Boost for families

Pictured at this week’s announcement of a new early learning centre at Deakin University’s Warrnambool campus are Professor Damian Blake (Deakin University head of school education, faculty of arts and education), Warrnambool mayor Cr Ben Blain, Member for Western Victoria Jacinta Ermacora, Mark Fidge (South West TAFE) and Bryan Everett (Deakin University).

A NEW purpose-built early learning centre “For many years, families in the southwest have been early years community because of the connection and will open at Deakin University’s Warrnambool calling for more early education and care places,” Ms relationships that have been built up over the years at the Sherwood Park site,” Ms Love said. Ermacora said. campus in 2028. Speaking at the official announcement on-site earlier this week, Member for Western Victoria Jacinta Ermacora said the new centre would help fill a void for local families in need of childcare, along with those wanting three and four year-old kinder. And in a first for the region, the centre will provide early childhood education and tertiary learning under the one roof. The centre (the result of a partnership between the state government, Deakin University, South West TAFE and Warrnambool City Council) will train the region’s future early educators, supporting students in both the TAFE Diploma and new Bachelor of Early Childhood Education. The new facility will include a training and observation room where students will have the opportunity to learn from experienced educators and observe high-quality practice in action. With 130 places for local children, the centre will provide long day care and three and four year-old kinder programs – and will have a dedicated space for child, family and community services.

“With this investment, we’re also delivering a real boost for the region’s early childhood workforce and I can’t wait to see it in action when the doors open in 2028.” According to Minister for Children Lizzie Blandthorn, the centre puts students on campus learning alongside experienced educators. “More local children will have access to quality early education, with more time to learn through play before school,” she said. Warrnambool mayor Cr Ben Blain welcomed this week’s announcement saying it was great news for Warrnambool families and children. “This new centre at the Deakin campus will help cater to the increasing demand in our growing city,” he said. “It also underscores the need for an early years centre of excellence to help bolster the growing need for more qualified early years educators.” According to council’s director of city wellbeing, Brooke Love, the new centre at Deakin will replace council’s 35place Sherwood Park Early Learning Centre. “We know the new early years centre is great for Warrnambool yet it’s also a little bitter-sweet for our

“Council needs more early years educators across our services and it’s our intention to retain all of the expertise and experience of our Sherwood Park team. “We will enter into discussions about how we transition our Sherwood Park staff into our other 11 kinders and early learning centres.” Ms Love said that, at this stage, council understands the state government will open the new Deakin facility for the start of 2028, which allows time for a transition that works for both Sherwood Park staff and council. “Council currently supports a number of trainees within our facilities to achieve their qualifications and we also support staff who are upskilling to higher qualifications,” she said. As with private providers, council has also experienced workforce shortages and therefore welcomes the opportunity to support students with further early years studies. “We want these staff to continue with us and we recognise we’re going to need more kindergarten teachers, diploma educators and Cert III educators for our kindergartens and early learning services.”

Telstra outage affects performance figures

WarrnamboolWeekly l 126 Manifold St, Camperdown. 3260 Telephone (03) 5593 1888 TO CONTACT US

LAST month’s nation-wide Telstra outage resulted in a dip in performance levels on the Warrnambool train line.

During July, the Warrnambool line’s reliability performance dipped to 94.8 per cent while punctuality fell to 88.1 per cent. Both reliability and performance results were the lowest for 2026, with the leading cause of cancelled or delayed services attributed to the Telstra outage. The outage resulted in 12 Warrnambool line trains cancelled on July 8 and 9. A V/Line spokesperson said more than 100 coaches were able to be sourced each day to assist passengers with their movements, including on the Warrnambool line. “The Warrnambool line recorded almost 95 per cent reliability and 88 per cent punctuality in July, despite being impacted by the nationwide Telstra outage,” the spokesperson said. “We thank passengers who had service changes or delays during this time for their patience and understanding. “Over the past year, the Warrnambool line has been one of the best performing on the V/Line network, consistently meeting punctuality and reliability targets.” The outage interrupted what had been a steady rise following the completion of upgrade works which saw modern VLocity trains added to the line. In the past 12 months the Warrnambool line has recorded 98.7 per cent reliability and 93.8 per cent punctuality. Passengers planning to travel on the Warrnambool line are encouraged to plan ahead and make a reservation in advance by booking online, at a staffed V/Line station, by calling 1800 800 007 or by visiting a retail ticket agent.

