Pressure on our local hospitals BHI chief executive Dr Diane Watson said the results reflected that there was a relatively mild flu season this year as compared to last year’s severe flu season.

“While we need to take this year’s milder flu season into consideration when looking at these results, it is still encouraging to see results at NSW level have improved compared with the same quarter last year,” Dr Watson said.

Northern NSW Local Health District Chief Executive, Wayne Jones praised clinicians across the region for improved emergency department treatment start times of 79.4 per cent “a significant improvement compared to the same quarter last year”.

Across the district 78.9 per cent of patients left emergency departments within four hours, an increase of 2.7 percentage points “We continue to see big numbers of patients through the doors at Northern NSW hospitals and our staff are doing an incredible job delivering the best level of patient care possible,” Mr Jones said.

Elective surgery wait times

For those on the wait list for elective surgery, it will probably come as no surprise that the number of elective surgical procedures performed across the state has risen by 2.6 per cent.

In the Tweed region however, this rise was substantially greater especially when it came to urgent elective surgery.

The number of urgent elective surgery procedures performed at Murwillumbah hospital rose by 17.9 per cent, with urgent procedures also rising by a notable 9.2 per cent at The Tweed Hospital.

Despite the increased demand for elective surgeries, the wait time in

Murwillumbah for urgent elective surgery remained at 14 days, the same as the previous quarter last year.

The news was not as promising at Tweed hospital however where the wait time increased by four days up to 15 days.

In Murwillumbah there was a much larger rise of 11 days, increasing the wait time to a total of 54 days.

The Tweed Hospital, while also increasing, had a less significant rise of six days rising to a total of 44 days for semi-urgent operations.

Those waiting on non-urgent surgery across the state have had to wait an additional 15 days to 228 days.

The Tweed rose even further, with an increase of 41 days taking the wait time up to 286 days.

Murwillumbah however bucked the trend, decreasing its wait time for nonurgent surgery by 93 days, but this still left it above the state median waiting time, with a wait time of 245 days.

Despite the lengthy wait periods, 97.6 per cent of surgeries were performed within clinically recommended time frames of 30 days for urgent surgery, 90 days for semi-urgent surgery and 365 days for non-urgent.

While in the previous quarter Murwillumbah hospital could boast that 100 per cent of its surgeries were performed within the time frame recommended by clinicians, this quarter they lost their perfect score, falling to 98.6 per cent, which was still above the state’s median time frame.

Tweed Hospital’s time frames also slipped from last year falling 2.9 per cent to just under the state average at 96.1 per cent.

THE LATEST Healthcare Quarterly report released by the Bureau of Health Infor mation (BHI) has indicated that Murwillumbah Hospital and The Tweed Hospital are under pressure with waiting times slipping for both emergency presentations and elective surgeries.

The BHI report assessed hospitals throughout NSW and compared the July to September 2018 quarter, with the same quarter last year.

Both hospitals followed the state’s falling trend in overall emergency department presentations where Murwillumbah saw seven per cent less patients while Tweed saw 1.4 per cent less.

A total of 4,488 patients attended Murwillumbah Hospital’s emergency department in the quarter, while Tweed had a total of 13,133 presentations.

While presentations to the emergency departments in both Murwillumbah and Tweed hospitals were down from the same time last year, patients were still spending longer in emergency despite the fall in numbers with 1.5 per cent less people able to leave the emergency department under the recommended time of four hours in Murwillumbah to a total of 86.8 per cent of all patients.

At The Tweed Hospital 1.3 per cent less were leaving the Tweed’s emergency department on time, a total of 76.6 per cent.

Despite the slight increase in overall wait times however, most patients were still being treated within the recommended time frames in both hospitals with Murwillumbah treating 89.1 per cent of its patients on time and the Tweed treating 80.8 per cent on time.

Labor commits to Kings Forest as Nationals issue caution over delays Mr Daley also pledged to retain The Tweed Hospital site in public hands for “community and continuing healthcare”.

“My commitment is ironclad – Labor will build the hospital in Kings Forest and protect the current Hospital from being handed over to developers,” Mr Daley said.

“Labor has listened to communities in the Tweed and if I become Premier in March next year, the people of the Tweed will get their hospital at Kings Forest.”

Mr Elliot said the March 2019 election will be a “referendum on the location of a new Tweed Hospital”.

“My commitment is to build the Tweed Hospital at Kings Forest but that should not be at the expense of residents living north of the river,” he said.

Meanwhile, Member for Tweed Geoff Provest has slammed the Labor Leader highlighting that Mr Daley has admitted he will “delay the delivery of the Tweed

Valley Hospital by years and blow the budget by at least $100 million”.

“The people of Tweed are fed up with political games and want action,” he said.

“We don’t need a former Minister from the disastrous Labor Government talking up projects they intend to cancel and delay across the state.

“Nothing happened during Labor’s 16 years in government, and now they are back and want us to believe they have changed. Well the people of Tweed deserve more.”

Craig Elliot and Michael Daley

NSW LABOR leader Michael Daley visited The Tweed Hospital recently to reassure locals that should Labor take government at the next state election it will build a new hospital at Kings Forest.

Speaking with The Weekly, Mr Daley admitted that his party had a huge task ahead to take government.

“We have to perform a feat that no government has won before,” he said.

“We have to win seats we’ve never won before. We have to climb Everest.”

Mr Daley was joined by candidate for Tweed Craig Elliot to recommit to Labor’s plans for the new Tweed Hospital as part of Mr Daley’s listening tour of rural and regional NSW. Mr Daley said people across regional NSW were up in arms about the Berejiklian Government’s $2.2 billion to Sydney stadiums instead of properly funding schools and hospitals across NSW.

Jeremy Cornford’s letter (TVW, December 6) is grossly misinformed.

Following the events in December 2017 and March 2018, we hosted open community forums on February 21, March 21, July 3, and August 7, which were advertised by Council, posted in the Tweed Link twice and in Tweed Daily News, on the Kingscliff Happenings Facebook page and by email.

From these meetings we were able to collaboratively establish a new race order which allowed the outer extent of the course to Chinderah to open by 9.30am and Marine Parade to open by 11am.

Moreover, in the three weeks prior to the event, all houses and businesses on course were visited by a member of NXsports. This is in addition to the letterbox drop to Kingscliff, Salt, Casuarina, Cudgen Heights, Fingal and Chinderah to over 4,200 addresses.

All communications included two mobile numbers of NXsports staff who residents could call with any questions or concerns.

Finally, Mr Cornford’s claim that the event is interstate sponsored is flatly false – as the only sponsors for this event were Tweed Shire Council and Tweed Coast Holiday Parks.

Interstate support from organisations such as Triathlon Queensland are not only essential to supply sufficient numbers of triathlon officials, but also greatly assist in bringing new visitors to Kingscliff and the Tweed. Early results estimate that of the 1,324 participants, each brought an average 2.84 supporters; totalling 876 people who had never been to Kingscliff before, and 2,857 who are intending to come for a holiday in the near future.

Throughout the weeks leading up to the event we collectively spoke to many residents to clarify how they could complete their daily activities around the triathlon or

As the President of Tweed Palliative Support and Wedgetail Reteat I would just like to thank The Weekly for the fantastic support over the years.

As an organisation that receives no funding for our community hospice we rely on donations to keep operating. The Weekly has always been there promoting our functions, reporting on our fundraisers and keeping palliative care and Wedgetail on everyone’s minds.

I visit many people’s homes throughout the Tweed and The Weekly is always there on the kitchen table or in the lounge room for the TV section being read.

Combining the Tweed Link within your paper was a great initiative keeping us informed and anything happening particularly in Murwillumbah is reported on.

If we ever need to find a local business for something at the hospice we go straight to The Weekly.

Thanks to Jonathon and his team, you do a great job keeping our community connected and upto-date with all that is happening.

Merry Christmas and best wishes for the year ahead.

Meredith Dennis, President Tweed Palliative Support

Hospital theories growing

The conspiracy theories surrounding the Tweed Valley Hospital grow by the hour. One by one they’re being proven to be exactly that - a conspiracy.

Those against the Cudgen site churn out the theories. The latest that the theft and vandalism onsite didn’t happen, wasn’t investigated and was a slander campaign by politicians and hospital supporters.

Superintendent Wayne Starling from Tweed-Byron Local Area Command put that to rest.

They refuse to accept that clinicians pushed for a Greenfield site, not politicians. Acceptance of the reality Tweed Hospital is beyond upgrading in a cost-effective way is non-existent. Have they bothered

to speak with the clinicians to understand the history?

Claiming the relocation of the hospital from Tweed will see the demise of the Tweed economy shows ignorance of the other businesses in and around the current hospital.

It would be great to see the economic analysis of that bold statement, specifically focused on the hospital traffic.

Of course complaint about community consultation continues, with the latest being councillors weren’t consulted for the past seven years. A refresher course in councillor areas of responsibility is required but it goes along the lines of roads, rates and waste. Perhaps a better understanding of the role of the Local Area Heath District, Medical Council and other health professionals would also help.

Opposers to the Cudgen site claim they’re supportive of a hospital yet fail to demonstrate it constantly.

We hear attacks against politicians, criticism of those supportive, discrediting of all professionals involved in the development, and of course the conspiracies. Not one word about the benefit to the two shires, and the plethora of people who will have gold class facilities closer (and expanded) or the future employment opportunities for today’s youth. You know - people.

A hospital is a building, but it is the people in it and around it that make it critically important to have.

Penny Hockings, Support Our Tweed Valley Hospital Community Group

Hospital facts are simple

There has been much talk and publicity regarding the proposed new Tweed Hospital Site.

In spite of the posturing and claims that building has already started, it would seem that it is far from being so.

The facts are this: Kings Forest has over 860 hectares of viable land available.

The Cudgen Hospital Site has 23 hectares with 16 hectares being above probable maximum flood level.

Everyone agrees that the Gold Coast University Hospital is one of Queensland and the Gold Coasts’ successes.

The Health Precinct at Parkwood comprises a public hospital, private hospital, car parks, Griffith University and an innovation hub.

In all, 200 hectares to future- proof growth and expansion over the next 100 years.

It has become a major teaching and referral hospital and the third largest in Qld.

Taking into consideration these facts it should be a no-brainer as to where our new Tweed Hospital should be built. Population will continue to grow as more and more people move here to share our wonderful lifestyle, and demands on hospital facilities will continue to grow. Therefore the long-term vision has to be that the new site should be Kings Forest which allows for expansion and will be a huge asset to the community and area.

If the hospital is built on the Cudgen Site in five or ten years they would have run out of space and be back to square one and the shire will have to consider another site. At enormous cost.

Think ahead Tweed and look at the facts rationally.

Patricia Rogers, Terranora

Why a rural site for hospital

According to the State Government North Coast Regional Plan, it was always intended that the current hospital be refurbished, retained and expanded, not to build a new one on an alternative site.

Council is totally opposed to the Cudgen site and wants to retain the current site at Tweed Heads.

Mayor Katie Milne is working tirelessly to retain and expand the current hospital. Council has called for an investigation into the site selection process.

So why is the National Party pushing for a new hospital in a rural location close to a beachside village? Could it be that there are plans to develop the whole area as a regional centre with Gold Coast style development? If a hospital is built on the Cudgen site, it is one step closer for the adjacent farmland to lose ‘state significant’ status, then it would be open slather to development.

Doctors are calling out for a major regional hospital to provide the medical needs of a growing population. The Gold Coast hospital cost $1.8 billion, but the Cudgen hospital is estimated to cost $534 million. So does this mean that at about a third of the cost we can expect about a third of the size of the Gold Coast hospital?

Labor is claiming they will build a new hospital at Kings Forest and retain the current hospital. They have failed to say whether either site will be a major regional hospital or what funding would be allocated to it. There is only one way in and one way out for the 10,000 people planned for Kings Forest, ie Tweed Coast Road. Add a hospital into the mix, and it will be a traffic nightmare.

Greens health policy is that everyone has the right to timely,

quality health care. The fairest, most efficient way to achieve this is a well-resourced public system.

They are committed to retaining and expanding the current site and ensuring that the amenity of the Cudgen and Kingscliff communities is not destroyed. With climate change becoming an ever-increasing threat to the viability of farmland to the west, it is more important than ever that we retain our fertile red coastal soil for agriculture.

Detectorist finds many rings

Two days before last Christmas, I found a man’s ring. Without going into too much detail, as a result of someone putting me on Facebook a couple of months later, that ring was returned to its rightful owner.

