Resident CCTV image of thief with the car inset

The message follows a range of thefts from Casuarina spanning from Wednesday, September 11, to Saturday, September 14. The first was the theft from a vehicle at Lobelia Crescent, Casuarina, which is believed to have taken place between 6pm (September 11) and 8am (September 12) after a Hyundai X35 was parked on Laceflower Parade, Casuarina. “Unknown offender(s) have entered the vehicle by an unlocked door and removed property from the vehicle,” police said. The second was a car theft on Wednesday, September 11, between 10.30pm and 11.50pm.

Police said a 2017 White Holden Colorado Utility registration number YGS57S was stolen. The third was a break and enter at Casuarina Way, Casuarina, in which a shipping container was forced open and items were stolen. Police said the theft occurred between 5.15pm on September 13 and 6.30am on September 14. “Unknown person(s) have forced entry to a shipping container,” police said. “An amount of property including tools were stolen.” Police were also appealing for information regarding these or other crimes to please contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or the Tweed Heads Police Station on (07) 5506 9499.

Donations needed to aid Stanthorpe farmers

By Megan Albany TWEED CHARITY You Have A Friend is calling for donations to help send water to desperate farmers in Stanthorpe, who are struggling after the recent bushfires compounded by the effects of a devastating drought. Last year, You Have A Friend delivered food supplies to NSW drought-affected areas, but this year their priority is getting water to Stanthorpe farmers who, You Have A Friend founder John Lee said, are in “serious trouble”. “We’re not going to be able to help everybody, but it’s become obvious that Stanthorpe is a real problem,” Mr Lee said. “We saw on TV that they only had two months of water left so my wife Robyn and I went up there to see for ourselves and it was devastating.” Three weeks ago, Mr Lee said the town’s main water source, King Storm Dam, was flagged to run out of water in November, however since this prediction, the town has had to use their remaining water supplies to fight the fires. “When the fires came through, they had to take the water out of the only dam they had left, and the farmers are a very

hardy, resilient bunch but they are now beginning to ask for help. “One mother has four kids and a baby that’s only two weeks old and they’ve pretty well run out of water. “The kids can’t even bath and if they can’t bath or shower then I don’t know what they’re doing with their toilet water. “A tank of water will give her about two to three months of water and it only costs $300 which is really nothing.” With one third of the people in the agricultural sector of Stanthorpe now out of work, Mr Lee said the situation is dire. You Have A Friend has set up a fund to help desperate farmers and Mr Lee said a single dollar will provide 40 litres of water for a desperate family. “We are now fundraising and have already sent out two tankers of water and as we get more funds we will organise more tankers,” he said. “We’ve teamed up with a courier who can get the water out to those who need it most. “We would prefer financial donations but if people want to give donations of food, that would be great, and we’ll take that too.

“If people are donating food it’s better if they contact me first so I can tell them what we most need. “We want people to know that we are all volunteers and none of us are paid and we don’t use any money for administration costs.” Mr Lee said any amount of money was helpful and that $1 provides 40 litres for a family, $25 provides a family with 1,000 litres of water, (three to four days’ supply for a family of four) and $500 provides 20,000 litres of water which can help 20 Granite Belt families. Donations are tax deductible and can be made via the website www. youhaveafriend.com.au or at the charity’s op shop located at Machinery Drive, South Tweed Heads.

By Jonathon Howard TWEED POLICE are concerned that thieves believe Tweed Coast communities are “easy pickings” for property and vehicles following reports of persistent brazen thefts during the past 12 months. Local officers said they would like to raise awareness of the thieves targeting areas such as Kingscliff, Cabarita, Casuarina and Pottsville. Home surveillance footage released by Tweed Police show thieves jumping security fences and going to great lengths to take property or vehicles. “Unfortunately, these offenders have the idea that these suburbs make easy pickings for property and vehicle theft,” Tweed Police said. “Tweed Byron PD would like to encourage all residents to ensure their cars are locked with nothing visible inside. “That the keys are secured away from the cars inside your homes. “These opportunistic thieves are taking any opportunity to steal your property.” Police said they wanted to commend the resident who produced CCTV footage. “As can be seen, his actions by ensuring his vehicles and home were locked preventing the thieves from stealing his property,” police said.

Railway being left to moulder

The news about the Byron rail report is exciting but hearing how little the state government cares about our railway on the North Coast is always disappointing. Rural areas deserve better support. The engineering section of the Byron rail report states that many areas along the railway track are thoroughly covered in vegetation. The track is in good condition but vegetation was the biggest problem and the heavy overgrowth was degrading the formation. This shows that our railway track is being neglected and allowed to rot. The railways are a public service that exist so that ordinary people can have efficient, safe public transport. Getting rid of railways means private companies can make more money from roads. This railway is part of our community and part of its heritage, it shouldn’t be left to moulder. It’s needed by the high percentage of elderly and disabled people in this area, as well as university students who have no transport. If the state government repaired the track it could cut the massive amounts of damage to our local roads. Then the local council wouldn’t have to raise rates in order to fix them. This really is a climate emergency and rail is one of the quickest and easiest solutions to cutting transport emissions. Trains could easily carry the amount of water needed to places in extreme drought right now as stated by the Rail, Tram and Bus Union. How can we get the state government to care about this area? Beth Shelley, Booerie Creek

How historic are walls?

Regarding the story: Countdown to the relocation of two historic stone walls in the Tweed Valley Weekly on August 29. Being called historic walls, I found to be somewhat annoying.

This is firstly Bundjalung land, always is and always will be, so why do we need this wall saved? We already have a monument to the South Sea Island (SSI) peoples at Chinderah, officially marked in 1999 and a small plot of graves less than 50 meters away. In Chinderah, we have the Corowa park in memory of Robert Corowa, one of the founding members of the Australian South Sea Islanders United Council in 1975. In Tweed Heads, as part of the Council buildings, we have a room called the South Sea Islander Room, with pictures and a snapshot of words explaining the pictures. I have yet to see a Bundjalung room. The Tweed Regional Museum has a section dedicated to sugar cane farming, with SSI peoples galore and the Tweed Library has plenty of material on/about SSI peoples. SSI people were not the only ones working and being paid to make stone walls that were found in the fields. What about the Sikhs and Aboriginals and white Aussies that were all part of the paid workforce at the time? The rocks were in the Bundjalung ground and had to be dug up, for the farmer to use the land as per best practice. In 2013, the NSW Government recognised SSI as a disadvantaged ethnic group. Just how much can any government honour the spirit of the recognition of this group? SSI peoples are in the school history books, have been granted numerous monetary grants to allow the history to be printed, and filmed the 1969 Pastures of the Blue Crane. If the SSI peoples think a few rocks are important let them take a section and rebuild outside their South Sea Islander Room in Tweed Heads, or even take a 75-metre section and rebuild it at Corowa Park in Chinderah, or even in the grounds of the First Chinderah Scout Hall where the original TWSIA (Tweed South Sea Islander Association) was gathered. If these walls are so special after 150 or so years, why did they not get regular maintenance to maintain their specialness? Otherwise it is just another rock in a wall at Cudgen, of which there are many, many walls. If they should happen to unearth some old cane rail tracks/spikes or some parts of the Cudgen Sugar Mill, by all means save them. The Kingscliff TAFE across the road has its buildings labelled in English names and Aboriginal names with Aboriginal pictures. The Hospital Board should take a field study and learn from TAFE. Brian Ashworth, Tweed Heads

Growing region needs trains

The Tweed’s population is rapidly growing at a much faster rate than one could anticipate, not to mention the 6.5 million tourists (and climbing) who visit our shire annually. Most of our elderly folk are too ill to drive, fly or travel by bus to get the treatments they need. Our roads are always congested and in constant need of repair. We have put up with this for far too long now. And how does Council plan on finding a solution to these issues? They want to double the number of buses on our roads, increasing our carbon footprint and convert our railway into a gravel path so that a small amount of cycling lobbyists have somewhere to live out their hobby. If this rail trail goes ahead we are doomed. There will be no solution to the ever-growing problems we face from the standpoint of public transport. Tourists will stop coming because there will be no reliable method of transporting them around this beautiful part of the world we call home. The world’s first solar-powered train runs on our railway line and thousands of people are using it every month. Returning train services to Murwillumbah and extending it to Coolangatta is extremely necessary and within our grasp. But a small handful of special interest groups want to take that opportunity away from us - the opportunity for us and our visitors to easily travel from one destination to another without hassles. A coastal link from Brisbane to Sydney via the Gold Coast is inevitable and has the potential of being the next great railway journey of the world. The people of this region need to make their voices heard now or else we will never get what we need. We deserve better, bring back the trains. Dylan Folley, Tweed Shire

Valley of (T)weeds

Weeds, weeds and more weeds, some people have truly been accurate when Tweed Valley signs have had the “T” removed. Our high rainfall is very weed friendly and if our weedy 40-hectare landholdings were allowed a little understanding, a couple more people may take pride enough to look after their plot and enjoy the rural lifestyle they yearn for. We are being dominated by a Council that’s too bloody green. I am as green as anybody but I am sick of treating everybody else’s weeds.

Break up these uncared-for 40-hectare lots and bring more people to our town. Human effluent runoff is now very well treated and a lot safer than cow droppings in the creek and camphor laurel poisoning. Greg Church, Nobbys Creek

North Kingscliff noise concerns

I am a local Kingscliff resident and am very concerned with the traffic noise problem emanating from the Pacific Motorway from Banora Point down to the BP service station. I have previously gone through the below mentioned process with a noise monitor placed at my home for a week. After some time I got the report back but was deemed not to have a problem. Recently with all the fires about I was asleep with ear plugs to cut out the traffic noise when I was awoken by my wife to tell me the fire alarms were going off. I was completely oblivious to the situation. This worried me, as if there were a real fire in my home, could there have been a tragic result? What’s required is for all affected residents in North Kingscliff to put in a submission if you want relief from the ever-increasing noise levels. Please follow the following process: road noise mitigation falls under the jurisdiction of the New South Wales Roads and Maritime Service. Contact, in the first instance Geoff Provest, State Member for Tweed, in regards to this matter. Hopefully you may get an answer. Then also go to the following link and fill out the application. It is important that you fill it out. http://www.rms.nsw.gov.au/ about/environment/reducingnoise/noise-abatement-program. html Vic Martin, Kingscliff

Carbon benefits planet

While Peter Leith doesn’t name the pollutant that makes “our dirty habits” second only to the United States (TVW, 12 September), his “per capita pollution” suggests carbon dioxide (CO2), a colourless odourless gas that animals exhale and plants inhale and can’t live without. As it comprises four per cent of exhaled air, a hundred times the atmospheric concentration, breathing must be one of our “dirty habits”. What Mr Leith wants us to “cut down on” however, is the CO2 coming out of our smokestacks and tailpipes, but plants love this “pollution” and are growing faster than ever, greening the planet, especially in India and China, whose annual increase in output exceeds Australia’s total annual production. The reason we have high per capita emissions of this plant food is our

wealth; your carbon footprint is directly proportional to your expenditure. But if we think we can save the planet or the reef by reducing our dirty spending habits or by travelling by foot or bicycle (as I mostly do), we are deluding ourselves. The planet and its inhabitants survived the previous interglacial period, over two degrees warmer than now. The Great Barrier Reef can exist only during brief interglacial warm periods such as our present Holocene. Through most of geologic time it is above sea level and growing trees. Coral and its symbiotic algae also depend on CO2 for its food and carbonate (CO3) exoskeleton. What we need to focus on is real pollution, especially the plastic polluting our waterways and oceans. Dr D Weston, Cudgen

Your money or your life?

