Bupa Banora Point fails aged care standards

By Jo Kennett A TWEED Bupa aged care provider has been found to be non-compliant by the industry regulator.

Bupa Banora Point was issued a notice of non-compliance on Tuesday, November 19, last year for failure to comply with Aged Care Quality Standards.

The provider failed to comply with a standard on Consumer dignity and choice, that “each consumer is supported to exercise choice and independence, including to: make decisions about their own care and the way care and services are delivered; and to make decisions about when family, friends, carers or others should be involved in their care; and communicate their decisions; and make connections with others and maintain relationships of choice, including intimate relationships”.

It also failed to comply with a standard on ongoing assessment and planning with consumers based on “ongoing partnership with the consumer and others that the consumer wishes to involve in assessment, planning and review of the consumer’s care and services; and includes other organisations, and individuals and providers of other care and services, that are involved in the care of the consumer”.

It also failed to comply on the standard personal care and clinical care based on the requirement for “effective management of high impact or high prevalence risks associated with the care of each consumer”.

Bupa Tugun was also issued with a notice of non-compliance for breaching seven different standards.

On October 29, 2018, Bupa Aged Care Pottsville Beach was issued with a notice of non-compliance on staffing and environment grounds, however it has since regained its compliance certificate.

A spokesperson for the British healthcare giant said Bupa “was committed to ensuring residents in all our aged care homes receive the highquality care, dignity and quality of life they expect and deserve”.

“We recognise that there have been some instances where we haven’t always gotten this right and we have apologised to our residents and their families,” the spokesperson said.

“When an issue in our Banora Point home was identified by the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission late last year, we immediately addressed and rectified the concern.

“Out of our 72 care homes across the country, there are currently five operating under sanction, with more coming off sanction in the very near future. The Banora Point home is not operating under sanction.

“While one home operating under sanction is too many, we are confident that all of our care homes will be returned to full compliance in the coming months.

“We are committed to ensuring that our homes are a welcoming, safe and

supportive environment for the more than 6000 residents that call Bupa their home and more than 9000 committed nurses, carers and team members who dedicate themselves to the care of our residents every day.”

Sanctions usually mean a service provider must seek expert help to fix the problems as quickly as possible.

Bupa receives around half a billion dollars in taxpayer funding, but a sanction may also mean the provider will not receive payments from the government for new residents for a certain period of time, usually six months.

Bupa was in the spotlight at the Aged Care Royal Commission with an audit by the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission finding conditions in over a third of Bupa homes posed a “serious risk” to residents.

Despite its track record, the federal government gave Bupa $3.4 billion to provide health services for the Australian Defence Forces.

Bupa also won the contract to provide health examinations for people applying for a visa.

BUILDING COMPANY Metricon is offering a significant reward for information around those responsible for a string of vandalism at one of its properties at Hindmarsh Road, Nunderi, between January 17 to 18.

Metricon Building Manager, Joe Frankland, told The Weekly he’s fed up with vandals costing the company thousands and a $5,000 reward has been posted for information.

“The vandalism had actually occurred twice on the same property,” he said.

“The first time was on the front door and the second time on the side of the house.

“We’ve of course cleaned up both incidents, but we’d like any information

that could assist in tracking down the person or persons responsible.

“Anyone with information could land themselves $5,000.”

Mr Frankland said the reward is also valid for any other Metricon buildings that are vandalised within the Tweed Shire.

“We have a lot of properties across the Tweed and we’re offering the reward for information about any of the Metricon buildings that receive vandalism, we’re also offering the reward for thefts from Metricon sites,” he said.

Mr Frankland said he could not understand why the vandalism was spray-painted on the side of the new home – but was hopeful the community might be able to assist.

The house was sprayed with the words “Mubah Mafia” as well as “don’t move here” and “lick my b*lls”.

Anyone with information, or to find out more, please phone Metricon on 1300 30 45 50 or email: metricon@stopline.com.au

Rail trail or train?

Various government studies and engineering reports since 2004 highlight the decrepit state of the infrastructure and the enormous cost to restore the track and associated infrastructure.

The track, built at the turn of the century, that is 1900 not 2000, is not demographically appropriate today and was originally designed for freight.

Thie 131 kilometre corridor will be lost if not utilised in some manner. The Booyong to Ballina spur, officially closed in 1953, has disappeared, resumed by farms.

The proposed community pathway passes within a kilometre of at least 22 schools so students could safely ride to school and undertake associated bike and walking sports for health and fitness.

Appropriate reconstruction of the bridges and pathway would allow emergency services, including fire trucks to access more of our region.

B u s i n e s s s p i n o ff s fo r b i ke sales, repairs and hire plus tours, accommodation services and eateries would expand. Elsewhere, in Australia, New Zealand and the rest of the world, has seen similar projects revitalise old farming and rural villages such as Stokers Siding, Mooball and Eltham.

The condition of the track would need the lines lifted for replacing the ballast and all new sleepers, as well as all bridges rebuilt.

Finally the legislation will ensure that if the government wants, in the future, to restore some form of transport, the corridor will revert to that purpose.

Richard White, East Ballina Make no mistake, we are at risk of losing this train line forever.

It’s not a matter of opinion whether the bicycle trail will save the rail corridor, the fact is it won’t.

I understand the Act of Parliament required for the tracks to be ripped

Is 5G safe?

Kudos to all involved in the Stop 5G on Hospital Hill movement and to the Weekly for the article.

I was also heartened to read Jason Bradshaw’s letter highlighting the dangers of wireless technology to kids.

According to telcos and the government, 5G is the best thing since sliced bread and anyone who disagrees is a tin foil hat conspiracy nut. We can blindly follow what we are told, or investigate for ourselves.

Think of asbestos, tobacco and DDT. Surely by now, we know to look beyond the rhetoric of any powerful industry that stands to make huge profits from any particular product.

It is a proven fact that wireless radiation is already negatively impacting humans, insects, animals and plants. Many wildlife species depend on earth’s natural magnetic fields for survival. Inescapable electro-smog and the resonance effect of higher 5G frequencies could well be the final straw for our vulnerable, vital bees. Wireless Silent Spring by Dr Cindy Russell is sobering read.

Dense networks of 5G base stations would bring 4G frequencies and extremely high millimetre wave frequencies much closer to people’s homes. Do you want a ‘smalI cell’ outside your house, emitting harmful radiation, 24/7? It is planned for

over 50,000 5G satellites to blanket the planet in this same radiation.

There is global concern about how natural electromagnetic fields, astronomy, weather prediction and life on earth will be affected.

Astronomers warn the naked eye would see more satellites than stars in the night sky. All so more of life can be lived online, instead of in the real world, via the energy guzzling, resource hungry Internet of Things.

Just because something can be done, doesn’t mean it should.

I encourage all to check out t h e E M F S c i e n t i s t Ap p e a l , European 5G Appeal, 5G Space Appeal, Astronomer’s Appeal, the Bionitiative Report, Physicians for Safe Technology, Environmental Health Trust, The Planetary Association for Clean Energy’s statement to the UN (found at whatis5G.info) and the Oceania Radiofrequency Scientific Advisory Association’s (ORSAA) massive database of scientific papers on their website.

It’s high time to rethink wireless technology.

20/20 vision, I’ve still got it

After reading Mr Cornford’s reply to my letter, I started to question my own eyesight, so i went to Specsavers.

They confirmed at 68 years old I still have 20/20 vision but I may need readers in the future. Their advice to me was not to get the rose tint, which is very popular these days.

Water restrictions and dams

The Tweed Valley Weekly (Jan 16) asks the question: “Do you support the construction of the Byrrill Creek Dam?” Yes! Absolutely! Emphatically! The sooner the better!

Tweed Shire recently imposed Level 2 water restrictions and has announced Level 3 from Feb 3, and Level 4 from Feb 28. The fact that we need water restrictions at all, in this high rainfall area, is a crushing indictment of the failures of a succession of Tweed Shire Councillors to ensure the water security of the area.

Two generations ago, it was r e c og n i s e d t h at t h e Tw e e d community would need much more water than Clarrie Hall Dam could provide. Hence, land was purchased for a dam on Byrrill Creek. Ninety five percent of the required land has been owned by the Tweed ratepayers since our parents and/ or grandparents time. The fact that it has not been constructed is unforgivable.

Each year, tens of millions of litres of wonderful, clear, clean water

runs to the sea whilst agricultural and residential users suffer the consequences of dithering or political grandstanding by Tweed Shire Council decision makers.

To duck responsibility by blaming climate change is the ultimate act of irresponsibility. Of course the climate is changing; always has, always will. How about actually doing something to address the issue?

The Clarrie Hall Dam, with a capacity of 15 million litres, may have been adequate in 1974 when the Tweed had a population of 25,000.

It certainly is not adequate now, 46 years later, when our population is almost 100,000. What to do? Simple answer; build the Byrrill Creek Dam with a capacity of 36 billion litres.

I hope that Tweed voters will remember this when, in September 2020, we get to vote for a responsible batch of Tweed Shire Councillors.

Feral animals changing forests

I hadn’t really garnered some of the implications of feral animals (primarily cats and foxes) in our landscapes, other than to see them as killing and frequently wiping out our precious native animals.

I hadn’t really thought about the critical role that these minifauna (marsupials) – things like the burrowing Bettongs, Potoroos, Woylies were really doing for our forest ecosystems.

It has been reported that these small animals ceaselessly tilled the forest floor looking for mycorrhizal truffles, broke up water-repellent crusts, buried litter and kept the microclimate moist near the ground.

Each of these creatures could turn over four to six tonnes of soil or mulch per annum. This equates to billions of tons churned up every year – fire fuel, rotted, buried and damp, just what we need. Feral animals, particularly foxes and cats, have dramatically changed this whole ecosystem. The populations of these animals is now severely threatened.

I support the government’s initiative to work to eradicate these feral predators. We need to recognise that our bushfire crisis encompasses many issues.

Gayle Russell, Nunderi

Charity donations

Worldwide, people are devastated at our bushfires. There are a number of reasons for the fires and I have no doubt there is more than meets the eye.

Meanwhile, over $100 million has been donated to organisations like Red Cross, St Vincent de Paul and the Salvation Army. Unfortunately

the aforementioned charities will only allocate a small percentage to the bushfire victims.

The Australian Red Cross has received $95 million to date, yet have announced they will allocate just $30 million for bushfire victims.

St Vincent De Paul has raised $12.5 million and will only spend close to $1.1 million through financial packages for eligible households.

Of the $43 million raised by the Salvation Army’s bushfire appeal, only $11 million will be received.

Many of those who lost their homes and all of their possessions, left with nothing and desperate, have not received a penny of to date.

Where is the money?

Native animals have fared infinitely worse, having experienced an unimaginable state of terror, unable to escape the intense heat and flames and have been incinerated. Wildlife caring groups and individuals are doing their best to save what few animals have survived out of the billion plus that perished. Many carers lost their properties and sanctuaries but are doing food drops to affected areas where animals are still alive.

Thankfully we can donate to these selfless people directly with no middleman taking a cut.

Sports rorts not the worst

Bridget McKenzie’s rorting pales into insignificance when compared with John Howard’s $328 million Regional Partnerships Programme over the period 2003-2007.

Like McKenzie, Howard and his ministers systematically ignored local and departmental funding recommendations, forcing public servants to fast-track assessments for political reasons to their favoured National Party seats during election campaigns.

The 1200 page Auditor General’s report was scathing. In many cases, grants were handed to National Party electorates that had not even applied for assistance and even before applications had even been received. Corruption is endemic within the Coalition and it seems nothing has changed.

We must save our train line

up for the rail trail is being voted on this month - if passed, this will remove the protection from the entire rail corridor from Casino to Murwillumbah, not just the short section for the bicycle trail. I am unable to fathom why the rail trail group and Council are not going with the obvious feasible solution – to put the trail by the side of the rail track – there are many successful examples of this.

Imagine, the most scenic train ride in the country, linking one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country (Byron) to the Tweed Valley. What a gold mine! Or going for a bike ride down our new offtrack rail trail and then catching the train home again. No need to drive the teenagers to the beach – they can get on the train themselves.

Where’s the money going to come from? From the state’s massive surplus, that’s where. Destroying this train line would be a criminal waste. Good public transport makes countries great. I would leave my car at home if I could get the train.

Think of the future and the whole community and contact your local MP and the MPs down the track today.

