renewed support through arguments about immigration and national identity, his life offers a human counterpoint - a reminder that refugees are not abstract numbers, but future neighbours, artists and children whose contributions cannot yet be imagined. Anh studied Business and Law but chose stand-up comedy. His energetic storytelling took him from Sydney comedy clubs to soldout appearances at the Sydney Opera House and Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Television made him a familiar presence through programs including Thank God You’re Here and Anh Does. On the ABC’s Anh’s Brush with Fame, he painted prominent Australians while drawing out the experiences that shaped them. His memoir, The Happiest Refugee, won Australian Book of the Year and other major honours. He transformed it into a stage production combining stand-up, family photographs, filmed pieces and painful memories. His portrait of

actor and activist Jack Charles also won the 2017 Archibald Prize People’s Choice award. Here in Murwillumbah, young reader Sierra knows him first as the creator of WeirDo. “Definitely the humour,” she told the Weekly. “His books are so creative and funny.” Asked what she would say to Anh, Sierra had one question: “What is your inspiration?” Tweed audiences may find an answer when Anh steps into Twin Towns’ 1,050-seat Showroom for the first time. Its tiered design gives the production scale while keeping audiences close - a fitting balance for such a personal story. Anh Do’s The Happiest Refugee Live is at Twin Towns Showroom, 2 Wharf Street, Tweed Heads, on Thursday, September 24 at 7.30pm. Tickets are from $69 plus booking fee. The show is for ages seven and over. Book at twintowns.com.au or phone 1800 014 014

THE FINAL games have been played, but a revitalised committee, more than 150 players and a refurbished clubhouse have made 2026 a standout season for the Uki Pythons. The grassroots soccer club enjoyed a surge of new sign-ons, welcomed experienced players from other clubs and fielded nine teams - from junior grades through to three senior men’s teams and a women’s team. Junior coordinator and coach Owen Noonan said the club’s success reflected the “outstanding efforts” of president and coach Andy Bennett, treasurer Tereasa Bennett, their daughter Sienna, the canteen coordinator, Jamie Jones, Guido Annoni and the rest of the new committee. “This year has seen a real surge of fresh energy for the club,” Owen told The Weekly. “We have a fresh and enthusiastic committee that just knows how to get things done.” Andy said the club was about much more than winning trophies. “We’re about giving kids and adults a safe, fun and active space to play, make friends and fall in love with the game,” he said. The club is particularly grateful for parents who step forward to coach MiniRoos teams even when they have never played soccer themselves - so younger children do not miss out. Like most grassroots sporting clubs, however, the Pythons are always looking for more hands. Canteen and barbecue helpers, game-day coordinators, assistant coaches, team managers and casual committee support are all needed. “To put it bluntly, without volunteers the wheels stop turning,” Andy told The Weekly. “If the canteen isn’t staffed, the club loses

crucial fundraising revenue that keeps registration fees affordable and buys new gear. If we don’t have enough managers or coaches, we have to turn kids away because we can’t safely supervise or run teams.” The recent World Cup also created a ripple effect, bringing busier home games and locals together in the upgraded clubhouse to watch the Socceroos. But Andy believes the club’s greatest contribution is the village it creates. “You meet your neighbours, share a laugh on the sidelines and become part of something bigger than yourself,” he said. The season will be celebrated on Saturday, September 26, with a parents-versus-kids game, presentations, laser skirmish, a jumping castle, food and drinks, and the Brett Gannon Band. With sign-ons opening in January, prospective players, volunteers and sponsors can contact the committee through the club’s official Facebook group @ukipythonsfc

LINDISFARNE ANGLICAN Grammar School has unveiled plans for its Mahers Lane Junior School campus at Terranora, as well as childcare and boarding facilities, which is alongside its long-term vision for expanding the school. The school is preparing a Development Application for the next stage of the campus, alongside a Master Plan to guide development over the coming decades. The proposed Junior School would accommodate 300 Kindergarten to Year 4 students, with 30 full-time staff and 37 car park spaces. The staged development would also provide a 132-bed boarding facility, on-site staff accommodation and a childcare centre. The popular school has also attempted to address traffic flow with the plans to include a drop-off and pick-up area accommodating up to 97 cars and 10 buses, which will help address traffic congestion on Mahers Lane. Plans include contemporary learning spaces, an AFL oval, additional car parking, maintenance and operational facilities, outdoor learning and recreation areas, landscaping and improvements to campus access and circulation. Lindisfarne received $8 million through the Independent Schools NSW Education Infrastructure Fund to support the construction of the Middle School building and Senior Centre, both now completed, and the proposed Mahers Lane Junior School. The longer-term Master Plan outlines an ambitious vision for the campus, identifying potential future facilities including an aquatic centre, sports centre of excellence, performing arts centre, science building, rugby fields, tartan running track and multi-purpose hard courts. The plan also includes expanded outdoor learning and recreation areas, future landscaping and environmental initiatives and support-