The silly story is told of the robber who held-up a man at pistol-point and demanded “your money or your life”, to which the victim replied “take my life I am saving my money for my old age”. A really silly story? Yes. But is it anymore silly than those of us who worry as to whether my super will see me out? In fairness to ourselves, we are not really all so silly. We are prompted to ask ourselves that unanswerable question, by the numerous people and organisations, who seek to make money for themselves from selling us their superior, superannuation products. The recent Royal Commission has revealed where their interests really lie and proved, beyond any doubt, that our best interests are not their first interests. How much super do we really need to see ourselves out? None of us will ever really know the answer to that question. It depends so much on how long we live, our state of health and other unknown and unknowable factors. Within a kilometer of where I live, there are four elderly retired people, one couple and two single people. All of them have worked hard, been frugal and saved for their old age. In later years they avoided expenses like overseas holidays to make sure that they had enough to see them out. All four of them are now terminally ill with cancer. Their super will comfortably see them out. Peter Leith, Bogangar Please note the views on the letters page are that of the letter writer and not of the Tweed Valley Weekly.

Range of motions set to be debated including Slideapalooza and climate emergency By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Councillors will tackle a range of motions during their monthly meeting today (Thursday, September 19) including a bid for Tweed Heads to host Australia’s largest travelling waterslide festival known as Slideapalooza. Council has been approached by Brisbane-based Festival Services to run the Slideapalooza Festival and create a “street slide” similar to the previous City Slider event that was held in Boundary Street, Tweed Heads in May 2015. “Festival Services are proposing to close Boundary Street for two days (plus bump in and bump out closure) to conduct the waterslide festival, which will impact the adjoining residents and traffic flow within this locality,” the motion reads. “The proposed format operates over two days with five sessions a day, including a mammoth slip ‘n’ slide up to 350m long, kids zone slides and festival area with music, food, drinks and merchandise. “The slides are designed for sloping town streets and the festival layout is adaptable to suit the surrounding streets and parks.” Councillors have been supplied with two options: that Council requests further documentation and the application be determined on its merits, or to not support the event “due to the inconvenience to residents and road users”.

Climate emergency declaration

Mayor Katie Milne is asking councillors for their support in declaring a climate emergency.

The Mayor’s motion states that 45 other local councils have already declared a climate emergency that requires “urgent action by all levels of government, including by local councils”. If the motion gets up, the Mayor will write to the NSW State and Federal Governments and local MPs, requesting them to declare a climate emergency and prioritise actions to address the emergency, as well as encouraging other local councils to declare a climate emergency. The motion also calls for Council to support the Schools Strike for Climate this Friday, September 20, and allow Council staff to attend “where practical”.

Deputy Mayor up for vote

Councillors will vote on who will be Deputy Mayor for the final year of the current councillors’ four-year term. Mayor Milne has thrown her support behind current Deputy Mayor Chris Cherry, who will be recontesting the role. “Whilst all the contenders have their different merits, Cr Cherry has been an outstanding advocate for the community as Deputy Mayor,” Mayor Milne said. “She is meticulous on details, fair and compassionate for all sides of politics, extremely hardworking and highly intelligent.”

Short-term rentals

Council will not apply to put a cap on the number of permissible days for a short-ter m rental accommodation (STRA) listed on websites such as Airbnb and Stayz due to the “virtually impossible

c o m p l i a n c e a n d re s o u rc i n g implications on Council”. The State Government’s policy allows for STRA up to 180 days in metropolitan Sydney and between 180 to 365 days in regional NSW, where councils can apply for a reduction. C o u n c i l l o r s h a d vo t e d i n November, 2018, to not reduce the number of permissible days and will be asked to vote on a submission to the State Government. The submission requests clarity around the management of noise and the greater involvement of councils in the monitoring of STRA.

Men’s Shed licence

Councillors will discuss and vote on whether to approve a licence to the Pottsville and District Men’s Shed Inc at the Black Rocks Sports Field. Council publicly notified and exhibited the proposed Licence from June 4 until July 23 and received 777 submissions from 849 signatories in response a total of 765 of the 777 submissions received were in support of the proposed licence, and 12 submissions were opposed to the proposed licence. In conclusion, Council said it had considered the submissions received from the public, and believes that the “Licence should be granted for the following reasons: There was overwhelming public support in favour of granting the Licence (i.e. 837 signatories in support, versus 12 signatories against); The Men’s Shed provides a valuable community service that assists the physical and mental health and wellbeing of a wide range of community members; and Council is satisfied that the

Example image of Slideapalooza Festival which wants to come back to Tweed

grant of the Licence is consistent with all applicable environmental legislation.” Councillors have two options on which to vote including Council applies to the Minister for consent to grant the Licence, or, Council does not apply to the Minister, and does not grant the licence.

George Beattie Park naming

Councillors have been asked to vote on whether to name the park located at Bosun Boulevard, Oxley Cove, to George Beattie Park. Council put the call out for comments after their June 2019 meeting and recieved one submission with 85 signatures in support of naming the park after George Beattie. George operated a scenic floatplane business from the Tweed River for 30 years and passed away on March 29, 2019, after a long illness. The submission also requested the park sign include an image of a seaplane in acknowledgment of George’s history of flying a ‘float plane’ in the area,” Council said. Councillors will vote on whether to adopt the name or not.

Tiny homes funding

Cr James Owen has put forward a motion requesting funding assistance from the State Government to deliver the Wardrop Valley Small Smart Sustainable Housing Project, a tiny home village proposal put forward by Cr Ron Cooper. Cr Owen’s motion states there is “limited resourcing of the Council to deliver a project of this magnitude” and is asking for funding assistance for the first stage of the project, which Cr Owen said “may cost in excess $7 million, for the initial 50 dwellings”. “The concept of a sustainable and affordable housing development that better meets the needs of those who can least afford adequate housing is nonetheless a worthwhile pursuit of the Council, providing there is sufficient funding assistance from the NSW State Government,” Cr Owen’s motion reads. “Given that social and affordable housing is the responsibility of the State and Commonwealth with the primary responsibility to NSW, it is perfectly reasonable for Council to seek that funding support in advance of committing further and additional resources of its own into this project.”

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Dust contamination concerns at hospital site unfounded says Health Infrastructure HEALTH INFRASTRUCTURE has sought to ease community concerns that enabling works at the Tweed Valley Hospital site at Cudgen are putting potentially deadly contaminants in the air across the Tweed Coast. Kingscliff resident Jeremy Cornford wrote to The Weekly expressing his concern that a combination of high winds and the movement of trucks on the site has the potential to “expose residents to chemicals such as arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead and other metals”. Mr Cornford also pointed out that Tweed Shire Council had advised Health Infrastructure late last year that chemicals were potentially present in the soil. “In the period from September 9 to September 11, wind speeds in Kingscliff averaged between 30km per hour and 40km per hour with gusts from 38 to 59km per hour,” Mr Cornford said. “It was possible to see dust from the excavators’ loading trucks blowing out over the littoral rainforest to the northeast and the adjoining housing estate.” Mr Cornford said his concerns had been relayed to Council who contacted the Department of Planning and were advised that excavation and loading “should not have been carried out in such conditions” and that “adverse weather restrictions were now in place for the site”. Meanwhile, Health Infrastructure told The Weekly that it imposes “strict requirements” for the management

and monitoring of dust levels on its construction sites and the “testing, containment and safe removal of any contaminated materials”. “A h e a d o f t h e r e m e d i a t i o n works, the early works contractor, Lendlease Building, developed a detailed Remediation Action Plan and Construction Environmental Management Plan in line with NSW legislation and the State Significant Development Conditions of Consent,” a spokesperson for Health Infrastructure said. “These plans govern the management and removal of contaminated material, and suppression of dust. “Extensive testing of the project site identified a small area of contaminated land around the pre-existing farm buildings. “This area has been fenced off and continuous air monitoring has been installed. “On Tuesday, September 10, this isolated area was remediated by a specialist contractor, under the supervision of Lendlease. “Independent air monitoring was undertaken throughout this process, which was overseen by an independent auditor. “No instances of any airborne contaminated material were recorded. “A door-knock and community notice letterbox drop were carried out in the immediate vicinity of the site the week before the remediation works began.” But Mr Cornford said he and other residents of the Monarch Drive, Kingfisher Circuit and Bellbird Drive

Artist’s impression of the Tweed Valley Hospital

precinct, which are directly in line with last Tuesday’s wind conditions, received “no such notification and no doorknock”. The Health Infrastructure spokesperson told The Weekly that a community notice was also published on the project website. “The continuous air monitoring of the areas outside of the contaminated area where bulk earthworks have been undertaken show that dust levels are well within the specified limits,” the Health Infrastructure spokesperson said. “Any mud picked up by vehicles after leaving the loading area is cleaned up regularly to avoid any build up on external roads and footpaths that could create slippery conditions.” Mr Cornford labelled this reply as “disingenuous”, as the majority of Kingscliff residents did not have the hospital project website on their daily “must-see” on-line browsing list. “The only road clean-up I or any of my colleagues have seen was two workmen with garden leaf blowers blowing dust from the footpath back onto the verge,” he said.

When Vincent Selleck founded 888 Solar Tek, he made sure everything we say and do helps our customers, treating them with respect and ensuring they save the most they can on power costs. He also insisted we educate people so they could make informed choices and not be vulnerable to unethical sales practices. Today Vincent and his son, Azhlenn ensure that these ethical tenants are reflected throughout our business, ensuring that everyone receives the quality of service they deserve.