Last Friday, December 7, I found another. Not the first one for this year. But this time, for some reason, I recalled a lady telling me a few years ago of a man losing a ring and I think she said he was Italian.

Is there anyone out there who can help me find the owner? And please remember folks, I do a lot of metaldetecting, every chance I get. So if you or someone you know has lost a personal item in the past (in the Tweed Shire), phone this number (02) 6676 2685 and ask for Al. If you see me poking about, in public places, especially the creek and main beaches, don’t worry, I detect to a strict code of ethics. I dig as little as possible and do not damage the environment. In fact, I help clean it up.

So don’t hesitate to talk to me if I can help you, or you can help me help others.

Councillors refuse two water extraction applications and approve one

By Jonathon Howard A MAJORITY vote by Councillors during their Planning Committee Meeting on Thursday, December 6, has resulted in the refusal of two water extraction applications and one gaining approval.

The first was an application to establish a water extraction operation at a Dungay Creek Road property, which has been debated by Dungay residents and in the pipeline for several years.

Mayor Katie Milne, Cr Chris Cherry, Cr Ron Cooper and Cr Reece Byrnes all voted against the Dungay application, which had been recommended for approval

by Council staff, while Cr Warren Polglase, Cr James Owen and Cr Pryce Allsop voted to approve the application.

The motion was refused for 11 reasons, which included failing to satisfy the Tweed Local Environment Plan (LEP) regarding “suitable vehicular access”.

T h e re f u s a l a l s o c i t e d t h e Environmental Planning and Assessment Act that the application has “not adequately established that the commercial extraction of groundwater for water bottling is a sustainable use of this resource or that it will not have an adverse impact on natural water systems or the potential agricultural use of the land, the environment, or other groundwater or surface water users”.

Urliup Road changes refused

An application by the Karlos family to increase their extraction limit to 28.5 megalitres and use

existing unapproved structures was also voted down.

Mayor Milne and Cr Cooper raised an alternative motion after the application was recommended for approval with conditions by Council staff.

The motion outlined 11 reasons for refusing the Urliup Road application, which again cited that it had “not been adequately established that the commercial extraction of groundwater for water bottling is a sustainable use of this resource”.

Mount Warning Spring Water approved

Councillors voted to approve an application by Mount Warning Spring Water at Kungur, to start running an additional four trucks on weekdays, commence weekend truck deliveries (eight trips) and extend their operating hours to 7am to 7pm, seven days a week.

The business already had approval to run the additional trucks, of an unlimited size, once a bottling shed was completed, but their application outlines there have been delays in the construction, which is anticipated to be completed in the next three to four months.

The motion was recommended for approval and was carried with a vote from Cr Polglase, Cr Owen, Cr Allsop and Cr Byrnes.

Mayor Milne attempted two amendments to the motion including a deferral of the motion and an amendment requesting restrictions to truck sizes, changes to operating hours and to provide metering, logbooks and CCTV on the site.

Both amendment motions were voted down.

Dungay Action Group response

Dungay Action Group members and president Jack Griffis said the group was “thrilled with the result for both Dungay and Urliup”.

“We and other community groups have been pleased to meet with representatives of the Office of the Chief Scientist, who are charged with conducting an Independent Review of the Impacts of the Bottled Water Industry on Groundwater Resources in the Northern Rivers Region of NSW under their terms of reference,” Mr Griffis said.

Mr Griffis said the group feels it is “imperative that full mapping of our local aquifers, together with their recharge rates and connectivity, is carried out”.

“Once done, examination must be made of the sustainability of the extraction limits in the water sha ring plans for groundwater sources and the impacts on them of current and potential commercial extraction in the Northern Rivers region of NSW,” he said.

Helipad knocked back again

In an earlier motion, a majority of Councilllors voted down both a review of the refusal of a helipad at 477 Urliup Road and a fresh development application for a helicopter to make seven flights a week from the property.

Councillors had voted to refuse the application four to three at their August 2 meeting despite a recommendation by Council officers to approve it.

The review of the refusal by Council officers found there was no reason to refuse the helipad and again recommended it be approved.

The location of the helicopter flight path from the Urliup Road property.

An independent noise assessment found that while an initial noise assessment provided by the applicant could not be supported, “the proposal is recommended for approval, subject to specific conditions of consent”.

The review supported Council’s amended operating hours of 7am to 7pm Monday to Saturday and 8am to 6pm on Sundays, where the applicant had asked for 6.30am to 6.30pm seven days a week.

The application was recommended for approval with conditions by Council staff, but Mayor Milne and Cr Cherry raised an alternative motion which was to refuse the helipad application.

Councillors Polglase, Cr Owen and Cr Allsop voted against the Mayor’s

motion to refuse the helipad but were outnumbered in the final vote.

The refusal listed seven reasons for knocking back the helipad application including that it had “not provided sufficient information to assess the development as the acoustic report has not complied with current requirements for acoustic testing for helicopters”.

“The single flight path proposed does not account for various wind conditions, and the curved path proposed should be confirmed as appropriate by Air Services Australia,” the refusal said.

The motion also outlined that the development does not maintain the rural landscape character of the land under the Tweed Local Environment Plan clause 2.3 and “is not in the public interest”.

When possession really is nine tenths of the law

Tragic koala road death Jo Kennett

The phrase “possession is nine tenths of the law” is said to have been around since the sixteenth century, but it became legal reality recently in the NSW Supreme Court.

The bizarre case centred on property developer Bill Gertos, who had quietly taken over a vacant derelict property in Sydney’s west 20 years ago.

He’d found the house – now valued at $1.3 million – in 1998 when it was falling into disrepair.

The woman who had been living in the house had died, and at the time no-one claimed rights to ownership of the house. Mr Gertos noticed the property while visiting clients in the street and thought squatters had moved in.

He started fixing the place up, changed the locks, and obtained legal advice that if he occupied the property, paid its rates and taxes, fixed it up and installed tenants, then after 12 years he could apply to register himself as owner of the property.

In 2017, Mr Gertos applied to be recorded as the registered proprietor of the land under “adverse possession” – also known as “squatter’s rights” – a rarely used section of law.

“This is an obscure and technical area of law that allows a person to apply to take ownership of land if they have continually occupied it for more than 12 years,” said Merrill Phillips of Stacks Law Firm, winner of the 2018 Australian Institute of Conveyancers CEO Award for excellence.

The court heard that the owner of the property had died in 1947 without a will. A woman renting the home stayed there in a “protected tenancy” until she died in 1998. But after Mr Gertos made the application, a daughter and two grandchildren of the original owner claimed they were the rightful owners of the property.

Ms Phillips said the case sent property lawyers delving into the complexities of the NSW Real Property Act 1900 and the NSW Limitation Act 1969.

“The legal notion of adverse possession goes back to a British House of Lords decision in 1833. The judge in this case noted that the original owner had not lived in the house for some time as it was riddled with termites.”

Justice Rowan Darke dismissed the relatives’ application, as Mr Gertos had openly advertised the property for rent and paid taxes on the property for 19 years. He ruled that Mr Gertos was entitled to own the property under the NSW Limitation Act, as he had been in possession of the land for the required period.

DRIVERS ARE being asked to check their speed in koala zones after a mature female koala was tragically killed on Clothiers Creek Road west of Cabarita on Thursday, December 6.

A Tweed Shire Council spokesperson said the death of the healthy adult female was “highly significant for the endangered Tweed Coast koala population”.

“It’s also a tragic reminder to reduce your speed and take greater care when driving through koala habitat,” a Council spokesperson said.

“Although there’s been an improvement since we introduced the Koala Zone, our monitoring shows that still more than half of drivers are breaking the speed limit (set at 70kph or 50kph closer to Cabarita).”

Team Koala Tweed president Jenny Hayes said there have been two koala deaths in the last two weeks.

“Koalas are like babies; they crawl across the road like an eight-month old baby so all people need to do is slow down in those Koala Zones,” she said.

“It’s so sad that people can’t take the time to slow down and look out for our endangered iconic species when it only takes - we did some tests and it only takes an extra 30 seconds to drive at the right speed limit through the Koala Zone.

“It comes down to the question of whether we still want koalas in the wild or do we just want them in the zoo.”

Ms Hayes said there were between 50 to 250 Tweed Coast koalas left who are officially endangered.

“The numbers are at a critical level and the number one issue is habitat fragmentation and fires but then we have dogs, cars - especially speeding cars - and disease so they have everything against them but the thing that we can most prevent is car deaths,” Ms Hayes said.

“There are so many measures that we can do to help prevent koala deaths and this is one of the easiest. Our koalas are in crisis, they are hanging on by a thread so please, just slow down.”

Tw e e d S h i r e C o u n c i l S e n i o r Program Leader of Biodiversity Scott Hetherington told The Weekly that the Tweed - Brunswick area has one of three koala populations identified as endangered in NSW. “Koalas as a whole are all considered vulnerable but what’s different here is that the coastal population is isolated by the Tweed and Brunswick Rivers and the highway,” Mr Hetherington said.

“Within that area they face a whole range of threats such as cars, disease, bushfires and habitat fragmentation from

A mature male koala was also killed by a car recently on the Tweed

Update on Cudgen site vandalism

NSW POLICE media have confirmed that Tweed Police are currently investigating a malicious damage and theft that took place at the proposed Tweed Valley Hospital site at Cudgen recently.

past habitat loss for cane farming and urban development.

“Before the highway was built Clothiers Creek Road was used by about 1200 vehicles a day but since the highway interchange has been installed and the population has grown there are more than 2500 vehicles a day, so it’s nearly doubled.

Mr Hetherington said Council had monitored traffic speeds before the Koala Zone was installed in 2015 and there has been an increase of around 12 per cent of drivers driving below limit.

“Before we did anything there about 75 per cent were travelling above the limit and since that zone and signage was put in around 2014 it’s down to about 60 per cent,” he said.

“For all the same reasons we want people to slow down for kolas we want them to slow down for humans.

“The speed limits have been set to keep people safe and one of the slogans local school kids came up with was, it’s good for people and good for koalas.”

Monitoring sewer flows Council contractors this week began monitoring the flow of sewage within Murwillumbah’s sewer system to help plan for future repairs and improvements to the system.

Contractors from ADS Environmental Services are inserting flow and level sensor monitoring equipment in sewer manholes and pipes at various locations around the town to determine the capacity and performance of the system.

During the study, which will continue through to April next year, they will need to visit each testing site at least three times to insert, monitor and recalibrate equipment if necessary.

Sewage flow and rainfall data collected, together with hydraulic modelling, will be used to help plan system rehabilitation and improvement works.

The contractors will be working near, and at times within, private property to access manholes and pipes. When they need to enter a private yard, they will contact the residents in advance. At no time will they need access to any house or building.

There will be no disruptions to the sewer system during the monitoring period.

Anyone wanting more information can contact Engineer Simone Gillespie by calling Council on (02) 6670 2400.

Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers and homeless support groups You Have a Friend and Fred’s Place need your help this Christmas and New Year. You can support them through the Mayoral Christmas Appeal.

Please give generously at Christmas The annual Mayoral Christmas Appeal is now open to assist those in need, including injured wildlife.

There are three charities to support this year: Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers and homeless support groups You Have a Friend and Fred’s Place.

Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers rescue and rehabilitate native fauna for return to their natural environment as well as advocating for conservation and welfare of our local wildlife.

This year they received more than 3600 calls, rescued some 2300 animals and released around 1000 animals back into their natural environment.

Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers urgently needs: towels (old or new), pillow cases, hot water bottles, old beanies and puppy training pads.

Fred’s Place, a St Vincent de Paul Society facility located in Tweed Heads, offers support services for people who are experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness.

You Have a Friend supports the homeless, marginalised and single parents and their children, providing 300 meals a week on

the streets in the Tweed area and Coolangatta.

According to Australian Bureau of Statistics data, on any given night, one in every 200 people are homeless. In NSW, this equates to 105,237 people or 40.8 per 10,000 people.

You Have a Friend and Fred’s Place need non-perishable foods, toiletries, coffee/tea, sugar, long-life milk, cordial, ring pull cans, instant noodle cups and simple first aid products.

Items for Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers and You Have a Friend can be dropped off to the Murwillumbah Council office in Tumbulgum Road.

The Tweed Heads Council office in Brett Street is accepting items for Fred’s Place and Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers. All donations will be accepted until the end of January 2019.