Mental health support To the Editor, Revelations about Victoria’s Mental Health and Wellbeing Levy raise serious questions about why families are still struggling to access basic mental health support despite more than $1 billion a year being collected through the levy. It has been widely reported today that while Victorian mental health spending has risen from around $2 billion in 2020 to about $3 billion, analysis indicates this is only around $200 million above what would have been expected without the levy. The levy itself is now raising around $1.2 billion every year. That money was introduced following the Royal Commission into Victoria’s mental health system to provide dedicated additional funding to transform a system everyone agreed was broken. It was never supposed to simply replace existing government funding. Philippa Thomas, chief executive of peak body Mental Health Victoria, has said that what our modelling makes absolutely clear, is that funding is not meeting what the Royal Commission intended. Ms Thomas said the levy was designed to

created by the government paring back its own underlying mental health spending, then Victorians have every right to feel they have been hoodwinked. People across the South West Coast don’t care about accounting tricks. They care whether their child can see someone when they are in distress, whether a family member can get an appointment before reaching crisis point, and whether help is available close to home. After a Royal Commission, billions of dollars in promised reform and a levy raising around $1.2 billion every year, people have every right to ask: where are the additional services we were promised? South West Coast should be seeing better services, greater access and a stronger mental health workforce. The government needs to explain exactly where the Mental Health and Wellbeing Levy has gone and demonstrate that this money has genuinely been additional to the mental health funding that would otherwise have been provided. People experiencing mental illness, and the families desperately trying to help them, deserve the system they were promised.

add to increased mental health spending, not compensate for funding when it was pared back. And that goes to the heart of the problem. Victorians were told this levy would provide additional money to rebuild and transform our mental health system. It was not supposed to become a substitute for money the state government would otherwise have spent. Here in South West Coast we certainly aren’t seeing the transformation families were promised. Families are struggling to get their loved ones into appointments when they are experiencing mental health issues, particularly children and young people. Too often people cannot get the help they need, even when the situation has reached the point of crisis. Our GPs are overwhelmed, while community organisations such as Let’s Talk are doing everything they can to support people and carry an increasing workload. Victorians were also promised greater mental health support in schools, but schools are struggling to recruit the people needed to actually fill these positions. The Royal Commission was supposed to be a turning point. If the levy is simply being used to fill a hole

Walkway trial now in place PEOPLE will no longer need to walk on the road, or try to balance on a narrow kerb in Flaherty Lane, with Warrnambool City Council set to trial a dedicated two metre wide pedestrian walkway. To accommodate this, Flaherty Lane is now an exit only for vehicles. Vehicles seeking to enter Ozone Carpark will be directed to enter via Timor Street. The trial was first proposed earlier this year and will last for three months from August 18. Warrnambool mayor Cr Ben Blain said that the aim was to make Flaherty Lane safer for people walking between Ozone Carpark and Kepler Street. “At the moment, people walking through Flaherty Lane either have to use the narrow kerb or share the road with vehicles entering and leaving the carpark,” he said. “That becomes particularly difficult for people using mobility aids or pushing prams. “Creating a dedicated walkway will provide a clear separation between people and vehicles.” Cr Blain said that changes to De Grandi Lane and the intersection of Timor and Gilles streets have significantly improved pedestrian safety while Ozone carpark retained its high levels of usage. “With the changes to the carpark earlier this year, safety has really improved in De Grandi Lane while the carpark itself has continued to be popular,” he said. “The Flaherty Lane trial aims to further improve safety in the carpark. “As with any change, there can be a bit of an adjustment period, which is why we’re trialling the new arrangement in Flaherty Lane for three months.

Flaherty Lane is now an exit only for vehicles (for the next three months) with this week’s introduction of a trial, two metre wide pedestrian walkway.

“We will gather feedback from nearby businesses as well as people who use the carpark, and we will also collect speed and traffic data. “At the end of the trial, we will use that information to decide whether the arrangement should continue or whether

Flaherty Lane should revert to its previous configuration.” Opportunities to provide feedback will begin approximately four weeks after the trial commences. Work to carry out the line marking and to install appropriate barriers took place

earlier this week. Users will be able to exit the carpark via the alternate Kepler Street laneway. Motorists and pedestrians are advised to observe all signage, with traffic control onsite to assist in movements.