Concerns after Murwillumbah classed a city First Wollumbin Mount

By Jonathon Howard

MURWILLUMBAH HAS recently been reclassified from a regional area to a metropolitan area, sparking concerns from Federal Member for Richmond, Justine Elliot who fears the reclassification could be detrimental to the delivery of health and medical services.

On January 1, The Department of Health began transitioning programs to an updated version of the Modified Monash Model (MMM), which uses data from the 2016 Census. Murwillumbah’s classification changed from MM2 (regional centre) to MM1 (metropolitan).

The MMM classifies metropolitan, regional, rural and remote areas according to geographical remoteness and examples of regional centres include Ballarat, Mackay and Toowoomba.

Mrs Elliot raised her concerns with Federal Minister for Health Greg Hunt regarding the “alarming reclassification” of Murwillumbah.

“It’s insane that under the MMM Murwillumbah is now classified the same as Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane,” Mrs Elliot said.

“Given the significant negative health and economic outcomes for the local community, I’ve written to the Health Minister, Greg Hunt to urgently change this classification.”

Mrs Elliot’s letter highlighted that Murwillumbah is a unique regional river town, not a major city.

“And my local community has rightly raised their concerns with me about its reclassification from regional to metropolitan,” she said.

“This reclassification will have severe implications for Murwillumbah including the reduction of incentives for medical professionals.”

Mrs Elliot said Murwillumbah, now classified as a metropolitan area MM1, potentially faces a decline in a range of health programs including rural Bulk Billing Incentives, Workforce Incentive Programs and the Bonded Medical Program.

“The classification to MM1 also means medical practices in Murwillumbah will only be available to General Pathway registrars and no longer to Rural Pathway registrars,” she said.

“This means that young doctors who choose the Rural Pathway can no longer train in medical practices located in Murwillumbah.”

In response, a Health Department spokesperson told The Weekly the MMM classification is purely a databased geographic classification system based on ABS Census data and “does not include a discretionary component”.

“At the request of Minister for Regional Services, Mark Coulton, the Department of Health is working with communities to better target health programs for rural and regional communities such as Murwillumbah, where the MMM classification has changed,” the Health spokesperson said.

The Health spokesperson also provided a range of background information into the MMM reclassification.

“The move to MMM will change the eligibility for rural Bulk Billing Incentives and the rural loading for Workforce Incentive Program (WIP) - Practice Stream,” the spokesperson said.

“Under the WIP - Practice Stream, practices in all locations, including Murwillumbah, are eligible for incentive payments of up to $125,000 per annum to support the engagement of eligible health professionals.

“Incentives available to all eligible Medical Practices in Murwillumbah

Warning rescue for 2020

Murwillumbah has been reclassified as a city, sparking concerns

are: Standard Bulk Billing Incentives; Practice Nurse Incentive Payments (PNIP) (transitioning to the Workforce Incentive Program (WIP) – Practice Stream on 1 February 2020); and Practice Incentive Program (PIP) payments.

“Practices in Murwillumbah will receive a 40 per cent rural loading as PIP continues to use the Rural Remote and Metropolitan Area classification system to determine eligibility.

“These changes are about ensuring the latest data informs Australia’s health programs.

“The primary issue of the rural health workforce in Australia is no longer a matter of undersupply, but of equitable distribution.

“Updating geographic classification systems allows the Department to better target health programs and incentives to the correct areas.”

YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe Murwillumbah should be classed as a city, or should it remain a regional centre?

By Jo Kennett A YOUNG man had to be rescued from Wollumbin Mt Warning after having a medical episode on Sunday, February 2.

Tweed District Rescue Squad President Drew Carr said his team of volunteers were called to the mountain on Sunday afternoon as temperatures and humidity soared.

“We were activated at 2.11pm for a man in his early 20s who had suffered a medical episode,” Mr Carr told The Weekly.

“He was about 1.3km up the track. It took about half an hour for us to walk up to the patient with the rescue equipment.

“There was a crew of seven volunteers from Tweed District Rescue and from Murwillumbah SES and there were also NSW Paramedics and NSW Police.”

A Westpac Helicopter doctor was dropped at Heli Point 1, further up the track to assess the man’s condition.

“He walked down to us,” Mr Carr said.

“They were concerned for his health, so we used the Stokes litter and rickshaw frame to extricate the patient off the mountain where he was conveyed to the hospital.

“He was conscious and in good spirits.

“The conditions were very challenging with extreme heat and humidity.”

Mr Carr said he wanted to remind people who are planning on undertaking the walk to be well prepared.

“Leave early, have appropriate footwear (not thongs), take plenty of fluids, snacks and a jumper in case of sudden temperature changes,” he said.

Wollumbin is considered a sacred Indigenous men’s site and people are discouraged from climbing the mountain, with a sign to that effect at the base of the hike.

Crash victims cut from cars

Mr Carr said there was only minor traffic delays with one road closed on the corner where the crash happened.

The elderly man was taken to Gold Coast University for treatment.

Mr Carr said that as a result of the collision there was an oil spill over the road which was contained by NSW Fire and Rescue Tweed Heads and Banora Point using absorbent material.

The second accident occurred on Sunday, February 2, while Rescue Squad volunteers were on a callout to Mt Warning.

“The squad was activated to reports of a person trapped in a collision in Tweed Heads,” Mr Carr said.

“The call came through at 3.46pm. Upon arrival crews found a single vehicle collision impact on roof with one person, the driver, still inside.

“Crews were on scene quite quickly and in conjunction with Tweed Heads Fire and Rescue crews extricated the patient out through the rear of the hatchback.

“It didn’t take too long to get him out and then he was conveyed to The Tweed Hospital with minor injuries.”

POLICE BEAT Woman nabbed at six times the legal limit with child in the back

A 41-YEAR-OLD Kingscliff woman has shocked the Tweed Shire after she was caught more than six times the legal limit behind the wheel with a three-year-old girl in the back seat.

Police said it was about 8.40pm on Sunday, February 2, when local officers were called to Kingscliff Street after reports a Mazda 2 sedan had crash into a parked car.

“Police arrived to find the driver, a 41-yearold woman, had a three-year-old girl in the back seat,” police said.

“The driver was subjected to a roadside breath test which returned a positive result.

“She was arrested and taken to Tweed Heads Police Station, where she returned an alleged breath analysis reading of 0.324.”

The woman suffered minor cuts and the child was uninjured.

The woman was issued a court attendance notice for high-range drink driving and is due to appear before Tweed Heads Local Court on Monday, March 2. Her licence was suspended.

Wanted man attempts to leg it

A 27-YEAR-OLD Banora Point man wanted on several outstanding warrants has attempted to allude police by legging it on Thursday, January 30.

Police said an off-duty officer, who was aware of the male’s outstanding warrants, drove from a Banora Point location to a house nearby.

“Police attended a short time later and knocked on the door,” police said.

“The male has then run out the house and jumped over a fence into a neighbouring yard.”

Police gave chase and the man was arrested a short time later.

He was conveyed to Tweed Heads Police Station where he was charged with the warrants.

He was bail refused and is due to appear at Tweed Heads Local Court on Monday, March 23.

By Jo Kennett RESCUE WORKERS used the jaws of life to free two crash victims from their cars in two separate incidents last week.

The first crash occurred on Wednesday, January 29, at the corner of Sexton Hill Drive and Darlington Drive in Banora Point.

Tweed District Rescue Squad VRA President Drew Carr said his squad was called to the scene at 1.22pm with reports of a person being trapped in a car following a collision.

“The driver was an elderly man and rescuerworkers were very concerned for his health,” Mr Carr told The Weekly.

“When ambulance officers arrived, they did an assessment and then Tweed Rescue used the hydraulic cutters and spreaders to remove the side of the vehicle to give better extrication while taking precautions in case there was a spinal injury.

“The victim was taken out through the back door.

“It only took about 15 minutes but with assessments and traffic management we were on scene for about an hour.”

Sea turtle hatchlings are coming!

A loggerhead turtle nested on the Tweed Coast over the Australia Day long weekend.

Sea turtle hatchlings are beginning to emerge from their nests across the Tweed and a free information session for the community will help ensure as many hatchlings make it to the ocean as possible.

Sea turtle hatchlings begin to emerge on local beaches anytime in January and continue through until May. Hatchlings can be affected by light pollution, marine debris, predators and coastal erosion.

One of the big questions is, what happens to the nests after they have been laid and what can the public do to help? The community is invited to come along to an information session to find out what they can do. General Manager of Australian Seabird Rescue Olly Pitt will be there on the day to share some of the centre’s successful sea turtle rehabilitation stories.

When: Saturday 15 February, 10am – 12pm.

Where: Kingscliff Community Hall, 81 Marine Parade, Kingscliff.

There’s no need to register, just come along – there’s plenty of space for everyone.

The NSW TurtleWatch program has been developed by Australian Seabird Rescue and is in partnership with the NSW Government’s Saving Our Species program. To find out more about the program visit www.environment.nsw.gov.au/sos For more information about the NSW TurtleWatch program visit seabirdrescue.org.au or www.facebook.com/NSWTurtleWatch.

If you see a hatchling please call Australian Seabird Rescue immediately on (02) 6686 2852.

Tweed’s green scenery is deceptive The water level of Clarrie Hall Dam has begun to fall after the short respite provided by rain two weeks ago.

“The Tweed River is no longer flowing over Bray Park Weir so if we don’t get rain in the catchment that is forecast for this week we will have to increase our releases from the dam to supply the community,” Manager Water and Wastewater Anthony Burnham said.

Currently Council is obliged to release four megalitres a day to maintain environmental flows and river health. To supply drinking water to the community, it will have to release between 32 and 35 megalitres a day.

Over the weekend, the dam level fell 0.3 per cent, from 81.4 per cent on Friday to 81.1 per cent on Monday. Meanwhile, water use figures have risen, with the average person again using 180 litres a day after falling to 174 litres a day before the recent rain.

“The green hues of the Tweed Valley are a double-edged sword when it comes to water restrictions,” Mr Burnham said. “The scenery does not accurately reflect the situation we are in.”

Level 2 water restrictions remain in place throughout the Tweed,

except in Tyalgum, which is fed by the alternate Oxley River system.

“If we need to start releasing from Clarrie Hall Dam to supply drinking water to the community we can expect the dam to drop nearly two per cent a week, which means we will quickly lose any advantage afforded by the recent rain.”

Tweed residents are urged to double their efforts to save water now and delay the implementation of harsher water restrictions which will harm Tweed businesses.

“It’s up to you to stay at Level 2.”

Council will again be ramping up its education campaign to reduce water use. Residents with tank supplies filled by the recent rain are reminded that those supplies are subject to the current restrictions.

“If your tank is not entirely independent of the town water supply, you must comply with all water restrictions.

“Watering lawns is banned, as is the use of sprinkler and soaker hoses,” he said.

Visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/savewaternow for the full list of restrictions.

The dos and don’ts of using household greywater Greywater is household wastewater from the shower, bath, hand basin or washing machine. It does not include water from the kitchen sink or from toilets.

The use of greywater is regulated because of the potential for it to spread disease. Greywater contains impurities such as bacteria and when it is stored it ‘goes off’ as the bacteria multiply.

Greywater is potentially infectious and so all greywater systems are regulated and require Council approval.

Greywater also contains detergents, cleaning agents and waste materials which are not suitable for all garden use.

Things you can do with greywater You can use today’s greywater by directly bucketing it from the laundry, shower or bath to the lawn or garden without any approval.

Use washing detergents low in sodium and phosphorus to avoid degradation of your soils or only use the washing machine rinse cycle water.

Distribute greywater over different locations in the garden and lawns.

If there are any boggy and smelly patches stop using greywater.

Stop using greywater if you see any negative change in gardens.

Wash your hands after using greywater.

Be careful lifting and carrying buckets of greywater over slippery surfaces, stairs and steps.

Use greywater diversion devices that are accredited by NSW Health and installed by a licensed plumber.

Use greywater treatment systems only if they are accredited by NSW Health and approved by Council.

Things you can’t do with greywater Do not store greywater as this will increase the potential for bacteria to grow and for bad odours to occur.

Do not use greywater for irrigation during wet weather as your garden soil will already be saturated by rain.

Do not use toilet or kitchen wastewater, as they contain unhealthy bacteria.

Do not apply greywater in areas accessible to children, people with low immune system or pets.

Do not use greywater generated from the washing of nappies or soiled clothing.

Do not use greywater when a resident is sick, e.g. has gastro.

Do not use greywater on plants that will be eaten e.g. in a veggie garden.

