WE CAN HELP YOUR BUSINESS REACH MORE LOCAL READERS EVERY WEEK FROM BLACKHEATH TO BATHURST Central West Media publishes two free weekly publications in the region, the Bathurst City Life on Wednesdays and the Lithgow Village Voice on Fridays.

An Australian Surrealist artist, creating quirky, acid pop artworks and murals, Le Grizz is currently based within the mountains of Lithgow valley. A quick witted, deep thinking artist since young, though painting under the alias Le Grizz since 2013, he has collaborated with brands including Fireball Whisky, Bacardi-Martini, Young Henrys, Kyneee Snowboards, Mambo, Disney and Valentine Wines.

“The path to this body of work has taken many interesting twists and turns while exploring and reinterpreting my mind, where it has landed is somewhere I can only describe as beautiful madness,” said Le Grizz “A capsule of thought and an extension of my mind, my movements and perspectives. The surreal glitches and visual punch of colour reshaping feelings makes this, without a doubt the most selfish body of work I have created, I find it only fitting that I show it from where I created it, in my studio within the mountains, Frost gully.” said Le Grizz Beautiful madness, an exhibition of recent painting by Le Grizz, Opening Saturday 1st May 10-5pm, State mine Heritage Park Lithgow valley, NSW Beautiful madness will be on display from May 1st until May 9th 2012.

GET INVOLVED IN A HERITAGE GARDEN PROJECT AT ESKBANK HOUSE MUSEUM

Eskbank House Museum is looking to bring together a small group of gardening and history enthusiasts to participate in a project to develop and nurture a heritage garden.

Mary’s Garden is an imagined garden based on historic photographs, 19thc gardening practices, and the plant species known to be available in Australia during Mary Brown’s time at Eskbank House. It incorporates elements common in Australian and Scottish approaches to gardening during the mid-19th century.

The project will involve gardening workshops, field trips, talks and hands on gardening. The group will meet regularly for working-bees to establish the garden and for seasonal planting, and the garden will also be made accessible to participants 5 days a week so they can spend as much time pottering as they wish. Gardening workshops and working-bees, including establishing an edible garden and working with environmental challenges and risk, will be led by Jessica Lawn from Arborvitae. As a horticulturist and arborist experienced with heritage gardens throughout the Blue Mountains region, Jessica has cared for many gardens at risk and nurtured their

recovery following periods of drought and fires.

The heritage garden project will create a new aspect to the museums role in providing the community access to local history as well as providing a unique educational resource to diversify the museums audiences. Participants in the project may also wish to contribute to a planned publication on the medicinal and everyday use of plants in the Victorian kitchen garden.

“Such a unique educational resource will attract new visitors to the museum,” Mayor Ray Thompson said.

“Importantly, however, the garden will provide a space for the community reconnect following the impact of fires on our region.”

Registration closes Wednesday 12th May. The first group meeting is scheduled for w/c 17th May with specific dates reflecting participants availability. We are particularly interested in engaging fire affected or at risk residents.

This project is funded under the Bushfire Community Resilience and Recovery Fund.

WESTERN SYDNEY UNIVERSITY TRANSFORMATION HUB NOW OPEN FOR THE PEOPLE OF LITHGOW Western Sydney University’s partnership with the people of Lithgow is entering a new phase, with the re-opening of the Charles Hoskins Memorial Institute building on Mort Street.

The Hon Andrew Gee MP, Federal Member for Calare and Minister for Decentralisation and Regional Education, will join with the Mayor of Lithgow City Council, Councillor Ray Thompson in attending a special event on Thursday 29 April 2021 to announce the new name and community focus for the University’s Lithgow site.

Western Sydney University Vice-Chancellor and President, Professor Barney Glover AO, said the building will be known as the Maldhan Ngurr Ngurra – Lithgow Transformation Hub. “The city of Lithgow sits on the land of the Wiradjuri people. In acknowledgment and respect to the Traditional Owners and Custodians, the University consulted with the local Indigenous community and was bestowed the name ‘Maldhan Ngurr Ngurra’,” said Professor Glover.