Silver for Port Fairy PORT Fairy has ﬁnished second in Victoria’s 2026 Top Small Tourism Town award (population 1500-5,000), just behind overall category winner Portarlington. Third place in the ‘small town’ category went to Camperdown. Echuca won gold in the Top Tourism Town (population over 5,000) category, followed by Bendigo and Ballarat. In the tiny town category (population under 1500) gold went to Portsea, followed by Glenrowan and Port Campbell. Victoria’s top tourism town award winners were announced during a special

presentation evening at the Victorian Tourism Conference in Morwell last Wednesday, August 12. Presented by the Victorian Tourism Industry Council (VTIC), the awards recognise towns that deliver outstanding visitor experiences, with 22 finalist destinations competing across three categories. Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment, The Hon. Natalie Suleyman thanked all the nominees on their outstanding contribution to Victoria’s visitor economy and congratulated all winners for their well-deserved recognition. “Victoria’s tourism businesses are a

powerhouse for our economy. These awards recognise the towns that help make our state a leading destination for visitors,” Ms Suleyman said. “Their contribution is significant and Labor is proud to back the jobs and opportunities that tourism brings to communities right across Victoria.” VTIC chief executive officer Lisa Patroni said the awards celebrated the communities, tourism operators, volunteers and local businesses that make Victoria and its regions one of Australia’s most soughtafter visitor destinations. This year’s entries attracted a combined 30,000 public votes.

“One of the things I love most about these awards is the pride communities take in welcoming visitors,” Ms Patroni said. “Towns rally behind one another because they understand tourism isn’t just about attracting people to visit – it’s about creating opportunities for our state. “Every finalist has earned its place. Whether it’s incredible food and wine, breathtaking natural landscapes, rich cultural heritage or unforgettable local experiences, these destinations showcase the very best of regional Victoria.” Ms Patroni said tourism remained one of Victoria’s strongest economic drivers contributing $48.6 billion to the Victorian economy in 2025-26, while supporting more than 322,000 jobs and almost 110,000 tourism businesses. “When visitors stay an extra night, book a local experience or enjoy a meal in town, they’re investing directly in Victoria’s economy and that’s why these awards matter. “They recognise the destinations that consistently deliver exceptional visitor experiences while supporting local economies.” The Victorian Top Tourism Town Awards are determined through a combination of public voting and independent judging, assessing each destination’s visitor appeal, tourism excellence and collaboration across the local community. Port Fairy’s recent silver medal adds yet another accolade to a trophy cabinet already packed with state and national tourism honours. Moyne Shire mayor Cr Jordan Lockett said the award was a great reflection of the people, experiences and places that make Port Fairy such a popular destination. “This is a phenomenal result for Port Fairy and something the whole community should be incredibly proud of,” Cr Lockett said. The award is the latest in a string of success for Port Fairy at the annual event. The town entered the Hall of Fame after winning gold in 2021 and 2022 and went on to claim silver again in 2025. The town also claimed silver at the Australian Tourism Town Awards in 2021. The win follows Port Fairy’s recent success in the Australian Traveller Top 100 Towns rankings, where the town was named number four in Australia and number one in Victoria as well as being Australia’s best town for festivals and events. “Port Fairy has so much to offer, from its beautiful beaches, coastline and natural environment to its history, cultural heritage, arts, festivals, food and hospitality,” Cr Lockett said. “But what really sets it apart are the people who bring all of that to life. Our businesses, tourism operators, volunteers, artists, event organisers and community groups all play an important role in creating the experience visitors enjoy. “Tourism continues to play a vital role in supporting local jobs, businesses and investment opportunities across Port Fairy and Moyne Shire.” Port Fairy is also a gateway to the broader Moyne region, with visitors drawn to its historic towns, agricultural landscapes, local produce and the rich cultural heritage and stories that have shaped the region. Cr Lockett said the recognition was an opportunity to celebrate what makes the destination unique and to pay tribute to the work of council’s hard working tourism team. “Visitors might come for the beaches and beauty of Port Fairy, but there is so much more to discover across Moyne,” he said. “Our visitor services team and volunteers go above and beyond to make sure visitors have everything they need to get the full Moyne Shire experience - this award is a huge credit to the work they do to promote our region.”

