Scammer dupes elderly resident out of thousands to carry on as she thought it was a neighbourly tip. “After a few more messages chatting with the person, where she answered my grilling questions convincingly, I decided to claim my win and see what happened. My neighbour said she had won $150,000. “On the claims page it offered a choice of wins. Still sceptical, I chose $100,000 for which Powerball asked for a $3,000 fee to administrate the cheque which would be sent to me. “I didn’t pay, but wrote to my neighbour and asked her if she had to pay a fee for her cheque. “She confirmed she had paid $5,000 for her cheque, so believing her as you would a good friend nearby, I sent Powerball the money. “They didn’t ask for my bank details which I would have refused anyway, so I asked for theirs. “Their BSB and account numbers were transmitted to me immediately and I received an acknowledgement and information that my cheque would arrive by special courier on Monday, September 6. “I contacted her several times and at one stage hinted about scamming. “She answered: ‘Are you trying to say this is a scam? I’ll show you my bank book with the money added to my balance.’ “Being under lockdown I chose to believe her because I couldn’t visit her. “I also took a note of everything, including their webpage, the tracking number they sent with instructions to track my cheque package every six hours.” The resident eventually phoned her step-daughter, whose immediate reaction was “it’s a scam”.
“But when I described the correspondence I’d been having since Friday with my friend, and I added I couldn’t call her a liar because she is such a nice person, my step-daughter hesitated and said, ‘Well if that cheque does arrive tomorrow, ring me and I will take you down to the bank’.” The resident then received a message alleging to be from Powerball to say “Australian Customs” want $45,500 to clear the cheque. The resident eventually decided to contact her neighbour by phone and was informed that her friend knew nothing of the emails and revealing the scam. “The news is not good,” her neighbours eventually told her. “Your neighbour doesn’t know a thing about this.” The resident was convinced for four days that she’d been talking to an old friend and was out of pocket by $3,000. “It hit me like a black bomb and I have been a mental mess since,” she said. “I have reported this to the police and the man who spoke to me gave me a government page to report to. “For one moment there I said to myself ‘How do you know that was really the police?’”

By Jonathon Howard SCAMMERS ARE stepping up their efforts to dupe Tweed seniors using a clever email hack to pose as family or friends. One 88-year-old resident living at Murwillumbah’s Mountain View Retirement Village was recently cheated out of thousands of dollars after her email was hacked. The woman, whose name has been withheld, thought she was speaking to a “dear neighbour” in the village, but instead her emails were being used against her. The experience has left her a “mental mess” and she wanted to warn others of the dangers scammers pose. “Last Friday morning, I received an email from one of my friends here at the village, asking me how I was in this lockdown period,” she said. “We are very friendly here and helping each other to cope with lockdown, so I replied thanking her for her contact and asking the same question. “She replied she was great and very excited about her win on Powerball. Had I heard about it? I said ‘no’ and offered my congratulations. “She replied saying her cheque arrived ‘last week’ and I said I hope you banked it immediately. She reassured me she had and ‘did you claim your win?’ “I have never taken out a Powerball ticket and was very sceptical. She gave me the Powerball link to their winner’s page and told me to see for myself. “I followed the link and there was my name among the winners ‘unclaimed’ the list was long and I didn’t recognise any name except my friend’s as claimed.” It was at this point the elderly resident was sceptical of the offer, but decided

Council wins appeal on Terranora development changes Tweed Shire Council Mayor Chris Cherry told The Weekly. “In Terranora, the court found that Council’s argument, that it was not substantially the same development, was correct. “This modification was mainly about moving where the casual open space was provided, from being along the ridgeline, to down at the bottom of the development.” Mayor Cherry said the decision “protects all of those in the community who built their houses across the road from this area, knowing it was going to be open space and the views would be maintained.” “It is also a win for the wider community who can now enjoy the walking tracks that were planned into this development along the ridgeline, allowing all to enjoy these magnificent views,” she said.
“Council is often criticised for spending ratepayers’ funds on legal expenses. “This last year our legal expenses were $688,000. “For an organisation with a budget of around $230 million that is a very small amount, and about the same money it would cost to resurface the car park at Knox Park. “Council is about so much more than roads, rates and rubbish. “Going to court for the community is about protecting where we live.” The 101-lot development can still go ahead as originally approved.

By Jo Kennett TWEED SHIRE Council has won a court appeal against its refusal of proposed modifications to a Terranora development in a judgement handed down on September 1. Horseshoe Properties Pty Ltd had taken Council to the Land and Environment Court to appeal its refusal of an application to modify a residential subdivision at Lot 469 Henry Lawson Drive, Terranora. The developers wanted to increase the number of lots from 101 to 110, extend an approved road, and relocate a 5.3-hectare public reserve from a ridge to another location. However, the court ruled that the appeal be dismissed. “The win has seen Council stand up to defend our planning controls and the community that have put them there,”

Education flyer lacks specifics Kerosene Bay question
I write to endorse the concerns expressed by Chris Goudkamp in your edition of September 9. I too have been privileged to spend a lifetime teaching – at universities, colleges, schools and churches, in Canada and Australia; and more recently via the internet. This does not, of course, make me any more of an authority on the machinations of the Education Department: and the same is true of the series of degrees I have collected along the way. However, there is one thing I can say for sure, and that is that for me teaching has been a source of great joy; and I fear that the proposed institution – and I use the word advisedly – will in its operation be of little joy to students, teachers or parents – with the possible exception of the administrator who will be manager of this institution. The “Project update” flyer that was distributed last week – to which Chris referred – contains within it an element of truth which the Department may well live to regret. Because they are “committed to keeping the community informed about this important project” they are proposing a “virtual information session”, but “virtual” consultation is all we have ever had. In the “National Dictionary” (the Macquarie) used in many schools, the word “virtual” is defined as “being so in force or effect, although not such in fact” and that is exactly what we have been offered from the start. The feedback questionnaire which I, in common with many others, filled in some months ago was so lacking in specifics and so full of “motherhood statements” about quality in education, that it served only to confirm the correctness of what the Department had already to do. John Tyman, Murwillumbah Tweed Valley
In response to last week’s question about Kerosene Bay, I have heard two distinct explanations over the years: 1: In the days before electricity in the Fingal area, hessian shacks were lit by kero lamps at night thus casting a glow on the water. 2: When the first cedar-getters arrived in the 1840s, the water in the river was so clear that it was said to be like kerosene – take your pick! Gregor Manson, Wardrop Valley

I mean Harvey Nor man in Sunnyside? Murwillumbah will certainly become a bigger place with time. We have many unoccupied shops, yet one seriously aggressive retailer is going to attack? We have two very respectable retailers that already exist in the white goods/computer industry and they have told me that because of the high rent at Sunnyside they have a bloody chance! I n n o t t o o m a ny y e a r s, Murwillumbah will have a second bridge onto Commercial Road and Woolworths will have their spot at the old bowls club, that’s progress, in a very desirable town. We have at least 24 known places to purchase coffee, let’s support those that are part of our society and hold down some stability, and do actually deliver? Greg Church, Nobbys Creek
Pollies are in hiding
Talk about ‘dumb and dumber’, with the NSW Premier going into hiding as the NSW corruption watchdog looks deeper into her and her former MP boyfriend’s misconduct in public office and the mess she’s has made of managing the Covid-19 crisis in Sydney and NSW rockets through the roof. And, as our 2009 miracle PM avoids every facet of leadership, as his government slides into no man’s land and the dirty tricks game.
What does Labor’s behind the scenes factional faceless power brokers do in a rapidly diminishing climate of trust in government? Hand grenade their beloved leader by parachuting Senator Kristina Kenneally, who lives on an elite exclusive island off the Northern Beaches of Sydney, into the multicultural safe Labor seat of Fowler, Western Sydney to bury her. In the last Federal Election, Kenneally was parachuted into the NSW Senate by Bill Shorten, then aspiring PM, as his personal token photo opportunity woman. Such conduct demonstrates the total hypocrisy of the idea of representative government. The two-party system runs everything, including the voting system that always elects one or other of them. Because of the full preferential federal voting system, to have a valid vote, the final choice at the bottom of the ballot ticket is always the choice between Labor or Liberal/ National coalition. Terry Sharples, Tweed Heads
What makes a strong climate plan?
Each week in the Tweed Valley Weekly we see messages and greetings from our local political leaders saying: “On your side”, “Working for you!” “Have your say” or “Getting things done”. We a l s o h ave e l e c t i o n s o n the horizon: 2021 NSW Local Government election on December 4; Australian federal election on or before 21 May 2022; and 2023 NSW state election March 25. Right now we also have a climate emergency at our doorstep. From unprecedented bushfires, droughts, floods and heat waves in Australia to almost daily reports of extreme weather events across devastated communities in Europe, Asia and America. We in the Tweed, the state and Australia right now have the resources, the climate, the skills and

the technology needed to be a leader in the global race to address climate change here and abroad. Over 90 per cent of Australians want government action on climate change (Lowy Institute 2021). Government has 10 times the power to address climate change than private people and private enterprise (Bill Gates 2020). The gap is political leadership and will. So, at the upcoming elections, let’s make sure we let our political candidates know that if they want our vote, they need to be serious about climate action and provide evidence of what action they have and are taking right now. Here are five questions to ask your candidates now and in the lead up to the elections: 1. What action have you taken to implement a just, fair and positive transition out of all fossil fuels as soon as possible? 2. What action have you taken to end all subsidies, public finance and other supports for the oil, coal and gas sectors? 3. What action have you taken in support of real solutions to the climate crisis, like energy efficiency and renewables, rather than false solutions such as carbon capture and storage technologies which are a cover for more mining of coal, oil and gas? 4. The IPPC has just issued a code red – we need to reduce our emissions now. What action have you taken to achieve a bipartisan, federally-legislated net z ero emissions target by 2050 or earlier with a commitment to significant milestones of 50 per cent or more by 2030? 5. What action have you taken to hold big polluters accountable for the real costs of their pollution and the clean-up of mine sites? Have you supported a carbon fee on our biggest polluters and a climate dividend given to every Australian household?
TOP DOG ACADEMY
A strong climate plan would produce positive answers to each of these questions from the candidates who are ‘on our side’, ‘working for us’, ‘hearing our message’ and ‘getting things done’. Such a plan will earn our votes. We are watching and waiting for political leadership in this crisis too! Ian Hunter, Tweed Heads
Dementia Action Week
The number of Australians living with dementia is close to half a million – a number that is set to double in the next 25 years – with an estimated 1.6 million people involved in their care. In New South Wales there are an estimated 157,000 people living with dementia. Many people living with dementia can continue to live well after their diagnosis, which is why the theme for Dementia Action Week 2021, September 20-26, is ‘A little support makes a big difference’. The national awareness raising campaign will continue to lead the discussion about discrimination, which we know has a big impact on people living with dementia, their families and carers. This year Dementia Australia will provide information and tips to encourage all Australians to increase their understanding of dementia and learn how they can make a difference to the lives of people around them who are impacted – and to help eliminate discrimination. The good news is that a lot can be done to improve the experience for people living with dementia and carers. To find out more please visit www.dementia.org.au.

