Gerald Deslandes

B.A. (Cambridge) M.A. (Courtauld) present

Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore - Two of Britain’s Best Loved Sculptors

T

his lecture will describe six similarities and eight differences in the work of Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore. It will examine their early debt to Jacob Epstein and Gaudier-Brzeska, the influence of

Surrealism and Constructivism and their interest in archaeology and in siting sculpture out of doors. It will explore their approach to the themes of the mother and child, the mask and the reclining figure. In addition to looking at the similarities between their works, Gerald Delandes will contrast the monumentality of Moore’s work to the lightness and elegance of Hepworth’s sculpture.

Gerald Deslandes studied art history at Cambridge University and the Courtauld Institute of Art. He worked for nearly 20 years as a curator organizing exhibitions of sculpture by

Editor’s Comments

ello Readers, There is lots of stuff happening as usual and I have run out of room, so some articles, reports and letters had to be put aside for next issue.

When the budget won’t stretch another four pages - yes, it must be in multiples of four - I am not inclined to be financially reckless. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to run on an never ending deficit… like the government does… hmmm?

Planning for the ‘Heritage Fleurieu Coast’ Festival for 2018 is underway and there is a public meeting for interested people to attend see page 26 for details.

The Yankalilla Council have been busy demolishing toilet blocks, among other things and their ‘In The Loop’ section (in the middle) will explain all the finer details.

What else… there’s a new ‘hearing services’ business (back page) among other new ads, Lilla’s Café has a new owner and is now open Wednesdays too, Yankalilla Take Away will serve their 10,000th customer this month and plenty of club news, entertainment and other things to do. Read on!

Until next issue...

Cheers, Paul Jelfs Editor

Strumming For Fun

very second week, Normanville couple Peter and Caroline Cleland travel to Willunga for a ‘strumming session’ with a group of like-minded amateur musicians.

Willunga Ukuleles was formed in February this year

by Convenor, Carolyn Hart and four other founding ‘session leaders’. Carolyn had previously been involved in the formation of informal groups to play at various community events, and this led to the idea of establishing a regular ukulele session for shared learning and enjoyment. A meeting was held late last year to test the level of interest and there are now over 50 people on the Willunga Ukuleles’ mailing list.

Peter and Caroline attended a WEA course at which they made their own instruments from a kit. Like many of the other players, they are on a steep ‘learning curve’, but with support from more experienced players, the journey is a little easier.

Beginner or expert, everyone with a ukulele is welcome at Willunga Ukuleles. Group gatherings are informal and social, with part of the time focussed on helping beginners build their skills and confidence.

Opportunities to play at events and functions are organised to give players who are keen experience at performing in public.

Regular meetings are held at the Alma Hotel, Willunga on the first Thursday and third Wednesday of each

Events at Festival Fleurieu 2017

n four gardens in the Fleurieu landscape Made by Nature where gardens intersect with human aspirations and hard work to create magic spaces, five poets came to enthrall captivated audiences.

Two from Adelaide, one from the Hills and two locals selected their poetry and writings to work with the theme of nature of landscape and of human relations.

While the first reading at Martin Road was held in autumn sunshine (see photo), the next in Brook Place had to be moved from the promised walled courtyard to inside where Mike Ladd entranced the brave crowd who had come despite the rain.

Threatening clouds above Daniels Road did not deter the full house who had been lured by the wit and wisdom of the much loved Kate Lewellwyn. Placing faith in weather gods, two poets, Kate Alder and Chris Battams stood boldly among the olive trees in the aptly named Coast View Court to share their literary energies.

Garden Poetry at the The Books and Words Weatherstones: Rachael Mead Group, delighted with the festival turn out held an event at Inman Valley in May: Sunset Sharing. Watch for more events as autumn becomes winter.

Become a B&W member at the Visitor Information Centre.

Robin Hood

or Families we offer you Robin Hood on Sunday 16th July. It will be a great event with loads of fun to entertain children during the ‘winter’ school holidays.

This laugh-a-minute Pantomime will have you singing along with wonderful songs, cheering the hero’s and booing the villains. Come and join in the fun with fabulous characters; Maid Marion, Friar Tuck, Robin Hood, the Evil Prince John and more.

New Sign At Op Shop

T

he Op shop is sporting a new sign kindly erected by our very friendly and capable Men’s Shed members. We encourage people to come in and experience the “Op Shop Magic” to which our sign refers.

