The battle has just begun
OVER the past week communities have rallied in opposition to the state government’s new Emergency Services and Volunteers Fund (ESVF).
This fund, or ‘levy’ as its been more widely termed, has come under fire by thousands across the western district.
Our already suffering farmers, many of which are long-standing and active Country Fire Authority (CFA) volunteers, are doing it tough. Real tough.
This drought is the worst some have seen in many decades.
Feed for stock is getting scarce and expensive.
Farmers are paying tens of thousands of dollars just to keep their stock – and their livelihood – alive.
And with no rain on the immediate horizon, many are also regularly buying truck loads of water.
Others are euthanising stock in the paddock.
They are resilient but they are being worn down.
For some, they are at breaking point.
These farmers are the heart and soul of many communities across the western district.
They not only work the land, but they contribute endless volunteer hours not just to the CFA but to various other community groups, clubs and sporting organisations. They dig deep even when their pockets are shallow.
They would give their last dollar to help a mate in need – and they’d do it with a smile.
Sadly, I fear this ESVF could very well be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.
The state of farming in our district has never before looked so grim.
In many cases, it’s anticipated that our CFA volunteers/farmers will be forced to pay thousands of dollars towards a service that they provide free of charge and have done so for many years.
But our CFA volunteers, who have become the leaders in this campaign against the levy, are not the only ones who will be affected by
this statewide cash grab.
It will affect each and every one of us –some more than others.
It will hit every home owner, every renter, every rural landholder across the state. And for many it will hit hard.
Household budgets are already stretched; this will see the thin line only get thinner.
Landlords will pass the cost onto tenants to recover the hundreds, or even thousands, they will be charged. Rents will rise.
Some properties will even be pulled from the rental market entirely and, as a result, the already-difficult search for rental properties will get even harder.
The previous fire services property levy, which was included in council rates for homeowners and businesses, was capped. It was predictable. It was based on basic property classifications.
This new levy will be based on your property’s CIV (capital improvement value). That takes in your house, your land and

In conceding to Dan Tehan after the recent federal election, Alex Dyson was widely quoted as saying “This campaign has transformed politics in Wannon forever. We forced the incumbent to engage locally.”
Dan Tehan has just been re-elected to serve a sixth term as MP for Wannon.
One of the key reasons for his enduring support over 15 years (an impressive span in politics) is in fact his very deep commitment to listening to and representing the diverse communities across Wannon.
Last year alone, he did more than 100 listening posts.
every structure on it.
In simple terms, the more your property is worth the more you will pay.
Be warned. Talk is, this could result in anywhere up to a 400 per cent increase in your emergency services charge.
This could amount to thousands of dollars many people aren’t prepared for. Nor can they afford.
The timing of this could not have been worse for our district in particular.
Families are struggling with day to day living expenses and farmers are battling drought conditions.
And the added irony of all this?
This week is National Volunteers Week. We should be giving thanks to our volunteers, not slugging them with another levy.
We all pay our taxes. We all work hard. We all deserve to be treated in a fair and equitable manner.
I believe the fight has only just begun.
Jodie Welsh
By contrast, despite substantial financial backing from Climate 200 and the significant loss of support for the Liberal Party nationally, Dyson failed to win the seat . . . for the third time.
Dyson’s claim that his campaign “forced” Tehan to engage locally grossly underestimated Tehan’s genuine connection with his constituents and the relentless hard work that has earned their trust.
The election results speak for themselves.
Tehan’s local engagement isn’t a new strategy; it’s the cornerstone of his enduring political success.

Appeal for chairs reaches $92,111 target
ELEVEN new treatment chairs for cancer patients will soon be headed to Warrnambool thanks to the generosity of the local community.
Just two months ago, South West Healthcare launched its public campaign to raise $92,111 to replace the existing chairs – and late last week the appeal reached its target.
“This is such a wonderful achievement and we’re absolutely thrilled to have raised this amount in such a short time,” South West Healthcare’s manager of community partnerships, Suzan Morey said.
“We are always blown away by the generosity of our local community and again we thank everyone who has contributed towards the cost of these new chairs.”
The fundraising tally reached its target late last week with a donation of $6,059 from the Kiwanis Club of Warrnambool through its ‘Coins for Cancer’ initiative.
“This Kiwanis project began in 2011 when the husband of one of the club’s members was diagnosed with cancer and the 2008-established Peter’s Project Foundation was in the thick of raising $5 million for the community contribution towards the development of the region’s first cancer centre.” Kiwanis club members
distributed Coins for Cancer collection tins throughout Warrnambool and the south west and for almost 14 years member Janice Burns (often with the help of fellow member Ann Boyle) travelled regularly to exchange full cans for empty ones and banked the proceeds.
“Janice’s commitment to this project was outstanding,” Kiwanis’ secretary Diane Riordon said.
“Through Janice, $151,630 was raised for the Peter’s Project Community Support Centre on the ground floor of the South West Regional Cancer Centre.”
This incredible fundraising effort was celebrated last Monday afternoon when the Kiwanis club made its final two ‘Coins for Cancer’ donations.
The first was $6,059 towards the chemotherapy treatment chairs and a further $4,000 was donated to the Peter’s Project Community Support Centre for its everyday functioning.
Director of the Peter’s Project Foundation, Vern Robson, thanked the Kiwanis club members for their efforts over many years.
“This is a wonderful effort by this community group and I’m sure all patients who use the new chairs during treatment will appreciate the extra comfort,” Mr Robson said.
“We are fortunate to have such a wonderful facility here in Warrnambool, and such wonderful, dedicated staff.”