ing infrastructure. However, the school stressed the Master Plan is a long-term framework rather than a commitment to immediately build every proposed facility. “The Master Plan is a strategic vision and roadmap for the future,” the proposal states. “It does not mean all elements will be delivered immediately.” The campus vision is based around flexible learning environments, connected and walkable spaces, indoor and outdoor learning areas, and designs responding to the site’s natural landscape, climate and sustainability. Lindisfarne Principal Stuart Marquardt said community input would be important as the plans progress. “Lindisfarne has grown alongside our community for more than 45 years, and as our region continues to grow, it is important that we plan carefully for the future,” Mr Marquardt said. “We invite our neighbours, families and the wider community to learn more about the proposals, ask questions and share their feedback.” The proposal is being assessed under the NSW planning framework and is subject to the Secretary’s Environmental Assessment Requirements, with community consultation forming part of the process. Formal feedback on the Master Plan and Development Application is open until 8am Monday, September 7, with submissions to be considered as part of the planning and assessment process.

Surfing history made at Tweed Coast Pro
Maverick Wilson meets Mitchell Peterson in the Airshow Photo WSL
By Jo Kennett
HISTORY HAS been made at the Tweed over the weekend at the MURF Electric Bikes Tweed Coast Pro Junior World Surf League (WSL) with Siqi Yang taking out the wom-
en’s event to become the first Chinese surfer to win a WSL event outside China. Newcastle’s Ocean Lancaster, who now lives at Caba, claimed an impressive win in the men’s, consolidating his position at the top of the Austra-
lia/Oceania leaderboard, with Fingal’s Dane Henry in second on the board, although he didn’t compete. Yang and Lancaster overcame a field of nearly 100 of the Australia/ Oceania region’s best surfers aged 20 and under in tricky but fun waves at Duranbah Beach. The mobile event is run by Kingscliff Boardriders with Dane’s mum Kiri once again taking on the major task of coordinating the whole show. The competition forms half of the MURF Coast Cup, a two-event series that will determine the final qualifiers for the WSL World Junior Championships that will take place in El Salvador in November, with Lancaster pretty well guaranteed a spot there now. Siqi Yang, who grew up in mountainous Sichuan and didn’t see the
ocean until she was nine, became the second Chinese surfer to win a WSL event and the first to win one outside China. Yang was the youngest surfer to compete in the Paris Olympics, taking on Teahupo’o in 2024 at the age of 15. Kingscliff Boardriders’ Ava Arghyros, like her brother Lachy and with a similarly impressive vertical backhand attack, got knocked out in her Round of 24 heat, which Yang won, needing just 0.54 to advance. Lancaster posted consistent heat totals throughout the rounds to eventually claim victory over Jesse Fergusson (AUS), Keenan Crisp (AUS), and Harley Walters (AUS) in the Final. Lachy Argyros won his Round of 64 heat but went down in the Round of 32 when he failed to get a decent
back-up in the small waves, which were mostly closing out with the lower tide. With minutes to go, he picked one that tapered but only got one vertical backhand hit in before it shut down. He lost the heat needing just a 3.94 to advance. Lachy is now 11th on the Australia/Oceania Junior Tour rankings and needs a good result in the next event at Noosa if he wants to get to El Salvador. Kingscliff Boardriders’ Jackson Collet also competed but was knocked out in the Round of 64. Dane Henry had to skip the event his mum organised after he broke his ankle at Trestles, forcing him to withdraw from the US Open and temporarily derailing his Challenger Series campaign.
Seagulls’ finals hopes dashed by Marist Brothers By Jo Kennett
IT WAS a big weekend in the NRRRL with the first round of the elimination finals seeing some dreams dashed and some kept alive. In First Grade, the top two, Murwillumbah and Casino, had the weekend off but will meet up this weekend to see who goes straight to the finals. In the elimination finals last weekend, Mullumbimby played Lower Clarence and the Tweed Heads Seagulls took on Marist Brothers to progress to the semi-finals this weekend. The Giants are looking dangerous after making a late charge, and took down the Magpies, who were leading the comp early, 25-22. Unfortunately the Seagulls went
down to Marist Brothers in a tough tussle, 18-16. They were three tries apiece but it was Lismore’s Shalin Fuller, who nailed it with the boot, that made the difference with conversions. Well done boys, you’ve done the shire proud and we look forward to seeing you all back in action next year. In Reserve Grade the Bilambil Jets and Byron, at the top of the ladder, had the weekend off. The elimination finals saw Ballina Seagulls beat Casino 14-12 to advance. Tweed Heads took on Murwillumbah at Maclean in a nail-biter that saw them neck and neck coming down to the end. It was the Seagulls’ Tyler Harper who came in with the “play of the day and weekend” with a “superb-
ly placed field goal that crushed Commiserations to hearts of the opposition and the Hornets ladies secured the win,” according who had a great year. to the Seagulls scribe.