Mad May promotion was a hit with items at ½ price on Mondays and Wednesdays and keen shoppers making the most of the bargains. Customers also enjoyed the Sausage Sizzles and the Mother’s Day chocolates.

June will be an exciting month too as we are encouraging customers to comment on our new sign or give us some suggestions on what you would like to see happen in our Op Shop.

People who take the time to comment will receive a “two for the price of one” offer.

Donations are gratefully accepted so if you are having a clean-up, then come down with your extra items and donate.

You might find something to buy and take home! We are especially looking for fresh bric-a-brac, crockery, trinkets, jewellery and vases.

Thanks Alan!

lan and Hillary Ossit have worked hard producing our delicious Thursday BBQ’s for over a year now and it is with much regret that we have to say goodbye to Alan who is retiring for health reasons. Alan has done a great job choosing and cooking the meat and he is also handy in the kitchen with salads and his cheesecakes are to die for! Not sure how we can manage without his cheesecakes. As well as prepare the monthly BBQ Alan has cooked for several Gourmet BBQ’s and some fundraising Full English Breakfasts and he will be really missed.

Thank you Alan for all your good work.

Yankalilla Men’s Shed

he members of the Men's Shed must surely be approaching (if not already there) the rank of best sausageers in the district. There must be something there, for over the couple of days of Open Shed there was an increase in membership by 14%, and a lady who, after enquiring about the Shed annual fees proclaimed that "it would be worth a dollar a week to keep her husband out from under her feet."they then bought two sausages!

Winter Bowls

ednesday and Saturday starting at 10.30am. Enquiries to Bev Bowyer (85582204) or Park and Joan Fogarty (85582575). All new bowlers, regulars and visitors welcome.

Enough of the jesting, an equally gratifying outcome of the day was the huge amount of interest caused. The ten or so Shed members present on the day were flat out answering questions and explaining the purposes of the Men's shed organisation, it is a certainty that Shed numbers will swell. During the Fleurieu Festival a display of the 'Shed members' handiwork created much interest and comment.

You have undoubtedly noticed the amount of thank yous in the Men's Shed articles, well that has been for a very good and very simple reason - we have been given a lot. Most recently the Lion's Club of Yankalilla presented the Men's Shed with a cheque to purchase cordless tools, which apart from many other reasons will promote safety in the workplace. Thank you Lions, your generosity is appreciated. As is the belief in us shown by the community.

If you have been to the Surf Club's outside area recently you might have noticed some new furniture - more of Men's Shed's handiwork.

In case you have forgotten, the Men's Shed is at the back of the Club Fleurieu, so if the sign is at the drive the blokes are in the shed and the kettle is boiling, love to see you.

Yankalilla Mens Probus Club

e had a good turnout ( over 80%) of members at our May meeting.

The club’s objective is to stimulate thought, interest and participation in activities at a time of life when it is easy to become complacent and self absorbed. We are pleased that members consider that the club fulfils some of these aims.

Our guest speaker was David Batt who has recently retired to Normanville.

David spoke about the last 30 years when he was involved in casino management.

He spent 10 years in Perth then another 10 years in Sydney. In Sydney he crossed paths with the formidable Kerry Packer whose gambling excesses and generosity were legendary.

The final 10 years were spent in Macau the gambling capital of Asia.

Gambling is officially illegal in mainland China. Macau is the only Chinese territory where it is legal to gamble in casinos. There gambling is the key channel for money laundering and capital flight. The city is often referred to as the “ Macau Laundry Service” Although the casino where David

worked was one of the smaller ones the daily turnover was US$25 to 30 million. With all this cash sloshing around it was no wonder that corruption, organized crime and money laundering were rampant. Most of the revenue comes from the high rollers who wager enormous sums in VIP rooms and play around the clock.

The casino had to keep watch on the casino staff as well as the gamblers who tried all sorts of creative scams.

Such scams included introducing new cards into the game and using miniature cameras embedded in card shuffling machines.

Although David and his wife found living in Macau to be an interesting experience it had its downsides. The air pollution was horrific and they were repulsed by the Chinese habit of spitting everywhere.

David’s motto is “ Be kind to your mother and don’t gamble” The talk gave us an insight into a new world and way of life.