3 Ways We Help Our Community and Environment

1. Solar Power for Everyone - Residential Grid Connect Solar. We enrich ourselves by generating our own power and pushing back against the Coal and Gas fired Network with clean solar power. If you want to help yourself and our native wildlife, there is no better investment than solar power on your home and more trees for koalas in your paddock. 2. Power Independence - Off Grid Solar. New homes, sheds and cabins are great places to make a stand for clean energy. Use no grid. Burn no coal. Generate all the power you need onsite and store it in batteries. Usually more affordable than connecting to poles and wires in the country and you are never exposed to runaway power prices again.

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Council will begin its budget development and are anticipating a rise of 2.5 per cent for the 2020 to 2021 financial year. As part of its budget review, Council will consider whether to increase rates by 2.6 per cent for the 2020/21 financial year under the rate peg announced by the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) recently. Council’s Finance, Revenue and Information Technology Executive Manager, Michael Chorlton, said the budget was part of the suite of Draft Integrated Planning and Reporting documents. “The documents will likely go to Council in April for public exhibition in May and final adoption by Council in June after consideration of any responses,” Mr Chorlton said. “The IPART rate peg is based on the Local Government Cost Index which moves in line with CPI – this reflects the increase operating costs to Council and is therefore needed to maintain the status quo in our purchasing power. “The Long-Term Financial Plan estimates a Rate Peg increase of 2.5 per cent for 2020/21. “Council has the discretion to amend rates from zero per cent up to the 2.6 per cent and anything in between without the need for a Special Rate Variation – however Council has at least since 1992 always applied the Rate peg in full.” IPART Chair, Dr Paul Paterson, said the main drivers of the increase for next year included higher employee costs, and rising construction costs as well as some of the increases being offset by falling telecommunications, IT and energy costs. The rate peg for 2020-21 is similar to the rate peg in recent years, which is 2.7 per cent currently and was 2.3 per cent last financial year. “Our decision to release it three months earlier than in previous years, enables councils to better plan both their revenue and expenditure over the year ahead,” Dr Paterson said. The rate peg is set by IPART each year by measuring changes in the Local Government Cost Index (LGCI), which includes changes in 26 cost components to establish the average costs faced by councils. Councils will be invited to participate in updating the LGCI in November 2019. IPART said it has recognised that councils are facing cost pressures from increases in the Emergency Services Levy, which is one of the cost components in the index.

Tweed River health slowly improving World Rivers Day is coming up next Sunday, making this an ideal time to release the results of the Tweed River’s annual health check. The Tweed River Report outlines the health of the Tweed River from high in the caldera down to the river mouth at Tweed Heads. Overall, the news is good. There has been no significant change in water quality between the 2018 and 2019 monitoring programs, with the exception of the Rous River, where the grade improved from ‘D’ to ‘C’.

Senior Program Leader Waterways, Tom Alletson, said the goal was to see the water quality in the Tweed River improve over time. “There’s a lot of work to do to improve the quality of the river,” Mr Alletson said. “While it’s not great to see a score of ‘D’ for the Cobaki and Terranora tributaries, an ‘A’ for the Cobaki and Terranora Broadwaters and the Lower Tweed Estuary is reassuring.” To read the full Tweed River Report 2019, visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/NaturalEnvironment

Did you know the Tweed has one of the highest rates of dementia in NSW? This is mostly due to the number of people over the age of 65 in this area. Across Australia, 70 per cent of people with dementia are living in the community. To support Dementia Action Week this week, Council’s management team completed the ‘Become a Dementia Friend’ training to learn about what it’s like to live with dementia and what a ‘dementia friendly community’ is. Staff were also invited to attend the training. To provide safe spaces for people in the community with dementia, a number of organisations and businesses across the Tweed have come on board as ‘dementia friendly sites’. Find out more at www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/OlderPeople or complete the ‘Become a Dementia Friend’ online training at www.dementiafriendly.org.au The Tweed Regional Gallery, Museum and libraries are dementia friendly. Here's what they offer: • The Tweed Heads Library will host a ‘Memories on the Move’ session for people with dementia and their carers this Thursday, 19 September, at 11am. • Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre encourages people living with dementia and their carers to visit the Gallery and connect through a shared activity. A free dementia awareness program is available that uses art and music to stimulate memories and conversation. Pick up your MemoryScape selfguided tour sheet at the Gallery. • The Tweed Regional Museum is developing a new program for people with dementia, in consultation with members of the community living with the condition. The program will be object based, and will be available later this year.

Doing the wrong bin is such a waste

Council’s Resource Recovery Education Officer Tarra Martel wants to encourage residents to put the right things in the right bin.

Council’s bin inspection team is lifting the lid on unwanted items in the Tweed’s bins to reduce contamination rates and cut down on unnecessary processing costs. Sorting out contamination in the Tweed’s green bins alone is costing $200,000 a year – that’s ratepayers’ money that could be better spent elsewhere. Council’s Resource Recovery Education Officer Tarra Martel said plastic bags in both the green and yellow bins was the biggest issue. “Plastic bags cause sorting machinery to break down and add extra costs to the bin as they need to be pulled out by hand, which ends up being paid for by residents,” Ms Martel said. There is still a lot of confusion about what bags can be used in the green bin. The best solution is to stop using bags altogether. Just rinse your kitchen caddy out after you empty it into your green bin; use newspaper to line your bin; or, the brightly coloured green compostable bags Compostable displaying the Australian Standard AS 4736. AS 4736 To check you are using the right bag or to confirm what goes in each bin, email waste@tweed.nsw.gov.au or visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/Waste/RedYellowAndGreenBins

Have your say on the future of our community facilities Good time to go solar Community and cultural buildings play a critical role in providing spaces for people to get together and improve the health and wellbeing of all members of our community.

Community Facilities Plan 2019–2036

These facilities are the heart of a community – places where people of all ages, cultural backgrounds and abilities connect, share knowledge and interests and create a sense of belonging and solidarity in the community. Council has prepared a new draft Community Facilities Plan 2019–2036 to provide direction about where and when new and expanded community and cultural facilities may be delivered in the Tweed Shire over the next 20 years. The draft plan considers community and cultural buildings, for example, libraries, community centres and halls, museums and art galleries. Council welcomes community feedback on the draft plan until 15 October 2019. To read the draft plan, related resources and make a submission online, please visit Your Say Tweed at www.yoursaytweed.com.au/CommunityFacilitiesPlan

Health report shows Tweed Hospital going strong By Jonathon Howard MORE THAN 52,000 people presented to Northern NSW Local Health District Emergency Departments (ED) in the April to June quarter with The Tweed Hospital producing some positive results, according to the latest health figures from the Bureau of Health Information. The April-June quarter saw a 7.3 per cent increase in emergency department presentations across the district, up by 3,576 people on the same quarter last year, as well as an 8.3 per cent increase in the number of ambulance arrivals. The Tweed Hospital saw an increase of 4.9 per cent. NNSWLHD Director of Clinical Operations, Lynne Weir, said despite the “significant increase” in activity, emergency treatment performance remained strong. “We’re seeing near record activity in our emergency departments, yet our hospitals are still performing at very high levels when it comes to providing patients with quality and timely care,” she said. “The median time for patients leaving our EDs this quarter was just under two hours, well below the state average of two hours and 53 minutes.” Ms Weir said despite rising demand, the average length of stay in hospital remained stable at 2.5 days. “Thanks to the excellent, efficient care provided by our staff, patients are being discharged back to their own homes or into community care to continue their recovery where they’re most comfortable,” she said.

The Tweed Hospital staﬀ have been working hard to meet the demands of the community

Despite the continuing high activity, the number of elective surgeries performed remained stable, according to the report. “I am proud to say that 100 per cent of urgent elective surgery procedures were performed on time, as were 92 per cent of semi-urgent procedures,” Ms Weir said. “However, we also recognise elective surgery is affected by our high activity in the system and we’re working with clinicians and management to improve waiting times.” NNSWLHD said it remains committed to reducing and where possible, eliminating seclusion and restraint, and providing the best possible mental health care and treatment in the least restrictive environment. Seclusion and restraint are used to maintain safety for a patient, staff or others, after less restrictive alternatives have been trialled or considered. Both Tweed and Lismore Mental Health Units were below the performance indicator for seclusion rates in the AprilJune quarter.

The state based KPI for rate of seclusion in 2018-19 is less than 5.1 per 1,000 bed days. “I’d like to acknowledge the significant work our teams have been doing to reduce seclusion rates for patients in their care, which is leading to better experiences for our patients,” Ms Weir said. The Tweed Hospital recorded a seclusion rate of 4.6 per 1,000 bed days, and a reduction of 29 minutes in the average duration of seclusion events, down to two hours 42 minutes. The 2019-20 budget for Northern NSW Local Health District is over $875 million, this is an increase of more than $37 million on the 2018-19 budget. Between mid-2012 and mid-2019 the Northern NSW Local Health District increased its workforce by an additional 843 full time equivalent staff - an increase of 22.4 per cent including 115 more doctors, 280 more nurses and midwives, and 53 more allied health staff.

Flying fox warning

TWEED RESIDENTS are being reminded to avoid handling or touching injured or dead flying foxes or microbats due the risk of contracting deadly viruses. In the last month, ten people have been bitten or scratched after handling flying foxes or microbats across the Mid North Coast and Northern NSW Local Health Districts, according to the Public Health Unit. Assistant Director of the North Coast Public Health Unit, Greg Bell, said members of the community should not handle flying foxes or microbats unless they have been trained, vaccinated against rabies and use proper protective equipment. “If you find an injured or distressed flying fox or bat, do not attempt to handle it yourself, call your local wildlife rescue service,” Mr Bell said. “Australian bat lyssavirus (ABLV), while very rare, is a serious infection similar to rabies, that has been found in flying foxes and microbats, including on the North Coast. “If you are bitten or scratched by a flying fox or bat, immediately wash the wound gently but thoroughly with soap and water, apply an antiseptic such as povidoneiodine, and consult a doctor as soon as possible to assess the need for further treatment.” NSW Health provides post-exposure rabies vaccinations for people in NSW who have been bitten or scratched by bats. This is in addition to routine management of the wound, with proper cleaning reducing the risk of infection. “In the event of an extreme heat stress or starvation event affecting bat populations, people should follow the directions given by wildlife rescue coordinators,” Mr Bell said. Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers (TVWC) are reporting a “huge” increase in the number of flying foxes coming into their care in the past few weeks. “The current dry weather conditions have left minimal food sources for wildlife, especially our nectar eating friends,” a statement from TVWC said. “We are seeing large numbers coming in dehydrated and emaciated, this is likely to continue until we get a good downpour of rain. “Whilst there are still usual rescues coming through such as entanglement on barbed wire, vehicle strikes and dog attacks, majority of our phone calls have been reports of bats hanging low to, or on the ground, starving to death.” If you spot a flying fox in distress, hanging in unusual places or low to the ground please call the TVWC 24/7 hotline immediately on (02) 6672 4789.