Stage lights await students
THE cast and crew of the 2025 Emmanuel College production of Cinderella are preparing to take to the stage early next month.
Rehearsals are now in full swing, with more than 50 talented students from years 7 to 12 involved in the fairytale remake of ‘Cinderella’ which follows the beloved storyline (with some comical twists).
Head of performing arts and instrumental music at Emmanuel College, Megan Davies, said it had been a pleasure to work with such a talented, kind and caring cohort of Emmanuel College students.
The students ranged from those enjoying their first time on stage, through to experienced performers.
“The students and production team have worked tirelessly for several months to bring this wonderful tale to life,” Ms Davies said.
“It’s a beautiful storyline for this age group to be performing as it encourages us to never apologise for being ourselves.
“We are very proud of all students playing a role in this year’s production and are overwhelmed with the interest and talent these students are showing in the performing arts area.”
Interest was so high that this year’s production has two casts, with seven of the main roles double cast for the four performances.
“It’s a great problem to have that we had so many students keen for lead roles, so we decided to double cast the seven main characters, which has delivered us with two wonderful casts for the performances,” Ms Davies said.
“Cast lists can be found when booking tickets to the shows, which will ensure you can follow your favourite actors in the corresponding shows.”
Tickets can be purchased via the Emmanuel College website and following the link to Cinderella at www. emmanuel.vic.edu.au
Everyone is invited to witness the magic of ‘Cinderella the Musical’ at one of four shows scheduled for Thursday, June 5 at 7.30pm; Friday, June 6 at 7.30pm and Saturday, June 7 from 12 noon and 7.30pm.
All shows will be performed in the Wyton Theatre at Emmanuel College, via the Ardlie Street entrance.

Communities unite
IN a massive show of solidarity on Tuesday, CFA volunteers, farmers and concerned locals took to the streets in opposition to the recently approved Emergency Services and Volunteers Fund (ESVF).
A convoy of more than 45 vehicles, including CFA tankers and SPVs (special purpose vehicles), tractors and cars wound its way from Bushfield to the Warrnambool showgrounds on Tuesday morning.
By noon the oval was a sea of red and yellow, as hundreds gathered in unity to express their anger and frustration over the new ‘tax’ which has been widely slammed by farmers, CFA volunteers, residents and politicans.
While others joined a massive rally on the steps of Parliament House in Melbourne, the peaceful Warrnambool rally was organised by the Merri Group to allow those who couldn’t make the journey to the city, an opportunity to be “seen and heard.”
“Not everyone is able to take a day off work, a day off the farm, to go to Melbourne so this (the Warrnambool event) and one similar in Camperdown, gave everyone the chance to stand up and be counted,” Grassmere CFA captain John Houston said.
“This also showed those rallying in Melbourne that we are with them, we support them.
“This new ESVF is a tax that no-one wants, deserves or needs especially across farming communities who are doing it so tough at the moment.
“Out here we’re in the middle of a drought but it’s not just farmers who will hurt it’s everyone; it will have a huge flow-on effect for all households, for businesses, for everyone.
“It’s unfair, it’s unjust and it shows blatant disregard for volunteers (many of which will be paying thousands of dollars for a service they voluntarily provide) and the community as a whole.”
As news spread that the proposed ESVF had been approved by the government early last Thursday morning, several CFA brigades went off-line shortly afterwards.
CFA uniforms were seen strewn over road signs at several town entrances across the district, while many brigades held meetings to discuss a course of action.
Warrnambool City mayor Cr Ben Blain, also a volunteer firefighter, added his frustrations and concerns, labelling the ESVF as unfair and unjust.
Speaking at Tuesday morning’s rally, Cr Blain said he was outraged with the state government decision, saying it placed an “unreasonable tax burden” on regional Victorians.
In applying this tax, he said, the state government was turning councils into tax collection agencies and hurting regional Victorians.
“When CFA volunteers hang up their uniforms and say enough is enough, you know there’s a problem.
“Regional people volunteer in regional fire services and carry out their own fundraising.
“The new tax is cost-shifting, it’s unreasonable and there has to be a fairer way of funding a service that is as essential as any other emergency service.”
Cr Blain added that some of the bills that primary producers would receive for this revised version of the fire services levy would be astronomical.
“Added to the burden of battling drought conditions, this will impose considerable hardship on many farmers,” he said.
“It will rip a further $60 million from the 10 regional Victorian cities alone, with the 2025-2026 cost to residents of the fund projected to be almost $176 million, a 50 per cent increase on the $116.5 million paid in 20242025.”
He said the impact on rural and regional shires was even more devastating.
“Over recent decades we have seen councils asked to contribute more to services that used to be entirely or
mostly funded by the state government,” he said.
“This included libraries, school crossings, maternal and child health services, kindergarten infrastructure, waste services and environmental protection.
“The response by CFA volunteers sends a message that the state government has over-reached when it comes to cost-shifting.”
Figures released by Warrnambool City Council show the previous (2024/25) FSL amounted to $4,728,236 while the new ESVF would be $6,836,557 (a $2.1 million increase, or 44.59 per cent).
Also addressing the large crowd in Warrnambool this week, Tower Hill fruit and vegetable farmer Ben Pohlner said he too wore many hats and was a proud member of this rural community.
“I’m a farmer, a parent, a husband and today I stand here representing the concerned farmers of this region,” he said.
“I stand here angry, frustrated but most all determined. This new tax, to be rolled out on July 1, is not only unfair it’s insulting.
“Is it fair that a small farmer with 500 acres pays five times more than a city homeowner with better access to services? Is it fair to hit us with this levy while half of regional Victoria is in drought? While we’re hand-feeding livestock and watching crops wither?
Mr Pohlner said the community was not asking for special treatment, just common sense and respect.
“This is a cash grab dressed up as a reform,” he said.
“The state government couldn’t balance its books and now its forcing farmers to pay. We battle drought, rising costs, crumbling roads and long days just to put food on tables across this country.”
Mr Pohlner called on the Premier and every politician in Spring Street to “come out here and stand where we stand; feel the dry earth under your boots and look a farmer in the eye and tell them they deserve to pay more.”
Farmers Jo Tyres (Naringal) and Doug Richies (Warrnambool) were eager to spread their message.
against levy
“Some of us are already feeding stock out of borrowed money, trucking in hay that costs more than we can possibly afford, we’re sinking in debt; we’ve watched fields wilt, pastures crack, water tanks dry up and we’re losing sleep, security, health and for some, even hope.”
Mr Pohlner added that for some farmers he had spoken to, the new levy would be more than their entire yearly profit.
“This levy may have been designed in a Melbourne office but it’s going to be fought in the paddocks, in the town halls by people like us because if there’s one thing farmers know, it’s how to weather a storm.
“We will keep signing petitions, calling MPs and speaking up until they listen. And together, we will be heard.”
Recently re-elected Member for Wannon, Dan Tehan, added his support to the campaign, saying the state government “must axe its unfair emergency services levy which threatens to devastate regional Victoria.”
He joined thousands of Wannon farmers, property owners, CFA volunteers and local council members in Melbourne on Tuesday to protest the move.
“This Labor Government has spent taxpayers’ money like it grows on trees, and now they’re coming after our money to try to plug their budget blackhole,” Mr Tehan said.
“This unfair levy will hurt everyone in the community; farmers will be forced off the farms they have worked for generations, local businesses will suffer from higher taxes and less money in the local economy, and the mental health impact will cascade through families.
“Labor doesn’t understand regional Australia. They are increasing taxes on the community volunteers who risk their lives to help others during an emergency. How is that going to improve emergency services?”
He said people in southwest Victoria look at the billions of dollars the state government has spent on new tunnels,
AXE THE TAX
new train stations and level crossing removals while they are hit with another new tax.
“While the South Australian Government recently provided a $73 million support package for its droughtaffected farmers, the Victorian Labor Government is increasing costs for those already struggling.”
Member for Western Victorian, Labor’s Jacinta Ermacora, has come under fire this week following her decision to vote in favour of the controversial new levy in what she claims was “ensuring party solidarity.”
“I am a farm girl, I’m well aware of the tough times farmers across the district are currently facing and, as such, I’ve been busting my guts over the last few months to ensure some changes were made to the proposed ESVF before it was approved,” she said.
“Some of those changes included ensuring accountability for the fund and how it would be spent. I’m happy with the changes that were made and I will continue to advocate for farmers in our region.”
In a statement issued on Tuesday afternoon, Ms Ermacora thanked the farmers and CFA volunteers who had met with her and provided information on how the changes would affect them.
“I have been advocating on this issue into government and am pleased that a number of changes were achieved before it was passed,” she said.
“The government has reduced the variable rate for Primary Production Land from 83c/$1,000 Capital Improved Value (CIV) to 71.8c/$1,000 CIV.”
She also noted that farmers eligible for the infrastructure grants program in the government’s drought support package would also receive a partial rebate.
“And to ensure accountability for the money in the fund, the government will report annually how much money has been collected by the ESVF and how that money will be spent,” she said.
“I also thank councils in the southwest and western Victoria, along with the VFF, UDV and Grain Growers Australia who I have also met with about the levy and the drought.
“I will continue to advocate for our farmers.”
While many people are now questioning exactly where the money raised through the new ESVF will be directed, Ms Ermacora believes the money will give emergency services the funding and equipment they need.
“Every single dollar raised by this new fund will support our emergency services, including our amazing SES volunteers,” she said in her statement.
“I have visited Warrnambool, Hamilton and Port Fairy SES and heard first-hand about the increased callouts they are experiencing from more frequent, and more destructive natural disasters.
“These will only increase and the need for these services will continue to grow. We cannot afford to leave our emergency services to shoulder the burden of that demand.”
“The government has guaranteed in the legislation that 95 per cent of VICSES and CFA funding will come from ESVF, and 90 per cent of FRV’s annual funding.
“This money will go towards vital life-saving equipment, vehicles, staff, training for volunteers, community education and recovery support.”
According to Ms Ermacora, this will include $62 million to double the Volunteer Emergency Services Equipment Program for critical equipment, vehicles and facility upgrades; $70 million to establish a rolling fleet replacement program for VICSES and the CFA and a further $30 million to deliver training and support programs for emergency services volunteers.
“Our emergency services volunteers give so much so eligible CFA and VICSES volunteers and life members will receive a rebate on their principal place of residence or farm,” she said.