Council rejects premise of holiday park petition Hacienda appeal falls By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Council says it “rejects the premise” of a petition that was recently launched following a Council decision to overhaul the management contracts at four Tweed Holidays Parks. Managers at Tweed Heads, Fingal Head, Kingscliff North and Pottsville North were given six months’ notice recently, but all will have the opportunity to retender for their respective roles, in what a Council spokesperson said was a need to update an “outdated model”. The petition was launched via Change. org by Missi Jan and is seeking 500 signatures to “save our jobs”. The petition states that the council has “advised there are new tenders coming out which will void the previous management from selling the signed contracts and will void their six-year contracts with Tweed Shire Council”. “This petition is to save the previous managers contracts and for the Tweed Shire Council to adhere to the agreements of the already amazing managers that run our Tweed Holiday Parks on the frontline in a professional and experienced code of conduct with years and years of experience between all park managers,” the petition reads. “This decision made by our local Tweed Shire Council without consultation with its current managers is unfair and unethical. “Not at any time have any of these park managers broken the Tweed Shire Council business protocols, if anything these managers are a credit to the Tweed Shire Council.” In a statement to The Weekly, a Council spokesperson said it “rejects the premise of the petition circulating on social media”.
flat in High Court
The online petition had attracted around 438 signatures at the time of print, but Tweed Shire Council says it rejects the premise of the petition
“Tweed Holiday Parks (THP) recently commissioned a review of existing management contracts at its holiday parks, which found some to be outdated – some dating back 20-plus years – and requiring significant amendments,” the Council spokesperson said. “As a result, THP is overhauling the management contracts at four of its parks – at Tweed Heads, Fingal Head, Kingscliff North and Pottsville North – to bring them in to line with more contemporary business practices, placing less risk on business operations and providing more surety for all parties. “To introduce these new agreements, existing contractual arrangements are required to be terminated, with six months’ notice given to all parties in keeping with contractual requirements.” Council said a formal tender process will commence for the four holiday parks in September. “With all existing managers invited and encouraged to participate in this process,” the Council spokesperson said.
“The remaining three holiday parks at Kingscliff Beach, Hastings Point and Pottsville South, will also go on to this new contract when their existing agreement expires in January 2022, ensuring all seven parks are under the same contractual arrangements. “The decisions made by Council are done with the best interests of ratepayers in mind and to ensure the ongoing good management of Tweed Holiday Parks, both now and into the future.” Council said profits from Tweed Holiday Parks are directly reinvested into the community and used for foreshore protection and restoration works right along the Tweed coastline. “Optimising the viability and profitability of our holiday parks maximises the amount of funds available for foreshore projects, to improve dune and beach health and benefit everyone who uses the Tweed’s beaches,” the Council spokesperson said.
SEVERAL COMPANIES that operate the Hacienda Caravan Park at Chinderah have recently lost an appeal in the High Court, after being ordered to pay more than $2.3 million in compensation plus interest to residents following the sale of waterfront villas as “permanent residences” despite the sites not having development consent for permanent accommodation. The Weekly was contacted by several Chinderah residents following the court ruling, who shed light on what the court described as “unconscionable conduct” by the defendants. The villas were marketed to consumers under the pretence that they were suitable for permanent residents, even though the sites on which they were located did not have the relevant planning consent. NSW Fair Trading brought proceedings in the Supreme Court of NSW after a series of complaints from consumers who purchased villas believing they would be able to live there permanently. In 2019, the Supreme Court found in favour of NSW Fair Trading and ordered Jonval Builders Pty Ltd, Hacienda Caravan Park Pty Ltd and John Allan Willmott to pay compensation, interest and costs after the court found that the defendant companies had engaged in “misleading and deceptive conduct” and that all three defendants had engaged in “unconscionable conduct”. In 2020, the NSW Court of Appeal upheld the Supreme Court’s decision, including an order that the three parties pay $2,353,926 in compensation plus interest arising from the sale of movable dwellings, called villas, located on waterfront sites along the Tweed River. Minister for Better Regulation Kevin Anderson said that this is a great example of NSW Fair Trading acting to protect the interests of consumers that have been misled. “This is consumer regulation working exactly as it’s meant to – government going into bat for consumers that were victims of unscrupulous players in the market,” Mr Anderson said. “These operators acted unconscionably, leading to consumers, including retirees, paying a premium for what they believed were permanent waterfront residences. “I’m glad that the consumers will be properly compensated.” The Weekly attempted to contact Hacienda Caravan Park, but did not receive a return call prior to the print deadline.

Mixed reviews for new Murwillumbah school campus By Jonathon Howard C O N C E P T D E S I G N S fo r Murwillumbah’s new education campus were revealed this week and were met with mixed reviews from residents and parents. The images that were shared online prompted concerns from residents, including the loss of options for local families and fears around staff cuts. “A massive backward step for public education in Murwillumbah,” said one local via social media. “Planned by people who have no understanding of or regard for the local community. A huge black mark for the NSW Education officials and the NSW Government. “There are no sound educational reasons to do this.”
Others took their views further saying they were unsure why the school campus was going ahead in the first place. “Don’t actually know anyone that is happy that we won’t have more than one public school in the area,” said another local. “Not all kids like Murwillumbah High, same as I’m sure there are kids that don’t like Wollumbin.
Mixing them together could be bad, and what will happen to all the teachers? “I’m sure when all these schools become one, we will have too many teachers for one school.” The comments follow concerns from the NSW Teachers Federation who highlighted in The Weekly last week that staffing levels will be slashed once the campus opens. NSW Education Minister Sarah Mitchell said in a media statement that she was “thrilled with the new look”. Minister Mitchell said the new Murwillumbah Education Campus will include a co-located primary school, high school and school community health facilities as part
of the multimillion-dollar education project. “These designs have been created after months of stakeholder consultation, including a community survey, information hub and staff workshops,” Ms Mitchell said. “Thank you to the community for their ongoing engagement in the project, which is helping create something incredible for generations of Murwillumbah students. “The designs are unlike anything we have built in NSW, they show beautiful landscaping with outdoor learning areas, world-class classrooms and facilities for sports and performing arts. “The campus is about providing the best place for students to learn, it is visionary, exciting and will be the heart of this community.” Member of the NSW Legislative Council for the North Coast, Ben Franklin, said these designs will be a huge benefit to the community in showing what the school will provide for students. “Very few projects have this level of engagement, and this will create a home for our students to learn and grow,” Mr Franklin said.
Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said the new campus will be the “pride of the community” once completed. “This campus will be the jewel of education for the North Coast, rivalling some of the country’s best schools, providing an incredible
place to nurture students so they can achieve their best,” Mr Provest said. The concept designs will be available to view at a virtual information session, which will be available online until 5pm on Friday, September 17. Member for Lismore Janelle Saffin said the community expected better. “Given this is the expected model for future school mergers, as the Minister had said, we all expected this to be the gold standard,” she said. “And instead it looks pretty ordinary. “We were all told in the community there would be this grand performing
arts, there’s stand along performing arts centre and I was told it would be four star energy rating, why not six stars if it’s supposed to be the gold standard.” Ms Saffin said there was a clear need to “go back to the drawing board”. “The government needs to do better,” she said. “All we get is disappointment after disappointment. “ Wh e r e ’s t h e d e t a i l s, t h e community expects more than a few artist’s concept designs. “My criticism of this process has been a lack of community consultation, which continues to dog this process.”

Tweed Shire Council wishes to recognise the generations of the local Aboriginal people of the Bundjalung Nation who have lived in and derived their physical and spiritual needs from the forests, rivers, lakes and streams of this beautiful valley over many thousands of years as the traditional owners and custodians of these lands.

In brief ... Financial assistance for energy bills Households across the Tweed needing help paying their energy bills will be able to access up to $1,600 per year in financial support during the current COVID-19 restrictions. The NSW Government is increasing the caps under the Energy Accounts Payments Assistance (EAPA) scheme to ease some cost-of-living pressures. If you’re facing hardship, you’re able to access up to $1,600 per year in bill support by logging onto the Service NSW website and register for an EAPA energy voucher assessment. The EAPA assessment threshold has been temporarily increased from $300 to $400 per assessment. EAPA representatives can also help customers to contact their energy retailers to get customers onto hardship plans. The NSW Government also offers six other rebates to help with energy bills which can be found at www.energysaver.nsw.gov.au
In brief ... Report Bush Stone-curlew sightings Signage was installed recently at Robert Dixon Park at Kingscliff to help the community differentiate between the 2 types of black cockatoos that visit the Tweed: the threatened Glossy black-cockatoo and the Yellow-tailed black-cockatoo.
Rare Glossy black-cockatoo portrayed New artwork and informative signage at Robert Dixon Park at Kingscliff draws attention to the rare Glossy black-cockatoo. Glossy black-cockatoos (Calyptorhynchus lathami), also affectionately known as Glossies, are listed as vulnerable in NSW. The Tweed is lucky enough to be home to both the Glossy and the Yellow-tailed black-cockatoo however, there isn’t enough reliable data to confirm Glossy black-cockatoo numbers. Estimates indicate there could be as few as 50 birds across the whole of the Tweed. Pairs and small groups have been recorded on the Tweed Coast, with Robert Dixon Park and Cudgen Headland at Kingscliff one of the few places they are regularly spotted feeding and coming down to drink.
Look out for the new signs in Kingscliff advising residents and motorists to keep an eye out for our curious Bush Stone-curlews. A new bus stop sign has been installed at the northern end of Kingscliff Street in an effort to protect our loved birds. Report all sightings of endangered Bush Stone-curlews at tweed.nsw.gov.au/bush-stone-curlews
Council has commissioned artwork from 2 local artists to highlight the plight of the Glossy black-cockatoo and has also installed an informative sign to help people differentiate between the 2 black-cockatoos. The artwork installed on the toilet block at Robert Dixon Park is by Bundjalung/Yugambeh artist and graphic designer Christine Slabb and local artist Faith Falkner. The artwork and signage was produced with funds received from the NSW Environmental Trust.