Anyone wishing to make monetary donations is asked to contact the agencies directly: Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers – www.tvwc.org.au or call (02) 6672 4789; You Have a Friend – www.youhaveafriend.com.au/sponsorship or call (07) 5524 2008; Fred’s Place – call (07) 5536 1906.

Orders of the day The new reservoir taking shape at Chambers Lookout.

New water reservoir for Banora Point Construction of a new water reservoir at Banora Point is nearing completion.

Council contractor Stirloch Constructions is due to complete the build of the new three-megalitre concrete reservoir in January, after starting in March 2018.

The reservoir has been built near the existing reservoir at Chambers Lookout, named after the inaugural President of the Tweed and Northern NSW Avocado Growers Association, Pat Chambers.

The new reservoir has 350mm thick walls, is seven metres tall and 25 metres round. It comprises 60 tonne of reinforcing steel and 273 cubic metres of reinforced concrete.

The new reservoir will provide additional supply capacity for the current and future developments planned for the area, catering for the projected population growth as new houses are occupied.

Local developers contributed towards the $2.2 million cost of the project.

Video flooded with views Auditorium closes for upgrade More than 13,300 people have viewed Council’s video When the Levee Breaks – A 500-year ARI Flood in Murwillumbah CBD, with about 600 viewers reacting to it on Facebook with a comment, like or share.

The one-minute video shows how a large flood like this would unfold and what would happen after water overtops the main levee protecting the town. A flood of this size could have happened had the rainfall in March 2017 kept on for only a few more hours.

Hundreds of viewers clicked through to the State Emergency Service (SES) page on how to make a home emergency plan.

“It’s great that this video has reached such a large number of people and that we keep flooding issues in the public interest, but what’s important is that they act on the take-home message and make their home emergency plan now,” Council Chair of the Murwillumbah Floodplain Management Committee Danny Rose said.

“We are now in storm season and everyone should have a plan on what to do in an emergency.”

See the video online on Council’s YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAKEtZtWngc&t=57s

The final stage of the Tweed Heads Civic and Cultural Centre Administration Building redevelopment is about to get underway.

The Auditorium will be closed from 1 January to 16 March 2019 to undertake the works and no bookings are being taken from 1 January to 30 March 2019.

The project will include: • a technical upgrade to the Auditorium – commencing January 2019 • universal access to the main entrance of both the Tweed Heads Administration Building and the Cultural Centre (Library and Auditorium) – 2019 • establishment of a Social Enterprise Café – 2019 The technical upgrade will include updating sound and lighting equipment, installing fire safe stage curtains, installing an audio loop, completing structural upgrades to address load bearing for the stage lighting.

The redevelopment project is part funded by the Australian Government through the Building Better Regions Fund.

Don’t waste Christmas

Koala death a reminder

Council Christmas closures

Christmas is a time of giving, sharing and creating memories with family and friends. It’s also the time of year we tend to go a little overboard; buying gifts, food and other festive items we didn’t really need or that were bought purely for the purpose of ‘having something to give’.

According to the 2017 Choosi Clutter Report, the average Australian household spends around $963 a year on gifts for friends and family during the festive season and admits to receiving around $620 worth of gifts that are no longer used, returned or re-gifted, or end up in landfill.

Add to that the $4,000 worth of edible food thrown away by each NSW household every year, with the holiday season being one of the most wasteful times, and there is even more financial incentive to reduce your festive footprint.

It’s not only about the money spent on unwanted gifts or uneaten food though – the pressure on our environment increases dramatically during this time with the amount of waste generated.

On average, our waste increases 30 per cent during the ‘silly season’ with wrapping paper, packaging, and uneaten food being the main offenders.

So if you’re feeling a little anxious about completing the Christmas shopping, before joining the mad rush take a moment to consider your options for a waste-wise Christmas and reduce your festive footprint.

Last Thursday night a female koala was hit by a vehicle and killed in the Koala Zone on Clothiers Creek Road.

The loss of one koala, especially a healthy adult female, is highly significant for the endangered Tweed Coast koala population.

It’s also a tragic reminder to reduce your speed and take greater care when driving through koala habitat.

Although there’s been an improvement since Council introduced the Koala Zone, our monitoring shows that still more than half of drivers are breaking the speed limit (set at 70kph or 50kph closer to Cabarita).

If you spot a sick or injured koala please call the 24-hour rescue hotline on (02) 6622 1233.

Early closure 13 December

Christmas closure

Council offices at Murwillumbah and Tweed Heads will be closed over the Christmas and New Year period from Monday 24 December 2018 to Tuesday 1 January 2019. The offices will reopen again at 8.30am on Wednesday 2 January 2019.

For Council emergencies only during this time please call 1800 818 326.

Tweed Shire Council wishes you a safe and happy festive holiday season.

Resident and Ratepayer Association meetings

Make a list and check it twice When purchasing ask yourself – is this item wanted or needed?

Can I avoid waste with this item choice (e.g. packaging), or re-use/ recycle the waste that comes from it?

Plan to keep every step of your shopping experience waste-wise by using re-useable shopping bags, re-useable cloth or mesh fruit and vegetable bags and choosing items with either no packaging or packaging that’s recyclable or compostable.

Presents: • Opt for experiences over stuff (e.g. movie tickets, restuarant vouchers, memberships and annual passes) • Upcycle, repair and re-gift • Choose an item you really need that friends and family can contribute towards • Make a charitable donation in lieu of gifts • Buy second-hand • Organise a ‘secret Santa’ • Set a spend limit for each person • Send e-cards or social media greetings rather than Christmas cards Food and drinks: • Make a list and stick with it • Use what you already have or meal plan around these items • Buy locally and the freshest available so it lasts longer • Think of meal portions per guest when planning how much food to have on the day • Let guests know whether they can bring food and what to bring • Correctly store and use leftovers – slice up the leftover ham or turkey and freeze into easy portion sizes for future sandwiches, frittatas and salads • While disposable plates, cups and cutlery are tempting – think of the waste, use re-usable.

Read more about these tips and leftover storage or creative recipe ideas at www.lovefoodhatewaste.nsw.gov.au/festive and www.lovefoodhatewaste.vic.gov.au/Blog Decorations: • Have some fun making your own this year from recyclables or natural items. Check out greenglobaltravel.com/recycledchristmas-decorations-homemade-gifts for inspiration Gift wrapping: • Use Christmas stockings or sacks rather than wrapping paper • Make your own wrapping paper (e.g. use children’s artwork) • Re-use bags or Christmas wrap from previous years • Avoid using wrapping paper that cannot be recycled such as foil or plastic coated paper Post Christmas wrap-up: • Recycle Right through your yellow-lid bin. Find out more at www.newaste.org.au/recycleright • Compost unedible foodwaste through your green-lid organics bin or home composting.

• Donate any unwanted items to charity or re-gift/sell Just remember – we can still keep that festive cheer without Christmas being ‘the most waste-ful time of the year’.

By Jonathon Howard AS CAMPAIGNING for the March 2019 State Government election gets underway this month, many local candidates are putting their campaign commitments down on paper in order to give voters plenty of notice prior to the March 2019 election.

The Weekly spoke with several candidates this week including Labor member for the seat of Lismore Janelle Saffin.

A former Federal Member and lawyer, Ms Saffin is no stranger to politics and said her campaign commitments are built on four pillars.

“Those four pillars are education, health and hospitals; easing the cost of living; jobs and sustainable development,” she said.

“My most important priority, if you elect me as your local State Member, is to listen, to lead, and to act to get things done.”

Mrs Saffin said she has a track record in delivering for the communities she represents and has pledged to halt cuts to local frontline services “that have cut a swathe through Murwillumbah and the Tweed Valley.”

“TAFE gutted of teachers, students and courses; Murwillumbah Hospital no patient to nurse ratios and no security when needed; Community Health inappropriately relocated; Tweed Valley Women’s Service gone; Murwillumbah Court House left with a skeleton staff; no 24/7 Police presence; Firearms Registry jobs uncertainty; no adequate flood protection works; National Parks staff decimated; Land services in a mess and DPI extension services to farmers all but gone,” she said.

“These cruel cuts weaken our local economy and add to the cost of living pressures.”

She said she also has a focus on delivering “Fair Funding” for all our schools and colleges to ensure that no child is deprived of opportunity.

“TAFE will be rebuilt as so much depends on a strong TAFE - young people getting vocational education, getting jobs, all ages upskilling and retraining,” she said.

“I will work to deliver Labor’s Patient to Nurse Ratios pledge and additional security staff.

“Murwillumbah Hospital will get its fair share and security for its future.”

Mrs Saffin said she also hope to address areas she said have “long been neglected”.

“I shall attend to the things that have long been neglected,” she said. “The list is formidable.

“Here are but some, stop the cuts to frontline services first, re-regulation of the electricity sector to control and cap prices, environmental protection so that we maintain what is unique about our area, clean water, water security and protection for aquifers is a must.

“If that means no more water extraction (mining) licences granted, then so be it.

“Action on climate change including transition to renewables.

“Ensure that CSG never raises its head again and flood protection and mitigation.”

Mrs Saffin said she wants to work closely with Chambers of Commerce, Local Government and other stakeholders to ensure that local CBDs, including Murwillumbah’s thrives.

“Our CBDs in this region have a long history of serving our communities,” she said.

“They promote jobs and thus community well-being.

“There are many issues to be addressed if we are to ensure that prosperity for our CBDs continues to grow.

“I commit to address them with you and advocate fearlessly for them in Sydney.

“These are things that I can get done and deliver on, being a member of a party that can govern.

“The Nationals haven’t and won’t deliver these or they would have done so before.

Minor Parties can’t.”

By Megan Albany A COBAKI resident whose dog was shot dead on Sunday, November 11, has said they are still no closer to finding the person responsible for the senseless killing.

In a statement to the Tweed Valley Weekly, Robin Holman said her dog, Caramel, a female neutered Australian Kelpie, had never caused an issue in the close knit community and that she remains at a loss as to why anyone would want to kill her pet.

“She was known and loved by everyone in the area and it came as a complete shock that something like this would happen in our valley and to a beloved pet,” Ms Holman said.

“She was both human and dog friendly and was raised around livestock, horses and chickens and was never a problem.”

While Ms Holman said she had heard reports from local residents that other dogs and cats have been killed in what appeared to be deliberate ‘hit and run’ situations, police have yet to receive information regarding other domestic animal shootings.

Tweed Byron Police District Chief Inspector, Luke Arthurs, said police have investigated the matter as far as is possible and that they are now are relying on new information being brought to hand from the public to further progress the matter.

“Police have been unable to identify any witnesses,” Chief Inspector Arthurs said.

“We are calling on anyone who knows anything about this incident to contact police.”

Ms Holman said she has even offered a cash reward to anyone with information but so far no one has been able to provide further information.

“While my family and friends are heartbroken about Caramel, we are also seriously concerned that there is someone using our family companions as target practice,” Ms Holman said.

Chief Inspector Arthurs said anyone who feels they have information regarding the incident should contact the police.

“We are seeking anyone with information of suspicious behaviour or persons in the area, or anyone that witnessed or heard anything to come forward,” Chief Inspector Arthurs said.

Ms Holman said that she is still shaken by the incident especially as the shooter has not yet been identified or apprehended.

“We feel legitimately concerned for our safety and the safety of our animals,” she said.

Police have reinforced that anyone with concerns about their safety are welcome to contact the police.

“If they’ve got any concerns then we would encourage them to ring the police - we’re here to help,” Chief Inspector Arthurs said.

Off Grid Forever!

Order before Christmas and We Will Pay the Full 2018 Rebate Price!

New Off Grid Solar Power Solutions advertisement

When Does It Make Sense to Go Off Grid Completely?

For the average 6 kW solar system that amounts to paying about $400 more if your new solar system is not installed before December 31st.

All the solar installers are now pretty much booked out for installation before Christmas. You won't get it installed in time to claim the 2018 rebate price.

Don't stress though. 888 Solar Tek will honour the 2018 rebate price on any residential solar system ORDERED before Christmas, regardless of when it gets installed. Lock in lower power bills now and pay for next Christmas with the savings.

How much is the rebate going to be in 2019?

For a solar system with 6.6 kW of panels you will receive a discount of approx. $3,488 off the price of a new solar system.

Can the Government get rid of the rebate?