“In Wiradjuri language, Maldhan Ngurr Ngurra

translates as ‘Workmanship together, side by side’ – a fitting name for the Hub, given its intent to create a space where the Lithgow community can continue to come together with the University, share knowledge and resources, and work together towards a sustainable and thriving future.”

The historic Charles Hoskins Memorial Institute building was used by the University from 2014-2018, primarily as a teaching facility for The College’s Diploma of Nursing programs.

Since ceasing teaching activities at the site in late 2018, the University consulted a wide range of stakeholders and business and community representatives, which included holding a series of workshops to consider potential, alternate options for the use of the site.

Researchers from the University’s Institute for Culture and Society shared a ‘Re-imagining Lithgow’ discussion paper in 2019, suggesting the site be used to address the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, empowering the local community to overcome regional challenges.

Lead researcher, Associate Professor Louise CrabtreeHayes, said ‘Transformation’ is a reference to the Hub’s focus on collaboration with industry, education and community partners in realising Lithgow’s future as a

productive, sustainable city.

“The outcome of our consultations is that the site should be used as an open, shared space – where the communities of Lithgow can come together with the University for their mutual benefit,” said Associate Professor Crabtree-Hayes.

“In the Hub, we envisage a space where local students can come to use our state-of-the-art technology or Wi-Fi, or find a co-working or study space; while professionals and business-owners can use the Hub for their conferences, gatherings, meetings, events, residencies, exhibitions or pop-up labs.

“We also anticipate the Hub becoming a centre for engaged, practical, and collaborative research partnerships focusing on the future of industry, technology, enterprise, culture, wellbeing, tourism, and education in regional Australia, and see the potential for the Hub to attract world-class companies and talent to the Lithgow area.”

The Maldhan Ngurr Ngurra – Lithgow Transformation Hub is being established by Western Sydney University in partnership with numerous community, business, education, and service organisations, including Lithgow City Council and Wiradjuri elders. A Maldhan Ngurr Ngurra Advisory Group is being established, to oversee the activities of the Hub.

MID-WESTERN AXEMEN READY TO PUT ON A GOOD SHOW Members of the Mid-Western Axemen’s Association are ready to strut their stuff at this year’s Royal Bathurst Show.

And with the big event just around the corner (April 30, May 1-2), they have received a tremendous boost thanks to the Member for Bathurst Paul Toole.

He has secured a $10,000 grant from the NSW Government for the Association to replace their old cradles which are used to hold the timber blocks they use in competition.

Mr Toole met with members of the Association at the Bathurst Showground to deliver the good news at a time when excitement is building ahead of the Royal Bathurst Show which one of the main events on their annual calendar.

“Axemen from across the Central West will converge on Bathurst for the local show. The Association’s membership

extends from Blackheath to Lightning Ridge and down to Cooma,” Mr Toole said.

“COVID slowed their activities significantly, but now they are back and Bathurst is their big show.

“Just like the showmen who run the amusements, they follow the show circuit because everyone loves the wood chopping events.”

ANZAC DAY IN PORTLAND

The ANZAC spirit was on show in Portland last Sunday as the small community came together to ensure that their annual commemoration ceremonies were able to take place.

Story by Rich Evans

Local schools and residents joined with local RSL members for both a Dawn Service March and a later commemoration ceremony including a march, service and wreath laying.

The event was the only official service to take place in the region due to COVID restrictions, however the Portland Community were assisted by Lithgow City Council to provide a COVID safe event.

After missing all ANZAC commemorations last year, the ceremonies enabled the proud community to show their support in what has been a long held tradition in the small town, with crosses and wreaths being laid at the memorial outside the CWA rooms.

news LEAD FROM THE TOP, LEAD FROM THE BOTTOM! Better Business Column | By Steve Semmens, The Persuader

"The best form of Leadership is empowering others to become great Leaders!" - Steve Semmens Imagine an organisation where staff at all levels, have the freedom, have the initiative, and good judgment to make great decisions that impact any element of their role.

Their only agenda is the belief of the businesses vision and the desire to participate in aligning and fulfilling their higher purpose in duality with the company's higher purpose.