It’s a Brett Street wrap for Jordan Jordan Breen is a self-confessed wrap fan and it has nothing to do with music. The Youth Engagement Officer for Connect Northern Rivers is a regular at the Brett Street CAFE (Community Access For Everyone) and on top of his menu list is the range of wraps. “I have been coming here since about October last year and had a wrap every time – that’s a lot of wraps,” Jordan said. “I just love them, especially the chicken wraps and would eat 3 to 4 a week.
Brett Street CAFE regular Jordan Breen is rapt with the café’s wraps.
“They are really good value and the service is quick which is good when you are on a lunch break. “The Brett Street CAFE is just a short walk from where I work in Wharf Street and there’s a relaxed informal atmosphere in the civic centre plaza.” Brett Street CAFE manager Allan Gibson said the wraps where fast becoming a signature dish of the café and are a feature of the new menu recently launched. “We have expanded our range of wraps featuring beef, ham and chicken plus crispy bacon as an added extra, to include gluten-fee, low carb and vegetarian wraps,” Allan said. “We even offer a breakfast wrap, ideal to go with our freshly roasted coffee from a local coffee supplier. “We can cater for morning teas for your workplace, social group or volunteer organisation by simply emailing us 48 hours prior to the day and for those in a hurry, just contact us in advance and we can make for your order.” The Brett Street CAFE is also accepting Dine and Discover vouchers for takeaway meals with the program now extended for participating operators and outlets until 30 June 2022. Check out the new menu at tweed.nsw.gov.au/brett-street-cafe. The café is located at the Tweed Heads Civic and Cultural Centre plaza complex and is open from Monday to Friday 8:30 am to 2 pm.
Ken Done exhibition at the Gallery sure to be popular A new exhibition by one of Australia’s most recognisable artists, Ken Done AM, titled Up to 80 will be on display at Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre from Friday 1 October to Sunday 28 November 2021. The exhibition will bring together a vivid collection of works completed by Done from the last two decades. Known for his vibrant and colourful depictions of iconic Australian scenes from Sydney Harbour and sun-drenched beaches to tropical coral reefs and the outback, Done captures the essence of how it feels to be Australian. Done held his first exhibition at the age of 40, and since then, he has held more than 100 solo shows, including major exhibitions in Australia, Europe, Japan and the USA. His works have been displayed in the Archibald, Sulman, Wynne, Blake, and Dobell Prizes. Now at the age of 81, he continues to work with the same passion
and vigour, working from his idyllic harbourside studio “the cabin” at Chinamans Beach in Sydney. With no plans to retire, Done will wield his brushes and oil crayons until he “falls off the twig”. Gallery Director Susi Muddiman OAM said, “We are delighted to host this exhibition of beautiful work by iconic and well-loved Australian artist Ken Done.” “This exhibition will represent many of the artist’s favourite and best-loved subjects, and I am certain the colourful and fun works will bring joy to our visitors – something we all need a bit of right now.” For workshop and event details, including bookings, visit the Gallery website artgallery.tweed.nsw.gov.au Right: Ken Done AM, Ultramarine coral head 2010–2018, oil and acrylic on canvas, 150 x 200cm.

Weed Invasion Curve Regional Control Authority Did you know that Rous County Council is the control authority for weeds in the Northern Rivers? Covering Tweed, Byron, Ballina, Lismore, Kyogle and Richmond Valley Council areas, we work with a wide range of stakeholders to combat the spread of targeted weeds.
Weed Invasion Curve This graph shows how distribution and abundance of weeds plays a significant role in how we act upon infestations. Essentially the most cost-effective way to minimise the impact of weeds is to stop them becoming established in the first place. This is why we focus the majority of our efforts on prevention and early eradication. Weeds in the following four invasion phases are the responsibility of the landholder.
Prevention At the prevention phase, we are working to stop highrisk weeds from breaching the area. As a landholder you can prevent outbreaks by familiarising yourself with high-risk weeds and learn how they may be unknowingly brought onto your property.
Eradication At the eradication phase, there have been sightings of high-priority weeds in the area. Our focus here is on promoting these weeds to stakeholders with the goal of finding and eradicating the weed before it becomes established.
Containment At the containment phase, weeds have already become widespread in the district- the priority is to prevent it from spreading further, especially into regions free of the weed.
Asset protection Once a weed becomes established, the focus shifts to asset protection- of farmland, industry, recreational areas, and natural ecosystems. Many of the high-priority weeds we are currently tackling have resulted from the introduction of foreign plants or ‘collectables’ which have unintentionally spread from people’s gardens - it is important to understand that the introduction, sale and movement of priority weeds is prohibited under NSW legislation.
If you discover a weed that you are unsure about, go to our website – www.rous.nsw.gov.au or NSW Weedwise for assistance and to find out if you need to report it. The NSW Weedwise app can help you identify weeds and provides information on their biosecurity status and recommended control methods. Any new or unidentifiable weeds should be reported to Rous County Council.

Natural, drug-free headache and migraine approach
Ph: 0475
Excavator destroyed in Duranbah blaze “That heavy machinery has a lot of hydraulics and hot engines.” Mr Middlebrook said they use foam on fuel fires, but the hydraulics and diesel tank were underneath covers which made access difficult. “We had to wait for it to cool down to get more foam in to completely suppress the residue flame and hot spots,” he said. “The operator said he has had experiences where a hose burst and sprayed hydraulic fluid onto the manifold and it caught on fire, but he wasn’t sure if it was something similar. “He was supposed to be clearing some trees; I think they were camphor laurel. “It’s going to be interesting to get it out of where it is because it is real four-wheel drive country.”

AN EXCAVATOR was unable to be saved after it caught fire on a Duranbah property on Monday afternoon, September 13. C u d g e n Ru r a l F i r e Service (RFS) captain Troy Middlebrook said the fire happened in rough country on a property just off Andersons Road. “It was down a dirt road that joins properties that run down towards Clothiers Creek,” he said. “It was difficult to get to because it was rough country, but we have four-wheel drive trucks in the RFS. “It was fully involved when we arrived with large flames and it had spread into the surrounding vegetation, so we extinguished that using foam and then Tweed Coast
arrived and their job was to ferry water to us. “It was a good spot because there was a lot of greenery and no wind so the fire didn’t take off too much.” T h e o p e r at o r o f t h e machine was a contractor from Queensland who was just setting up to do some tree clearing the next day. “The operator told me he had a full tank with 500 litres of diesel and he was just moving the excavator to start work,” Mr Middlebrook said. “He said the fire seemed to start at the back of the excavator where the hydraulics and fuel tanks are. “He had an automatic fire suppression system built in on board, but he couldn’t contain it and he said he got out and off it went.

Council takes lead role in Keeping Cats Safe at Home program By Jonathon Howard A NEW project to keep cats at home and give our native wildlife a break, has recently launched across NSW and Tweed Shire Council is working at the forefront of the project. Cats are instinctive killers and incredibly efficient predators who will hunt even when they are wellfed at home and especially at night. In fact, each roaming pet cat in Australia is estimated to kill on average 115 native prey animals each year, including mammals, birds and reptiles - whilst their owners are often none the wiser. To address this, The Keeping Cats Safe at Home program has launched,
which has received $2.5 million in funding via the Environment Trust grant, and will engage council representatives, veterinarians, companion animal groups, cat owners, the general community and wildlife groups. Tweed Shire Council is among the 10 urban and regional councils selected to provide the program’s rollout with education and advice for communities on the importance of containing their cats safely at home. Additionally, school curriculumlinked resources will be developed. RSPCA NSW CEO Steve Coleman said the mammoth four-year project is designed to change attitudes and behaviours in the community towards responsible cat ownership.
“We are excited to be working with our council partners and communities closely over the next four years to initiate real change in the way people care for cats as companion animals,” Mr Coleman said. “Our job is to help people help animals, and in doing that we can ensure our furry feline friends will live longer, happier, healthier lives and so too will our native birds and wildlife.” NSW Environment Minister Matt Kean said the new initiative is hoped to curb the toll on native wildlife. “The Keeping Cats Safe at Home program will help protect our unique wildlife, with domestic cats estimated to kill around 67 million
native mammals, 83 million native reptiles and 80 million native birds in Australia each year,” Mr Kean said. “We all love living close to bushland and even though we love our pets, we know native species and domestic cats don’t co-exist well, so we need to make sure our native wildlife is protected. Minister for Local Government Shelley Hancock said all pet owners need to be made aware of best practice when it comes to keeping animals and native wildlife safe. “Local councils have an important part to play in looking after their communities, including creatures big and small, as well as reinforcing responsible pet ownership,” Mrs Hancock said.