Garage trail in support of RFS By Megan Albany WITH RESOURCES already stretched and more equipment having been damaged during recent firefighting, the Kunghur Rural Fire Service Brigade has welcomed the support of the local community who has rallied behind them to organise a fundraiser. The Kunghur Community Garage Trail will take place on Saturday, October 12, in Ted Brown Close, as well as throughout the Kunghur community. Food and goods stalls will be held in the Close as well as at individual houses throughout Kunghur. Households with heavier items such as furniture or building supplies who would like to hold a garage sale on the same day can register to be included on the official garage trail map. Stalls or registration on the trail map cost $20 with funds going directly to the Kunghur RFS. Local musicians will also be performing at various locations throughout the trail. Kunghur Fire Captain Ron Duckworth said the fund raising efforts were very much

appreciated and that any funds raised would be put to good use. “While a lot of the brigade equipment is supplied by the RFS, some equipment such as our CB radios, for example, we have to purchase ourselves and they only have a reasonably short lifespan because of the conditions they work under. “They help us to keep in communication with each other, so for safety reasons we don’t want faulty equipment as the members of our team are all relying on that for their safety. “At the moment we also have a bundle of torches that are not working anymore and they need to be replaced, as the more crews you have, the more equipment you need to make sure you are maintaining. “Having something like this garage trail is really important as with Kunghur out where it is, we have no hotels or clubs where we can run raffles, so we are really relying on events like this and the community to support us.” To register for the Kunghur Garage Sale/ Trail or for more information call Karen on (02) 6679 7096.

CWA donates to Wollumbin Family Support MEMBERS OF the Country Women’s Association (CWA) Murwillumbah Evening Branch have recently donated a cheque for $500 on Wednesday, September 11, to Wollumbin Family Support Incorporated (WFS). CWA Murwillumbah Evening Branch President, Kathie Dwyer (pictured above), handed over the cheque to President Ilze Jaunberzins and Treasurer Diane Ashmore of Wollumbin Family Support.

Ms Jaunberzins said the money would be spent supporting people recovering from family and domestic violence. Ms Jaunberzins spoke about Wollumbin Family Support’s program Love Bites, which is delivered to local high schools and aims to prevent family and domestic violence. CWA Members Kathie Dwyer and Marie Rogers both expressed their gratitude for the donation and how pleased they were to be helping another local organisation which provides a vital service to the wider community.

SEVEN TWEED Shire-based organisations have secured funding from Gold Coast Airport’s Community Benefit Fund. A total of 30 community groups from the Tweed and Gold Coast will receive around $1,000 towards a specific initiative, in areas including health and wellbeing, community safety, education, environment and sustainability, arts and culture and indigenous projects. The seven Tweed Shire organisations are the Murwillumbah Festival of Performing Arts, Tweed Dragons, Kingscliff Tennis Club, Tennis Terranora, Friends Of The Pound, Kingscliff Mini School Community Preschool and Australian Air League Coolangatta Tweed Squadron. The groups were selected after a record number of submissions were received for this year’s annual Community Benefit Fund, run by Gold Coast Airport’s parent company Queensland Airports Limited (QAL). Gold Coast Airport Chief Operating Officer Marion Charlton said it was a privilege for the company to support such worthy grassroots initiatives. “The fund is an important vehicle for us to support our local community,” she said. “This year we received a record number of applications, with an impressive array of initiatives put forward. We look forward to working with our grant recipients and seeing their projects come to life.” One of the successful organisations is Story Dogs, a local charity which helps children

learn to read through the use of calm, gentle dogs. Story Dogs co-founder and managing director Janine Sigley said the group, established in Murwillumbah 10 years ago, was not government funded and relied on funding from businesses and the community. “Financial support covers all the necessary expenses to put dog teams into schools, year after year,” she said. “This year we reached a milestone, with 500 dog teams working across the country, helping 2500 kids each week learn to read. There is huge demand from schools and we are always after more dog teams, so this funding is important for us.” The funding will go to the team which supports Year 2 children at Mudgeeraba State Primary School, where Sue Stock and her seven-year-old Labrador, Zoe, visit each week under the program. Since the Community Benefit Fund started in 2016, QAL has supported more than 200 organisations across the Gold Coast, Northern NSW, Townsville, Longreach and Mount Isa. A new streamlined application process resulted in a record number of submissions in 2019, increasing the impact and reach of the fund. The fund, together with the QAL corporate sponsorship program, supports more than 80 local community, business, environmental and tourism initiatives and events across Queensland and NSW each year. The fund will reopen in early 2020 through the Gold Coast Airport and QAL websites.

Seven Tweed groups receive airport grants

Community Project winners announced MEMBER FOR Tweed Geoff Provest has recently announced the winners of the My Community Project with applicants now able to bring their ideas to life with a share of $256,408. The Tweed will benefit from two projects put forward and voted on by the local community, which will now be funded by the NSW Government’s My Community Project program. The successful Tweed projects include the Terranora Public School P&C which will receive $150,000 to develop the Terranora Nature Space, whic is a natural playground for children and a place to connect with nature and take time out to explore and imagine. Tweed Shire Council is the second recipient and will receive $106,408 to establish a new kids outdoor gym and park for everyone to be located at the Jack Chard Park, Tweed Heads. Mr Provest thanked all applicants and sponsors for taking the time and effort to develop their ideas and promote their projects along with the members of the community who voted. “My Community Project captured the imagination of the Tweed community with

people putting a lot of work into their ideas and it was great to see people get behind the projects that matter to them,” Mr Provest said. “These projects came from the community and were voted on by the community and I now look forward to seeing applicants and sponsors getting on with the job of rolling out these projects and the benefits they will provide to the local community.” More than $24 million was made available, spread across the entire state, for projects valued between $20,000 and $200,000 that would make communities more liveable, cultural, accessible, safe, revitalised or healthy. “I congratulate the successful project applicants and urge those projects that were unsuccessful to see if they could be eligible to apply for other NSW Government funding from programs such as Community Building Partnerships, which is now open, “Mr Provest said. “My Community Project was made possible by the NSW Generations Fund, a sovereign wealth fund that helps maintain debt at sustainable levels, while sharing the benefits of its returns with local communities.” For further information visit www.nsw.gov. au/mycommunityproject.

Burringbar to host special WWI commemoration By Jonathon Howard BURRINGBAR RSL Sub-Branch in conjunction with the Burringbar C o m m u n i t y A s s o c i at i o n a r e encouraging the community to join in commemorating the anniversary of the centenary of the town’s Peace Celebration following World War I (1914-1918). The event will take place at Burringbar Memorial Reserve and Masterson Park on Sunday, September 22, from midday. It was close to the same date in 1919 that Burringbar and district communities came together at the Burringbar Memorial Reserve and Masterson Park grounds, to remember more than 30 lads who did not return from WWI and to celebrate the advent of peace following four years of horrific war. Burringbar RSL Sub-Branch President Phil Connor said he wanted to encourage the community to join in the special day to remember those who fell on foreign soil. “To mark the occasion there will be the laying of wreaths and floral tributes at 12 noon at the Memorial Rock at the western end of Burringbar Memorial Reserve & Masterson Park - this being the original location of the Burringbar and District Honor Roll, unveiled during the Peace Day Celebrations on the 20th of September, 1919,” Mr Connor said. “A community picnic will also occur where everyone is welcome to bring their own lunches and games, as they did a century ago,” President of the Burringbar Community Association, Philip Taylor, said. Mr Connor said the Peace Celebration of September 20, 1919, was the first opportunity to unveil the WWI Burringbar District Honour Roll that cost 2,000 pounds and was paid for through donations from the community.

Gemario Cotteli, Phil Connor, Eva Heath, Jo Fisher and Bernard Fisher. Inset is the oﬃcial opening of the Peace Celebrations and unveiling of the Honor Roll on September 20, 1919

The Tweed Daily News at the time reported large crowds in attendance and a Peace March began proceedings from the Burringbar Hall to the Reserve. “This march included around 100 ex-servicemen, accompanied by the Burringbar Brass Band and followed by community groups and members,” it was reported. “The community then moved to enjoy delicious picnic hampers and an afternoon of games and competitions where all children received cash prizes.” The event, on Sunday, will encourage residents to come together to mark this occasion by bringing a floral tribute to lay at the rock and a picnic lunch to remember those who sacrificed so much a century ago and to enjoy the reserves facilities and history from 12pm. The Burringbar Community Association would also like to encourage anyone who has any wartime

memorabilia from any local service personnel who enlisted from Burringbar and served in any conflict to make contact this week. The association is curating a permanent commemorative photographic display in the Burringbar Memorial Reserve and Masterson Park, courtesy of a grant from the Department of Veterans' Affairs and would be honoured to receive any items from local descendants that can be photographed and returned. “The purpose of the pictorial display is to 'Salute Their Service',” Burringbar Community Association Secretary, Eva Heath, said. If you would like to find out more regarding memorabilia, please phone Joanne Fisher on 0438 952 263. For any questions regarding the wreath laying and flora tributes please phone Phil Connor on 0418 408 786.

RAINE & HORNE Ocean Shores/Brunswick Heads Property Manager Elizabeth Hickey was crowned last week in Sydney as the real estate industry’s rising star for 2019. The award ceremony took place at The Star Sydney on Saturday, September 14, and Ms Hickey, who joined the real estate industry in 2017, won her gong as part of the coveted annual REB Awards. REB is a leading trade publication supporting the real estate industry. Raine & Horne Ocean Shores/Brunswick Heads Principal Julie-Ann Manahan said Ms Hickey’s win was well-deserved. “As an experienced property investor, Elizabeth understands property investment from the perspective of her clients,’ she said. “Whether she’s dealing with a landlord or a tenant, Elizabeth is always committed to delivering outstanding customer service and addressing your concerns. “She has established a solid reputation as an honest, hardworking, and very reliable property manager.” Ms Hickey said she is excited by the national industry recognition, and what it means for her landlords. “I’m on a mission to elevate the level of service, professionalism, and accountability delivered by real estate agents, particularly property managers, throughout the industry,” she said. “As a landlord, I know the old way of thinking for some property investors was: ‘If I don’t hear from my property manager, it’s all good'. “Some investors would go months, perhaps years, without speaking to their property manager. “This approach is not good enough if we want to build the professional reputation of our industry.” To find out more about Raine & Horne Ocean Shores/ Brunswick Heads phone: (02) 6680 5000.