These champions of the organisation lead by example, in their words and their actions.

Consider how powerful this concept is!

Leaders from the bottom have important up to date data that is vital for leaders at the top to create successful strategies. Innovation and creativity is encouraged especially from front-line staff, who are the first to see the changes in the marketplace, and the very important customer. A customer focused organisation empowers their staff to go over and above their everyday roles, to not only meet the needs of the customer, but to constantly exceed them.

In a world that changes constantly Business Owners need to trust their staff to do their jobs to the performance benchmark set and to meet the expectations of their clients.

To do that clear and concise position descriptions must be written and this includes the Business Owners themselves as they are often completing tasks that should be delegated to other staff. In order to fully trust staff and recognise each individuals capabilities the Business Owner has to have excellent policies and procedures in place that are easily readable and understood by anyone in the organisation. and that full training is provided when required.

When recruiting seek candidates who have transferable attributes such as, excellent interpersonal skills, a willingness to learn, will go the extra mile, and importantly can demonstrate they can use their initiative and think for themselves when no one else is around. Set your standards high and only attract and hire the best people. One wrong hire can undo all the great work you have put in to creating your high performing team. Hire on attitude always as skills can be taught.

High performance companies attract the best people, provide the best training for staff and managers, and most importantly retain customers by continually creating value and where possible, changing as their client’s needs change. The philosophy of continuous improvement is embedded throughout the organisation and feedback mechanisms are taken very seriously, as if the survival of the firm is dependent on it. Perhaps it is.

Leading from the top, leading from the bottom, produces new products and services, blue ocean markets, and happy engaged employees. These result in increased productivity and efficiencies, and increased profitability and sustainability.

UNVEILING LITHGOW’S NEW TRANSFORMATION HUB I was honoured this week to officially open Western Sydney University’s Transformation Hub, which is what the WSU building (the Charles Hoskin Memorial Institute Building) on Mort Street will now be used as. It will be a hub of life-long learning, enterprise, engagement and reconciliation, offering the community and students access to state of the art technology, exhibitions and pop-up labs.

Thanks to Vice-Chancellor Professor Barney Glover AO and his team for inviting me to this auspicious ocassion and to all the local businesses and organisations supporting it.

The hub is a wonderful collaboration with the Minagaan Wiradjuri Aboriginal Corporation, as well as other local industry businesses and organisations.

It was wonderful to catch up with colleagues and friends at such a terrific initiative, including Aunty Helen Riley, who has worked hard to ensure that this new centre is a place of reconciliation and learning for everyone.

The WSU Transformation Hub is a fantastic resource for Lithgow and the Central West, setting a standard in community partnerships.

RUNS ON THE BOARD FOR LITHGOW

√ Millions in federal funding to keep Lithgow Aged Care open √ $1.3 million for the Lithgow CBD revitalisation √ $201,000 for Piper’s Flat Road and Range Road Intersection upgrades √ $6,000 for new equipment for Lithgow Men’s Shed √ $1.24 million for an expansion of Three Tree Lodge

Emergency Water Infrastructure Rebate Scheme Extended!

After strongly campaigning on behalf of our farming communities, the Coalition Government has been able to secure a commitment from the NSW State Government to join with the Commonwealth in funding the much needed On-farm Emergency Water Infrastructure scheme.

What’s more, we have been able to secure funding for the program going into the 2021/22 financial year, so even more farmers who need support installing drought resilience infrastructure get the opportunity to do so.

The Coalition Government announced an extra $50 million in October last year to the popular Emergency Water Infrastructure Rebate Scheme (EWIRS).

This scheme, initiated by the Federal Government, proved extremely popular in assisting farmers to make their properties more droughtresilient.

While it was funded by the Federal Government, it was managed by the state government, which allowed the program to be heavily oversubscribed and left many farmers out of pocket.

This is something I believe was extremely unfair on farmers who applied for this grant in good faith and were approved, but then not funded.

Local farmers who have already invested money in good faith will now be prioritised to receive the subsidy, and the NSW Government contributing 50-50 with the Commonwealth to future approved projects.

