Summer’s here; prepare for fire

SUMMER has arrived, and people across the shire are getting their properties ﬁre ready and practicing their bushﬁre plans with their families.

The Fire Danger Period (FDP) started on Monday 20 November and Corangamite Shire manager environment and emergency Lyall Bond encouraged residents to clear around their properties. “With a drier and hotter El Niño summer forecast, CFA have declared the Fire Danger Period earlier than previous years,” he said. “The ﬁre season has begun, so it’s a good

time to start preparing now instead of leaving it until the last minute. “We live in one of the most bushfire prone areas of the country so even if you live in town, significant bush, long grass or coastal scrub is not far away. “Because the pressure is on in an emergency, we might not think clearly.” Mr Bond said a written and well-practised plan can help residents remember what needs to be done in the event of a fire. “Everyone’s home and needs are different so it’s important to have a personalised plan,” he said. “What action will you take when the

fire Danger Rating is High, Extreme or Catastrophic? When will you leave? Where will you go? What will you take? “You might need to plan alternative exit routes in case a road is cut. You need Plans A, B and C for when parents are at work and children are at school, and other variables. “To help you plan, you can download the CFA’s ‘Bushfire survival planning template – Leaving early’ from cfa.vic.gov.au/planprepare/before-and-during-a-fire/yourbushfire-plan.” Council Fire Prevention officers have been inspecting properties around the shire to identify any dangerous fuel levels that need to

be cleaned up and issued 277 Fire Prevention Notices (FPNs). Property owners who received FPNs must comply with the notice by the date identified or face fine of more than $1923.10, as set by the State Government. “This date was set for the end of November, so we encourage the community to contact council if properties have not been cut and fire fuels reduced after that time,” Mr Bond said. For further information about fire inspections, please call council on 5593 7100. To learn more on how to prepare your property for the bushfire season, visit www.cfa. vic.gov.au/plan-prepare.

Save our lake: Anglers and other lake users are calling for funds to be made available to implement algae removal technologies. 2023E

Anglers calling for algae busting funding ANGLERS that have enjoyed bountiful fish at Lake Bullen Merri are calling for Minister for Environment, Tourism, Sport and Outdoor Recreation Steve Dimopoulos, to free up funding for algae-busting technologies. The calls come after a severe algal bloom at the lake around four weeks ago, in addition to the current algal bloom. The anglers are being supported by various bodies, including the Victorian Recreational Fishing Peak Body (VRFish) and Victoria Fishing Authority (VFA). VRFish executive officer Ben Scullin said there had been a variety of impacts from the algal blooms at the lake. “The two main effects that would be obvious would be a fish kill; when the algae dies and is eaten by bacteria, it can take a lot of oxygen out of the water, so we get fish kills. There’s been quite a few fish kills in Bullen Merri over time,” he said. “The second one is the amenity; it puts people off using it or going there, so there’s a perception that the water’s no good for fishing. “You don’t get the regional economic expenditure outcomes that you should.” Lake Bullen Merri was a popular trout lake, alongside Lake Purrumbete, attracting many people from all over Australia. But Mr Scullin said he is concerned about what may happen to what many call a “trophy trout lake”. “What we’re concerned about is the intensity of the blooms and the frequency that they’re occurring, and that it will cause a decline in recreational fishing in that lake,” he said. “As the peak recreation fishing body, we’re watching the agencies try and chip away at the issue, but there’s got to be a more concerted effort. “You’re probably not going to solve the issue, but you certainly can manage and mitigate it.” One such mitigation effort was Corangamite Shire Council’s