Yes. The current Federal Government can kill off the solar rebate at any time, instead of phasing it out over the next 12 years as intended.

I get asked by a lot people about whether it is feasible to go off grid. It does cost a lot more upfront, but most systems will pay for themselves in about 8-10 years. Apart from the financial considerations, there are many compelling reasons why we can’t afford to stay on the grid and burn more coal and gas.

Do you have a small house, cabin or shed that needs a lowcost power system? 888 Solar Tek have scalable off grid solar systems that provide reliable power for small or large houses so you will never have a power bill again.

Whether you need power for a few lights, computer and small fridge or a larger system to light up your world, 888 Solar Tek are the off grid experts who can make it happen now.

Humans are facing the largest crisis ever which will destroy human civilisation as we know it.

With threats like climate change, deforestation and mass extinction caused by unsustainable human population growth, the natural systems that provide water, air and food are breaking down fast.

Need to upgrade your old off grid solar system? We supply and install batteries, generators, solar panels, charge controllers and inverters and work with you to integrate new and old technology into a kick-ass power plant.

888 Solar Tek are at the fore-front of the off grid revolution. Products like the new Victron Easy Solar off grid system, which combines an inverter/charger, Solar charge controller and AC distribution board in one smart device are making it cheaper and easier to go off grid now.

Most people are too overwhelmed by the daily pressures of surviving on diminishing wages, the rising cost of food, energy and housing. They don’t have the capacity to even think about these The Victron Control system communicates to phone, tablet and computer larger issues that will roll over us like a train in the to give instant access to critical battery levels and history. With three different sizes it is ideal for tiny to larger households to make your energy next few decades.

However, there are things you can do to reverse independence dream affordable today.

Too HOT?

the damage. You can plant more trees, switch to a plant based diet, grow your own vegetables and fruit, use rainwater and generate and store your own solar power. We can help each other to live more sustainably now.

Power your Air Con for FREE with Solar Power

Summer is the perfect time to cash in on the free power that your solar system can generate. On the hottest days you generate the most solar electricity to cool your house like a fridge with your efficient, inverter air conditioning. Don’t suffer the heat to save money on power bills. Install a new solar system now and enjoy the comfort with your family. You can also run your pool all day on solar and save heaps on making the water crystal clear.

888 Solar Tek are the off grid solar technology experts. We have helped hundreds of people to empower their lives and make the transition to off grid solar power. We love embracing new off grid technologies which make solar power cheaper and more efficient. We give you free onsite training and support for 12 months after installation. We will also help you set up your monitoring and give you free phone support for life.

We’re local and we care about nature. Living a solar lifestyle is a great feeling and we are helping to empower more people to go off grid in the Northern Rivers now.

Lend a helping hand to homeless this Christmas

By Jo Kennett A POTTSVILLE woman is asking the community to think of others doing it tough this Christmas and to donate gifts for the Tweed Coast’s growing homeless population.

Nikki Fortune said there are around 45,000 people sleeping rough between the lower Gold Coast and Lismore area including families, flood victims and many elderly people.

“It’s important to remember that homeless people are not poor, reckless human beings - nobody wakes up and considers going to live on the street or in the bushes and no child should ever have to, but they do,” she said.

“Many have reached the point of rough sleeping because of our economy and the very short supply of housing.

“High rent and property prices have crippled people financially and floods, family disputes and losing spouses or mental health issues have put people where they are today.”

Mrs Fortune said she has been taking supplies to anywhere between 15 and 100 rough sleepers each week for the last two years.

“I also see 15 homeless families between Pottsville and Chinderah each week and some people I see daily as they may be unwell and have no transport to get to a social worker or doctor,” she said.

“I deliver practical help - I never counsel anyone I just deliver practical solutions like food, clothing, shelter and transport.”

Mrs Fortune began visiting areas where she knew people were camped and slowly won the trust of the rough sleepers, many who are victims of the 2017 floods. “ Wh e n t h e f l o o d s w i p e d o u t t h e G r e e n h i l l s C a r av a n P a r k (Murwillumbah) and places like

Chinderah and Burringbar, many of those people lost everything and had nothing left and nowhere to go,” she said.

“While there was immediate relief given there was no long-term solution.

“22 months down the track flood victims have now become a statistic of rough sleepers - most of them are living on the streets or on the coast in cars or tents.”

Mrs Fortune said that while there were “wonderful amenities and organisations helping out” in the shire many rough sleepers wanted to remain anonymous.

“My first point of reference is the community centre to connect them with the appropriate facilitators and counsellor,” she said.

“However, many are suffering serious depression and want to stay anonymous,” she said.

“They face daily dangers of bug bites, snakes and robbery and one homeless man had his tent set alight by drug addicts while he was in it and his feet were badly burnt - he already had pneumonia - and it was very sad.”

The Pottsville mother has never forgotten her own experience with homelessness.

“As a mother with two small children I was homeless for ten days after a marriage breakup and I can really empathise with the needs of these people,” she said.

“I was lucky because my family came to my rescue but these people don’t have that and if they do have family they are far away and are often not in touch with them.

“The majority of people I see in the local area are elderly, about 80 percent, are over 65.”

Mrs Fortune said that most of the donations she received were from the Pottsville community and her church.

Nikki Fortune

“The community has been wonderful and my church is very supportive and constantly helping but there is no bible bashing involved - that has never entered into this as that’s not what this is about,” she said.

“I don’t want people to feel judged or that I have any ulterior motive.

“There shouldn’t be a stigma attached to homelessness.”

Mrs Fortune said with Christmas around the corner a healthy meal would make a big difference as she has noticed many of the long-term coastal dwellers getting thin.

“Tins of fish, breakfast drinks, oranges, crackers, tins of healthy carb pulses can go a long way in a hamper along with a toothbrush, sunscreen, bug spray, stop itch, first aid items, hand sanitiser and a pamper food would all be welcome,” she said.

“I won’t be able to thank anyone personally for their help but I am so grateful and so are these people.

“They cry when I bring them anything, even the smallest thing.”

People are asked leave donations at 7 Coucal St, Pottsville (on the driveway near the letterbox or near the garage).

Book your installation now to secure the higher solar rebate

S

IF you’re considering solar, the time to act is now. Under the federal government’s Renewable Energy Target scheme, the rebate is set to decrease by approximately $300, based on a 6.6 kW system on December 31st. That’s a serious saving not to be sneezed at.

To secure the current STC rebate, it’s important to know your solar system must be installed and operational before December 31st, taking into account that solar just doesn’t happen overnight. Once we’ve sized a system that is right for you, and you’ve signed your contract, its then over to the supply authority to apply for a grid connect, before installation can commence, so don’t delay. ACT NOW and save yourself some serious money before the December 31st deadline.

Understanding the federal STC rebate The federal government currently offers a financial incentive designed to encourage Australian homes, businesses and community groups to take up solar in a bid to meet our renewable energy target by 2030. This incentive comes in the form of an STC (small scale technology certificate) which is an upfront saving applied directly to the solar system at the time of installation. As the end user, you do not need to pay upfront or claim any money back, you are not out of pocket.

The current STC calculation will reduce again at the end of the year and will do so each year until it is phased out in 2030, so if you’ve been considering solar, now is the time to maximise your upfront savings.

Limited installations available SAE Group are working hard to install as many customers as possible before the December 31st deadline. With such high demand we have just 50 installation opportunities available between now and the deadline for installation. Secure yours today.

SAE Group are a Clean Energy Council Approved Solar Retailer, who are committed to raising the bar in the solar industry. The team at SAE Group are Master Electricians first and foremost, so you can also rest easy knowing you’re dealing with highly experienced, qualified staff. From consultation, to quality installation, and after sales service, we are with you the whole way, and offer a 12-year workmanship warranty with every installation.

We are genuinely passionate about the benefits of quality energy solutions designed to deliver you real savings. If you’re ready to take control of your energy future, and you’re looking for honest, trustworthy advice from your local energy contractor, call SAE Group today on 1300 18 20 50.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Help needed for local families during Christmas A TWEED SHIRE Christmas is a time for giving and receiving love and gifts, for sharing meals and companionship with family members and friends.

Yet many local families and individuals are so stretched to cover basic needs that gift giving becomes a low priority.

This leaves many people feeling vulnerable and isolated as they struggle to put food on the table or give their children a present.

“Most of us are fortunate enough to see Christmas as a time to relax, take a break from our normal demands, kick up our heels and enjoy good food, perhaps a few drinks, and the company of friends,” St Vincent de Paul Society’s North Coast president Yvonne Wynen said.

“But it’s a different scenario for thousands of North Coast households,

and homeless people, who are struggling to buy food, let alone festive goodies, and to cover essentials like rent and electricity, clothes for their kids, and more.”

Ms Wynen said that’s where Vinnies comes in, with the annual Christmas Appeal aimed at helping all families have a secure and enjoyable Christmas with their children, relatives and friends.

“Sharing our joy by donating to the Vinnies Christmas Appeal is a tangible way of helping others enjoy some of our good fortune, to contribute to their wellbeing at this special time of year and help family unity,” she said.

“It also gives you the satisfaction of knowing that your family has played an active role in the happiness of others in our community, even if you never get to meet them.”

Ms Wynen referred to figures showing that more than 80,000 people between Tweed Heads and Port Macquarie are experiencing poverty, with a further 38,500 being at risk of it.

In addition, a high number of households experience rental stress, defined as one-third of total income being spent on rent.

“Even for employed people, financial hardship can be just a few pays away,” Yvonne Wynen said.

Money donated to the Vinnies Christmas Appeal on the North Coast will be used to help local families.

Donations are tax deductible and can be made at any of the Vinnies shops between or by calling the Lismore office on (02) 6621 5835.

Concern over sinkage at Fingal bridge

By Jo Kennett A BRIDGE built on Fingal Road next to the Tweed River in 2016 has sunk at one end leaving the road surface with a pronounced lip and causing concern among Fingal residents.

Tweed Shire Council has undertaken some works to patch the drop-off on the east lane of the bridge and more work will be undertaken however, a local resident who didn’t want to be named said the original cause of the sinkage needed to be addressed.

“I stopped and had a look this morning and one corner of the bridge has sunk by about 35- 40 mm and you can see the crack where the two parts have separated,” he said on Monday, December 10.

“The bridge is rigid so it’s sunk on one side and lifted on the other.

“They were supposed to replace the culvert or the pipes when they upgraded the road about ten years ago but they didn’t do the pipe and ever since then they have been coming and repairing it and then they replaced it and now it’s sinking as well so they need to find out what has been causing all the sinkage over the years.”

The resident said that Council workers were doing repair work on the bridge on Tuesday, December 4 and had marked out the other side of the bridge where the lip is to do more repairs.

“They were there fixing it and they drilled down through the concrete and pumped stuff into it to lift it up,” he said.

“One end is 40 millimetres higher than the other - there is a lip on the road surface on the end of the bridge.

“Someone said Council was there earlier as well trying to repair it to level out the road so you wouldn’t drive over a lip on the road but it looks like a temporary repair and it actually dips on the bridge as well.”

The $600,000 bridge was built to replace the failing pipe culverts near Wommin Lake Crescent and included works to replace a sewer main, water main and a pedestrian bridge.

The replacement of the pipes was designed to address a problem with a lack of flushing in Wommin Lake to improve water quality in the lagoon and to address the problem with the pipes sinking.

“When they finished building the bridge they put two larger culvert pipes which allowed more water to go into Wommin Lake.” the man said.

“That caused people’s backyards to fill up higher on a big high tide and flood further into their backyards,” he said.

“There are people that own 16 acres that adjoins Wommin Lake which is zoned environmentally protected wetlands under the NSW State Environment Planning Policy (SEPP) - it’s all mangroves but the water flooded into the bush there and killed a lot of the trees that weren’t used to the salt water.”

The resident, who worked for many year in irrigation, said that Council put large rocks beside the bridge to restrict the flow into the lake.

“I think maybe the sand underneath is being dragged away from under the foundation with the tide,” he said.

“It’s only about four foot down to the water table on Fingal Rd because this land was all reclaimed and used to be in the middle of the river - and it’s tidal - it goes up and down anywhere up to 30cm with a big tide.”

The resident said that a lot of people came across the bridge with boats to access the boat ramp.

“Every time a boat comes in the residents get annoyed because it goes, bang.”

A Council spokesperson said that Council was “aware of the unexpected problem and has been monitoring for some time using survey marks to see if the issue progresses”.