It is anticipated that the program will open shortly.

For more info visit: www.agriculture.gov.au/water/national/on-farm-infrastructure-rebate

√ $1.1 million for the upgrade of Glen Davis Road √ $64 million for the upgrade of the Forty Bends on Great Western Highway √ $55 million for the upgrade of the Great Western Highway through the Hartley Valley √ $1.06 million for the headspace outreach service

Andrew with the Minister for Agriculture, David Littleproud MP, and orchardists Gaeta & Sons, after the Emergency Water Rebate was extended to horticulture and wine production.

$300,000 IN BUSHFIRE FUNDING FOR WOLGAN VALLEY The Lithgow region will benefit from new funding from both the Australian and New South Wales governments, as part of Stream Two of the Bushfire Community Recovery and Resilience Fund (BCRRF).

This funding is supporting locally led recovery that focuses on community wellbeing, connectedness, social recovery, and future disaster resilience.

Our area saw first-hand how devastating the bushfires were. It’s a miracle that no-one was killed in our region.

We know that the bushfires will come again, and we need to be preparing our communities, by doing things like upgrading our community evacuation centres and engaging with communities like the Wolgan Valley that were particularly isolated during the fires.

Following the fires that ravaged the Wolgan Valley, 27 members of the bush club ventured out to the Newnes Hotel to help with the clean up.

√ $10,000 for Portland’s Men’s Shed to restore Kremar Park Bath House

Lithgow City Council was awarded $300,000 for their “WE’RE Wolgan” project, designed to engage with the local community of the Wolgan Valley to develop an Emergency Evacuation Plan and develop resilience for future disaster and emergency events.

√ $2.235 million for Lithgow’s Blast Furnace Park √ $60,000 for Marjorie Jackson Oval √ $2 million for local projects under the Drought Communities Program √ $10,828 for Portland Golf Club (solar lighting, digital pass locks, door replacement) √ $1.36 million for roads upgrades including sealing Hartley Vale Road √ $480,000 for an upgrade of Wallerawang Community and Sports Club √ An MRI license for Lithgow Hospital

RECORD NUMBER ACHIEVED FOR SKILLSET’S ANNUAL SKILLS AND JOBS CAMPAIGN

...against intruders, noise, storms and heat!

In partnership with local communities, Skillset’s annual jobs and skills campaign, SkillForce500 recorded an outstanding result engaging 617 people in to jobs, training or education, making it Skillset’s most successful campaign ever.

The Bathurst area was a pivotal region and made a significant contribution to the campaign with the placement of 219 individuals into jobs, training and education during the campaign period.

Blake Aubin, Human Resource Manager for Vivability said, “Vivability chose to host a trainee because they are a great pathway and valid career path to follow which also continually brings fresh and new ideas to our every evolving industry. It also helps our business to bring the disability sector to the attention of the younger generation.”

The 2020/21 campaign was the third year of the SkillForce initiative which saw greater engagement of Indigenous people, women and mature aged people. 23 per cent of individuals identified as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, women represented 34 per cent of the engagements and the average age of placement was 22 years.

Skillset General Manager, Jane McWilliam said Skillset has services available to reach a larger population looking for career support.

“Skillset have defied the perception that we only employ younger people looking in apprenticeships and traineeships. We are now able to provide assistance at all points of the employment life-cycle from when an individual leaves school, seeking a trade, finishing university, returning to work after a career break or looking for a career transition. We also cater to businesses skills needs through our permanent recruitment, labour hire and group training services.”

The leading industries individuals were placed in were local government, construction, manufacturing and transport and storage.

“We continue to see a demand for tradespeople in the Central West and Far West Orana. We see businesses seeking apprentices, trainees, school-based apprentices or trainees, and fully qualified tradespeople. The SkillForce campaign provides businesses with a mechanism to not only fulfil their business needs but know they’re making a positive impact to their local community by providing employment opportunities,” said Ms McWilliam.

The work continues for Skillset with the announcement of the Australian Government’s extension of the Boosting Apprenticeship Commencement Wage Subsidy.