trial of the EnviroSonic ultrasound algae control technology, which ran from mid-December 2021 to April this year. The devices could control algae in semicircles of up to 300 metres using ultrasound waves to stress algae. “We had Corangamite Shire step up and show leadership with their technology trial, and that’s opened the door to say that’s feasible in terms of it didn’t interrupt fishing, it wasn’t intrusive,” Mr Scullin said. “Council didn’t have to do that; it was a proper leadership position from council to step up and say we’ll take this trial on. “We’re at the next stage where we have to do a pilot study; where you actually have to make the case for investment.” Mr Scullin said it was “all shoulders to the wheel” to try and control the algae in the lake. “We had a situation where the boat ramp was closed due to safety issues, there’s no bins, there’s an algal bloom so bad that fisheries can’t even stock fish, in one of our premier trout lakes,” he said. “If we can pull it all through, then we’ll have a situation where perhaps the algal bloom frequency and intensity will be managed such we’re not going to have the impacts.” One of the anglers fighting to save Lake Bullen Merri is Garry Ridgeway, who has been fishing the lake regularly since 1968. As an avid fisherman, Mr Ridgeway has been involved with many fish releases over the years and has seen many algal blooms at the lake. He said he, and other anglers calling for action, are not going after anyone. “I’ve got to make this point because some people grab hold of things and say they’ve got another agenda,” Mr Ridgeway said. “We’ve got no other agenda; not one other agenda. “We walk down onto our lake and we can’t put our boat in because of the blue-green algae. That’s the reality; it’s a toxic algae.” Mr Ridgeway was concerned Lake Bullen Merri would end up like Deep Lake in Derrinallum and Lake Tooliorook in Lismore, which suffer from year-round algal blooms.

“It’s an ongoing problem; it’s a huge problem to fix, because there are many influences that create our blooms,” he said. “This isn’t just for fisherman; this is for all boat users, yachters, skiers, jet-boat users, swimmers, everybody. Even dog-walkers, who let their dogs walk.” Mr Ridgeway said while he and his fellow anglers were “pushing anyone’s barrow”, they are keen to support the new technology after a seemingly positive trial. “We are suggesting that it can be the answer because it’s new technology; when I say it’s new technology, it’s been used all around Victoria for 10 years now in water management catchment areas, drinking water, to kill algae,” he said. “The people I credit the most for us being able to have a look at this as lake users is the local Corangamite Shire Council. “We do not, under any circumstances, blame the council or anyone else for not continuing on with it because it comes with a price. “They were put in a position to trial it; as soon as the money ran out, where do they go?” Mr Ridgeway said the concerned lake users were calling for ministerial action. “I’m not politically inclined in any shape or form; I’m just a fisherman,” he said. “We need the Minister for Environment, that’s our fishing minister now, to instruct his authorities to act on Bullen Merri and make funds available to solve this problem at Lake Bullen Merri. This is the only way we can do it. “Like anything in the world today, it comes with a price. There is some conjecture with the price. “I have the exact quotes for what it cost, and it is well within the reach of what governments can afford to spend to preserve a lake like Bullen Merri.” A recent meeting has resulted in the decision to call for a grant of around $500,000.

Council raises flag for 16 Days campaign

Little artists on show

AN ORANGE ﬂag was raised to mark the beginning of the Corangamite Shire Council’s involvement in the 16 Days of Activism campaign. The ﬂag was raised on Monday, with members of the community gathering near the Courthouse for the event. The campaign began on November 25, which marked International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and will continue until Human Rights Day on December 10. Mayor Ruth Gstrein asked residents to work together year-round, not just during the campaign, to change the story about violence against women. “Statistics show one in four women have experienced intimate partner violence, so we all know someone who is going through this, and alarmingly on average, one Australian women every 10 days is killed by a man they know,” she said. “I also acknowledge that men can also experience violence at the hands of their partners and we can’t ignore the ongoing physical and mental wellbeing of children who witness this behaviour. “I ask everyone not to look the other way but to call out violent behaviour and create a future Encouraging people to speak: Corangamite Shire Council mayor Ruth Gstrein raised where everybody is safe, equal and respected.” the orange flag to mark 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. 2023D

SAINT Patrick’s School celebrated their biennial Art’s Night last Tuesday, which was reported to be a huge success and well represented by a large turnout of families and community members.

Every child in the school had multiple pieces of artwork on display which they proudly presented to their families and the public. Principal Tim Bourke said there were various styles of art on display, which included painting, printmaking, collage, paper craft, papier mache, dioramas and 3D forms. “The children also drew inspiration from some big named artists such as Picasso, Van Gogh, Matisse and Mondrian and then created their own individual art style,” he said. “The music room was very popular where the music students showcased their musical talents and played various instruments such as keyboard, piano, violin and cello. “The artwork was beautiful and the community coming together in celebration was really beautiful.” Mr Bourke said he was very proud of all of the children and thanked the teachers for their hard work.

A fun night out for the gals

FROCKS, shoes and champagne were the style of the day as Camperdown’s Manifold Street fashion stores recently hosted their second Fashions on Manifold event.