In the Women’s Rugby League (tackle), Tweed Heads played Bilambil at Maclean, with Bilambil coming out on top 24-10 to progress to the semi-finals. Well done to the Seagulls ladies on a great season and good luck to the Jets, who take on Murwillumbah in the semi-finals this weekend. The Murwillumbah ladies got a big win, 20-18, over Casino, despite Casino fighting hard to the end, to progress to the semi-finals. Well done ladies and good luck to everyone in the semi-finals next weekend.

Real Estate AGENT OF THE WEEK
By Jo Kennett OUR AGENT of the Week is William Campbell, a lifelong Tweed local who grew up on a cane farm and brings deep knowledge of the region’s rural and urban communities to his real estate career. Starting in property management with First National Murwillumbah, he managed a portfolio of more than 200 properties before moving into sales, combining property expertise with legal administration, customer service and sales experience. We caught up with William for a chat.
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO ENTER THE INDUSTRY? Property has always fascinated me. I started out as a law clerk in conveyancing, which gave me an early, practical view of how transactions come together, and where they fall apart. What I enjoyed most was coordinating the effort behind a sale. Every property transaction carries real weight for the people involved, and no two ever present quite the same obstacles. Guiding that process through to a result is genuinely rewarding, and that mix of complexity and resolution is what pulled me from conveyancing into agency work. Growing up on a fifth-generation farm in the Tweed added another layer once I moved into rural and lifestyle sales, but that

early conveyancing exposure is where the pull started.
WHAT PROPERTY TYPE ARE YOU MOST PASSIONATE ABOUT? Rural and lifestyle acreage, hands down. No two holdings are alike, so there’s no one-size-fits-all approach, every property rewards a tailored read. Having grown up on a working farm, and still living rurally, I understand not just the land but what makes a rural enterprise actually function: water access, pasture and stock capacity, shedding and infrastructure. That background also means I know the typical buyer in this space well, which helps me get both sides to an outcome they’re genuinely happy with. At the other end of the spectrum, I have a real soft spot for period homes, Federation, Edwardian, mid-century, and especially the Californian bungalow. Their charm is in the history: the architecture reflects the era it was built in, rather than just being a style stuck on a floor plan.
WHAT’S THE BIGGEST CHANGE YOU’VE SEEN IN THE MARKET RECENTLY? The big story of the last seven years is growth, values have effectively doubled, and that’s reshaped more than just price. It’s driven strong demand for dual-living setups, whether that’s multiple generations under one

roof or a secondary dwelling helping offset the mortgage. It’s also pushed buyers further afield. Remote work means the daily commute no longer dictates where people live, so more affordable, less coastal-adjacent areas are now genuinely on the table, and that’s been a direct driver of the uplift we’ve seen in lifestyle acreage specifically.
WHO’S BUYING NOW, AND WHERE ARE THEY COMING FROM? The exodus out of Sydney and Melbourne has cooled considerably. Most of our current buyers are coming from the Brisbane and Gold Coast corridor instead. Murwillumbah is well placed for this, we sit almost equidistant between the Gold Coast and Byron Bay, and within twenty-five minutes of coastal areas that have become lifestyle enclaves many buyers can no longer afford. That makes our relative affordability a genuinely compelling proposition. Buyers tend to split into two groups: families with older kids drawn by bigger, more affordable homes and established schools; and downsizers out of larger coastal properties, after a quieter pace and less upkeep, without giving up the town, the services, or the amenity around them. So if you’re looking to buy or sell without delay, where there’s a Will there’s a way – call William today!