Employers may be eligible for a subsidy of fifty per cent of gross wages paid to a new or recommencing apprentice or trainee for a 12-month period of commencement up to 30 September 2021.

To find out more about the Boosting Apprenticeship Commencements subsidy and how Skillset may be able to support individuals and businesses, call 1300 853 525 or email info@skillset.com.au

THE ANZAC SPIRIT TRULY REMAINS ALIVE AND WELL IN 2021, DESPITE THE MANY CHALLENGES WE HAVE FACED

Submitted By Cass Coleman

Several residents within the Lithgow Local Government area decided either to stand in their driveway, on their balcony or in their living room at 6am, to remember all those who have served and sacrificed for their country.

I chose to start the day by paying my respects at dawn in the Lithgow Queen Elizabeth Park, then travel back to Portland for the 11am Service.

That afternoon I took the time to catch up with several local stallholders at the Tarana Markets, then finished my day by watching the magnificent Lithgow Highland Pipe Band play at the Lithgow Workmen’s Club.

At the Tarana markets I met some wonderful local producers. Rob Milnes and his wife Jenni of Milnes Providore Caterers recently moved to Portland.

They are continuing to build on the success of their business by providing high quality catering services and a great range of gourmet item such as Balsamic vinegars infused with a range of flavours including white caramel,

Sustainability is the key to securing the future of the Lithgow local government area. It is great to see local people taking the initiative to develop great small business ventures.

VERTO WELCOMES CAREERS NSW INITIATIVE TO ADDRESS SKILLS SHORTAGES Training and employment services provider, VERTO, has welcomed the NSW Government’s Careers NSW initiative, recognising it as a critical step in boosting apprentice commencements to address skill shortages.

The Careers NSW initiative will connect people at all career stages to real-world career advice and support to find the right pathways into in-demand industries, including advanced manufacturing and construction.

“Australia’s national skills deficit is predicted to reach 29 million by 2030. Careers NSW will connect people to the right career pathways and is an important step towards addressing this shortfall,” VERTO Chief Executive Officer Ron Maxwell said.

With apprenticeships expected to play a significant role in Australia’s economic recovery, Mr Maxwell hopes the initiative will increase commencements in NSW. “Declining apprenticeship numbers have been a concern for some time and it’s crucial that we rectify this as we move into economic recovery,” he said.

“Apprenticeships are a critical mechanism to address youth unemployment, upskill and retrain displaced workers and help businesses grow in the wake of the pandemic.”

The initiative, which will begin this year with a full roll out by 2022, is open to those at all career levels, from school leavers to mature-aged workers.

“Apprenticeships are often seen as a career option for school leavers, but they are also a great option for more experienced workers to transition to a new career in an industry with excellent job prospects,” Mr Maxwell said.

“Because apprentices earn while they learn, it’s also a fantastic opportunity to transition careers without losing an income.”

As the pandemic recedes, there are a number of apprenticeship incentives and initiatives on offer. VERTO supports apprentices and employers across NSW, ACT and Victoria with all their employment and training needs. For more information visit www.verto.org.au or phone 1300 4 VERTO (1300 483 786).

Rocketman, Saturday 1st May at 8:30pm on Nine Our region has a very special connection with Elton John after his recent visit and concert so it only seems right to spend Saturday evening with our favourite Brit rocker! Great cast starring Taron Egerton (of The Kingsman fame), Jamie Bell (first known as Billy from Billy Elliot), Richard Madden (Game of Thrones) and Bryce Dallas Howard (Jurassic World).

Young Reginald Dwight changes his name to Elton John and collaborates with singer-songwriter Bernie Taupin to become one of the most iconic figures in pop history. Set to his most beloved songs, it's the epic musical story of Elton John, his breakthrough years in the 1970s and his fantastical transformation from shy piano prodigy to international superstar.

SENDING THE DIGGER HOME

The antiques and collectibles business see many interesting things unearthed.

For local businesswoman Heather formerly from the Barking Owl in Main Street, Lithgow, and husband Eric Mahony, this was a portrait of a young serviceman from World War I, which turned up as part of a larger purchase.