Communities unite
against levy AXE THE TAX
Mayors show united front
SOUTH west Victorian councils have shown a united front to plea for the “unfair and inequitable” Emergency Services and Volunteers Fund (ESVF) to be scrapped.
Mayors from six western Victoria councils gathered at the Mortlake Country Fire Authority (CFA) station on Wednesday afternoon to stand against the state government’s new tax, which councils will be forced to collect.
The levy will see an additional $5.8 million in new tax dollars collected from Moyne Shire and $2.1 million from Warrnambool City.
Among the mayors in attendance were Cr Ben Blain (Warrnambool), Cr Karen Foster (Moyne), Cr Kate Makin (Corangamite Shire), Cr Jason Schram (Colac Otway), Cr Tanya Kehoe (Pyrenees Shire) and Cr Jo Armstrong (Ararat Rural City).
Two others, Southern Grampians Shire mayor Dennis Heslin and Glenelg Shire mayor Karen Stephens, were unable to attend but gave their full support to the campaign.
Western Victoria MP Bev McArthur also joined the councillors.
The councillors jointly called for the ESVF to be scrapped or at least reassessed, for communities to be assured the funding would be spend in the communities it was raised, and to shift levy collection responsibilities back to the State Government.
Cr Blain said emergency services were already underfunded in the south west, and feared the scope of the funding under the new levy would mean funds collected would not flow back to local volunteers.
“I’ve been a CFA volunteer for almost 20 years and it’s interesting – if you look at what happened with the Grampians bushfire, everyone was driving around in 30 to 40-year-old trucks,” he said.
“We want to see money flowing back in to the region.
“The funding is supposed to go back to volunteers to make sure they can protect their communities with the equipment they actually need.”
Moyne Shire Council mayor Cr Karen Foster said she was frustrated to be left with so many unanswered questions, acknowledging there was reason to believe the region would even see funding equivalent to what was lost in tax.
“We don’t know how it’s going to work, and all we can