Bitou Bush in the Tweed Budd Park erosion protection repair works Council will be undertaking its annual Bitou Bush control program throughout February in accordance with its legislative requirements under the NSW Biosecurity Act 2015.

Bitou Bush is a native of South Africa and was widely planted on the NSW coast, including the Tweed Coast, to stabilise dunes following sand mining. It is a highly-competitive weed that smothers native plant communities and destroys natural habitat and food sources for native animals.

As a land manager, Council must undertake surveillance and mapping to identify all Bitou Bush infestations in an attempt to eradicate it.

Council will treat infestations at priority areas in foreshore vegetation, starting at Fingal Head.

Signage will be displayed while spraying to advise what herbicide has been sprayed and the date/time of spraying. All herbicide spraying will be completed during the week and will be undertaken in strict compliance with the NSW Pesticides Act 1999 and Council’s Pesticide Notification Plan. For more information visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/Weeds

Council began repairs to the rock wall on the river bank at Budd Park, Murwillumbah on Monday 3 February.

A 10-metre section of this erosion protection wall slipped into the river approximately 10 months after the March 2017 flood.

Waterways Program Leader Tom Alletson said the damage occurred as a result of a large scour hole developing in the river channel.

“Immediately following the flood there was no sign that the wall had been damaged, however, as time progressed the wall’s base rocks slipped away into a newly-created deep scour hole, leading to a section of the structure collapsing,” Mr Alletson said.

The work will take approximately two weeks (weather permitting) and will result in some disruption to the park and carpark access.

Access to the majority of the park, barbecue facilities and recreational boating pontoon will be unaffected.

Electric shock at Kingscliff North Holiday Park errupts into social media tirade

By Jonathon Howard A BRISBANE couple have expressed their disappointment with staff at Kingscliff North Holiday Park after one of the guests received a nasty shock at a power junction box while camping and were told to “piss off” if they weren’t happy at the park.

Aaron and his wife Gemma Parkinson were enjoying an extended family holiday at the park when Mr Parkinson received an electric shock from their site’s power box at around 8.30am on Sunday, January 26.

“It had been raining during the early morning but had stopped and we were going to leave the camp site and I went to turn the power off at the power box in case it rained whilst we were out,” he told The Weekly.

“I went to the outdoor power box, lifted the flap and touched the on/off switch inside, I wasn’t able to flick it off in time and I was electrocuted/ electric shocked.”

Mr Parkinson said he was sent flying backwards, was unable to use his right hand, then his left forearm and fingers started spasming and his hand became numb.

“Both my wife and my father witnessed the incident,” he said.

“The incident was reported by my wife straight away to the park manager who came over and said he would get an electrician to come out and investigate.”

During the next 15 minutes, Mr Parkinson’s condition deteriorated and the family said they were treated with contempt by the park manager.

“My entire left side from my face to my hip was numb, spasming and

heavy, I was having a lot of difficulty breathing and severe headaches, my family rushed me to the emergency department at The Tweed Hospital.”

Mr Parkinson said the doctor told him he would recover over the next few days to a week, as the muscle spasm symptoms would gradually ease and he should have no longterm effects.

“The hospital staff concluded that the only way for this to have occurred would have been for water to be present inside the power box (which should be weatherproof),” Mr Parkinson told The Weekly.

However, the Parkinson family had a nasty confrontation with the park manager, who they said showed “little sympathy for their situation”.

“The park manager didn’t show any concern that I had been shocked as a result of the park’s equipment and spent half the day in hospital because of the incident, not even asking if I was okay,” Mr Parkinson said.

“He argued with myself and my father as to “why an electrician needed to come out” and also “who would be paying for an electrician”, he then proceeded to tell us to “piss off if we weren’t happy here”.”

The family said it was a few hours later when an electrician had arrived and was testing both the power point and our lead / electrical belongings.

“The park’s contracted electrician did various tests on the power box and his explanation of the incident was possibly down to salt build up, coastal weather conditions, earlier rain/moisture in the air, which caused me to get the electric shock touching the plastic on/off button

despite the “weatherproof” casing of the power box,” Mr Parkinson said.

The Parkinson family told The Weekly they were “extremely disappointed” by the park’s response to the incident and treatment by the park’s manager.

The family was given a refund on one of their sites, but the family felt all sites occupied by their extended family should have been refunded.

Tweed Coast Holiday Parks Unit Coordinator Andrew Illingworth told The Weekly the park felt “extremely sympathetic” to Aaron and his family.

“However, we are confident the park is safe, and we felt it was unfair the park is being branded as unsafe on social media,” he said.

“We acknowledge that Aaron received a shock, which was classified as a zap.”

Mr Illingworth said the communication between the park manager and the guests was “not handled to the best of our ability”.

“I do not believe the park manager handled the situation well, but the manager said Aaron was quite aggressive and the manager felt it was best to withdraw himself from the situation,” he said.

Mr Illingworth said the park acknowledged the “piss off ” statement was true and said the park was dealing with the matter.

“We do not find this language and communication acceptable in the park and we are dealing with that matter internally,” he said.

Mr Illingworth said he was concerned that Mr Parkinson had accidentally pushed water off his gazebo onto the power head of the park’s electrical supply.

Aaron Parkinson (inset) was disappointed with the response he received from staff at the Kingscliff North Holiday Park after receiving an electric shock

“This has resulted in the power junction becoming wet and subsequently giving the guest a zap when he touched the mains,” he said.

“He was also using a 10-amp lead, not the legislated 15-amp lead, but I acknowledge that not many guests are aware of power lead requirements.”

Mr Illingworth said if there had been a significant shock, it would have shorted out the power pole, which was not the case.

“Because it did not short out that specific pole, we felt this issue was not as big as Aaron felt it was – but we acknowledge the incident and feel for Aaron and his family,” he said.

Mr Illingworth said he felt they were unable to appease the couple as they had expressed their concerns on social media.

The couple took to social media with their complaint which resulted in a barrage of concerns from others, including the couple’s friends.

“We are genuinely concerned with the couple’s wellbeing and have invited them back for another holiday, but they haven’t taken us up the offer as yet,” he said.

Mr Illingworth said the power supply had been updated recently at the Kingscliff North Holiday Park and this was unrelated to the current incident.

Everything is Better with Solar

Solar is a universal way to reduce energy costs. These are the 3 ways we can make life better for you: 1. Solar Power for Everyone - Residential Grid Connect Solar. We enrich ourselves by generating our own power and pushing back against the Coal and Gas fired Network with clean solar power. If you want to help yourself and our native wildlife, there is no better investment than solar power on your home and more trees for koalas in your paddock.

2. Power Independence - Off Grid Solar. New homes, sheds and cabins are great places to make a stand for clean energy. Use no grid. Burn no coal. Generate all the power you need onsite and store it in batteries. Usually more affordable than connecting to poles and wires in the country and you are never exposed to runaway power prices again.

3. Make Solar Your Business - Commercial solar power. There are huge benefits for businesses that get solar power to reduce their network energy costs. 888 Solar Tek are the solar power investment experts, helping you tailor solar solutions that save more on energy for the least amount of investment. Ask us about all the clubs, pubs, councils and businesses that we have converted in the Northern Rivers and get a free consultation to reduce your energy costs today.

How the Money Flows Back to You 1. Government Incentives - Solar panels are subsidised by the Federal Government - an average of $3400 for a 6.6 kW home system.

Have your say on Tweed Sand Bypass

By Jo Kennett THE PUBLIC is being given the chance to have their say on the future of the Tweed Sand Bypassing Project, which comes off contract in 2024.

The project was created to ensure safe boating access to the Tweed River, and to restore the natural supply of sand to southern Gold Coast beaches.

However, some Tweed residents feel there is too much emphasis on the quality of the waves on the southern Gold Coast with little knowledge of the serious erosion at Letitia Spit, Fingal, which they say is a direct result of the project.

“In September 2024, the Tweed Sand Bypassing (TSB) Concession Agreement (the contract between the governments and the operator) will expire,” a media release from the NSW and Qld governments says.

“To assist in developing a new operating model, we’ve established the “TSB Transition Project”. “ T h e T S B Tr a n s i t i o n p ro j e c t commenced earlier in 2019 and is investigating many different aspects of TSB. “ T h e s e i n c l u d e e nv i ro n m e n t , operations, governance, social impact, infrastructure, finance and of course, talking to the community.

“The Transition Project is an exciting time for us, as it gives us the chance to speak to you about all things TSB – what has gone well, what hasn’t gone so well, and what your thoughts and feelings are about the future of TSB and the coastal lifestyle that TSB supports. “ C o n s u l t at i o n c o m m e n c e d i n December 2019 and will continue to late February 2020.

Some Tweed residents are concerned the Tweed Sand Bypass project is focusing on southern Gold Coast waves rather than erosion at Fingal Head (inset)

“We’re seeking the views of a wide range of different beach users and surfers.

“So even if you don’t live in the area, if you have ever visited and used the beaches on the Southern Gold Coast, we encourage you to complete our online survey.

“Your feedback will be used, in conjunction with information collected from the other aspects of TSB, in developing options for a new operating model.

“This will ensure that TSB continues to provide the best possible outcomes for locals and visitors alike.”

Robert Budd, is one of a number of Tweed residents concerned about the loss of sand from Letitia Spit at Fingal, and he wants people to know there is more

to the issue than how good the waves are at the Superbank.

“NSW taxpayers paid 75 per cent of the initial establishment cost and split the operational cost with Qld,” Mr Budd said.

“The Fingal community is paying the biggest price and receive none of the benefits.

“Since this project commenced, over three million cubic meters of sand has gone from Fingal beach.

“Hundreds of meters of beach and dunes lost, hectares of ocean front land and habitat pumped north.

“Environmental vandalism to create the Superbank. This is wrong.”

Fears for Murwillumbah Hospital Emergency Department cuts STATE MEMBER for Lismore Janelle Saffin has vowed to fight any moves to reduce nursing hours at Murwillumbah District Hospital’s Emergency Department, saying local residents deserve a fully functioning ED. Ms Saffin said she had managed to confirm rumours circulating in the local community that the Northern NSW Local Health District was reviewing nursing hours allocated to the hospital’s ED. The Lismore MP said local residents had contacted her in recent days, concerned that these hours could be reallocated from Murwillumbah to either the Byron Central Hospital or The Tweed Hospital.

“The number of hours I am consistently hearing is 17 hours,” she said.

“People are genuinely worried that their hospital will be downgraded or even closed given that there is a new hospital being developed at Cudgen.”

Ms Saffin said she hoped the Northern NSW Local Health District would retain the status quo at Murwillumbah Hospital, and if extra hours were needed at Byron or Tweed hospitals, they should be funded accordingly and on merit.

“To pit hospitals against each other in this manner is unacceptable and I will fight any moves to downgrade service delivery at an established health facility to prop up newer ones in neighbouring electorates,” she said.

Plans to redevelop Captain Cook Memorial and Lighthouse Coast City Council to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Captain Cook’s voyage of discovery along the east coast of Australia.

“These works included the lighthouse tower and viewing platform beneath as well as the stairs leading up to the platform,” the plans read.

“Extensions to this structure were later carried out in 1990 by the Point Danger Volunteer Marine Rescue Group (now known as Marine Rescue Point Danger) who extended the viewing platform east of the original structure and built a single-storey headquarters beneath which is still operational today.

“Both buildings are prominent local landmarks and the site in general is a popular tourist attraction as a border marker and lookout over the Pacific Ocean.”

Contractors were engaged to complete remedial works at the site, but during these works further significant issues were identified.

Further inspections conducted in 2014, found the extension to be severely degraded “through the ingress of water and chlorides from above as well as by carbonation from below”.

“The result is that the slab that forms the extended public lookout platform and the roof of the VMR is approaching the end of its useful life,” the plans read.

“The slab is at the point where it is starting to lose its structural strength and this process cannot be economically reversed or repaired.

“In light of the above structural assessments, it is considered that

the building extension constructed in 1990 has reached the end of its serviceable life.

The redevelopment will include repairs of the Marine Rescue NSW building with an upgraded facility with enhanced viewing over the Tweed Bar. The building has been designed by an architect and will feature a cantilever public viewing platform over Point Danger.

It will retain the heritage aspects of the original building and essentially have the same look from the street.

The kiosk will be extended to incorporate a gallery/café, which will document history of the area on internal walls via storyboards.

This will include Aboriginal heritage values of the area which according to Council “have not been reflected at the site to date”.