Eric and Heather's view is that items like these, where possible, should be returned to the families and communities where they came from.

After researching the find, they found the young man, John Dargaville, who originated from the New South Wales country town of Nabiac inland from Foster.

They are now working with the subbranch of the RSL in Nabiac to find a home for the young man's portrait. The 28-year-old left Nabiac and found himself on the Western Front in France, where he was wounded twice. In the closing months of the war, he was gassed only to return to his unit and back onto the battlefield.

Despite all the close calls, the young man survived the war and returned to Australia to live until he was 86.

His family, whose father had died not long before the commencement of the war, saw 3 of their 4 sons enlist, with a second serving at Gallipoli and France and the third enlisting with the New Zealand Expeditionary Force (NZEF).

"When we can find links, we are happy to return the item to the community from where they had come from because of their importance to the local family, social history and fabric of these country towns," said Eric Mahony.

"I would be thrilled if something like this was returned to my family as little material records exist for my Irish grandfather Peter Mahony, who enlisted into the British Royal Garrison Artillery (RGA) unit and served in the Middle East during World War I." Eric and Heather will travel to Nabiac to take the item home after the ANZAC weekend.

ALLEGRI SINGERS POST COVID-19, 2021 In November, 2019, the Allegri Singers presented what for many people was a once in a lifetime musical performance. To packed houses, in two venues, for many of the performers and audience members, Karl Jenkins’ The Armed Man was the most powerful, emotional music ever experienced.

The essence of the occasion was captured in Bathurst City Life’s excellent front-page picture of Musical Director, William Moxey, at the close of the performance in Bathurst’s All Saints’ Cathedral.

The question in everyone’s mind at Allegri Singers was, “Whatever next?” It was indeed, a hard act to follow.

Preparations began for a light concert in May 2020 – rehearsals commenced, venue was booked, publicity was about to be launched...and...of course, COVID-19 happened, and all plans were cancelled.

The following months were, to put it mildly – interesting. In an endeavour to maintain an esprit de corps, an invitation was issued to all choir members to participate in ‘Zoom’ rehearsals. While this was too daunting a prospect for some, a modest group convened, and began Zooming. Well, imagine a choir whose musical director can see everyone, but hear nothing, choristers who can hear the YouTube musical piece but not each other.

The technical difficulties of synchronisation were too hard and too expensive to contemplate. However, the group persevered, and learnt some wonderful and challenging pieces of music. They could also claim, at the end of the exercise, they had sung with some of the finest choirs and orchestras in the world...via YouTube!

As COVID restrictions relaxed somewhat, the choir was able to resume live rehearsals, first, thanks to the

20

generosity of the Uniting Church, in the church’s car park, to the occasional accompaniment of a hammer drill in the adjoining office block. As the weather cooled off, they accepted the offer of an indoor space at the Bathurst Showground, and now rehearse in All Saints’ Cathedral’s Walshaw Hall.

So, back to the question, “What next?” With further easing of restrictions, it is now possible for choirs to rehearse and present music to audiences, provided current COVID advice is followed. Allegri Singers are preparing a program for performance in St. Raphael’s Church in Cowra, on Saturday, 22 May and in All Saints’ Cathedral, Bathurst, on Sunday, 23 May. While members of the choir are relieved and happy to be able to sing together again, they are also very mindful of our good fortune, and of the trauma prevailing throughout the world, where many have friends and relations experiencing pain and difficulty.

It is hoped this concert will bring some moments of reflection and joy to audiences. Under the title Music for a While, it comprises both sacred and secular works, which capture the beauty of the earth, and the faith which helps many on their journey through hardship, to renewal and peace. If this all sounds a bit heavy, there are some lighter pieces, and a bit of comic relief!

Allegri Singers will also be participating in the Festival of Bells, in Bathurst, which takes place on Saturday and Sunday, 8-9 May. In August, all being well, they will take part in the Blackheath Choir Festival.

The major concerts of the year will be performances of Handel’s ‘Messiah’ in November. Dates and venues will be finalised soon.