Grafﬁti concerns continue

FOR more than four years Lisette Mill has been pushing for the removal of “unsightly” grafﬁti from undeath the Panmure bridge. The pedestrian path that winds under the bridge, leading visitors from the nearby car park to the town’s popular swimming hole and diving board, also takes visitors past an array of graffiti. Lisette is concerned this can leave a lasting, unfavourable impression of the town in the minds of visitors. “People should be talking about how great our town is, particularly in the summer when hordes of people come down to swim in the river and jump off the diving board,” she said. “But instead their walk takes them past all this graffiti. “There has been extensive work completed under the bridge over the past 12 months or so yet nothing has been done to remove all this graffiti. Surely the department responsible can afford some concrete paint to cover this up?” Lisette said she had continued to

raise the issue with the Department of Transport and Planning since 2022 with no resolution. She also expressed her concerns with Member for Western Victoria Jacinta Ermacora on several occasions. “Jacinta did forward the issues I had raised to the department but was told these matters were not within the footprint of bridge works which were undertaken last year and, more recently, earlier this year,” Lisette said. “But given those works, which were focused on further stabilising the bridge from underneath, occurred right where the graffiti is, surely they could have covered the graffiti at the same time? Is paint really that expensive? “If someone went to Bunnings and bought the paint I’d do the work myself.” According to staff at Ms Ermacora’s office, the local member has been “very happy” to have ongoing discussions with Lisette in the past about this issue, and while she understands and appreciates Lisette’s concerns, graffiti is not within the score of bridgeworks funding. “The advice provided by the Department of Transport and Planning

is that when undertaking major works, the department does not prioritise maintenance (such as graffiti) outside the location in which the upgrade is taking place.” According to Moyne Shire mayor Cr Jordan Lockett, the bridge over Mt Emu Creek at Panmure is a state-managed public asset. “The Department of Transport and Planning undertook works on the bridge

during the past 12 months through a $2.49 million investment in reinforcing the bridge structures,” Cr Lockett said. “Any issues relating to the bridge are the responsibility of the relevant state body. “Concerns about the bridge structure or road surface are the responsibility of DPT and in the case of graffiti, Victoria Police is the enforcement agency.”

Lisette Mill is frustrated and concerned that graffiti under the Panmure bridge is yet to be removed, almost four years on from when she first brought it to the attention of the Department of Transport and Planning.

Moyne Shire Council Community Update

Port Fairy wins Silver The path under the bridge leads from the car park to the water hole and diving board.

Last week Port Fairy took home the silver in the small town category at the Victorian Top Tourism Town Awards, confirming the town’s standing as one of the premium destinations in the state. The latest silver at these awards joins gold wins in 2021 and 2022, a hall of fame induction and another silver in 2025 and a silver at the Australian Top Tourism Town Awards in 2021. The award is a fitting reflection of the people, experiences and places that make Port Fairy such a popular destination for visitors, and something everyone in Moyne Shire can be incredibly proud of.

A celebration of community KOROIT Primary School’s inaugural ‘Winter Lights and Delights’ has been hailed a huge success. Despite Saturday’s cool, wintry conditions, a large crowd turned out for the event to enjoy what became a warm celebration of community, country life and local creativity. A display of vintage vehicles, tractors and stationary engines proved popular among people of all ages, as did the array of market stalls, food, music and family activities. “The Koroit Port Fairy SES and the Koroit CFA also brought along service vehicles and trucks which added to the attractions and both also took some extra lights to ensure the pathways were safely lit,” staff member Brooke Stewart said. “The silent art auction had some heated bidding wars, with a Ben Fennesey piece reaching over $220.

Greens announce South West Coast candidate

THE Greens have announced Warrnambool’s Silver Rose as their candidate for South West Coast ahead of the November state election.

Silver said the decision to run for the seat stemmed from feeling “completely fed up” with the lack of representation for communities across the district. “I got tired of not feeling represented by any of the options, or feeling unable to trust that they really had mine or my communities’ best interest in mind,” she said. “If you can’t see what you want, sometimes you have to be the person you wish you could see. “Over the years I saw community independents like Alex Dyson and Carol Altmann bravely challenge the political landscape in the South West Coast seat, and I’ve been inspired. “Inspired to stand up for what I believe our community deserves, and be proudly Green and proudly progressive in the process.” Among the leading issues which Silver believes will need to be addressed to improve the conditions for south west residents are affordable housing, public transport, lack of access to healthcare, cost of living and climate. “These are the issues that everyday south west locals can’t escape,” she said. “They’re the issues we’ve been told that just can’t be fixed because they’re too complicated or too costly. “I simply don’t believe that anymore. “We see what they prioritise funding for.” Silver said many residents were feeling it was impossible to secure a roof over