The redevelopment also will provide additional public toilets.

TRACTORS NORTH is a family owned business from a property on the Darling Downs and which moved to the Tweed Shire in 2008 after starting the business in Currumbin.

The family are now based in Murwillumbah after they found an opportunity for the company to relocate to South Murwillumbah Industrial Estate.

Tractors North offer a range of reliable and affordable

tractors with the Korean made TYM range and also Landini as well as direct imports of other models.

The tractors have a horsepower range from 20Hp right up to 160Hp. Tractors North offer qualified onsite repairs, servicing of all machinery and are committed to being an active supporter of the local area.

Tweed Director of Community and Natural Resources Tracey Stinson said heritage consultants had advised that the aesthetics of the original border markers were to remain and the rebuild was to be low impact and consistent with the original border marker structure built in 1971.

“But, the silver lining in this rebuild is that it provides us with the opportunity to improve the amenity of this popular vantage point for residents and visitors alike,” she said.

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE ratepayers are set to benefit from a major revitalisation of the Captain Cook Memorial and Lighthouse at Point Danger without footing the bill, according to the latest plans for the iconic precinct.

The estimated $1.97-million bill for the demolition and reconstruction of the precinct is a joint venture between Tweed Shire Council and the City of Gold Coast with funding for the development provided through a $970,000 grant from the NSW State Government and the remaining $1 million provided by the City of Gold Coast.

Public exhibition of the plans have now expired with the last day for comment on Wednesday, January 29.

Concrete cancer, among other issues, were discovered at the iconic site, forcing almost the entire structure to be replaced.

The proposed works include the demolition and reconstruction of the Marine Rescue Point Danger (MRPD) building as well as the base slab and stairs of the memorial viewing platform.

“Incorporated into the design are various landscape treatments to enhance the amenity and accessibility of the site as well as additional car parking to accommodate the inclusion of a new café as part of the development,” the plans read.

According to Council records ,the structure was originally built in 1970 as a joint project between Tweed Shire Council and the then Gold

Spreading love to fire victims Locals who love life,

By Jo Kennett A MURWILLUMBAH woman wants to spread some love and cheer to bushfire devastated regions and is looking for support from the community.

Tracy Lindberg was inspired by tragic stories coming out of Corryong and Walwa in Victoria.

“They were left for about two weeks without water, phones and power after fire ripped through the area,” Tracy told The Weekly.

“One guy had to go out and shoot his neighbour’s dairy cows because the farmer couldn’t do it.

“He had names for them, but they were so badly burned they had to be put down.

“All the fences are gone, and one old boy named Dave lost his farm and ended up sleeping in his shed in a sleeping bag.

“He had lost his home but there was nothing left for the cattle to eat so he needed to be there to feed them every day.”

Tracy, who volunteers at Wedgetail Retreat, Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers and Team Koala, had already visited drought and fire-stricken towns like Stanthorpe and Tenterfield to spread a little cheer.

She gathered donated goods like cakes and champagne and pet food and took it out west where she provided a day spa with free massages and gifts for farmer’s wives and gifts to take home to their partners.

“I decided to do the same again as I did out west,” Tracy said.

“I’m doing four nights at Corryong and four nights at Walwa.

“They have organised a massage table from the local footy club for me.”

Tracy said this time she was looking for donations of cash because she is flying down and can’t take too much luggage.

“There is a donation box at Tweed Palliative Support Op Shop with Edna,” Tracy said.

“I will be handing the money directly to animal carers in the region, which is mainly to buy feed, medical supplies and to build pens.

“I’m leaving on February 10 and they are really looking forward to me coming.

“Anika, the lovely girl at the Jardine Lodge, is organising people to come along for the day and letting me use her games room.

“Murray Country Cottages at Walwa is giving me cheap rent and I will do massages there and buy champagne for the ladies and something for the men too.

“There is no one left in these towns to support the local economy so a lot of shops will close if people don’t keep them running.

“Who knows how long before they will be able to rebuild?”

If anyone can help out please leave donations with Edna at Tweed Palliative Support Op Shop in Queen Street, Murwillumbah by Saturday, February 8.

love Sunshine 3.6 million Australians are affected by hearing loss, and a whole bunch of them live right here in Northern New South Wales and the southern Gold Coast. They want to lead active lives - going out to clubs, markets, fetes and school functions…or just wandering along having a chat on the beach.

Each person we see at Sunshine Hearing brings us a story about their desire to hear well and enjoy life, and we want you to tell us your story.

Situated in the beachside suburb of Cabarita, with another clinic at Coolangatta, Sunshine Hearing sports a wonderful team of locals who are great listeners - Audiologists Greer McDonald and Suzanne Yong, and longstanding support team members Ruth McFarlane and Gen Wilson.

Sunshine Hearing has been helping locals to hear better on the Southern Gold Coast and Northern New South Wales for almost 20 years. It is not uncommon for us to see the next generation of families whom we assisted when Sunshine first opened.

Tomorrow we could run into you at a barbie or at church, and it’s important to us that when we ask you how your hearing is going we get a positive response from a happy client.

Quality and affordable hearing solutions delivered with professional service and a smile is the Sunshine Hearing way.

The friendly and experienced Sunshine Hearing team treat both adults and children with everything from hearing tests to hearing aids, tinnitus assessments and custom ear plugs.

The most common cause of hearing loss is age-related hearing loss. As you get older, hearing ability naturally decreases over time.

Are you or your partner: • Listening to the television or radio at a higher volume?

• Thinking that others are mumbling?

• Struggling to hear people on the phone?

• Experiencing ringing in your ears?

• Often asking people to repeat themselves?

• Starting to avoid places where you find it hard to hear speech against loud background noise?

Book your free hearing check* today at our Cabarita Beach clinic on 02 6676 1896 or Coolangatta clinic on 07 5536 8368, and tell us your story.

“Our water treatment process was unable to achieve that fine balance yesterday and the discoloured water is now more widespread throughout the reticulated water network,” Mr Burnham said.

“Check your tap water by filling a small white-coloured container.

“If it's coloured anything from a dark browny red to a light yellow, please do not wash your clothes in it and if you already have don't let them dry as the drying process fixes the stain.

“Soak your clothes again and then treat as directed with a citric acid product, available at most supermarkets.”

Residents with discoloured water are asked to contact Council on (02) 6670 2400 and crews will attend to flush the mains in affected areas.

Calls to report discoloured water can also be made over the weekend.

“Now that the discoloured water is in our system we literally have to let it work its way through and out,” Mr Burnham said.

“We are in the fortunate position, however, that despite being on Level 2 water restrictions the Tweed River is flowing over Bray Park Weir so we can flush the mains without running down our limited storage supply of Clarrie Hall Dam, which is at 81.4 per cent capacity.”

TWEED SHIRE Council says the tap water remains safe to drink despite some discolouration in the water over the weekend.

The discoloured water is a result of recent rains flushing high levels of naturally occurring iron and manganese into the Tweed River, according to Council.

Council’s Manager of Water and Wastewater Anthony Burnham said that while the water is unsightly, it is fit for drinking, but should not be used to wash clothes, particularly lightcoloured clothes, as it may stain them.

“The levels of manganese in the weir pool are extraordinarily high,” Mr Burnham said.

“These elevated levels of mineral are a result of the recent intense rain washing a lot of organic matter into the waterways, which has then drawn on the dissolved oxygen levels as it decays.

“The dissolved oxygen level in the weir pool is now very low, exacerbating the minerals issue as the manganese and iron is dissolved and not in its usual particle form, making it harder to remove.”

Mr Burnham said Council was now drawing water from the top layers of the weir pool, where the water quality is better.

Removing iron and manganese from the water during the treatment process is finicky and requires constant fine-tuning of the treatment process.

Americans to the rescue of deaf community

By Jo Kennett TWEED SHIRE’S deaf community is celebrating the news that the captioning system they rely on to communicate will be continued.

CapTel users received a message from the American president of Captel, Rob Engelke, saying that while they remained optimistic that the federal government’s decision to discontinue the service could change, his company would provide users American captioning centres after January 31, for the immediate future.

“I believe that access to the telephone is a right, not a privilege,” Mr Engelke said in a letter to Captel users in Australia.

“I have been genuinely moved by the outpouring of heartfelt messages from Australians who are clearly distressed and frightened about living without CapTel.” Mr Engelke said he believed it was unacceptable to leave CapTel users without access to family, friends, employment, emergency services and the myriad ways that all of us use the telephone.

“Therefore, as a temporary measure, I have instructed our American captioning centres to support existing Australian CapTel handsets so that they will continue to operate with captions while we investigate long-term options based in Australia,” he said.

“I truly hope this offers some reassurance and peace of mind that captioning will continue while more viable long-term solutions can be explored.”

There was outrage last year when the federal government announced it had awarded the National Relay Service (NRS) contract to a new provider that has replaced the CapTel captioning phone handset system with an older, cheaper system which CapTel superseded.

Murwillumbah’s Gary Crosse said he was thrilled to hear the news from CapTel. “I am very happy about this dramatic last minute solution, as are all fellow users, but I worry about the people who may need this service in the future, as it appears that it is only for current CapTel users at the moment,” Mr Crosse said.

“As stated, this is only a temporary measure until some ‘for mal arrangements’ can be made, though who those arrangements are with is the crux of the matter.

“Will it be with the government or will it be with individual users?

“Will it be via the NRS or will it be a stand-alone commercial venture where users pay a fee to use it?

“Either way it will be so much better than the options offered by the government, who have basically gutted the services provided by the NRS.” Mr Crosse said the Department of Communications and the Arts had spent over six months trying to convince users to switch to alternate options or to go to commercial applications outside of the NRS. “Many users have now taken that advice and made a switch, thereby reducing the number of CapTel users who would, until this announcement, now be without a

suitable communication method,” he said.

“The department has been bandying around a figure of about 1,000 users left from the 4,000 estimated users previously, but I cannot confirm those figures.

“The department has also spent a considerable amount of money and time to do this, including the personal in-home demonstrations, as well as tying up the public servants trying to bat away the substantial number of complaints they have received.

“Just such a shoddy, discriminatory and poorly thought out decision and so concerning for those affected.”

Mr Crosse said the news that “a private US-based company is now providing the captioning services that should be provided by our government is a great embarrassment for them”.

“Why could these matters not be resolved by negotiation?” he said.

“The previous providers ACE, AccessComm and Ultratec all confirmed that negotiations were underway with the government

since the decision was made in June last year but were constrained in communicating anything about the discussions because of confidentiality clauses.

“It will be interesting to see if they are now willing to let us know what the results were and how genuine the government was.

“We may be out of the woods for a while but not really out of the forest yet.”

LIKE MANY historic celebrations, the story of Valentine’s Day is deeply rooted in Western Christianity and dates back as far as 269 AD. The day has had several names over the years including Saint Valentine’s Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine and is celebrated annually on February 14.

The date originated from a Christian feast day honouring one or two early saints named Valentinus. Valentine’s Day is recognised as a significant cultural, religious day and more recently to celebrate romance.

There are numerous martyrdom stories associated with various Valentines connected to February 14, including a written account of Saint Valentine of Rome’s imprisonment for performing weddings for soldiers who were forbidden to marry and for ministering to Christians persecuted under the Roman Empire.

According to legend, Saint Valentine restored sight to the blind daughter of his judge and wrote her a letter signed “Your Valentine” as a farewell before his execution.

The Feast of Saint Valentine was established

by Pope Gelasius I in 496AD to be celebrated on February 14 in honour of Saint Valentine who died on that date in 269AD. The day first became associated with romantic love within the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the 14th century, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.

In 18th-century England, it grew into an occasion in which couples expressed their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards (known as “valentines”).

Valentine’s Day symbols that are used today include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid.

Since the 19th century, handwritten valentines have given way to mass-produced greeting cards.

In Europe, Saint Valentine’s Keys are given to lovers “as a romantic symbol and an invitation to unlock the giver’s heart”, as well as to children to ward off epilepsy (called Saint Valentine’s Malady).

Four in a row for Country champs Cudgen

By Jo Kennett

All images by Surf Life Saving NSW

REIGNING CHAMPIONS Cudgen Headland Surf Life Saving Club have emerged victorious at the 2020 Envirobank NSW Country Surf Life Saving Championships, despite a challenge from South Coast club Warilla-Barrack Point.

After a huge two days at Kingscliff Beach, the host club’s 200 plus contingent of competitors proved too strong for the rest of the field to take out their fourth Country title in a row.