see is a big chunk of money being ripped out of our region, taken back to Spring Street and then we don’t know what happens after that,” she said.
“I think it’s really disrespectful to the people who give so much of their time, of themselves, to protect us.”
Cr Foster said she felt it was important to show communities in each local government area that their councillors had no intention of backing down quietly.
“The question we’re asking is if there’s any chance we can even repeal this – and to that I would say there always has to be hope,” she said.
“All of the mayors are standing shoulder-to-shoulder to show our communities we’re not going to give up, and we’ll keep fighting to the last breath.”
Moyne Shire Council will be among the hardest hit under the ESVF, facing a 117 per cent increase from the previous
Fire Services Levy, with those owning agricultural land to be among the hardest hit.
Mrs McArthur said she had never seen “a coalition of agreement like this” occur in opposition to the tax.
“I will stand with every local government municipality who will bear the brunt of this totally unfair new tax,” she said.
“It’s a new property tax, not a levy, and not to fund emergency services, but to fund every other extraneous factor with no guarantee the money comes back to these communities.
“The Coalition has pledged to repeal this tax and will revert back to the previous Fire Services Levy as it was.
“Local government should not be the debt collectors for the state, and this puts them at the frontline for the distress this tax will bring.”
Final touches to come at East Beach
STAGE two redevelopment works at Port Fairy’s East Beach are nearing completion.
The East Beach area is a popular destination for local residents and visitors, particularly given its proximity to the nearby Gardens Caravan Park.
Visitors to the area would have noticed the recent completion of the toilet block, and adjacent vegetation, with some final touches to soon be added.
“Moyne Shire will soon complete the final touches to the current stage one works at East Beach Port Fairy,” mayor Cr Karen Foster said.
“This will include the installation of an additional double sun lounger, road and parking line marking, and landscaping.
“We anticipate these works will be completed by the end of this month, with an official opening planned for June.”
According to Cr Foster, council has contributed $675,000 to the project along with an additional $1.27 million from the state government for these stage one works.
The new East Beach precinct will only serve to improve the popularity of Port Fairy and in particular the East Beach area.
This will be most apparent in the summer months but visitation is expected all year round, especially with whales now being spotted directly off East Beach during the winter months.
From an environmental perspective, the landscaping of the area will consider sustainable products and utilise natural timbers and stone.
The amenities will be fit with water saving devices and grasses will be low maintenance and drought resistant.

Cash boost for Allansford footpaths
PEDESTRIAN movement in Allansford has taken a step forward thanks to a $50,000 grant from the state government.
Warrnambool mayor Cr Ben Blain said the funds would contribute to the cost of a footpath to the Schrader Park Playground and another section of footpath along Frank Street to Allansford Primary School. He welcomed the recent announcement by Minister for Regional Development Jaclyn Symes.
“This funding is particularly timely given that during the consultation for the Council Plan earlier this year a number of residents urged council to build or improve footpaths in Allansford,” Cr Blain said.
“This funding will see about 300 metres of footpath added to Allansford in a high priority area.
“We thank the state government for the funding support.”
It’s anticipated the footpath will be constructed in the 2025-2026 financial year.
The funding for Allansford was one of 159 successful projects worth over $5.1 million in round two of the Tiny Towns Fund, which is for rural and regional towns of fewer than 5,000 people. From walking track upgrades to community centre renovations, grants of between $5,000 and $50,000 will help regional communities flourish, boost tourism and support local workers during project development.
Almost 350 projects are being supported through both rounds of the Tiny Towns Fund across more than 300 towns.
“The Tiny Towns Fund is all about investing in projects that locals are passionate about,” Ms Symes said.
“From community halls and sporting facilities to new walking tracks and strengthening the regional art scene, we’re supporting our smallest towns to become even better places to live, work, stay and play.”
Top result for Warrnambool paramedics
FROM January through to March, Warrnambool paramedics attended 85.6 per cent of Code 1 patients within 15 minutes - the best results in the state.
According to figures released by Ambulance Victoria earlier this month, paramedics in the Warrnambool LGA exceeded their performance target.
As a result, paramedics are now arriving 49 seconds faster than three months ago.
In the Moyne LGA, paramedics attended 37.2 per cent of Code 1 patients within 15 minutes, up from 33.2 per cent the three months prior – decreasing response times by one minute and 10 seconds.
Paramedics and first responders across Victoria are responding to the most critical Code 1 emergencies on average 17 seconds faster than three months ago.
Ambulance Victoria (AV) executive director of regional operations, Danielle North, said demand on ambulance crews had fallen by 4.5 per cent between January and March compared with the last three months of 2024.
“Despite the drop this quarter, we have seen a 31.8 per cent increase in Code 1 cases since the COVID-19 pandemic began more than five years ago,” Ms North said.
“After three quarters in a row close to or above 100,000 Code 1 cases, the first quarter of 2025 brought some welcome relief for our crews who were called to 95,321 Code 1 emergencies.
“The work our paramedics, doctors, nurses, first responders and support staff do every day in helping people in their time of greatest need is outstanding.
“It is through them that we continue to lead the way in patient care, including one of the best cardiac arrest survival rates in the world.”
From January to March, AV crews across Victoria responded to 65.6 per cent of Code 1 cases within the state-wide target of 15 minutes, up from 64.9 per cent the previous quarter.
The state-wide average response time to Code 1 emergencies was 15 minutes and 25 seconds; an improvement from 15 minutes and 42 seconds the three months prior.
Barwon South West regional director Jerome Peyton acknowledged there was still more work to do.
“We continue to work with our partners to ensure our paramedics and first responders are dispatched to the right patient at the right time,” Mr Peyton said.
“We welcome the new Standards for Safe and Timely Ambulance and Emergency Care for Victorians which seeks to improve system-wide patient flow so that patients can be transferred to hospital in a timely way, and paramedics are back on the road and responding to the community.”
Since last November, Ambulance Victoria has welcomed 119 new paramedics statewide including graduate paramedics and qualified paramedics from New South Wales, Queensland, the Northern Territory and New Zealand.
“Meanwhile, our largest single intake of 30 mobile intensive care ambulance (MICA) intern paramedics hit the road earlier this year, providing a significant boost to critical care across Victoria.
“We are also rolling out new digital radios across regional Victoria and iPads to all our crews, making it easier and faster to complete electronic patient care records and get back on the road quicker.”
Mr Peyton also acknowledged the work of the secondary triage team of nurses and paramedics who were “making a real difference” by connecting patients with the care they needed while helping free up crews for patients in time-critical emergencies.
“From January to March, 43,858 people who didn’t need an emergency ambulance were instead connected to more appropriate care by paramedics and nurses in secondary triage,” Mr Peyton said.
Mr Peyton encouraged everyone to do their part to ensure AV’s highly skilled paramedics were available for patients most in need.
“There are many options people can access when they need timely medical care and health advice but don’t need an emergency ambulance, including the Victorian Virtual Emergency Department and urgent care centres,” he said.
“We know demand on our hard-working paramedics