Our next meeting is at 10am on Tuesday 6th June at the RSL hall, Normanville.

Investigator College

n the streets of Cebu City, a young mother pats down the thin cardboard sheets she is preparing for her three children to sleep on for the night. She uses the same care we would use to prepare our beds.

For her and her children, this is home and she gratefully and humbly accepts the ‘lugaw’ our team offers her.

Whether it is the elderly man unable to rise from the footpath, the young mother cradling her young child, or the hundreds of others who call the streets home, the sights and sounds of those who are ignored and overlooked demand nothing of us. Their smiles, words of thanks, concern for others and kindness challenge all of us to reflect deeply on what it is to be human.

Our team of 12 witnessed these scenes repeatedly.

Whether it was at the day camps we facilitated, the street feeding we participated in, the prison we visited or the worship we shared, what we left with far surpassed what we brought to offer them.

We want to give a huge thank you to the community for the thousands they raised to support Investigator Colleges’ partnership with the International Gospel Centre - South East Asia.

Students on the 2017 Mission Experience and local Cebu youth who participated in the day camp programs.

SAPSASA Netball Champions

T

he first day of Term 2 welcomed the annual SAPSASA Netball Carnival at the Victor Harbor Netball Courts. Our College fielded a team in Division 1 and Division 2.

Our Division 1 team went through the carnival undefeated beating Victor Harbor R-7 School 6 goals to 5 in the Grand Final. Our Division 2 team finished a very credible 6th out of 8.

Yankalilla coach Claire Ellis, after coaching our Div 2 team in 2016, took on the job of defending our 2016 Div 1 premiers title and was an amazing coach.

Traditionally the first game is the trickiest game as our girls from different campuses take a game to 'get used to how each other play'. Today was no different with the first game against Encounter Lutheran College being a very close game with Investigator scraping through to win 3 goals to 2.

We found form against Yankalilla Area School thrashing them 18 goals to 1. At half-time against our third game, Victor, scores were tied 4 all. After the break Investigator trounced Victor 13 to 4. Our semifinal against Eastern Fleurieu School was very tightly contested with the girls triumphing 5 to 1. The Grand Final against Victor was again tied at half-time at 2 apiece. The teams went goal for goal in the second half with Investigator finishing 1 goal ahead. There were eight schools in Div 1.

Many thanks to students Eliana Le Quesne (Year 9) and Kaya Angus (Year 10) for their willingness to umpire, using the skills they have developed through the Goolwa Netball Club. They were superb representatives of the College!

Again, thanks to Claire and Cassie and to the many parents who came to support our two teams. Very well done!

Anzac Day Thoughts

How many more rituals at war memorials will it take?

And images of crosses in green fields, grainy films of young bodies lying mutilated.

How many broken families welcoming home coffins instead of young men?

And how many more unhinged leaders with overinflated egos will be voted into power by gullible followers?

What exactly will it take for wars to become a thing of the past?

Or do we have to wait for the final one when wars of words move to the next level and there will be no more .....

he District Council of Yankalilla is proposing a T change in name to Yankalilla District Council.

What a blatant waste of money and resources. All

district signs, letter heads, logos on vehicles etc. will have to be changed plus time spent by admin staff in accomplishing these changes. The biggest disincentive to encouraging more permanent residents and business to this area is the ridiculously high council rates, and a lowering or stabilising of rates will not be accomplished by the implementation of such hair brain schemes. This will do nothing to raise the council’s image, and I’m sure the majority of rate payers would rather have their funds spent on essential services such as road and footpath maintenance.

Festival Fleurieu bringing the Fleurieu Alive

he Festival Fleurieu has again exceeded all T expectations, with our community coming alive in an exhilarating fashion. It was a huge effort from not

just the organisers but the whole Fleurieu community. I would like to extend my heart-felt thanks and congratulations to all for their involvement.

When you have a traffic jam in Normanville you know that our region is truly busy! Wherever you went there were lots of people enjoying the very best of the district. I attended about 15 events and my wife Joy got to about 30. We were blown away by the calibre of what we saw. I commend the organisers for harnessing the talents of our local artists in such an accessible way.

Normanville Sailing Club Season End

T

he 2016/17 Season ended as it began with alternating good and poor weather right up to the last race on April 30th. Overall however, a very successful season with several new members adding both catamarans and a monohull to the fleet.