Warilla-Barrack Point came second place with Byron Bay putting on a late run to overtake Lennox Head to finish third.

Cudgen Headland SLSC President Grant Rogers admitted the team was a bit concerned by the Warilla freight train bearing down on them.

“Cudgen has once again come through for the fourth time for us and a big win,” Rogers said.

“We were getting run up there by Warilla on second and we thought we would struggle for the first. It was really rough out there today, it was such a big team effort.

“This is a big one for the kids, a lot haven’t come first today.

This is all about team spirit and participating together and keeping each other going and going one better than we have before.”

Third placed Byron Bay SLSC threw down the gauntlet and issued a challenge to the Cudgen club but Rogers says he’s not worried.

“Byron have said they’ll be back on top in 2021 but we say, c’mon Byron, we’re looking forward to it,” Rogers said.

The President thanked his team of volunteers, the workforce who did all the set up and pack down of the event and all the water safety personnel and officials.

“Having Country Champs going this well, we’re getting all fired up for State Champs and Nationals. This is a great boost for morale and we’re hoping to take the momentum through,” he said.

“Community here is a big thing and the support we’ve had is superb and the community gets right behind us.”

Concerns footpath is a rough ride Seniors travel card

By Jonathon Howard BRAY PARK cyclist and local resident Steve Wallace said he has concerns with the condition of a footpath from Bray Park to Murwillumbah High School and he’s eager to see it repaired.

Mr Wallace said he’s concerned the footpath is both dangerous and too narrow.

The Weekly met with Mr Wallace on the footpath last week and he pointed out several sections of the path that are cracking, uneven and in need of repair.

“It’s been in a bad state for a while.

I’ve contacted Council to help in fixing the footpath, but I haven’t been entirely happy with their response,” he said.

Mr Wallace said he has wider concerns with footpaths in the Tweed Valley, which he believes should be a higher standard to encourage residents to get active.

“I was told through Council that the footpath from Bray Park to Murwillumbah High is not used very much and is therefore not a high priority,” he said.

“But I don’t feel this is the case as I see a lot of cyclists and walkers on the path including mums and local students.”

Mr Wallace said he believes more residents should call for improved paths around the Tweed Valley.

“I think it’s time to update a lot of the footpaths through the Tweed Valley,” he said.

“There’s so many benefits to having great interconnected footpaths including for exercise and connecting communities.”

The Weekly put several questions to Tweed Shire Council in relation to the footpaths and more broadly the plans for the footpath network across the shire.

applications open

Local resident Steven Wallace would like to see a Murwillumbah footpath repaired

“Council has identified sections of the footpath that are in need of repair and these sections are identified by yellow paint markings,” a spokesperson for council said.

“There are no plans to widen the existing off-road cycleway between Murwillumbah High School and Bray Park.

“While the narrower sections of the path could be widened, given the good sight distances available and numbers of users, conflict is unlikely and widening the path is not a high priority.”

The Weekly questioned whether the footpath is likely to be repaired.

“Repair works are being scoped and damaged sections are planned to be repaired in the current 2019/2020 program,” the Council spokesperson said.

“Some years ago, Council carried out an extensive review of the footpath network across the Shire through the development of its Pedestrian and Access Mobility Plan.

“The plan is soon to be updated which will involve further community consultation.

“The Tweed has an extensive network of cycleways and residents and visitors are encouraged to get on their bikes and a map is available on Council’s website.

“A new shared user path has recently been installed on Elrond Drive between Monarch Drive and Turnock Street which is well used by residents to access the Kingscliff Shopping Centre.

“This year a new shared user path and links are to be constructed at West Tweed linking Cobaki Broadwater Village to Gollan Drive.”

TWEED SENIORS can now apply for the state government's $250 Regional Seniors Travel Card.

To be eligible for the Travel Card, seniors must hold a valid Pensioner Concession Card or Commonwealth Seniors Health Card issued by either the Department of Human Services or Department of Veterans’ Affairs and live in regional NSW. Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said he was delighted to advise that applications for the card are now open.

“The card is able to be used for fuel, taxis and pre-booked NSW TrainLink Regional services, helping seniors get to where they need to go,” he said.

Minister for Regional Transport and Roads Paul Toole said applications are now open through Service NSW, with cards expected to be posted out to eligible seniors from mid-late February, following a successful pilot in Coffs Harbour.

“We are running a three week pilot in Coffs Harbour to ensure every step of the process is a smooth and hassle-free experience for both seniors and retailers in the bush,” Mr Toole said.

“Following this trial, the card will be posted to seniors, with a PIN to follow a few days later with an explanation on how to activate the card.”

Eligible seniors will have a minimum of 12 months to use their card from the time of activation.

Mr Provest said the card would ease the cost of travel for eligible regional seniors.

“Travel is one of the most significant expenses for residents living in rural and regional NSW, which is why the NSW Nationals in government committed at the 2019 election to reducing that cost for seniors,” Mr Provest said.

“The NSW Nationals are committed to making it easier and more affordable for seniors to stay connected with family and friends, as well as accessing essential services including medical appointments and shopping centres.”

Pouches to curb mobile phone use

By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH HIGH School is rolling out a new mobile phone policy in partnership with Melbourne-based company Yondr, which will safely lock student’s mobile phones away in a handy phone pouch.

The Weekly visited the school on Monday, February 3, to find out more about the new phone pouches which use a magnetic locking system to prevent students from accessing their phones.

“Yondr supplies students with a lockable pouch that the student places their mobile phone in for the duration of the school day,” Yondr representative Loki Morrison said.

“The pouch is unlocked as the student leave school.”

Students undertook a full day presentation about how the program works on Monday, February 3, while parents were invited to the school on Tuesday, February 4, to learn about the pouch.

Murwillumbah High School Principal, Peter Howes, said the school is the 11th in NSW to take up the pouches and feels

“I think the new Yondr pouches will help students to moderate their behaviour with the phones,” he said.

“This system will help limit the addictive nature of the phone including from apps and phone features.”

Mr Howes said he believes the pouches will assist in changing the habits of students and their phone usage at school.

“One of the key areas for the school is social interaction which is an area that phones are not helping,” he said.

“There’s been a lot of research showing the amount of use of phones correlates with the wellbeing of the user.

“Using the Yondr pouch students will remain focused and unless it’s an emergency or they need to use the phone for home or work commitments.”

Fun for all at Cabarita’s Indigenous Charity Cup

By Jo Kennett IT’S ONE of the best days of the year on the Tweed and this year there will be more fun and entertainment than ever with a new, expanded Charity Cup touch football day at Cabarita on Saturday, February 8.

“This year is a bit different,” Simon Tate, one of the organisers said.

“The event has been renamed the Indigenous Charity Cup this year with a smoking ceremony and Welcome to Country to kick off the day.

“Every team will have Indigenous jerseys and this year the winner of the Justin Cullen Medal for sportsmanship, skill and heart, attributes that he not only possessed but inspired in others, will receive clapsticks created by an indigenous artist which is really cool because it has some real meaning.

“We have market stalls and all sorts of things happening, so it’s turned into a real carnival,” The Charity Cup has twice won the Tweed Shire Community Event of the Year and raises funds for local families in need and to fund community Mental Health First Aid courses.

“We did one with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander mental health and the big thing about it was their connection to the land and how they depended on it, but created no impact,” Simon said.

“As I left that training, I started to look around our community

and realised they lived here, and this is their country and we need to honour that and spend some more time thinking about where we live as well.

“The area is growing, and we all need to be mindful that living here is having an impact on the land and we all need to be thankful and to try to limit our impact as much as we can.”

This year’s event will have plenty of fun for the family with jumping castles and live music all day as well as markets and food stalls.

Every team will be wearing a jersey designed by former Raiders reserve grade player Daniel Evans, a local Indigenous artist and founder of the Walkabout Warriors.

“I’ve been painting for seven years and I’m really passionate about it; it connects me back to my people and my culture,” Daniel said.

“I designed the NRL’s Indigenous referees jerseys last year, but we take an Indigenous team to America each year for footy, we play in the national comp at Chicago, New York and Seattle.

“The shirts are all my designs with different Indigenous animals.

“The Charity Cup is a great concept; they have raised over $250,000 in the last few years.

“To get the community together for such a great cause is amazing and it’s just getting bigger and bigger every year.

“It’s going to be massive, there will be artworks on the fields as well.

Locals and organisers are fired up for a fun day at the Cabarita’s Indigenous Charity Cup at the Les Burger Field

“I’ve done three of the Mental Health First Aid courses; it’s unreal the way the community gets behind it and wants to be involved.

“I love living on the Tweed Coast, it’s a great, tight-knit community.”

Louise Togo told the Weekly there will be a combination of Indigenous and non-Indigenous providers focusing on mental and physical health and wellbeing as well as employment education providers.

“There will also be regular market stall holders with things like jewellery, art, food, coffee, and clothing, and there are still spaces available for stalls,” Louise said.

“This is the inaugural market stall for the Charity Cup, which we added to bring more of the

community to the event rather than just people playing touch.

“We have supporters’ shirts available designed by Marni Tuala.

“They are called Jimbalung which is a Bundjalung language word for family.

“They represent the five communities on Goodjinburra: land including Fingal, Kingscliff, Cabarita, Hastings Point and Pottsville connected and surrounded by red earth and middens where our people gathered together for more than 60,000 years,” Marni Tuala said.

The original artwork will be on silent auction on the day.

“Come on down and support the Indigenous Charity Cup; it’s about breaking down barriers and it’s for everybody,” Marni said.

The event culminates in a presentation night later in the year when funds are handed over and community members share the stories of the struggles they are facing and how much the support of the community means to them.

It is a truly moving and inspiring night and one that the public is welcome to attend.

Time table: 8am: Welcome to Country with smoking ceremony 8.30am: Touch football games start 9.30am to 2pm: Market stalls with local providers including ETC Employment and Training, Headspace, Bugalwena, Solid Mob, live music, jumping castle and food.

Lemonade Fitness develops model for diverse abilities Expect wet conditions

By Jonathon Howard ONE OF Kingscliff’s newest NDIS Support Providers, Lemonade Fitness, is providing a unique and personalised approach to those living with a disability.

Passionate local operators Elaine Johnston and Kylie Baird have developed a program during the past eight months to engage and teach participants fitness and life skills and how to develop their personal wellbeing.

Ms Johnston has more than 29 years’ experience with disability support including working alongside her son, Nathan, who has down syndrome and autism.

“I felt that I’d been looking for program and assistance for my son, but never found the right program for us,” she said.

“After so long in the disability sector, I’ve had the opportunity to develop these innovative new programs that not only teach physical fitness but also engage in life skills for our clients.”

Ms Johnston said the program first and foremost teaches self-worth and personal value.

“This is an extremely important area for us to develop our client’s self-worth and for them to understand they are important and can contribute to society,” she said.

Ms Baird also brings a wealth of knowledge to the Lemonade Fitness team and feels passionate about helping clients to achieve their goals.

“We have a strong commitment to our clients which is expressed in our vision statement,” she said.

“Lemonade partners with people with diverse abilities to enhance quality of life in the journey of achieving goals together.”

Lemonade Fitness participants are loving their new courses at Kingscliff

The Weekly visited Lemonade Fitness at 4/32 Marine Parade, Kingscliff, for a photoshoot and to meet with several local clients on Monday, February 3.

Ms Baird explained that each person is assessed on their strengths and skills as well as areas for improvement.

“We take them through the many obstacles that life can throw at us,” she said.

“This can include things like handling money, buying groceries and how to present yourself in public, as well as keeping fit and active.”

Ms Johnston said the tailored programs were already working wonders with participants.

“We host a range of activities to keep the fitness side fun and engaging,” she said.

“But we also go beyond the gym and get out into our beautiful coastal community to learn about life and how to cope with life’s many challenges.”

Lemonade Fitness has a fully equipped gym alongside a range of home-life scenarios to work through.

“Sometimes even the little things in life can be challenging, like managing money or going shopping,” Ms Johnston said.

“We try to break down those barriers for people and teach them the skills of life.”

To find out more about Lemonade Fitness please phone (02) 6674 0501 or visit their office at 4/32 Marine Parade, Kingscliff.

THE NSW SES is encouraging all Tweed Shire residents to prepare for forecasted heavy rainfall and severe storms that are likely extend through to the weekend.

The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) are predicting slow moving thunderstorms with the potential for more than 200mm of rainfall across the Northern Rivers with flash flooding a possibility.