Mother determined to prevent other young drivers dying on the roads

By Megan Albany MELISSA MCGUINNESS is a passionate advocate for road safety, who knows all too well the consequences of reckless driving. Her own son Jordan HayesMcGuinness died in an accident in 2012 and in her program, You Choose - Youth Road Safety, she encourages youth to own their choices and the often-tragic outcomes that result from poor driving choices. Nearly seven years ago, on December 8, at only 18 years of age, Jordan lost his life in a carcrash on the M1 motorway, when his car left the road and collided with a stationary vehicle killing five young people aged between 16 and 24. Her son, a P-plater, had both alcohol and cannabis in his system. “In 2017, I began making presentations at high schools, outlining Jordan’s story and the horrific, unspeakable impacts his choices have made on so many lives,” Mrs McGuinness said. Mrs McGuinness said the program aims to empower the whole community to facilitate a social movement to change driving behaviours. “Reckless driving habits are no more a ‘necessary’ part of being a young adult than smoking is, it’s time to end that myth,” she said. “Driving behaviours are a choice. “The attitude of some adults that ‘we’ve all done it’ is simply not good

enough’. “It’s a cop out that’s facilitating the dangerous fallacy that dangerous driving habits are a ‘part of growing up’. “Lethal consequences are not ‘bad luck’, they are a choice.” Mrs McGuinness is blunt about what her own son’s poor driving choice has meant not only for her own family but for the victims impacted by his decision to drive under the influence. “I know Jordan did the wrong thing,” Mrs McGuinness said. “He was an enormously good young man who made a terrible choice one night,” she said. “I wish it wasn’t my story, but it is my story. “One poor choice from a really good kid can ruin so many families so quickly.” Her hard-hitting program pulls no punches when it comes to giving students the facts that could well save their lives. “I take them on a journey through my own grief and I show them a video of Jordan on his last day of school, so he becomes a very relatable figure,” she said. “I ask them to imagine that it’s not me standing up there talking to them but to imagine it’s their mum and that she is talking about them. “I show them the news clip from the night of the accident and when they see that they get a real shock, as up until then they weren’t expecting that I was the perpetrator’s mother

or that the accident would be so horrific. “I talk about what it was like to have the police turn up on my doorstep and what it was like to go to sleep knowing my son was dead and in a morgue, and what it was like to go to his funeral. “By this stage I start to see all of them, the boys as well as the girls, dabbing away the tears as they are feeling what it might be like for their own mother. “Then I show them a photo of me when I was grieving and I tell them, ‘this is what your mother, father, brothers and sisters will look like for days, weeks and years to come if something happens to you,’ and I say, ‘that my friends is why parents nag’. “I tell them if they break the law behind the wheel of the car and someone dies, whether that’s through speeding, tailgating, texting, drugs or alcohol that they are going to prison. “In fact, had Jordan survived, he would have been justifiably and deservedly been charged and would likely have spent up to 20 years in jail.” Mrs McGuinness said she is very aware that young people in her audience may already be driving recklessly. “It is a statistical certainty that any young person sitting in an auditorium experiencing this presentation is within a couple of metres of someone who habitually, knowingly, drives dangerously,” she

AUTOMOTIVE SUSPENSION & EXHAUST

Melissa McGuinness is determined to help young drivers on the road

said. “If it’s not them, it’s someone they know. “If it’s them, they can choose to stop. “If it’s the person they know, they can choose to stop facilitating their behaviour. “I want to see a social justice movement around Australia that has teens themselves, asserting that reckless driving choices are unacceptable. “ Yo u n g p e o p l e c a n m ov e mountains when they want to.

“Just look at the youth passion behind climate change. “Imagine directing that kind of emotion at making choices that save their lives and their friend’s lives on the road? “Teens calling teens out on poor choices will do a heck of a lot more than parents nagging.” If you are interested in having Mrs McGuinness talk at your high school, please contact your Senior School adviser and have them contact mmcg. rsa@gmail.com

Not when your tank is empty. 3. Avoid hard acceleration and braking. Flow with the traffic. Smooth driving can reduce fuel consumption by up to 30 per cent. 3. Watch your speed. Keep in the left lane if travelling below the limit. 4. Lighten the load. Take off roof-racks and bull bars if they’re not needed. Remove golf clubs or tools if you’re not using them, lighter is better. 5. Tyre pressure. Keep pressure towards the top of the manufacturer’s recommended range. Under-inflated tyres respond poorly to steering and do not hold well on the road. 6. Have your wheel alignment checked. An improper alignment will see your tyres drag across the bitumen rather than rolling freely which results in lower fuel economy. 7. Open the windows. When the weather is fine, switch off the air-conditioning. This can reduce fuel consumption by up to 10 per cent in traffic. 8. Shop smart. Take advantage of the range of petrol offers with companies. 9. Service your car regularly. Blocked air filters can increase fuel consumption significantly.

Speed limit reduced to 80 at Tumbulgum

By Jonathon Howard ROADS AND Maritime Services (RMS) have this week authorised a reduction in the speed limit on Tweed Valley Way between the two exits to the village of Tumbulgum, from 100km per hour to 80km per hour. The speed reduction follows the alleged hit and run death of motorcyclist Scott Rose by motorist Graham Belcher on Monday, September 2. The death prompted widespread calls for improvements to the Tweed Valley Way intersections at Tumbulgum including reducing the speed limit and even calls for a roundabout. Tweed Shire Council installed the new 80km per hour signs and pavement markings

along the two-kilometre section on Tuesday, September 17. Electronic message boards were placed ahead of the reduced speed section on both approaches to alert motorists of the changes. Meanwhile, Council is continuing to work with RMS on further initiatives to improve safety on Tweed Valley Way. Council also has a current application for funding to improve the northern intersection of Tweed Valley Way and Riverside Drive under the Federal Government’s Safer Roads Program and will continue to pursue other funding opportunities when available. YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you think it was a good move to reduce the speed limit at Tumbulgum from 100km/hr to 80km/hr? Send your thoughts and letters to editor@ theweekly.net.au

TWEED SHIRE motorists caught up in the global diesel emissions issue, involving around 100,000 Volkswagen, Audi and Skoda EA189 diesel vehicles, will be able to access compensation after the global automotive giant agreed to a multi-million-dollar settlement of its class action with Maurice Blackburn Lawyers. The agreement in principle will see a minimum of $87 million available to affected Australian motorists, with that number able to rise to as much as $127 million depending on the final size of the claimant group. In addition, the defendants will also pay the plaintiffs’ legal costs once they are determined by the Court. The case, which has been on foot since 2015, is one of several international actions seeking to hold the company accountable for the allegations that its EA189 cars had

been fitted with devices designed to pass emissions testing in a laboratory. The settlement agreement must be approved by the Court before any payments can be made to affected drivers. The settlement comes without admission of liability from the defendants and importantly will also resolve the overlapping class action that was being heard at the same time. Principal Lawyer at Maurice Blackburn, Julian Schimmel, said it was a significant victory for motorists who for years had been trying to pin down the carmaker to get some accountability in Australia. “This is an important step in providing a measure of justice and redress to the thousands of Australian motorists who claim they were financially impacted by the diesel emissions issue,” Mr Schimmel said.

Aaron Richadson has created an amazing new mural at Greenhills Caravan Park that's well worth a look

Street artist reveals stunning new mural By Jonathon Howard PASSIONATE ARTIST Aaron Richardson, 33, has created a stunning new mural at the Greenhills Caravan Park, South Murwillumbah, that’s receiving rave reviews from visitors and locals. Mr Richardson has spent the past seven weeks pouring his heart and soul into the spray-art mural, which is a depiction of the Tweed Valley’s beautiful flora and fauna. The nine-metre-long mural took dozens of spray cans and paint pens to complete and includes native birdlife, Wollumbin Mount Warning and the Tweed River in Mr Richardson’s unique style. Mr Richardson moved to the Tweed Shire from Ballarat and is originally from Townsville.

“I’ve been doing a lot of travelling around Australia working on artworks as I go,” he said. “Creating murals such as these is a real passion of mine and something I’m hoping to do for others across the Northern Rivers.” Mr Richardson has had a range of success as a street artist including at the South Australian Art Festival and created several murals. He’s now hoping his latest work will catch the eye of other local business owners and community groups to utilise his unique and creative skills. “I’d really like to do more murals and my hope is to someday work on apparel and other merchandise,” he said. Mr Richardson said he was inspired by other artists such as Murwillumbahbased artist Tony Lawrence, who also

owns the Pharside Skate Shop on Queen Street. “Tony is world renowned and it was great to meet someone like that in Murwillumbah,” Mr Richardson said. “I’m hoping to pick up some more work locally including more murals and any other ideas locals might have.” Greenhills Lodge owner and operator Graeme Bolton said he was delighted with the results. “I think it’s a great new addition to the park,” he said. “We’ve already received some great feedback from visitors and it’s a great new piece of artwork for the park’s amenities block.” To find out more about the mural or Greenhills Caravan Park please phone (02) 6672 2035 or visit 488 Tweed Valley Way, South Murwillumbah.

TWEED VALLEY residents were paid a special visit by Australian cricket legend and top Aussie bloke Merv Hughes on Friday, September 13. Mr Hughes was in town for a special event at the Imperial Hotel, which was a full house, and he also dropped into Priceline Pharmacy Murwillumbah to meet with staff and fans. Mr Hughes helped launch the Priceline Pharmacy ‘Misterhood for the Sisterhood’ fundraiser in May 2018 and continues to be a strong advocate for the foundation. Merv was the first ever ‘Mister’ to join the Priceline Sisterhood Foundation which is proudly supported by Priceline Sisters, Ita Buttrose, Ada Nicodemou, Samantha Harris and Ellyse Perry. The celebrities raise funds for the foundation which supports five charities that help women and their families. “I’ve partnered with Priceline Pharmacy as I believe it’s important for blokes to get on board and support this cause because these charities help women and their families,” Merv said at the May launch. “I have a wife, mother and daughter so I’m passionate about making sure there are support structures that help families and communities. “I want to raise some serious cash and awareness for these charities.” Charity partners of the Foundation include: Look Good Feel Better, Children First Foundation, Perinatal Anxiety & Depression Australia (PANDA), Dementia Australia and Raise Foundation.