Community collaboration and innovation
ST Patrick’s Primary School in Port Fairy is committed to working collaboratively with organisations and agencies to benefit the local community.
Deep collaboration is one of the priorities within the Diocese Of Ballarat Catholic Education Limited’s (DOBCEL) strategic plan for all Catholic Schools from 2025-2035.
Catholic Education Week will be celebrated across the diocese from May 26-30.
In partnership with Moyne Shire and led by Crazy Ideas College, St Patrick’s is once again participating
in the Moyne Social Innovators program for the third year.
Social Innovators (SI) has enabled student in Year 6 from St Patrick’s Parish Primary to participate in the program in 2025, with a strong focus on innovative ideas being brought to life in the local community.
The SI program equips young people with the skills and confidence to invent services, programs and products that enrich the lives of their fellow citizens.
The Year 6 students came together on May 14-15 at Southcombe Lodge in Port Fairy to complete the program.
Leading the way as a sustainable school
For the third consecutive year we have been recognised by ResourceSmart for Excellence in Sustainability
Across the two days, the young people worked with the Crazy Ideas team to produce new insights around issues they care about, generate crazy good ideas, prototype how these ideas can work in the community, and present compelling pitches that inspire action to a panel of community partners.
The students will work in teams on their projects for the remainder of term two and will present them to a panel of local community and business partners.
“We can’t wait to see the creative projects produced by our students and witness how they aim to tackle big challenges in new and radical ways,” school principal Olga Lyons said.
Teacher Benson Steere has been nominated for the ‘Teacher of the Year’ award
Projects have included beach monitoring, water conservation (in collaboration with Wannon Water) and making pencil cases from disposed fashion to send to students at the Bandari School in Tanzania

Volunteers at cafe ‘fi x it’ again
VOLUNTEERS at the Port Fairy Repair Café have once again fixed, mended and repaired several items for the community.
The café, which opened its doors to the public last Saturday morning, was alive with volunteers eager to help those who needed a hand with a wide variety of common household items.
From its ‘home’ at the Port Fairy Community House, the cafe volunteers welcomed a steady stream of visitors throughout the morning who were eager to take along items in need of repair.
In addition to the usual team of volunteer fixers who were ready to tackle everything from bikes to blenders, this month also featured a special opportunity for knitting and crochet enthusiasts.
Local crafter Hera Gibbs offered her time and talents to help community members with all kinds of yarnrelated challenges.
With over 65 years of experience in knitting and crochet, Hera is well-versed in everything from basic repairs to complex patterns.
“People often start a project with great enthusiasm but hit a wall,” Hera said.
“Maybe the pattern is confusing, or they’ve made a mistake they’re not sure how to fix.
“Sometimes it’s an older item with sentimental value, like a hand-knitted toy or a blanket, and it just needs a bit of care to bring it back to life. I love helping people find a way forward.”
Beyond wool and yarn, the Repair Café also remained true to its core mission – to reduce waste, share skills and build connections within the community.
The repair café provides a welcoming space where locals can not only get things fixed for free (donations are appreciated), but also learn from the repair process and meet others who care about sustainability and resourcefulness.
Breanna wins Aria
TALENTED vocalist Breanna Stuart has taken out the top prize at last weekend’s annual City of Warrnambool Aria competition.
Held last Saturday and Sunday at the Christ Church, the competition once again attracted a high level of entries, with Sidra Nissen also performing remarkably well to take home the encouragement award.
The Chris Hayes Memorial Award (for the most outstanding first year participant) was presented to Alcide Kerridge-Flaim, who moved to Melbourne from Queensland to further her studies in music and maths.
Congratulations also to the six finals, who were chosen from heats to sing in the final – Breanna Stuart, Hartley Trusler, Mei Wah Chan, Sidra Nissen, Kate Pengelly and Lily Flynn.
Adjudicator for the event was Liane Keegan, accompanist Phillipa Safey and convenor Jennifer King.
A RABBIT control program will expand into Lake Pertobe after successfully reducing rabbit numbers in council’s holiday parks earlier this year.
As part of a pilot program, professional shooters successfully removed more than 670 rabbits and two foxes over five nights in February and March.
The same method will now be used in Lake Pertobe in May.
Warrnambool mayor Cr Ben Blain said that shooting had proved to be a highly successful method of quickly reducing rabbit numbers.
“Rabbits are a problem across Australia, and seasonal conditions over the past year have seen their numbers in Warrnambool increase sharply,” he said.
“At our holiday parks, 317 of the rabbits removed were female, which prevented between 6,300 and 15,000 new rabbits being born in the next year alone.
Batteries and e-waste cannot be disposed in any of your household bins.
When crushed in rubbish trucks, batteries can start fires.
Many supermarkets have locations where you can drop them off for free.
Rabbit control trial extended to Lake Pertobe
“So there’s the potential to have a significant impact.
“This is still a pilot program, however if the Lake Pertobe operation can be as successful as it was at the holiday parks, this is something we will look at continuing in the future, complementing our existing baiting programs.”
Cr Blain said the contractors were highly trained, would not cause a disturbance to nearby residents and would follow strict safety procedures.
“We will also install signs in Lake Pertobe letting people know about the program,” Cr Blain said.
“It’s very unlikely, but we want to reassure anyone who may happen to see the contractors at work to know that they are undertaking an authorised pest control program.”
Rabbits were first released into the wild in Australia in 1859 near Winchelsea.
The estimated rabbit population in Australia is 200 million.
You can also drop off household batteries for free at the Civic Centre, 25 Liebig Street.
If it has an electrical cable, or takes batteries, it’s e-waste.
It needs to be taken to a waste transfer station, or to are-able at 11 Albert St.
You can find out more about recycling on our website: www.warrnambool.vic.gov.au
When we all sort our recycling correctly, more can be made from our valuable resources. A small act makes a big impact.