BOM issued a flood watch for the region on Wednesday, with minor flooding possible in the Tweed and Rous Rivers and a chance of intense rainfall in some areas.

NSW SES Deputy Zone Commander Mark Somers wanted to urge residents to prepare their homes and not to cross flooded causeways.

“Bring in or secure any outdoor items in the yard or on the balcony, check your gutters are clear and your roof is in good condition, trim any overhanging branches and take care when travelling in poor weather conditions,” Mr Somers said.

“The Northern Rivers has experienced drier conditions over the past 12 to 18 months and this rain event will be a welcome relief to many.

“NSW SES urges residents and visitors to take care when driving in wet weather on the local roads and especially if you are driving in upper catchment areas where low lying causeways overflow and are dangerous to cross when flooded.

“It’s important that drivers slow down as roads may have trees, branches and debris covering them.”

NSW SES is reminding people to never drive, ride or walk through floodwater as this is the main cause of death during floods.

The NSW SES and BOM are continuing to monitor the weather system closely. Stay alert, listen to any updates and advice and monitor the Bureau of Meteorology website on www.bom.gov.au

Residents are being reminded: if it’s flooded, forget it, as the region is expected to cop a downpour this week

Rotary Club of Mt Warning AM host special meeting

By Jonathon Howard NSW RURAL Fire Brigade Group Captain Mark Eglington provided a chilling account of fighting bush fires across NSW during a special meeting hosted

by Rotary Club of Mt Warning AM recently.

The breakfast meeting attracted a strong turnout with more than 40 members and guests gathering at Johnny Francos Place on Wednesday, January 29.

Mr Eglington is a committed firefighting volunteer with extensive experience fighting fires throughout Australia.

However, he also admitted he’d come up against some challenging times during the current summer bushfire season and remained concerned for future fires in the Tweed Shire.

Mr Eglington said he was called to assist in Cobargo where he witnessed the full fury of one of Australia’s most devastating bushfires.

Mr Eglington also commented on the need to address fuel loads locally with areas such as Tumbulgum high on his list of concerns.

“Back a long time ago, we’d drive along and throw burning embers along the roadside as a sort of backburning method which worked,” he said.

“But that practice has long been outlawed and in my opinion, no back burning is adding to our issues and the risks.”

Mr Eglington said the last big local fire in his memory was at North Tumbulgum in 1968.

Rotary Club of Mt Warning AM members and guests enjoyed a delicious breakfast at Johnny Francos Place

“But with current fuel loads high, there really needs to be some strategic burn offs undertaken in the cooler months to keep it under control,” he said.

He also provided Rotarians with his views on the large amount of funding provided to the RFS and where he believes it should be spent.

“The RFS is well funded and we are well resourced,” he said.

“The generous money that’s being raised and donated should really be directed to other support

organisations directly for the victims of the fires, not the RFS itself.”

The Rotary Club of Mt Warning AM drew the Bushfire Appeal Raffle and the winner was Jeannie Anderson.

“Thanks to all who donated the prizes and supported the raffle buying and selling tickets,” Jeannie said.

The Rotarians also welcomed ITV community service director, Lanie Loughlin, who offered $2,500 in community grant funding to You Have a Friend (YHAF).

ITV offers $50,000 of community grants annually as a way of giving back to the Tweed residents.

The funds will be used to buy 24 weatherproof backpack style sleeping swags to give those sleeping rough a better night’s sleep.

Fortunately, the club had already taken the liberty to purchase the swags which were presented to YHAF founder John Lee who was a guest at the meeting.

Mr Lee said YHAF and its 80 volunteers feed 300 homeless people each week in many locations throughout the Tweed Shire.

“YHAF accepts no government grants and exists solely on donations and its Machinery Drive, Tweed South Op shop profit,” he said.

“In addition to meals cooked on site, YHAF distributes sleeping bags, canned food, and packs of toiletries.”

Mr Lee said YHAF have extended their service in recent months by providing much needed water (600,000 litres to date) to farmers in the Stanthorpe region, as well as and a small number of sleeping swags in the town.

New interns join team at The Tweed Hospital

By Jonathon Howard TWO TWEED locals are among the new medical interns who were welcomed to The Tweed Hospital recently.

Julia Walker and Melissa Herbert grew up in the Tweed Shire and are now returning to launch the next phase of their medical careers after studying away from home with Julia in Wollongong and Melissa in Brisbane.

Julia was born in Murwillumbah District Hospital and is a former student and drama teacher at Lindisfarne Anglican Grammar School.

She’s excited to be back at The Tweed Hospital for her “dream job” and to start a long and rewarding career in medicine.

Former Lismore resident Luke Worner is also among the junior clinicians at the beginning of his medical career on the Tweed.

The 2020 cohort of 18 interns includes new faces from Tasmania, Victoria and Queensland, as well a strong international flavour with doctors coming all the way from Canada,

Germany, Indonesia and France.

Tweed Hospital Interns 2020 with Dr John Gallicio (Acting DMS), Dr Tim Williams and Geoff Provest MP

One intern from Liverpool Hospital also rotates to The Tweed Hospital each term.

Over the next two years, the interns will have a chance to develop their skills in a wide range of medical specialties, including surgery, emergency medicine, paediatrics, obstetrics, psychiatry and orthopaedics.

Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD) Executive Director of Medical Services, Dr Tim Williams, said the junior doctors will learn their trade alongside expert consultants with years of experience in the medical profession.

“We have a really dedicated team of specialist staff, nursing and allied health professionals at The Tweed Hospital, who will be guiding these doctors through their first years,” Dr Williams said.

“These junior doctors bring skills and experiences which add to the diversity and culture of our health service, and they are potentially our local specialist staff of the future.”

Together with those based at Lismore Base Hospital, the NNSWLHD is welcoming 32 interns across the region.

The NSW Government is investing $107 million in the internship program this year.

Since 2011, intern positions in NSW have increased by 257 or 33 per cent.

Interns rotate through metropolitan, regional or rural hospitals, as well as General Practices.

NSW guarantees intern positions to all domestic medical graduates of NSW universities, and provides internships to many graduates from interstate universities.

Everyone can experience challenges in their relationships and according to experienced trainer and personal growth trainer and Gestalt psychotherapist Gayle Russell “you’re not alone”.

“So much of what we experience in our relationships with others goes unsaid – or comes out in ways that can be very damaging,” she said.

“We often struggle with indecision and a lack of clarity over what is happening with others.

“It may be reassuring to know that you are not alone in these experiences and things can change for the better, for your own well-being.”

Ms Russell said the short one-day course will give attendees guidance, understanding and skills to more fully express their needs, improve their relationships and reduce conflict.

“Some people are at a crisis point in their life, are plagued with self-doubt or lack of direction,” she said.

“Some have a struggle defining their personal or emotional boundaries and saying no.

“This course will help you see ways to step in new directions and change what you really don’t want in your life.”

To register your interest for this short, valuable course phone Murwillumbah Community College now on: (02) 6672 6005 to secure phone Gayle Russell, tutor on: (02) 6672 5409.

The subsidised Improving Relationships course is on offer through Murwillumbah Community College, on Sunday, February 9, from 9am to 1pm. The course costs is $30.

34 Stokers versus Aussies Cricket Match Thursday, February 6, 2020

By Jonathon Howard STOKERS CLAIMED v i c t o r y at t h e a n nu a l Aussie Vs Stokers Siding Cricket Match on Sunday, February 2, with quality social cricketers making for a great game.

The 40 over game took place at the Murwillumbah Cricket Club fields with plenty of enthusiasm from the Aussie side, who were eager to retain the title.

Aussie captain Lee Balgowan said the day was another great social outing and he wanted to thank the players and spectators as well as the Murwillumbah

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Cricket Club and Sport World Murwillumbah for their support.

“It was another great year for the match,” Mr Balgowan said.

“We had a strong number of quality social players this year with some standout efforts.”

Mr Balgowan said Stokers player Dave Corbett showed some great bowling form and was named man of the match.

Tweed Valley Weekly editor Jonathon Howard stepped up for a bat with the Aussie side this year.

“It was great to be back behind a bat, shame I only got a measly three runs before I was bowled out,” he said.

Sports World Murwillumbah kindly donated two match balls

Stokers Siding PUBLIC SCHOOL

‘Small School, Big Family’

and is a strong supporter of local sports.

“We’d like to give a special thank you to the Murwillumbah Cricket Club for the use of the field and Sports World Murwillumbah, who give us great discounts on cricket gear and provide the game balls for free,” Lee said.

Whi l e not a n offi c i a l tournament, the match dates back to the 1970s, but more recently it commemorates the loss of the Australian Hotel, which burnt down in Murwillumbah in 1981.

The game was first organised

by Dave Cross, a schoolteacher at Murwillumbah High and

Ken Paddon, a cane farmer from Condong.

The iconic pub remains immortalised in a special urn that carries some of the hotel’s ashes and was expertly crafted

The urn is a coveted prize that’s highly sought after, with each year’s winner inscribed on the urn’s wooden case.

The match is played with 40 overs with no LBW calls and all players must bowl and hopefully get a bat. Players retire at 40 runs.

By Jo Kennett SOME INCREDIBLY talented Tweed surfers feature in a surfing documentary at the Global Wave Conference which runs from Tuesday, February 11, to Thursday, February 13, at the Gold Coast Campus of Southern Cross University.

Grace and Audrey Stynam-Lane appear in Juul Hesselberth’s documentary, Just Go F***ing Surfing, one of two documentaries screening on Tuesday, February 11.

The Duranbah Boardriders’ wondertwins will also be a part of a Q & A session at the end of the film.

Audrey Stynam-Lane told The Weekly the documentary was originally going to be about female surfers at Snapper Rocks.

“Then it turned into a doco on our views on women surfing and about growing up and competing in the era that it was,” Audrey said.

“We couldn’t get a sponsor because we wouldn’t get our bums out but now it’s done a full turnaround because they want athletes.

“It’s about growing up and being female surfers in the Tweed Gold Coast area and it’s a great insight for people to understand how women’s surfing has changed over the years.”

Dutch female surfer and documentary director Juul Hesselberth said that although more women are surfing, their stories are rarely told.

“What does the marketed ‘sexy surfer girl’ image do with women who can’t/don’t want to live up to this image?” she said.

“How has this influenced their career and self-esteem?”

Juul has a background in psychology and cultural anthropology and the documentary is part of her master’s thesis, Women on Waves.

Juul spent three months filming in Australia, following four former female pro surfers.

“Before heading to Australia, I had done my research on gender, surfing, power dynamics and partly on Australia’s surfing history,” Juul told The Weekly.

“By doing interviews in Coolangatta, observing and surfing, I started to pick out women who had similar stories, but I did not yet have a strong film plan in my head.

“I tried to be led by their stories and their daily lives.

“When I came home and started writing out my thesis and editing, that is when I started to see the real thread.”

The documentary changed focus from gender dynamics in the surf to professional female surfing.

“Being a female surfer myself I have experienced feeling highly frustrated in the crowded waters very often,” Juul said.

“This research is a result of my personal interest in wanting to understand how these frustrations grow and might have impacted my skill development, but also to understand the experiences of fellow female surfers who have expressed similar feelings.

“Although gender power dynamics in the ocean was something many women had something to say about, women who invested most of their lives in a surfing career were more emotionally invested in talking about endorsement money.

“After being there for a month I started focusing only on women who pursued a surfing career.

“I picked out girls with an outspoken opinion, a strong story to tell and amazing surfing skills.”

Juul hopes men will come along to the film as well as people involved in skateboarding and snowboarding.

“This isn’t just a ‘girl problem’,” she said.

“To fix this we need all surfers on board and the problem of endorsement money isn’t only to be found in surfing.

“The point I’m making is that women would love to be able to just go out there ‘and go f***ing surfing’, but we aren’t there yet.

“And to get there not only mindsets of men and women in the water need to change, the sponsor industry needs to change as well.”

Just go F***ing Surfing is on from 6pm NSW time - 7pm on Tuesday, February 11 at the Gold Coast Campus Southern Cross University.

Another surf documentary, Handcrafted by Dick Van Straalen, by Greg Huglin and John Charlton is on from 7pm - 8pm.

“Bring along your voice and we will supply percussion instruments for some all-in jamming to great love songs from bygone eras.”

Angela said it was “very rare for seniors to get invited along to an event with live music of this calibre and it’s free”.

“This year the song list will not disappoint,” she said.