In addition to the sales, shoppers were treated to champagne and nibbles and were able to make time to catch up with their friends for a night on the town. Organiser Kristy Green said it was a good night. “I think the best thing about it is it’s more about the girlfriends getting together and being social, so I think that was a really nice highlight,” she said. “A lot of ladies work now, and they can’t get together with their girlfriends; that’s really the main aim is to be social. “I think they all enjoyed their little social wander-along, and I found, too, that people would wander into a shop and they would run into a friend that they hadn’t seen for ages so then they would get chatting. “That was really nice.” Ms Green said the night was a collaborative eﬀort between the fashion shops of Camperdown, deciding to hold a second event after last year’s success. “Sometimes people think, when there’s small fashion businesses in town, you’re sort of not working together,” she said. “It was just really an idea to let people

know that, as small businesses, we’re all happy to help each other out and work together to try and bring people into town and into our small businesses. “As much as we’ve all got our own businesses, we’re not enemies and we’re not against each other; we’re all trying to work together to make it a nice destination. “We’re all wishing each other to do well, and sometimes when you join together it’s a better force.” Ms Green said the storeowners were all happy with how the day went, with the warm weather also helping to bring people out. “We’ll certainly do it again next year; we got so many customers that thanked us for organizing it because it was a good excuse for them to get together with their girlfriends and come for a wander,” she said. “No doubt we’ll think of something.” Among all the fun and fashion, Ms Green encouraged residents to shop local. “Because local businesses are doing it tough at the minute, it’s just nice to have people come and have a look at what we’ve got before they go elsewhere and shop,” she said. “Just come and have a look at what we’ve got; you never know, there might be something you can ﬁnd before you go out Strike a pose: Fashion businesses across Camperdown encouraged ladies to of town or go online.” catch up with their friends and enjoy the Fashions on Manifold. 2023D

Peace Poster competition winners announced

CAMPERDOWN’S year ﬁve and six school students were given the opportunity to express themselves through a special art contest, with winners recently announced.

The Camperdown Lions Club Peace Poster competition this year saw many grade five and six students from Camperdown College Junior Campus and St. Patrick’s Primary School presenting entries of a high standard. The competition features a different theme each year, this year’s theme being ‘Dare To Dream’. Co-ordinator Marilyn Bourke said choosing the winner from each school proved to be difficult for the judges due to the standard of the entries. “For over three decades Lions Clubs around the world have been sponsoring a very special art contest in schools,” she said. “Creating peace posters gives students everywhere the chance to express their visions of peace and inspire others through art and creativity. “To be eligible, entrants needed to be between 11 and 13 years old as at November 15.

“All entries needed to conform to strict competition rules which include paper size, use of any art medium but excluding 3D, anything attached or glued to the poster and no use of numbers or lettering.” The winner from Camperdown College is Charlie Unwin, with runner-up Isla Spokes, and the St Patrick’s Primary School winner is Halle Barake, with and runner-up’s Sophie McConachy and Steph Fleming. Certificates and vouchers were presented to the students by Lions Club president Andy Riordon. As overall winner, Halle’s poster progressed to the district final at Geelong on the weekend of November 11 and 12, where Charlie’s poster was also on display.

Stallions def NOBTS 2-1, Slugs def Ballbusters 2-1, Bulls drew Poachers 1-1, Stallions drew Poachers 2-2, NOBTS def Ballbusters 3-0 and Bulls def Slugs 3-0. Ladder after November 21: Poachers 50, Stallions 38, Bulls 38, NOBTS 34, Ballbusters 12 and Slugs 12.

About 30 athletes were put through their paces in a skillsbased session which was well supported by a group of enthusiastic parents. Many thanks to those who filled in for the six committee members who were unavailable on the night. With only three weeks left of the pre-Christmas Friday nights and the centre’s Christmas themed night, organisers are hopeful of a return to the track for this week’s session. For all those who place canteen orders, these will be held over to this week. Anyone who has any concerns or alterations around this is asked to contact Kristy.

December. As entries close prior to the return to the track in early February, please be mindful of placing your entries early. Track and field weekend is a great opportunity for athletes to try a new track (synthetic) and to make new friends from other centres. Entry costs will be confirmed by LAVic in the coming weeks. The parent helpers roster will be placed on our social media in the coming days. Sessions run much quicker and easier with support so parents/ guardians please consider placing your names on the roster to help on the night. The committee looks forward to having athletes and families back this Friday at the Camperdown College sports precinct oval from 4.15pm.