FOX TRAPPING will t a ke p l a c e o n C row n Reserve to the north and south of Cudgera Creek at Hastings Point until Friday, September 17, according to Tweed Shire Council, who are moving to reduce the pest species’ numbers. Council said the trapping and other programs are needed to protect native fauna, including threatened birds such as the Beach Stone-curlews. A highly-experienced specialist contractor has been tasked to carry out all works to reduce the overall fox population at Hastings Point. Council’s pest management and wildlife protection program leader, Pamela Gray, said these works were important to ensure the protection of native wildlife and particularly the local Beach Stone-curlews, which are entering their breeding season. “It’s crucial fox control programs are implemented to reduce fox numbers to allow the recovery of our Beach Stone-curlews at Hastings Point, which is home to one of just 9 known breeding pairs across NSW,” Ms Gray said. “Without a reduction in current fox numbers, the Beach Stone-curlews are at risk of local extinction.” M s G ray u rg e d t h e community to heed the warnings and look out for signage which will be in place at all entrances to trapping and control sites. The traps are camouflaged and can be difficult to see. Any domestic pets caught in the traps will be taken to Council’s interim animal holding facility. Council said there are fees associated with the retrieval of registered domestic pets For any questions about t h e s e w o r k s, c o n t a c t Council’s Program Leader Pest Management Wildlife Protection on (02) 6670 2400.

Warning after suspicious fire at Cabarita By Jo Kennett VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS were called to extinguish what they say was a suspicious fire in the Cudgen Nature Reserve behind Cabarita Beach on Thursday night, September 9, that had the potential to threaten nearby homes. Cudgen Rural Fire Service (RFS) captain Troy Middlebrook said members of the public found the fire and called triple zero at around 8pm. “It was down the beach access just north of Cabarita on the eastern side of the Cudgen Reserve; they call it Martha’s Hole,” he said. “We couldn’t find any evidence of a campfire, but we believe it was suspicious; that’s the first suspicious type of fire in our area this year. “It was in the evening, so it was cooler and there was no wind, so it was easily contained and then we spent an hour blacking it all out so it didn’t take off again.” The fire burned out an area of about 2,500 square metres in the bush between the car park and the beach. “If it was during the middle of the day with a northerly wind blowing, that has the potential to push that into the houses in Cypress Avenue and Cabarita,” Mr Middlebrook told The Weekly. “Our control centre will contact police and national parks – because they own the reserve – to let them know it’s suspicious. “Tweed Coast has a lot more urban interface so there is much more danger from fires there. “Cudgen is pretty green, so Cudgen RFS’ main concern is the strip of bush at Fingal and Cudgen Nature Reserve running into the back of Cabarita. “With the koala fence up that stopped a lot of fires there; people used to dump cars there and set them on fire.” Mr Middlebrook said it was vital residents called triple zero immediately if they spotted an unattended fire.
“Spring is our main fire season and our soil moisture is quite bad at the moment because we haven’t had any recent rain,” he said. “If we get a hot day with northerly winds it’s prime fire danger. “People need to make sure they have a permit before they light a fire and that they are aware of the weather conditions and understand what the fire danger ratings are. “Yesterday [Monday, September 13] they were suspended until midnight because we had a high fire rating. “It was warm, windy and the soil moisture was drying out, which plays a huge role in fire behaviour. “Part of the responsibility with a fire permit is to stay there and monitor it and most of the fires we attend are fires lit by landowners that escape their control. “It can be a miscalculation, they light up a pile and it takes off, or people underestimate the weather conditions.” The bushfire danger period began on September 1. If you are planning a burn you will need approval from Tweed Shire Council and a permit from your nearest fire brigade (RFS or Fire and Rescue NSW).
Firefighters managed to contain the fire in a short period of time due to the conditions

Tweed can now jab its way to freedom

Available Wed- Fri
LIFE CERTAINLY isn’t back to normal, but it has taken two very big steps closer in the last few days. The NSW Government ended the Tweed lockdown and NSW Nationals Leader and Deputy Premier John Barilaro negotiated a surprise return of the border zone with his Queensland counterpart Steven Miles. Given that only days ago, the Queensland Government was saying the hard border would remain for months, what Barilaro secured from Miles was remarkable. Perhaps they were inspired by the crossparty discussions and agreement between the Tweed Mayor Chris Cherry, Lismore Labor MP Janelle Saffin, Ballina Greens MP Tamara Smith and me, your Tweed Nationals representative, which showed others how this crisis can transcend party political rivalry. What matters is that to lock in these great gains and to get back to that “normal” we crave, we need to do two things. Firstly, we must continue our excellent work to date in keeping the Tweed COVID-free. We should be enormously proud of our remarkable record of staying 100 per cent healthy despite outbreaks to our north, south and west. It says a lot about the Tweed character. So we need to continue wearing masks indoors, we need to continue with social distancing and we need to continue with the frequent hand washing. We also need to continue observing the other restrictions which remain in place, because they are there for a reason and they have kept us safe to date.
The second thing we need to do is jab our way to freedom. The key benchmark set by NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian and her Chief Medical Officer is a 70 per cent double vaccination rate. We are currently close to that figure on single dose vaccination, but only about halfway with the second dose, so there is a fair bit more work to be done. Booking your own vaccination is obviously a great start, but I am also asking you to encourage any friends or family members who may be reluctant, to have faith and do the right thing by the community. The Federal Government is fixing the supply issues of the Pfizer vaccine. The Tweed is getting 66 per cent more doses this month compared to August and 167 per cent more doses in October. The fastest way to book your jab is through the improved website at healthdirect.gov.au. Otherwise contact your regular GP surgery, but please be patient as staff are being overwhelmed with demand at present. Stay safe, take care and help jab the Tweed to freedom.

Cooper to chop his locks for great cause Tumby Rangers finish season on a high note By Jonathon Howard BANORA POINT youngster Cooper Clark has vowed to lop his locks to raise vital funds for the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Great Shave on Saturday, September 25, and he needs your support. Cooper has grown his hair for the past three years and although he does like having long hair, he knows this cause is an important one. “I decided after hearing of a family friend that was diagnosed with this disease to shave my hair to raise funds for the Leukaemia Foundation,” he said. The Weekly recently caught up with Cooper and his mum Stacey Whittle for a photo and to see how he’s going with fundraising. Cooper has set a target of $3,000 and he’s well on his way with more support needed
before the big day. “Please help, I’m taking part in the World’s Greatest Shave, I’m on a mission to save the world from blood cancer,” he said. “Please sponsor me to give families facing blood cancer the emotional and practical support they need “You’ll also fund vital research to help more people survive blood cancers, while improving their quality of life.” Ms Whittle said she was “extremely proud” of her son and admired his sense of community. “I think it’s a great thing he’s doing and I’d like to encourage others to support him,” she said. To donate to Cooper’s funding for Leukaemia Foundation please visit: tinyurl.com/yth68my9
Cooper will let go of his long locks this month for a great cause as part of the World’s Greatest Shave
By Jonathon Howard THE TUMBULGUM Rangers under 14s have finished the season on a high note despite the widespread cancellation of football finals due to COVID-19, which robbed the side of a potential championship this year. The Weekly met up with the side for their final trophy presentation in Tumbulgum on Saturday, September 11, along with a surprise revealed by head coach Richard Secomb. Mr Secomb said he was “extremely proud” of the under 14s Rangers side this year. “The side went undefeated all year and were a shoo-in to win the championship,” he said. “But the lockdown and COVID restrictions robbed the side.” Joint head coach Cindy Secomb, Richard’s wife, said the side found their form in 2021. “We didn’t win a
game last year, but this year we were minor premiers and undefeated,” she said. The couple described the side as a “great bunch of kids”. Mr Secomb made a promise to grow his hair out for the first time in 35 years if the side took the season all the way. He has been married for more than 25 years and even his wife has not seen him with a full head of hair. “It tends to get a little bit frizzled, so I normally cut it very short,” he said. “But I promised to grow it out for the kids if they had a win.” Mr Secomb revealed his luscious locks during the trophy presentation and even dyed his hair blonde and red for extra effect. The reveal was met by gasps from players and parents looking on and even from his wife. “I’ve never seen him with hair this long, it was a surprise for everyone,” she said.
Tumbulgum Rangers under 14s were undefeated in 2021. Inset was the hair reveal by Mr Secomb

Six-year-old burn victim’s nightmare hospital drama By Jo Kennett WHEN POTTSVILLE resident Sailor Walle burnt her foot in a mini-bike accident on Saturday, September 4, it was just the beginning of a nightmare that saw her and her mother waiting in isolation in Queensland for nearly two days to be treated. “Her brother was doubling her on a little motorbike and they fell off and the bike fell on her foot,” Sailor’s grandmother Kim Swain said. “They took her to The Tweed Hospital and they said it was a third degree burn. “It was quite badly swollen and they said she could have sprained it, so they x-rayed it and gave her a Panadol. “They dressed it and said take her home and maybe take her to the doctors the following Thursday, five days later.” Kim said she felt her granddaughter should have been put on antibiotics immediately. “It’s common knowledge that there is such a high chance of infection from burns,” she said. “By Monday there was bruising all around her foot and it was really swollen. “We couldn’t take the bandage off until Monday night to see the burn and then it was quite red and by Tuesday the redness had started to spread up her leg.” Sailor’s mum Kiri took her to a local doctor, who said it was infected and gave her a script for antibiotics. The doctor sent her for another x-ray on Wednesday and fortunately there was nothing broken.
“The doctor didn’t say to go back and by Saturday morning it was looking really bad,” Kim said. “Kiri showed Sailor’s foot to a nurse friend on Sunday morning and she said take her to hospital.” Kiri took Sailor back to The Tweed Hospital, but as they don’t have a burns unit, they sent her to the Gold Coast University Hospital (GCUH). “Sailor needed antibiotics and possible surgery so my daughter rushed to get border passes, but she had to wait for them to come through and of course they didn’t have any clothes apart from what they were wearing,” Kim said. “She had no problem getting through the border, but she had to go back through emergency again when she got there [GCUH]. “She was told at The Tweed Hospital that the doctor was waiting for them at the GCUH, but they weren’t. “It was 3.30pm [Sunday afternoon] when they got there and it was really busy and they had no spare beds. “They said they wouldn’t move her to a bed until a burns specialist saw her, but they sat there until 9pm.” Kim said her daughter was “beside herself ” waiting with Sailor in emergency. “She said it was so busy and there were kids coughing and when you have a burn it’s the last thing you need,” she said. “They are private patients, but there is no private hospital that children can go to on the Gold Coast, they have to go to the Mater in Brisbane, but they don’t have a burns unit.
Sailor had an awful experience with a burnt foot that required surgery
“We rang John Flynn and Pindara and asked if children can be treated there and they said there is no child’s ward for operations.” Nurses put a catheter in each of Sailor’s arms so they were ready when they found out what antibiotics she could have. “She was moved to a little room and was there until midnight waiting to see the doctor,” Kim said. “They couldn’t see the one doctor that was on last night because he was too busy so the specialist assistant doctor saw her. “Then the nurse came in and said, ‘We shouldn’t have been treating you, I have to be totally gowned up in full PPE [personal protective equipment] gear every time I see you.’ “They couldn’t give her any food in case she needed surgery and Kiri said she couldn’t get anything to eat because everything was closed; there
were two vending machines, but one was broken and the other one was empty.” It was 1am before Sailor was given antibiotics and fluids. “Then at 9am on Monday morning [18 hours after they went to the hospital] they said they both had to have a COVID test,” Kim said. “That little six-year-old has gone through enough; she hasn’t had anything to eat because she might be operated on. “There is no COVID in the Tweed and they are treating us like lepers whereas Queensland does have COVID.” The test results came back negative and Sailor and her mother were moved to an Emergency Department isolation room. Kiri contacted The Weekly to say Sailor wouldn’t be operated on until 6pm on Monday night. “We have had no food for two days; Sailor and I are so upset,” Kiri said.
“I even called Ryan’s Rule [allowing a parent to get their child’s care reviewed] and they have done nothing. “Sailor is upset and tired.” On Monday afternoon, Sailor was moved to a children’s isolation ward where nurses gave Kiri a sandwich. “They said depending on Sailor, it could be one or two days after the operation before we can leave, but they don’t really know,” she said. “I can’t even leave the room to get food or a coffee.” Sailor’s operation was rescheduled to Tuesday morning, but at least she could finally have some food. “There were too many NSW patients that were high-risk trauma patients they had to treat first apparently,” Kiri said. “They only have one surgery room for NSW border residents so the list gets long and people get bumped.”