“A structural foam has been injected under the bridge abutment to strengthen the underlying soil,” the spokesperson said.

“Asphalt patching is to be carried out to remove the undulations.

“If the situation worsens, further work will need to be carried out.”

Sue hits the streets to campaign for Lismore seat Tweed Heads raises funds

By Jonathon Howard

GREEN PARTY candidate for the state seat of Lismore Sue Higginson has been busy door knocking and campaigning across the electorate including in Murwillumbah recently.

A local farmer, grandmother and public interest environmental lawyer, Ms Higginson has a passion for the Northern Rivers and said she wants to “protect it and work with communities to create a fair and healthy future for us all”.

“Especially our kids and their kids,” she said.

“As a public interest environmental lawyer, CEO and Principal Solicitor for the Environmental Defenders Office, I have devoted much of my life to fighting for regional communities under threat.

“In court, I have taken on giants like Rio Tinto and Adani and won.

“I have seen firsthand how the system currently works to privilege big corporate interests that take unfair advantage of our communities and our environment.”

affordability, efficiency, sustainability and tourism opportunity and including trains, light rail, electric buses, car sharing, cycleways and walkways,” she said.

She also has a passionate approach to agriculture and believes the Northern Rivers could one day become a pinnacle food hub.

“As a commercial dryland rice farmer, I am passionate about agriculture,” she said.

“I will work on the Northern Rivers being a vibrant sustainable regional food hub. Because of our resilient landscape (good rainfall, fertile soils and sub-tropical miro-climates) the Northern Rivers stands to be a state significant food bowl of the future.

“We ought to invest now in the infrastructure and support to make this happen now.

“Securing our highly productive farmlands now and allocating them to highest best use will see massive returns in terms of sustainable jobs and whole of community wellbeing.”

She has also expressed a need to address the rising issue of homelessness across the Northern Rivers.

“It’s time that everyone had a home,” she said.

“Nobody in the Northern Rivers needs to be without a home and as a planning law expert I understand housing.

“I will prioritise looking at innovative ways of housing provision and removing the barriers, so people do not have to sleep rough anymore.”

“I am seeking to be your local member so that I can take my knowledge, expertise and passion for this place to the NSW Parliament and be a strong voice for you and our region.”

for breast cancer screening

TWEED HEADS community members have raised $3,200 in donations for breast cancer screening.

Members of the Tweed District Tuesday Tennis Ladies raised $1,600 for the Tweed Heads BreastScreen Unit and Lou Lyston, Owner of DermElite, a local small business matched their contribution.

“The donated money will be used to create a relaxing, quiet and calming space in the BreastScreen unit for the women to enjoy,” BreastScreen NSW North Coast Director Jane Walsh said.

The tennis enthusiasts have generously been donating to the Tweed BreastScreen Unit on a regular basis over many years.

“Our sincere thanks to both the Tuesday Tennis Ladies and Lou Lyston for helping make our local BreastScreen service a more welcoming place for women to visit,” Mrs Walsh said.

Sue Higginson

Ms Higginson said “it’s time to clean up politics”.

“I am tired of seeing our politicians working for big corporations rather than for our communities and local businesses,” she said.

“The Greens are the only major party with seats in every parliament across Australia that does not accept corporate donations.

“Here in our region we need to remove the barriers that are stopping innovation and start investing properly in our region’s natural assets so that we can all enjoy a good life.

“We have good rainfall, mighty rivers, fertile soils and world class forests and biodiversity, which makes the Northern Rivers a place like no other.

“We can be a 100 per cent renewable energy reliant region, with a big focus on community owned energy generation, storage and supply.

“It is the inevitable - so let’s get on with it now and unleash the innovative renewable economy and sustainable jobs that this will create.

“The Northern Rivers is already leading the way on this front, with the right investment we can achieve this.”

Ms Higginson said she wants to see the restoration of river systems.

“Through investing in the health of our environment we can generate significant new opportunities around sustainable tourism as it is growing rapidly through the region,” she said.

“We have already launched our Action Plan to Revive the Richmond River.”

Ms Higginson also has a focus on developing a world class comprehensive public transport system that connects communities.

“The transport system I will work for will be based on the principles of safety,

“There isn’t room at Kingscliff so that’s why the Department of Education is enforcing the zones,” he said.

“The problem is there are so many parents working over the border and fighting for out-of-zone placings but there is no NSW government funding for those places.

“There are issues at Bogangar Public School but even if she went to there we can’t get her to after-school care.”

Mr O’Brien said they looked like being forced to put their daughter into a private school.

“That will cost more than $3,000 a year at so that she can get to her after-school care,” he said.

“It’s put us in a very tight position and will put us under financial stress.

“It’s a pretty common problem.”

Mr O’Brien said the government needed more out-of-zone funding in NSW. “Development is increasing and there is much more planned so more and more people will be put in the same situation,” he said.

“It’s a problem that will have to be dealt with or else it will cause so much financial stress and it’s only going to get worse as the population grows.

“There isn’t enough work in the Northern Rivers so people have to go to the Gold Coast to get work.”

“Look at Bogangar Public School - they built a brand new school nine years ago and before it opened they had to put demountables in to house the students.”

Country Labor candidate for Tweed Mr Craig Elliot said Tweed Nationals MP Geoff Provest should call the Education Minister.

“It is totally unacceptable that an MP should abandon his constituents – especially those facing cost of living pressures associated with long day care,” he told The Weekly.

“Families are doing it tough and they need an MP in their corner fighting for them. You might not win every battle, but you owe it to your constituents to fight for them.”

Mr Provest was unable to comment before the print deadline.

Australian Bay Lobster Producers Ltd

Husbandry Technicians Required.

WITH CHRISTMAS approaching rescue animal workers are asking the public to think twice about giving pets for Christmas.

Pottsville’s Paul Horwath runs The Dogfather Rescue and works with Tweed Shire Council, Friends of the Pound and Redgate Refuge to rehome pets.

“If parents and children are serious about the responsibility of pet owning and want to get a pet then get a rescue animal,” Paul said.

“Christmas is a good time to get a rescue animal because everyone is at home and they can be around the animal as it settles in.

“It gives them a chance to get used to the family and surroundings before they go back to school and work.”

Dog Coordinator for Friends of the Pound Pam Price said people need the responsibilities that come with pet ownership.

“There are vet bills, preventative medications and families need to consider what they will do with pets if they go away on holidays,” she said.

“Every year after Christmas young dogs are surrendered to pounds because they lack training and have become difficult to handle - through no fault of their own.

“Companion animals are totally dependent on their owners to take care of them and deserve to be respected and loved as members of the family - then they will reward their owners with unconditional love till their last breath.”

Dogfather Rescue dogs cost $350 and are desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, fleatreated, vet-checked and wormed. Phone Paul on 0429 509 334 https://www.facebook.com/ pg/TheDogFatherRescue/posts/

MURWILLUMBAH SCHOOL students and locals gathered on the Murwillumbah Bridge last Friday, December 7, to welcome the world’s first Solar tuk-tuk.

The tuk-tuk visited the town as part of its round the world tour to highlight the benefits of solar-powered vehicles and their abilities.

Luckily there was only a brief shower as the solar electric vehicle pulled into town, ensuring that its lithium-ion batteries, sourced from a wrecked Tesla car, were continuously charging.

The tuk-tuk is a second-hand, threewheeled vehicle sourced from the tuk-tuk factory in Thailand. The tuk-tuk, also known as an auto-rickshaw, is well known by travellers to cities in South-East Asia as being noisy and polluting.

Despite its far from green reputation however, the inventors of the solar vehicle show that with a little creative thinking, the tuk-tuk could not only become part of a sustainable transport future but could also be adapted for long-range travel.

The SolarTuk expedition visited the Tweed as part of a world-first journey across Australia involving outreach with schools and community groups which commenced on Saturday, November 24, in Melbourne.

The brainchild of Westpac Social Change Fellow Julian O’Shea and Arup renewable energy engineer Jack Clarke the expedition aims to highlight the impact of emissions from transport, a sector that, unlike electricity, they say has largely flown under the radar in Australian media and politics.

Organisers hope the SolarTuk Expedition will inspire businesses, communities and government to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by moving towards an electric transport system powered by renewable energy sources.

The tuk-tuk will complete a 3,000 km journey across the Australian continent, before embarking on an ambitious journey to circumnavigate the globe powered by the sun.

Capable of holding one driver and up to four passengers, the tuk-tuk uses photovoltaic solar panels and has a maximum speed of 50 kilometres per hour and can travel 300 kilometres before it needs recharging.

After visiting Murwillumbah, the tuktuk crew posted that their visit to the town, hosted by the Northern Rivers Guardians and the New Leaf Cafe, ‘was probably one of the best mornings on the trip so far’.

Murwillumbah ladies over 100 and still loving life Organisations share in

community grant funding

By Megan Albany

STELLA WILKIE 103, Kathleen Westall 102 and Florence Taylor 101, all agree that age is no barrier when it comes to enjoying life to the fullest.

Opal Aged Care Lifestyle Coordinator Wendy Nelson said the three women were all very active participants in the centre’s activities and outings, even participating in activities that younger residents were unable to.

“They are all still very much enjoying their time. We have a bus that goes on outings every week to the cafe or somewhere in town and all of these ladies go on the outings,” Ms Nelson said.

The women, all residents of Opal Aged Care in Murwillumbah, were all living independently prior to entering the facility at various stages in the last five years.

Despite being over one hundred, Kathleen Westall said that age is not an issue when it comes to having a good quality of life.

“We don’t feel our age, we just keep going and enjoying life - why not,” laughed Ms Westall.

Born in 1916, Ms Westall said last week she enjoyed her first ever visit to the Tweed Regional Gallery and that there was still a lot to look forward to.

The 102 year old is continuing to explore new areas in the Tweed on daily outings with her baby brother who is aged 86.

Stella Wilkie, who turned 103 on Thursday December 6, said that she believes the key to living such a long life has been balancing being part healthy and part cheeky.

Ms Wilkie said that she owes her health to drinking milk.

“When you drink milk, it turns into bone,” Ms Wilkie said.

Kathleen Westall, Stella Wilkie and Florence Taylor

“You’ll find I am very strong and very cheeky!”

However it wasn’t always that way. Ms Wilkie said that when she was younger she cared too much about what other people thought about her, but these days she has wisened up.

“When I was little, people used to say that I was stupid and for a while I believed that because I thought I must be stupid if I let people say I am,” Ms Wilkie said with a cheeky smile.

“Now I know I am not stupid but actually that they were for saying that.”

A life and founding member of the Uki Garden Club, Ms Wilkie spent her life as an independent businesswoman and active community member.

“I’m the matriarch. Whatever I get involved in I get to be the boss,” laughed Ms Wilkie.

“I’ve had a great life and I’m still having one. On my birthday I will be 103 - not 103 days or 103 weeks but 103 years - I don’t do things by halves,” she laughed.

“I’m a bit amazed myself.”

The eldest of four siblings, Stella is the only surviving member of her family,

her youngest sister Hilda having passed away this year at age 93.

“I never had children of my own but my sister Hilda was born on my birthday when I was 11, so I always looked after her” she said.

Dressed in a guipure lace frock hand made for her by her sister, Ms Wilkie explained that the two sisters formed a strong bond as nurses during the war.

“When the second World War was on, we would go out and look for wounded people and bring them back as part of our work with the Red Cross,” she said.

A widow of twenty years, Ms Wilkie said regardless of what has happened throughout her life she has always made the most of it.

“I’ve always been an individual who knows what she wants and sees that she gets it,” Ms Wilkie said.

“After my husband died I did the things I wanted to do because I didn’t need to run after a man any more,” she laughed.

“I have travelled all over the world but New Zealand is my favourite place because that’s where I was born and lived most of my life.”

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

BNI Pinnacle celebrate 10 years and millions in referrals Hot classroom days numbered BNI PINNACLE Tweed Heads has recently celebrated 10 years of commitment to the local business community where they have generated more than $11 million in referrals during that time.

BNI Pinnacle Tweed Heads members come from a range of local businesses from trades to professional services and meet at the Tweed Heads Bowls Club to network, refer business and report their results every Friday morning.

There are currently more than 42 businesses involved in the weekly meetings and the chapter’s 10th anniversary was celebrated on Friday, November 30.

The Weekly was invited as a guest to the special anniversary meeting to gain a greater understanding of the BNI Pinnacle meetings and to mark the occasion with a group photo.