Easter Sunday saw kind weather for - the big event – the race around the wave generator which was enjoyed by all available members and visitors alike. The final day’s sailing started in marginal conditions with ten boats braving choppy seas and the wintery conditions for race one. By the start of race two, things had calmed considerably making for a very good end of season event. Last but not least, it was all back to George’s place for the end of year BBQ where the club’s usual good natured camaraderie and interesting mix of people capped off a very good year.

Next season, any one wanting to give sailing a go or socialize at day’s end, are welcome to; Contact Brian Matthews (0402340029) have a look at us on Facebook or turn up at the Normanville beach on any fine and breezy Sunday afternoon during the sailing season.

The Wheat Era

found the article by Rob Fairchild in the May edition of Yankalilla Regional News fascinating, informative and enjoyable.

In the 20 years we lived in the Bald Hills area the legacy of the wheat era interested me. The ploughing method creating lands described by Rob is historical

O

and was used in England and other agricultural areas in South Australia on sloping land. The furrows created were one Chain (22 yards) apart and were one Furlong (10 chains) long which meant that each land had an area of 10 square chains or 1 acre. Traditionally, this was considered the area one man could plough with a single furrow plough pulled by a single ox in a day.

The population exodus from the Bald Hills area was complete by the early 1880s when the support workers such as the harness maker, the black smith and the wheel right followed the growers especially to southern Yorke Peninsula where the addition of super phosphate had improved the productivity of that land.

They left many houses unoccupied, the shop closed, the plans for a school were abandoned, the 3 churches no longer had sustainable congregations.

The land holders who remained consolidated the smaller holdings to viable pastoral holdings which lasted for most of the twentieth century.

Bruce Burford, Yankalilla

Yankalilla Ladies Probus

ur guest speaker for today was Pam Batt who presented an amazing talk about her career. Pam has worked for a range of organisations including Casinos and huge hotel complexes in a variety of different settings both in Australia, overseas in Macau and the Philippines.

Pam described in detail how she has been working designing garments, specifically uniforms, developing her management skills and taking responsibility for managing the design, colour, production, organisation and care of many different kinds of uniforms. Many uniforms have to comply with the décor of the building and need replacing when a place is refurbished. She amazed us with the statistics of simply how many uniforms are required by hotel and Casino staff. How she managed the ordering of uniforms, the management of seamstresses who could alter uniforms to fit staff and the computerised management of the storage of staff uniforms and laundry systems.

Staff who work in a Casino for example may wear a different uniform for different tasks or different shifts.

Each worker would have an ID card which could identify them and automatically select their uniform from an automated conveyor belt. Pam was instrumental in updating the computerised system for one company she worked for. Workers would have a locker to store their own clothes while on shift and would place their uniform in a laundry chute at the end of their shift. No uniforms would be allowed to be worn outside the building for security reasons. This was particularly true with Casinos where tight security is essential.

The life time of a uniform varies and depends upon the fabric used, the number of times worn and number of times laundered. A uniform which is laundered daily has a shorter life span than one which can be worn for two days. Pam developed great skill in selecting material for the uniforms, fabric samples coming from China, India and Japan, Vietnam and Thailand also getting into the market.

Natural fibres are not so good for frequent laundering and modern fabrics such as polyester are proving superior. Advance technology is producing garments which resemble wool and silk but are actually 100% polyester.

Part of Pam’s role was to check the quality control of garments made. This involved visiting factories which entailed crossing the border from Macau into China.

Tall seven story high buildings with no lift were

frequently visited. Each floor of the building would be designed towards the production of a part of a garment.

For example, the top floor would house the grey yarn which was dyed black. Thousands of metres of material would be housed to make 3,000 pairs of black trousers. One bolt of material would equal 200 metres.

The cutting of trousers is computerised with 20 to 30 layers of fabric cut out together. Next floor down would house sewing machines where female workers would sew the back seam only. Next floor down the side seam would be sewn, next floor down the waist band or if making shirts, the collar or sleeve, or cuff.

Each floor would hold many workers, all working for 10 hours per day, 6 days per week on a specific task.

Finally towards the ground floor, the garments would be finished off which included buttons and button holes, shoulder pads, pressing, then down to quality control and packing.