Caba Social owners John and Lorraine Sillars said they lost around 50 per cent of their revenue during the lockdown. “Lockdown was a difficult time due to all the uncertainty,” Lorraine said. “We reduced our hours to suit the climate, however the support of our local customers got us through; they have been amazing. “Today was amazing; it was very busy and just the feeling of everyone coming out and enjoying themselves was really, really good.” Pottsville Tavern’s Scott Polglase said Saturday was “hectic.” “It’s been great having everyone back, all the locals,” he said. “By midday everyone was rolling in and we were full for lunch and we are booked out for dinner. ‘We’re expecting another big day tomorrow. “We’ve got all our staff back as of today so that’s great.”

By Jonathon Howard and Jo Kennett THE DRINKS were flowing from the early hours of Saturday, September 11, as the lockdown lifted across the Tweed Shire prompting a sense of celebration and relief amongst locals. Barber shops, hairdressers and beauty salons have since seen queues forming along footpaths, as residents were eager to regain some normality after being in lockdown for the past month. While questions remain around whether the Tweed Shire will be back in lockdown once a case is detected locally, residents were eager to put their fears aside and rejoice in a taste of freedom. The easing of border restrictions was assisted thanks in no small part to our local politicians with a special mention to Tweed Shire Mayor Chris Cherry, Member for Tweed Geoff Provest, Member for Lismore Janelle Saffin, Federal Member for Richmond Justine Elliot, along with Queensland politicians and Tweed Shire Councillors.

Sweet Talk with Robert Hawken
Harvest progressing well with glorious weather Planting has also been progressing well with 50 per cent completed. Condong growers have also been actively engaged with weed control and fertilising programs. Spring is a very busy time for canegrowers and the good weather is enjoyed by them all. The NSW sugar industry is encouraged by the recent lift in the world sugar price, due to the shifting dynamics of the global sugar market. Shortfalls in the production of some of the world’s largest sugar producers means a realistic return to the Australian Sugar Industry. Till next month, all the best and stay safe, Rob Hawken.
Tremendous season so far for cane harvest THE NSW Sugar Industry has passed the halfway point for the 2021 cane crush, having enjoyed favourable weather conditions, reliable transport and factory operations and a positive sugar price outlook. To date, the three mills have processed some 850,000 tonnes of locally grown cane. A relatively warm winter allowed for some additional growth in both one and two-yearold cane and coming into spring there has been an uplift in CCS, with sugar content performing well above average. “Ultimately we’re having a tremendous season so far, which is encouraging for our growers and the industry,” said Sunshine Sugar CEO Chris Connors.
Despite the many challenges the local sugar industry has faced, it appears that the 150-year-old industry isn’t going away. “The local sugar industry continues to prove that it’s a reliable and consistent agricultural business here in the Northern Rivers region,” Mr Connors said. “This season we’re in a position to offer a record cane price to our NSW growers off the back of a solid world market and new varieties that are performing well above historical CCS averages, which is in stark contrast to many other industries.”
Farming confidence at all-time high SOAKING WINTER rains have set up a second consecutive favourable spring season for farmers across regional New South Wales, with confidence among the state’s agricultural sector defying the broader economic uncertainty due to COVID-19, according to Rabobank. The latest quarterly Rabobank Rural Confidence Survey has found NSW farmers are now among the most positive in Australia, with optimism about business conditions and financial performance continuing to climb – hitting one of the highest confidence levels recorded in the survey’s 20-year history. The survey results, released this week, reveal elevated commodity pricing and continuing favourable seasonal conditions have contributed to solid levels of profitability over the past year and ongoing optimism about agricultural conditions for the 12 months ahead in nearly all regions of the state and across all commodity sectors. Overall, close to 90 per cent of NSW farmers surveyed expect business conditions
will either improve or remain as good as they currently are over the coming 12 months. The results reveal very low levels of pessimism and indicate the state’s farm sector has been relatively sheltered from fallout from COVID-19 or related restrictions. However, rules around border and regional restrictions have tightened since the survey was completed last month. The survey found 48 per cent of the state’s farmers expect conditions to improve over the coming 12 months – up from 44 per cent in June – while 45 per cent expect a continuation of the current conditions and just four per cent think conditions will worsen. COVID was cited as a key reason by 40 per cent of those expecting a deterioration. The survey shows commodity prices to be the top factor driving positive sentiment among the state’s farmers, cited by 81 per cent as a reason for their optimistic outlook – up from 64 per cent last quarter – while 74 per cent nominated seasonal conditions – up from 57 per cent.

EXCELLENT HARVESTING and planting weather conditions have prevailed for the district’s canegrowers this past month. The conditions are assisting in the speedy harvest and replanting across the Tweed Shire. The Condong Sugar Mill continues to perform well with the good quality of cane being supplied by the eight local harvesting groups. The cane harvest is close to 60 per cent complete with an anticipated finish date of November 30 and final crop size of 480,000 tonnes of cane, which is better than the original estimate of 453,397 tonnes.

By Jonathon Howard THE SALE of Stone & Wood under its parent company Fermentum to beverage corporation Lion will not result in any job losses for the Northern Rivers and plans for a second brewery at South Murwillumbah remains on the cards, according to the new company, pending final sales approval. Lion has committed to building the second brewery at South Murwillumbah, but the design could vary. The sale of Fermentum is yet to be finalised via the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, to an estimated price tag of around $500 million, according to The Australian Financial Review. Fermentum and Lion reached the 100 per cent sale agreement last week which includes brands Stone & Wood, Two Birds, Fixation, Little Dragon and Sunly Seltzer. Stone & Wood’s media team said “all jobs were guaranteed as part of the agreement” which means around 160 staff across the Northern Rivers sites will stay on the job. “The founders also negotiated the construction of a second brewery site at South Murwillumbah to still go ahead, which will result in more jobs for the area
down the line,” a Stone & Wood media spokesperson said. Lion have donated $5 million to the Stone & Wood inGrained Foundation that looks after not-for-profits in the Northern Rivers and $1 million to Big Scrub Landcare to go towards ongoing regeneration. Fermentum co-founder and chairman Jamie Cook said the combination of timing and finding the right custodian to take the business forward made this the natural next step for Fermentum. “After an extensive strategic review exploring options to set us up for future growth, we decided to test the waters on whether now was the right time for the founding families to find a custodian to grow Fermentum’s legacy, its people, its culture and its brands, and continue to drive the business forward whilst staying true to its purpose,” he said. “We only looked for a custodian who would be committed to building the brewery and to support our work in the community.” Stone & Wood was first established in Byron Bay in 2008 and its Pacific Ale is amongst the biggest selling craft beers in Australia, claiming the number one spot in the Great Australasian Beer Spectapular (GABS) and Hottest 100 Aussie Craft Beers in 2011, 2015, 2016 and 2019.

Local features in SBS suicide prevention documentary Pool lift a huge success
By Jo Kennett MURWILLUMBAH MOTHER Ursula Wharton lost her son to suicide four years ago and she’s set to speak about it in an upcoming SBS documentary this Sunday, September 19. The documentary, ‘Osher Günsberg: A Matter of Life and Death’, shines a light on Australia’s suicide crisis, exploring possible solutions to help mitigate the issue. Since losing her 17-year-old son Josh, Ursula has become an advocate for suicide prevention. “Josh had Aspergers, which is highfunctioning autism and suicide is a much higher risk with Aspergers and autism,” she told The Weekly. “When Josh was receiving help I was desperately saying this is not the right way to be treating him, you need compassion. “I wasn’t being listened to and I realised when we lost Josh there are a lot of people in the same situation. “During that couple of years of crisis with Josh, there were ambulances and police called a few times and we had both positive and negative experiences.” Ursula said she lost a lot of faith in the system during and after losing Josh. “It Takes a Town picked me up and supported me,” she said. “I did a lot of research and ultimately they need to choose life for themselves and the key to that is really caring and being there and showing that care. “The system isn’t changing fast enough and we need to help each other.” Ursula said that while she was unable to save her son, she realised she could help save others. “There are so many people at any one time desperately needing treatment,” she said.
Family owned business 0 2 for over years.