their heads due to the exorbitant costs of renting – much less buying a property. “Homelessness is unfortunately a common result, and our local services that are dangerously underfunded on shortterm funding commitments can’t keep up anymore,” she said. “In my work in youth homelessness I’ve seen first-hand how the lack of affordable housing impacts real people. “I refuse to accept a future where keeping our children and young people housed and safe isn’t the bare minimum.” She said the region’s public transport was either non-existent or unreliable, which limits the public from being able to freely travel across such a large area. “This limits employment and education opportunities, social connectedness and contribution, and further disenfranchises a significant portion of the south west community,” she said. “We deserve access to public transport that is free, frequent and reaches every part of the South West Coast, not just Warrnambool.” Silver said a lack of access to healthcare had reached a point which was presenting a danger to residents. “Our general practitioners (GP) are booked solid, our hospitals are desperate for staff in all areas, and I’ve personally had to travel over two hours for a single specialist appointment,” she said. “I could access that healthcare because I had a car, money to pay for the appointment, and a GP to help me find a provider. “This is a never-ending, painful and expensive experience for those with chronic health conditions. “The Greens believe government is

Warrnambool’s Silver Rose will be among the candidates on the ballot for South West Coast at this year’s state election. responsible for funding universal, timely health care for all Victorians and for ensuring equality of access regardless of ability to pay, and I wholeheartedly agree.” Silver said she expected this year’s election to be unpredictable as members of the community looked to genuine options outside of the major parties. “This election will be one of the most volatile we’ve seen, precisely because south west locals have given the Liberal Party decades of chances, and they continue to make it clear that their allegiance lies with their billionaire mates, not our community,” she said. “South West Coast deserves leadership they can trust to not be bought, and The Greens don’t accept corporate donations. “This, along with Greens policies that will immediately address our ongoing housing crisis, cost of living and access to healthcare, are why I align with The Greens.

“We both want what’s best for everyday people living everyday lives in the south west, and we’re willing to demand change.” Silver said she looked forward to upcoming opportunities to speak with residents ahead of the election, learning more about what issues need to be addressed and making her pitch for a progressive voice leading the south west. “I’ve attended several community events in western Victoria in the past few weeks to meet with community members, and I plan on spending as much time as I can on the road in the region,” she said. “It’s especially important to me to connect with those who live outside of Warrnambool, in more rural areas or smaller towns around the region. “I’m organising many opportunities to meet with community members across the region in the coming weeks.”

Kings College students celebrate their win.

Fifth consecutive win for King’s KING’S College has continued its dominance of the Science and Engineering Challenge, winning the 2026 event for the fifth consecutive year. The win didn’t come easy for the year 9/10 students, with fierce competition among the top three place getters – with just 13 points separating King’s from second-placed Portland Secondary and third placed Timboon P-12. The challenge for senior students was held on Monday, August 10 and also included students from Warrnambool College, Terang College, Colac Secondary and Bayview College. Tuesday, August 11 was ‘discovery day’ for year 5/6 students with top honours going to St Joseph’s School. Other schools represented included Merrivale Primary, Koroit, Allansford, Terang and Mortlake. According to organisers, 385 students took part in the challenge over the two days, with around 40 volunteers from many community groups including Rotary, Lions, Deakin students and the Neil Porter Legacy. “I had many comments from teachers and volunteers about how engaged the students were this year,” Brooke McLeod said. “The competition was tight and we’re now starting to see real momentum within returning schools. “School students know of the program and bring a school-based competitiveness with them which is great to see. “It’s also pleasing that of the 385 students who attended, 47.5 per cent were female which is a great boost for our regional students.” Ms McLeod said the aim of the program was to provide equity and access for regional students to get hands-on and try STEM based skills to inspire students to take on STEM based subjects and careers. “Our aim as a Rotary Club is to remove the barrier of cost to these students and to supply them with equitable educational outcomes,” she said. “We would love to expand the program to reach even more students but this is based on sponsorship of local organisations and industries. “We’re currently working with the Rotary Club of Hamilton to run a one day program up there in either 2027 or 2028.” Since the program began in Warrnambool in 2013 it has attracted more than 2400 students on-site. Students compete in eight activities which included creating an artificial hand to grasp and move objects, sending coded messages using light beams, creating windmill blades to generate RPMs and building an ‘ecohouse’ that could hold weight, withstand high winds and catch water for use. “Along with all our volunteers, we’re also very grateful to all our sponsors who help make this event the success that it is.”

Warrnambool College students put their skills to the test.

Electricity challenges tested the minds of young students.