Workers would be provided with living quarters adjacent to the building where nine people would share a small room, sleeping in triple bunks. Their pay would be AU$75 per week for a 60 hour week. The Government provided an allocation of rice per worker which was often eaten while working. There were no married quarters and no such thing as a meal break.

Leave to visit parents or children was restricted to once a year at New Year.

Between 2006 and 2016 the conditions improved and costs doubled.

Young Chinese people today are less willing to accept such pay and conditions as they are often better educated and able to access schooling outside the country which may in the future result in dramatic changes work conditions.

Our thanks to Pam for her talk about her life which was for many of us, a light into an industry many of us are quite ignorant about.

Wildlife Of Greater Adelaide

oin us on Thursday 22nd June for an J evening with James Smith, author of Wildlife of Greater Adelaide, as he talks

about the history and content of the book and shares some of the stories of the animals found within the book.

The Wildlife of Greater Adelaide is the most comprehensive wildlife book ever published about Adelaide. It covers the Mount Lofty – Kangaroo Island region, one of 15 diversity rich areas across Australia. The book is over 450 pages with 11 chapters on identification including a list of 468 species and over 470 photographs collected over a two year period. There are chapters on worms, molluscs, crustaceans, arachnids, myriapods, insects, fishes, frogs, reptiles, birds and mammals.

James Smith was enthralled by animals from a young age. Trained as a zoologist, work and personal interest had led him to seek intriguing wildlife across Australia and around the globe.

For almost a decade James has run FauNature, a company dedicated to assisting people in attracting and engaging with local wildlife. He also works at the Discovery Centre at the

South Australian Museum identifying specimens for the public, educating them on their finds and inspiring others to learn more about local species. James is fascinated by our fauna whether it crawls, walks, swims, runs or flies and encourages greater understanding and conservation of our remarkable native wildlife, whether they are found in a world-renowned national park or your own backyard.

Second Valley Working Bee

o you have a couple of spare hours at 10 am on Wednesday 14th June to join us at the War Memorial at Second Valley for a working bee which will include planting and cleaning up the site? The newly formed Second Valley Environmental Care Group with the District Council of Yankalilla is revegetating the area around the War Memorial for the WW1 Monument Centenary Event on Saturday 23rd September. A delicious hot lunch will be provided. If you can attend or would like to be involved and included on the mailing list please contact Sue or David Speck at specks@ozemail.com.au.

daunting this time, try the TOP 4 challenge (plastic bags, bottles, takeaway coffee cups & straws).

The Rules

1. Attempt to refuse single-use plastic during July.

2. Remember it's not going to be easy! It is a challenge, not a competition so don't worry about being perfect.

3. Collect any unavoidable single-use plastic you buy. Keep in a dilemma bag and share it with us at the end of the challenge.

It's up to you regarding how long you participate. You might decide to go plastic-free for a day, a week, a month or longer! However long you choose will still make a contribution.

Why you should participate

Apart from the small amount of plastic which has been incinerated EVERY piece of plastic which was ever produced still exists on earth somewhere. In the first 10 years of this century MORE plastic was produced than the entire last century!

Australians send 1 million tonnes of plastic waste to landfill each year. Do your part to make a change.

Why use something for a few seconds that is going to spend the rest of your life trying to break down in landfill? We really need to change our habits.

Weed Of The Month from Cape Jervis Coastal Community Group Lavender (Lavandula species) (Photos: E. Cousins; 3 small plants along a walking trail, leaf and flower of French Lavender) ardy lavenders are plentiful in our gardens, particularly the English and French varieties. They may have self-seeded in your garden, which is great, but they also self-seed in bushland, with seeds carried on boots, or by wind, etc… not so great! The first photo above shows three healthy seedlings on the edge of a walking trail, over about 1 metre of path.

inhabit urban parks, golf courses, school grounds and backyards. Small numbers are even able to exploit the inner city and occupy human dwellings.

Mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs, fishes, insects, spiders, crustaceans, snails and worms are amongst the diverse array of wildlife described and displayed within these pages. Emphasis has been placed on the most common, well-known or potentially dangerous species recorded across the region.

The Wildlife of Greater Adelaide is the most comprehensive wildlife guide to the Greater Adelaide region and is a must-have addition for anyone interested in our local wildlife. Whether you are simply looking to identify the wild neighbours with which you share your own backyard or you are a seasoned naturalist looking to further expand your knowledge, this book is the perfect companion.