Storytime a hit with students
ALL eyes were on the TV screens in classrooms across the district earlier this week.
Wednesday’s state-wide ‘simultaneous storytime’ session proved a big hit with many school children, including those at Warrnambool East Primary School who were excited to be listening to The Truck Cat by authors Deborah Frenkel and Danny Snell.
“The children were all happy to sit and watch The Truck Cat being read to them on the TV,” year two class teacher, Bec Etherton said.
“The purpose of the session is to encourage people to read more, to listen to stories and for parents (and others) to read to children.
“This annual event is something we all look forward to and enjoy.”

Tiger Moth draws attention
ALL eyes were on the skies around Warrnambool last weekend when a Tiger Moth flew in for a special ‘Wheels and Wings’ day.
More than 200 visitors took the opportunity to enjoy a close up look at the Tiger Moth, along with a 1943 Boeing Stearman, and an intriguing selection of classic cars.
“The day exceeded our expectations, certainly in terms of visitor numbers,” secretary of the Warrnambool Aero Club Janek Krause said.
“It was one of our most successful events to date.
“The Kruzin Classics Warrnambool Car Club brought out a dozen or so vehicles and Tiger Moth joy flights, provided by Cressy Aerodrome, attracted a lot of interest and pretty much ran non-stop all day.”
There was numerous aircraft on display, including a 1943 Boeing Stearman biplane.

LOVING WORDS
Warrnibald celebrates creativity and talent
THE recent Warrnibald Portrait and Art Event proved a celebration of the local arts community.
Once again the event, presented by Warrnambool and District Community Hospice, was a resounding success – bringing together the local arts community and people from all walks of life to celebrate creativity, community and the contribution from remarkable individuals.
Held in the Matilda Room at the Warrnambool Race Course, the event was opened with a vibrant launch night that set the tone for a week filled with inspiration, talent, and connection.
The opening night was particularly special, drawing together artists, art lovers, volunteers, and community members from across Warrnambool.
The atmosphere was warm and inclusive, and attendees were treated to a showcase of portraiture, with works honouring local heroes who have given generously to the community.
This included the work of philanthropists and volunteers from throughout the region.
The portrait section saw outstanding entries, with prizes awarded as follows:
First: Harley Manifold for his evocative portrait of Helen Bunyon
Second: Claire Chatfield’s portrait of Cobden’s Miniature Railway’s Bob Wason.
Highly Commended: Irene Crusca for her portrayal of Terang volunteer, Eve Black.
The Warrnibald Inclusive Art Prize: Ricky Taylor for his portrait of ‘Deon.’ People’s Choice – Debbie Banks with her subject, Carolyn Monaghan.
In the Hospice Art Event, the winners were equally impressive:
First: Linda Blackburn - Walk on the Wild Side, Port Fairy.
Second: Georgina Sambell - On Reflection.
Highly Commended: Suesanne HopeDay at the Races.
Hospice Art Event Inclusive Prize: Delmarie Purchase - Marching Band.
People’s Choice: Rod Cameron –Whale Rocks.
The art exhibition, which opened on Friday night and ran through to Wednesday, enjoyed a stream of visitors each day.
Attendees consistently praised the organisers for delivering such a highquality and engaging event.
In addition to the art exhibition, the week featured a range of workshops, artist talks and live music, all of which added richness to the experience.
The grand finale of the week, the Hospice Benefit Dinner and Auction, was held on Saturday night.
The fun night was highlighted by artist Daniel Butterworth painting a live portrait.
The event was a successful fundraiser for the Warrnambool and District Hospice to help facilitate the choice to die in the comfort of home with the aid of a caring and compassionate community.
The event offered a range of days to celebrate the diversity of Warrnambool, with dedicated days focused on events for the all-abilities community, Indigenous art, and to honour our invaluable local volunteers.
The Warrnambool Portrait and Art Event, with the help of the many wonderful people and businesses who supported us, not only showcased local artistic talent but also celebrated the spirit of the community.

MORTLAKE
MONDAY, MAY 19, 2025
DETAILED SALEYARD REPORT
Numbers were back at Mortlake this week yarding 3173 head 222 fewer than last week.
Whilst there were more grainfed cattle on offer with some lines of out of conditioned well-bred cattle, overall it was mixed and plainer with a larger offering of crossbreds types.
Dairy bred cows outnumbered the beef cows where numbers were dominated by lighter weight cows.
The lead of the beef cows lacked the quality of the previous week for the slightly restricted field of processor and feeder buyers on the rail competing on 155 bullocks along with 789 trade weights 2170 cows and 50 grown bulls.
Again due to quality and interest the market was softer by 20 to 30c/kg for the general run of the offering with the exception being the very top end of the offering to be firm to dearer by 10 to 15c/kg.
Demand was still evident for well bred lightweight steers and heifers.

16,200 (-
16200 sheep and lambs were on offer at Hamilton today with 8000 lambs (back4000) and 8200 sheep (additional 1200) penned.
It was a more mixed yarding of lambs but the better presented lambs were supplementary fed.
The lead lambs displayed better finish and were ideal trade weights covering about 30% of the offering.
Lesser heavier weights were on offer to most of the usual panel of buyers on the rail.
Again the tail of younger lighter weights was evident as the seasonal conditions have taken effect.
It was a solid market throughout with most of the lambs dearer by $10 to $20/head with lamb to the trade realizing 880 to 980c/ kg cwt.
One pen of extra heavy lambs topped the market at $315/head.
Grown heifers were dearer by 10 to 20c/kg. Heavy beef cows opened firm to become 10c softer in a very erratic market for the medium and lightweights including dairy breeds that bounced around to be firm and 10 to 15c back in places. PTIC’s back to the paddock mostly firm.
Lighter dairy types were difficult to clear in places.
Bullocks sold to 360c with Manufacturing steers selling to 272c and crossbred steers to 285c/kg.
Grown steers sold to 380c and grown heifers from 348 to 362c/kg.
The better end of the trade cattle sold from 365 to 410c/kg. Heavy beef cows making from 255 to 298c with the medium and light weights from 220 to 245c/kg.