“We have a big interactive Beatlesinspired finale with everyone singing along and joining in the percussion if they want to shake, rattle and roll.

“Come and join us, it’s going to be a lot of fun.”

If you, like me, have moved to beautiful Tweed Shire in search of a tree/sea-change and have ended up with a hobby farm and challenges you were not really prepared for, you should watch The Biggest Little Farm..!

This documentary, that has become a hit at the Telluride Film festival and beyond, follows American cinematographer John and his wife Molly chasing their dream to set up a sustainable farm in California, with a lot of enthusiasm but zero experience.

Their adventure starts because their rescue dog Todd is a barker, they are evicted from their downtown apartment in Santa Monica and therefore move to a rundown homestead an hour outside the city, hoping to farm in harmony with nature – but the snails, coyotes and bugs among the others have different ideas….

However, John had not left his camera behind, and the result is an eight-year long project documenting the couple restoring the soil, fighting off infestations, nursing pregnant pigs, coping with fire and drought; an odyssey shot in incredibly creative ways that make the film look more like a fantasy film than a documentary. Their ultimate success comes down to environmental principles, and after eight years John and Molly can proudly look at their beautiful Apricot Lane Farm buzzing with life.

The film is as much about the two of them as it is about the ecosystem and the stories of the animals that live on the farm; it is a forward-thinking, problem-solving heart-warmer that shows how human beings can happily and sustainably live with nature.

To quote John: “Most documentary films about any farm or environment are fear-based. The enemy is a human corporation or greed. The victim is always the planet. And at the end the audience leaves feeling fear or despair or depression, their eyes are more tight, not more wide. I wanted to show there’s something different going on, there’s an incredible experience that awaits us if we fall in love with it. That will be the cure”.

By Jo Kennett LOVE TO Celebrate is the theme of this year’s Seniors Festival Week and the Pottsville Beach Neighbourhood Centre (PBNC) will be joining in the party with its popular Jam ‘n’ Songs event at Pottsville Community Hall on Wednesday morning, February 12.

PBNC’s manager Angela Maxwell said the free event has moved to the bigger venue because it was such a success last year.

“The theme is Love to Celebrate, just in time for Valentine’s Day, and we are bringing love to the celebration,” Angela told The Weekly.

“Al Cann is the headline musician; he is a pianist and singer and he is really excellent and back by popular demand.

“Our house band is performing, and they have real alchemy and it works so it’s going to be a fun morning.

“Concert goers will be encouraged to sing, dance and clap along.

“The theme will be love songs across the ages, just in time for Valentine’s Day 2020, so come along and get your croon on.

“There will also be jam and scones with the Jam n Songs, just like we did last year but this year it will be at the Pottsville Community Hall rather than the PBNC.” Coordinator Paul Riddett said it will be a great day out.

“We are running it again due to the popularity of last year because of the interactivity of the event and the positive

Tom Hanks rolls into Mavis’s after climbing Mt Warning

6 H E AT S

Sundays 3pm - 6pm 26 Jan. - 01 Mar.

By Jonathon Howard HOLLYWOOD ROYALTY Tom Hanks spent almost two hours enjoying the food and scenery at Mavis’s Kitchen and Cabins on Saturday, February 1.

Mavis’s owner Peter Clarke told The Weekly he was “extremely nice guy”.

“He visited with a few friends which I think were a mix of Aussies and Americans,” he said.

“I welcomed him as Mr Hanks and he said to “call me Tom”, which was nice.

“He requested a nice private table and we set him up downstairs in a great spot near the garden.”

Mavis’s Kitchen General Manager Riccardo (Ricky) Burchielli served Mr Hanks during his time at the top local spot.

Mr Burchielli said he stayed “very professional” despite being somewhat starstruck.

“It was great to meet Mr Hanks,” he said.

“He’d just come in after climbing some of the way up Mount Warning.”

But most of all Mr Hanks said he loved the food and surroundings of Mavis’s Kitchen.

“The group shared a range of dishes,” Mr Burchielli said.

Mr Hanks is working on a new film about rock ‘n’ roll legend Elvis Presley.

By Rosemary Hume MURWILLUMBAH THEATRE Company (MTC) is proud to announce they were the winners of the 2020 Tweed Shire Australia Day Arts and Culture Award.

This is an acknowledgment of the many years of creating theatre productions for young and old and providing opportunities for theatre training and social interaction.

Despite Murwillumbah Civic Centre auditorium renovations, “the show must go on” and so the company is touring to other venues in Murwillumbah and surrounding villages.

The comedy, Elsie and Norm’s “Macbeth” takes to the road in March and in June another comedy, Keeping Up Appearances, will be touring.

The end of the year will hopefully see the company back performing at the newly renovated Murwillumbah Civic Centre Auditorium with the usual pantomime.

Elsie and Norm’s “Macbeth” runs from March 13 to 29. The first stop will be the Autumn Club, Murwillumbah; Stokers– Dunbible Hall is next where MTC is offering a dinner & show special. The final weekend sees MTC at Tumbulgum Community Hall.

In Elsie and Norm’s “Macbeth” you are invited to join Elsie and Norm in their living room for a bit of culture. Bored with TV and playing Trivial Pursuit, they decide to stage a performance of Shakespeare’s classic

play, Macbeth. After a spot of judicious rewriting by Norm to make it snappier and more punchy, and undaunted by the large cast, Elsie and Norm set out to act “one of the greatest pieces of literature what has ever been wrote in the English language”, playing all the characters between them.

The hilarious results will set Shakespeare spinning in his grave.

Keeping Up Appearances runs from May 29 to June 1, with the first weekend at Kingscliff Community Hall and the second weekend at Tweed Civic Centre, finishing up at a venue yet to be confirmed. This TV comedy favourite has made the transition from the small screen to the stage with the original playwright, Roy Clark, returning to write this new stage version, where Emmet directs a play for the local amateur dramatic company and goes to extreme measures to keep Hyacinth out of it.

All shows for these touring performances will be staged cabaret style (BYO food and drink) with the option of an exciting new initiative of dinner & show at StokersDunbible Hall for Elsie and Norm’s “Macbeth” on Friday, March 21, and Saturday, March 22.

Tickets are available online at murwillumbahtheatrecompany.com.au or at Larkins Electrical Shop, Main St, Murwillumbah.

Book early to avoid disappointment, as seating is limited at these venues.

Tickets for Keeping Up Appearances will be available closer to the performances.

Kingscliff Beach Bowls Club Race Day

TWEED RIVER Jockey Club has once again hosted an outstanding race event for the Kingscliff Beach Bowls Club Race Day on Sunday, February 2.

Jockey Club GM Tim Booth said the seven-race event attracted about 500 locals, visitors and punters with entertainment for the whole family.

“I’d really like to thank the Kingscliff Beach Bowls Club for their sponsorship, without which this race day would not go ahead,” he said.

Murwillumbah star trainer Matthew Dunn notched up two more wins at the event bringing his total for the season up to 12 wins so far.

One of Australia’s leading racehorse trainers Chris Waller won the first race of the day, taking his total wins for the season to three so far.

Mr Booth said the Jockey Club was now looking forward to the next race meet on Monday, March 23, before gearing up for one of the biggest days of the year on Anzac Day. Anyone wanting to find out about bookings and securing a trackside table is encouraged to contact Mr Booth on 0408 627 573.

We specialise in Puppy Obedience training If we develop strong foundations for a puppy to grow & mature confidently & independently, you will have very few problems, if any, to manage in their adulthood.

The key to great behaviour is starting the Socialisation & training process in the critical period (8 weeks – 16 weeks of age).

It is for this reason, Top Dog Academy has a very strong focus on educating puppy owners, so YOU get it right!

Only one vaccination is required! New Programs start 15th February & 14th March 2020.

HOT WATER

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately?

Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

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.

By Rachael Lebeter IN A rare occurrence, a coastal carpet python in the care of Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers has hatched a clutch of 20 eggs.

Last September, two coastal carpet pythons were found trapped in guttering. Both snakes had lacerations on their faces and bodies.

A concerned member of the public called Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers’ 24-hour hotline on 02 6672 4789 and the snakes were rescued.

After treatment at Currumbin Wildlife Hospital, the pythons were returned to Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers for ongoing rehabilitation and care.

Kerryn Fuller, the TVWC carer who looked after one of the snakes, says, “She was feisty from the

beginning. I didn’t know why she was so angry, but I just laughed.”

In early December, much to everyone’s surprise, the python in Kerryn’s care laid 22 eggs, 20 of which were viable. Like all carpet snakes, she curled up on the eggs to keep them warm until they hatched.

“That must have been why she was so agitated. All that time, she was carrying eggs,” Kerryn said Coastal carpet pythons or carpet snakes are the most common snake in the Tweed area. They are nonvenomous and do an excellent job of controlling pests around the yard.

Our carpet snakes are very special because, unlike other snakes, female coastal carpet pythons incubate their eggs. The snake will actually curl up on her eggs and keep them warm until they hatch. This behaviour is very rare among snakes and is similar to the way that birds sit on eggs.

When the eggs beneath a nesting carpet snake begin to hatch, the snake will leave the nest and

disappear. The baby snakes are independent from when they hatch.

“She didn’t move out of the box when she was supposed to so we thought we would be removing dead eggs,” Kerryn said.

“When we eventually opened it up, the snake rose up to protect the nest and you can imagine how surprised I was to see that she was curled up on babies.”

Of the 20 eggs, all of them hatched successfully. However, the mother snake had not moved away and was still on the nest.

“You don’t see that in the wild, but she was actually protecting them, probably because she was in captivity,” Kerryn said.

“It was wonderful to see that the eggs hatched successfully.”

The baby snakes have since been released in a suitable environment.

After a check-up at Currumbin Wildlife Hospital, the female coastal carpet python will also be ready for release in the area where she was rescued.

Holding Shot with Judy Tuckey TBDBA TRIPLES Championships were completed at Pottsville over the weekend with some super displays of bowling prowess being witnessed.

Semi One in the Opens between Ocean Shores’ Troy Makin, Graeme Condie, Rick Barnes and Condong’s Warren Peart, David Cranwell and Alan Fawcett resulted in the Shores team grabbing the lead early and carry on to claim a solid victory.

Semi Two with Pottsville’s Mat Masula, John Ritchie and Jason Mann challenging Mullumbimby’s Richie Northcott, Ben Leeson and Jamie Ewin began on an even keel until the Potty lads stepped up the pace to take full control and claim victory. The final in this event resulted in the Pottsville team trailing slightly during the early ends and being held at bay throughout an extremely tough

contest. Well done Ocean Shores lads.

Senior Triples resulted in Bulla Burton, Richard De Witt and Jim Clark (Byron Bay) up against Jeff McDonald, Garry Miller and Jo Andrassy (Condong) in Semi One. In a hard played game, the Bay boys claimed a final spot with a substantial surplus.

Semi Two with Ken Morris, Errol Sharp and David Davidson (Pottsville) challenging Wayne Bartlett, Geoff Mullen and Max King had the Kingscliff team in front for the first half of the contest. A resurgence from the Potty team created a hard run to the finish line with Pottsville claiming a one shot victory.

The final between teams Morris and Burton proved to be a cliff hanger. With minimal shots the difference throughout, the score also levelled at 13-13, 14-14 and 17-17 on the 18th, 20th and 23rd

ends respectively, generated a nail biting finale to a top class contest.

However, picking up a big six on the 24th end, the Bay boys were over the line. Congratulations to both teams on a super fine performance.

Semi One in the Reserve Grade featured David Sheather, Scott Duncan and Danny Vegter (Cabarita) challenging Danny Hayer, Neil McLeod and Brad Hay (Ocean Shores). The Shores team got away to a good start early to be 12 shots ahead after 14 ends. Team Vegter lifted and reduced their deficit significantly but conceded defeat with only a minimum of shots the difference in the final tally.

Semi Two between Richard Rombouts, Jeff Nolan, Gerry Swain (Bangalow) and Ken Gillespie, Colin Scott and Kim Taylor (Kingscliff) resulted in a closely fought contest with the score on 12-12 after 18 ends. Team Bangalow then shifted up a gear and powered on to take the game with a comfy surplus.

Senior Triples Champions: Byron Bay’s Richard De Witt, Brian (Bulla) Burton (S) and Jim Clark

The final in this category resulted in the fired up Ocean Shores team delivering a heavy sprinkling of multiples to eliminate the Bangalow lads with a substantial margin.