Editor Jonathon Howard said the BNI Pinnacle Tweed Heads chapter is an extremely close-knit team of local people who understand the needs of small businesses through referrals.

“It was a great experience to see the motivation and comradery behind the BNI Pinnacle Tweed Heads meeting,” Mr Howard said.

“Visitors are warmly welcomed and there were many new business members who said they have found their feet within a few weeks.”

BNI Pinnacle Tweed Heads President Sonya Lee said the 10-year anniversary marked a big milestone for the local chapter.

“It has been such a successful 10 years, we’ve managed to accumulate more than $11 million in referrals within our local business network, a huge effort and something we’re extremely proud of” she said.

“It’s just another reason why BNI Pinnacle is so important to local businesses around the Tweed Shire and we always welcome new members.”

Mrs Lee said business networks such as BNI, provide a vital connection to fellow local businesses.

“It’s a great way to not only get to know other businesses, but to reap the rewards from referrals,” she said.

“I’d like to encourage other local businesses to get involved with BNI Pinnacle to experience the benefits and learn from other business owners,” she said.

BNI Pinnacle works by gaining members across a range of sectors who are then committed to using each other’s services for their needs.

An annual cost is required to join and business owners and operators are encouraged to phone BNI Pinnacle on 0404 058 676 to find out more.

The BNI Pinnacle Tweed Heads team celebrated 10 years of successful business networking recently

THE DAYS of Tweed local kids sweating it out at their school desks while trying to learn are numbered, according to Member for Lismore, Thomas George, following the NSW Government’s announcement that five schools in Murwillumbah will receive air conditioning under the Cooler Classrooms program.

Member for Lismore Thomas George said thirty schools across the Lismore electorate were successful under the scheme.

“I’m pleased that schools in our local community, including Murwillumbah High School, Murwillumbah Public School, Uki Public School, Chillingham Public School and Wollumbin High School will benefit from the Cooler Classrooms Fund,” he said.

“This is part of the Government’s continued commitment to providing classrooms where our students and teachers can best succeed.

“During a Northern Rivers summer the temperature quite often reaches well over 30 degrees.

“This investment will ensure students are now able to learn in a comfortable environment.”

Education Minister Rob Stokes said more than 900 schools would be the first to receive funding under the NSW Liberals & Nationals Government’s record $500 million program, the largest investment of its kind in NSW history.

“Schools in areas that have an average maximum January temperature of 30 degrees or more will now automatically receive air conditioning in their classrooms and libraries,” Mr Stokes said.

Mr Stokes said the State Government was installing solar panels and ‘smart systems’ alongside the air conditioning units.

“So schools can offset their additional energy use and efficiently heat and cool their schools,” Mr Stokes said.

In addition to the hundreds of schools benefiting under the Cooler Classrooms program, air conditioning will be delivered in all new and upgraded schools under the Government’s record $6 billion school building program over the next four years.

The first round of applications took place throughout Term 3 this year.

School principals are encouraged to apply to the second round of the fund, which will open on Day 1 of Term 1 next year.

Support needed to help make Speed on Tweed 2019 a reality

By Jonathon Howard AN ENORMOUS effort is underway to see the return of the once iconic Festival of Speed on Tweed, with the clock ticking towards the deadline of September 2019 and a mountain of funding still needed to once again make the event a reality.

Once billed as one of Australia’s premium historic racing events, Speed on Tweed finished in 2010 and left behind a legacy begging to be revisited.

But as with many racing events the costs can be staggering and a group of committed locals and business owners have formed a committee to pool their expertise and bring the event back for a new generation to enjoy.

Ideas are now being put forward by the Tweed on Speed committee around ways to raise the muchneeded $200,000 to see the event become a reality in 2019.

The ideas so far include the development of sponsorship p a c k ag e s a n d a s o o n t o b e announced “Speed on Tweed 500” raffle.

Festival of Speed on Tweed features both historic and current racing cars around a central Murwillumbah circuit, which travels around the Sacred Heart Church and passes other icons such as Taylors Corner, over a total distance of 1.2km.

Among the biggest hurdles is the cost of setting up and breaking down the track with adequate safety barriers - which are required to meet strict safety guidelines.

It is the track that carries the biggest price tag with estimates of more than $200,000 needed each year for the event to be conducted.

The first of many public meetings for the revival of Speed on Tweed took place at the Murwillumbah Services Club events room on Tuesday, December 4, followed by a sponsorship committee meeting on Tuesday, December 11.

Speed on Tweed Committee chairman Tonny van’t Riet has expressed a range of positive first steps towards securing the funds.

But Mr van’t Riet also expressed the need to move quickly if the event is to become a reality with suggestions now ranging from a GoFundMe-style crowdfunding to a special raffle.

“We will need to have the funds in place by March 31 to allow enough time to inform competitors of the September 2019 event deadline,” Mr van’t Riet said.

“At this stage we are looking at around $200,000 minimum but have received initial pre-commitments from local businesses who would be prepared to provide some financial support.”

Festival of Speed on Tweed is back on the cards, but can it gain the support needed to overcome the financial hurdles

Among some of the challenges in gaining the funding is guaranteeing the event will run, something the committee is working hard to ensure.

Local tourism business owner and Speed on Tweed committee member Michael Simmons is helping to seek sponsorship dollars.

“We have some great ideas already in the pipeline and what’s needed now is a big launch into the

AUTOMOTIVE SUSPENSION & EXHAUST

community to get the money rolling in,” he said.

Committee secretary Mark Stockwell also brings a wealth of knowledge and has organised similar race events across the country.

Mr Stockwell said one of the biggest steps will be securing Confederation of Australian Motor Sport (CAMS) approval of the track.

“CAMS have their own criteria and standards required, but I am sure we will be able to get the event approved,” he said.

Mr Stockwell said Speed on Tweed would have no issue attracting the drivers and competitors.

“All we need to do is ensure we have the CAMS track approval in place and the drivers will show up,” he said.

Discover the magic of Egypt

The explorer in you will rejoice over what is arguably the biggest concentration of ancient wonders in the world.

Abu Simbel is made up of two massive rock temples originally carved out of the mountainside in the 13th century BC. They serve as a lasting monument to the king and his queen Nefertari. The complex was relocated in its entirety in 1968, following the creation of Lake Nasser. Between 1964 and 1968, the entire site was carefully cut into large blocks dismantled, lifted and reassembled in one of the greatest challenges of archaeological engineering in history.

The best way to experience all Egypt has to offer is with a Scenic Tour. They have smaller group sizes, with a maximum of 34 guests and is fully escorted by a handpicked Scenic Tour Director, expert Egyptologist and knowledgeable local guides.The exclusive Scenic

IT'S HARD to believe that another year is already coming to an end.

We’ve had a busy time at Tweed Shire Council over the past 12 months working with local communities to deliver services that sustainably enhance our region’s infrastructure and natural environment.

I would like to share just a few highlights from 2018.

We started the year with the opening of the new Tweed Heads Library after a major renovation that created more space and upgraded technology to meet future community needs. Another great community facility, The Tweed Regional Gallery and Margaret Olley Art Centre celebrated its 30th anniversary this year, a fantastic achievement.

Council has settled on 14.02 hectares of land as part of an unprecedented

Industrial Land Swap that will mitigate against climate change and build business resilience by enabling eligible businesses to move off the floodplain.

Weather permitting, Council will have largely completed all road repairs from the March 2017 flood by Christmas, a $28 million commitment involving some 1,500 projects.

We are also on track to save ratepayers more than $225,000 per year by selfgenerating an estimated 1,300 MWh/pa of solar power at Council facilities in the new year as part of the Renewable Energy Action Plan.

None of this could be achieved without support from our communities. I’d like to thank everyone who has worked together with us to make Tweed an even better place.

On behalf of Tweed Shire Council, I wish everyone a safe and happy holiday season.

Local News 39

messages from your local council and politicians Member for Tweed Geoff Provest

LAST WEEKEND I spent the day dressed in a big red suit with fake beard, hearing Christmas wishes from pet owners who brought pets of various kinds to see “Santa” at the annual Friends of the Pound photo fundraiser in Tweed Heads.

Yes, wearing a fluffy red suit in the heat does have its drawbacks but the smiles and excitement shown by children and adults alike make this event one of the highlights of the year.

Christmas can be inconvenient, expensive and very tiring, but it is a wonderful opportunity to put our differences aside and reach out to friends and family and to our wider community. Why not make this year one to remember – go and see the Christmas lights, join in with the Carols programs around Tweed and take time to give thanks for those we love and the life with which we are blessed.

I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year to come.

Member for Lismore Thomas George AS 2018 and my term draw to a close I want to thank you all for the privilege and honour of being your representative in the NSW Parliament.

With the disaster of Cyclone Debbie behind us, it has been a privilege to work with the community to help re-start the economy and support projects which have returned business confidence.

By having a voice in the NSW Government, we have managed to secure funding to redevelop local sports grounds, upgrade schools, roads and health services, all while protecting the region’s environment.

These investments have allowed Murwillumbah to get back on its feet, ready to take on the exciting times ahead.

This year I was particularly proud of the work which was done in conjunction with Tweed Shire Council on the Murwillumbah land-swap. I want to congratulate the Council and its staff for negotiating the deal. $3 million funding from the NSW Climate Change Fund has purchased flood free land where businesses from South Murwillumbah can relocate to.

Council is now calling for expressions of interest from operators looking to move

and I watch with interest as this program takes off.

On the Tweed there has been plenty of talk about hospitals this year.

Excitingly I was able to open the new renal-dialysis unit at the Murwillumbah Hospital, which reinforces the NSW Government’s commitment to keeping the hospital open and operating alongside the new Tweed Hospital.

Through our Government’s Stronger Country Communities Fund we have been able to support the arts through the establishment of The Gallery Down Town in Murwillumbah offers a unique new space to emerging artists, where they can create and exhibit their work in the centre of town.

Murwillumbah is a resilient community and every time I visit it amazes me how busy the streets and businesses are.

This Christmas I urge everyone to do their bit and support the economy by shopping locally.

My office will be closed from Saturday, December 21, and will reopen on the Monday, January 7, while my staff have a well-deserved break.

Please be safe on the roads if you are travelling, Deborah and I wish you a safe, happy and holy Christmas and that you all have good health and success in 2019.

communities can come together to celebrate the festive season.

“I’d like to thank those who give so much of their time to make the North Coast such a great place to live.

“I particularly want to thank our volunteers and all those who work in frontline services including our Doctors, Nurses, Police and the Emergency Services, for their tireless work throughout the year and over the busy holiday season.

“They do an amazing job keeping us safe.

“It’s a privilege and an honour to continue to serve the people of Richmond in our Federal Parliament and I’m so proud of how much we’ve achieved by working together.

“I’m mindful that there are many people who feel isolated at this time of the year and I encourage all of us to reach out to your neighbours who may be in need.

“I’d also like to thank all those who have given so generously to my Christmas Toy Drive. This will make a big difference in bringing the magic of Christmas to children and families across our community.

“Thanks to the Salvation Army in Tweed for kindly distributing the toys.

“No matter what you are doing or how you are celebrating I hope you and your family have a happy and safe time.”

Member for Richmond Justine Elliot

FEDERAL MEMBER for Richmond Justine Elliot, her family, and staff have wished everyone on the North Coast a safe and happy Christmas.

“On behalf of my family and staff, I wish you and your family a wonderful Christmas and a happy and exciting New Year,” Justine said.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Sweet Talk with Robert Hawken

Harvest up as crushing completed

By Sunshine Sugar TWEED VALLEY cane growers are doing innovative things when it comes to protecting and caring for the environment.

For many years local growers have been involved in a range of projects and trials; and have designed and implemented new and creative solutions that improve productivity and profitability, whilst reducing the impact of farming on the environment.

Recognition of this ingenuity has seen the NSW sugar industry achieve Bonsucro sustainability certification, from the farms right through the factory operations.

Bonsucro is a global organisation that exists to promote sustainable sugarcane production, processing and trade around the world.

Bonsucro’s aim is to ensure that responsible sugarcane production creates lasting value for the people, communities, businesses, economies and eco-systems in all cane-growing regions.

Your local cane growers work to Bonsucro standards to ensure their businesses and the NSW industry as a whole are environmentally sustainable, as well as productive and profitable.

A suite of best management practices is employed by the growers and monitored by industry stakeholders as well as Bonsucro inspectors.