Tips for outdoor spring cleaning IT’S SPRING Cleaning time across the Tweed Shire this month with plenty of local businesses ready to help with all your outdoor jobs big and small. Whether you’re planning a landscaping or digging job, need to get the pool cleaned, are looking to install new shades or blinds, check your air conditioner or need a skip to remove all your unwanted items; advice and support are only a phone call away with our expert local Spring-Cleaning businesses. Over the winter months the outside of homes naturally tends to become neglected. Even the mowing or gardening can be left for long periods in winter and no one wants to wash windows in the cold weather. But this all changes once spring is in the air which is the best time to get out there and deep clean the outside of your home. Here’s some general outdoor springcleaning tips to use for your home this season: Clean the front veranda: Remove all furniture and decorations from the front veranda and power wash or hand scrub for best results. If you don’t have a power washer then a water hose spray nozzle will do just fine. Be sure and spray the underneath of your patio roof to get rid of spider webs. Clean the light fixtures as well for good measure. Wash outdoor furniture: Depending on your furniture it’s good to give it a thorough wash or wipe. You can spray most grim off outdoor furniture after you remove cushions and the tables can be cleaned with glass cleaner. Remember to clean the front door mat. At this stage it’s good practice to wash the front door. Now repeat the first steps on the back veranda.

I can already tell your garage has filled up with stuff during winter, so now is a great time to throw away anything that is broken or that you know you aren’t going to use again. You’ll be surprised at the amount of stuff that accumulates in the garage over the winter. Clean the windows: Remove all of the screens and wash both the outside of the windows and the screens. This is one of my favourite ways to spruce up the outside of my home. Clean out your gutters: After the leaves fall from the trees in the fall your gutters can get pretty dirty. Mow the yard: Depending on when you start this checklist it may already be time to start mowing and weed eating your yard. Remember if you need some help, local businesses in The Weekly are friendly and are ready to help in the Spring Clean feature and in our trades section (pages 47-50).

Local News Thursday, September 19, 2019

Free mental health support for bushfire stress By Megan Albany EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR of Wellness at the North Coast Primary Health Network (NCPHN), Monika Wheeler, has urged Tweed residents to utilise a free counselling service designed to assist people suffering from depression, anxiety or mental health issues as a result of the recent bushfires. “The stress of experiencing something like a bushfire can leave people at a high risk of developing depression or anxiety,” Ms Wheeler said. “We’re not only talking about people who have lost their property or possessions during the fires, although of course our heart goes out to them, but anybody who has been affected by the bushfires.” In the wake of the bushfires, the NCPHN are coordinating a mental health response that includes widening the eligibility criteria for the Healthy Minds program. “Last week, anyone who was living on the North Coast would have been very aware we had a lot of bushfires burning out of control,” Ms Wheeler said. “There was a lot of smoke around and the sky was very hazy and for some people that might have triggered a memory of a past incident or it might have made them worry about different aspects of their health because of the smoke. “Major events such as natural disasters affect all of us differently, so if the recent bushfires have affected you, we’re offering a service for free that will be able to address some of those concerns you may have.” Anyone affected by the local fires can now book in for free face-to-face counselling services with a mental health practitioner such as a psychologist or mental health social worker. The program has been developed in conjunction with Beyond Blue and anyone can self-refer to the program without the need for a referral from a GP.

Ms Wheeler said that while everyone will feel down and worried at times that it was important to be able to recognise when mood or behavioural changes become something more than a temporary reaction. “People should think about seeking help if their anxiety or depression is affecting the way they cope with day to day activities whether that’s at home, at work, on the farm or at school. “It’s important not to ignore the symptoms but to reach out to a trained health professional.” While a lot of work has been done to destigmatise mental illness, Ms Hayes said some people may still feel uncomfortable if they feel their mental health is suffering. “One in two of us will experience a mental health illness at some point in our lives so it is nothing to be ashamed of,” she said. “The most common mental illnesses are anxiety and depression and a lot of people will face these types of conditions at some point in their lives. “Seeking help is an important step forward to getting the support you need. “Your mental health is just as important as your physical health and in the same way that we get a regular physical health check it is also important to tune in to our mental health. “The sooner you are proactively getting the help you need, the sooner you are hopefully going to get more well.” Local residents experiencing mild to moderate mental health concerns should call Healthy Minds on 1300 137 237 between 8.30am and 5pm Monday to Friday. Healthy Minds and NewAccess are not crisis services. If you require immediate support contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue on 1300 224 636. For children under 12 years, call the Kids Helpline on 1800 551 800. In an emergency, please call 000 or go to your nearest hospital emergency department. For more information visit www.ncphn.org.au

Sweet Talk with Robert Hawken

Cane growers holding out for rain

SEPTEMBER HAS continued to be very dry and the district’s farmers are feeling the effects of the drought with no grass growth on the slopes and very little on the fertile floodplain of the valley. Most cane growers have been busy planting. Some are finished but others have delayed planting due to a lack of moisture. Hopefully storms this week will bring some much-needed rain. Week twelve of the cane harvest saw 24,712 tonnes of cane processed at Condong with sugar content of 12.28 CCS. The crop estimate is now at 495,000 tonnes and looks to be achievable with approximately half the crop now cut. A considerable amount of cane has been harvested green this year because of the demand for straw.

The cane straw is being used as garden mulch and as a supplement to stock feed. Daytime burning restrictions are currently in place on days of very high fire danger and so the opportunity to remove the straw from the fields is fortunate for growers. As well as this, a few severely frosted fields of cane have been harvested for cattle feed. Most fields that have been harvested are ratooning (re-shooting) well despite the dry conditions and fertilising is the next major operation for growers. Hopefully, with warmer weather and some rain the crop will be off to a good start for next year, but we would all like to see a little mud. Until next time, best wishes to all readers, Rob Hawken

Rising water concerns as drought grips A UNIVERSITY of NSW community attitudes survey has shown growing concerns over water as the drought in our regional areas continues. Fears outlined in the survey include an expectation that water may not be available for anything other than essential uses such as drinking. According to the survey, one third of regional NSW residents are stressed about their fresh water supplies, with many fearing water will soon be unavailable for gardens, trees, parks and public spaces. The survey also showed a growing desire for sustainable water security planning with suggestions including new dams, the recycling of wastewater for drinking and new water restrictions for homes and businesses.

Despite this, over seventy per cent of regional residents felt that the government had not done enough when it comes to plans for ongoing water security. UNSW Global Water Institute Director, Professor Greg Leslie, said the results of the survey showed that people wanted action when it came to water supplies. “Equality to the access to clean water for domestic use is in jeopardy, and this fact is essentially lost in the debate about water capacity,” he said. The survey also showed over half of regional NSW residents were in favour of recycling wastewater, expanding and building more dams and implementing a water saving/ conservation plan for businesses.

Journendyon s with Nick Co

GEORGIANS HAVE been making wine for about 8,000 years, making Georgia one of the oldest wine regions in the world. Crossing the border from Azerbaijan to Georgia by land involved a very long and at times, steep, walk between the two countries. So much land is in no man’s land - it seemed like a waste. We were greeted on the other side by our friendly guide and driver. After driving for about an hour, we stopped for lunch at a local family’s house. Georgians say a guest is a gift from God and we were certainly made to feel very welcome. The food was delicious. We were served fresh bread, salad from their garden, cheese, dolmas (chicken wrapped in vine

leaves), some sort of soggy pizza with cheese in the middle (tasted better than it sounds) and marinated pork A c c o m p a ny i n g t h e m e a l wa s homemade red wine, white wine, cognac and chacha (a local brandy). After lunch, we visited a 400-year-old wine cellar where the wine from lunch was made - one of thousands of small producers throughout the country. Wine in Georgia is not fermented in barrels or vats but instead under the ground in 1,000-litre ceramic pots called Kvevri - the wooden lids of which poke out of the dirt cellar floor which become challenging to avoid after a few tastings. The owner explained the process of making wine. To make red or white wine involves first pressing the grapes and pouring the juice, grape skins, pips and stalks into the Kvevri which is then sealed. The juice is then left to ferment for months, sometimes years before it is

decanted and bottled, with the leftovers used to make their fiery chacha. The Kvevri is then washed out with lime and lined with beeswax before being reused. We sampled both the red and the white wine direct from a Kvevri which contained wine that had been fermenting for almost 20 years. The wine did not have the oaky barrel flavours found in other wine and the white wine was darker in colour due to it being fermented with skins - which differs from the french wine making process. The winemaker also proudly told us that Georgian wine has a unique flavour that you don’t get from other wines. It was certainly different and well worth the visit.

DIZZINESS AND BALANCE AWARENESS WEEK SEPTEMBER 15-21 2019 lmagine living life without balance. Close your eyes and stand on one foot. lt’s hard, right? Now imagine having that same disoriented feeling on two feet, with your eyes open. Balance is something most of us take for granted, until, of course, we lose it. Balance disorders are typically under diagnosed and undertreated. More than 1/3 of adults aged 40 years and older experience vestibular dysfunction at some point in their lives. Common symptoms of vestibular disorders include vertigo and dizziness. Vertigo is a spinning or whirling sensation, or an illusion of the self or world moving. Dizziness is a lightheaded, floating or rocking sensation. Poor balance, nausea, visual disturbances, headache, hearing loss, tinnitus, and pain or fullness in the ears can accompany vestibular disorders.

HOW CAN YOUR OSTEOPATH HELP? There are many causes of dizziness or vertigo. But most types of vestibular disorders can be diagnosed by means of a thorough medical history and clinical examination. The most common type of vertigo is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), and once diagnosed is easily treated with repositioning manoeuvres, with a success rate of 90%. (Silva, 2014). Another type of vertigo encountered is Cervicogenic Vertigo, which is due to a dysfunction in the neck. Again once diagnosed, it can be easily treated with Osteopathic intervention. Your Osteopath can diagnose most of the common types of vestibular disorders and can either treat the condition or refer on for further diagnosis and treatment. Dr Rudi Gerhardt B.Sc., D.O.