So, all being well, it’s going to be a busy year for Allegri Singers. But if COVID-19 has taught us anything, it is…

ALWAYS HAVE A PLAN B! Zooming again?? Let’s hope not!

Tickets for the May concerts are available, $30 Adult $25 Concession Child/Student free, from trybooking.com or cash only at BooksPlus (Bathurst concert only) or at the door.

SET IN STONE – AUSTRALIAN QUARRIES AND BUILDING STONES FROM OUR REGION Great news for architects and lovers of heritage buildings built out of stone!

SMALL BUSINESS REBATE: Member for Bathurst Paul Toole: “Eligible small businesses can now sign up for a new $1500 rebate scheme to help cover the cost of NSW and local government fees and charges”.

SMALL BUSINESS REBATE SCHEME KICKS OFF Eligible small businesses across the region can now sign up for a new $1500 rebate scheme to help cover the cost of NSW and local government fees and charges.

An Architects OutWest presentation by architect Kieran McInerney is to be held at Bathurst’s iconic Abercrombie House on Ophir Road.

This talk will be complemented by an Architectural Tour of the house including the recently restored basement by owner, Christopher Morgan on Thursday 29 April 2021, 3:30pm to 5:30pm.

The talk will focus on building stones from near Bathurst, including Limekilns, Orange, Molong and Cowra.

A paraphrased introduction to "Building and Ornamental Stones of Australia" a Sydney Technological Museum publication from 1915 stated, “Australia has an unlimited supply of building and ornamental stones. It is hoped that this (book) will lead to a greater appreciation of our resources.. and the gradual development of... a style of architectural decoration purely Australian.”

Unfortunately, the author's 100 year old hopes have not

been realised.

What do Australian Building stones look like, what are their qualities and why are they not more readily available? And what can we do about it?

These are some of the questions to discuss and answer, hopefully with the audience’s help.

To register for the event, contact ingrid@bigpond.com. Cost is $25 per person, payable at the door.

Abercrombie House

The Small Business Fees and Charges Rebate is designed to benefit tens of thousands of small businesses across the state as NSW continues its post-pandemic recovery.

The Government’s November 2020 Budget committed nearly $500 million to this rebate, which will leave more money in the pockets of eligible small businesses, sole traders and nonprofit organisations.

Small businesses are the lifeblood of our economy and supporting them equals supporting jobs.

Claiming the rebate is be simple and could be done online.

Liquor licences, food authority licences, council rates and outdoor seating fees are just a few examples of the fees and charges that can be claimed back through this rebate scheme.

I encourage all eligible small businesses to register for the $1500 credit through Service NSW. Small businesses who have total wages below the new 2020-21 $1.2 million payroll tax threshold, and have a turnover of at least $75,000 per year, will be able to register through their MyServiceNSW account and claim back eligible state and local government fees and changes.

The rebate will be available until 30 June 2022. To apply and for more information, including the program guidelines, visit www.service. nsw.gov.au/smallbusiness-fees-andcharges-rebate

MIDWEST RUGBY LEAGUE KICKS OFF The elevated mood in the sheds after Portland Colts’ strong firstround defeat of premiers Oberon in the Wallerawang Landscaping Cup was as much due to the 24-point win as the knowledge they have a side that will compete at the highest level in the Midwest competition this year.

Story and Photos By John Fitzgerald

Co-coaches Kyle Wilmott and Jake Gale were pleased season ahead, allowed themselves only short celebrations.

Well prepared after months of preparation, the Colts had points on the board after Mick Miller was across for a try, converted by Neville Turner.

Eight minutes later Shannon Rhodes was across to extend the Colts’ lead, and following Turner’s conversion, took a 12-nil lead to the break.

Wilmott, ready to play if needed but watching from the sidelines, was composed with his halftime talk, knowing his players were working to the game plan.

Soon after the restart Turner was across in the corner, the conversion of his own try giving Portland an 18-point lead.

With the comfort of an expected win the team relaxed their stranglehold which allowed Oberon a try through 30-6 win.

Oberon were no pushover. Portland had to work hard for their win against still-powerful opposition and never slackened pressure for the entire game.