NORTH Warrnambool Eagles now sit undefeated at the top of the Hampden League ladder –and a game clear of reigning premiers, South Warrnambool.
The Eagles continue to soar in season 2025, last weekend taking a 42-point win over bottom side, the Cobden Bombers.
But it wasn’t all smooth sailing for the top side, with the Bombers making an early impression to get within two points at the end of the opening term.
The second quarter saw the Eagles up the pressure all over the ground and convert well in front of goals to head into the main break with a handy 21-point lead.
The second half went all the visitors’ way, adding six majors to the scoreboard while inaccuracy in front of goals cost the Bombers, who kicked 2.9 for the half.
Final scores were North Warrnambool 11.10.76 to Cobden 4.10.34.
Best for the Eagles were Baillie Keast, Zac Everall, Matthew Wines, Reece Scoble, Harley Cobb and Luke Wines.
Everall slotted three majors for the day while team-mates
Thomas Batten and Luke Wines added two each.
Other round six Hampden League winners were Warrnambool, South Warrnambool, Koroit and Terang Mortlake.
The league will this weekend hold ‘Indigenous Round’.
Hamilton will host South Warrnambool, North and Koroit will face off at Bushfield, Warrnambool will host Cobden, Portland will make the road trip to Camperdown while Port Fairy and the Bloods will meet at Gardens Oval.
Eagles continue to soar Tigers undefeated
AFTER six rounds, Merrivale remains the only side undefeated in the Warrnambool and District football competition.
The Tigers now sit a game clear of their nearest rivals, Allansford, after an impressive 57-point victory over Russells Creek under lights last weekend.
The Tigers settled early on their home ground on Saturday night, kicking 3.2 while keeping the visitors to just two behinds in the opening term.
Their lead extended to 28 points by the main break before the Tigers really put their foot down in the third term, keeping Russells Creek scoreless while piling on another three majors.
Final scores were Merrivale 10.12.72 to Russells Creek 2.3.15.
Dylan Weir booted three goals for the home side and was well supported by Josh Britton with two.
Among the best for the victors were Sam Gleeson, Jack Johnstone, Wilson Lenehan, Sean Barnes, Jye Wilson and Josh Britton.
For the visitors, Griffen McLeod, Jyah Chatfield, Caleb Templeton, Phillip Chatfield, Seamus Brady and Patrick Brady were in the best.
Other round six winners were Timboon, Panmure, Nirranda and Old Collegians.
Round seven this weekend will see Allansford host Merrivale, South Rovers at home to Old Collegians, Russells Creek will face Dennington at Mack Oval, Nirranda will travel to Timboon and Panmure will host Kolora Noorat.
Umpires to wear Indigenous top
THE Warrnambool and District Football Umpires Association (WDFUA) is proud to announce the launch of its Indigenous top, to be worn for Hampden League’s round seven matches this weekend.
“Thanks to the generous support of the Warrnambool City Council’s Community Development Fund, we were able to engage local Indigenous artist Tinika Clifford to design this special piece,” WDFUA president Andrew Lougheed said.
“Through collaboration with our members and Tinika’s incredible talent, two complementary artworks were created: Brother and Sister.”
According to Mr Lougheed, the Sister piece, developed first, is a visual exhibit that is symbolic to the regions where we all explore.
It depicts communities and locations which are all situated within Maar Nation.
“The works incorporate and highlight the historical line of our previous generations of umpires, and the many colours that have been displayed throughout the years,” Mr Lougheed said.
“These key elements have been intricately and vibrantly represented throughout.
“While stunning, it was soon recognised that its complexity would not translate clearly to an umpire uniform. From this, the Brother piece was created - designed specifically to meet the requirements of a wearable top while preserving the meaning and artistic integrity of the original concept.”
Viewed from above, the Brother design reflects the unique volcanic landscape of our region and symbolises the strong sense of community within the umpires’ association, with individuals represented as gathering together.
“Both artworks honour our past while looking to the future, aligning with our strategic goals of increasing participation in umpiring and fostering a safe, inclusive culture for all.
“We are incredibly proud of this initiative and grateful to everyone who made it possible. It represents more than just a uniform – it’s a celebration of culture, community, and the spirit of umpiring.”

No rubbers for Attunga
ATTUNGA won games but couldn’t get the important rubbers in the latest round of Orford and District table tennis.
With Orford receiving a forfeit, they have jumped to second place on the ladder while Koroit has slipped out of the top four.
The highlight match of the coming week will be between Orford and Koroit, which may depend on the rubber between Koroit’s Fergus Monsborough and Orford’s Russel Hussey.
Other week four matches will see Myndarra face Warrnambool Vikings, Tarrone will place Warrnambool Warriors and Glengleeson will face Attunga.
The longest rubber of the night was between Ally Rowbottom and Chad Ryan which saw Chad take the win 11/0, 6/11, 11/5, 8/11 and 11/5.
Warrnambool Warriors defeated Myndarra 6.19/5.17.
Myndarra’s Aaron Rowbottom won his three rubbers and was only pushed to the fourth game in his rubber against Warrior Peter Owen 9/11, 11/9, 11/7 and 11/6 – it
was one of the four rubbers extended to the fourth game on the night.
Both teams won a doubles rubber, while Neil Ford and Peter Own won two rubbers each for the Warriors – Ally Rowbottom was Myndarra’s other winner.
Orford received a forfeit from Tarrone.
Attunga lost to Koroit 5.21.348/6.19.350.
Koroit’s Ray Young won the last rubber of the night when the scores were five all against Gus Looney (Attunga).
With five extended rubbers as well as extended game scores contributing to the score line result.
Fergus Monsborough (Koroit) won his three rubbers, two of them in five games.
He defeated Kelly Wortley 11/6, 2/11, 11/4, 12/14 and 11/5.
In the rubber against Val Wortley he won 12/14, 11/3, 11/6, 11/13 and 11/5 – he also anchored their winning doubles rubber.
Both Val and Kelly Wortley won two rubbers each for Attunga.
and racquetball enthusiasts were treated to some highly skilled junior games last weekend.
Organised by Warrnambool City Council in conjunction with Squash & Racquetball Victoria, the tournament attracted 29 young players from Melbourne, regional Victoria and South Australia.
This event included a training session of Victoria’s Junior Performance Program coaching with state team coaches Cassie Thomas and Amelia Martin early Saturday afternoon before the competition started later in the day.
The competition was a Silver level event which allows juniors to accumulate points towards their Australian junior ranking (as well as possible state team selection).
Squash & Racquetball Victoria general manager Dennis Makaling expressed his gratitude to the Warrnambool City Council for partnering with the state squash association and Warrnambool Action Squash Club to host the silver junior event.
“When we visit regional cities, we like to add as much value as we can for the competitors, as well as for all local players,” Makaling said.
It is anticipated this tournament will continue to be held annually in Warrnambool for the next two years.
Local coaches Jason Bilson, Geoff Harris and Gavin Flett hold regular training sessions with junior members each Monday night.
The Warrnambool-based club has had great support from the Warrnambool Community Development Fund for equipment and facility upgrades to allow easy access for new members.
This has also enabled the club to partner with local schools as part of their sport and recreation programs to hopefully translate this short engagement into long term participation.
Squash & Racquetball Victoria competition coordinator David Cowell said he was pleased with last weekend’s turnout and the standard of matches played.
“Seeing these juniors, from the start of the year to now, showed just how much they’ve improved, and the quality of squash they are playing now is very impressive,” Cowell said.