Tweed dance students prove they are spectacular ByMegan Albany FOUR SCHOOLS from the Tweed have been chosen to participate in this year’s Schools Spectacular at QUDOS Bank Arena in Sydney’s Olympic Park on November 22 and 23. All four schools, including Kingscliff High, Kingscliff Public, Banora Point High and Bogangar Public will be participating in the Combined Dance section of the prestigious performance which is broadcast on the Channel 7 network. The students will be joined by 5500 performers from across the state in a display of student talent which showcases a total of 2300 dancers as well as a 100-piece symphony orchestra, a stage band, a 2700 strong voice choir, the D’Arts Ensemble disability program, an Aboriginal Dance Company, puppets and a student-led behind the scenes team. “We are recognised as the biggest performance of its kind in the world, and to attain this success everyone has to shine in their role,” Schools Spectacular Creative Director, Sonja Sjolander said. The theme for this year is ‘stars’ and Ms Sjolander said that everyone involved in the creation of the event had a role to play.

“We are all stars, whether we are the performers on stage, backstage, crew, the dedicated teachers who make everything happen for their students or the parents who devote countless hours ensuring their children have this wonderful opportunity to star in the Schools Spectacular.” Karen Goode is one of two dance teachers at Kingscliff High School who knows exactly how much it takes to get students ready for a peformance of this calibre. “We will be taking sixteen students down to the schools spectacular this year,” Ms Goode said. “We also have two teachers who travel down with the students and normally about half the parents come as well. “We’re in a regional item so we join together with all the other regional schools across the state. “We learn the movement through YouTube links then we have a choreographer who flies in from Sydney to work with our students. “After that they get two days of rehearsal in Sydney to rehearse with all the students in the item before the actual performance.” Ms Goode said students cover their own accomodation during the trip and that it was a significant commitment by both the students and their families.

Kingscliﬀ High School dance students will join students from three other Tweed schools at the Schools Spectacular

“ O u r s t u d e n t s h av e b e e n fundraising all year because of the cost factor of going down to Sydney,” she said. “All of our students have chosen dance as an elective subject at school and the majority of them also dance outside of school with a local dance school, so they are really taking this seriously and some are definitely considering dance as a career.

“It’s such an amazing opportunity but it’s not just about the dancing. “Some of these students have never even left the North Coast before, so to fly down and meet so many different kids from different backgrounds will be an amazing experience and something they will remember forever.” Wi t h mu s i c i a n s, i n c l u d i n g members of the 100-piece

symphony orchestra, stage band and Millennium Marching Band, still to be announced, students throughout the state are continuing an anxious wait to see if they will also have the opportunity for their moment in the spotlight. Tickets for the performance are available through Ticketek.

Saving animals with artwork By Megan Albany WHEN CHRISTIAN Palmer’s Jack Russell dog passed away he was inspired to immortalise his pet in a painting. Now he has turned his focus to animals at risk of extinction. The artist, who originally studied fine art at Central St Martins College of Arts in London, said that what started out as a grief reaction to losing man’s best friend ended up influencing his artistic subject matter for many years to come. “I used to paint a lot of large abstract landscape paintings, but when my dog ended up getting cancer at quite a young age and I had to put him down, I did a painting of him and it was quite a healing process for me,” he said. “After that, people started asking me to paint their deceased animals and that process was really gratifying and it kind of just snowballed from there and I went from doing domestic animals, to agricultural animals and then to wildlife.” These days the artist, whose latest exhibition Now & Then is at the M|Arts Precinct until September 29, is using his talent to highlight the fight to protect endangered species. “I try and give something back from my exhibitions to a conservation society or something that will help animals as I just feel a responsibility to do that seeing they are my subject matter. “The first time I did this was in Singapore with Let Elephants Be

Elephants, which is an organisation set up to educate the Asian market about the ivory trade.” White rhinos, elephants, tigers and lions feature Mr Palmer’s latest works along with some of his well-known spray painted and stencilled animals which draw on his background in the street-art movement. Despite years of working as a professional artist, the prolific Northern Rivers-based artist admits there have been times when he has found it difficult to keep up with the demand for his paintings. “For a period of maybe eight to ten years I was producing two shows a year and there was never a moment where I didn’t have something on my list to do or produce,” he said. “There are times when you don’t actually feel like doing a painting and about a year ago, for the first time in my life, I went through a creative block and it lasted quite a long time. “I just had to close the door and do other things as it was just becoming a process which I really didn’t like and it can be hard to admit that so I just had to take a break and step back.” Mr Palmer said that while as a professional artist there are deadlines that need meeting, the best art is always art that comes from an internal impulse to create. “When you have no choice but to express yourself in that way, that’s when it’s most gratifying,” he said.

THE AUSTRALIAN DREAM

Christian Palmer’s artwork

“At those times there is no other channel of communication that works other than my art. “I can work a lot of stuff out while I am in the process of painting as you’re not thinking of anything else and you have a stillness about you, so it’s like a type of meditation.” While Mr Palmer said he is now used to selling his work, he said initially selling the art he had worked so hard to produce was difficult. “I have taken paintings off the market before and initially when I first started exhibiting, I did find it really hard to part with some of them, but now further down the track, I find it humbling that someone wants my paintings to be part of their life. “If I actually meet the person who buys it, that helps, as it’s nice to know how they feel about the work and the fact that they’ve forked out the money to buy it is quite a compliment.” For more information visit www. christianpalmer.com.au

From time to time a film arrives that ‘speaks’ to the psyche of a nation and demands attention. The Australian Dream is one such film. It tells the story of Adam Goodes, the son of an Irish man and an Aboriginal woman who went from being a shy country kid to an AFL star and Australian of the Year, becoming an inspiration for many until his world fell apart when he became the target of racial abuse during a game. The public backlash that followed when he spoke out about racism to a country that was not ready to hear the ugly truth broke his heart and he ended up retiring from AFL. The documentary is written by journalist Stan Grant, who has the ability to articulate in a very strong yet poetic way the agony of being in between two racial identities and the issue at the core of not only Adam Goodes’s reversal of fortune but of the whole nation. The film features voiceovers and interviews with Adam Goodes, Grant himself and other public personalities, including Andrew Bolt, one of the media’s most antagonistic voices. The narrative goes back and forth through the history of Australia and frames Goodes’s predicament as a moment of agony but also as a chance for the country to address the issue of racism, start healing and ‘re-boot’ the idea of the ‘Australian dream’ – which has been a nightmare for many until now… I am a relative new-comer to Australia and may therefore be a bit naïve on the subject. However my impression is that everybody in Australia should see this film, even people who are not sport fans. I confess that I know nothing about football and I have never seen an AFL game, but I am very much looking forward to this..!

By Jonathon Howard MUCH-LOVED LOCAL bush poet Paddy O’Brien has been named the winner of the best original poem at the Queensland Bush Poetry Championships in Beaudesert earlier this month. Paddy was also named winner of the People’s Choice Award and came third in the Modern Poem section. Paddy’s poem Mickey Felute was the winning original poem. Paddy has been writing and stage performing poetry and spinning his tall tales for the past 20 years, which he formed overseas in Canada. Paddy’s performed all over Australia with his original and traditional take on Australian life. “I write a lot about things that happen to me in life including the people I meet the people I work with or encounter along the way,” he said. Paddy said he wanted to encourage other young writers and poets to embrace their desire to perform and publish.

“The social aspects of poetry are great and it’s also the doors that it opens to creative expression,” he said. Paddy’s next event is at the Nimbin Bowls Club open mic night followed by Tamworth Country Music Festival in 2020.

about,” she said. “We will let you know who to call as well as important things to look out for to gauge a koala’s health, such as noticing whether or not they have a brown bottom or red eyes. “We will also be helping to build an awareness of what’s going on with the koala population, where they are located and what you can personally do if you spot a koala, such as registering where you have saw a koala on the council website.” Ms Hayes said in the past few years, Team Koala have planted 7,000 koala trees with Tweed Shire Council and “it’s not just us but Landcare groups as well”. “All the groups are uniting because we have a common goal which is to save the Tweed Coast Koalas,” she said. Ms Hayes said there will also be a focus on road safety to help make life safer for koalas living in suburban areas. “If you cannot stop for a nine-month-old koala baby randomly crawling across the road then you are going too fast,” she said. “When you slow down then everyone behind you slows down.” Entry by gold coin donation.

By Jo Kennett AS THE bushfires continue to put extra stress on wildlife, Team Koala President, Jenny Hayes, says now is the time to explore what we can all do to make a difference. With the aim of helping to educate locals about what to do if they find an animal in distress, Team Koala will host a free Koala Family Fun Day at Pottsville Community Hall on Sunday, September 22, from 10am to 5pm. Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary will be in attendance to help families understand how they can make simple changes to help wildlife during these tough times. “Most people saw the photo of the koala mum who was scorched while protecting her baby from the fire and those sorts of images can be very upsetting,” Ms Hayes said. “If we could be out there saving koalas, we would be, but because we can’t go out to the fire ground this is our way of doing something. Ms Hayes said it is important that members of the community are informed about what to do if they find a koala in distress. “We will be letting you know what to do if you see a koala that you are concerned

THIRTEEN YEAR 4 to 6 students at Duranbah Public School are making the final preparations for a unique school excursion as they travel to Norfolk Island for five days this week. Duranbah Public School Principal Jason Ellem, who used to teach on the island, said the visit from September 17 to 21 is a key element in the students’ study of the Pacific region. “For an island of only 35 square kilometres and a population of just over 2,000, Norfolk Island has played an enormous part in Australia’s history,” said Jason. “The study of that history will take up most of the students’ time during their stay, with no fewer than four museums and the cemetery and prison ruins to visit, plus an afternoon at Norfolk Island Central School studying the island’s diverse culture and language. “Each day they’ll be posting interviews they’ve done, photos and footage, so their peers back in the Tweed can also learn from the trip.” The itinerary also includes a glassbottomed boat trip to study inshore sea

The student group were exciting for the big trip

life, and a sports afternoon at the Central School, which has supported the trip as the destination contact and through arranging transport. The island lies about two-thirds of the way to New Zealand, roughly at the same latitude as Byron Bay, its cultural influences including from Australia, New Zealand, Melanesia, Britain, Tahiti and Pitcairn Island. The school community has spent six months organising fundraisers to ensure the trip can go ahead.