MP calls for planning transparency SOUTH West Coast MP Roma Britnell has called for greater transparency and community consultation in the state’s planning system, following concerns raised by residents about developments occurring in their neighbourhoods. Ms Britnell recently told Parliament that residents across the region are increasingly contacting her after learning about significant developments only once work has commenced, tenders have been issued, or construction fencing has been erected. She said residents should have clear information about proposals that may affect their homes, streets and communities, and should have meaningful opportunities to understand and respond to those proposals. Ms Britnell cited concerns raised by Warrnambool residents about a proposed rooming house, including questions about parking and the potential impact on the surrounding neighbourhood. She also raised concerns from residents who had become aware of a proposed high-security development involving a fence topped with razor wire. Ms Britnell said the limited information available to neighbours had contributed to uncertainty and anxiety. Other residents have contacted her about renewable energy and battery storage proposals, raising questions including stormwater management, fire hazards and impacts on neighbouring properties. “These issues demonstrate the importance of providing communities with timely and accessible information about significant developments” she said. “I’m also concerned about the increasing centralisation of planning decision-making, including the use of fast-track approval pathways and ministerial intervention powers. “Residents deserve to know what is being proposed in their neighbourhoods and to have an opportunity to understand and contribute to decisions that affect their communities.” Ms Britnell also noted that good planning should recognise the value of local knowledge and give communities access to information before decisions are made, rather than leaving residents to find out after construction has begun. “The Liberal Party has committed to returning consultation to communities as an essential part of good planning,” she said. “Residents should have confidence that their concerns will be heard and that information about significant developments will be available to them in a timely way.”

Roma Britnell is concerned residents are being left in the dark about developments taking place in their neighbourhoods.

Magpies return as swooping season begins WITH the onset of spring fast approaching, residents are being reminded to take simple steps to stay safe around magpies and other swooping birds.

Victorian law. Harassing, harming or disturbing native birds and other wildlife is illegal and penalties apply. Anyone who witnesses wildlife crime, including the harassment, harm or disturbance of native wildlife, can Department of Energy, Environment report it to Crime Stoppers Victoria on Magpies and other swooping birds will be prevalent throughout spring. and Climate Action (DEECA) manager 1800 333 000. wildlife emergencies and welfare services, Tony English, said swooping occurs during the breeding season for some native birds. “Swooping is a natural and temporary behaviour that some native birds use to protect their eggs and chicks during the breeding season,” Mr English said. “Swooping is their way of telling you to keep your distance.” While being swooped can feel unsettling, it is rare for birds to make contact, with incidents occurring in urban and rural areas, including parks, gardens, playgrounds, roadsides and shared walking and cycling paths. Mr English said some birds within a species are more aggressive than others. “The presence of magpies or other birds commonly associated with swooping does not necessarily mean you will be swooped,” he said. “The behaviour is usually short-lived and ends once young birds have left the nest.” Local residents and visitors to the city can reduce the risk of being swooped by avoiding known swooping hotspots, moving quickly and calmly through the area rather than running, wearing protective head and eye coverings when needed, avoiding harassing birds, which can increase defensive behaviour, and not feeding birds or disturbing nests. People can help others stay informed by reporting swooping incidents to Victoria’s interactive swooping bird map at https://www.wildlife.vic.gov.au/ managing-wildlife/swooping-birds. Cyclists and pedestrians are reminded to take extra care as swooping season begins. All native wildlife is protected under

Light lambs weighing 12 to 16kg sold from $95 to $158 of 300 head. The lamb offering was relatively small with quality ranging from plain to mixed. The better quality lines were mostly supplementary fed and comprised predominantly medium weight trade lambs with only a very limited number of quality lightweight trade lambs available. Not all regular buyers were present and some were less active than usual. The market softened for most trade lambs easing by $10 to $20/head largely due to quality. As a result more lambs returned to the paddock reflecting the mixed quality of the offering.

while trade lambs in the 18 to 22kg range made $193 to $245/head. Lambs weighing 22 to 26kg sold from $245 to $277 and heavier trade lambs made from $279 to a top of $350/head. Hoggets sold to $212/head. In a small sheep yarding heavy sheep gained $15 to $20/head while medium and light mutton remained unchanged. Medium and light mutton averaged between 700c and 900c/kg cwt. Crossbred ewes sold to $290 Merino ewes to $220 and crossbred wethers to $265/head. Terminal rams reached $129 while Merino rams sold to $140/head. Market Reporter: Chris Agnew, MLA.