The Adelaide and Mount Lofty Ranges region is recognised nationally and internationally for its faunal diversity, which is, for the most part, abundant and accessible. Wildlife communities are found here that occur nowhere else on earth.

A rich collection of animal species can be seen in the region’s conservation parks and large bush blocks in the Adelaide Hills, and along watercourses to the coastal dunes and beaches. While the greatest variety exists in the natural and bushland areas, many species

Newly formed Second Valley Environmental Care Group any of you have driven past the IyoufSecond Valley War Memorial lately will have noticed big changes to the

landscape. In response to community requests to clean up the reserve prior to the centenary celebrations on the 23rd September the council has cleared a large area around the war memorial, revealing the extent of the surrounding reserve.

It is the intention to include this reserve, with its lovely views to the sea and across the old village and springs, in the Heritage Walking Trail. A path will be laid from the northern end across the reserve to link up with the War Memorial.

Normanville Natural Resources Centre is supporting the formation of a new volunteer group at Second Valley to augment the council’s work. There will be a planting and clean up working bee held at the site on the 14th June at 10am with soup for lunch supplied in the hall afterwards.

We will be doing some clean-up work informally before that date.

Stage 1 of the revegetation will concentrate around the war memorial so that it looks good for the centenary celebrations in September.

Some of the plant species selected include: Correas, dianella, saltbushes, daisy bush, dodonia (Hop Bush), tea

tree, drooping she oak, rock wattle, you will find these, and others like them in the booklet “Coastal Gardens”. The booklet has pictures and description of both the weeds removed and the local natives to be planted and is available from the council office and Normanville Natural Resource Centre for free.

If you wish to be involved please contact Sue or David Speck on specks@ozemail.com.au or 0448438974. Or drop in and register your interest at the Normanville Natural Resources Centre.

If you wish to be included on our mailing list, please leave your details with us and we will keep you informed.

that will be created both on stage and on digital video – possibly for television, as well as the internet. The latter project is envisaged overall as a ‘Shakespearian’ counter-narrative, now titled Shakespeare’s Secret and inspired by American author John Hudson’s (2014) book Shakespeare’s Dark Lady – Amelia Bassano Lanier: The Woman Behind the Shakespeare Plays?

John Hudson’s well-researched book certainly puts forward a compelling case for the author of the cannon being a new candidate – Amelia Bassano Lanier, who was the mistress of the Tudor court’s Lord Henry Hunson: the Lord Chamberlain and the man in charge of English theatre during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. The idea that Shakespeare (as we think we know him) did not write the cannon of works attributed to his name is not new. Various authors including: The Earl of Oxford Edward de Vere, Christopher Marlowe, Sir Francis Bacon, William Stanley the 6th Earl of Derby, the Earl of Rutland, Mary Sidney, the Countess of Pembroke, Henry Neville, Thomas Sackville, and even Queen Elizabeth I, have been at various times proposed as the actual authors of the plays and poetry published under the name ‘William Shakespeare’.

Post-Festival Fleurieu, Sealand’s artistic director Dr Kathryn Pentecost will finally have time to return to her unfinished play, and to work on some short filmic narratives – in the form of monologues and duologues.

One of Sealand’s actors is also a great fan of ‘the

Pentecost is now seeking additional cast members who have the linguistic skills and confidence to participate in her new project. For further details, serious contenders can contact her on 0457.863.272 to arrange an audition.

ealand Theatre would like to thank all its actors, S crew, supporters, sponsors, venue hosts and raffle prize donors (including Jane Mitchell and Alan Grieg

of Leonards Mill, Sahil Chaturvedi from Wirrina Cove Resort and the District Council of Yankalilla), who helped us to create two very successful events for Festival Fleurieu 2017: A Mad Tea Party – staged at Leonards Mill on Wednesday 19 April and Alice’s Grand Ball – the official festival closing event staged at Wirrina Cove Resort on Saturday 29 April. Both events had capacity crowds and positive feedback about the unique combination of elements. Special thanks go to Geoff Bromilow: without his practical, emotional and financial assistance the events would not have been possible.