Justine MP slams nuclear talk FEDERAL MEMBER for Richmond Justine Elliot has spoken in parliament condemning what she says are clear plans to develop a nuclear power industry in Australia, after she gathered a range of comments and information suggesting nuclear power remains on the table. “I rise to condemn this government’s dangerous plans to develop a nuclear power industry in Australia,” Mrs Elliot said in parliament recently. “We’re seeing intensifying pressure from the Liberals and Nationals, at all levels of government, pushing this very toxic agenda. “The fact is nuclear power is dangerous and expensive and it would consume vast amounts of precious water at a time when Australia faces increased water security threats due to the gross mismanagement by this government and of course the very harsh impacts of climate change. Mrs Elliot said locals were “rightly angry” when the issue was recently raised in question time when she specifically questioned the Morrison government about their plans to build nuclear power plants. “I asked the energy minister if he would rule out a nuclear power station being built in Northern NSW or on the Gold Coast,” she said. “In his response the minister said he had ‘an open mind’ on the issue of nuclear energy. “Our community on the NSW north coast have major objections to nuclear energy, and I stand with them in opposing nuclear power plants in coastal communities like ours. “We’ve seen so many Liberal and National members strongly advocating this idea, and the Prime Minister has even said that nuclear power is ‘not not’ on his agenda. “We saw the member for New England, a Nationals MP, with his bizarre idea that authorities could get around public concerns about the safety of nuclear energy by giving people free power if they could see a nuclear reactor from their home—quite bizarre. We also have the NSW Nationals leader and Deputy Premier, John Barilaro, calling nuclear power ‘the solution’ to cheaper energy. “My community on the North Coast, and indeed many communities across the country, does have a major issue with nuclear energy, and I stand with them in opposing any nuclear power plants in coastal communities like ours on the NSW North Coast. YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe nuclear power is an option for Australian power needs in the future? Or do you believe the risks of nuclear power plants outweigh the benefits?

Marilyn, Tash, Stacy, Charlie, Olivia, Ishan, Jayda, Yohan and Liam. Rest in Peace Always in our memories, forever in our hearts.

I’m Free

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free. I’m following the path God has laid, you see. I took His hand when I heard His call. I turned my back and left it all.

Tasks left undone must stay that way, I found the peace at the close of day.

I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work or play.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.

If my parting has left a void, Then fi ll it with remembered joys. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, yes, these things I too will miss.

My life’s been full, I savored much, Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch. Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts, and peace to thee. God wanted me now, He set me free

It needs to be apolitical, and presented in each session by people who live or have lived in the culture concerned. Each culture would probably occupy one or two presentations of the overall course; but who knows where that might lead? You’d be supported by a U3A member at your presentations.

Holding Shotwith Judy Tuckey certainly proved to be a happy hunting ground for Pottsville’s Alana Sharp and Jill Morris. This find bowling duo dazzled and frazzled their opposition during their journey to the final of this event. In the preliminary round, the ladies made short work of the St Johns Park team to take their place in the quarter finals. Charlestown was the next team to find themselves on the negative side of the scoreboard after their encounter with the Tweed Byron ladies in the quarters. South Tamworth’s own home team was all that now stood between the Potty ladies and a berth in the final. Buoyed by their previous successes, the team settled to the job at hand and once again came up trumps. The final itself, a hard fought game

OCEAN SHORES’ recent Club Singles Championship final between Barbara Sprengel and Janine Howell developed into a close encounter for the contestants. Sprengel trailed early as Howell was building up a handy stockpile of shots during the first five ends. However, finding her mojo, Sprengel then began to catch up and overtake Howell to the tune of 19-9 after 14 ends. Not at all deterred, a determined Howell fought back valiantly scoring nine shots to Sprengel’s one during the next seven ends to reduce her deficit to just two shots down. A fierce exchange of shots during the following ends resulted in Sprengel holding her narrow margin to take the game and claim the champions title.

($4,650) for our Inshore Rescue boats (IRBs). Looking Back: at the annual meeting of 1966-67 the suggestion of forming a nipper club was mentioned. A meeting was called for October 2 and on October 30 officers elected were Jack Julius as President and Bill Sanotti as Secretary/Treasurer. Ages were 8-13 years. Twenty boys were enrolled and the Kingscliff Lady Lions presented each member with a competition cap. The lads were divided into three groups of SubJunior, Junior and Senior. Monthly point scores were held and points allocated for each event. Members were divided into teams of Sharks, Dolphins, and SubJuniors being Darts in charge of Noel Bulmer. The Club subsidised transport from Murwillumbah each week on George Batten’s bus. At the conclusion of the season in February, 84 nippers were

SNAPPER ROCKS surfer Piper Harrison has won the prestigious Nias Pro QS1000 event in good four to five feet (1.5m) waves at the famous Lagunri Bay point break. The remote island of Nias, situated off the south facing coast of North Sumatra, is one of the world’s most famous and high quality point breaks, and Harrison was in fine form before the event, taking on some huge drops and barrels as seen on her Instagram account. Harrison dominated the final with her typically powerful committed approach to defeat Manly surfer Alysse Cooper in the all-Australian final. “It’s been a fantastic event and it really is a special WSL trophy to claim because the wave is so world class, and to win you really have to perform here,” said the 18 year-old. “Everyone’s has been surfing so strong in these waves and pushing each other all the way and it’s a super good feel event at such a remote and beautiful location.” Harrison took control early with an excellent 8.83 ride where her power turns and commitment to the most critical sections were displayed. Harrison now gets some valuable ratings points to help her towards a better seeding, and looking towards qualification to the Championship Tour in 2021.

Vissla Kirra Junior Teams and Sista Revolution Teams Challenge this Weekend

THE 11TH Annual Vissla Kirra Junior Teams Challenge will be held this Friday Saturday and Sunday. 24 teams from Noosa to Wollongong will be taking part in the most prestigious junior teams challenge in the world. Also it will be the Sista Revolution Womens Kirra Teams Challenge at the same time with 10 teams of Women and girls from all over the country competing to win the Kirra Eagle. The event will be held at Duranbah Beach, and it will be three days of the best junior surfing going down in the country. Once again the Sydney Teams will be a big threat, the defending boys champions North Steyne back for glory again. Local clubs like the Snapper Rocks Surfriders, Burleigh Boardriders, LeBa (Lennox Ballina) and Coffs Harbour will be all hard to beat. Kingscliff and Cabarita will be rattling a few cages, with a great bunch of junior surfers in both clubs. This is a great event and well worth going to check it out over the weekend.

Freshwater Saturday

Pro

Underway

Well the action will be underway at Kelly Slater’s wave pool, and the forecast is for indexical pumping left and right handers. Gabiel Medina

is the defending Men’s Champion, Stephanie Gilmore the champ in the womens, and the surf action will be going off like a frog in a sock. Surfers will ride waves in reverse order of their CT ranking, meaning the lowest-rated wildcard will go first. Assuming it’s like last year, surfers will ride a left then a right consecutively, after which the next lowest-rated surfer will get their turn. This goes on until each surfer has ridden four total waves (two lefts, two rights). It appears the WSL has implemented a new bracket system—surfers will be clumped into six groups of six—to determine advancements. All sounds a bit confusing, but the surfing should be off the hook. But it is a little repetitive, so I reckon the surfer who puts it on the line and does something different may cause an upset. Will be fun to watch and the action should kick-off from around 1am on Friday. Catch You in the Waves

Tweed Valley Sailing Club juniors on the road and Summer Season kicks off THIS MONTH the Tweed Valley Sailing Club (TVSC) Juniors packed up the boats, loaded their tents (and their families) and headed south to the mighty Clarence River for the first of a series of Australian Sailing run youth training camps. The venue was the envy of all sailing clubs, especially “container club” TVSC. The brand new clubhouse at Big River Sailing Club in Harwood with camping in the spacious club grounds by the river was ideal. The kids were also impressed with their young kiwi instructor, George Martin – he did an excellent job along with assistance from TVSC’s Nicole Bushnell with the race training group who sailed in their first full length race on the

Saturday afternoon. Morgan and Miles Bushnell (aged 13 and 10) from Eviron had their Manly Junior “M&M” flying. They’re looking forward to being joined on the water at Fingal Head this summer in the TVSC’s newly acquired fleet of six Manly Juniors. Kynan Luescher, 12, from Fingal made a big step up from our X3 training boats to a 4.7 Laser (smaller sail than a full rig Laser) and Konnor Wheeler isn’t far off doing the same. Lots of new sailing buddies were made and our youngsters learned a lot from George and all the other sailors. It was a great experience for them and a fun weekend for all the families too. Back on the Tweed, we’ve had our AGM and the committee

welcomes new Club Secretary Garry Bargh from Ocean Shores. The club is getting ready to kick off their Summer Season with a Try Sailing session next Sunday, September 22, plus a warm up race to start the series in the afternoon. There will be a sausage sizzle and briefing at midday by Fingal boat ramp, come and say hello. If you’d like to find out more about sailing with TVSC drop us an email tvscmail@gmail.com and Nicole or Alison will get back to you. Our “She Sails” Rep Monique Smith would also like to hear from you if you’re keen to join some women’s sailing events this season - there’s always room for more! www.tvsc.com.au www.shesails. org.au

At the footy with Quinny SEMI-FINALS FOOTY is just a different beast. The Roosters absolutely exploded on Friday night and have confirmed their favourites status. They are clearly the team to beat. From a coaching perspective they are really good to watch with so many options all across the park yet they do all the little things just so well. Joseph Manu is in sublime form and is creating a pretty impressive highlights reel for 2019. The Rabbits were down on troops but do need to regroup against a gallant Manly team. Manly have half a team and continue to win and win well. Des has the group steeled for a tilt at the title and they are in a good frame of mine even with half their team watching from the sideline.

Kynan Luscher has stepped up to a 4.7 Laser

The Sharks were pretty disappointing in this game to be honest in what was Paul Gallen’s last game of Rugby League. The big upset from the weekend was the all conquering Storm being rolled by Canberra. Canberra are absolutely flying at the right end of the year and sit in the box seat in my opinion now to reach the big dance. They are a very confident team who threaten from so many parts of the field yet seem very confident and composed defensively. I’m a huge fan of Bateman and I love the way Wighton plays the game. A preliminary final in Canberra will be a massive bonus for them and the Viking Clap will be in full swing. Melbourne will need to regroup, it was looking like they would just strangle the life out of Canberra and get the result until the drop ball from Addo Carr swung the momentum.

The Storm are definitely not a team you like to play after a loss and Bellamy didn’t look too impressed at the press conference. Melbourne will take on a fearless Parramatta who absolutely annihilated the Broncos on Sunday. It was a great spectacle with BankWest choc a block full of Blue and Gold and the players didn’t let the supporters down. They were simply breathtaking but maybe that had a bit to do with an extremely disappointing Broncos outfit who looked as though they couldn’t wait for the season to end. A few weeks out but I think the Roosters and Canberra are in the box seat. One thing we know for sure the Roosters Melbourne GF that was predicted won’t be happening. Was great to see the WNRL get underway on the weekend also what a great spectacle it is. See you at the footy, Quinny