“Josh died on the Gold Coast so I petitioned Queensland Health for an inquest. “It’s very rare and difficult to get an inquest and the coroner decided it was in the public interest, but they are still dragging their feet. “We’ve known the answers to this crisis for so long; we had a senate enquiry 12 years ago but nothing has been done.” Over nine people die every day in Australia from suicide and over 178 make an attempt, four million Australians have mental health problems but only two thirds of those seek help. “Suicide is constantly around us, but we have failed as a society to understand just how prevalent it is,” Ursula said. “It’s just human nature that at some point if the stress of living is that great, thoughts of suicide might come up. “Sometimes people think it’s better not to talk about it and there’s something wrong with the person or that family, but we can’t control everything in our lives. “We need to just be able to demystify suicide and be able to talk about it.” Ursula was introduced to Roses in the Ocean and started doing consultation work with them around lived experience, representation, support and safe spaces. “I also co-designed improvements for first responders for when someone is imminently suicidal,” she said.
“We have a Safe Space in Lismore and one coming to Tweed Heads: it’s an alternative to emergency departments. “It’s a non-clinical environment because a clinical environment – being locked up – is very negative and people won’t seek help. “From what I’ve seen, holding space with compassion and non-judgment is the solution so I really have faith in it.” Ursula is the founder of Deep Listeners, a collective of trained and skilled Tweed Shire residents who provide a compassionate ear for those in need and can be found at the Murwillumbah Farmers’ Market on Wednesday mornings from 9am to 11am. “Knowing the signs as a community means we can help before it gets to that sort of point,” she said. “Authenticity is so important in those conversations; we all wear masks and being able to take off the mask and show your authentic self is really protective. “While so many people have suicidal thoughts, most survive.” Watch Osher Günsberg: A Matter of Life and Death at 8.30pm Sunday, September 19, on SBS and SBS On Demand to see more of Ursula’s story. If you or someone you know requires support please phone Lifeline: 13 11 14.
FOLLOWING A massive team effort, Northern Rivers Pools, along with Lismore-based Rotorwing Helicopter, successfully lifted a 1.2-tonne pool into a Chillingham property on Thursday, September 9. The lift and placement was a huge success and Northern Rivers Pool owner Grant Vidler said he wanted to extend a big “thank you” to Bucks Farm for supplying the lift site. Mr Vidler said it was the first time he has used a helicopter to deliver a pool, but will not be the last. “Some of the Tweed’s remote blocks require thinking outside the box and in this case a chopper was a great way to get the pool in,” he said.
Conditions were perfect to hoist the pool into place

Tumbulgum students have keen eye for photography By Jonathon Howard TUMBULGUM PUBLIC School students recently took part in the Murwillumbah Showgrounds annual photo competition, with some budding young photographers proving they have a keen eye for detail. Year one student Brian Ingram is only six years old and won first place for a stunning photo of a plant that caught the eye of the judges. Brian told his K1 teacher that the colourful plant caught his eye. “I chose to take a photo of a plant with red and green colours with water in the middle because it looked pretty. I liked walking around the flowers in the playground,” the youngster said. Second place had joint winners going to year one student Oliver Fenwich and Gwen Wilkin – a kindergarten student and only five years old. Gwen said she enjoys the great outdoors and looking through the lens. “It was fun to go outside in the breeze to take photos,” she said. “My photo looks beautiful because of the clouds and the trees. I was excited to win a ribbon.” Oliver was drawn to the brief of photographing nature.

“I choose to take photos of the clouds moving in the sky with the trees. It was awesome to win a ribbon,” he said. Other students shared their views with many expressing the joys photography can bring. “I loved taking pictures of the green fruit off the tree,” said year one student Jackson Hockley Antaw.
“I liked walking around nature looking at flowers to take photos of. The flower I chose was pretty and pink,” said Lena Gray in year one. Finally, kindergarten student Charlie Lees summed up the competition as “fun”. “The photography competition was really fun to take photos,” he said.

The Kangaroos were set to celebrate winning the Gold Coast Group 18 A and Reserve grade premierships back in 1971, the most successful day in the club’s history. Premiership winning coach Claude McDermott, and Alan Ayres and Robin Smith decided the reunion could not be held. “Right now sometime in November could be good, but we will decide on the date a bit later and adhere to whatever rules the government has in place,” said Mr Smith.

Semiconductor shortage plaguing new car market T Y R E C H E C K
By Jonathon Howard CRICKS TWEED Heads is urging residents to get their vehicle orders submitted as soon as possible to avoid disappointment as a global shortage of semi-conductors is plaguing the auto industry and could push orders back by several months, into 2022 in some cases. Cricks Tweed (Subaru and Mitsubishi) dealer principal Ryan Harding said his dealership is suffering from a constrained ordering process due to the global computer chip shortage. Mr Harding said he wanted to inform residents of the issue and to help them avoid disappointment. “We are currently experiencing a severe shortage of most model lines,” he said. “This is due to this global shortage of semi-conductors which has played havoc with the ordering systems and the auto industry.” Mr Harding said customers could be waiting between four to six months for their vehicle of choice. “In fact, there are some brands out there that are taking more than 12 months to backorder,” he said. Mr Harding said the COVID-19 pandemic and demands from other computer-related sectors including gaming, smart phones and computers, who also require semi-conductors, have put downward pressure on the electronics market and depleted supplies. This demand has also driven prices up for the conductors, with phone and gaming sectors offering more money and therefore placing them at the top of the list.
Your tyres are the only grip your car has on the road – making sure they’re in good condition is a must to stay safe. Here are the two clear signs it’s time for new tyres. 1. There’s not enough 2. There is visible sidewall tread on your tyres damage on your car tyres
Semiconductor may look small but they play a big role in electronics including new vehicles and the demand from them is outstripping supply
“Cricks Tweed have a limited supply of cars for immediate delivery, but they are running out fast,” he said. “Alternatively, the best thing to do is to get your name on a waiting list as soon as possible, as vehicles are delivered on first-in first-served basis.” Mr Harding said those considering a new car can put their order in and he’s offering a full deposit refund if they change their mind. “There’s no risk to the customer,” he said. “You will get your full deposit back if you decide not to proceed, but this way you are on the waiting list.” Mr Harding said a lot of customers are visiting the dealership only to face a three-month minimum wait to driveaway. “It’s important that customers understand the global issue in the new vehicle sector,” he said.
“This is not just us, it’s all dealerships facing the uncertainty due to the global shortage in semi-conductors.” There are only three major producers of semi-conductors around the world and COVID-19 has impacted their operations along with increased demand. According to a report published last week by Automotive News, dozens of production lines across plants in Japan will have production suspended at some point between now and October. With similar reductions taking place at manufacturers in Europe, Thailand, and north America. T h e p ro d u c t i o n l o s s i s s e t t o significantly reduce the number of cars available for delivery in Australia in 2021, further impacting a sector already effected by Covid-19. To find out more, or to get your vehicle order in, please call Cricks Tweed on (07) 5506 0900.
Tyre tread is designed to remove and disperse water between the tyre and the road surface to maintain good grip when it’s wet – on a brand new tyre, the tread is typically eight millimetres deep. The minimum legal tread depth in Australia is 1.5mm. A tyre with less than 1.5mm tread depth can increase the distance it takes your car to stop, reduce your grip levels on the road and increase the serious risk of aquaplaning or sliding in wet conditions. Small bars of rubber running across the grooves in between the tread – called tread wear indicators – tell you when the tyre is worn out. If the tread is worn down to these bars on any part of the tyre, it’s worn out, unroadworthy, and needs to be replaced.
A quick visual inspection of tyre condition when you check your tyre pressure can help you detect damage early, reducing the risk of tyre failure. A cut, bulge or missing chunk from the sidewall is usually the result of impact with a gutter or pothole and can make a tyre unroadworthy and unsafe. A bulge means the inner structure of the tyre sidewall has separated and is allowing the air inside to push against the rubber facing of the sidewall, which puts the tyre at an increased risk of failure. If the rubber facing on the sidewall has been cut or damaged through to the inner structure, it’s time to get the tyre replaced.