Yankalilla Football Club ell so far this season we have W played four games and have won three. The first again Myponga/Sellicks

Beach resulted in a win 87 to 46 and saw the Whittlesea Cup returned to Yankalilla. This year also has seen a new medal (in memory of Lew Whittlesea who passed away earlier) presented to the ‘Best on the Ground’ for the day as judged by the three umpires. This resulted in the medal being presented to very popular Yank player in Josh Sidebottom. The next round saw us playing Victor Harbor at Victor where we were again winners 123 to 48 with Yankalilla kicking 10 goals in the first quarter, leaving a huge amount for Victor to catch up. Round three we were up against Goolwa/Pt Elliot and this again resulted in a win to Yankalilla 81 to 40. In all games the boys played good, hard, football with Joel Whittlesea shining in the ruck.

Following this game we drew our large raffle, the first money raising function for the year and the winners were: 1st Anne Heyward ($700 meat tray) 2nd Karen Hutchinson (Weber Q) and 3rd J Wilson (1 dozen red wines) the winner who sold the winning ticket was Mildred. Our next challenge was against Willunga, who like us had not lost a game. Unfortunately these guys were bigger, taller and a bit better than us, winning the game 94 to 67. Watch out

Keeping Fit: Lateral Squat Jump

he Lateral Squat Jump is an exercise T which combines the leg and hip strength from 'Sit 2 stand', the balance

from 'lateral leg raise' and then adds a cardiovascular element.

Not all movements in life are forwards or backwards.

Lateral movements (sideways) are great at encouraging balance as well as strength in the ankles.

1. On a level and safe surface, find a line or a marker you can use as a centre point.

2. Stand with feet wide apart, your left foot (inside foot) aligned with the line.

3. Lower yourself into a half squat,

keeping your chest up, bottom out and weight through your heels.

4. With a small sideways jump to the left (enough for you feet to be just off the ground) aim for your right foot to replace the left foot on the line.

5. The next squat and jump is to the www.positive-change.com.au right with the left foot back on the line.

6. You repeat this for a count of 10-20 into account an individuals limitations jumps per set. Start with small and slow or needs. Seek a medical opinion to see lateral jumps as the wider and faster you if this exercise is appropriate for you. move your feet the harder it becomes.

Positive Change Personal Training As always what has been suggested is encouraging you to be active beyond the general information and doesn't take short term.

Yankalilla Historical Society For transport and farming… horses were integral with development orses have played an important role in the H development of colonial Australia, especially in providing transport, and in farm work, pulling

implements and operating machinery. As the colony developed, and motor vehicles replaced horses in many instances, they also became a means of recreation and sport.

Colonel William Light, the first surveyor-general for the Colony of South Australia, first came ashore on the mainland at Rapid Bay in 1836. He walked from Second Valley to Yankalilla and, after spending about a week surveying and exploring the land, he liked what he saw – there was fresh water, plenty of grass and good soil.

Soon after, 80-acre sections were surveyed in 1838, with settlers taking up land from 1840 at a cost of £1 an acre. Sheep and dairy farming, and cropping, followed.

When Governor Grey arrived in 1841 to replace Governor Gawler, South Australia was in a financiallydistressed state; he was obliged to borrow £3000 from New South Wales to continue funding the colony.

Many people were drawn to the country from Adelaide and turned to farming to recover some of their losses in land speculation and to feed their families. One of the first to take up land at Yankalilla was Irishman Henry Kemmis who chose Section 1182 and Section 1181 the following year, when he moved from Adelaide with his family.

Transport of goods was mainly by sea initially, as the only alternative was a gruelling trek by bullock wagon over the range to Adelaide.

George Worthington, a London barrister, who was granted land in 1842, had brought a carriage and pair of horses with him from England. He attempted to drive to Yankalilla. But there were no roads or bridges and he got as far as Sturt Creek when he capsized and went back to Adelaide. He returned later by bullock wagon.

Having spent a lot of money in the colony, his section 1180 passed to Thomas Willson in 1855 and he returned to England.

A mail service was officially established in Yankalilla in 1842 with the appointment of Mr JC Boord as Postmaster. A year later there was a regular fortnightly mail service between Adelaide and Yankalilla.

Initially bullocks were used for clearing or ploughing the land, and seed was sown by hand, then harrows dragged over the paddock by a team. By 1844, wheat crops predominated. Although barley, oats, potatoes, beans, flax, maize and tobacco were also grown, as well as household vegetable gardens, the area surrounding Yankalilla became one of the major sources of wheat for the colony.