Congratulations are to be extended to Condong Bowling Club who collected a whopping $8000 plus during their Australia Day fundraiser. All proceeds will go the Rural Fire Service. Way to go Condong bowlers.

AN AMAZING NIGHT OF GREAT FOOD, DRINKS, FRIENDS & FUN!

Tuesday – Nth Kirra SLSC Wednesday – Justin Lane Burleigh Heads andwww.tappaproductions.com Your venue????

IT WILL be a big Saturday or Sunday for those fans of aerial surfing, with the trials for the Redbull Airborne on either day depending on conditions - being a one day event with a two day window.

At present there looks like a fair bit of swell headed our way, some from the current weather system, and a possible solid swell from a cyclone expected to develop near Vanuatu, and headed directly south.

This swell is predicted to kick in around Sunday afternoon, so I reckon Saturday may be the day for the Airborne.

The Red Bull Airborne event returns to the main stage in 2020 and will be held as part of the 2020 Corona Open Gold Coast March 26-April 5.

The aerial-based surfing competition is giving locals a chance to compete amongst the top aerial surfers in the world, with a spot in the main event being allocated to the winner of the local trials set to run this weekend, either Saturday or Sunday (exact date will be decided later in the week after determining conditions).

The top surfer from the trials event will secure themselves a place in the main event where they will go headto-head with some of the best aerial surfers in the world such as local surfers Jack Freestone and Noah Deane, with international WCT surfers Italo Ferreira, Gabriel Medina and Felipe Toledo.

Cabarita’s Chippa Wilson has been a fixture in these events over the years, not sure if he is in the trials, I reckon he should be straight in, presently there will be a field of around 50 surfers

shooting it out for the one spot in the event.

Eager Beaver goes ahead rain, hail, or shine on Sunday

Surfing is the best medicine for the mind, most surfers know that.

That’s why the ‘Eager Beaver’ contest this weekend is out there to promote just that and organiser Dan Binskin knows this more than most.

“I have surfed for 33 years. Surfing makes me a better person,” Dan Binskin said.

“I love the freedom of it. It’s a great way to clear your head and is the best natural high I have ever experienced.”

It’s no secret that surfing holds benefits for both physical and mental health with many surfers using the activity as an outlet and as a way to catch up with others in the surfing community.

Surfing was also the way Dan met his good friend Nathan Jager and is the reason behind the upcoming 7th annual Eager Beaver Surf Contest at 25th Avenue, Palm Beach, this Sunday.

“Nathan suffered from bi-polar and his friends weren’t aware of this,” Dan said.

“Due to the stigma associated with mental illness, Nathan didn’t speak up to his friends. I never want any of my friends or family to suffer in silence with bi-polar or any other mental illness.”

Nathan took his own life in 2013 and every year in February the Eager Beaver Surf Contest is held in his memory and used as a platform to spread awareness to the local community about the importance of speaking up about mental illness.

“I saw LIVIN on Instagram and liked the modern approach in getting people to talk about their mental health, the ‘It Ain’t Weak to Speak’ slogan really made sense to me,” Dan explained.

“I thought tying it in with the idea of a surf contest was a fun way to attack a serious problem in my local surf community.”

The contest has been growing each year and become a known event on the Gold Coast surfing calendar with many locals also heading down to Palm Beach to watch some of the best in the local surfing community including WSL World Champion, Joel ‘Parko’ Parkinson who has been a regular participant in the event.

With stigma surrounding mental illness being the main contributor to people not reaching out for help, events such as the Eager Beaver Surf Contest are a positive and powerful reminder how influential bringing the local community together can be in spreading awareness that there is no shame in speaking up and asking for help.

“Your harshest critic is often you and it’s important to remember that no one sees mental illness as anything to be ashamed of,” Dan said.

“There is a lot of help out there and a lot of it is free. Don’t feel you have to take it on alone. Always ask for help and accept help if there are ‘A few roos loose in the top paddock’ as a lot of us have been there.”

Get down to 25th Avenue at Palm Beach on Sunday, some of the top surfers around and a few celebrities will be down there, well worth checking out.

Cudgen is back with fourth T20 premiership Around the Wicket with Jo Kennett

IT WAS a massive weekend of cricket for first grade teams with Two Day LJ Hooker games on Saturday, February 1, and the finals of the T20 on Sunday, February 2, with Cudgen lifting the silverware once again.

Competition leaders Pottsville went into day two of round six of the Two Day LJ Hooker League at Cudgen chasing Cudgen’s total of 481 runs, which was never going to be an easy job.

It was a mixed bag for the Pelicans with opener Jayden Hoare bowled out for a duck by James Julius while his partner Jamie Bennett went to town, scoring his second century for the year, eventually bowled by Julius (caught by Harry Gray) on a magnificent 144.

If it hadn’t been for James Julius, the Pelicans might have had a chance, but his 6/56 pretty well sounded the death knell for Pottsville, finishing well short on 249 runs.

“We weren’t really even in the contest,” Bennett said.

“They bowled well and as a team we didn’t bat well.”

Connor Ziebell also took a couple of wickets.

Murwillumbah got 167 runs on day one against Tintenbar East Ballina who finished the day at 1/99. Tintenbar went straight to work getting another 235 runs on the board with a loss of only two wickets, declaring at 2/334.

The Panthers went in for another bash, and did much better, losing only two wickets to finish the 30 overs at 2/124 (no breakdown available) but it just wasn’t enough to get them across the line.

T20 Finals

It was finals day for the T20 comp at Seabreeze Oval on Sunday, February 2.

Pottsville has been leading the T20 and played Lennox Head for a berth in the grand final.

“It went very well… for Lennox,” Jamie Bennett said.

“We got 154 and they chased it down with two overs to go and only four wickets lost.

“It was a bit of a disappointing weekend, but we have a bye, so we have two weeks off to start over.

“We’ll be right, we just have to do the little things right.

“We know what to do and how to do it, we just have to bring it to the game.”

Cudgen (6/166) beat Casino (6/153) in the semi-final before taking out Lennox Head in the final.

Cudgen skipper Caleb Ziebell said it was a great result.

“We’ve had second graders playing all year, Sam Weir is 13 and he played this weekend because we have had players out and we still have Pat Rosser and Anthony Kerschler out at the Indigenous titles in Alice Springs,” Ziebell said.

“We fielded 70 overs yesterday, so it was a long day in the field so to come out today and get the win, it’s full credit to the boys.

“We played Casino at 8.30am (Sunday morning) and we lost the toss and got sent in to bat.

“The pitch was a bit wet, but we managed to get 170 and kept them to 150.

“We batted first against Lennox and par was about 170.

“Connor McDowell batted right to the end and got 92. I got out early and Alec (Williams) did too and we’ve been scoring most the runs so for a young kid like him to come out and do that was a big performance.

“He hasn’t played a whole lot of first grade so good on him.

“We managed 6/162 and squeezed them and kept them under the runs.”

Lennox fell short at 6/142 at the end of play.

“As a unit we’ve really gelled together,” Ziebell said.

“We are all up and buzzing.

“We are on a roll and feeling good going forward.”

Coastal League

Cudgen bowls to a Lennox Head batsman

In round 12 Murwillumbah on 9/225 was chased down by Terranora on 6/227. Lachlan Everest top scored for the Panthers on 55 with Bruce Condon falling just shy of his half ton, Jesse Edwards was the best of the Terranora bowlers taking 3/44.

Dave Russell top scored for Terranora on 77, Steve Harris got 45, while Travis Antonelli did a great job bowling for Murbah,

taking 3/28, but it wasn’t quite enough to get the win.

Cudgen had a bye.

Byron Bay played Pottsville at Byron with Potty winning the toss and going in to bat.

At the end of the 40 overs Pottsville was 5/167 with Reynolds not out (44) and Tripp not out (42) top scorers.

Byron chased them down at 5/171 with three overs to spare.

James Shean was the best of the bowlers taking 2/20 for the Pelicans.

The Thirstiers played Lennox at Bilambil, winning the toss and sending the visitors into bat.

Lennox finished the 40 overs at 7/223 with Andrew McKay taking 3/42.

The Thirstiers couldn’t quite catch them, making 201 with Chris Humphreys best of the batsmen on 45 not out.

Thirsty Thirds In round 13 the Murwillumbah Cougars played Pottsville at home with the Cougars up first.

The Cougars finished their 40 overs on 8/269 with no details available. Steve Allen took 3/64 and Ned Russell got 2/26.

Pottsville couldn’t catch them, finishing their 40 at 9/199 with Adrian Lanyon the pick of the batsmen on 43.

Cabarita played the Cudgen Stingers at Black Rocks and Caba went to town, with Saddler (55) Hirst and Glynn (50) all retiring not out and Lionel Foster top scoring on 68 before Jake Hall took him down, with Caba declaring at 7/337.

The Stingers had their work cut out and opener Mick Hall gave it a nudge, retiring on 50, but the boys only managed 10/156 giving Caba an easy victory.

The Cudgen Hornets v Cudgen Wasps played a 20 20 game so they could watch the first grade T20 final, with the Hornets bowled out for 120 and the Wasps taking the win with 201. Dylan Brown was, according to Hornets skipper Dean Fogg, man of the match.

There were no details on the Schooners v Murwillumbah Cubs game.

Rosser and Kershler in NICC triumph A massive congrats to Cudgen’s Pat Rosser and Anthony Kerschler (assistant coach) who were part of the NSW team that triumphed at the National Indigenous Cricket Championships, like their teammates in the T20 winning their fourth consecutive title in Alice Springs. Well done boys on another great victory.

Tweed Sailors win Corsair Australian National Championships

At the helm

with Bill Fenelon

LAST WEEKEND five Corsair yachts and 15 members of the Tweed Valley Sailing Club travelled south to the NSW Central Coast to compete with 18 Corsairs in the 44th Australian National Championships at Budgewoi Sailing Club.

There were high expectations in the challenge for the current champions eager to win the title.

The Corsair is a 16-foot (4.8 metre) fibreglass sailing dinghy, fully rigged with jib and spinnaker, which offers excellent close, one design racing, with a crew of three and in addition is a comfortable cruising boat. Designed by Alan Payne (who also designed 3 America’s Cup yachts including Gretel and G2), the Corsair is an all-round performance centre boarder ideal for Australian conditions. First sailed in 1966, the class has spread across the nation with approximately 500 boats being built.

TVSC has adopted this class as it is ideally suited to conditions on the Tweed River. The Club has regular racing with up to 15 boats. As the boat requires a

3-person crew, there is ample room for beginners to join in without needing to own a boat.

Conditions on the first day of the competition were tough, with winds gusting to 25 knots with a short steep chop, but all boats made it through the 4 races without serious incident. Day two was a little more relaxed and everybody enjoyed a pleasant afternoon sailing on the lake.

Current champions, Aaron Hunt, Ryan Arkinstall and Liam Buckley, sailing “Tenacious”, took the title, getting the bullet in four of the six races proving their dominance of the fleet. 2nd place went to Budgewoi local and previous Australian Champion, Geoff Beauchamp, daughter Ruby Beauchamp and Dorren Vandersteen on “Bayonet”. Third place went to Tweed Corsair “Charlotte” sailed by Justin Johnson, daughter Emily Johnson and Hollingsword Wolul (all the way from Vanuatu).

Aaron has sailed Corsairs since the ‘70s and has won 8 Corsair National Titles. His recent arrival at TVSC has lifted the local fleet. He is a major sponsor and supporter of the club through his chandlery business Boating and RV.

Tweed boats placed 1st “Tenacious”, 3rd “Charlotte”, 6th “Keenas” (Mark Reynolds, Craig Foley and Harriette Raleigh), 7th Swell Lady (Monique Smith, Matt Andrews and Deborah Flannery), 8th “Minnow” (Bill Fenelon, Courtney Tiller and Alicia Szlawski).

It was a great weekend of sailing and close competition with the entire fleet finishing each race only minutes apart. It was a fantastic result for Tweed Valley Sailing Club, for the first time since its foundation in 2011, winning an Australian Championship. TVSC teams supported each other and enjoying their sport. To compete in the Corsair Nationals was a great way to start 2020 for our club.

The next sailing event on the Tweed River will be on the 16th of February, Race 4 of the NS14 and Laser Class Championship. The next Corsair Class Championship race will be Heat 4 on the 1st of March. Racing is on the Fingal Reach and can be viewed at close range from anywhere along the riverbank.

The Tweed Valley Sailing Club always welcomes new members and no experience (or boat) is needed.