Elegant new restaurant celebrates the past
Restaurant manager Elyse Kerr, owners Phillip Hepburn and Gregory Lording with executive chef Joseph McGrattan
By Jonathon Howard
ANTICIPATION IS building for the grand reopening of the Tweed River House at 131 River Street in South Murwillumbah on Friday, September 24, which is set to raise the bar in the Northern Rivers’ restaurant scene. For more than 110 years this iconic federation-style building, formerly known as Greenhills on Tweed, has offered guests incredible views of the Tweed River and Wollumbin/Mount Warning. The renovations and revitalisation of the site was the brainchild of owners Gregory Lording and Phillip Hepburn, who felt passionate about the building’s potential. The Weekly was recently invited for a sneak peek inside the restaurant prior to its official opening next week, with bookings already running hot. The results are truly spectacular and pay homage to the past, while heralding a new era for the venue that’s both elegant and inviting. It’s clear to see the couple have poured their hearts and souls into the property, along with a considerable investment, to ensure locals and visitors experience the very best the site has to offer. “We live in South Murwillumbah and we’d been walking past the property for years and have always loved it,” Mr Lording said. “When it came on the market in 2020, we knew we had to have it with the intention of bringing it back to its former glory for everyone to enjoy.” The renovations started in January this year using local trades and the transformation has been nothing short of exquisite. “We didn’t want to see it become a private home or torn down, so we decided to
renovate the property as a restaurant,” Mr Lording said. From the moment you step inside Tweed River House you are struck by the level of quality and attention to detail. From elegant 1930s-style tiles and modern timber flooring, to the pressed metal ceilings and glorious furnishings, no expense has been spared to recreate this exciting venue that’s sure to dazzle guests. The style and design came from the creative mind of Mr Lording, who grew up in Jakarta and Singapore in the late 1960s and 1970s and revisited his memories of grand hotels including the iconic Raffles Hotel in Singapore as his inspiration. Those impressions have translated beautifully into a venue with ample seating for 55, under current COVID-19 restrictions, and up to 100 once restrictions lift. “When I saw the property, I instantly saw a plantation-era-style renovation incorporating pan-Asian and Australian styles,” he said. Mr Lording said his vision for the redesign was to create the feeling of travelling and a sense of escape into a “gentler time of life”. “I wanted to capture that 1930s elegance with modern settings,” he said. The results are incredible with impeccable attention to detail along the way. But Mr Lording said the restaurant is not just about fine dining, but more about great food in a beautiful and welcoming setting. The table settings are modest and do not include white tablecloths, with prices tailored to suit from light bites in the Palm Lounge right up to five-course dining menus, including vegan and gluten free, “We want to be a restaurant the whole community can be proud of and enjoy,” he said.
Mr Hepburn is the economic brains of the operation and has ensured the business has sourced great staff whilst remaining within budget. The restaurant offers a variety of dining experiences including the river terrace, chandelier private dining room which includes a special butler service for ten guests, as well as the Palm Lounge for a more relaxed experience. The restaurant will employ around 20 local staff with some outstanding operators joining the team including restaurant manager Elyse Kerr. Ms Kerr brings a wealth of knowledge and has a background as a hotel manager at fivestar resorts across Asia.
She’s also going to handle the staff training as has been a hospitality educator at the Murwillumbah Community College. “We are offering table service and will have a dedicated wait person across each of the restaurant’s settings,” she said. “It’s great to be joining such a fantastic team and the owners are inspiring. “We want the Tweed River House to give that feeling of coming into a beautiful and elegant home with a friendly greeting, great food and exceptional service.” Tweed River House will open for lunch from Thursday to Sunday (12pm to 3.30pm last reservation) and dinner on Friday and Saturday night. To find out more, or to make a booking, please visit www.tweedriverhouse.com.au or phone: 02 6672 5269.
Meet the Tweed River House executive chef TWEED RIVER House executive chef Joseph McGrattan said he wants to concentrate on the Northern Rivers food bowl as his source of inspiration for the restaurant’s new menu. “And to create an enticing menu for locals and visitors,” he said. Mr McGrattan was trained in classic French Michelin star restaurants and has extensive experience in fine dining around the world. He grew up in Belfast and moved to Australia when he was 19 and met his wife in Melbourne. He now lives happily in South Murwillumbah, near the restaurant, and has a passion for local produce. “I’ve been cooking since I was 16 and now have 20 years’ experience,” he said.
“I want to do beautiful food that celebrates the Tweed Shire and something that’s exciting for guests.” Mr McGrattan has a team of four in his kitchen who all bring a high level of experience and passion for great quality food. His passion for food is evident in the menu options which includes lamb, duck and lobster dishes, to name a few.

We discussed her passion for Gallic and Irish Music. 1. What is good music in your opinion? At the moment it’s music with feeling. Anything played beautifully and in the present moment. 2. Why are you drawn to Gallic Music? I’m drawn to the Celtic Harp and I have always loved the sound of the French language – it has so much feeling in it, it’s a very expressive language. I love the Celtic connection to the earth, it feels like the music comes out of the land, it’s very earthy – and Vasusdha means ‘The Earth’ in Sanskrit. It has a depth of feeling – a longing and a lilt. 3. What is your first memory of music? When I studied music therapy they would say it’s your heartbeat in the womb. Both my grandmothers played music, I remember my maternal grandmother playing Scott Joplin’s
The Entertainer on an old gramophone, and also…it was watching Countdown. 4. What was your first concert experience? I saw Simon and Garfunkel when I was 12, my parents came and got me out of school, and we went to the VFL Park [in Melbourne], it’s a big stadium, it was such a magic moment of people enjoying music on mass. 5. What’s the best live concert you ever saw? Public Enemy on the Gold Coast and Suzanne Vega at the Broadbeach, she’s got so much poise and style, so much quality. 6. Choose your four best albums ever? Lou Reed - Transformer, that was formative, wow there’s so many…Bulerias por Jerez – Various Artists, Thursday Afternoon – Brian Eno, Alice Coltrane – Journey in Satchidananda. Great music, South East Asian food, pizzas and a licensed bar await you. Booking advised, tickets are $15/10 and are available at www.the-regent.com.au/specialevents/
Vasudha plays a beautiful harp
The Regent is back in business this Friday By Nick Hanlon THE REGENT is delighted to announce it will reopen from Friday, September 17, and for every day of the school holidays. After a one-month lockdown hiatus, The Regent returns with a full program of movies and music. The Regent’s owner Allira Cornell said parents are encouraged to bring the kids along to Paw Patrol or bring all the family along to the action-adventure of Jungle Cruise. “The adults may enjoy a night out to see Shiva Baby or Jennifer Hudson as Aretha Franklin in Respect,” she said. “See the website for the exciting film schedule. “The Balcony Sessions are back in full swing with the Weekly Wind-Downs from 6-8pm on Friday, September 17, featuring the bluesy swing of Bone Lazy, for only $15/10.” Allira said the Sunset Soireés return on Saturday, September 18, from 5-7pm
I CAN’T overemphasise how overjoyed I am that The Regent can finally re-open and bring enjoyment to an enthusiastic audience once again! We can now have 45 patrons for our everpopular Balcony Sessions, and are allowed to stand whilst drinking! The Slushie machine is up and churning, with Dirty Slushies (Sloshies) available for an adult twist. We have totally rearranged the foyer space, and are very much looking forward to your feedback, and your smiling faces – it’s been waaaaay too long! I have selected 11 films for the first fortnight, and we’ll be open all day, every day, so everyone can get their much-needed Regent fix. Watching Netflix just isn’t the same as going to “the Flicks”… the drama of a darkened room, the spectacle of a massive screen, and the sound system sending vibrations right through your body. It’s so much more than a virtual viewing. It’s a totally immersive event, with anticipatory attention honed and focused phones silenced and distractions removed. You’re committed, treats in hand. More importantly in these times of starved social interactions, “the Flicks”
offering Andrea Solar’s earthy folk with a cocktail and canapés for $30. Vasudha Harte travels the Gallic roads for World Music Sundays from 1-3pm with a $15/10 ticket price. Visit Ilona Harker's pop-up Vintage Boutique on The Balcony on Saturday, September 18, from 10am as part of the Makers and Finders Market. “There is so much happening, so much holiday fun,” she said. Get online and check out more via the-regent.com.au/ special-events We advise booking ahead to avoid disappointment. The Regent follows current Covid-safe practises for your safety and comfort.
provides a shared group experience, increasing its potency. Some people feel annoyed at the crinkling of chip packets during a sad scene…but that’s greatly outweighed by hearing the collective chuckles, gasps, and muttered comments between friends, reminding us of our common humanity. It says a lot about human nature that we enjoy sitting in a darkened space with a roomful of strangers to be told a story, each taking away something slightly different once the credits roll. But for that singular moment in time, synchronicity aligns for that specific cinema session, with those precise people choosing the same screening. A common interest shared. It doesn’t take much, really, to bring people together. We humans evolved through community, and finding our tribe. Those transient micro-tribes may only exist for the length of a movie, a weekend workshop, a simple session of song, a chance meeting at a café… but any one of those brief encounters could spark a lifelong friendship, if we dare to see whatever else we may share in common…

OMEGA IT OMEGA IT offers a wide range of computer services from hardware to software repairs from through to onsite and remote training sessions. Owner operators Jared Stringer has a wealth of knowledge across the IT sector and there’s no job too big or small for him to handle. “My wife and I have recently moved from the Gold Coast to Eviron to live with family,” he said. “Prior to moving we frequently visited the area and very quickly fell in love with the clear skies, sprawling cane fields and the quaint town of Murwillumbah. “After that the choice to move to the area was an easy decision to make.” Jared said he’s already helped a few locals with their computer issues and considers being featured in the Tweed Valley Weekly as a “big achievement”. “We offer a wide set of services such as PC and Apple Hardware Repairs, PC and Apple Software Repairs, Locked computers, Virus Removal, Data Recovery, Wireless Networking,

Password removal, Wifi “Deadspot” Solutions, Phone and Tablet Setup, Wifi/Wired Printer Set Up, Scanning and Printing Issues, Email Send/ Receive Issues, Email Set Up on Computers and Mobile Devices, Remote Repair Sessions, Onsite and Remote Training Sessions and “Scam Support” for people who have been taken advantage of by Scammers,” he said. “I have been working in the IT field for almost five year and I hold a Diploma of Information Technology and Networking as well as multiple additional training courses and certifications.” TESTIMONIALS: “Jarod repaired a broken touch screen for me. Quick service and good rates,” happy customer Doug Inder said. “Jared is incredibly knowledgeable and was able to understand what our business needed and wanted. I have no hesitation recommending him as a professional and we will continue to utilise his skills,” another pleased customer Helen Weber said.

Holding Shot with Judy Tuckey FOUR WEEKS of lock down has definitely not dampened the spirit of local bowlers who appear to be queueing up to secure a booking for roll-ups in preparation for their return to the greens full time. Many thanks to club greenkeepers who have kept their greens in pristine condition during the last few difficult weeks. Back yard lawns and carpeted hallways on practice on, in
comparison, leaves a lot to be desired. Late news to hand. Kingscliff MBC conducted their Open Pairs final the day the lock down came into force and with club doors to be locked shut at 5pm that day, celebrations and results came to a full stop. So, here’s a little catch up. Terry Lee and Steve Massey produced top class bowls going through the preliminary
Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals rounds and held their solid form through their quarter and semifinals to claim a final’s berth. Peter Duncan and Stuart Miles, likewise another formidable duo, also sailed through to the final with sound scoring along the way. Lee and Massey opened the card in their challenge with Duncan and Miles and quickly built up a hefty lead whilst keeping their opposition scoreless for the first five ends. Peter and Stuart then found their Mojo, knuckled down well to produce their own scoring spree during an ongoing tough game that was sprinkled liberally
with counts of six, five and four shots at regular intervals by both teams. Lee and Massey continued to hold on well to maintain their early lead, even though Duncan and Miles, in an almighty grand effort to even the score, snatched the lion’s share of the remaining five ends to collect twelve shots to their opposition’s two. Congratulations to both teams on a great game with Terry and Steve successfully collecting the winner’s spoils. Stay safe and healthy and be kind to each other.