Before the invention of the Ridley stripper in 1845, wheat was harvested by scythe and then trampled by horses’ hooves on a hard surface to separate the grain from the stalks. Later a horse was yoked to a roller and walked around a circular stone to grind the grain.

By 1854, Yankalilla had 500 inhabitants, two steam

flourmills, two hotels and two stores. The post office was at Mr Heathcote’s store.

Before jetties were built, small boats were used which could stand upright; they would come to the beach on high tide, anchor, and when the tide receded, a bullock dray would pull alongside to load or unload goods.

After a jetty built at the mouth of the Bungala River was washed away in floodwaters in 1856, a new jetty was constructed in 1859 a little further north and a horse-drawn tramway operated through the sandhills between the jetty and the storage sheds.

The original track for early bullock drivers wound through trees from Adelaide, over Sturt Creek, the Onkaparinga, Pedler’s Creek and others, before arriving at the foot of Mt Terrible near Sellicks Hill. As this was a steep ascent and descent, an automatic brake had to be added to the dray or wagon in the form of a log attached by chains parallel to the axle. When the bullocks needed a spell on the steep incline, the vehicle would roll back onto the log and remain stationary.

When the Victory Road was formed around the eastern slopes of Sellicks Hill, completed in 1859, this enabled horse-drawn coaches to operate although there was initially a ford across the Bungala River, not replaced by a bridge until 1869.

By 1860 Rounsevell’s Coach Service ran twice a week from Adelaide to Talisker, later extended to Kingscote when the Christie family began operating an open boat from Cape Jervis to Penneshaw.

In order to water the coach horses, the Council installed a trough on Clarke’s Hill, midway between Yankalilla and Myponga. The trough was adzed out of the trunk of a large gum tree from George Hunt’s property and carted into position by Reuben Eatts. Water was piped to it from a nearby spring.

With the introduction of regular coach services light draught horses were needed so some settlers began breeding them, as faster travelling required horses to be changed more often. Mr Arthur Waterhouse was one such farmer who began breeding horses when he bought Manna Farm originally owned by Henry Kemmis.

Horses also provided power to the local blacksmith, turning lathes to repair and make farm machinery and implements. Three generations of Bowells conducted this business for more than 60 years in Yankalilla before transferring the business to J Barton & Sons in 1914.

A good team could cover 10 miles an hour. Additional changing stations came near the Victory Hotel at the foot of Sellicks Hill and at Myponga near Mrs Putland’s eating house, where passengers could have a hot evening meal for only one shilling and sixpence.

Normanville was the final changing station before the 20 miles of rough road to Talisker. Rounsevell sold out his business to Cobb & Co in the mid-1860s.

Dinham Brothers, storekeepers of Normanville attempted an opposition service at the request of some locals but Cobb & Co, having the lucrative mail contract, could afford to cut fares and the travellers instead of the promised patronage chose the cheaper fares and Dinham’s enterprise failed.

Horse-drawn coach services continued through to the early 1900s. Operators included Fred Martin in the 1880s, James J James in the 1890s, along with George

Lowe, Bill Cliff and Philip Couchman. However, Philip was badly injured while harnessing a young horse at the Noarlunga Hotel and he was pinned between the shafts and a water trough, and subsequently died in hospital.

A Mr Evans held a fund-raiser for his widow and family who then went to live at Willunga where Mrs Couchman’s sisters lived.

In the early 1900s Andrew Hutchinson became the proprietor of the mail and carrying business between Normanville and Adelaide, operating two mail vans, driven by himself and his brother Fred. They travelled once a week to Adelaide and back. Their covered vans carrying dairy produce inside, crates of poultry slung underneath, hares and rabbits hung along the sides, were delivered to the Newmarket Hotel at the northern end of West Terrace opposite the saleyards. Trolleys were used for taking livestock to the abattoirs and saleyards. A team of eight draught horses hauled a wagon of heavy goods. Vehicles usually left Normanville between 5 and 6pm and travelled all night to be in Adelaide for the early market the next morning.

Teams were changed four times during the trip. The terminus in Adelaide was the Shakespeare Hotel, Currie Street, run by Anna Dixon. Overnight feed for the horses was one shilling. The stables at Normanville were at the old St James Church of England.