3x3 coming to Lake Pertobe
AUSTRALIA’S premier 3x3 basketball competition is coming to Warrnambool in December.
The three-day Champions League Basketball event will be held at Lake Pertobe.
The event is a partnership between 3x3 Australia and the Warrnambool City Council, with some of the nation’s top 3x3 players expected to travel to compete.
There will also be loads of opportunities for locals of all abilities to get involved.
As well as senior and junior games, there will be three-point competitions and time for “free shoots”.
An Olympic event since Tokyo 2020, 3x3 basketball also debuted at the Commonwealth Games in 2022 with both the men’s and women’s team winning medals.
Director of Champions League Basketball Matt Hollard said the tournament had been travelling around Australia since 2014.
“We have seen a real growth over the last decade in 3x3 along with some impressive results in the Olympics, Commonwealth Games and Asia Cups from our own Aussie teams,” he said.
“The sport of 3x3 now replaces 5-on-5 in the Commonwealth Games and offers a magnitude of opportunity to play overseas for your city and country.
“Councils and community stakeholders play a big part in what we do, and we are very appreciative of the support we have received over the years.”
Endorsed by FIBA, 3x3 is simple and flexible enough to be played anywhere and by anyone.
All you need is a hoop, a half-court and six players, with Champions League Basketball’s director and head of events and marketing Yvette Williams saying that was a big part of its growth and success.
“Given we can play our major competitions on portable half courts, we can also be creative about where we play,” she said.
“On the water, rooftops and iconic landmarks, we can be as creative as we like, and this year’s Warrnambool
location is no exception as we place our show court on top of the newly established concrete court at Lake Pertobe.
“This will begin our exciting two-year event partnership with the Warrnambool City Council.
“Warrnambool is no stranger to the sport of 3x3 having been an early adopter with one of the very first official 3x3 clubs in Australia (The Warrnambool Storm) operating over the last four years.
“Their elite team has made it as high as the Australian EXE Premier Series in Melbourne and Japan in 2024 and their
grassroots players are developing their skills each school term with their 3x3 Ready coaching program.”
Warrnambool mayor Cr Ben Blain said this would be an exciting addition to the Warrnambool events calendar.
“We built the new half-court basketball area to provide more things to do, especially for older children and adults, in that part of Lake Pertobe, and this event is an extension of that,” he said.
“We’re expecting some top level players to travel to participate, and that’s great for our local economy as well as for spectators.
“The format of the event means that you don’t need to be part of a regular 3x3 team or association to get involved. You can grab a couple of mates and enter, and there will be lots of other activities to take part in.
“So we have an event that’s bringing people into town, creating lots of ways for locals to get involved, and it will be great for spectators.”
The exact tournament dates will be announced soon, with team registrations to open closer to the date at https:// clb3x3.com/events.
Hampden announces interleague coaches
HAMPDEN Football Netball League has announced its coaches for next month’s interleague clash against Ballarat.
The upcoming football matches will be held at Eastern Oval on Friday, July 5.
Leading the charge for the under 23 men’s side will be multiple Hampden League premiership coach, Adam Dowie.
Adam brings a wealth of experience to the role and was a key assistant to AFL greater Jonathan Brown during the 2024 season campaign.
A long-time advocate for representative football, Adam is a passionate and respected figure in the Hampden football community.
Ben Parkinson returns as coach of the under 17 boys’ team for a second consecutive year.
With a strong reputation in junior coaching circles, Ben’s ability to develop and mentor young talent has made him an asset to the league’s pathways programs.
Chris Meade will again lead the under 19 women’s side.
Chris has played a crucial role in the growth and success of the female football program in the region and continues to be a driving force in providing highquality opportunities for young female athletes.
League president Shane Threlfall expressed his enthusiasm about the appointments.
“The league is rapt to have three great football people involved in our representative program,” Threlfall said.
“Adam, Ben and Chris bring not only experience but a deep passion for developing talent and representing our league with pride.”
Threlfall believes interleague football is a fantastic opportunity, not just for players to test themselves against top-tier opposition, but also for coaches to expand their skills and gain experience in a different environment.
“It’s an important part of our league’s commitment to developing football talent at all levels,” he said. Preparations are now well underway, and the Hampden League looks forward to another strong showing across all age groups in what promises to be a showcase of the region’s best talent.
Warrnambool Storm players Arcaim Lallemand and Harry McGorm were keen to show their basketball skills to Warrnambool City Council chief executive officer Andrew Mason, mayor Ben Blain and councillor, Matthew Walsh.