Our Junior activities registrations can be made online at www.members.sls.com.au and at the Surf Club this Sunday between 8.30 am and 10.30 am. Activities are set to commence on October 10. We record the passing of surfboat doyen Ken Murray who was well known in our Branch. Ken started and finished with Swansea – Belmont who have several members in our Old Boys
Association. Much of his success as a boat sweep was spent with Caves Beach, and was a Life Member of both. He was also a Life Member of Hunter Branch, NSW and Australia and inducted into the Australian Hall of Fame. His record was 46 Hunter Branch Gold, 10 NSW, nine Australian and one World, and was selected in six Australian teams.

SURF PATROLS will commence this Saturday, September 18, and will revert to full membership numbers and half day as opposed to six-member full day in lockdown.
With more than 60 per cent of Fingal’s patrol strength on the Queensland side, Cudgen has offered two patrols and Brunswick one to support until Christmas. Our patrol captains are currently consulting with their teams
to see who can take up extra commitment. Although not mandatory to patrol, vaccination should be considered in light of current COVID-19 in the community. With the NSW Government requirement of double dose, we do not yet know what that will mean for Club activities and competition. Group training activities will recommence on September 20.
By Jo Kennett IN A year of pretty bad news, NSW Rugby League has hit local footy fans with the worst news of all. It’s over; done and dusted. Late on Tuesday afternoon, September 14, the big boys announced “the NSWRL has been forced to make the difficult decision to cancel all of the remaining regional NSW competitions due to the latest Public Health Orders.” “While the NSW Government has recently announced easing to some restrictions in various areas of NSW, the NSWRL has been advised that the Public Health Orders do not allow for organised
or competitive community sport to recommence,” the announcement read. Tweed teams were set to dominate the finals with Cudgen running first, Ballina second, Murwillumbah third and the Tweed Coast Raiders fifth in first grade. In Reggies it was Cudgen first again, Ballina second, Murwillumbah third (again) Bilambil fourth and Raiders fifth. In Under 18s it was, you guessed it, Cudgen on top, Ballina second, Murwillumbah fourth and Bilambil fifth. In the Ladies League Tag, it was Marist Bros, Northern, Raiderettes, Cudgen and Bilambil in fifth place.
We will have to wait until next year to smash those pesky southerners. A huge thanks to all our footy report helpers; Nathan Jordan and Debbie Vickery at the Mustangs, Bryce Poisel, Jake Sands, Caleb and Suzie Ziebell and Peta Ski at the Hornets, Mickey Gordon, Drew and Guy Lanston, Andy Wilkes, Bridie McNeven and Chantel Thompson at the Raiders, and Mickey Coleman and Tom Rolles at the Jets. Without you none of these reports would have made the slightest bit of sense. A massive shoutout to all the amazing volunteers who bring this whole show together and let the rest of us kick back and

Kingy former world surf champ features on Rivals By Jo Kennett KINGSCLIFF RESIDENT and former world surfing champion Chelsea Hedges features in this weekend’s episode of Rivals, a Channel 9 surfing series on Saturdays at noon. Chelsea won the ASP World Championship in 2005 as Chelsea Georgenson, in her third year on tour, with Brazilian Jacqueline Silva runner up. She grew up in Avalon and moved north to Tweed Heads when she was 19 and was one of only four women to win a Women’s Triple Crown of Surfing Champions in Hawaii in 2006. Chelsea was recently seen carving it up in the Surf for Sanity at Cabarita Beach. “My first year on tour was in 2003 and (Peruvian surfer) Sofía Mulánovich was my very good mate and we travelled everywhere together,” she said. “We came into professional surfing at a good time. “Layne was still there and Lisa Anderson and Pauline Menczer; it was tough at the start but women’s surfing was starting to be respected.
“There were brands like Roxy and Billabong Women and Sofia and I had good sponsorship with Roxy so we were really lucky.” Chelsea said the level of women’s surfing was “just getting where it needed to be” to warrant equal pay to the men. “We were the younger ones that came on the tour that helped make that change,” she said. “I didn’t think we deserved as much as the guys then because we didn’t surf as good but Layne and all those girls fought so hard to be there. “I had nine years on tour and the highlight was surfing some of the best waves in the world like the Mentawais, Hossegor, and Tavarua and Cloudbreak in Fiji. “Winning a world title was a highlight but really it was making the friendships and the lifestyle that was the best.” Chelsea retired at the end of 2011 and had three daughters. “I always wanted kids because I grew up in an awesome family,” she said. “Then I started working with Surfing Australia (SA) and Martin Dunn for a little while and worked on the talent ID program in 2012 which was based at Casuarina.
“I had a third baby when the program finished because it was hard trying to work and look after the kids and then later I worked at Bunnings for five years.” Chelsea started coaching for SA under an Australian Institute of Sport scholarship program and then in talent ID, before landing her role in Rivals, where former competitors have a window to pick the best conditions to surf their favourite local break. “Last year My Surf TV and SA did the male version of Rivals with Parko, Mick, Bede and the boys and I got an invitation to be part of Rivals, the female version. “It was amazing, it was a really fun experience and bought back so many memories,” she said. “It was really fun to compete in a different format; we can pay each other out and there’s plenty of banter. “We have really good friendships but it’s a good little story to show the next generation of girls surfing now what it was like when we were competing and how those rivalries got us to where we were and never die.” Chelsea had a window of several weeks to choose the best location and day to take out her Rivals

opponents Layne Beachley, Sofia Mulanovich, Keala Kennelly, Rochelle Ballard, Serena Brooks, Kate Wilcomes and Sam Cornish. “You could go within 60km of your region and Tweed Heads was my region,” Chelsea said. “I could go from Black Rocks to Fingal so I chose Black Rocks. “The surf was really good; it was almost too big because I was waiting for a decent swell to make it entertaining but there was a fairly long window and you get too picky waiting for the perfect conditions. “It’s just something fun for the current generation and I hope it inspired them to see that
competitive rivalries are a healthy thing and you can still be friends.” Now filming has wrapped, Chelsea is back at SA developing young Australian talent to qualify for the world tour and working towards the 2024 Paris Olympics, with the surfing confirmed to run at Teahupoo, Tahiti. Surfing Australia’s National High Performance Director, Pottsville’s Kate Wilcomes (formerly Skarratt), who took Australia’s surf team to the Tokyo Olympics, has already featured on Rivals.

Coast and hinterland real estate still in high demand
By Jo Kennett THERE IS still strong growth in the local property market, with record prices and Sydney buyers the predominant players, according to local estate agents. Paul Stobbie from Northern Rivers Property Group said Tweed Shire hinterland real estate was still in hot demand. “The market in the Northern Rivers remains very strong despite the lockdowns of NSW and the problem for Queenslanders not being able to come to NSW and then return home without a lot of conditions being met,” Mr Stobbie told The Weekly. “That, coupled with an increasing stock level over the last two months – with 21 new listings coming to market with our agency alone over that period – has definitely slowed it a little, but make no mistake, it is still very, very strong with record prices still being achieved every day. “We have achieved 17 sales during that period as well; so stock is still moving.” Mr Stobbie said he thought slowing prices didn’t indicate a lack of potential buyers keen to buy property in the area. “It’s not so much that prices are not continuing to rise, but with increasing stock and a reduction
in physical inspections due to lockdown protocols holding back more than usual offers, we are feeling a slight slowing on the ground,” he said. “However, I don’t think we have hit the top of the market just yet and wait to see the market reaction in the coming months as an easing of restrictions starts to take effect. “We suspect it will push again and gain more momentum, as evidenced by the amount of people in hard lockdown areas looking to purchase properties simply from walk-throughs on video with the agent.” Mr Stobbie believes we will see a new surge in our area once NSW and Queensland residents can freely move around and through our region. “Rural lifestyle properties across the whole of the Northern Rivers are still gaining a lot of attention from people looking to get out of lockdown areas and futureproof any further pandemic restrictions with self-sustainability high on purchasers’ agenda when looking at rural lifestyle properties,” he said. “Dual living properties have also received a lot of attention with family members deciding to pool their money in what has been a very sharp price increase for properties in our area since the start of this year.

“Murwillumbah’s residential entry level price is now around $600,000 with surrounding rural properties starting at around $900,000. “We are also finding a lot of buyers even moving locally from the coastal fringe of Casuarina, Kingscliff, Cabarita and the Byron region looking to cash in on their huge gains over the last 12 to 24 months and buying into our area, which while seeing strong price increases, is still looking relatively affordable if you are already in those markets.” Selling Principal & Director at Schmith Estate Agents Justin Schmith said things have still been busy on the coast even with the lockdown. “I’ve been working 12 to 16 hour days; we had 72 groups through to look at one property in three weeks which is a lot of people to try to get back to,” he told The Weekly. “There were no open homes during lockdown; it was one in, one out, but we did a lot of FaceTime inspections. “We took 18 people through a Tweed Heads West duplex in two weeks; we were hammering down that we only wanted serious buyers because of the lockdowns. “We had multiple offers, with a lot of interest from locals, but
This renovated three-bedroom duplex in Tweed Heads West sold recently for $585,000 to a Sydney investor
it closed at about $585,000; it was bought sight unseen by an investor from the Northern Beaches, from Brookvale [Sydney]. “That’s pretty good considering you couldn’t sell a house there for $500,00 not that long ago. “It’s not her first investment property and I think eventually they might move up when they get older.” Mr Schmith said the Tweed Heads area, the Tweed Coast and the Gold Coast were seeing a lot of buyers from Sydney’s Sutherland Shire and Northern Beaches “I don’t think the market has slowed down; we had 3,000 views and 65 emails for the Tweed Heads West property,” he said. “We sold a property in Smiths Creek that had been on the market for six months with a Brisbane broker.

“It had six chalets and a resortstyle setting and a list price of $3.85 million and Michael Kelly sold it with multiple interests in one week. “I sold a house in Stanley Street at Tweed Heads for $850,000 and that was for a first-home buyer from Burleigh. “Most of the enquiries came from Melbourne and Sydney, but particularly Sydney.” Mr Schmith is expecting the spring selling season to be good as well. “Growth will still track north all the way to Christmas; it’s not going down,” he said. “It’s still tracking at about eight per cent growth and by the end of the year certain areas like Tweed could have seen 25 per cent growth over 12 months. “We’re not expecting it to plateau until later next year.”