These cover whole-of-farm and include soil health, pest and weed control, biosecurity and disease management, drainage, wetland and riparian management.

Having been an integral part of Tweed agriculture for well over a hundred years, we remain the only 100 per cent Australian owned producer of raw and refined sugar products.

The NSW sugar industry supports more than 500 farming families, many of who are multi-generational farmers.

Their contribution, along with the local milling operations contribute over 200 million dollars per annum to the northern rivers economy.

After unseasonal wet weather in October most local areas have had good harvesting conditions since then and most young plant cane and ratoons have responded well to warm dry conditions.

However, some plant cane is not as advanced as it should be for this time of year, as it became stressed from water logging in October.

The cane growers’ fertiliser and weed control programs are in full swing and ground preparation for soy bean planting is currently underway.

As the young cane grows taller during the early Summer months, weeds and grasses find it more difficult to compete under the increasing size of the cane canopy which shades the weed pests, but grass and weeds will grow prolifically in our fertile soils and high rainfall area if not controlled effectively.

Hopefully a similar sized crop can be produced next year if good growing conditions continue, but a more orderly world sugar market would be welcome by everyone in the Australian sugar industry.

We extend to all readers a happy Christmas period.

Best wishes from the Tweed River’s Cane Grower’s Association.

Tweed Valley cane growers are innovators

HARVEST IN the Condong area finished on Thursday, November 29, with the last cane crushed on Friday, November 30.

A total of 532,480 tonnes of cane was processed at Condong Mill this season, of which 2,313 tonnes were from the Broadwater and Harwood Mill areas.

The local growers in the Tweed area produced and supplied 530,167 tonnes of cane to Condong Mill this season.

This is up slightly from last years’ crop size.

The sugar content of the cane at 11.73 CCS was also better than the five-year average.

The Broadwater Mill season has now finished but Harwood Mill on the Clarence should finish in about one weeks’ time if dry weather and good harvesting conditions continue.

The farmers, harvesting crews, cane truck drivers and Condong Mill staff are to be commended for their good work in bringing in this year’s crop.

The Mill operates twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, except for scheduled maintenance days, and the occasional unscheduled breakdown.

NSW growers need to finish their harvest by the end of November as CCS levels deteriorate in the hotter weather.

Manager’s Brief On behalf of the Pottsville Beach Sports Club board of directors I would like to wish everyone a safe and Happy Christmas and New Year.

If you haven’t won yourself a ham at the club yet, there’s still time.

We have plenty of hams left to be won on Wednesday, December 19, from 5.30pm at the club.

It’s advised that you get in early to secure your spot, as this is a popular draw.

The kid’s registration for Kids Christmas Party this Sunday, December 16, has now closed.

All the kids are super excited to meet Santa and enjoy all the festive activities on the day.

During this summer we will be having our new Summer Sunday Buffet, which includes a wide variety of gourmet salads, meats and condiments in our popular club restaurant The Kitchen.

Our free New Year’s Eve party is shaping up to be a big one with DJ Scotty looking at spicing things up on the dance floor to bring in the new year.

We’re inviting everyone to come down and bring in 2019 at the Pottsville Beach Sports Club From 7pm till the New Year.

The birth of Jesus and meaning of Christmas

MORE THAN 2,010 years ago a young woman named Mary from the town of Nazareth in the northern district of Israel was visited by an angel named Gabriel.

Gabriel told Mary that she would give birth to a son named Jesus and that he would be the Son of God. At this time, Mary was engaged to Joseph.

However, Joseph struggled to believe Mary’s story until the angel Gabriel visited Joseph and told him that Mary would be pregnant from the Lord and that she would have a son named Jesus, who would save the people from their sins.

Mary and Joseph had to travel to Bethlehem because of an order from the Roman emperor that a census, or record, of all people be taken in their hometown.

After traveling pregnant on a donkey for several days, Mary and Joseph arrived in Bethlehem and were told there were no places to stay.

Mary was due to give birth at any moment and an owner of an inn told Joseph that they could stay in his stable.

Mary and Joseph settled down on the hay in a stable with animals sleeping. Mary went into labor and Jesus was born.

The only place for the sleeping baby to rest was most likely in the animal’s trough, known as the manger.

During this time, an angel appeared to shepherds who were watching their flocks in the fields near Bethlehem.

The angel told them the good news of the birth of the Saviour and Messiah, Jesus Christ. The shepherds immediately went to find baby Jesus, which the angels told them they would find sleeping in the manger.

After some time, three wise men, saw the brilliant star in that sky that rested over where Jesus was born.

The three wise men travelled from a far eastern country to find the new born.

During the wise men’s trip, Herod the king of Judah, met with the wise men and told them to come back and let him know where the baby was so that he could go worship him as well.

The wise men continued to Bethlehem and found Jesus right where the star pointed.

They knelt and worshipped the saviour and gave him gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.

They then travelled back home a different way knowing that King Herod was not intending to worship Jesus but that he planned to kill the baby.

Today we celebrate the birth of Jesus at Christmas time.

During this Christmas Season, may our hearts be filled with the love and peace that Christ brings to our lives.

As we prepare for Christmas, take a moment to close your eyes, breathe gently and feel how Christ works in your life. Take a moment to look back and be thankful for all the blessings you have received; and for staying strong despite all the odds that may have come your way!

Ask a loving God to help you let go of anger, remorse, bitterness and resentment, they suck so much energy and goodness out of our lives. Christmas can be time of new beginnings and fresh hope. Try to be loving, forgiving, grateful and merciful and Christmas will take on an amazing glow. Your hearts will be filled with joy.

It is about a real and living God, who loves each one of us more than we will ever really know.

You see we all have wronged God; we have sinned against him, and what we owe him we could never repay back to him. Yet, God knowing this paid the price of our wrong doing by sending his own Son to pay our debt. Jesus Christ came to die for you and me so that things could be made right with God and us. That is the best present any one could receive, and that is why Christmas is a time to remember God’s present to us.

Christmas! A hectic time of year, running around buying those special gifts for family and getting together to be with one-another, that is if we are fortunate enough. There are many who struggle to buy those special gifts or are not able to be with family due to different circumstances. And when it’s all over, many struggle for months to pay off the credit card. So what is Christmas really all about?

Why not come along to Church and share in that time that we give thanks to God for his precious gift to us. Also remember that we can only enjoy a gift if we first unwrap the present. To appreciate the gift of Jesus, you need to accept him into your life, and he will change your life for the better.

All Welcome

“For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given…” Isaiah 9:6.

No gift has been so universal in its distribution or costly in its scope, then that which was freely given to humanity 2000 years ago. This Child and Son mentioned above was entirely handed over to the human race for all-time. His name is Jesus and He “saves His people from their sins” Matthew 1:21. It could be said that all heaven was poured out in this one gift.

Christ, the king of glory is born in a humble stable, exchanging the throne of His majesty for abject poverty. He clings not to inherent rights or privileges but takes upon “Himself no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of man” Philippians 2:7. Why would He do this you might ask? All for love. How could He not? “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” John 3:16. Truly, this is the greatest gift ever given.

The good news of Christmas is worth celebrating for three reasons. It is personal: “I bring you”. It is positive: “Good news of great joy.” And it is universal: “for all the people.” It doesn’t matter who you are, what you’ve done, where you’ve been, or where you’re headed – this news is for you.

The angel brought us news we can use: God loves you!

God is with you!

God is for you!

The entire reason for Christmas is the love of God. God loves you so much that he came to earth as a human so we could get to know him and learn to trust him and love him.

Jesus has power and authority to change our lives for the better. Enjoy his love as we celebrate his birthday.

DUSTY RICH, the wild man of South African comedy, is this month’s feature comedian at the Kingscliff Beach Bowls Club’s last Kingy Comedy event for the year.

Sharp, freewheeling and electrified, Rich shot to fame for his off-the-wall style, for throwing the rehearsed, practiced stand up format out the window and replacing it with the fire and ice, rollercoaster of continual spontaneous improvisation and crowd interaction. No two shows are the same with Rich on stage, in fact no two minutes are the same.

A self claimed space-warrior riding a living volcano with one hand whipping the reins and the other gingerly fingering the lavahot truth that flows freely down all sides – smothering the world in comedy magma.

Dynamic and fluid, Rich is a master of crowd interaction, flinging ideas around the room like an orca with a pack of baby

seals, Rich’s setup and delivery shows the experience he has gained by following and supporting internationally renowned, Trevor Noah for four years, Rich’s wild and unpredictable improvisation ranges from stories of growing up poor and skinny in post-apartheid South Africa, the perils of relationships, embracing his own ‘crazy’, marrying far above his means and moving to Australia.

Truly original, his style is manic and impactful. The mystical art of comedy bursts through his veins (and mouth) coupled with his razor sharp wit, taking no prisoners. Dusty Rich is, without question, an unnaturally naturally talented comedic anomaly.

Catch Dusty Rich when he headlines at Kingy Comedy at The Kingscliff Bowls Club, Thursday, December 13, from 7.30pm.

From Carnegie Hall to local schools concert AS PART of a project designed to nurture young local musicians, experienced students from Chatswood High, who recently returned from performing at Carnegie Hall in New York, have joined budding local musicians for a one-off concert.

After months of rehearsing, students from four local schools including Murwillumbah High, Murwillumbah Primary, Uki Primary and Alstonville Primary, combined with the Chatswood High School students to perform in a 210 strong concert band.

The band, which performed on Monday, December 10, at Murwillumbah High, was conducted by local maestro Mike Keogh as well as guest conductor, Gavin Staines (pictured) who was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for his work in music education.

“We held a workshop during the day for the kids to further develop their skills and then the band performed ten pieces,” Music Teacher at Uki and Murwillumbah Primary Vikkie Armour said.

Ms Armour said it was the first time that local students in country NSW have had the opportunity to perform in a large concert band.

“The kids were absolutely bubbling over with excitement,” Ms Armour said.

“Chatswood High school is really the bees knees of music education, they

Christmas holidays traditionally are dedicated to watching festive, light-hearted films, but there are exceptions to the rule, of which The Children Act is a good example.

tour nationally and internationally and we were lucky enough to secure them here.”

For students who are dedicated to becoming musicians, Ms Armour said it was really important to experience large ensemble playing as well as to have mentors to look up to.

“When they sit beside more experienced players they can hear their tone, see their embouchure and watch their technique as well as making new musical connections and friendships with other kids.”

While some of the children had only been playing their instruments for as little as one year, the standard of the large concert band was notably impressive, which Ms Armour said was due to the dedication of the students over the past three months.

“They have worked tirelessly with untold energy, so it’s music played with an incredibly high standard but also with fun and passion, which is so important,” Ms Armour said.

“They all thoroughly enjoyed it and were super excited, I had kids coming up to me the day of the concert saying, ‘I know this is going to be the best ever day of my life.’”

Ms Armour said being able to provide opportunities like this as a music educator was a ‘dream come true’ and that she hoped it would enable local children to continue to broaden their horizons.

“We work tirelessly to provide music education because every opportunity you give kids creates a different spark,” Ms Armour said.

“It’s about giving them choices and it has opened their eyes to what’s out there.”

After all their hard work, Ms Armour said the students were all looking forward to having a rest from their intensive practice and enjoying the last week of school.

“Next week we’re taking all the band kids to Wet and Wild for a fun day out - because after all they’re all still kids.”

The film is a drama that combines several interesting elements: first of all, it is adapted from Ian Mc Ewan’s novel by the same title (we have recently seen another film brilliantly adapted from another of Mc Ewan’s novels, On Chesil Beach). Secondly, it stars Emma Thompson in one of the best performances of her career. Thirdly, it touches upon a sensitive dilemma of moral, legal and religious nature, and fourthly, it describes in understated but poignant terms a relationship crisis.

At the center of all of the above is Fiona, a family court judge – the film’s title refers to a UK law dedicated to the welfare of minors - who is completely dedicated to her work at the expense of her personal life, including her childless marriage with a devoted but neglected husband who gets to the point of asking her permission to have an extra-marital affaire to compensate for their lack of sexual intimacy.

At the same time, Fiona is confronted with a very problematic case involving Adam, a young Jehovah’s Witness who refuses to get a life-saving blood transfusion because of his firmly held religious belief. Although Adam is almost 18 years old, intelligent and articulate - he sincerely believes that a person’s God-given soul resides in his blood, and that to contaminate it with another’s is to reject the sacred gift of life - according to the law his fate rests in the judge’s hands. And so Fiona is forced to reconcile two heavy challenges: Adam’s future and the future of her marriage, which she has successfully shifted to the back burner for 30 years and now is hanging in the balance

THE TWEED Regional Gallery will launch an exhibition this Friday, December 14, which celebrates the career of Marion Hall (1905–1988), one of the first independent and influential Australian interior designers.

Described as ‘electrifying’, ‘vital’ and ‘avant-garde’, Best’s interior decorating schemes were unashamedly modern at a time when other interior designers preferred subdued palettes and period furniture.

She claimed that “gentle, soft colours … are not restful, but dreary, sapping the energy and the mind”; by contrast, “bright clear colours challenge the mind.”

Her interior decorating style vibrated with colour through her signature glazed painted finishes on walls and ceilings.

“Best had a love of colour and an uncanny ability to use it to transform a room,” said Exhibition Curator Michael Lech.

“Sydney Living Museums holds the largest collection of textiles, furnishings, ephemera and imagery relating to Best’s work, which will be on display in this exhibition showcasing her career.”

Best was inspired by the modernist movement and colour theory of artists of the interwar years. She is attributed with introducing international modernism to the Australian market through importing furniture and furnishings from all over the

world including textiles by Marimekko, Jim Thompson Thai silks and Indian cottons, French wallpapers from Nobilis and Follot, furniture by Knoll, Herman Miller and Cassina, lighting from Flos and Iittala.

The opening kicks of at 5.15pm on Friday, December 14, where Exhibition Curator Michael Leach will preview the exhibition, providing an insight into Marion Hall Best’s life and career.

Huge turnout for Caba Christmas party THERE WERE kids and fun galore at the Cabarita Beach Christmas party hosted by the Cabarita Beach Pottsville Beach Lions Club and the Cabarita Beach Hotel on December 1 Lions Club President Peter O’Donnell said it was even better than last year with close to 1,400 people joining in the fun.

“About half of those were kids - it was

unbelievable, I think they made 600 bags of lollies and they all went,” he said.

“Tweed Coast Rural Fire Service provided the lollies, ran the raffles and help set up which was a huge help.

“Bogangar Public School did a fantastic job again this year in providing volunteers to set up and pull everything down at the end of the day.

“Cabarita Beach Hotel who paid for the fireworks again for about the fifth year in a row which is fantastic and much appreciated.”

Mr O’Donnell said they received a lot of comments on how fantastic the fireworks were.

“I got a lot of comment from the public on what a great event it was and they said they will definitely be back next year,” he said.

“We had a lot of people come from Casuarina, Salt and even Tweed Heads and they thought it was a wonderful family event.

“There aren’t too many events that celebrate Christmas in a bush Christmas way like they do in country towns – this is like a country Christmas on the beach.”

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Still time for wonderful Xmas window display competition LOCAL BUSINESSES have been busy decking their windows in a quest to be named the winner of the best Christmas display in this year’s Tweed Valley Weekly window display awards held in conjunction with the Murwillumbah and District Business Chamber (MDBC).

While the countdown to Christmas is well and truly underway, it is not too late for other businesses to share the Christmas spirit with their customers and be in the running for one of three packages.

There are some great prizes up for grabs this year with first prize a quarter page advertisement in the Tweed Valley Weekly, to be redeemed in January or February 2019.

Second prize is a rainforest seafood cruise for two on the Spirit of Wollumbin with Mount

Raine & Horne Murwillumbah’s tree

Warning Tours.

Third prize is a Christmas grazing box provided by Have a Ball Event Catering.

Murwillumbah and District Business Chamber president Karissa Ball said it was great to see that Tweed Shire Council had put up some new decorations in the main street, and on the bridge.

“Now we are encouraging businesses to get creative with their window displays,” she said.

So far participating businesses have had a range of themes from the Salvation Army’s White Christmas, through to a focus on giving at the Murwillumbah Services Club and an Australian native Christmas at The Foundry.

Santaland will again take place at the Salvos store on Main Street from midday to 4pm on Monday, December 17 to Saturday, December 22 where families can have a photo with Santa while shopping locally.

“It was good seeing it all come together, I get a lot of people coming in here giving us positive comments about it,” Volunteer Shop Assistant Cheryl Smith said.

“The nativity is always there, it’s just nice to have it feeling Christmassy,” she said.

For the Murwillumbah Services Club, their Christmas centrepiece was all about encouraging community members to remember those less fortunate this festive season.

“Every year we have a gift box in the foyer at Christmas where people can donate gifts and toys which we take down to

the Murwillumbah Community Centre,” Murwillumbah Services Club Receptionist Ann Martain said.

Ms Martain said guests of the club enjoyed the decorations but that the gift box was by far the most popular element of the club’s Christmas efforts.

“We have so many people donating,” Ms Martain said.

“All the bingo ladies bring in gifts and last year we had one lady who brought in a whole car full of gifts,” she said.

“She told me that she understood what it was like to not be able to afford presents for your children, so she stocks up on gifts all year and buys toys when they are on sale to donate at Christmas.”

With this year marking the first Christmas for The Foundry, business owner Lee Kirkwood, said he believed the festive season was not only about looking forward to present time but that it was also a time to be nostalgic about how Christmas used to be.

“The Foundry is a historic establishment and we wanted to revive that old school retail Christmas spirit and festivities – our window display being the centre of attention,” Lee Kirkwood said.

“Christmas is a time to celebrate, bringing people together and we love that window shoppers or walk in customers can enjoy what we have to offer - hopefully providing an element of excitement and Christmas cheer,” he said.

For their first Christmas display, The Foundry featured Australian

flora as part of its display.

“The Australiana decorations were considered to be appropriate for our store and season,” Mr Kirkwood said.

“Customers have called it ‘inspirational and beautiful’ – they love it! Hopefully we have bought

about some Christmas spirit into our store and the town.”

Winners of the Christmas Window Display Awards will be announced in the second double edition of the Tweed Valley Weekly on December 27.

Featured Business

Gidday Im Len Prince. I’ve worked at Tweed Heads and Murwillumbah for the DMT, RTA, RMS and SNSW since 1987 and 24 years as a driver tester from cars to semitrailers. “Practically a local”.

Rather than waste the knowledge and experience after being made redundant in sept 2018. I had my instructors’ licence by November, worked for /with a local school for 12 months and now I’m out on my own. There is a vast difference between being adequate to pass a driving test and having a full knowledge of vehicle controls and the skills and responsibilities required by the modern motorist.

Licences can bring joy, freedom, independence and employment opportunities but if disrespected will cause despair, heartache, injury or worse.

Driving can and should be fun but its not a game. Far too often there are dire consequences from inattentive, over confident or lazy drivers, Young and old. If you want to impress your mates with your driving, get them home safely every time, their parents and families will also be grateful.

For good value, thorough instruction in a friendly and relaxed environment. If you mention the Weekly, you get $10.00 off your first lesson. Contact me on 0431 960 983.

HOT WATER

Ray provides a friendly, reliable and honest service Tweed Shire

A sacrificial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efficiently working system and a costly replacement.

Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion.

THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS FOR A LIMITED TIME we will check your anode in the Tweed & Gold Coast area FREE OF CHARGE.

“REMEMBER YOU CAN’T LOSE, NO ANODE REPLACEMENT NO CHARGE” Comes with a 5 year warranty ~ Make your Hot Water System last for 30 years!

Holding with Shot Judy Tuckey OCEAN SHORES ladies have now completed all their Club championships for the year with the Pairs the last principle to be finalised.

The Barbara Sprengel and Sam Curtis vs Glenys Johnston and Janine Howell (sub for JM Quirke) final resulted in team Johnston in front after five ends. A strong comeback from Sprengel and co had them in front by one shot by the tenth end. Dominating for the remainder of the contest, Barbara and Sam closed the game with a handy margin to claim victory and the title – a title they have now won for the third successive year. How good is that!

Family Fun Day for Pottsville and reunion for Cudgen IN THE LJ Hooker League on Saturday, December 8, Pottsville went up against Marist Brothers in Lismore.

“We got away with the win,” Pottsville vice-president Jamie Bennett said.

“We chased down 267. Jamie Tripp (Pelican of the Week) was 69 not out, Jayden Hoare got 47, Tait Burns got 32 and everyone else chipped in with 20s but it took nearly the whole day to get them.

“That was off the back of Ryan McCloy’s 7 for 88 the week before so now we are about equal fourth on the ladder and on the move so lookout - here we come.

“It was an important win for us on Saturday.

“We have 20/20 games - this weekend (Saturday, December 15), we have a huge one against Marist Brothers Lismore at 8.30am and Tintenbar East Ballina in the second game at 3.30pm with a game in between.

“It’s our family fun day with raffles with great prizes including cricket memorabilia, activities for the kids including a jumping castle and full canteen facilities.

“Proceeds go to Tweed Palliative Support and Wedgetail Retreat.”

Casino were all out for 163 in the first game against Cudgen who got the win.

“Caleb Ziebell got 59 runs, Alec Williams got 40 and Connor McDowell got 25,” Cudgen captain Jamie Wilson said.

“After we passed them we declared, chasing an outright victory. We had them at 5/20 before Tim Martin from Casino dug in and with some help from the lower order managed to keep Cudgen at bay.

“We had 9/91 and dropped a catch which cost us a chance to push on for outright victory.

“We play Lennox Head and Casino at Reg Dalton Oval this Saturday, December 15 and all former Cudgen players are invited along to our Return to the Nest reunion the first game starts at 8.30am and it should be a fun day.”

Coastal League First an apology. Last week Bronson Fresen did not play brilliantly for Murwillumbah as stated in the headline, he played brilliantly for Pottsville, as many of you will have realised, getting 5/28. Apologies to Bronson, pictured right bowling up another storm on the weekend.

Pottsville played Lennox Head at Seabreeze, winning the toss and electing to bowl.

Brent Middleton was the top bowler getting 4/39, Brendan Downhan took 2/29

and Lucas Buckman took 2/43. Lennox finished at 8/196.

Top scorers for Pottsville were Adrian Simpkins on 44 but the team was all out for 151.

Terranora had a bye.

Cudgen played Murwillumbah at Rabjones Oval, winning the toss and batting first.

Cudgen scored 8/223 with Kade Hill taking 4/30, Sam Everest 2/38 and Blake Neilsen took 2/12 for Murwillumbah.

With Murwillumbah chasing Anton Peenz top scored with 64, with Don Richards hot on his tails at 62 and Kade Hill on 30 and Murwillumbah declaring at 8/228.

Terranora had a bye.

Our Micah wins under 18 Aussie title

Tapped in to the waves

With Terry Tappa’ Teece

KINGSCLIFF SURFER Micah Margieson is now the Under 18 Australian Champion, surfing with class and style to win the Australian Junior Surfing Titles at Waitpinga Beach, Victor Harbour, South Australia.

Micah is stepping right out of his father’s shadow, and becoming a surfer of substance in his own right.

Micah’s Dad Brendon was a force in professional events in the 1980s and 1990s before becoming one of the first “soul surfers”.

Along with Dave Rastovich, they were sponsored by Billabong just to go surfing and do video parts.

Micah has a great style just like his old man and has announced he is ready to take on the surfing world with his win last weekend.

He will now compete at the World ISA Junior Titles representing Australia.

In the boys final Margieson got off to a quick start with a 6.50 point ride (out of a possible 10 points) in the first thirty seconds.

He then waited until the last five minutes to put the nail in the coffin with one of the more memorable finishes to the division in years.

Wave selection was critical and young ‘Margo’ was first class, smashing a perfect set wave to pieces from the top to bottom of the bank, posting a near-perfect 9.65 point ride (out of a possible 10 points), sending the New South Wales team on the beach into raptures as he took the win.

In the under 14 boys, Fingal surfer Dane Henry placed 3rd with a great performance - another surfer flying the Tweed Coast flag.

New South Wales won overall team honours for the event, with wins in the under 16 and under 18 girls, as well as the 14, 16 and 18 boys divisions. - a “bluewash” you might say.

Boardrider. Snapper Rocks surf Alyssa Lock also performed well, making it through to the Quarter Finals.

Zahli Kelly 3rd in the World Not only are the Kingscliff surfers doing well but over at the World Professional Junior Titles, Cabarita’s Zahli Kelly has placed 3rd in the World Junior surfing Championships at Jinzun Harbour in Taiwan.
